100,000/Hour Professional Stand-in Chapter 40.1: I Refuse (1)

Ji Fanyin walked away with her suitcase in hand. She hitched a ride on one of the suitcase transportation vehicles passing by instead of taking the one specially reserved for Bai Zhou’s usage. 

Bai Zhou looked out of the window to stare at her departing silhouette until she disappeared into the darkness of the night. 

Fetching from the airport… I don’t even have anyone to fetch me, but Ji Fanyin’s ‘little bro’ actually wanted to fetch her from the airport in the middle of the night?
