The afternoon sun was a glowing medallion as the sunlight seeped in through the curtained window and shone on the calla lily placed on the coffee table, making it look as white and clear as snow.

She took her phone out from her bag and saw that there was only one missed call.

She waited for about five to six minutes, but that person did not call a second time.

She waited for another few minutes, but her phone never rang.

She lightly hit her brain out of annoyance. She forgot that it was Ji Jinchuan she was talking about and not Gu Jinchen.

In the past, whenever she threw a tantrum, Gu Jinchen would always give way to her. As long as she did not answer her phone, he would keep calling until she was willing to answer.

She forgot that Ji Jinchuan and Gu Jinchen were two different people.

Be it appearance, presence, or personality, they were miles apart.

Besides, she was only Ji Jinchuan’s lover. She was not his girlfriend or wife, so he did not have any reason to accommodate her.

She thought of a plan and made a call to him. After the call was answered, the person on the other end remained silent and did not make a sound. She could only hear his clear and faint breathing sounds.

She said in a gentle tone, “Sorry, President Ji. I went to the washroom just now.”

“Shen Youran.” He said her name in a gentle tone, and his cool and clear voice sounded very dry and deep.

It was a very peaceful voice, but it made her have a lump in her throat. It was as though her petty tricks were being exposed over the phone and she felt a hint of anxiety.

Humans indeed could not lie.

Besides, she lied to Ji Jinchuan, that powerful and intelligent man.

She pursed her lips and answered, “Yes?”

He remained silent again and said after a while, “Women can be smart, but they cannot be spoiled.”

She merely did not answer his call in a fit of anger. Must he make an issue out of it and claim that she wanted to be spoiled?

Spoiled?

She also hoped that he could spoil her, but he was not that Gu Jinchen who would always give way to her tantrums.

She acted dumb and pretended to be shocked. “President Ji, your words are too profound. I don’t understand.”

He did not know where she was now, but noise could be heard over the phone. However, it did not sound as if she was at the market. He said, “There are people who would order blue mountain coffee without sugar in the toilet?”

Shen Youran was stumped. “…”

She scanned her surroundings. A man, who was wearing golden-framed glasses, had just finished ordering his drink from the waiter. He ordered a cup of blue mountain coffee, and when the waiter walked away, he even raised his voice to say “without sugar.”

Her face was flushed red with embarrassment while she stuttered, “I… am at a cafe and had just come out of the washroom.”

“Shen Youran.” Ji Jinchuan called her name out again, and his voice sounded louder than just now.

She instinctively sat upright. If it wasn’t because she was in a cafe, she definitely would have replied with a “present” just like those times when her teacher was marking the class attendance.

Her gaze landed on a magazine on the table, and the magazine cover showed a woman holding a handbag that had just been listed by LV. The design looked unique and fresh.

In the next instant, she immediately said, “President Ji, a handbag has just been listed by an internationally-recognized brand. It doesn’t look bad and I really like it.”

He remained silent for a while and said, “I will get Feng Yi to buy it for you.”

Feng Yi was the head secretary of Ji Jinchuan. Not only was he responsible for his work schedule, but she was also in charge of his private life. All of the presents given by Ji Jinchuan to his lovers were personally bought by her.

Her voice was filled with shock and excitement. “Really?”

He faintly replied, “Yes.”

After that, she told him the brand of the bag and Ji Jinchuan listened to her with indifference. After she had said her piece, he only gave a faint “I got it” as his reply to her.
