Walking out of the company with Zhou Fan, Ye Xi smiled and said goodbye to him.
Zhou Fan also smiled and said goodbye, but after taking a few steps, he suddenly thought of something, so he turned around and called, "Ye Xi."
Ye Xi stopped in her tracks, "What's up? Anything else?"
Zhou Fan came back and stood in front of Ye Xi.
He was a bit embarrassed and said, "Well, there's something I want to ask you for help with, if you don't mind."
Ye Xi was fairly familiar with Zhou Fan from university, so she smiled and asked, "What's up?"
Zhou Fan hesitated for a moment, then decided to be straightforward, "Here's the thing, during the New Year my mom kept pressuring me about marriage, and we had a bit of a tiff. The old lady held a grudge and got sick, so to put her mind at ease, I lied and told her I have a girlfriend. Now, it's getting hard to keep that up, and I don't have any female friends around right now, so could you help me by pretending to be my girlfriend once?"
