"Wh-what!?"

Shu Xian couldn't help but hit Wang Lei's shoulder, still talking to him at this time of night—11 PM in the evening.

Wang Lei couldn't help but shook his head as both of them continued eating ice cream that both of them bought from the nearest convenience store, talking about a topic which Shu Xian found foreign.

"You're asking this man what it takes to seduce a man! I'm already telling you what works wonders since I am—infamously—notorious about being flirtatious!"

Shu Xian couldn't help but blush. With her pouting as she took a spoonful of her vanilla ice cream in her mouth, she felt shy talking about this with Wang Lei, Pan An's best friend.

Shu Xian told Wang Lei about what Cai Li had said. She honestly told Wang Lei about Cai Li asking her to make her son fall for her so that he would forget Ruo Xi.

She told Wang Lei about what her and Cai Li did—taking photography sessions and the like and then sending the photos to Pan An.

He laughed out loud when Shu Xian told him his reply when it comes to going to the private beach resort that they have and says that he will definitely come.

"You know, Shu Xian," Wang Lei started, making a comment. "Ma'am Cai Li is right. You have potential to wrap any man around your finger," he added, Shu Xian, shyly looking at him.

"Yeah?"

"Yeah!" Wang Lei scoffed, suddenly remembering his little sister. "My little sister may be best friends with you, but I can't see her dating."

Shu Xian couldn't help but laugh out loud, hearing what he said. With her shaking her head, she then took another spoonful of her ice cream in her mouth, further asking Wang Lei a question.

"So… what do you think should I do to make Pan An… you know… like me?"

"Hmm…"

Wang Lei contemplated for a while. With him furrowing his brows together, he asked her a question instead.

"Let me ask you this, Shu Xian… have you ever fallen in love with someone before?"

Being thrown this question, Shu Xian sighed and shook her head to say no, giving Wang Lei the answer that he needed.

"No. Never. Even having crushes is beyond me."

"Aaah… this may be a dilemma," Wang Lei said, cocking his head to the side. "What if it turns the other way around—you falling for him instead since you're doing things to make him like you?"

Shu Xian blushed, blinking her eyes a few times.

"I-is it really difficult to make him like me?"

"Uh, kinda," Wang Lei said, scratching the back of his head. "With him still remembering Ruo Xi, it can be difficult. We fought about her, too, a while ago," he added, making Shu Xian sigh once more.

"Then maybe making Pan An like me is something impossible," she commented, making Wang Lei shake his head.

"I only said it is difficult, but I didn't say that it is impossible."

Wang Lei put his ice cream and spoon down for a while, already focusing on the young lady beside him.

"I bet ya, since you told me about you giving him a necktie for a present, he's definitely going to wear it."

Shu Xian didn't know why, but she gulped, nervous of what Wang Lei is going to suggest next.josei

"If both of you are alone, try to do something that would surprise him. Why not… pull his necktie and stare straight into his eyes. When your face is near his, then you say, 'Sorry, I was just seeing if the necktie is durable.'"

With that said, Shu Xian couldn't help but gasp aloud, hitting Wang Lei once more on his arm.

"Are you crazy!?" The young lady reacted, her face beet red. "Baby steps! I can't do such thing!"

Wang Lei can't help but laugh out loud. Both of them were grateful that Pan An is out cold, both of them able to talk this loud in the living room.

"Alright, alright… since you make lunch, why not you put a secret letter in the lunch box saying: 'Work hard, professor!' with a kiss emoji at the end."

Shu Xian couldn't help but narrow her eyes at Wang Lei.

"Someone as mature as Pan An… would like this?"

"Hey!" Wang Lei shrugged his shoulders, "Some men also like women who act cute towards them like this!"

Shu Xian then arched a brow at Wang Lei, doubting what he said.

"You think he'll like this?"

"I don't know, but it's worth the shot. It makes him wonder and think of you, no? Like you said, baby steps. Take this time to try things out and see what he likes and dislikes."

"Hmm…"

Shu Xian contemplated for a while, thinking if this is indeed going to be effective. She couldn't help but feel worried and shy, not knowing what to do.

"Do you think that he will find this… suspicious?"

"That's why I told you to take him by surprise! If you do this every day, then it would really be suspicious," Wang Lei answered, patting Shu Xian's shoulder. "You're an overthinker, no? Well, I can't blame you. You haven't experienced such stuff before," he added, Shu Xian, now getting her dessert from the table.

"Yeah… well, let's just say that I have to roll with it," she added, Wang Lei, nodding in agreement with what she said.

"Well, let's have a name for this operation," he said, already grinning ear to ear.

"What?"

"Operation: Fancy Me, Professor!"

With Wang Lei's joke, Shu Xian couldn't help but laugh, both of them enjoying the night together as they proceeded eating their ice cream this late at night.
