Chapter 366: Chapter 366

Zhu Shanshan didn’t even want to weigh the goods, ready to just pay the money and be done with it.

It was only under Yang Fan’s insistence that she reluctantly went through the process of weighing.

Although they were close, Yang Fan felt that it was better to keep things separate when it came to money; otherwise, it could lead to hidden problems in the future.

After spending one hundred sixty thousand, Yang Fan’s net profit amounted to two hundred ten thousand.

The dismal state of the Ginseng Market had truly made Yang Fan’s success.

This venture had indeed stabilized his position.

As long as the Ginseng Market continued in its unpredictable state, Yang Fan could make a fortune even if he had to search for Codonopsis all over the world. He should be able to pay off Zhang Yulan’s loan quickly and save his first pot of gold.

After Zhu Shanshan settled the bill, Yang Fan also squared things up with Zhao Wu, shared some of the earnings as a reward for Pan Xiaoxia’s hard work, and then asked Zhao Wu to take Pan Xiaoxia back.

From this trip to Lin Jing, they each had their own gains.

After Zhao Wu and Pan Xiaoxia left, only Yang Fan and Zhu Shanshan remained in Old Zhou’s shop.

Though the door was wide open, the temperature in the room quietly rose, as if strong pheromones were drifting through the air.

"Fanzi, you go to the Sichuan restaurant opposite and ask the landlady to arrange a private room for you," Zhu Shanshan said softly.

Yang Fan looked surprised, "We’re going there?"

"It’s more convenient over there. I have a good relationship with Fan Sisi, and she can set aside a room for us while also keeping an eye on my store," Zhu Shanshan explained, "If the two of us leave together, it’s easy to be spotted by some people. Although I don’t care if Old Zhou discovers us or not, it seems to affect your relationship with him, so let’s be a bit cautious."

Yang Fan couldn’t think of a better solution at the moment, so he reluctantly agreed.

But going to Fan Sisi’s place made him feel somewhat embarrassed.

After all, the two of them were also involved...

"Then I’ll go over first," Yang Fan said, lacking confidence.

Zhu Shanshan’s open actions didn’t conceal anything from Fan Sisi; she was definitely going to find out.

This seemed like a recipe for trouble...

Yet he couldn’t think of a better solution, so he bit the bullet and left.

The Delong Wanshu Sichuan Restaurant was quiet, following the peak dining time.

Today, Fan Sisi was working personally, dozing off at the bar.

With a love for period attire, she was dressed in a light gray cheongsam with an ink painting pattern, her hair meticulously pinned up with a jade hairpin, looking every part the lady from a traditional aristocratic family of ancient times.

The weather was rather hot, leaving fine beads of sweat on the tip of her nose, making her fair complexion look tempting and enchanting.

Yang stood by the bar for a while without even noticing her.

The waitress was napping on the table, and Sisi’s head was nodding off, with no intention of opening her eyes.

Yang picked up a ballpoint pen from the bar and gently poked Sisi’s tightly closed lips with it.

"Hmm... what are you doing?"

Sisi murmured as if in feigned annoyance, waving her hand dismissively.

She seemed to take him for a waiter disturbing her.

Yang poked her with the pen again, and this time, Sisi suddenly opened her eyes wide, "You..."

Once she clearly saw who was in front of her, Sisi’s crystal-clear face quietly flushed with color.

"Why have you come?" Sisi asked.

She seemed suddenly a bit nervous.

I don’t know if she was scared that Yang Fan was going to explore the mysteries of the body with her again.

"I... um, have something." Yang Fan didn’t know how to explain to Fan Sisi at the moment.

"You... you couldn’t be? Surely not, right?" Fan Sisi asked nervously.

Yang Fan chuckled, "Do you have to be so tense?"

"I’m not tense, why would I be tense?" Fan Sisi immediately raised her tone and said, "Come on, let’s go upstairs and talk."

She glanced at the waiter who had been woken up by the noise and waved at Yang Fan.

The two went up to the second floor, where Fan Sisi then opened a private room.

"I think we need to have a serious talk about that thing, you can’t just look for me every time you want a woman, that’s not right," Fan Sisi said, "Although you got in the car first between the two of us, I think we still need some time to really get to know each other, at least until we’re quite familiar with each other’s personalities, right?"

"I understand," Yang Fan nodded and said.

It seemed like she was ready to treat this as if they were dating.

This was not a good sign.

Yang Fan thought for a moment, then said seriously, "I also need to be honest with you, I have a girlfriend, and more than one at that."

Zhu Shanshan had no intention of keeping their affair from her best friend Fan Sisi; the revelation was bound to come out sooner or later.

It would be better for Yang Fan to spill the beans himself and clarify things.

If they could still be friends with benefits afterwards, that would be great; if not, then so be it.

"Not a few, what do you mean by that? A lot?" Fan Sisi was stunned.

"Not a lot, but... a few," Yang Fan said with an embarrassed smile.

Fan Sisi’s mouth opened slightly, as if Yang Fan’s words had fried her brain.

"Wait a minute, why do I suddenly feel dizzy? Do they know about each other?" Fan Sisi asked.

"Well, they know about half," Yang Fan said.

Fan Sisi’s lips twitched, and she gave Yang Fan a thumbs up, "You’re awesome, big brother!"

Yang Fan: ...

"I can’t be proud. It’s... complicated to explain, but it’s just been unfolding naturally, and it somehow ended up like this," Yang Fan said with a wry smile.

He had expected Fan Sisi would glare at him and call him a scumbag, but instead, she came out with this.

This surprised Yang Fan quite a bit.

"Then you shouldn’t have any obsession with me, right? And you haven’t misunderstood our relationship, have you?" Fan Sisi asked.

Yang Fan shook his head.

That was definitely not going to happen, he saw things very clearly.

Originally, what happened between them was a beautiful accident.

"Since it’s like this, then I’m relieved," Fan Sisi said with a smile, "So I’ll be more direct, I really enjoyed doing that thing with you. If there’s a chance, you can take me or I can take you, basically just sleep together, whoever does whatever is fine."

"So you were afraid I would treat you like a girlfriend?" Yang Fan asked in surprise.

"Uh... I suffer from fear of commitment now, I can’t help it. If you wanted to date me, then I would definitely stop letting you touch me. At the very least, after getting to know each other for about half a year, you might have a chance to touch me again," Fan Sisi said.

"If I feel that we’re not suitable, after half a year you might completely lose the chance. But if you’re like this, then it’s much better; it’s already been so thrilling, right? The occasional play... um, seems pretty good."

"Let’s go, to the room. Let’s celebrate our pleasant communication and our wonderful mutual understanding."
