After her identity was stolen, she lived in the short-lived villain's phone.

Chapter 69 Compromise for the Sake of a Smartphone

Originally, according to Chi Yu's plan, since she would be in a ghost state even when she turned into a human and wouldn't be seen by these people, it wouldn't be a problem for her to go through the people in the bar to find Chen Jiazhi.

This sudden system notification completely disrupted Chi Yu's plans.

In her moment of despair, she even forgot that she should be more glad that she was still human and not a ghost.

Looking at the precious 156 minutes of human form time, Chi Yu felt somewhat fortunate. Fortunately, when she mistakenly thought that she could only remain in ghost form in the future, she did not forget to accumulate human form time for herself.

Otherwise, that would be something truly regrettable.

However, thinking of the novice protection she had carelessly wasted in the beginning, Chi Yu couldn't help but sigh sadly.

The greatest pleasure of coming to a bar is the lively and bustling atmosphere.

No one requested a private room.

Shen Yanzhi found a clean booth and sat down.

Jiang Xu and his friends were ordering food and bickering about how much they could drink. Shen Yanzhi wasn't interested in joining in and quietly took out his phone to check out his phone.

The phone screen lights up, and a melancholy little dough figure appears on the screen.

The snow-white, round dough figurine was squatting in the corner with its back to him, holding a small twig and drawing circles on the ground.

Fallen leaves drifted down from its head.

Next to it stands a small sign: [Do Not Disturb, I Want Some Peace and Quiet]
Shen Yanzhi never expected that after a busy day, he would see such a wonderful phone.

The young CEO, who rarely surfs the internet and is completely unaware of internet memes, frowned coldly.

Who is Jingjing?

Who was trying to steal his phone while he was busy?!
Shen Yanzhi raised his hand and poked the dough figure on the screen.

The phone, which has no tactile feedback, remains completely unresponsive.

Shen Yanzhi frowned even more deeply, and his expression darkened further.

Since he couldn't speak, Shen Yanzhi got up and walked out without thinking.

Just as Jiang Siyuan was about to sit next to him, he walked over and before he could say anything, he saw his cousin open his phone, look at it for a few seconds, and then suddenly get up and walk out.

That dark, menacing expression, those tightly pursed lips, that chilling aura... he looked exactly like a miserable husband going to catch his wife cheating.
Jiang Siyuan was shocked by the metaphor that came to mind.

...Impossible, right?
But what else could have made my usually calm and collected cousin so angry? He even showed his emotions.

Jiang Siyuan was greatly shocked.

Just as Jiang Xu and his group finished ordering, they saw Shen Yanzhi get up and walk out. They instinctively wanted to follow him, but Shen Yanzhi stopped them with a gesture.

"Brother, what's wrong with cousin?" Jiang Chi asked Jiang Siyuan.

"I don't know," Jiang Siyuan thought to himself. "You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask?"

Shen Yanzhi walked to the side and found a more suitable place to talk.

He leaned against the second-floor railing, looking down at his phone with a deep gaze: "What's wrong with you?"

Another question lingered in his throat, but he couldn't bring himself to ask it.

Who is Jingjing?!
The more turbulent Shen Yanzhi's heart became, the colder his aura grew, like a snow-capped mountain, frigid and insulated, never to erupt until a certain critical point. And once it did erupt, it would be an irreversible, massive collapse.

Before the phone could reply, the handsome man with a cold expression suddenly began to reflect on himself: "I had too many social engagements today."

Whether it's playing golf in the morning, having lunch with investors, or horse racing at the racecourse in the afternoon, it's not a good time to take out your phone.

People who are obsessed with their phones will only call someone else when they're really bored.

Chi Yu is seriously studying the rules for her to become human. Last time, she wasted a precious opportunity because she didn't read the instructions carefully. This time, Chi Yu is determined to study them thoroughly before taking action.

She was studying it carefully when she heard two completely unrelated sentences from Shen Yanzhi.

"I'm studying."

Chi Yu has ended his immersive research mode.

"Why did you come out?"

Chi Yu suddenly realized that she seemed to be held in Shen Yanzhi's hand, and subconsciously glanced around.

Then, Chi Yu's gaze paused.

Shen Yanzhi's phone is really good quality. The bar was dimly lit and crowded, yet she spotted Chen Jiazhi sitting in the center of the lower section at a glance!

Looking at the doughy little figure that immediately perked up after he finished reflecting on his actions, Shen Yanzhi thought it understood what he meant and immediately said, "Let's stop playing and go home."

Chi Yu: ...Huh?

"No!"

“Let’s play!”

"Wait a little longer!"

Chi Yu typed out three lines of text to stop Shen Yanzhi from wanting to go home.

She was about to figure out all the conditions for her to become human. She had finally found an opportunity to meet Chen Jiazhi, and she couldn't possibly give it up!

Shen Yanzhi slightly raised his hand to hold the phone higher, so that it could have a wider field of view and see more: "You like this?"

“Yes!” Chi Yu replied without hesitation.

Actually, she didn't like bars at all. They were smoky and chaotic places, and the drinks were beyond what a poor student like her could afford.

