The Mind-Read Heiress: From Impostor to Family Favorite-Chapter 447 - 262

Chapter 447: Chapter 262

Chapter 447 -262

Ji Yuanzhou didn’t leave right away; he had originally planned to wait here for his sister to finish her business before heading back to their parents’ house together.

After Shen Jingxiu left, he lost interest in the leftovers on the table.

Feeling bored, he simply took out his phone, opened the social media app, and started searching for “Wenyan’s boyfriend.”

As he waited for the search results, his gaze drifted towards the Yunlan Residence across the way.

A man emerged from one of the rooms there, dressed in black clothes and a black mask, making it impossible to clearly see his face.

Ji Yuanzhou guessed he must also be from the entertainment industry; otherwise, there would be no need for such a disguise.

However, since he couldn’t see the face, Ji Yuanzhou quickly redirected his attention.

Meanwhile, the search engine on his phone came up with an answer.

It seemed Wenyan didn’t have a boyfriend, but there were plenty of CP (couple pairing) rumors.

Ji Yuanzhou had no interest in such fabricated information and quickly exited the search interface and put away his phone.

Staying here by himself was exceedingly boring, so he stood up, ready to go outside for a walk.

He enjoyed the atmosphere of a rainy day, and if the rain wasn’t too heavy, he preferred to take a solitary walk in the rain—it made him feel at peace.

But just as he stepped out of his room, he heard laughter coming from the Yunlan Residence across the way.

The voices were not loud, but standing in the hallway, he could just make them out.

“So, we’re really just left to deal with this huge bouquet of flowers ourselves? We could totally take it home, right?”

“Of course, the customer’s confession failed, and the other party didn’t accept the flowers. He surely can’t carry such a big bouquet back by himself, right?”

“Speaking of which, it’s that male celebrity, right? The one, what’s his name?”

“Shh, we know it in our hearts; there’s no need to speak it aloud. Don’t blabber about it once we leave work and exit these doors—we can’t leak the guests’ privacy. If the boss finds out, we’ll get our bonuses docked.”

“Don’t worry, Zhou Jie, I still have that much sense. Those flowers mustn’t have been cheap, right? They seem to be worth at least tens of thousands.”

“Indeed, I heard it’s a new variety cultivated abroad, with a rather peculiar fragrance, shipped over by air overnight. Now it seems we’re the lucky ones.”

“Hmm, they really do smell nice, Zhou Jie. Take a whiff yourself, the scent is indeed different from regular roses. If someone were to spend money like this chasing me, I’d definitely consider it, even if just for the sake of the money. How could she reject him so quickly? From the moment I pushed the flowers in to the heroine hurrying off, it seemed to be less than two minutes in total.”

“That’s not our business to meddle with; let’s get back to work.”

“Alrighty.”

Ji Yuanzhou leaned casually against the door frame, fiddling with his phone.

Although he wasn’t in the habit of eavesdropping on others’ conversations, this time he stayed put and listened until the two Yunlan Residence staff finished talking.

In fact, he could have left through the other end of the hallway, but concerning his good friend’s sister, he subconsciously paid more attention.

It turned out that Shen Jingxiu’s sister hadn’t come here for a date with her boyfriend, but rather someone had confessed to her and been rejected.

Ji Yuanzhou had been considering whether to tell Shen Jingxiu about this discovery.

However, upon reflection, Shen Jingxiu had already gone after his sister. Once the two met, his sister would undoubtedly tell him everything that had happened at Yunlan Residence.

So there was no point in him doing unnecessary work.

He put his phone into the inner pocket of his coat and slowly walked into the misting rain.

The rain tonight was light, and under the warm yellow streetlights, it appeared even finer.

Ji Yuanzhou didn’t mind the light drizzle at all; in fact, he relished it.

As he walked, he suddenly heard a faint ‘pop’ underfoot as if he had stepped on something.

Looking down, he saw a string of charms whose name he couldn’t recall—a sequence strung together with unknown materials, all pink and tender-looking, undoubtedly something a girl would use.

After a moment’s thought, he pulled out a handkerchief from his pocket, bent over, and picked up the pink charms.

He planned to take it to the reception desk. If its owner came back looking for it, the receptionist could simply return it to its rightful owner.

Just as he was wrapping the charm, Ji Yuanzhou noticed the rain above him suddenly stop, and a shadow appeared beside him.

Looking up, to his surprise, someone was holding an umbrella over him.
