Ye Youyou suddenly felt her appetite vanish. Her suppressed frustration was making her uncomfortable.
Ye Qianqian looked away and saw nothing. She now regretted coming along with them. However, judging from Ye Youyou’s reactions toward Li Jinnan, it seemed that the relationship between the both of them wasn’t as simple as it had been made out to be.
After they were done with the meal, Ye Youyou’s stomach was so full that she didn’t feel like getting up at all.
“Eating so much so late in the night isn’t good for your digestion” Li Jinnan off-handedly remarked as he poured her a cup of tea.
Ye Youyou turned to him in exasperation. She stared him down as she said, “If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have eaten so much!”
Li Jinnan looked as if he was taken by surprise. He nodded his head. With a satisfied smirk, he said, “It’s a pleasant surprise to know that looking at me makes you hungry.”
Ye Youyou was at a loss for words. She picked up her teacup and took a sip, unable to cobble a reply together.
“Regardless of how charming I am, you still shouldn’t have eaten so much.” Li Jinnan babbled on as he lit a cigarette.
“What can I do? The food’s already in my tummy!” Ye Youyou was frustrated. How can this man be so shameless? All I did was throw him a bone, and here he is running away with it!
Li Jinnan took a slow puff of his cigarette and said, “You’ll just have to engage in some strenuous exercises to work it off.”
Ye Qianqian began coughing violently and spat out a mouthful of water. At the same time, both Li Jinnan and Ye Youyou looked over. Ye Qianqian’s face reddened. She quickly picked up a napkin to clean the mess as she cleared her throat.
Am I the only one thinking dirty? Strenuous exercises late in the night……
Looking at Ye Qianqian’s blushing face, Ye Youyou’s face began to redden too. She stood up and discourteously said to Li Jinnan, “You can settle the bill. I’m off to the park for a walk.”
Li Jinnan had no objections. He bowed his head in agreement, stood up, and headed out.
After paying the bill, he strolled along the pavement with them. He looked at the surroundings and said, “The environment here isn’t too bad, but the security needs to be upped. It doesn’t seem very safe.”
“There aren’t that many bad people around. This will do,” Ye Youyou uncompromisingly retorted as she quickened her pace.
Ye Qianqian was shocked when she heard the tone Ye Youyou had taken. From the start, every remark Ye Youyou made had been aimed for Li Jinnan’s jugular. If this had been in the past, Ye Youyou would have endured everything. She would have kept it all in until she had reached home before unloading it all on her.
This practice of enduring everything in silence had been a habit she had developed from being by Shen Luo’an side for these few years. Now, the submissive Ye Youyou was nowhere in sight. It was almost as if they had gone back in time before Guan Queye had her accident.
This was the original Ye Youyou who was a little stubborn and short-tempered. It was real, and it was cute. Ye Qianqian took it all in. Her impression of Li Jinnan improved even further.
Standing behind them, Ye Qianqian said, “Youyou, I just remembered that I still have a draft that needs to be looked through. I’ll head back now. I need to go home to work. You can take a walk with GM Li and work off the food.” As she spoke, she turned around and walked off without waiting for Ye Youyou’s reply. She even waved as she left.
Ye Youyou stared after her with her mouth open. Has Ye Qianqian just sold me out? “Older Sister!”
Ye Qianqian turned her head back laughingly and said, “You can come back as late as you want to! Have a good time!”
It was fine even if she didn’t come back. In any case, Ye Qianqian was keeping the door locked. My dear GM Li, it’s all up to you now! She gazed up at the dark and starless sky, feeling a sense of exhilaration in her heart.
