Bai Yixuan's voice, although still consistently gentle, was laden with thick anticipation that made it hard to directly refuse.
In fact, Ling Chuxia often dined with Bai Yixuan, and having a meal wasn't a big deal. However, his invitation today felt very formal.
Ling Chuxia's delicate brows furrowed slightly as she couldn't help but ask, "Brother Xuan, are the things you want to talk about very important?"
"Mm, very important." There was no hesitation in Bai Yixuan's voice, and he sounded very serious.
Ling Chuxia paused for a moment. It was rare for Bai Yixuan to be so serious, and she simply couldn't refuse. In the end, she responded with a hum, "Alright then."
As she uttered those three words, it was clear that Bai Yixuan on the other end of the line breathed a sigh of relief. However, the hand that Shi Che was holding suddenly inflicted a pang of pain, causing her to cry out unconsciously.
"What happened?" Bai Yixuan's concerned voice came through again.
