Ji Xiehan was yet to answer her question when his phone rang yet again.
"Sorry, I have to get this."
'Just great.' Li Lanni thought. Had this pervert planned this all out? To call her out for a meal in the name of having something to talk about only to keep postponing it? He even did it each time she thought he was finally going to speak.
That was so mean! Worst of all, her curiosity had been piqued to the max. She couldn't simply leave.
Li Lanni lamented a hundred times in her heart. How was this different from scratching one's itchy skin through a thick leather jacket?
Ji Xiehan hung up in less than half a minute.
"That was my assistant just now. There are documents that require my signature urgently."
"Do you need to go back to work, then?"
Ji Xiehan clearly detected the displeasure in her voice though she had tried to conceal it. He was suddenly tempted to act like he was really in a rush to go and use it as an opportunity to ask her out again.
