Gu Qiqi remained calm and listened to Bai Lang’s persuasion patiently.
From introducing the Bai Medical Hall to analyzing the rules of the World Medical Competition as well as the strengths and weaknesses of the representatives from the various countries… Bai Lang spoke non-stop.
It could be seen that he had indeed put in some effort to show off in this competition.
For some reason, Gu Qiqi was actually a little comforted to see Bai Lang suddenly so motivated and serious.
Oh… It was the kind of relief when she saw that the landlord’s stupid son had finally grown up…
She initially didn’t want to have anything to do with Bai Lang, nor did she want to frequently come into contact with him, to avoid her identity as a woman being exposed. But when she thought of Gu Xuexue’s gloating expression…
What the enemy was unhappy about was what she had to do.
When Bai Lang finally finished presenting a long list of persuasion techniques,
Gu Qiqi nodded concisely. “Yes, okay.”
“Good?” Bai Lang was stunned before he became ecstatic. “Young Master Ye, are you agreeing to join our Bai Clan’s Medical Hall team? Ah, ah, ah, ah… That’s great! I, I, I…”
Bai Lang was so happy that he had the urge to open his arms and hug Gu Qiqi.
Gu Qiqi’s lips twitched a few times. She really couldn’t accept such enthusiasm.
Yes, Bai Lang was Gong Jue’s brother after all. Then, she was Bai Lang’s sister-in-law.
Sister-in-law and brother…
It was better to avoid suspicion and not be so intimate.
She took a step back and avoided Bai Lang’s passionate hug.
However, Bai Lang was already so excited that he forgot himself. He didn’t hug her but simply held Gu Qiqi’s hand and shook it desperately. “Young Master Ye, quickly tell me that I’m not dreaming! You really promised me this, right?”
Gu Qiqi was helpless. “Yes, I agree.”
Without a trace, she withdrew her hand.
This childish guy. She took back her words just now. He hadn’t grown up at all.
He was like a child when he encountered happy things.
Bai Lang suddenly thought of something. “Then, you and I will attend the cocktail party held by the organizing committee tonight, okay? You don’t have to change your clothes. You look very handsome in this. Oh… If you want to change, I have an entire dressing room at home with more than a thousand suits for you to choose from… It’s fine if the sizes aren’t suitable. I have a tailor at home who can alter them for you anytime…”
Bai Lang was incoherent. At the thought that he could appear at the cocktail party with Young Master Ye, he couldn’t help but feel excited.
Just thinking about it made him feel especially good.
Gu Qiqi facepalmed.
Oh no. She forgot that her real identity had to participate in the banquet too.
What should she do now?
She couldn’t possibly appear at the cocktail party and the competition venue as two different people.
She was worrying about this difficult problem.
Suddenly, among the crowd, Gu Xuexue couldn’t hold it back anymore. She pouted and said, “Young Master Ye, why did you agree to cooperate with the Bai family and not with our Shen family? Do you believe Bai Lang, that playboy, with just a few words?”
Bai Lang was unhappy and protested. “Hey, you’re a mistress who snatched someone’s fiancé. Watch your mouth. I’m not a playboy. I’m clean and honest!”
Hmph! You want to defame Bai Lang in front of Young Master Ye? His combat strength is very strong. He will torture you to death!
Gu Xuexue rolled her eyes. “Heh heh, Bai Lang, who in the entire Imperial Capital doesn’t know that you attract bees and butterflies? You’re very flirtatious and never do anything serious. Young Master Ye, our Shen family is so sincere that we even gave you the family heirloom jade as a keepsake. The Bai family didn’t do anything. Honestly speaking, between him and me, who’s more suitable for you?”
