Du Qingyue didn't intend to ask Du Linlang whether she had agreed to assist the Bai Family against her.

If it were someone else, revealing such news could be understood as taking a stand, but not with Du Linlang.

She might be all friendly one moment, and the next moment, she could turn her back on you. Her stance changes so quickly, it's unpredictable.

What really gives Du Qingyue a headache is still the issue with Du Zhixiang.

She thought she could be indifferent, but when the moment came, she found herself unable to be completely heartless.

People often say that there are only unworthy children, no unworthy parents, but with Du Qingyue, it's the opposite, it has to be said the other way around.

At this moment, watching Du Linlang remain silent, Jiang Yixin pressed on step by step, "President Du, I was just asking if Xiao Feng hadn't taught you a thing or two for self-defense?"

Du Linlang smiled, "Not yet, but if I were to ask him, I'm sure he wouldn't refuse."

"Is that so?" Jiang Yixin sneered internally, "Since President Du is so confident, why not call Xiao Feng now and see what he says? To be fair, Qingyue and I won't say a word."

"That doesn't seem quite suitable, does it?" Du Linlang looked at Du Qingyue.

"It's fine, just go ahead and call," Jiang Yixin directly spoke on behalf of Du Qingyue, further provoking, "President Du isn't afraid, right?"

"Your tactic is quite crude, but since we're at this point, I guess I have no choice but to make the call." Du Linlang took out her phone to call Xiao Feng.

Du Qingyue said, "No need, the call won't go through."

As soon as the words were spoken, Du Linlang already heard the prompt, "Sorry, the number you dialed is not in service area, please try again later..."

Jiang Yixin exaggeratedly slapped her forehead and said, "Sorry, President Du, I forgot, Xiao Feng called earlier saying his phone would be out of signal for a few days. Looks like President Du didn't know?"

Du Linlang squinted her eyes, her tone still calm, "It's normal that I don't know. If Xiao Feng told me everything, Qingyue might not be happy."

In the past, Du Qingyue might have felt dissatisfied, but now, she was surprisingly calm and smiled, "Eating out or staying in?"

"Either is fine, we're guests following the host's lead." Du Linlang shrugged and replied.

"Let's compromise, bring the food back and eat at home."

With that, Du Qingyue called Lone Wolf to have them bring some groceries.

Half an hour later, Lone Wolf came in carrying a dozen dishes and cheerfully said to Du Qingyue, "Sister-in-law, the delivery guy has already confessed, someone hired him for the attack, but he doesn't know who's behind it.

I discussed with Chen Feihu, we'll see if there's any way to succeed, and try to find out the mastermind behind it tonight."

"No rush, invite Chen Feihu in for a meal," Du Qingyue said, "You've worked hard during this time."

Lone Wolf waved his big hand, "What's this about hard work or not? If big brother tasks me with something, I, Lone Wolf, will get it done, even if it kills me. I'll skip the meal, just have big brother treat me to a drink when he's back."

Du Qingyue nodded, "Alright, when Xiao Feng returns, I'll definitely have him treat you and properly reward you."

"Okay, I'm off then." Lone Wolf showed his characteristic honest smile.

"Wait." Du Qingyue called out to Lone Wolf, went into the kitchen, took a portion of each dish, and packed them for him.

Lone Wolf grinned from ear to ear, "That's enough, enough, I can't eat that much alone."

Just as he was leaving, when he passed by the living room wine cabinet, Lone Wolf suddenly couldn't move fast, as if his legs were filled with lead, making it hard to walk quickly.

Lone Wolf is a lover of good wine. He once joined Xiao Feng in sneaking into a winery to steal drinks.

In his words, a man isn't a man without drinking, and a life without wine isn't worth living!

Seeing him eyeing the wine cabinet persistently, Du Qingyue couldn't help but understand his intent. She immediately opened the cabinet door and generously said, "Take whatever you want to drink!"

Lone Wolf scratched his head a bit embarrassed, "Sister-in-law, if big brother finds there's less wine when he returns..."

Du Qingyue originally wanted to say that Xiao Feng didn't have a habit of drinking regularly, so he wouldn't notice one or two bottles missing, but knowing his character, she couldn't guarantee it.

So she said, "I gave it to you, if he has a problem, let him come to me!"

"Haha, then I won't hold back!" Lone Wolf burst into an even brighter smile, took a bottle of white wine from the cabinet, tucked another under his arm, and left the villa satisfied, to drink with Chen Feihu.

The two now lived across from the villa, so drinking by the window didn't make them worry about any sudden incidents.

Moreover, for people like Lone Wolf and Chen Feihu, drinking actually enhances their combat ability!

The dishes were set on the table, and the four women took their seats.

Du Linlang looked at Gao Panpan and asked, "You can drive, right?"

"Yes." Gao Panpan nodded.

Du Linlang tossed the car key over and then looked at Du Qingyue, "Shall we sisters have a couple of drinks?"

Du Qingyue nodded readily, signaled Jiang Yixin to bring over two bottles of wine.

Jiang Yixin and Gao Panpan were a bit dumbfounded next.

Because the way Du Linlang and Du Qingyue were drinking wasn't just like having a drink, it felt more like a drinking match.

Before touching a bite of food, they each had already downed three glasses of red wine.

Their glasses weren't small either, and after six glasses, the second bottle of red wine was only a third full.

"Qingyue, how old were we when we met?" Du Linlang asked with a slightly flushed face.

Du Qingyue answered without hesitation, "Since I can remember."

Du Linlang nodded, "Do you remember kindergarten, every afternoon there was a snack, sometimes an apple, sometimes a piece of bread. One day, we agreed to see who got more little red flowers in a month, whoever got more, could enjoy the other's snack for a month."

At this point, Du Linlang paused, laughed, and said, "Guess what the result was?"

"Bring two more bottles of wine," Du Qingyue tugged at Jiang Yixin's sleeve.

Jiang Yixin absentmindedly said, "Wait, let's hear the result first, it's not too late to go then."

"..." Du Qingyue.

Her best friend might be fake.

But this seems to be the norm, whether it's close friends or besties, they take great pleasure in uncovering each other's embarrassing stories.

At this moment, Jiang Yixin wouldn't miss hearing about Du Qingyue's childhood embarrassments.

A moment later, Du Linlang revealed with a smile, "From then until we graduated kindergarten, I always had double snacks."

The implication was clear that throughout the kindergarten years, Du Linlang had consistently outdone Du Qingyue in earning little red flowers.

Immediately, Du Linlang took a sip of red wine and asked, "Do you know why I always got more little red flowers than you?"
