After Jiang Zhi left, Ling Jingyuan was wide awake.

Looking at the empty room, Ling Jingyuan couldn't help but miss Jiang Zhi.

He picked up his phone, opened the three-person group chat, and sent a message. Soon after, the other two people in the group replied.

Seeing this, Ling Jingyuan grabbed his phone and quickly left. For safety, he didn't drive himself but called a driver.

Fu Libai's private club.

Inside the private room.

Fu Libai and Zhou Siye had already arrived when Ling Jingyuan finally arrived, pushing open the door and striding in. He went straight to his assigned sofa and sat down, looking somewhat languid.

Fu Libai glanced at his shoulder and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Jingyuan lifted his eyelids slightly. "Yeah, it's nothing."

Zhou Siye toyed with the wine glass in his hand, his tone low and somber, "I heard you got Qin Man imprisoned. Didn't that old man from the Qin family cause you any trouble?"

Ling Jingyuan chuckled softly, his dark eyes flashing with coldness when he heard Qin Man's name.

"Sacrificing a pawn—that old fox understands this better than anyone."

Fu Libai nodded in agreement, "Indeed, the Qin family's relationships are complicated."

"Qin Man is nominally the eldest daughter of the Qin Group, but in reality, who knows how many brothers and sisters she has."

"Old Qin doesn't care about her at all."

"He won't offend Jing Yuan for Qin Man's sake."

Zhou Siye glanced at Ling Jingyuan and still reminded him in a low voice, "It's always good to be careful of that Qin family."

Ling Jingyuan responded softly, "Yes, I know."

Fu Libai noticed that Ling Jingyuan's expression was a bit off, so he raised an eyebrow and looked at him, "Brother, is something wrong? I feel like something's not right with you."

Ling Jingyuan thought of Jiang Zhi's phone call, which she deliberately avoided him, and shook his head with a deep look in his eyes.

"No, I'm probably just a little tired."

Fu Libai and Zhou Siye exchanged a glance, clearly sensing that their friend didn't want to talk about it. Having been brothers and friends for many years, they knew each other quite well.

Seeing that his friend didn't want to talk about this anymore, Fu Libai smiled faintly and changed the subject.

"By the way, my son will be one month old in a few days. Don't forget to come over for a cup of wine to celebrate his one-month birthday, you two godfathers."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Siye responded softly, "Okay."

Ling Jingyuan nodded slightly, "Of course I'll go to my godson's full moon celebration."

Upon hearing this, Fu Libai's face lit up with a smug and arrogant smile, and his eyes, full of affection, were filled with pride as he looked at the two of them.

"Don't envy me, all of you who aren't married should hurry up and get married, and those who haven't proposed should hurry up and propose."

"Although you can't catch up with me right now, you can still speed things up."

Ling Jingyuan was already annoyed by Fu Libai's words. He glanced at the man with disdain and twitched the corner of his mouth.

He brought his child to his own wedding, and even managed to get him on board after the fact.

Zhou Siye took a small sip of the wine in his glass, a faint smile appearing in his dark, deep eyes. He then gracefully set down his glass and calmly looked at the two of them.

I'm getting married.

"Three months later."

Ling Jingyuan, Fu Libai: ...

Zhou Siye was pleased to see their reaction. He smiled faintly at them and said, "Don't forget to be my best man when the time comes."

Fu Libai was the first to react. He looked at Zhou Siye with a meaningful smile and said, "Brother Siye, you didn't also cause trouble for someone else, did you?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Siye glanced indifferently at Fu Libai with his dark eyes and chuckled, "Do you think everyone is like you?"

Fu Libai: ...

Without personal attacks.

What's wrong with him?

What's wrong with him wanting his son to be reborn into his family sooner?

Ling Jingyuan was also somewhat surprised that Zhou Siye was getting married!

Why the rush? Three months from now!

"Why are you in such a hurry? Is there really no time to prepare for the wedding?"

Ling Jingyuan frowned and looked at Zhou Siye.

Zhou Siye smiled faintly, "I want to have a child with Lin Li as soon as possible, so I can get the license before I start working."

"I've already started making arrangements for the wedding, so there shouldn't be any problems."

Upon hearing this, Ling Jingyuan and Fu Libai exchanged a glance and both cast admiring glances at Zhou Siye.

Good guy.

This person was already arranging a wedding without knowing when they were getting married. They really fooled them this time.

Zhou Siye glanced at Ling Jingyuan, "What about you? What are your plans with Jiang Zhi?"

Ling Jingyuan felt extremely displeased at the thought of this.

He was preparing to propose to Jiang Zhi, but it was all ruined by those two self-righteous and foolish women, Jiang Shihan and Qin Man. If they hadn't tried to hurt Jiang Zhi, he wouldn't have been injured.

He should have already successfully proposed to Jiang Zhi and was on an early honeymoon abroad by now!

Ling Jingyuan let out a soft breath, expelling the pent-up frustration from his heart.

"The proposal is being arranged."

"It won't be long, and as for marriage, it depends on Jiang Zhi's decision."

The two nodded in agreement.

Fu Libai smiled faintly at Ling Jingyuan: "Propose and settle the engagement first, then marriage won't be far behind. Look at our brother Siye, isn't he a successful example?"

Zhou Siye remained calm and composed, elegantly and gracefully picking up the wine on the table and taking a small sip, completely ignoring Fu Libai's joke.

Ling Jingyuan glanced at Fu Libai and Zhou Siye, feeling a pang of jealousy.

He envied them, one or two of them.

One has a wife, kids, and a warm bed; the other will soon have a wife, kids, and a warm bed too.

He was the only one still floating in mid-air.

No!

He also needed to speed things up; he wanted to propose and secure a formal status for himself.

That night, Jiang Zhi spent the night at Ling Jingyuan's house. The two slept in each other's arms, enjoying a rare, completely vegetarian sleep.

Although this is not what Ling Jingyuan wanted.

However, Jiang Zhi was adamant that he was not allowed to do anything reckless until his wounds had healed.

Ling Jingyuan was somewhat helpless, so he could only hold the person and collect some interest. He pulled her into his arms and kissed Jiang Zhi's lips fiercely to quench his thirst.

But unexpectedly, in the end, it was himself who suffered the most.

He took two showers in a row, but in the end, he could only give in to Jiang Zhi's gentle gaze.

I held the person in my arms and turned off the lights to sleep.

the next day.

Jiang Zhi woke up early, prepared breakfast, ate breakfast with Ling Jingyuan, and then carefully gave Ling Jingyuan some instructions before leaving.

She's going to the studio.

For once, Ling Jingyuan didn't pester Jiang Zhi. He kissed Jiang Zhi's lips and nodded obediently.

"I'll have the driver take you."

"Come back early when you're done. I'll be waiting for you for dinner."

Jiang Zhi smiled gently upon hearing this, "Okay, you rest well at home, I'm leaving."

Ling Jingyuan chuckled softly, "Okay."

After seeing Jiang Zhi off, Ling Jingyuan picked up his phone and called his assistant: "Come over here."
