âDonât worry, itâll be his turn soon!â
âMiss, can you please spare me already?â Sizhe had no choice but to capitulate in front of Jian Dan.
âYou shouldnât be saying that to me, you should be saying it to the girl who likes you!â
âThen call her over, Iâll make things clear to her right now, so she doesnât waste her time on me!â
âSizhe, how can you be so sure itâs a waste of time?
How do you know that you and she arenât meant to be?
I think you should give her a chance and give yourself one, too. No oneâs saying you two have to turn out a certain way, right? Try interacting with her! If not as lovers, then as friends!â
âSister-in-law, why do you enjoy playing matchmaker so much?â Sizhe asked helplessly.
âI just think itâs time for you to get out there. There are plenty of great girls in this world!â
âThisâ¦â
âJust give it a try, okay? It might ward off those pesky admirers, too!â
After a long silence, Sizhe finally said, âAlright then!â
âThatâs more like it!ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWho is she, anyway?â
âYouâll know when you see her!â Jian Dan didnât tell Sizhe but rather kept it a mystery.
âWhat?â
âI think youâll thank me when the time comes!â Jian Dan said this and then left Sizheâs office.
After Jian Dan left, Sizhe called Chu Liyuan.
At this time, Chu Liyuan had just gotten up and was preparing to have breakfast~
âChu, you better come back quick! Your wife has too much free time now!â Sizhe complained to Chu Liyuan. As soon as Sizhe opened his mouth, Chu Liyuan guessed what he was calling about and his lips curved into a smile~
âYouâre seeking a wife and yet you want my wife to worry about it, donât you feel ashamed?â Chu Liyuan retorted directly.
Sizhe almost laughed out of frustration at Chu Liyuanâs response, âYou two really are a match made in heaven!â
âThank you, I think so, too!â Chu Liyuan didnât get angry, instead responding happily.
Sizhe shut his eyes and took a deep breath to suppress the anger rising in his chest, âIâm hanging up!â
After hanging up, he sat alone in his chair, stewing in his own irritation~
He really was being masochistic~
On the other hand, Chu Liyuan was in a rather good mood after ending the call!
When Jian Dan returned to her room, she saw Yuanyuan waiting at the door~
âYuanyuan, you havenât been waiting here for me all this time, have you?â
âJian, how was it? Did he eat it? What did he think? Did he like it?â Yuanyuan bombarded her with a barrage of questions.
âYuanyuan, why are you so nervous? Werenât you just confident in your lunchbox?â
âThatâs true, but everyone has different tastes!â
Jian Dan rolled her eyes at Yuanyuanâs comment.
âThen Iâll answer your questions one by one~
He ate it!
He thought it was pretty good!
As for whether he liked it or not, I didnât ask~ But judging by his expression, Iâd say he probably liked it!â
âReally?â Yuanyuan grabbed Jian Danâs shoulders in excitement~ A huge smile spread across her face, her eyes brimming with joy.
Jian Dan realised for the first time that Yuanyuanâs grip was actually quite strong, making her shoulders sore.
She quickly removed Yuanyuanâs hands from her shoulders~
At this moment, Yuanyuan was like a primary school student who had just been praised by a teacher, ecstatically dancing around.
âYuanyuan, youâre this excited over such a small thing. If you two really get together one day, wonât you have a heart attack?â Jian Dan teased.
âTogether? Ahh~ I canât even dare to think about it! Every time I do, I feel like my heartâs about to stop!â Yuanyuan dramatically placed her hand over her left chest.
Jian Dan looked at Yuanyuan with disdain as she mooned over the sky, then turned and went back to her own roomâ¦
