"Huh? What did you just say?" Bai Yuning put down the phone and turned away.

Li En frowned and glanced at her, "Who are you waiting for a call from? You look so absent-minded."

"I'm asking, what did you message me about two days ago? Is the man you're flirting with Ji Zihan?"

Bai Yuning replied sullenly, "Well... yes, but..."

She sighed.

"But what?" Li En looked at her puzzledly.

Bai Yuning turned over and propped up her head. "Sometimes I feel like he likes me a little bit, but sometimes I don't feel it, and it feels like he is playing with me..."

“Men are so hard to understand.”

"Oh, look at how you're falling in love. Do you like him? If you like him, just take the initiative. What are you afraid of?" Li En stopped playing the game and asked with interest.

"He probably likes me, so he took the initiative... Let's forget about it. You know I've been in love for 0 times, so he has to pursue me anyway."

"I have to be the first to take action in my first love, and I'm not happy about that." Bai Yuning pouted.

Playing with the black screen of his phone, he muttered, "I've been back for a whole night, and there's not even a call. Xiao En, do you think he's playing a trick on me?"

Li En patted her shoulder and said with an attitude of an experienced person, "Oh, men will be shy too."

"Although Ji Zihan's personality is a bit weird, maybe he is shy in private. What if he is also waiting for you to find him? How long will it take for the two of you to get anything done if you keep dithering?"

"If I were you, I would just call him and ask if I wanted to. There's nothing to worry about."

Li En acted like a battle-hardened master and gave earnest advice.

Bai Yuning thought for a moment and pouted, "Call him on my own initiative? Forget it... Why should I call him?"

"Just go ahead. You don't have to call me, just send me a message. You're making me anxious."

Bai Yuning picked up the phone hesitantly, "Then let me send a message and try?"

"Send it!"

Encouraged by Li En, Bai Yuning finally picked up the phone and sent a message.

A dry sentence: "I'm back home."

Li En's eyes went dark after seeing this, "... you... okay, let's see how he responds."

Bai Yuning let out a long sigh, "Ah... I don't know if he will reply to me. What should I do if he doesn't?"

Li En was helpless. "It's not like he won't reply to you. If he really doesn't reply to you, then we can wait for him to return to China and talk to him face to face. Don't you still have to go back to work?"

"Chat? How? Just go up to me and ask, do you like me?"

"I told you I can't do it."

"Then you can provoke him. You are planning to resign, so tell him that you are going to resign and see how he responds. If he likes you, he will definitely keep you."

Bai Yuning blinked at the ceiling, "Well... this method is not impossible..."

However, a week later...

Bai Yuning's cut feet have healed, and just as she had guessed before, she still has not received a reply from Ji Zihan.

There is no phone either.

Bai Yuning holds her cell phone in her hand and checks it over and over again every day, and the white phone is almost worn out by her polishing.

On the day she got her social media account back, she asked Song Zhe.

Song Zhe just said he didn't know, and it was said that he didn't see Ji Zihan on the forum in the next few days.

Did Ji Zihan actually not go to the forum at all? Bai Yuning was a little puzzled.

On the seventh day, the raging fire in my heart was almost extinguished into a small spark.

The forum had ended long ago, and there was no news of Ji Zihan returning to China.

Where on earth did he go...

She couldn't help but ask Yu Jinsi, "Jinsi, has President Ji contacted you these days?"

Yu Jinsi squatted at her feet, untied the bandage on her foot, and shook his head, "No."

Bai Yuning sighed, "Why is there no news from him? Is he still abroad? He hasn't returned to the company either."

Li En on the side said: "If he had returned to China, he would definitely notify you to go to work. He definitely hasn't come back."

Yu Jinsi also nodded, "He probably hasn't come back yet. Don't worry, he's a grown man, what can happen to him?"

Yu Jinsi also tried to contact Ji Zihan, but there was no news. Maybe he was too busy with work?

She threw the bandage away and said, "The wound on your foot looks fine now. Try walking around. Does it still hurt?"

Bai Yuning stood up and took a few steps.

"Yeah, it's okay, thank you. The task that President Ji assigned to you is considered completed. Are you going abroad next?"

Yu Jinsi thought for a moment and said, "I should go home first and see my dad. I haven't seen him for several years."

"Oh, okay. Be safe then. I'm going back to the apartment. Call me if you need any help."

Yu Jinsi nodded and went back to his room to pack his luggage.

Bai Yuning then turned around and hugged Li En.

"Xiao En, I'll be back to the apartment in a bit. My injury has healed. I've really troubled your aunt these past few days. She cooks different kinds of meals every day."

"Ah...you're leaving now? Why don't you stay a few more days?"

Li En hugged Bai Yuning reluctantly.

Bai Yuning smiled and said, "Maybe next time. I haven't been back to the apartment since I came back, so I have to go back and take a look."

Li En pulled her along: "Why don't you leave after dinner? Wait until my brother comes back?"

"No, I'll just tell Brother Yuze on WeChat, and I'll treat you guys to a meal next time. It's still early, and I can clean up the house when I get home."

Bai Yuning finally rejected Li En's suggestion that she stay for dinner.

She was in a hurry to leave because she was distracted by the fact that there had been no news about Ji Zihan. She had no energy to do other things and was feeling a little low. However, if she stayed at the Li family's, Li En and Li Yuze would sooner or later find out.

Afraid of making them worry and causing them more trouble, she decided to go back to her apartment and stay alone.

When I feel sad, I can cry a little to relieve the pain.
