Chapter 2018 - 121: Sounding East and Striking West
Not only is it annoying, but it also affects your appetite!
He sat there, fiddling with his phone, dialed again, and still couldn’t get through.
This little one really has quite a temper.
After a pause, he called Fang Zheng, "Come back, let me borrow your phone."
Fang Zheng was almost at the elevator when he got the order, so he had to return, obediently handing over his phone.
Jin Bo glanced at Fang Zheng’s uneasy expression, "I’m just making a call; as for your privacy, even if you gave it to me, I wouldn’t want to look."
Fang Zheng, "..."
What did he do to offend City Manager Jin to be treated so coldly!
Once Jin Bo saw Fang Zheng leave, he kicked the door shut, took Fang Zheng’s phone, and found he couldn’t unlock it.
He opened the door, looking at Fang Zheng’s back, "Unlock password."
Fang Zheng stopped, turned around, and told him the password.
Jin Bo, "You can change it after I’ve used it."
Fang Zheng, "..."
This is outright tyranny!
Alright, he would endure it.
Jin Bo closed the door, entered the password, looked at his own phone, opened the dial pad on Fang Zheng’s phone, and typed in Yan Xiaoxi’s number, calling her.
Yan Xiaoxi saw a call from Fang Zheng, stared at it for a few seconds, and answered, "Assistant Fang."
Jin Bo, "It’s me."
Hearing Jin Bo’s voice, Yan Xiaoxi was entirely displeased, wishing she could jump at him and bite him if he were nearby.
Seeing Yan Xiaoxi not speaking, Jin Bo’s voice was husky, "Don’t hang up."
Yan Xiaoxi, "..."
She didn’t hang up but also stayed silent.
Jin Bo, "Remove my WeChat ID and phone number from the blacklist."
Yan Xiaoxi, "..."
Jin Bo, "..."
Really not speaking, this girl has quite a temper!
Jin Bo paused and cleared his throat lightly, "Still angry?"
Yan Xiaoxi, "What do you think?"
Jin Bo coaxingly said, "Then what should I do to make you not angry?"
Yan Xiaoxi, "I don’t know."
Jin Bo’s voice was soft and gentle, "Xiaoxi, the old man misses you."
Yan Xiaoxi, "..."
Jin Bo, "The old man’s heart isn’t good, and his skin is thin, handle with care, gently."
Yan Xiaoxi, "..."
Face it?
The heart issue is true, but where is the thin skin?
Handle with care and be gentle—was this an attempt at brainwashing her?
"Sorry, I’m not inherently gentle. If you want gentleness, find someone else."
Jin Bo, "..."
What a sharp tongue!
He said softly, "Fine, a little rebellion now and then is quite refreshing."
Yan Xiaoxi, "..."
Was that even rebellious?
"You... you didn’t do well in Chinese class before."
Jin Bo, "My Chinese teacher died."
Yan Xiaoxi shuddered, "Don’t you know to respect teachers?"
Jin Bo lay down on the bed, listening to Yan Xiaoxi’s voice, every pore on his body opened comfortably, "I know, I’m serious. When I was in third grade, my Chinese teacher died, which delayed things. After getting a new teacher, my Chinese learning was hindered, so I really didn’t do well."
Yan Xiaoxi, "..."
Jin Bo, "Good morning."
Yan Xiaoxi couldn’t help but think off track, "Good morning."
Jin Bo lightly coughed, "Same difference, still good morning."
Yan Xiaoxi hung up the phone directly.
Jin Bo called again, and it was hung up.
Called again, and it was still hung up.
He counted and on the thirteenth call, she finally answered. Before Yan Xiaoxi could speak, the first thing he said was, "Baby, I was wrong, I won’t upset you again."
Yan Xiaoxi, "..."
So shameless!
After hanging up on him so many times, he still wasn’t mad!
If it were Lu Yi, he would’ve already started cursing.
