46 Marry Him?
The moment he opened his mouth, he was as sarcastic as usual. Seeing that he had just saved her life, Yu Han decided to be magnanimous and not argue with him. “It’s precisely because Teacher Ji is the greatest contributor that I’m prepared to thank you solemnly at the very end to show my importance.”
Yu Han’s words were sincere enough, but if her eyes had not been rolling around and Ji Jun did not know her personality clearly, he would have believed her. “My life-saving grace is not that easy to accept, so how are you going to thank me?”
This was really unprepared. Yu Han felt guilty for a second. “I should repay you for saving my life, so Teacher Ji, if you lack anything else, just ask. I’ll do my best as long as I can.”
Ji Jun raised his eyebrows. “Do I look like someone who lacks something?”
Yu Han thought for a moment and shook her head. With Ji Jun’s character, looks, family background, and career development, he really did not lack anything.
Yu Han looked troubled. “Then how can I repay you for saving my life?”
She was most afraid of owing others a favor. Especially when the person she owed was Ji Jun. She just wanted to quickly return the favor. Otherwise, she would feel inferior to him every time she saw him in the future. That would be too aggrieved.
Ji Jun sized her up from head to toe and looked at Yu Han until she was frightened. He suddenly said, “The ancients said that you should marry me for saving your life. Why don’t you compensate me yourself?”
Yu Han shrank back in fear. “Teacher Ji, did you hit your head just now? Why did you say such terrifying words?”
Ji Jun’s face darkened. “Why? Didn’t you say that you like me and are my fan? Why do you look so disgusted?”
Why was the matter of being his fan brought up again? Yu Hang was helpless and explained with difficulty, “Of course I don’t despise Teacher Ji. But, I despise myself. With my willow-like appearance, I’m not thanking you for saving my life by sticking to you. I’m clearly humiliating you and lowering your standards.”
Ji Jun knew that Yu Han’s words were fake when he heard them. However, seeing how flustered she was when she explained, he said evilly, “Did I say that I wanted you to be with me? I just remembered that an assistant beside me has just resigned, so I want you to be my maidservant and serve me tea. It’s also a way to repay me for saving my life.”
Yu Han’s face darkened. Did he really think that he was an ancient person who had maidservants? Wasn’t he afraid that she would poison the tea?
Ji Jun was inexplicably happy to see Yu Han’s expression change. “Why? Don’t tell me you think I’ve taken a fancy to you?”
“How could that be?” Yu Han squeezed out a smile. “Teacher Ji, no matter who you like, you won���t like me, right?” She patted her chest. “Thank goodness. Otherwise, I would have thought that Teacher Ji’s brain was damaged from the fall just now.”
This time, Ji Jun couldn’t smile anymore. However, he was the one who said that he didn’t like her. Yu Han was just following his words. What was there to be unhappy about?
“Forget it. Look at how clumsy you are. I was afraid that you would scald me if you served me tea.” Ji Jun frowned and thought for a while. “I even found time in my schedule for this variety show. I don’t want to waste this period of time. If you really want to repay me, think of a way to not let this variety show get canceled.”
Yu Han was shocked. She did not expect Ji Jun to make such a request. To a celebrity like Ji Jun, he was the one leading the variety show, not the variety show leading him.
Therefore, it would not cause any losses to him if the variety show was canceled prematurely. Instead, it would be a good thing. After all, his fees had already been paid to him in advance. It was equivalent to him taking the money without having to work.
Ji Jun actually took the initiative to work? Yu Han only felt that this matter was too coincidental. She was also thinking about this problem just now. As a newcomer who had just entered the industry, if the first variety show stopped filming because of her, it would probably bring her a very bad reputation. Hence, Yu Han definitely did not want this variety show to miscarry halfway. She was thinking of a way to salvage the show.
Seeing Yu Han’s puzzled gaze, an unnatural look flashed across Ji Jun’s face. He explained, “I just don’t like to start without finishing. Since the show has already started recording, I naturally want to finish recording it. Moreover, it’s not my motto to take money and not work.”
Yu Han finally relaxed after hearing his explanation. This was indeed the Ji Jun she remembered. Although he was arrogant, he was very principled.
