Ji Yuanzhou did not leave immediately. He originally planned to wait here for his sister to finish her work so they could go back to their parents' house together.
After Shen Jingxiu left, he lost interest in the leftovers on the table.
Bored, he simply took out his phone, opened a social media app, and searched for the keyword 'Wen Yan's boyfriend'.
While waiting for the search results to appear, his gaze drifted towards Yunlan Residence across the street.
A man came out of the room. He was dressed in black, wearing a black mask, so his face was completely obscured.
Ji Yuanzhou guessed that he must also be someone in the entertainment industry, otherwise there would be no need for him to dress like that.
However, since he couldn't see her face, Ji Yuanzhou quickly looked away.
Meanwhile, the search engine on the phone also provided the answer.
Wen Yan doesn't seem to have a boyfriend, but she does have quite a few romantic partners.
Ji Yuanzhou wasn't interested in this fabricated information, so he quickly exited the search page and put his phone away.
It was so boring to be here all alone, so he stood up and decided to go outside for a walk.
He really enjoys the atmosphere of rainy days. If the rain isn't too heavy, he prefers to take a walk alone in the rain, which makes him feel very peaceful.
However, just as he stepped out of his room, he heard laughter and chatter coming from Yunlan Residence across the street.
The sound wasn't loud, but you could hear it just by standing in the corridor.
"So this huge bouquet of flowers is really just going to be left for us to deal with? We could easily take it home ourselves, right?"
"Of course, since the guest's confession was rejected and the other party didn't accept it, he can't just take such a big bouquet of flowers back with him, can he?"
"By the way, isn't this that male celebrity? The one who's right?"
"Shh, we'll just keep this to ourselves. Don't say it out loud, and don't tell anyone after you leave this room. We can't disclose our customers' privacy. If the boss finds out, we'll lose our bonuses."
"Don't worry, Sister Zhou, I know what I'm doing. These flowers must be expensive, I bet they cost at least tens of thousands of yuan."
"Of course! I heard it's a new variety bred overseas, with a rather unique aroma, and it was airlifted over overnight. This is a real bargain for us."
"Hmm, it smells really good, Sister Zhou. You should smell it too. It's quite different from the scent of regular roses. If someone were to spend money like this while pursuing me, I would seriously consider it, even just for the money. Why did you reject her so quickly? It seems like it was less than two minutes from when I pushed the flowers in until the female lead hurriedly left."
"This is not our business. Let's get back to work."
"Okay."
Ji Yuanzhou leaned casually against the door frame, playing with his phone.
Although he doesn't usually have the habit or quirk of eavesdropping, he still stood there and listened to the two waiters from Yunlanju finish speaking.
He could have easily left from the other end of the corridor, but since it involved his best friend's sister, he subconsciously became more cautious.
It turns out that Shen Jingxiu's sister wasn't here on a date with her boyfriend, but rather because someone confessed their feelings to her, which she then rejected.
Ji Yuanzhou was originally wondering whether or not to tell Shen Jingxiu about this discovery.
But then he thought about it again. Shen Jingxiu had already gone after his sister. Once the two met, his sister would definitely tell him everything that had happened at Yunlan Residence.
Then there's no need for me to do useless work.
He tucked his phone into the inside pocket of his coat and slowly walked into the rain.
The rain tonight was light, appearing even finer under the warm yellow streetlights.
Ji Yuanzhou was not at all bothered by this light drizzle; on the contrary, he enjoyed it.
As he was walking, he suddenly heard a soft 'smack' under his feet, as if he had stepped on something and broken it.
He pulled his foot back and looked down. It was a pendant he couldn't name. He didn't know what it was made of, but it looked pink and delicate, something that only girls would use.
After thinking for a moment, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket, bent down, and picked up the pink pendant.
He planned to put it at the front desk, so that if the owner came back looking for it, the receptionist could simply return it to its rightful owner.
Just as Ji Yuanzhou was about to wrap up the pendant, he noticed that the rain above his head had suddenly stopped, and a shadow seemed to have appeared beside him.
Looking up, he was surprised to see that someone had held an umbrella for him.
He subconsciously glanced at the person holding the umbrella and froze on the spot.
It turned out to be Wen Yan, Shen Jingxiu's adopted sister.
You can tell she's beautiful just by looking at the videos and photos on her phone, but I never expected she'd be so unphotogenic. She's even more beautiful in person than on camera.
Even at such close range, there were absolutely no flaws on her face, and she looked like she was barely wearing any makeup.
"Hello." Wen Yan spoke first, giving Ji Yuanzhou a big smile. Her bright, clear eyes seemed to speak volumes.
"This looks like my phone charm. I accidentally lost it when I left just now."
To prove that what she said was true, Wen Yan even took out her phone.
"Look, with the phone case on, all that's left is a string."
In fact, she didn't need to prove it herself; Ji Yuanzhou would believe her anyway.
How could someone with such a pure smile and sparkling eyes lie over such a small phone charm?
Just by looking at her appearance, I think she is very beautiful.
Ji Yuanzhou quickly withdrew the look of amazement from his eyes and looked at Wen Yan with a hint of apology in his eyes.
