The flirtatious girl is done flirting; Mr. He is now obsessed with her.

"Where would you like to go?"

He Yun Shen stood by the car door, a gentle breeze ruffling the stray hairs on his forehead, just enough to obscure the fleeting hint of indulgence in his eyes.

I'm hungry.

He Yun Shen chuckled softly upon hearing this, stepped aside to open the car door, and gestured for him to enter.

"Let's go get something to eat."

After Bai Yishu got into the car, He Yunshen sat next to her, creating a closed space inside the car.

The vehicle drove smoothly through the night. He Yun Shen quietly looked out the window, the neon lights casting flowing shadows on his sharply defined face through the dark windows.

His hand rested casually beside the seat, just centimeters away from Bai Yishu's fingertips. The faint scent of perfume and leather mingled in the car, making Bai Yishu's mind wander.

The car soon stopped in front of a Western restaurant. The waiter immediately opened the car door, and He Yun Shen got out first, standing aside to help Bai Yi Shu down.

"The chef here is quite skilled, shall we give it a try?"

The head waiter led the two to a seat by the window and handed them two menus.

Bai Yishu flipped through the menu, her gaze unconsciously drifting towards He Yunshen, who was drinking water at the moment.

Her gaze moved from his deep-set eyes to his lips that lightly touched the rim of the glass, and finally slid down to his neck, her eyes lingering on his Adam's apple as he swallowed.

"Miss Bai."

He Yun Shen put down his water glass, just in time to catch Bai Yi Shu's gaze, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly. Instead of exposing her, he met her gaze with great interest.

"Have you seen enough?"

Bai Yishu immediately looked away, a hint of embarrassment on her face, and continued to pretend to look at the menu.

After the waiter took the order and left, He Yun Shen's gaze returned to Bai Yi Shu's face.

"Miss Bai, it's been a year. Is the 100th thing you've done to pursue me just to take me out for ice cream and dinner?"

Bai Yishu was slightly taken aback. She hadn't expected He Yunshen to remember so many things she had done, which surprised her.

"I was out shopping today, I didn't expect to run into you."

He Yun Shen leaned back in his chair, looking languid.

"So, running into me was an accident, and then having me eat ice cream and have dinner with you was also an accident?"

"Otherwise what? But how come Mr. He just happened to appear near me? Could he be following me?"

Bai Yishu took out a slice of bread, spread butter on it, put it in her mouth, and observed He Yunshen's expression with amusement.

Instead of being angry, He Yun Shen laughed, a hint of cunning in his expression.

"Miss Bai, you really know how to turn the tables and stalk you? I, He Yun Shen, would never do such a thing."

"But...the world is sometimes just that small, isn't it?"

Bai Yishu remained noncommittal, shrugging her shoulders and glancing occasionally at the night view outside the window.

"So, none of this was part of my plan."

He Yun Shen found her persistence amusing, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

"Okay, that wasn't your plan. But what if I said..."

He Yun Shen leaned forward slightly, closing the distance between himself and Bai Yi Shu. His gaze lingered on her lips for a moment before slowly moving upwards.

"I'm here today because I kind of wanted to see you, aren't I?"

Bai Yishu paused for a moment as she looked out the window, her heart suddenly pounding wildly.

The waiter then began serving the dishes, placing a beautifully plated steak in front of Bai Yishu.

He Yun Shen withdrew his gaze, picked up his knife and fork, and began to smoothly cut the steak.

"Try it and see if it tastes as good as I described."

Bai Yishu picked up the knife and fork on the table, her heart churning with turmoil from He Yunshen's words, and her chewing became somewhat absent-minded.

She couldn't help but ask.

"What did you mean by that?"

He Yun Shen slowly put down his knife and fork, picked up a napkin and elegantly wiped the corners of his mouth. He lowered his voice, and every word was filled with an ambiguous atmosphere.

"What I mean is, perhaps I'm not as indifferent as I appear."

He tapped his fingers lightly on the table, his eyes fixed on Bai Yishu.

"Miss Bai has been pursuing me for a year. Have you ever wondered why I've never completely ruled out anything?"

Bai Yishu tightened her grip on the knife and fork, looking at the other person nervously.

Why?

"because……"

He Yun Shen deliberately kept everyone in suspense. He picked up the red wine bottle next to him, slowly poured a little into his wine glass, put the bottle back, and then gently swirled his own glass.

"I'm waiting for Miss Bai to do her 100th thing."

"The 100th thing..."

Bai Yishu muttered to herself, her expression complex.

"That's right, the first 99 items weren't enough to convince me, but the 100th might be different."

Bai Yishu raised her head, a hint of anticipation rising in her heart because of his words.

"You mean, if I do the 100th thing, you'll consider being with me?"

"Perhaps."

He Yun Shen took a sip of red wine, watching the liquid swaying in the glass, a half-smile playing on his lips.

"However, this 100th thing must be special enough, enough to move me."

Bai Yishu's mind flashed back to the 100th entry she had written in her notebook, when she suddenly felt a prickling sensation on her back, making her feel uneasy.

"What if... this 100th thing still doesn't satisfy you?"

Bai Yishu gripped the knife and fork even tighter, her voice trembling slightly with nervousness.

He Yun Shen's eyes deepened, his fingertips gently stroking the rim of the cup. After a moment of silence, he slowly spoke.

"Then Miss Bai has no chance."

Although his tone was calm, it conveyed an undeniable resolve. The flickering candlelight cast shadows on his face, making his expression even more enigmatic.

"This 100th thing is your last chance."

"So, Miss Bai, you'd better seize this opportunity."

really……

Although Bai Yishu already had the answer in her heart, her heart still couldn't help but clench when she heard him say it aloud.

But this answer also gave her the courage to take a desperate gamble.

That was originally her plan.

If she fails on the 100th attempt, she will give up on He Yun Shen and let go of her obsession with him.

His answer has given her the idea to take a gamble.

Regardless of success or failure, this will be the last thing Bai Yishu does.

If we succeed, everyone will be happy; if we fail, we can simply avoid him from now on and never see him again.

After a week of intense internal struggle, Bai Yishu decided to proceed according to the original plan.

One Friday afternoon, Bai Yishu called He Yunshen.

"Miss Bai."

He Yun Shen's deep, languid voice came from the other end of the phone, seemingly unsurprised by Bai Yi Shu's call.

Bai Yishu cleared her throat, trying to suppress the pounding in her heart, but the thought of what she was about to do made her heart beat even more uncontrollably.

"Mr. He, do you have time tonight?"

"What does Miss Bai want to see me about tonight?"

He Yunshen's tone was nonchalant, yet it concealed a hint of expectation.

"The 100th thing."
