He thought about how everyone else last night reacted as if they had assumed Shijia was his girlfriend, and considering that, it’s possible the manager made such a misunderstanding.

Song Shijia’s mind was a bit confused.

"Why did he send me to your room?"

After all, she was just a fan, and she hadn’t heard any scandals about UT Team members getting involved with fans!

When it came to this issue, Ji Ruofeng’s ears turned red again. He covered his lips with his fist and coughed to disguise it.

He then softly said, "He probably mistook you for my girlfriend..."

"..."

Song Shijia hadn’t thought of this at all, and her face gradually started to burn.

"They must have misunderstood," she felt both awkward and ashamed, and after a while, she cautiously asked, "Ji Shen, I didn’t do anything to you last night, did I...?"

Ji Ruofeng was stunned; wouldn’t an ordinary girl usually worry about something being done to her?

But thinking of those sorts of things made his cheeks even redder, and his mind lingered briefly on some fantasies. He shook his head and said, "No, we both fell asleep, probably... nothing happened."

Song Shijia breathed a sigh of relief.

"Since it’s a misunderstanding, then I... I’ll leave now, I won’t disturb you any longer."

Saying this, she immediately moved to leave, but her hand was suddenly held back: "Wait a minute..."

"What’s wrong?"

Ji Ruofeng looked at her with some hesitation in his eyes, his ears still burning. After a while, he blushed again and mustered the courage to ask: 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

"Shijia, um... about what I mentioned last night, have you thought about it?"

Song Shijia didn’t immediately understand: "What?"

Ji Ruofeng was startled: "You don’t remember?"

Immediately, a wave of disappointment surged in his heart. It had taken him a lot to say those things after drinking.

And now Shijia actually didn’t remember???

Seeing the expression on his face, Song Shijia vaguely realized something. Last night...

Could the things that happened last night... not be a dream???

Thinking about it made her heart race wildly, and she felt lightheaded and unsure.

Especially now that she was fully awake, her memory began to return, making her feel more and more like... it wasn’t a dream.

She looked at the young man in front of her holding her hand and tentatively said: "Ji Shen, um... during the celebration party last night, did you, like, say something to me?"

"For example... like you like me..."

As she said this, she herself felt a bit embarrassed.

Ji Ruofeng’s eyes lit up: "You remembered?"

Realizing this indirectly acknowledged something, his face involuntarily turned red again, and he looked at her with a particularly shy gaze.

Nevertheless, he didn’t loosen his grip on her hand at all.

Upon getting this answer, Song Shijia felt a bit dizzy: "Wasn’t I dreaming?"

"No," Ji Ruofeng, seeing her uncertainty, got a bit anxious, " you weren’t dreaming, it’s real."

Song Shijia was struck dumb by the unexpected reality and took a moment to recover.

Remembering something, she became slightly more serious and asked: "Then... the thing about retiring last night, that wasn’t a dream either?"

Ji Ruofeng hesitated for a moment but then nodded: "Yeah."

He then saw a slightly dazed expression on the girl’s face before him.

Seeing her reaction, Ji Ruofeng’s gaze darkened as well, like a hole had been hollowed out in his heart, and he felt somewhat downcast.

It turns out, Shijia... only admires him.

Her affection for him is limited to that of fan admiration for an idol?
