An hour later, the dinner finally came to an end. Yu Qi and Long Hui stood up to take their leave.
"Senior Brother Xia, come over to our place for lunch tomorrow. I will cook a big feast for you." Yu Qi said before departing. "Oh, and we also have important matters to discuss."
"Mhm... I will be there." Qin Xia nodded without hesitation.
Hearing their exchange, Shen Wangjing instantly felt a surge of panic, worrying that Yu Qi was actively plotting to steal his potential business deal right out from under his nose.
Shen Quoxi harboured similar fears, convinced that Yu Qi would speak ill of her during their private lunch to make Qin Xia despise her even more. She could not allow that to happen.
"Can I come along as well?" Shen Quoxi asked shamelessly, attempting to force her way into the lunch invitation.
"NO!" Both Long Hui and Qin Xia barked out simultaneously, rejecting her request in unison without a shred of hesitation.
