Yu Song, who was reflecting silently at the side, could not help but smile.
Actually, the master could not be blamed.
That was because, Master had indeed changed.
(You've changed, buddy!)
He had become someone unfamiliar to him.
Who would have thought that the man who could scare off a mass of people with a single gaze in the conference room could become someone so gentle on the phone?
Gentle?
With his innate coldness, how was he capable of such gentleness?
Indeed, one would see more the longer he lived.
What about the women who had a crush on Master? How could they live with this fact?
Hearing his voice, Shen Fanxing did not detect any change.
"Yes, I know."
She flipped the covers open and wore her slippers. Her arms folded as she took in the scenery in front of the windows. Her gaze landed on the building that was the most attention-seeking, one that was the tallest in the whole city.
One was situated on a level in the most attention-seeking building of the city while the other was situated in an unattractive and neglected area.
One was in a suit and the other was in a nightgown.
They were supposed to be two people from different worlds, yet across the flourishing streets, they faced each other.
"You just woke up?"
"…Yes," answered Shen Fanxing after a pause.
"I heard you resigned today,"
Bo Jinchuan said cooly and upon hearing this, Yu Song smiled.
Bo Jinchuan had known the outcome, but he pretended not to know.
He was a wolf!
The term appeared in Yu Song's mind, scaring even himself.
Disrespectful!
Shen Fanxing remembered telling this to Grandma and Bo Jinchuan happened to be present.
It was normal for him to know.
"Yes, I've resigned."
Bo Jinchuan smiled and said, "Good."
"…" Shen Fanxing made a face but did not speak.
"Have you eaten?" asked Bo Jinchuan after going silent for two seconds.
Shen Fanxing looked at the clock placed on the cabinet above her bed; it was 11 o'clock.
"Not yet."
"Yes, I'm busy."
Yu Song's eyes twitched.
Though the office was enormous, the sound coming from the other end of the phone was clear as day due to the silence.
What kind of answer was that?
She said she had not eaten and you said you were busy?
Master, please allow me to give well-intended advice: this would not get you a girlfriend.
Shen Fanxing was shocked by Bo Jinchuan's words. After a while, she spoke, "You…"
"You want to hang up on me?"
Shen Fanxing faltered, "…but you said you were busy."
"Yes, do you intend to have your lunch at home?"
Shen Fanxing felt like she needed help, she was tired from trying to keep up with the man's mind, which she could not.
"I didn't intend to go out so I'll just order food to eat."
"Alright."
"…"
"…"
The two of them fell into a long period of silence.
It was long before Bo Jinchuan sounded again, "You hang up first."
Shen Fanxing replied, "…Okay."
Then, she moved the phone away from her ear and hung up.
End of conversation.
Yu Song straightened his body.
Bo Jinchuan kept his phone and turned around. Yu Song had no emotions on his face, keeping his usual stern demeanour.
"Master, the mall in the north of the city is almost constructed. Before this, there were many international brands applying to settle in. The in-charge has already handed in a report detailing the information of these brands. Besides that …"
Bo Jinchuan looked up and gave Yu Song a cool gaze. Yu Song felt ridiculous but his voice slowly became softer.
Instincts told him that was not a good time to speak.
