The corners of Chen Yunsheng’s lips curled upwards but they were humbly ironed out, together with his dimples, as quickly as they appeared. He replied, “Mm.”
Ji Fanyin took a look at the time on her phone and said, “As for what happens after, we will discuss it later.”
Chen Yunsheng let out a moan of disappointment which was duly ignored by Ji Fanyin.
Ji Fanyin: “Shall we watch a movie after the meal? Or do you wish to go outside?”
Chen Yunsheng’s eyes widened. “I was under the impression that you’re going to leave after the meal.”
“I came over earlier just in case.”
The youngsters replied enthusiastically, “I’m fine with doing anything as long as it’s with you. But let’s stay in. It’ll take too long to get there and back. I don’t want to waste your time.”
After which, he happily got up to clear the table, sternly rejecting Ji Fanyin’s help when she tried to do so.
“No,” He said coldly, “Go over there and watch something on the television. I’ll handle this.”
‘Handle’.
After a few months of internship, he had even picked up professional terms.
Ji Fanyin raised her hands amusedly to indicate her unwillingness to interfere with his quest to become a househusband. She asked, “Can I look around?”
“Please feel free.”
As though reminded of something, he quickly turned back and said, “Oh, the bedroom…”
Ji Fanyin had no intention to barge into the youngster’s room in the first place. Therefore, after confirming which room was his bedroom, she nodded and headed for the living room.
The place Chen Yunsheng was living in was an ordinary two-room apartment. Apart from a living room, a kitchen, and his bedroom, he had a spare room which he used as a mini office.
It was definitely large compared to the apartment size of other fresh graduates.
The entire house was pretty clean and tidy. Even the handles on the cupboards were free of dust.
Is the house always this clean, or did that youngster do an emergency cleanup right before I arrived?
After she was done touring the living room, she made her way to his mini office. On a shelf, she found a stack of cookbooks with a notebook filled with details of the cooking techniques beside it.
Chen Yunsheng was truly a studious kid.
Ji Fanyin did not touch anything. When she was done, she turned back into the living room to read the texts from Zhang Ning.
Zhang Ning was expressing her shock after finding out Cen Xiangyang was the person brought back to the police station with Father Li: 【Is he crazy? Even if his family has links in the law enforcement field, that does not mean he could kidnap someone and not face the consequences! 】
Now that it had come to this, there might be a clash between the Li and Cen Family.
Even though Zhang Ning’s overall tone was surprised, the ending ‘eating popcorn’ emoticon had exposed her true intentions.
Ji Fanyin scrolled through her Weibo feed.
In this fast-paced interconnected age, there was basically no secret that could be kept. Apart from gossipy netizens like Zhang Ning who had ‘eyes’ everywhere, the news of Cen Xiangyang’s arrest had been widely reported on all entertainment and gossip websites.
Even though he was not the one only involved in the drama, as a public figure, he was the only one being widely discussed by the society. The Li Family and Ji Xinxin, on the other hand, were temporarily shielded from the press.
But it was merely temporary. Who wouldn’t want to know about the life of the rich and famous?
Finally, Ji Fanyin took one last look at the progress bar in the app before putting her phone down.
Coincidentally, Chen Yunsheng was walking over with a plate of nicely cut fruits. He sat down nervously beside her but left a person’s space between them.
Ji Fanyin glanced at the space between them with her peripheral vision.
A sudden realization hit her, she had never sat side-by-side with Chen Yunsheng before.
