“Are you paying for someone’s services, or is someone paying for yours?”

At that point, Nan Chen’s expression began to darken. Regardless of whichever situation it was, he couldn’t accept either.

“Neither, I just said – it was just a slip of tongue!” Ning Ran became anxious.

“But how did you know about such things?” Nan Chen demanded as he glared at Ning Ran.

“People talk about it.”

“Who did you hear it from?” Nan Chen persisted in his questions.

“I need some time to recall as I can’t remember off-hand. It’s just something I overheard when people were talking, so I don’t recall who said what.”

“Then think harder! Who was it that told you, or did you experience it yourself?” Nan Chen wasn’t giving up.

“Ugh, come on! I was only joking. You don’t have to take it THAT seriously. You really have no sense of humor at all.” Ning Ran began to feel frustrated.

By then, she was done drying Nan Chen and had already helped him into his pajamas.

“If you were to pay for my services, how much would you offer?” Nan Chen suddenly asked.

Ning Ran was stunned. What kind of question is that?

“I already said I was just kidding,” Ning Ran repeated helplessly.

“Answer me. How much will you offer?” Nan Chen asked again.

“I’m sorry. I can’t afford you… wait, that didn’t come out right. I meant I wouldn’t offer you anything.” Ning Ran blushed instantly.

Is he flirting with me?

Or is he setting a trap?

“You’re already blushing, and yet you claim that you won’t offer me anything?” Nan Chen fixated his gaze on her.

Ning Ran felt her knees buckling and had the urge to flee.

“Can we stop talking about this? It was just a thought, so don’t take it seriously,” Ning Ran’s tone sounded as she was pleading for mercy.
