Chapter 76

Xia Xi held the phone away, staring at the name displayed on the screen while Luo Chu'an's voice continued to buzz in her ear. Her mood grew increasingly irritable, and she once again regretted answering the call, it was nothing but stirring up trouble for no reason.
"Luo Chu'an, if you have something to say, just say it directly. Stop calling my name over and over. I also hope you won’t call me so late in the future. We’ve already broken up, it’s better to keep our distance." Xia Xi frowned as she listened to Luo Chu'an’s voice on the other end, her tone filled with clear dissatisfaction.
"Host, how can you speak to the target like that?! Have you forgotten that you need to max out his favorability?!" The system, hearing Xia Xi’s impatient tone with Luo Chu'an, felt particularly frustrated. Its voice was full of disbelief and even cracked slightly. "This way, this way you’ll only push him further away!"
Push him further away?
Hearing the system’s words, Xia Xi let out a light, indifferent chuckle. The system’s reaction didn’t affect her decision in the slightest. She narrowed her eyes, completely ignoring what the system had just said, and continued in a stiff tone, "Luo Chu'an, if there’s nothing important, I’m hanging up. I’m busy every day and don’t have time to play these guessing games with you."
"Xia Xi, don’t hang up!" Sensing the impatience in her voice, Luo Chu'an once again realized that, to her, he might not even compare to a stranger. His voice unconsciously carried a hint of urgency. "I have something to tell you, it’ll be quick. Please don’t hang up."
Hearing the faint plea in Luo Chu'an’s tone, Xia Xi pursed her lips, a trace of a smile appearing at the corners of her eyes.
It seemed the effort she had put in recently was finally paying off.
Luo Chu'an had finally noticed Xia Xi’s years of companionship.
He had finally seen the person he had overlooked for so long.
The first step of the plan, though it had taken longer than expected, had been perfectly achieved.
Xia Xi’s previously impatient mood was instantly cured by this good news. Now, even hearing Luo Chu'an’s voice made her feel considerably better.
"Xia Xi." Just as Xia Xi was feeling somewhat pleased, Luo Chu'an’s voice sounded again. This time, Xia Xi felt a bit more willing to listen.
"Can you, can you go easy on Lin Wei?"
