Chapter 67: The aquarium (2/2)
Also, why wasn’t he intimidated by the intimate distance between us? It was something that affected me so much.
As I stirred the warm milk I had heated up from the pan, I noticed a bag of salt in the kitchen. I coldly laughed. Haha. Suyang, after you drink my “delicious” milk, I hope you will sleep well…
“Boss, your milk is ready! Savour it slowly, I am going to return to my room now.” I handed him the milk and rushed back to my room in quick steps.
“1, 2, 3!” I locked my bedroom door as I leaned on it and counted to three. Then, as expected, I heard Suyang choking and his footsteps headed towards my direction.
“Hahaha!” I covered my mouth as I snickered secretly.
“Lin Yixin! How could you be so despicable to mix salt into the milk? Come out! If you’re not happy with me, we’ll deal with it face to face!” Suyang knocked on my door. It sounded like he wanted to break it down.
Deal with it face to face?! You think I’m an idiot? As a common citizen, how could I argue against you, leader?
“Umm, boss, did the milk turn salty? Perhaps it’s expired? It’s rather late now. I have to rest. Tomorrow, I’ll buy new milk and replace your expired milk!” I tried my best to suppress my laughter and made my voice sound as normal as possible.
“Lin Yixin! I could hear you laughing! Come out!”
“Huh? Boss, you heard wrong. I-I’m not laughing. I’m going to sleep. You should sleep too!”
Then, I ran to my bed and rolled on it.
The moment I envisioned Suyang’s current eye bulging expression from the outside of my room, I wanted to smile. Today was a day worthy of being commemorated. The common people have successfully caused an uprising against the leader! This was the first step to victory. Long live the revolution!

“Ahhh!” I was so exhausted early in the morning. I had bitter feelings towards Suyang as I got up with difficulty. In order to complete Suyang’s assigned mission, I had to take the bus for two hours. I was the first visitor to the aquarium.
For the first time in my life, I was so sick of looking at fishes that I felt like vomiting.
Serious, weren’t they all just swimming around? To me, the fishes all look relatively similar. It’s like how Caucasians cannot tell the difference between Asians, and how Asians cannot tell the difference between Caucasians.
After observing for a long period of time, I decided I didn’t want to eat any fishes for at least a month.
But as I attentively scrutinized the fish photos I had taken, I had a sudden thought that perhaps I should be a photographer.
While I was planning to halfheartedly stroll around the aquarium to finish my mission, I suddenly noticed a very familiar figure with her back facing me.
I took another look. That woman…..isn’t that Mi Fan? Why's she at the aquarium?
I finally understood the line “When you search high and low, you will not find what you want. But when you’re not searching, it’ll be right in front of you.”
If Suyang knew I encountered Mi Fan in the aquarium, he would go insane!
I secretly hid at a corner and continued to observe her. Soon, she left with a staff member.
Although I wasn’t finished with Suyang’s mission, I wasn’t going to let a big fish escape from me! I could tell that Mi Fan was going to disappear from my field of vision. So, I rushed to follow as I got onto a taxi.
“Driver, please help me follow that vehicle in front of you.”
“Miss, are you trying to track someone down? That is not good. If the cops think you’re following someone around, you might be considered a psycho and locked up.” The driver still hadn’t moved his car. He was wasting time as he lectured me.
I was at a loss for words. But time waits for no one. So, my anxious heart began to beat faster and faster. I had no choice but to fabricate a story. “Uncle, she is a mistress! I am suspecting that she is sleeping with my husband. So, please catch up to her! Or else I won’t be able to get the proof that I need! I’m begging you!”
