Chapter 167: [Extra] Do you know what liking is?

Chapter 167: Chapter 167: [Extra] Do you know what liking is?

Jiang Yurou looked up at the dilapidated house in front of her, her brows slightly furrowed. This was... a slum?

As the man gradually disappeared from view, Jiang Yurou withdrew her gaze and silently noted the address in her heart.

To make sure she would meet Zhou Ming the next day, Jiang Yurou rushed out of her apartment as soon as day broke.

When she passed the bun shop, Jiang Yurou paused, thinking Zhou Ming probably hadn’t had breakfast yet...

After a moment’s thought, Jiang Yurou entered the bun shop, "Owner, I’ll take two servings of meat buns and two cups of soy milk."

Actually, she rarely ate breakfast early, except sometimes when Tan Bo would suddenly come over and bring her breakfast. Usually, she combined her breakfast with lunch.

Just as she thought of Tan Bo, his call came through while she was paying.

Jiang Yurou decisively hung up and finished paying first.

After leaving the bun shop, Tan Bo called again.

"Tan Bo, what’s up with calling so early in the morning?" Jiang Yurou answered the phone while continuing to walk forward.

"I’ve booked a ticket back to Jing City this morning, and I’m currently on my way to the airport." His voice sounded lazy, as if he hadn’t rested well the night before.

Jiang Yurou was somewhat surprised and asked, "Why the sudden return? Weren’t you supposed to be on a business trip for three days?"

It had only been two days...

"The work was completed, so I came back early."

"Oh."

"Just ’oh’?" Tan Bo’s voice was filled with dissatisfaction.

Jiang Yurou laughed softly, "What else do you expect, Mr. Tan? You surely don’t want me to come to the airport to pick you up now, do you?"

"That’s not impossible," came Tan Bo’s slow response.

Jiang Yurou rolled her eyes, "Get lost."

"Just kidding. I’ll call you when I arrive, let’s have a meal together."

Every time he returned from a business trip, Tan Bo would usually ask Jiang Yurou out for a meal, so she wasn’t surprised, but today was a little different.

Jiang Yurou frowned gorgeously as she stopped at a traffic light junction, apologetically saying, "Find someone else, Tan Bo; I have something on today."

There was silence for two seconds on the other end, followed by a light laugh, "What, you’re going on a blind date?"

"Umm... sort of." Meeting the man of her dreams was nearly the same thing.

Hearing this, Tan Bo wasn’t particularly shocked, as Jiang Yurou had played such pranks before, and he casually said, "Jiang Yurou, it’s not April Fool’s Day; don’t try to fool me with that trick."

"I’m not fooling you, I’m serious."

Tan Bo still didn’t believe her and teased, "Alright, stop acting, or you’ll be the next triple-time Best Actress winner."

"Brother Tan Bo..." Jiang Yurou took a deep breath, her tone suddenly serious, "I’ve fallen for someone, and I’m going to meet him now."

Jiang Yurou never used to believe in love at first sight, thinking it too illusionary, but now, she believed.

Because after she went home last night, her dreams were filled with that man, his eyebrows, his lips, his nose, his hair... all of it vividly etched in her mind.

Tan Bo dropped his casual demeanor, his tone becoming somewhat stern, "When did this happen?"

"Last night."

"Last night?" Tan Bo suddenly laughed, then his voice turned solemn, "Jiang Yurou, are you okay? You just met that guy for a day and you’re saying you like him?"

"I just met him yesterday, but I really like him."

The moment Yurou saw Zhou Ming in the bar last night, she made up her mind deep down that one day, she must win this man over.

"I don’t even want to talk about it, do you even know what liking someone means?" Tan Bo was really annoyed, his voice, which was lazy at first, now grew much louder.

"Of course I know."

"You know nothing."

Jiang Yurou: "..."

The more Tan Bo said this, the more uncomfortable Jiang Yurou felt in her heart. What did he mean she didn’t know what liking someone was, as if he were so knowledgeable.

Jiang Yurou didn’t want to argue with Tan Bo any longer, she said irritably, "I’ll prove it to you."

"How are you going to prove it?"

"Wait till I make him mine and show you how happy we are."

Tan Bo nearly vomited blood in anger, realizing it was all just wishful thinking on her part. Angrily he said, "Jiang Yurou, if you dare go after that man, wait till I get back and I will skin you alive."

If he could, Tan Bo really wished he could fly to Jiang Yurou’s side right now and securely lock her by his side.

"You’re not my dad, what right do you have to control me!" Jiang Yurou was also getting annoyed.

"I’m your brother, and a brother is like a father, round it up and I am your dad." Tan Bo didn’t even know what he was saying anymore, but he simply didn’t want Jiang Yurou going after that man.

"What is all this nonsense!"

"Anyway, you can’t go after that man, we’ll talk when I get back."

"That might be too late." Jiang Yurou looked up at the old residential building in front of her, "Because I’m already here."

At that moment, Tan Bo deeply regretted having to be on a business trip at such a time.

"I have to go, hanging up now." Jiang Yurou’s voice suddenly became hurried.

"Jiang Yurou, that guy better be handsomer than Daniel Wu!" Tan Bo’s roar came through the phone, but no sooner had he finished speaking than the call was cut off.

Afterward, Jiang Yurou set her phone to silent mode and exchanged glances with Zhou Ming, who was already at the stairwell, giving him a big smile.

But Zhou Ming’s gaze, besides the initial flash of surprise when he first saw her, showed no further emotion.

A few seconds later, Jiang Yurou took a step towards him, "I came here on a whim, never thinking I’d actually run into you."

"How did you know I live here?" Zhou Ming looked straight at Jiang Yurou’s face, his gaze almost as if he were trying to see through her.

Yurou, feeling a bit guilty, shifted the subject, "That’s not important, I brought you some steamed buns and soy milk before I came here; they should still be warm."

As Jiang Yurou was about to hand over the breakfast to Zhou Ming, she heard his somewhat cold voice, "Were you following me?"

Caught red-handed, Jiang Yurou couldn’t help feeling embarrassed and touched her nose, "You wouldn’t give me your contact details, otherwise, I wouldn’t have followed you."

"Of course, I didn’t mean any harm by following you, I really just wanted to get to know you," Jiang Yurou added quickly.

Zhou Ming, who had been through a lot in society, could tell when someone was lying.

Looking at the girl in front of him, he didn’t know what to say, "Don’t do things like this again."

"No problem," Jiang Yurou responded with a smile.

Zhou Ming glanced at the steamed buns in Jiang Yurou’s hands, then took them over, "And don’t bring me these things anymore, let this be the meal you said you’d treat me to last night."