Chi Yu had never been to a place like this before, when he was a human.

But in order to keep Shen Yanzhi here, she had to say that.

Shen Yanzhi looked at the reply on his phone, then raised his eyes, frowned, and glanced around the bar.

The phone spirit likes places like this? Shen Yanzhi never thought that the phone spirit wanted to stay for someone else; he thought the phone spirit liked such a lively environment.

In an instant, Shen Yanzhi's gaze while looking at his phone resembled that of someone looking at a rebellious, immature child.

However, because of this rebellious smartphone addict's fondness, Shen Yanzhi stayed.

Shen Yanzhi returned to his booth.

The table was already covered with drinks and various fruits.

There were several more young people in the booth than when he left.

“Brother Shen, I just saw that Young Master Qiao and the others were here too, so we decided to share a table,” Sun Chentao said.

"Cousin, come quick! Your seat is reserved for you!" Jiang Xu called out.

Shen Yanzhi nodded casually and greeted Qiao Shao and the others who arrived later.

He sat back in his previous seat.

As soon as he sat down, Jiang Siyuan's gaze swept over Shen Yan from head to toe like a radar.

Jiang Siyuan stared at Shen Yanzhi while revealing a mysterious expression.

Tsk tsk tsk, his cousin's mood improved after just one trip.

Jiang Siyuan was initially hesitant to believe it, but now he suddenly felt that his intuition was right.

Could there be any other reason besides his girlfriend appeasing him?
I never expected that my aloof cousin would quietly find a girlfriend. If his aunt knew, she would be laughing in her sleep every night.

Shen Yanzhi's good mood instantly soured under his naked gaze. Even though he was his own cousin, Shen Yanzhi couldn't help but ask, "What's with that expression?"

Jiang Siyuan didn't mind Shen Yanzhi's sour face at all. He leaned over, nudged Shen Yanzhi with his elbow as if they were brothers, and lowered his voice: "Cousin, how many months pregnant are you?"

"?"

Shen Yanzhi didn't even bother to reply, simply glancing at him.

"You just went out with your phone, weren't you contacting your girlfriend?" Jiang Siyuan had a look on his face that said, "You were angry when you went out, but you were coaxed into submission as soon as you turned around. Just like when your brother and sister-in-law first started dating."

Who else but a romantic relationship can provide this kind of emotional fluctuation?
It couldn't possibly be work!

Jiang Siyuan didn't believe it at all.

"No." Shen Yanzhi never expected Jiang Siyuan to make such an outrageous guess, and denied it outright.

He could never have romantic feelings for a cell phone.

His cousin's idea is really out of touch.

Jiang Siyuan saw that Shen Yanzhi denied it so quickly and with such a calm expression that he didn't seem to be lying at all.

Jiang Siyuan suddenly began to doubt his intuition again.

He knew his cousin's personality well; he wouldn't hide his girlfriend from him after they started dating.

Could it be that he guessed wrong?

"Let's skip this topic and talk about something else," Shen Yanzhi said, his brows furrowing slightly.

He suddenly remembered the cell phone in his pocket.

Their conversation could be overheard by the phone.

The phone spirit has a strong learning ability, and Shen Yanzhi doesn't want Jiang Siyuan to corrupt it.

"Alright, alright." Seeing that his cousin was still as resistant to matters of romance as ever, Jiang Siyuan sighed silently in his heart and changed the subject.

However, Shen Yanzhi was unaware that the phone in his pocket hadn't overheard his conversation with Jiang Siyuan this time.

Because when he put his phone back in his pocket, Chi Yu had already used his human form time and quietly ran off to do his own thing.

When Shen Yanzhi said he was going home, Chi Yu knew that Shen Yanzhi would definitely not stay in this bar for long.

She also figured out some of the rules for her to become human.

It's better to act sooner rather than later, so Chi Yu chose to transform himself into a living person and detach himself from his phone.

[Someone has been detected near the aircraft. It's not suitable to use the "disappearing person" tactic. Would you like to choose another nearby location?]
[yes]
A familiar wave of dizziness made Chi Yu instinctively close her eyes.

The feeling of her feet landing solidly came from the soles of her feet. Chi Yu couldn't wait to open her eyes and looked down to see her familiar body!

She really did turn into a human!
Chi Yu was still wearing the same dress she wore when she went out to sea, and a pair of mid-heel sandals.

She reached up and touched her skirt pocket, only to find it empty; there was nothing there.

Before falling into the sea, her phone was in her pocket. It's unclear whether it didn't travel with her or simply fell into the sea.

Even though she didn't find the phone, Chi Yu wasn't discouraged.

She turned her head and looked around, trying to figure out where she was.

Chi Yu only realized after her immersive study that she had many misunderstandings about her desire to become human and had underestimated the user-friendliness of this phone.

She had always thought that if she wanted to transform into human form, she had to do so when she was away from Shen Yanzhi, or when there were no outsiders around.

Actually not.

She can transform into a human at any time.

If no one is near her phone, she will land right next to it, just like the first time.

If there are people near her phone, like in tonight's situation, she will land in a nearby deserted place with no surveillance cameras.

It's 3:30! Goodnight!
