Pampering my cute pet

Chapter 4: Shopping

In the evening, Yu Wan edited "Underworld of Wolves" while video chatting with Jian Yunong, her best friend since childhood but living far away overseas.

"Yu Wan, I'm telling you, if you see any big movie stars that I like when filming starts, you gotta get me some autographs." Jian Yunong's voice was muffled through her instant noodles.

Yu Wan rolled her eyes at her. "Hey, I'm there to work, not fangirl. It'll be embarrassing if I ask for an autograph."

"Heh, you're starting to be cheeky, just like me."

"If you want an autograph, just go find my brother. I'm just a little screenwriter, okay?"

Jian Yunong, "Your brother is so busy all the time, he'll never get a chance to do something as small as this."

"Yeah, yeah, screw off."

Jian Yunong finally finished her noodles and let out a loud burp. Yu Wan glanced at her. She felt as if the smell of sauerkraut was seeping through her screen.

*TL-note: Sauerkraut is a very popular flavor of instant noodles in China.

"This is the last bowl of sauerkraut noodles I brought. Yu Wan, remember to mail me another crate of them." Jian Yunong groaned.

Yu Wan, "... Why haven't you died from them yet."

"Oh yeah, weren't you talking about a new neighbor last time? How are they, is it a guy or girl, are they friendly, are they rich? It's super expensive to live in that building of yours." Jian Yunong's turned up her nose, clearly as a show of contempt towards the wealthy.

Yu Wan's fingers paused on her keyboard. Shen Qingzhou's cold expression flitted across her mind. "Mm, it's a guy. He's really hot."

"Really hot?! How hot? Compared to your brother?" Jian Yunong was hyped.

Yu Wan laughed. "He's not the same type as my brother. Though, in my opinion, I like my neighbor's looks more. After all, I've been looking at my brother for twenty years. I've grown sick of it."

"If he heard that, he'll beat you up."

"He wouldn't be able to bring himself to do that."

"Just keep on talking trash about your brother, then." Jian Yunong tsk'ed as she shook her head. "But Yu Wan, it seems like you really like your neighbor. It's rare for such a super homebody* like you to approve of someone. Hey, then what about him? Do you guys get along well? Has he given you like a welcome gift or something?"

*The raw says something more like "super otaku girl", but I refuse to give up my dignity as a translator. The Weiwan-sama business already had me uncomfortable, but it wasn't that bad since the setting was on the Internet.
