I'm In Love With the Guy I Grew Up With-Chapter 993: The Game Is About to Begin

Huh?

The idol has something to ask her?

No need to ask! Of course, help him!

However, Ning Xixi was ecstatic inside, but still maintained a calm and composed demeanor as she asked, "What would you like me to help you with?"

Ou Fengyi took a sip of water to moisten his throat and said, "I haven’t finalized the cover for my new album yet; could I trouble you to draw the cover for me? As for compensation, I’ll do my best to make sure you’re satisfied."

Oh my!

The idol is asking for artwork?

Ning Xixi was so excited that she wanted to start drawing for him immediately, as for the pay? She simply didn’t care at all!

But then, she feared she might not do well, so after a moment of consideration, she nervously said, "I’m worried you won’t be satisfied with my drawing..."

Ou Fengyi chuckled softly, "I won’t be dissatisfied, because—I believe in your talent!"

Wow! Just one word from the idol was like adrenaline coursing through Ning Xixi; she was incredibly thrilled, "I’ll draw it as soon as I get home! Actually, I’ll start drawing now!"

"No need to rush. Let’s do this: let’s exchange contact information first. I have another event to attend later, but if possible, could we chat through WeChat?" Ou Fengyi tactfully asked Ning Xixi’s opinion.

Ning Xixi nodded like a pecking chick, "Sure!"

Ou Fengyi smiled as he took out his phone, exchanged phone numbers and WeChat IDs with Ning Xixi, then gracefully got up to say a courteous goodbye, leaving suavely.

Even after he walked far away, Ning Xixi still rested her chin in her hands, gazing dreamily at his silhouette.

Ji Qing teased, "If Yebai sees you like this, he’ll probably rush back from abroad in a hurry!"

"Uh..." Ning Xixi scratched her head in embarrassment, "Mr. Ji, I’m sorry you had to see that..."

"What did you call me?"

"Mr. Ji."

"Hmm?" Ji Qing put on a stern face and pretended to be angry, "Call me Mr. Ji one more time and I’ll be upset."

"Then what should I call you?"

"Think for yourself."

Ning Xixi chewed on her finger, pondering for a long while, before hesitantly calling him "Godfather."

Ji Qing immediately went "Eh!" with a satisfied expression.

Ning Xixi was both amused and exasperated, "Godfather, I didn’t know you had such a childish side."

"You’re getting bold, daring to tease even me?"

"Hehe." Ning Xixi smiled brightly and moved closer to Ji Qing, asking mysteriously, "Godfather, you can’t tell Ji Yebai about today."

If Dabai finds out she was infatuated with another man, she’ll be in for a world of trouble /(ㄒoㄒ)/~~

"Then you’ll have to pay for my silence." Ji Qing said, taking advantage, "How about visiting this lonely old man once a week?"

"Sure, sure, no problem!"

The two of them chatted happily in the study, completely unaware that Ou Fengyi hadn’t actually left.

He leaned against the wall, listening to their conversation, a slight smile on his lips.

The game is about to begin.

...

Ji Qing was knowledgeable and witty, making it very comfortable to chat with him. Unconsciously, Ning Xixi ended up talking with him until the evening.

"About your parents’ ashes..." Ji Qing suddenly brought up a heavy topic, "Don’t be too sad, there will always be a way."

Ning Xixi sniffled, feeling hurt, "Yes, I know."

Ji Yebai tried many methods but couldn’t get Ou Jundao to reveal anything. Ning Xixi’s parents’ ashes remain missing to this day.

Dad, Mom... I will definitely bring your ashes back home! Ning Xixi vowed in her heart.
