Chapter 168 Reward for correcting mistakes

Liang Man wanted to ask her to have lunch with her, but she declined because she said she was not feeling well.

Back at the apartment, she paced back and forth in the corridor, her eyes fixed on the anti-theft door of Ji Zebei's house. After a long time of ideological struggle, she finally stepped forward and rang the doorbell.

Soon someone opened the door, but the person who opened the door was not Ji Zebei, but a foreign woman with deep eyebrows.

The woman has beautiful blond hair and blue eyes.

"Who are you looking for?" The woman spoke fluent Chinese.

Lu Ran was stunned for several seconds, she never imagined that such a woman would appear in Ji Zebei's home one day.

As far as she knew, Ji Zebei would not let women come in and out of his house casually.

"Miss, did you hear what I said?" The woman looked at her in surprise, and asked again, "Who are you looking for?"

She opened her mouth, but Ji Zebei's name was stuck in her throat and she couldn't say it.

She fled in a panic, even forgetting that her home was nearby, and instead rushed into the elevator room in a daze.

When the elevator was slowly descending, she finally regained her senses. With a beep, the elevator door opened, and there was a man and a woman waiting for the elevator outside.

She didn't get out of the elevator, but stood aside.

The young men and women looked at her strangely, but they still walked into the elevator.

When the elevator reached the eighteenth floor, she walked out and instinctively looked towards Ji Zebei's house. The dark brown security door was closed tightly.

Thinking of the beautiful blonde woman just now, she didn't understand why she ran away. That woman was at Ji Zebei's house, which didn't mean their relationship was unusual.

Even though she thought so, she didn't have the courage to knock on the door of Ji Zebei's house again.

She finally went home, lying on the sofa like mud.

The thick foundation on her face made her feel extremely uncomfortable. She got up, went to the bathroom to remove her makeup, and then got into the quilt and fell asleep.

After sleeping until night, the first thing she did when she opened her eyes was to pick up her phone, and there was a message from Ji Zebei.

He has lifted her blacklist.

"Did you come to see me today?"

Looking at the message he sent, she thought, it should be the blond woman who told him.

She replied with an 'um', but Ji Zebei didn't reply immediately.

She got up and went into the kitchen to find something to eat, but there was only half a bottle of mineral water left in the refrigerator.

She decisively ordered takeaway on her mobile phone.

Half an hour later, the doorbell rang, and she went to open the door. There were two people standing outside, one was Ji Zebei and the other was a delivery man in overalls.

She took the meal from the delivery man first, and thanked the delivery man with a smile. After the delivery man left, her gaze shifted to Ji Zebei's face.

The man's face was calm, and he stood upright with his hands in his coat pockets.

"Is something wrong?"

Ji Zebei didn't beat around the bush and explained, "The person you met today is Sophie, a friend I met abroad."

"You have a good relationship?"

"generally."

"General relationship, you will let her into your door?"

"You're jealous." The man's tone was firm.

Lu Ran fell silent, she didn't close the door, but turned around with the takeaway, walked to the sofa and sat down, put the takeaway on the coffee table, opened the package, and ignored the man standing outside the door who was eating takeaway.

Ji Zebei stepped into the room, closed the door, and sat next to Lu Ran very quietly.

Lu Ran's eating behavior can be described as 'no food for three days', it's almost unbearable.

He looked away and stared at Da Huang on the cat climbing frame with a pair of bright black eyes staring at Lu Ran without blinking.

Rhubarb licked his lips, jumped down from a high place, walked to the tea table with a very light leap, and then squatted on the coffee table, rubbing his head on Lu Ran's cheek from time to time, taking advantage of Lu Ran's inattention. Stretch out the furry little paws from time to time, the cautious mode of trying to steal a piece of meat from the lunch box.

"You let the cat serve?" He tilted his head and glanced at Lu Ran.

Lu Ran looked up at him, and said with a displeased face, "On the long-legged cat, it can jump wherever it wants, and I can't control it."

Ji Zebei: ...

Cats are really difficult to train, just like briquettes. The little guy always wants to jump on his bed to sleep with him, but he has some resistance, and he would rather give up the bed to briquettes.

The briquettes are a little better than rhubarb, they never jump on the table, let alone enter his kitchen, even if he is making delicious food, the briquettes always squat at the kitchen door and watch him.

Perhaps it was because of being attacked by him once, the briquettes became very well-behaved.

When Lu Ran finished her meal, Ji Zebei stretched out his hand to help her clean up the lunch box on the coffee table.

There were still a few pieces of meat left in the lunch box, and he just threw it into the trash can.

Rhubarb was almost impatient with him, and gave him a 'meow' ferociously, as if protesting that he would not give him a piece of meat.

Lu Ran's food delivery is relatively strong, and he likes spicy food, but cats can't eat spicy food.

He glanced at Da Huang with a half-smile, and with a wave of his hand, Da Huang jumped off the coffee table, swayed slowly in the living room a few times, and jumped onto the cat climbing frame to take a nap.

Lu Ran stretched her face until her face was deformed, and she nestled on the sofa to relax. Ji Zebei took a piece of paper from the drawer and wiped the corners of her mouth.

The man's gentle and careful actions made her heart warm.

She stared at him blankly, and asked after a long time, "What are you doing here?"

"Obviously you found me first."

"So, you came here to know why I went to you today?"

Ji Zebei raised his chin solemnly, "That's right."

"Actually, there is nothing special. I just want to tell you that I take back what I said last night. I was angry at the time. I was talking nonsense."

"Can you stick to the time we agreed?"

"Of course."

What she said impulsively yesterday made her regret the whole night.

The man stared at her, approached her very suddenly, and pressed a kiss on her forehead.

Her heart skipped a beat, unexpectedly and pleasantly.

"This is a reward for you to correct your mistakes." After Ji Zebei finished speaking, he got up and left.

She watched him go to the porch, watched him push open the door, and couldn't help asking: "That Sophie...is really just a friend?"

The man paused, then turned around, "I still can't remember Sophie's full name, it's a long list, what do you think I have to do with her?"

Hearing this, Lu Ran couldn't help but burst out laughing with a 'puchi'.

Ji Zebei also laughed, reminded her not to go to bed right away, and said softly, "See you tomorrow." He walked out and gently closed the door of her house.

She lay down on the sofa and stretched, thinking that Ji Zebei couldn't even remember Sophie's full name, she felt inexplicably happy.

That Sophie asked her who she was looking for, that was Ji Zebei's home, and he was the only one living there, who could she turn to?

Picking up the phone, he sent Ji Zebei a kiss emoji.

The man replied in seconds, "Lie down when you're full, and think you're not fat enough?"

As soon as she sat up, she replied, "I'm not lying down."

"I pretended to believe it."

"Also, I'm not fat."
