Chapter 108.1: You Close Your Eyes First (1)

For a brief moment, Chen Yunsheng thought Ji Fanyin was angry, but her expression reverted to normal so quickly that it felt as if he was overthinking. Nevertheless, he chose to trust his instincts.

He took his time gathering his courage while driving Ji Fanyin back, and it was only when the car stopped that he abruptly stopped her from unfastening her seatbelt.

Ji Fanyin looked at him and asked, “You have something else to say?”

“Big sis, are you angry?” Chen Yunsheng asked meekly.

He had a feeling that he had done something wrong, but he had no idea where it was that he had erred. As a result, his question came out terribly unconfident.

“I am,” Ji Fanyin answered with a smile.

Chen Yunsheng saw everything go dark for a moment there. He felt like an avid gamer who had finally gotten his hands on a long-awaited dating sim sequel, only to trigger a death flag right off the bat.

To make things worse, this game didn’t have any walkthroughs and allowed for no redos.

Chen Yunsheng decided to lower his head and humbly admit his mistake for the time being. “Big sis, can you tell me what’s wrong with my answer?”

“No, there’s nothing wrong with your answer.” Ji Fanyin leisurely rested against the chair as she eyed him with a glint. “You couldn’t have given a more accurate answer.”

Chen Yunsheng felt like he understood her words, yet not really so.

While he was still trying to figure out what she meant, Ji Fanyin had already shaken his hand off and released her seatbelt. She opened the door, and right before stepping out, she casually asked him, “Where are you interning at?”

Chen Yunsheng immediately reported the name of his company, but before he could say anything else, the car door had already closed on him.

Chen Yunsheng puffed up his cheeks and shouted, “Byebye, big sis!”

He could see a huge mansion right outside.

The place where Ji Fanyin lived was unapologetically upscale. The old Chen Yunsheng would have still been able to buy it without an issue, but the current he, who had just started making money in this world, was still a long way off from it.

I need to work hard on earning money! Chen Yunsheng told himself.

He was just about to drive off when it struck him that he had missed out on an extremely important detail. He had forgotten to exchange contact numbers with Ji Fanyin!

Slapping his own forehead in remorse, he quickly whipped out his phone and sent a message to the staff member who contacted him for the fan meeting. The other party replied quickly, politely informing him that Ji Fanyin’s private contact number was confidential.

Chen Yunsheng considered two choices: he could either chase Ji Fanyin right now and ask for her contact number or give up and drive back home. It didn’t take him long to make up his mind.

He got out of the car and sprinted in the direction where Ji Fanyin left. Barely after he took a few steps, the phone in his hand suddenly rang. He glanced at the screen and saw that it was a foreign number.

He accepted the call without slowing down. Before he could say a word, he heard Ji Fanyin asking him from the other end of the line, “You seem to be in a rush. Did you forget something?”

Shocked, Chen Yunsheng looked at the windows of the mansion but he didn’t see Ji Fanyin anywhere.

“I have CCTVs here, dumbo.”

Chen Yunsheng finally slowed his footsteps. While gasping for air, he said, “I forgot to ask you for your contact number.”

“Come here then. I’ll give it to you,” Ji Fanyin said.

Chen Yunsheng didn’t notice anything amiss at all. With a slightly happy “Orh”, he obediently marched toward the entrance of the mansion. It was only when Ji Fanyin opened the door and recited her phone number that it belatedly struck him.

If she has already dropped me a call on my phone, why do I need her to recite her phone number for me again?

He raised his head. As expected, Ji Fanyin was trembling with laughter.
