"I'd never seen you wear any of these before. What made you decide to use this now?"
Yan Jinyue asked Ji Hanxing.
Ji Hanxing gazed at Yan Jinyue with earnest sincerity. "I need to marinate myself in these perfumes until the scent soaks in."
He tossed the problem he couldn't solve to Yan Jinyue. Ji Hanxing believed that, as a domineering CEO, Yan Jinyue surely knew how to handle this.
Yan Jinyue rubbed his faintly aching temple. Why were Ji Hanxing's tasks all so bizarre?
He found them completely illogical and useless.
What kind of weirdo had come up with them?
Inside the system space, the system's internal current suddenly jolted.
The system thought, Had I gone too long without maintenance and developed a fault?
Ji Hanxing blinked, anticipation spreading across his face. "Do you know what to do?"
His eyes shone as he waited for Yan Jinyue to give him a satisfying answer.
"Cologne diffuses well, but the scent doesn't last very long," Yan Jinyue explained to Ji Hanxing. "How long do you need it to last?"
"A long time."
Yan Jinyue lowered his eyes to Ji Hanxing. "How long is a long time?"
"I don't know." Ji Hanxing looked innocent.
The system had said he would meet the female lead, but he had no idea when that would happen. Even according to the original plot's timeline, it would take over a year.
Yan Jinyue stared at Ji Hanxing for a while. Ji Hanxing rubbed his nose. "I really don't know."
"All right." Yan Jinyue nodded. "I'll figure something out."
Ji Hanxing nodded. "Mm-hmm."
His gaze fell on the shopping bag in Yan Jinyue's hand again.
[If you ask me, if nothing else works, I could just bathe in perfume. That would definitely marinate me all the way through.]
