After the festival and her sudden bet with He Haotian, Shen Yi didn't know what to make of her change in mood. Before their vacation, she seemed very relaxed and was floating in a cloud. Afterward, she looked like someone had eaten the last piece of cake she kept in the fridge.
He Haotian agreed to his request that he would only train Lu Xinyi after a week to give her time to recuperate from exhaustion. Since she applied for Silver Leaf, Lu Xinyi didn't really have time to take a break from cooking.
Before leaving the inn, He Haotian also talked to him. The older man admitted that a reason why he wanted Lu Xinyi not to attend Silver Leaf was to avoid being targeted by her maternal family. Until Chairman Sun names an heir to his vast wealth and assets, his children would keep fighting and plotting against each other, something he believed Lu Xinyi should be spared from.
