Why didn't you tell me earlier that my little sister is still waiting for me?

"Dabao!" Lin Bufan waved to the assistant who had stepped aside after handing him the phone. A round-faced girl holding a cup of milk tea said, "Come here!"

Duan Jiabao immediately trotted over, his chubby cheeks trembling with every step. His badge read "Intern Assistant Duan Jiabao." "Prince, do you want big plate chicken or Australian lobster today? I just found out there's a place across from the crew..."

"Stop, stop, stop! Why do you think about eating all day long?" After scolding Duan Jiabao with a serious face, Lin Bufan immediately put on a smile: "Dabao, I have an important task for you, which is a good opportunity to use your expertise!"

Seeing Lin Bufan's malicious smile, Duan Jiabao subconsciously took a step back before cautiously saying, "Specialty? What specialty? Specialty? Rich?"

Lin Bufan shook his head and smiled mysteriously, "Dabao, you're a well-known glutton in our crew. No, you're a food connoisseur. Don't you know which store has the best desserts and the best cakes?"

Duan Jiabao muttered softly, "Even if there's a glutton in our crew, it's you. Compared to you, I feel like I've been really badly treating my stomach over the years!"

Seeing Duan Jiabao mumbling there, Lin Bufan patted him on the head in annoyance: "I'm talking to you, do you hear me?"

"Ouch!" Duan Jiabao covered his forehead and nodded aggrievedly, "I heard it, I heard it. Mr. Lin, please tell me."

"Call me Prince, Prince. I've stressed it so many times, why can't you remember?"

Duan Jiabao: ...

"Forget it, forget it. I'll just be more careful next time!" Lin Bufan took out his phone and sent the address of Xinyuan Property to Duan Jiabao. "Order me a top-notch birthday cake and have it delivered to this address before 8 a.m. tomorrow. Remember, it has to be from the best cake shop in Shanghai, with the finest ingredients and the most exquisite design."

Duan Jiabao's eyes lit up, and he immediately took out his notebook and wrote it down: "I'm an expert on this! I know there's a French dessert shop near Jing'an Temple. Their mousse cake has even been praised by Michelin chefs..."

"Stop, stop, stop!" Lin Bufan interrupted Duan Jiabao: "I don't care whether it's Michelin or Michelin Grass, it must be delivered on time before 8 o'clock tomorrow. And the cake must say Happy Birthday, Xiaoqin."

After Duan Jiabao finished writing down the last stroke, he suddenly thought of something: "Boss Lin, should we add a little heart or something? I've seen TV dramas that way..."

Lin Bufan glared at Duan Jiabao again: "Do you think this is a proposal? We're just ordinary friends!"

After a pause, Lin Bufan changed the subject and said, "But... you can prepare a bouquet of flowers, and make them into a heart shape. Even though we're just ordinary friends, we still need to have the romantic ceremony."

Duan Jiabao was dissatisfied in his heart: Since you accepted his advice, why do you hit him?

Just as Duan Jiabao was about to leave, he suddenly retreated: "But... Mr. Qu asked me to follow you everywhere, saying that I need to record your progress..."

"Pa!" Lin Bufan patted Duan Jiabao on the head again: "Are you stupid? Can't you tell the difference between the big boss and the small boss in the company? I'm the boss, my orders take precedence over Qu Xiaoxiao's, do you understand?"

Duan Jiabao covered his head, his eyes suddenly lighting up: "That's right! You're the boss!" Duan Jiabao immediately turned around and ran out of the crew: "I'll go order a cake and a bouquet right now! I guarantee the prince will be satisfied!"

Lin Bufan looked at Duan Jiabao's back as he happily left and shook his head helplessly.

Although he didn't recognize who this was, Lin Bufan was sure that this was definitely a character from a film or TV series.

Otherwise, in real life, which young lady would be willing to be someone else's assistant?

However, maybe there are people who really have a serious mental illness!

Therefore, Lin Bufan has other evidence, that is, the name Duan Jiabao appears in the system's favorability!

Now it is certain!

Although Duan Jiabao is a character in film and television, Lin Bufan has no other thoughts about him. After all, our Master Lin is not a sex-hungry wolf, and he will definitely not fall in love with everyone he meets!

As for why Qu Xiaoxiao let Duan Jiabao be Lin Bufan's assistant, Lin Bufan felt that it was probably because Qu Xiaoxiao trusted his character, so she chose him for him!

After Duan Jiabao left, Lin Bufan immersed himself in the filming of the thrilling emotional scenes again, but this time it was him and Chen Meijia!

There was no other way. After listening to Mei Jia's advice, Zhang Na also felt that Zhang Wei's blackening was a bit far-fetched. If some emotional entanglements were added, the blackening would be more logical. Therefore, Lin Bufan could only make some more sacrifices!

