“You can tell me. I’ll memorize it now.” Chen Haijun looked at Xia Bing, who seemed a bit confused, and found her quite adorable. In fact, even when they weren’t talking at the cafe, he had already noticed her.
A handsome man, a seductive woman, and her delicate appearance – Haijun believed that many people had noticed their table, especially after the water-splashing incident. After being splashed with water by that arrogant woman, he thought Xia Bing would remain silent, but to his surprise, she cleverly retaliated.
“You must remember the number, or else I’ll be tormented to death by that woman Xiaoyu,” Xia Bing confirmed that Chen Haijun had noted down the number.
Chen Haijun smiled, thinking that this Xiaoyu wasn’t so scary.
“Once you’ve been around her for a while, you’ll understand,” Xia Bing unfairly exposed Liang Xiaoyu’s true nature, glancing sideways at Chen Haijun, “She’s already taken, but I could still introduce her to you if you’d like.”
“You’re so interesting. If you approached men with this side of yourself, I’m sure you would have been taken long ago,” Chen Haijun teased.
Xia Bing dramatically shuddered, “No thanks. That sounds like a curse. Don’t say things that might stimulate my heart.”
Time Smooths the Edges
Xia Bing said goodbye to Chen Haijun, came back to freshen up, and then rushed to her computer to work on her writing.
The phone rang, and Xia Bing didn’t even glance at it, “Xiao Bing, how are things with Haijun…”
With writing being urgent, Xia Bing unceremoniously pulled out the phone cord and looked at her mobile phone, pressing a button before tossing it back in the drawer. Even if the king of heaven came looking for her now, it wouldn’t matter – she had to finish her writing or she’d see her editor’s angry face tomorrow. She had procrastinated, and tomorrow was the final submission deadline.
Finally, at two in the morning, she finished her writing. Xia Bing immediately copied the file to a USB drive, mission accomplished.
“Finally, I can rest for a while,” Xia Bing looked satisfyingly at her computer, playing some of her recent favorite songs. Remembering she had to meet someone tomorrow, she decided to take a shower first.
