Just Blame Me For Being Blind In the Beginning

Ch 9.Well behaved

Pei Ying looked at the message she just sent, her face covered in black lines.

Why did she hesitate for so long and then end up sending such a dull message...

She really wanted to recall that text, but even if she did, the receiver would still get a notification that a message was recalled... Why was Weixin so annoying. Since they were letting you recall a message, why couldn't they let you do it silently?

Just as she was grumbling about the inhumanity of Weixin, Song Nanchuan's reply popped up.

[Chuan Chuan] Goodnight. ^_^

Pei Ying was caught totally unprepared. What should she reply with?

As she was bewildered about what to do, Song Nanchuan skillfully sent another message. "What have you been up to these two days? I saw that you didn't eat breakfast until after 8, so you're not filming anymore, right?"

Pei Ying stared at the message. She hadn't expected him to be so attentive. He'd even taken note of when she posted about her breakfast...

[Pei Ying] Mm, I haven't had any work after the last project wrapped orz. But the online store I opened with my friend is having a promotion soon, so it's been pretty busy.

[Chuan Chuan] Online store?

[Pei Ying] Mm, for female attire. My main role is being the model.

Song Nanchuan seemed to recall seeing something like this in the files he'd looked over about Pei Ying. "I see. Suits you."

[Pei Ying] (shy) It's just a side job I do with my friend. If I just relied on actor's fees, I'd starve to death.

Song Nanchuan chuckled and his lips curved up slightly. "No need to worry. You'll get more work in due time. When I visited the filming site before, the director praised your acting and said you were better than Tao Tao."

Pei Ying laughed lightly when she read the message. Regardless of how her acting skills compared to Tao Tao's, Tao Tao was still the female lead. But she believed Song Nanchuan's words as well. She would get more work and things would develop in a good direction. As long as she continued to improve herself, she would find the right opportunity.

She'd always been an optimistic person.

As she was replying to Song Nanchuan's message, her phone suddenly started ringing.

Pei Ying stared a bit blankly at the screen. After a moment, her mind was even more blank.

It was Song Nanchuan calling.

She looked at the incoming call as if it were her enemy. After taking a deep breath and tidying her emotions, she picked up. "CEO Song?"

"Mm." It was the same beautiful and clear voice, but coming through the speaker, there seemed to be another charm added to it. "It's too much trouble to type, so I just called.

"...Oh," Pei Ying responded after several seconds.

The person on the other side of the phone seemed to have laughed. Then he said, "Isn't this our first time talking on the phone?"

"It is..." Pei Ying didn't even dare to breath too loudly, afraid that her breathing would give away how nervous she currently was.

"Feels pretty special," Song Nanchuan said, his voice still carrying a smiling tone.

Pei Ying clutched her phone and sat up straight, her face slightly flushed. "CEO Song, are you very busy with work?"

"Mm, a bit." A rare hint of weariness came through in Song Nanchuan's voice. "This client is a bit difficult, and the competitors have more leverage."
