Shi i crawled out of bed and reached for her phone on the nightstand.
She found Bai Yuejie on WeChat and sent a video call right away.
It was after nine in the evening, and Bai Yuejie had already gone to bed, preparing to sleep.
She was about to turn off her phone when a video call notification suddenly popped up.
Seeing the cute and bubbly profile picture nearly overflowing the screen, Bai Yuejie paused.
The two had been connected on WeChat for so long, yet this fool had never spoken a word to her.
Now in the middle of the night... could it be that Shi Lingyan was also with her, or perhaps, could it be that Shi Lingyan wanted to contact her?
Bai Yuejie’s heart thumped, and she quickly answered the video call.
"Hello!"
As soon as the connection was made, Shi i’s chubby double chin dominated the entire screen.
Bai Yuejie: "..."
"Sister Bai, Sister Bai, awooo, I miss you so much, why haven’t you co to play with Shi i!"
Bai Yuejie: "I’ve been busy lately, why hasn’t Shi i gone to bed yet?"
"My hubby went to take a shower, and Shi i is waiting for hubby, to turn off the lights, to go to bed, to sleep!"
Bai Yuejie felt a pain in her chest, suddenly feeling that answering this call was a mistake!
Yet, Shi i seed completely oblivious to the ss she’d made, giggling, "Sister Bai, Aunt Chen said it’s grandma’s big birthday in a few days, big birthday ans birthday, and birthdays an birthday gifts, what birthday gift will Sister Bai give to grandma?"
Bai Yuejie composed herself, barely managing a smile, "Is it so late and you called just to ask about this?"
"Yes," Shi i tilted her head, "Not late, Shi i and hubby still have more than an hour before we sleep!"
Bai Yuejie felt as if a fly was forcibly stuffed into her heart, disgustingly uncomfortable, "Heh."
Shi i, seeing Bai Yuejie’s face grow even uglier, felt very pleased inside, giggling, "Because there’s no class tomorrow, so we can sleep a bit late, can Sister Bai take shopping for a birthday gift tomorrow?"
No way!
Just dealing with her now nearly drove her mad, eting in person, she feared she might actually lose years off her life!
Bai Yuejie, looking distressed was about to refuse, when she heard Shi i say again, "Aunt Chen said that Sister Bai always makes grandma very happy. Shi i also wants to make grandma happy, waaah, Sister Bai, take with you!"
"Go ahead," a gentle voice ca from the doorway, Uncle Liu with a straight, gentlemanly posture, stood by the door, wearing an elegant smile, "This is a rare opportunity, you need to cultivate so feelings with her."
Bai Yuejie’s heart was choking with disgust, but her rationality slowly regained control.
Yes, she needed to foster feelings with this fool.
Slowly make her one of her own, so that she would willingly give up her life for her, just like Tang Wu.
Bai Yuejie put on a smile again, nodded, and said, "Alright."
Shi i cheered joyfully on the other end of the video, dancing, shouting, "Then Sister Bai, you have to co pick up tomorrow!"
"Okay."
...
After hanging up, Bai Yuejie turned to Uncle Liu.
Uncle Liu, with a kind smile, said, "Silly girl, this is a rare chance to show your face, let Old Lady Shi recognize your worth, so it’s not just about sending the fool with a good gift, but also letting everyone know this was your doing."
He patted Bai Yuejie’s head, "Besides, your main surgeon from three years ago has just returned to the country. It’s a good opportunity to check whether she is qualified to give you her heart."