The next morning, as soon as Lin Bufan arrived at the door of Xinyuan Property, he saw Duan Jiabao greeting a delivery man!

"Here, here, be careful not to break it!" Duan Jiabao gave orders while yawning.

Seeing Lin Bufan coming, she immediately trotted over to take credit: "Prince, look at this cake and bouquet, I ran all over the city to order them!"

Lin Bufan looked at the simple and elegant bouquet of pink roses and white baby's breath and nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, the bouquet is very elegant, not too exaggerated."

Duan Jiabao raised his chin proudly: "Of course! I specially chose my favorite pink rose at home. The flower language is gentle love, and paired with baby's breath, it represents true love..."

"Pa!" Lin Bufan patted Duan Jiabao on the head again: "Who told you to send these flowers? Didn't I tell you? We are just ordinary friends, ordinary friends. You don't understand, right?"

Duan Jiabao rubbed his head a little aggrievedly!

Lin Bufan frowned and asked Duan Jiabao: "Can this flower be exchanged?"

Duan Jiabao nodded quickly: "Yes, I can change it! I'll contact the florist to send a new bouquet!"

Lin Bufan sighed and waved his hand, saying, "If you can't change it, forget it. Be more careful next time."

"No, I just said it can be changed..."

"Alright, alright," Lin Bufan interrupted Duan Jiabao, "I understand. Since you can't change it, then you should be more careful next time. This time, let's leave it at that."

Watching Lin Bufan, who was already carrying a cake and a bouquet of flowers and walking towards the property management company, Duan Jiabao was a little confused. Did he not explain clearly? Or was he hallucinating because he woke up too early?

As they were about to enter the property management company, Lin Bufan turned to Duan Jiabao and said, "Okay, I'll give you a day off today. Go back and catch up on your sleep."

Duan Jiabao's eyes lit up, and he was about to cheer, but Lin Bufan spoke first: "No need to thank me, let's go."

Looking at Lin Bufan who disappeared from his sight, Duan Jiabao curled his lips in dissatisfaction: Who should thank you? You are so self-indulgent!

However, you have some conscience this time, it was worth it for me to get up so early!

As soon as Lin Bufan walked into the property management company with a cake and a bouquet of flowers, he met Mr. Xu.

"Xiao Lin? What are you doing..." Mr. Xu looked at the huge cake box that Lin Bufan was carrying, and was speechless. Isn't this too exaggerated?

Lin Bufan naturally knew what Mr. Xu was talking about: "The assistant is ignorant and did it blindly. Please forgive me, Mr. Xu."

Mr. Xu smiled and did not continue the topic. Instead, he said, "Xiaoqin will be here soon. Let's hide the cake first. This way we can give her a surprise!"

Lin Bufan nodded and agreed with Mr. Xu's suggestion. When hiding the cake, Lin Bufan saw that there was no one around, so he took out a gold necklace from the system space and stuffed it into Mr. Xu's hand!

In this regard, Mr. Xu tacitly did not say much!

Not long after, Zhong Xiaoqin arrived, humming a little tune. She was wearing a light blue dress and had a fashionable hairstyle. I wonder if she had asked Hu Delu from Shigejie Commune to do it for her?

"Good morning, everyone!" Zhong Xiaoqin greeted her colleagues with a smile. It can be seen that she was in a good mood!

As she walked to her workstation, Zhong Xiaoqin suddenly cried out "Ah" - the bouquet of pink roses prepared by Lin Bufan was lying quietly on her keyboard.

"This is..." Zhong Xiaoqin looked around, trying to confirm who sent it.

Just then, Lin Bufan came out of the lounge pushing a small cart with a huge five-layered cake on it!

There was no other way. The cake was too big and it would be difficult to carry it without a box, so Lin Bufan specially found a small cart.

"Sister Xiaoqin, happy birthday!" Lin Bufan shouted with a smile.

Other colleagues also gathered around, clapping and singing the birthday song: "Happy birthday to you~Happy birthday to you~"

Zhong Xiaoqin covered her mouth in surprise, her eyes sparkling. Amid the crowd's cheers, she clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, made a wish, and then blew out the candles with a whoosh.

After making the wish, Zhong Xiaoqin began to distribute the cake to everyone. Because the cake was so big, everyone got a big piece: "This cake is too much, I can't finish it all by myself. Everyone, take some back and share with your family."

Colleagues thanked him one after another and left with their cakes. After everyone left, Zhong Xiaoqin sat down at her workstation and said to Lin Bufan, who was working at the next desk, "Aren't you filming on set? Why did you suddenly come back today?"

Lin Bufan smiled and said, "I came back specially to celebrate your birthday. How is it? Are you touched?"

Zhong Xiaoqin rolled her eyes at Lin Bufan, then pointed at the bouquet of roses on the table: "Did you give these flowers?"

