Daddy Always Gets Jealous

Ye Bai thought about Jin Bo, whose name was only an alias, but still disliked lying, ”I have no obligation to answer you.”

Huo Jinnan took a drag on his cigarette, looking down at the team leader for a moment.

The team leader’s eyes were fixed on the direction of the bedroom, filled with a melancholic expression.

Huo Jinnan looked towards the bedroom, ”Is he in there?”

Ye Bai remained silent.

The team leader lay on the ground, sniffing for a while, his ears perking up, then turned his head towards Huo Jinnan and barked twice towards the bedroom.

Huo Jinnan stubbed out the cigarette between his fingers, his gaze fixed on the bedroom, his eyes dark as ink.

It must be Jin Bo inside, but who exactly is Jin Bo?

Ye Bai fired a shot at the floor by Huo Jinnan’s feet, ”Get out.”

Huo Jinnan withdrew his gaze, looking at Ye Bai, seeing the seriousness in his eyes, he placed the mooncake box on the floor, ”Nothing else, just thanks for his mooncake, this is a return gift. Tell him the mooncake he sent was delicious.”

As he finished speaking, he looked at the team leader, ”Let’s go.”

The team leader stood there, gazing at the bedroom and not moving.

Huo Jinnan called out in a deep voice, ”Team leader.”

The team leader looked in the direction of the bedroom for a while, then suddenly lowered his head, disheartened, and followed Huo Jinnan out the door.

Ye Bai exhaled in relief only after they had gone, then went over and locked the door.

Standing on the balcony, he saw Huo Jinnan driving away with the team leader, then walked over and knocked on the bedroom door, ”They have left.”

Jin Bo came out, sat down, and looked at Ye Bai, surprisingly silent.

Ye Bai knew he was in a bad mood and kept quiet.

After sitting for a while, Jin Bo looked at the mooncake on the floor, picked it up, and opened it to find the familiar ’Mama’ brand mooncake.

He picked one up, took a bite, and felt it catch in his throat, too many complex flavors at once.

Ye Bai looked at him, ”Why go through all this?”

Jin Bo remained silent. Ye Bai, not understanding, remembered how his mother and Anan had been saddened by him, a scene he didn’t want them to witness a second time.

After all, his mother had undergone a heart transplant surgery.

Ye Bai looked at Jin Bo, ”We’re bound to meet eventually.”

Jin Bo replied, ”The later, the better.”

Ye Bai didn’t respond.

The two sat in an exceptional silence.

After a while, Jin Bo turned to Ye Bai, ”It’s the Mid-Autumn Festival, won’t you have a piece of mooncake?”

Ye Bai glanced at it, took a piece, had a bite, and then put it down; he never had a sweet tooth.

After watching Ye Bai for a moment, Jin Bo suggested, ”Let’s go out for a walk, get a taste of the world outside.”

Ye Bai looked at Jin Bo, ”Aren’t you afraid they haven’t left yet, or that the team leader hasn’t left and we might run into them?”

Jin Bo was about to speak when his phone rang. He answered a call from Assistant Fang, his tone sharp, ”Do I need to repeat the same thing a second time?”

”I understand, Mayor Jin.”

Fang Zheng ended the call, somewhat confused. He had thought Mayor Jin was different when it came to his idol, but it turned out there was no difference at all!

Could it be that he was really targeting his idol to make a move against him?

He returned a call to Huo Jinnan.

Huo Jinnan acknowledged with a ”got it” before politely hanging up, sat in the car, and looked towards the team leader, who was incessantly smoking, ”Are you sure you haven’t mistaken?”

The team leader looked at Huo Jinnan and barked angrily twice.

Huo Jinnan furrowed his brows and called Huo Bei, ”Check out this Ye Bai person, find out his relationship with Jin Bo.”

After hanging up, he sat there, flicking ash from his cigarette, recalling the situation at the time, it was impossible for anyone to have survived!
