The atmosphere of the meal was inexplicably heavy, but Jian Ai felt that the distance between her and Brother Wu Bi had shortened.
She said everything she needed to say and encouraged Brother Wu Bi to take that step bravely.
As for what Brother Wu Bi would do, Jian Ai believed he would figure it out.
In the taxi on the way back, Jian Ai was looking out of the window at the neon lights in a daze. She seemed to still be in the same mood from the restaurant just now. She continued to be sad for Brother Wu Bi and Uncle Wu.
The sound of the phone pulled Jian Ai’s thoughts back. Jian Ai came back to her senses and took it out. It was Ji Haoyu.
Pressing the call button, Jian Ai said in a low voice, “It’s so late. What’s the matter?”
On the other end of the phone, Ji Haoyu could hear the dispiritedness in Jian Ai’s tone. He couldn’t help but quickly ask with concern, “What’s wrong? You don’t sound happy!”
Jian Ai was not in the mood to talk and laugh with Ji Haoyu. When she heard this, she said, “I knew nothing good would happen once I meet you. After drinking with you last night, my head was about to explode today. Ji Haoyu, do you think you’re a jinx? I treated you to a meal at such a high-class place, but we could still drink fake alcohol!”
Ji Haoyu’s breathing stopped. In the next second, he blurted out, “You have a headache too?”
“Nonsense. My head hurt so badly!” Jian Ai said unhappily.
Ji Haoyu smiled instead of being angry. “Heh, it’s the same for me today. I slept until noon in a daze. My head felt like an atomic bomb had exploded in the afternoon. I drank more than you, so I must be in more pain than you.”
...
“We’re going through thick and thin together, right?”
“We can only enjoy life together. Who wants to go through thick and thin with you?!” Jian Ai rolled her eyes and asked, “What happened? If not, I’m hanging up. I’m annoyed.”
“There’s something. Look at you. You don’t have any patience for me,” Ji Haoyu said aggrievedly. “I think of you for everything good. Can’t you treat me better?”
Jian Ai’s heart sank. She thought of the project Ji Haoyu gave her and felt a little better. “I’m not targeting you. I’m not in a good mood.”

“What’s wrong?” Ji Haoyu suddenly sat up straight and asked with concern, “What happened?”
“It’s not my business. Don’t worry.” Jian Ai knew that Wu Bi and Ji Haoyu knew each other, but this was Brother Wu Bi’s secret. She couldn’t possibly turn around and tell others. She immediately urged Ji Haoyu, “Tell me what happened on your end.”
Ji Haoyu paused for a moment before slowly saying, “It’s nothing important. It’s just that my grandfather announced today that I’ll officially take over the Ji Group next week. I wanted to share it with you.”
Jian Ai was stunned. She leaned against the car door and straightened her body. “This is a good thing. Congratulations.”
Jian Ai’s congratulations were sincere. Ji Haoyu could feel it and couldn’t help but laugh. “Are you happy for me?”
“Yes, this is a big deal. The new CEO of the number one financial group in Asia is worth being happy about.” Jian Ai’s tone softened.
Ji Haoyu struck while the iron was hot. “What do you mean? Shouldn’t you help me celebrate such an important matter?”
“I’m afraid of drinking fake alcohol,” Jian Ai said half-jokingly.
“No, no. How could we be so unlucky to encounter fake alcohol this time?” Ji Haoyu said, “I’ll arrange it this time. It’s absolutely safe!”
