The Byoukidere Is Her Sweetie

Chapter 45: 045: Rounding up is a date (part 2)

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Zhou Xufang returned home at almost eight o’clock. It was a bit late, so she didn’t go out to set up a stall to apply screen protectors.

“You dyed your hair,” Shuangjiang noticed as soon as she walked in the door.

“Mm.”

“It looks good.”

Zhou Xufang awkwardly ran her fingers through her hair, “I’ll wash it out later.” Her profession was special, and she couldn’t have any noticeable features when going on a task.

If Jiang Zhi dyed his hair, it would definitely be beautiful, even more beautiful than the diamonds on a cotton candy box.

At the bottom of the computer screen, a line of words scrolled by, “We don’t have to pay for that commission; they breached the contract first.”

“Did you find out who they were?” Zhou Xufang wiggled her pink bunny slippers, her mind wandering off to another place.

If Jiang Zhi dyed his hair, it would definitely be especially beautiful…

Shuangjiang saw she was distracted and spoke with a synthetic voice instead of typing, “I found out. The client’s name is Jin Song. I sent his data to your email.”

Zhou Xufang opened her email on another computer.

“The group that intervened in our task last night are also professional errand runners, quite famous in the industry. Their leader is a man named Brother Qin. They operate in a company model, with excellent logistics and confidentiality. I can’t get their client information for now. I still don’t know if their client is also this Jin guy.”

That errand runner company was called FOR. Founded less than six months ago, it quickly became famous in the industry. Unlike Zhou Xufang, FOR took on any commission as long as they were paid.

Zhou Xufang had competed with them for business a few times and had some understanding. @@novelbin@@

She asked Shuangjiang, “Does this Jin Song have a grudge against Jiang Zhi?”

“They were supposed to collaborate on a movie, but it fell through for some unknown reason.” The synthetic voice stopped abruptly, and a line of bold capital letters rolled across the screen, “Additionally, Jin Song likes men, especially good-looking men.”

No wonder.

Jiang Zhi was a handsome man, an extremely handsome man.

Thinking of Jiang Zhi left Zhou Xufang feeling a bit deflated, “Jiang Zhi already suspects me.” She didn’t want to move. In the past, if she exposed herself, she would choose to run far away, but Jiang Zhi was so beautiful. If she moved away, she would never see his face again.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt discouraged, her head drooping like a listless quail.

Shuangjiang asked, “Did you expose anything?”

“I don’t know,” Zhou Xufang said. “Jiang Zhi is very smart.” She had deliberately disguised her voice, didn’t dare look him in the eye, yet he still found out.

She continued to droop her head, her fog-blue dyed hair limp, looking like a defeated quail.

Shuangjiang comforted her, “Ah Fang, you’re smart too.” Just too low in emotional intelligence.

Zhou Xufang’s eyelids drooped in contemplation, thinking about how to make Jiang Zhi stop suspecting her…

Ding.

A WeChat message came in. She glanced at it. It was the boss lady of the porridge shop, asking if she could help deliver orders. The shop was too busy.

It was gloomy outside; a heavy rain was coming. In this weather, traffic congestion would significantly lower the delivery efficiency of the couriers.

Zhou Xufang replied to the boss lady, “Okay.”

After replying, she thought for a moment, then found Jiang Zhi’s WeChat and sent him a smiley face.

“.”

Jiang Zhi mimicked her and sent a period.

She typed letter by letter, “Are you hungry?”

The other side showed “typing,” showed for a long time, but Jiang Zhi’s message didn’t come through.

Hm, she must have asked something too weird.

Zhou Xufang organized her words and asked again, “I’m about to deliver food; are you hungry?”

She put her phone on the table, using both hands to find the letters and type faster. She sent another message.

“You hired me as an extra. I should thank you.” After explaining, she asked again, “Are you hungry?”

This time, Jiang Zhi replied immediately, “Hungry.”

The corners of Zhou Xufang’s mouth lifted slightly, not used to smiling, a bit stiff, but her eyes were full of joy, “Then I’ll buy you some porridge.”

Was she asking him out?

On the other end, Jiang Zhi’s palms were sweaty, a bit slippery, nearly dropping his phone.

He grabbed a jacket and stood up, “Where are you? I’ll come over.”

“It’s raining heavily outside. I ordered delivery and will bring it to you.” She added, “I asked Ah Wan for your address.”

His steps paused.

Delivery…

Couldn’t she invite him to a place with better ambiance? Oh, she had no money… Alright, delivery it is.

He walked to the entryway, squatting down to change his shoes, “No need to bring it over. I’ll go to the porridge shop to find you.”

“It’s cold outside, and your health isn’t good; don’t go out.”

Quite obedient.

Jiang Zhi took off his shoes, unable to suppress the smile at the corner of his mouth, “Okay.”

Zhou Xufang: “.”

Jiang Zhi: “Hurry up.”

Zhou Xufang: “.”

Jiang Zhi: “I’m hungry.”

Zhou Xufang: “.”
