For Fan Shengmei, she had never stepped foot in such a high-end place to dine, let alone eaten alone in a room with a man. These novel experiences left her feeling both nervous and exhilarated. However, the hundred thousand yuan had been securely deposited; this was concrete reality. It meant that from today on, whenever she wished, she could finally bid farewell to that crowded shared apartment life.

Chen Mu noticed her distress and said with concern, "You should answer it; it might be something important." Only then did Fan Shengmei answer.

Fan Shengmei had heard this rhetoric so often her ears were calloused.
