Chapter 27 Stubborn
Shi Jin noticed Bai Zhenzhu's blatant gaze, shifted slightly uncomfortably, and then reminded her, "Bai Zhenzhu, you're a girl! Not a pervert!"
"Of course I know I'm a girl, but who says girls can't appreciate a boy's physique?"
Her boastful words only made Shi Jin seem petty.
Shi Jin knew that she had a lot of fallacies and heresies, so he didn't argue with her.
He slowly sat down on the sofa, spread his hands, glanced at her indifferently, and said sarcastically, "Didn't you say you missed me?"
Bai Zhenzhu smiled slyly, then slowly moved closer to Shi Jin, and finally boldly sat on his lap.
Shi Jin froze, never expecting Bai Zhenzhu to be so proactive.
Almost instinctively, he pushed the person away.
Bai Zhenzhu was pushed aside, looking at him with a wronged expression.
She said angrily, "Shi Jin, you pushed me!"
Her slightly nasal tone was particularly cute, and her eyes were playful, which made the complaint less offensive.
"If I don't push you, do you expect me to let you keep sitting on me?"
"But I miss you, can't I even hug you?"
Bai Zhenzhu always seemed to have a perfectly legitimate reason to throw a tantrum, giving others the false impression that they should reflect on their own behavior.
"White Pearl, I'm not a man you can just hug anytime."
"Then tell me, how can I hug you and touch your abs?"
"Never in this lifetime!" Shi Jin almost roared as he said this.
White Pearl shrank her neck like a startled fawn.
He mumbled, "If it's impossible, then why did you agree to see me? I thought you missed me too..."
Shi Jin then realized his own contradiction.
He wanted to explore the white pearl, but resented her initiative.
He was speechless for a moment.
Bai Zhenzhu stood up and looked at him with such indifference for the first time.
"Since you don't welcome me at all, then I'll leave!" Bai Zhenzhu said defiantly.
She turned away sadly, silently counting in her heart: "1, 2, 3..."
"Wait a moment!"
A triumphant smile spread across Bai Zhenzhu's face; she knew Shi Jin wouldn't let her go so easily.
She understood men's inherent flaws better than anyone.
However, the moment she turned her head, she quickly transformed into the pitiful little rabbit.
Her eyes seemed to be filled with tears, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she looked so pitiful that I felt sorry for her.
"Bai Zhenzhu, I'm hungry. Have dinner with me," Shi Jin said awkwardly, giving her a way out.
Bai Zhenzhu chuckled inwardly, but on the surface, she pretended to be reluctant and replied, "Alright then."
...
Shi Jin called the housekeeper over to cook.
Both of them were a little hungry, so they began to focus on eating.
Halfway through the meal, Bai Zhenzhu's phone rang.
Shi Jin happened to see the note above: Fu Nansheng. He frowned slightly.
Bai Zhenzhu put down her chopsticks and accepted the gift in front of Shi Jin.
A affected, pretentious voice rang out: "Hey, Nansheng~"
"Pearl, where did you go?"
"Oh, it's me. I'm at a friend's house. What's up? Is something the matter?"
When Bai Zhenzhu said the word "friend," she deliberately smiled at Shi Jin, then her gaze lingered for only a second before casually looking away.
"Pearl, there are some things I want to tell you in person. Can you see me?"
Bai Zhenzhu said awkwardly, "I'm sorry, Nansheng, my friend seems to need me right now, and I probably can't get away. How about we talk another day?"
Fu Nansheng, sitting opposite him, had no choice but to compromise and said, "Alright then, Pearl, I'll come to your school to find you tomorrow night."
"OK!"
She answered cheerfully, completely ignoring how bad Shi Jin's expression was on the other end.
I had just put my phone down and was about to continue eating when it rang again.
This time it's Gu Siming.
Actually, he called her while Bai Zhenzhu was talking to Fu Nansheng on the phone.
I waited until the call ended before it finally came through.
"Pearl! You finally answered the phone!"
"Yes, Siming, is there something you need?"
"Pearl, everything I said to you today was from the bottom of my heart. I really like you. Can you give me a chance?"
Compared to Fu Nansheng's tactful approach, Gu Siming was very straightforward.
I always want to get an answer.
The phone was very loud, and Shi Jin heard it all.
The expression on his face gradually became intriguing.
Even the look in his eyes deepened as he gazed at her.
Bai Zhenzhu still had that foxy look on her face, twirling her hair with her fingers, then feigning shyness as she said, "Siming, this is too sudden. Can you give me some time to think about it?"
Gu Siming was afraid that if he pressed her any further, he would scare her away, so he patiently and gently said, "Okay, Pearl, no matter how long it takes, I'll wait for you, but I pray that you'll eventually agree to be my girlfriend..."
As soon as Bai Zhenzhu hung up the phone, she heard Shi Jin say sarcastically, "This is the first time I've ever seen a man who likes to be someone's backup plan so much. Can't they see that you're a green tea b*tch?"
Bai Zhenzhu wasn't angry at being mocked. Instead, she innocently asked, "Perhaps you also like green tea, Senior Shi Jin?"
"Even if I like green tea, it can't be you, the kind of green tea that likes to be poured on a man's head."
“But… how will you know if you don’t try?” White Pearl said, seemingly in a provocative tone.
Shi Jin sneered and slowly said, "Bai Zhenzhu, do you think I, Shi Jin, would be so desperate as to like a woman like you?"
Bai Zhenzhu was silent for a few seconds, then said seriously as if she had made a decision: "Shi Jin, do you believe me or not, in less than three months, I will definitely make you fall in love with a woman like me, and you will be completely devoted to me!"
"Three months? Isn't that too long? If you ask me, with your charm, White Pearl, I should have been completely infatuated with you long ago!"
Shi Jin knows how to be sarcastic.
Because he simply doesn't believe it.
In his view, besides lying, Bai Zhenzhu now has another flaw: she loves to brag.
What kind of man is Shi Jin? He only pursues pure love and never cheats on women!
"Shi Jin, you're so stubborn, I really want to know if you have any other parts that are even stubborner than your mouth~"
As they talked, Bai Zhenzhu started teasing him again.
Shi Jin felt a tightness in his chest, and his face instantly turned bright red.
"White pearl!"
