Chapter 66.1
It was tiring to be a teacher, even if your student was extremely smart and fully trusted you. This was especially so when the topic was something as elusive and subjective as the human mind. Imparting such knowledge was bound to be time-consuming.
After explaining the important steps and the logic behind them, Ji Fanyin proceeded to have a rehearsal with him.
Ah, I nearly forgot. My stand-in service counts as an additional service, so hell have to top up on the sum.
It took nearly three hours before their rehearsal dinner finally ended. By then, it was already close to 9 P.M..
Knowing that it was about time for her to get off work, Ji Fanyin took out her phone in preparation to turn off her alarm. Unexpectedly, her phone started ringing instead. She glanced at the caller id reflected on the screen and rejected the call right away.
The alarm rang right afterward.
Ji Fanyin switched off the alarm and smiled at Li Xiaoxing. My apologies, it was a call from another client. I have work tomorrow, so Ill be returning to the hotel now.
Youre leaving tomorrow? Li Xiaoxing, who was still in the midst of organizing his thoughts, raised his head to look at her. Ill offer the highest price. Stay for another day.
That person also offered the highest price, Ji Fanyin rejected Li Xiaoxings proposal without any hesitation.
Credibility was important when it came to running a business. She had set the rules herself, and she intended to follow them.
We havent sorted out all the details yet. Li Xiaoxing shook his head. There are still some parts Im unsure of.
Youre doing great. Ji Xinxin will be moved by your sincerity, assured Ji Fanyin as she rose to her feet.
Li Xiaoxings frown persisted. He wasnt going to be appeased with casual reassurances.
So, Ji Fanyin added, Do you still doubt my capability after all the lessons we have been through?
Li Xiaoxing fell silent for a moment before giving a slight nod and had seemingly accepted her reassurances. Ill contact you if I have any issues.
Ji Fanyin hitched a ride on Li Xiaoxings car to the 5-star hotel Secretary Fan had booked before parting ways with him at the hotel lobby. She was intending to stay the night, and that was why she had brought her suitcase with her.
She figured that it would be exhausting to rush back on a night flight. Not only would she arrive at an ungodly hour, she would also have to endure a lengthy car ride back to her apartment after that. After all the hassle, she still wouldnt have much time to catch some sleep.
Since that was the case, she would rather have some good sleep here and enjoy a 5-star hotels continental breakfast before heading to the airport.
It was of paramount importance that she rested well so that she would have the energy to deal with the buffoon who was thinking of three-timing her.
Returning to her room, she was just about to return the call from Song Shiyu to see what he was up to when she received an urgent international call from Zhang Ning instead.
Darling, tell me honestly. Did you sell yourself to the Bai Family as their daughter-in-law? asked Zhang Ning grimly. Did Madam Meng hand you a briefcase loaded with money to poach you from our studio?
I met her today, but I have no intention of selling myself. The amused Ji Fanyin casually kicked off her high heels by her hotel rooms foyer. Did she wave a cheque at you?
The agitated Zhang Ning began rambling about a whole lot of stuff. Ji Fanyin went to the washroom and started brushing her teeth while listening to her story. To summarize the lengthy story: Mrs. Bai had indeed waved a cheque at her.
Thats probably her way of expressing her sincerity, similar to how that mistress offered to compensate me two-fold of my fees.
Fortunately, Ji Fanyin was confident in accomplishing what Mrs. Bai requested of her.
What Mrs. Bai really wants is for her son to stop stumbling over women. That can be easily achieved without anyone duping Bai Zhou.
Bai Zhou simply has to mature into a rational adult and learn the correct values when it comes to romantic relationships. With those, he wont recklessly leap into a relationship without carefully thinking it over, regardless of whether it was true love or just a scam.
All I have to do is to teach him how to respect others and how he ought to be respected by others. As long as he understands where he went wrong, this problem will resolve by itself.
A child who has gone astray only needs to be guided back to the right path. Theres no need to turn him into another dysfunctional cold domineering CEO who has zero interest in women.
It doesnt really take that much effort anyway. I just need to make some minor modifications to my original plan. So easy~
