Chapter 281 The Man Who Lost from the Start



Bai Xiaoruo thought it was Xuan Mingyu calling, but when she saw the caller ID, she was annoyed once again.

Sure enough, he forgot about her as soon as he got back and didn't contact her anymore.

This is a call from Ji Ziqian.

Bai Xiaoruo took a deep breath, relaxed, and then answered the phone.

"Happy New Year, Ziqian."

Happy New Year, Xiaoruo! It's been so long since we last saw each other.

"Yes, I was just afraid of disturbing your work, Brother Ziqian. I heard you've been promoted to a full-time position. Congratulations!"

[There's no question of bothering each other between us. You can contact me anytime, anywhere if you want.]

[By the way, Xiaoruo, I have some good news for you. I'm at the airport now. Want to guess where I'm headed?]

"Airport? Are you going home for the Chinese New Year?" Bai Xiaoru thought about it and realized that didn't seem right. Ziqian's workplace was in L City, so he didn't need to take a plane to go home for the Chinese New Year.

[I won't be spending this Chinese New Year at home. I'm going to the US on a business trip.]

"Huh? What kind of company is that? Making people go on business trips during the Chinese New Year is so inhumane!" Bai Xiaoruo thought that Ji Ziqian's company would have already gone on holiday for the New Year at this time, but she didn't expect that he would still have to work.

[Yes, I didn't expect it either. It's my first time going to the US, and I don't know anyone there. I hope everything goes well.]

"Yes, yes, Brother Ziqian, I'm in the US right now. If you come over, you can come find me. Although I don't know much about tourist spots, I do know a few good restaurants that I can recommend."

[Really? What a coincidence! Then I'll have to trouble you to be my tour guide in Country M. Aren't you spending the Lunar New Year in L City either?]

"Yeah, I think it's such a coincidence too~ I'm spending the Lunar New Year at his parents' house this year. I should stay a few days until after the New Year before going back."

In fact, this is not a coincidence.

A few days ago, when Ji Ziqian was following Bai Xiaoruo's WeChat Moments, he saw that she had posted a picture of herself boarding a plane, saying that she would be spending the Chinese New Year in the United States. The company had not originally arranged for him to go on a business trip to the United States, and it was Ji Ziqian who applied for it himself.
