Chapter 199: Behave Don't Move 12_1

Baili Xia shrugged her shoulders, immediately smiling and saying,

“I’m someone who easily forgets.

When I’m happy, I immediately forget unpleasant things.”

Mu Ziying snorted, really wanting to take the pen in her hand and smack it onto her head.

“What 200,000?

You owe her money?”

Dongfang Ji looked at Mu Ziying, the corner of his lips curving up again: “How much do you owe?

I’ll repay it for you.”

“Who wants you to repay it for me, I don’t owe her any money, I just bought…”

“Two cakes.

I am not in debt, she is the one giving the money.”

Baili Xia looked at Dongfang Ji, suddenly, her eyes sparkling.

She chuckled,

“Sister Ziying, didn’t you just say this cake is delicious?

Do you want to eat a few more pieces?”

“For 100,000 per piece, who would eat your lousy cake?”

Mu Ziying had barely finished speaking when she caught sight of Baili Xia’s pointed gaze.

Their stares collided, and after a slight start, Mu Ziying immediately understood.

Suddenly, the chequebook she had prepared to give out was taken back and placed into her bag.

She raised her head to look at Dongfang Ji who was standing aside, raising an eyebrow.

“As a token of our new acquaintance, would you mind treating me to some cake?”

Dongfang Ji already understood that these cakes were exorbitantly priced.

For 100,000 per piece, it really was no different from robbery.

However, this is a charity sale, where anything overpriced can appear, there’s nothing unusual about that.

Just look at those rich girls bringing out used or old items for auction, no one would really buy them.

In the end, if they failed to make a sale, they would have to have several servants from their households pretend to buy something.

Or perhaps businesses that had a vested interest would come by and buy something from these youngsters.

Giving the other party face while also fostering good relationships.

To bring your own handmade cakes for sale at a charity bazaar was actually quite a novelty.

Look at the stalls around here, wherever you look, either it’s used jewelry or some old clothes.

“Like it?” He picked up a plate and brought it to Mu Ziying.

The smile on his face seemed slightly indulgent.

“If you like it, I’ll treat you.

You can eat as many as you want.”

“Really?” It was Baili Xia who asked this, she looked at Mu Ziying, winking at her subtly.

This Dongfang Ji also looked like a wealthy man, since he’s offering, might as well think of it as him doing charity.

Mu Ziying rolled her eyes at Baili Xia, how could she not see through her petty schemes?

However, she didn’t want to let Dongfang Ji off the hook either.

Since he’s treating, she might as well eat her fill!

She received the small plate Dongfang Ji handed her, took up her fork without looking at him, and began eating the cakes.

Thank goodness for Baili Xia’s cakes, they were delicately made in abundance but very small in portion.

She devoured seven or eight in one breath and surprisingly didn’t feel full at all.

“Come on, Xiaxia, I’m treating you.

After all, he’s paying.”

Mu Ziying picked up another small plate and handed it to Baili Xia, her gaze flitting towards Dongfang Ji.

Dongfang Ji shrugged his shoulders, acting nonchalant.

Baili Xia had not expected Dongfang Ji to behave so indulgently towards Mu Ziying.

The last time they met, he seemed quite gloomy and frightening.

But in front of Mu Ziying, he’d suddenly become cheerful and radiant.

Once he cheered up, his whole aura felt sunnier, a world away from the gloominess when they first met.

It seemed like he truly liked Mu Ziying.

However, it seemed that sister Ziying’s opinions of him were not very favourable.
