Chapter 14.2: Golden Fish Number Two (2)
It was a particularly peaceful sleep for Bai Zhou till he was woken up.
The first thing he saw upon opening his eyes was the person he liked, and it brought a smile onto his face. He called out to her with a voice that was still a little nasal from having just woken up, Big sis.
You lazy bum. The other party poked his forehead. Its already after lunchtime. Your tummy is going to start hurting if you dont wake up soon.
Bai Zhou closed his eyes groggily as he mumbled softly, I want to eat the food you make. You said that you would learn some of the local specialties in France!
His words gradually slowed down, and the final word was literally spoken with a shout. He immediately sat upward as if he had been struck by lightning.
Shit! Ji Xinxin is obviously in France! The person beside me in a fake!
Bai Zhou glared at Ji Fanyin with a mixture of anger and fright, but the latter simply directed an unfazed smile at him and asked, Are you finally awake?
He wanted to burst out cursing, but at the next moment, he belatedly realized that he was holding onto her coat. He immediately flung it off as countless vulgarities flashed across his mind.
Lunch? Well get delivery! He vigorously whipped out his phone and tapped into a delivery app. Well be eating fried chicken!
Ji Fanyin sighed softly. Youre still young. You shouldnt eat junk food all the time.
Thats none of your business! shouted Bai Zhou. He was like a volcano that was already on the verge of eruption. You arent like big sis at all! Do you even know how to cook?!
I do, replied Ji Fanyin with a smile. I know a bit of French cuisine. What would you like to eat?
Bai Zhou was in the midst of furiously adding spicy chicken into his shopping cart when his finger abruptly came to a halt. Really?
The preparation time might be a bit long though, and I dont have any ingredients at my place. Ji Fanyin took a look at her watch. Why dont I grab some ingredients later on and cook dinner for you?
Bai Zhou stared at her intently as if he was trying to guard against a thief.
But in the end, he still caved in and agreed to it. He even passed his phone to her and said, Order what you want for lunch.
Ji Fanyin scrolled through the menu of the unhealthy fried chicken fast food restaurant, and in the end, she opted for Ji Xinxins usual choice of salad and corn.
Its lucky that I ate more for breakfast, she thought.
Probably thanks to having rested up well, Bai Zhou was much more effective in the afternoon. He managed to finish two sketches, which he carefully stowed away in a folder as if it was some sort of precious treasure.
You can go to the supermarket on your own. I wont be tagging along, said Bai Zhou as he walked out of the art room. Itll be troublesome if anyone catches the two of us together.
Ji Fanyin considered asking him for his bank card, but she decided against breaking her character here.
Ill just report my expenses to him later on. Its unlikely that he would shirk payment anyway.
Ji Fanyin headed to the Hema supermarket at the B1 floor in the shopping mall. She quickly drafted up an ingredient list in her mind and grabbed everything she needed before making payment. (Hema is a major China supermarket chain under Alibaba.)
Once she was done, she made a call to Bai Zhou.
His voice was as impatient as always. Youre done? Send me your address. Well head there separately.
Ji Fanyin blinked her eyes before replying, Lets head to your house instead. You have a larger kitchen. Besides Im worried that you havent been taking care of yourself recently. I want to take a look around your apartment.
She had no intention of giving her address away to her client that easily. Even with Song Shiyu, she chose to meet him in a public parking lot in her neighborhood instead of directly giving him her address.
She made a clear distinction between work and private life.
Bai Zhou was silent for two seconds. Perhaps it was because he didnt want to waste his time arguing with Ji Fanyin over this, he soon replied, Ill send my address to you. You head there yourself.
He hung up his phone afterward.
