Ye Youyouâs words were stuck in her throat. She was unable to form a rebuttal. She looked at Ye Qianqian, but she was no match for the emotional blackmail.
When she emerged from the room after changing, the whole sitting room was filled with the smell of cigarette smoke.
Li Jinnan stood tall and straight. He was dressed simply, but his mannerisms were irrefutably imposing.
The found an eatery nearby. Ye Qianqian ordered a few random dishes before leaving the rest up to Li Jinnan.
In truth, he had just finished his dinner not long before and wasnât hungry at all. He relied on his memory to order a few dishes that were possibly her favorite and returned the menu.
Ye Youyou sat at the side very earnestly and asked, âGM Li, is there a reason youâre looking for me so late at night?â
âYeah. My friend is getting married the day after tomorrow. Come with me.â Li Jinnan tapped his fingers on the table. âCome as my plus one.â
âHey, the friend youâre talking about isnât Ou Ming, is it?â Ye Qianqian spoke up. âI was supposed to go to as well. But it seems Lili asked Shen Luoâanâs sister, the one called Manting, to be her bridesmaid. Would it be appropriate for Youyou to be your plus one?â
Li Jinnan wiggled his brows and commented, âIs that so?â
âYeah!â
âIt doesnât matter. Just come. Besides, Iâm just going to join in the fun at Ou Mingâs wedding and add to their numbers.â Li Jinnan took a sip of tea before slowly remarking, âAfter your divorce, weâll get our chance to be the main stars.â
Ye Youyou was caught off-guard by this surprising remark. She cleared her throat gently. With a guilty conscience, she stole a glance at Ye Qianqian. It was obvious from Ye Qianqian eyes that she was eager to hear more of the juicy details.
To cover her embarrassment, Ye Youyou picked up at cup of tea and took her time drinking it before replying, âAlright. When your wedding comes, Iâll be there.â
Ye Youyou couldnât have made her intentions any clearer. She was clearly trying to distance herself from Li Jinnan in Ye Qianqianâs presence.
Li Jinnan acted as if he hadnât understood it. With a nod of his head, he responded, âYeah. I heard that Ou Ming prepared three different wedding gowns for his wife. Iâll prepare four for you. We canât lose out to them.â
Ye Youyou almost choked on her tea. The liquid went down the wrong pipe and came back out vehemently. Perhaps it was from the choking, or perhaps it wasnât, but her face turned bright red.
Li Jinnanâs eyebrows rose slightly. He reached out to pat Ye Youyou on her back. âWhy are you so careless? Are you having trouble drinking?â
Ye Youyouâs coughing grew even more violent. She reached out to swat his hand away and shook her head.
Ye Qianqian deliberately kept her eyes averted and pretended that she couldnât see and hear a thing. She took a sip of tea and savored it before commenting, âThe tea here isnât too bad.â
Li Jinnan was in a good mood and played along with her. âItâs good enough.â
The waiter came by and served up a plate of crispy fried meat fillets and laid the dish on the Lazy Susan. Ye Youyou was glad for this distraction. She immediately picked her chopsticks up and placed a piece into her mouth. As she chewed her food, she no longer had to engage in conversation.
Li Jinnan acted as if he suddenly thought of something and asked, âWhat do you think?â
Ye Youyou continued eating, pretending she hadnât heard him. Her face was practically buried inside her rice bowl.
When Li Jinnan saw how she was behaving, his lips couldnât resist turning up in a smile. He acted as if hadnât noticed anything and remarked earnestly, âIf thatâs not enough, we can add more.â
âGM Li,â Ye Youyou was at the end of her limit. She cut Li Jinnan off and in a tone that sounded hard and firm. âIâm hungry.â
âAlright.â Li Jinnan placed a few pieces of meat on Ye Youyouâs plate and replied, âEat up.â
