"Whaaat?" A pout formed on Wei Sianqi's lips. "But, mom, you promised to help me!" She quickly went to Lu Mengjie's side and hugged the other woman's arm as she played along with her.

"Shh, sweetie." She placed a finger on her lips, hushing her. "It's supposed to be our secret." 

Han Yizhou watched the two women in front of him. Since when did they become this close? He never thought that they could get along so well. Aside from that, it seemed like Wei Sianqi's feelings for him were gone. It was a good thing. He was worried that she would end up ruining her life because of him. 

"You managed to convince Xia Liqin?" He asked as he turned to his wife.

"Of course! I am his sister after all." She grinned. "Also, Qiqi wouldn't have to be worried about my brother taking advantage of her. He has no interest in women. Games and money are the only things that he loves."

Wei Sianqi ended up pouting upon hearing what Lu Mengjie said. She wanted Xia Liqin to make a move on her. It would be a dream come true if she would be able to catch his attention.

"What time is he going to pick you here?" Han Yizhou inquired.

"Before lunch. You should go to work now, Jiejie, Mr. Yong. I will message you later."

The man stared at her helplessly. He couldn't do anything to stop her from moving to Xia Liqin's place. She was like a small animal entering a sleeping lion's den. 

"You don't have to worry about me." Wei Sianqi reassured him when she noticed his worried gaze at her. "I should probably start calling you dad." After all, he was old enough to be her father.

Now that she thought about it, Wei Sianqi realized that her feelings for Han Yizhou weren't deep or maybe… she had mistaken them for love since he saved her life. He was the only person who showed her kindness so she didn't want to leave his side. She didn't want to be abandoned. She feared being forgotten, as if she never existed the most, that was why she was willing to kill herself rather than to live alone. If her feelings of love were deep, she would not be distracted by Xia Liqin. Just as she thought, Black Cat would always be her number.

Han Yizhou's gaze softened when he heard the way he addressed her. He stretched out his arms and gently patted her head. "Well, I adopted you in the first place so I don't mind."

"Guess you will have to start calling me as your mom." Lu Mengjie chuckled. "Ah, but it's weird. I'm too young to have a child as old as you."

A small giggle was heard from Wei Sianqi. "That can't be helped. You married this old man."

"A handsome, sexy old man," Lu Mengjie corrected. "I don't regret it."

"Right, right. Aren't you two supposed to get going now?"

…

Later that morning, an hour before lunch time, Xia Liqin arrived at the penthouse to help Wei Sianqi on carrying her things since he thought that she was still disabled.

"Pay up," said Xia Liqin after he carried her and placed her in the shotgun seat.

Wei Sianqi didn't complain and instead, she happily paid him for his service. "Thank you!"

He ignored her after he was paid. He shut the car's door then took the wheelchair to his car's trunk before he entered the driver's seat.

Wei Sianqi already knew that it was not going to be easy to start a conversation with him unless the topic was either of the three: money, games, or his sister.

"Qinqing-Gege, what-"

"Don't call me that," he interrupted while his eyes were on the road as he drove. "You are not allowed to call me by that nickname."

Xia Liqin's nickname was too girly but he only allowed his family to call him that. Back then, he wasn't able to scold Wei Sianqi since his sister was with her.

"Then what do you want me to call you?" She tilted her head as she looked at him in confusion. She wasn't offended by what he said at all. She was the one who was acting close to him.

"Anything but that." He stopped the car when the traffic lights turned red.

"Then… My love?"

In an instant, Xia Liqin turned his head to her as he looked at her in shock.

"You said anything. So you wouldn't mind being called 'my love', right?" She had a poker face that the man wasn't able to read whether she was joking or not.

His forehead furrowed into an agonized frown. "Should I turn the car and send you back?"

"I'm kidding!" She giggled. "You were looking so serious so I just wanted to crack a smile on you."

He turned his head back to the road and stepped on the accelerator pedal when he saw the traffic lights turned green. Once again, he ignored her.

"Gege should be fine, right?"

"You are not my sister and we are not close."

She pouted and crossed her arms. "If I'm not allowed to call you that way, then how should I call you?"

"Politely."

She pressed her lips as she had an upset look on her face. "So you want me to call you Mr. Xia?"

"Better."

Meanwhile, at the conference room at Nebuloud Corporation, Han Yizhou, who was currently in the middle of a meeting, received messages on his phone. When he checked them, he saw that they were messages from the bank. His eyes narrowed not because Wei Sianqi used the credit card but at the amount he saw. Money was never a problem to him but… Could she perhaps pay Xia Liqin 2 millions just for picking her up?