"I asked my assistant to buy it for me." Lin Bufan scratched his head and pretended to be embarrassed. "The girl might have misunderstood and thought it was a gift for her girlfriend, so she bought roses. By the time I found out, it was too late to change it."

After a pause, Lin Bufan continued, "If you like it, keep it. If you don't like it, I'll help you throw it away. Don't feel embarrassed."

As he said that, Lin Bufan pretended to throw it away!

Zhong Xiaoqin quickly reached out to stop Lin Bufan: "Don't throw it away! It's a shame to throw away such beautiful flowers. But this won't happen again. Don't give me flowers like this in the future."

Lin Bufan smiled and said nothing!

After having lunch with Zhong Xiaoqin and other colleagues at noon, Lin Bufan left and did not stay until after get off work in the evening. It was not that Lin Bufan was anxious about something or worried about the crew.

It was because Lin Bufan remembered that Zhong Xiaoqin and Chen Yu’s marriage had a change on Zhong Xiaoqin’s birthday and ended in divorce!

Lin Bufan didn't want his appearance to change the future, so it would be better for him to slip away early!

Without Lin Bufan's participation, things continued smoothly along their original trajectory.

Zhong Xiaoqin and Chen Yu originally wanted to take advantage of their birthday today to have a romantic moment and take the opportunity to repair their relationship, but due to various coincidences, or because of their own reasons, not only did their relationship fail to be repaired, but they ended up having to make an appointment to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to divorce tomorrow, and it was a "bet" that whoever didn't go would be the grandson!

Facts have proved that the two of them have good "gambling qualities" and neither of them is a grandson. The next day, they both came to the Civil Affairs Bureau as promised and went through the divorce procedures happily!

It was already the third day when Lin Bufan learned the news, and the one who informed him was Zhu Suosuo!

As for the source of Zhu Suosuo's information, Lin Bufan originally thought it was the Corgi adopted by Zhong Xiaoqin, but Zhu Suosuo told him that this was what Zhong Xiaoqin said herself during the chat!

Led by the front desk service dog, Lin Bufan quickly found Zhong Xiaoqin who was sitting on the sofa in the corner chatting with Zhu Suosuo.

The sunlight shines through the floor-to-ceiling windows onto Zhong Xiaoqin, making her whole body glow.

"Hey, isn't this our Sister Xiaoqin?" Lin Bufan whistled, strode over, and deliberately looked Zhong Xiaoqin up and down: "I haven't seen you for a few days, why do you seem to be glowing?"

Zhong Xiaoqin wore a pale pink, fitted dress that made her skin look like snow. She also had her hair done up and wore a pair of small pearl earrings on her earlobes. Hearing Lin Bufan's voice, she turned around with a faint smile on her face. "Why, don't I usually shine?"

Lin Bufan sat down opposite Zhong Xiaoqin, resting his elbows on his knees and moving closer. "Tell me the truth, are you really getting a divorce or are you just faking it? Why do I feel like your mental state is better than when you were married? Are you lying to me?"

You know, other people cry and wail when they get divorced, but you look so radiant, someone who doesn't know you would think you won the lottery."

Zhong Xiaoqin took a sip of the juice in front of her, her eyes curved into crescents. "Why, does it have to be me crying my heart out for it to be normal?"

"That's not the case," Lin Bufan leaned back and crossed his legs. "I just think your status has changed too quickly. When we met two days ago, you were still a married young woman, and today you've become a single goddess?"

Zhong Xiaoqin was amused by Lin Bufan and reached out to hit him lightly: "Don't try to be so rude. Actually... the divorce has made me think a lot of things through."

She lowered her head and spun the cup in her hand, the sunlight casting tiny shadows on her eyelashes: "I made a wish on my birthday night, that every day in the future would be better than that day, so of course I have to work hard to make my wish come true!

Besides, I think being single is really relaxing!"

Lin Bufan slapped his thigh and gave Zhong Xiaoqin a thumbs up: "Sister Xiaoqin, your awareness is absolutely right!

Being single is so wonderful. You can go home whenever you want without checking in with anyone. You can eat whatever you want without having to consider someone else's taste. You can spend your salary however you want without having to budget. You can sleep in as late as you want on weekends without having to get up early to make breakfast. You can binge-watch TV shows all night long without anyone fighting over the remote. Your closet is full of your own clothes, so you never have to make room for your partner's stuff. In short, the benefits are endless!

After hearing Lin Bufan's declaration of being single, Zhong Xiaoqin couldn't help but chuckle: "You make such a good point, then why do you still have so many girlfriends?"

"Well... well... the main thing is..." Lin Bufan suddenly had an idea and quickly changed the subject: "By the way, Sister Xiaoqin, didn't you say you wanted to talk to me about something? What is it?"
