1443: Actually, I Am a Man

Actually, I Am a Man

[If Only Time Froze When We First Met: If you want to graduate by next year, it would be best to hand in your thesis by December.2

Shan Shan: Sure! Thanks, Sis.

Shan Shan: Why is there such a big difference between people?

If Only Time Froze When We First Met: What?

Shan Shan: I mean look at Big Sis and my crazy lecturer. His quota for reimbursement is five thousand yuan. He ended up maximizing the quota on his own, and I bought food for him which cost about five hundred yuan which can no longer be reimbursed because it'll exceed the quota.

Shan Shan: I'm so angry.]

Nalan Chunbo read her message then leaned back in his chair, brows furrowed. He glanced at the receipts on his desk and after thinking for a while, he started to type.

[If Only Time Froze When We First Met: Then what do you plan to do?

Shan Shan: I can't reimburse it, so I just have to leave it be then.

Shan Shan: Plus, I'm pretty sure that crazy lecturer might not even pass me the money even if I did get reimbursed.]

The finance department would directly deposit the money into the lecturer's account anyway. After realizing that, Wen Shan's mood improved slightly.

[Shan Shan: Whatever. I think it's best I think of ways to not buy food for him in the future.

If Only Time Froze When We First Met: Yeah.

Shan Shan: Ah, I don't want to think about this anymore. Sis, do you have If's picture?]

 Sis? Every time Nalan Chunbo saw that word, he would frown. Which part of him looked like a sister?

[If Only Time Froze When We First Met: Why do you want his picture? You'll get to see him sooner or later, right?

Shan Shan: Yes, but I am just curious to know what he looks like.

If Only Time Froze When We First Met: What do you think he is like?

Shan Shan: He should be a good person. He treated us to a meal before. Ha ha ha!

If Only Time Froze When We First Met: ...]

 Just a meal and it made her so happy? He could have bought her meals for the rest of her life.

[If Only Time Froze When We First Met: Well, he is quite good-looking.

Shan Shan: So he's a handsome hunk?

If Only Time Froze When We First Met: Just normal.]

 Wen Shan stroked her chin as she read the reply. He probably wasn't a balding uncle, right? Nalan Chunbo definitely knew who the person was. If it wasn't for the tension between them, she would have asked him personally.

Nobody said anything for a while. Wen Shan considered something then started typing.

[Shan Shan: Sister can reply fluently in Chinese, are you from China?

If Only Time Froze When We First Met: Yes.

Shan Shan: Wow, Sister is awesome!]

Nalan Chunbo massaged his temples. This girl couldn't be saved. Every sentence started with Sister, should he just tell her that he was a man?

[If Only Time Froze When We First Met: Actually, I am a man.]

 Wen Shan stared at the screen, stunned.

Wh… What?

Wen Shan looked at the reply and felt like a total idiot. Did the older sister just say that she's a man?

She even sent him the heart emoji! Wen Shan covered her face with her hands. This was so embarrassing. Could she just pretend that nothing had happened?

Nalan Chunbo kept looking at his last message. He knew that if he pretended to be a woman, it would be easier to talk to her but if he didn't tell her now and she eventually found out, she would definitely get mad.

Sometimes, hiding too much of one's identity caused more harm than good.
