Professional Stand-in, With an Hourly Salary of 100,000

Chapter 55.2: Bidding Model (2)

Ji Fanyin took a detour to the neighborhoods 24-hour convenience shop to grab some food. While waiting for the staff to wrap up her tea egg, she took out her phone to check on the notifications she had missed. 

The thirteen reservation requests Bai Zhou had made filled her screen. Her bank account balance had increased by nearly 20,000,000 dollars. 

Ji Fanyin thought about it and decided to only approve the reservation request Bai Zhou made for tomorrow. She rejected the other twelve requests and refunded him accordingly. 

Her clients had been making reservations on and off, so an occasional full-day request wasnt that big of a deal to her. However, if she allowed Bai Zhou to do as he pleased, it wouldnt be long before she died of exhaustion.

She paid for her food via WeChat.

On her way back home, she sipped on her warm milk while thinking about how she could change the SOPs for her stand-in business.

First and foremost, I should deter such mass reservations from a single client. I wont be able to take it if I have to work 15 hours a day for an entire fortnight.

Its not like I have to push myself to that extent anymore.

Ji Fanyin roughly drafted up a proposal in her mind. When she got home, she tapped into her WeChat to look up the programmer who had made her reservation app. 

While doing so, she noticed that Chen Yunsheng had sent her quite a few messages. 

He said that it was his birthday, before proceeding to report his schedule for the day. He even posted pictures of what he ate for dinner. 

He concluded his report with: Big sis, are you still at work? When will you be free? Theres no need to reply to my messages if youre exhausted. Have a good rest. Goodnight

Those words looked perfectly normal, but somehow, Ji Fanyin could sense Chen Yunshengs inexplicable anticipation bursting through them. She glanced at the time and saw that there were twenty minutes left before the end of the day. 

She began typing out a response to Chen Yunsheng, writing Ive been busy the whole day, but after a moment of hesitation, she erased her words and went with a call instead. 

While waiting for the call to be picked up, she settled down on her sofa and flipped open her laptop. She looked up the programmers contact and sent him a nudge. 

It isnt even midnight yet. Someone who abides by the 996 philosophy cant possibly be asleep.

Just as she had expected, the programmer swiftly responded with a ?.

She placed her phone on the table first and began typing out her request to the programmer. 

She was on her second sentence when Chen Yunsheng finally picked up the call. His voice was a little muffled, like he was speaking under his blanket. Who is it?

Ji Fanyin answered with a smile, Happy birthday.

There was a sharp inhalation of breath from the other side. It took Chen Yunsheng a second to snap out of his groggy state. Big sis!

Ji Fanyin quickly finished typing out her request and sent it over to the programmer. Now that her hands were free, she settled down on a stool and began taking off her earrings. As she did so, she glanced at her phone screen and noticed that it was completely dark. 

Its a video call, she told him with a chuckle. 

Chen Yunsheng exclaimed with an Ah!. There was slight chaos from the other side of the call, followed by a Pah! sound. A dim yellow night light was switched on. 

A young man with messy hair appeared on the phone screen. He adjusted the angle of the phone with a serious look, causing the video to shake around. When the video finally stabilized, he revealed a radiant smile and said, I thought that I wouldnt hear from you today.

Ji Fanyin took a look at him and said, Wrap yourself tightly in your blanket. Dont catch a cold.

Chen Yunsheng obediently pulled his blanket over and wrapped himself in it. Were you working till now?

Yeah, I just saw your message. Luckily I made it before midnight, said Ji Fanyin. With her earrings in hand, she grabbed her phone and stood up. I wasnt able to prepare anything for your birthday. How about a red packet?

Chen Yunsheng shook his head and answered exuberantly, Ive already received the best present from you!

Ji Fanyin noticed a clump of bed hair by the corner of his head. It swayed around with his vigorous head movement, but it simply refused to drop down, as if it had thoughts of its own. It was weirdly amusing. 

She walked into one of the empty bedrooms and showed Chen Yunsheng the rows of accessory boxes she had on her dressing table. Is it a lot?

Not at all! Theres plenty of room for more! answered Chen Yunsheng right away. 

Ji Fanyin chuckled once again. 

Even words intended to please felt very different coming from an innocent youth as compared to a relationship veteran.
