At first, Song Lanting thought that Xia Yunyin would come back and explain. Unexpectedly, he pretended that nothing had happened and even asked her if she had won or lost. Song Lanting’s expression turned colder than before.

When the other ladies saw this, they wanted to watch the show.

Sitting beside Song Lanting was a female model. She couldn’t stand Song Lanting’s arrogance and couldn’t help but smile sweetly. “Is Lanting angry? Fifth Young Master, hurry up and explain to her who called you just now. I heard the other person call you ‘Fifth Brother’ just now.”

Everyone knew that Xia Yunyin didn’t like other people calling him ‘Fifth Brother’ unless it was his siblings. His family was his family, and outsiders were outsiders. As long as Xia Yunyin said that it was a family member, even his best friend would shut up.

This was a taboo for Xia Yunyin.

The female model knew this. Hence, she didn’t say anything unnecessary and only singled out the arrogant Song Lanting.

Everyone who was playing mahjong knew that Xia Yunyin only had one cousin. This cousin had always called him ‘Xia Yunyin’. In that case, who was the one who called him ‘Fifth Brother’?

They wanted to know too, but this involved their good friend’s family, which was a taboo. They couldn’t talk about it in public. If they were in a serious situation, then they could have asked a few questions.

Talking about this topic in this situation was simply courting death!

After the female model finished speaking, the man beside her glanced at her coldly. “Don’t you know the rules? If you don’t want to stay, leave.”

This sentence made the female model’s face turn pale. If she left today, it was hard to say if she would be able to continue staying in the capital city after she walked out of the door.

She quickly acted like a spoiled child and apologized to Xia Yunyin.

When Xia Yunyin saw this, he raised his eyes and glanced at his friends as he played mahjong. He smiled and said, “It’s a family member you haven’t seen before. I’ll introduce you guys to her when I have the chance.”

When he said that, the three friends who were familiar with him knew that they couldn’t tease the woman who called him ‘Fifth Brother’. They laughed as they shuffled their tiles.

“Come, come, come. Your girlfriend defeated us just now. We lost one round and you won half of our funds. Let’s do it again. Let’s do it again!”

“If we win another round, we’ll be able to get back everything we lost.”

“Really? I’m afraid that when the time comes, you’ll have to mortgage your house and car to me.” Xia Yunyin raised his eyebrows. This topic was over.

The few friends knew that they couldn’t continue the topic from before, and the female model didn’t dare to tease Xia Yunyin. However, she dared to tease Song Lanting. Seeing that Song Lanting’s expression was getting colder and colder, the happier the female model was. She pretended to be good friends with Song Lanting and reached out to pat her shoulder. “Alright, Lanting, don’t be angry. Fifth Young Master gave you an entire production team just to woo you. You should be content.”

Song Lanting threw a tantrum and glared at the female model who was making sarcastic remarks. She didn’t give the other party any face and replied, “My affairs with Fifth Brother are none of your business. Don’t think too highly of yourself.”

Xia Yunyin, who was laying the tiles with one hand, paused for a moment. He pulled out his arm that Song Lanting was hugging. He was smiling, but his gaze turned colder. “Lanting, you know my rules. There aren’t many people who can call me Fifth Brother.”

“That’s right. Even we know Fifth Young Master’s rules. Lanting, why did you break his rule knowingly? Don’t…” Before the woman could finish her sentence, she was slapped in the face by Song Lanting, stunning her.
