Yin Shaojie laughed and rolled his eyes at Nimo, saying, âWhat unspeakable things? I only went to the casino with some friends and just happened to run into you. Now that I think about it, itâs a really ill-fated relationship.â
Mu Xiaoxiao was intrigued by what he said. âThen tell me quickly how you two met. I really wanna know!â
Yin Shaojie pushed her nose, deliberately changing the subject, saying, âDid you forget our reason for coming to America? Hurry up and eat. We donât have much time left.â
âWhat do you mean we donât have much time?â Mu Xiaoxiao asked.
Annoyed, Yin Shaojie said, âHave you forgotten? When William called earlier, he said something very important. If we donât hurry up our trip here will be wasted. â
âWhat important thing?â Mu Xiaoxiao asked before remembering Ye Sijue and Mo Xiaomeng. âOh, right!â
Her friend was her priority. In any case, she could just find some other time to interrogate Yin Shaojie.
âHurry up and eat. Once youâre done, Iâll tell you when we go back to the room,â said Him Shaojie.
âOkay!â Mu Xiaoxiao nodded. Hearing that, she began to eat quickly.
Feng Tianqi wanted to ask them what they were up to but he decided against it.
Nimo gave Yin Shaojie a furtive thumbs up.
Impressive. His cover was about to be blown wide open, but he still managed to stop it.
Mu Xiaoxiao was worried about Xiaomeng, so she ate very quickly. After a few minutes she said that she was full.
Yin Shaojie raised his hand, signalling to the waiter that they were ready for the bill.
Nimo chuckled and said, âLet me treat. At least let me be a good host.â
Yin Shaojie nodded and did not bother with exchanging courtesies. âThank you. Thereâs something we have to attend to. See.youâ
There was no time to rebuke Nimo for scaring Xiaoxiao. He would deal with him next time.
However, Nimo was not one to give up so easily.
Nimo called for the bill and said to Yin Shaojie, âAre you guys going somewhere later? Do you need my help?â
âNo need. This matter is regarding another friend,â Yin Shaojie said, giving him a look. Then he got up with Mu Xiaoxiao to leave.
Yin Shaojie paused for a moment. He looked to Feng Tianqi and warned him, âBe careful of him.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWhat do you mean by that?â Feng Tianqi didnât understand him.
Nimo was using his card to pay the bill with the waiter.
Yin Shaojie said in a low voice, âHe is bi.â
With that said, he took Mu Xiaoxiao and left.
Bi?
Who was he referring to?
Feng Tianqi was stunned for a moment before catching on. He looked at Nimo sitting next to him, who had just finished paying the bill, and turned back. Nimo smiled at him and asked, âWhat about you? Where are you going? Should I give you a lift?â
Feng Tianqi shuddered. He immediately realized why he had felt that sense of uneasiness earlier.
âNo need!â he said quickly. He bolted out of the restaurant as if he were afraid of catching some terrible virus.
Nimo smiled as he watched Feng Tianqi leave.
