A Billion Stars Can't Amount to You

It was already late at night. Aside from her close friends on WeChat, there was no one else online on her Moments, so ten minutes after posting that photo, no one liked or replied to it.

Ji Yi didn’t think much of it. After Tang Huahua ate and drank, Ji Yi immediately continued their game.

After the match ended, an unknown number popped up on Ji Yi’s phone, pulling her back to the home screen.

It’s the middle of the night. Who could be calling?

Ji Yi hesitated for a few seconds before picking up.

“Hello, I’m here to deliver your takeout. I’m outside your home, could you please open the door?”

Takeout? I didn’t order anything... Ji Yi was stunned and figured they must’ve gotten the wrong number. Just as she was about to hang up, the doorbell rang.

Ji Yi maneuvered her wheelchair out of the bedroom.

She took a glance at the security monitor on the wall of the entrance to see that there really was a young man standing there to deliver food.

Since it was inconvenient for Ji Yi to move around, the delivery guy kindly placed the food on the living room coffee table before he left.

Ji Yi opened the bag and casually took a glance inside to see that it was all crayfish. She instinctively pulled out her phone and sent Tang Huahua a message: “Huahua, did you order takeout for me?”

Tang Huahua instantly replied: “You wish!”

Ji Yi took a photo: “I’m being serious. I’m not joking with you.”

Tang Huahua: “It really wasn’t me.”

If it wasn’t Tang Huahua, who was it?

Ji Yi stared at WeChat with her brows furrowed. Then she saw that there was a notification on her Moments.

She hurriedly clicked it and saw that there was a “like” on the picture she posted half an hour ago on Moments. It was from He Jichen.

Don’t tell me. He Jichen saw my post on Moments and ordered the crayfish?

Ji Yi thought about it for a moment then opened up her chat with He Jichen. “The err... crayfish. Did you order it?”

He Jichen was still awake. He was probably on his phone because he quickly replied: “Mhm.”

It really was He Jichen who ordered the crayfish... Ji Yi’s heart warmed and after a short while, she typed again: “Ah, thank you!”

He Jichen replied quickly again. However, his message was unrelated to hers: “How’s your leg?”

“A lot better.” After Ji Yi pressed send, she tapped on the keyboard for a while: “I went to the hospital this afternoon for a check-up. The doctor said the sprain has already started to heal.”

“Mhm.” He Jichen sent another message. Just as his first message, it was just a single word.

He probably realized he was being overly boring, so he sent another message three seconds later with two more words: “Then that’s good.”

At the moment, Ji Yi didn’t quite know how to reply to He Jichen. She figured she might as well change the subject: “Why’re you still up so late?”

“Just got home.”

“Did overtime?”

“No, I had a dinner which just ended.” He Jichen sent two consecutive messages. “Eat the crayfish while it’s still hot.”

“Mhm, mhm,” replied Ji Yi then she put on the gloves. As she ate the crayfish, she took off the gloves every now and then to reply to He Jichen.

The two of them chatted about tedious things, but they managed to keep the conversation going till two in the morning before they both said “Goodnight.”
