These thoughts flashed across Ji Fanyin’s mind in a matter of moments. She soon offered her response to Li Xiaoxing, “Did she reject you directly?”

“… She didn’t accept the proposal,” Li Xiaoxing slowly replied. “What should I do?”

Faced with Li Xiaoxing's seemingly calm but desperate question, Ji Fanyin chuckled softly, “You don’t need to do anything at all.”

“You’re saying that I should give up?”

“It isn’t giving up. You have sowed the seeds and applied the fertilizer. All you have to do now is wait for the harvest.”

“… Ji Fanyin, if an irreparable crack were to appear in my relationship with Xinxin over this matter, you’ll regret every cent you took from me.”

Li Xiaoxing’s threat hardly registered with Ji Fanyin at all. “It’s getting late. You should be heading to sleep. Everything will be fine when you wake up tomorrow morning. The hurdle you’re facing is commonly known as gamophobia. Ji Xinxin has a strong mind. She’ll come around by tomorrow.”

There was no need to. Ji Xinxin would surely call her back. 

Just think about it. How could Ji Xinxin possibly sleep when she just found out that her mortal nemesis had uncovered her greatest trump card two hours ago? She must be worried out of her mind right now!

There was no doubt she was awake at this very moment. She was likely racking her brains in search of a way out of this disaster. 

Ji Xinxin couldn’t possibly turn a blind eye to it when her mortal nemesis called at a time like this.

Ji Fanyin leisurely picked up her remote control and continued playing ‘Greatness of Love’. 

Just as she had expected, her phone started ringing aroun…
