Looking at this awkward situation, Lou Xi stood up from the sofa and said, "Since you're back, let's all have dinner together. The food is ready."
Lou Xi pretended not to know that Lu Li was coming for dinner, acting as if she wasn't the one who leaked the information to him.
Qin Mobai walked in and said, "Let's hold off on dinner. Lou Xi, come upstairs with me; I have something to discuss with you privately."
His expression was very serious, as if what he was about to say to Lou Xi was something grave. Lou Xi nodded immediately.
Seeing Qin Mobai like this, Bai Lu and Lu Li clearly had no choice but to let the two go upstairs to talk.
Once Qin Mobai and Lou Xi left, only Bai Lu and Lu Li were left in the living room.
Bai Lu glanced at Lu Li, then turned around to sit on the sofa, took out her phone, pretending she was alone in the living room.
Not speaking to Lu Li was the best way.
