100,000/Hour Professional Stand-in Chapter 44.2: Please Transfer 1,000,000 Dollars To My Account (2)

Ji Fanyin thought that this ‘self-recommendation’ incident would be the only hiccup she would face on the first day of her break. Who would have thought that she would receive a call from Li Xiaoxing at 1 A.M. in the morning, shortly after she had fallen asleep?

Li Xiaoxing’s voice sounded a little strained. “I received a call from Ji Xinxin.”

Ji Fanyin rolled on her bed with her eyes still closed and wrapped the blanket tightly around her. “Then?”

“You can tell me what to do.”

“I’ve already gone through what you have to do at this stage. You should be able to deal with a phone call.” Ji Fanyin let out a yawn.

“Ji Fanyin. I’m not paying you to hear your complaints,” said Li Xiaoxing placidly.

Ji Fanyin yawned yet again. She couldn’t muster the energy to argue with him, so she waited for the ringing to end before replying, “Calm yourself down first. Put the call on speakerphone when you pick up later so that I can listen in. Check your WeChat for
