Chapter 531 I Admit it That I Like Him
In the western restaurant.
The restaurant manager and Shen Yuechuan were old acquaintances. Seeing Shen Yuechuan come with a girl, the manager was not surprised at all.
What amazed the manager was that the girl brought along by Shen Yuechuan was completely different in attire and style.
The girls who used to accompany Shen Yuechuan were all little peris with exquisite makeup and absolutely fashionable appearance. But this time, it was a girl without makeup, who wore a simple T-shirt, jeans, and white sneakers...
“Pfft, isn’t she one of those who Shen Yuechuan used to be the most disdainful of?”
However, what could not be denied was that, this girl looked very comfortable. She had plain facial features, simple clothes, and a special youthful aura which made her look clean and bright.
Such a girl, like the morning sun and the morning dew, was so beautiful that people couldn’t bear to hurt her.
The manager gave Shen Yuechuan an ambiguous look without leaving a trace. Just as he was about to tease Shen Yuechuan, the latter put his arm on the manager’s shoulder and said in a joking tone, “I haven’t been here for only one or two months. You have modified it here. Let me see how it is changed.”
While speaking, Shen Yuechuan took the opportunity to drag the manager to the corner.
The manager was so dizzy by the arm clutch of Shen Yuechuan that he looked around and then looked at Shen Yuechuan in confusion. “Brother Chuan, what’s wrong?”
“F*ck!” Their restaurant was the same as a few months ago. It had never been modified at all. Shen Yuechuan had obviously dragged him here on purpose.
Shen Yuechuan lowered his voice and warned the manager, “I’m serious this time. Be careful when you talk. If you ruin my image in Yunyun’s mind, I’ll make you suffer!”
The manager looked at Shen Yuechuan with a blank face. “... What are you serious about?” After a pause, he glanced at Xiao Yunyun who was not far behind him and couldn’t help laughing out loud. “You said you were serious about that girl, hahaha...”
Shen Yuechuan narrowed his eyes and stared at the restaurant manager with heavy eyes. He asked, emphasizing each syllable, “Is it so funny?”
The manager felt a burst of murderous intent. He looked up at Shen Yuechuan and saw an unprecedentedly deep and serious look in his eyes.
“F*ck!” The manager couldn’t help marveling. “This time, you’re really serious?!”
“...” Shen Yuechuan was puzzled. Although he used to treat life as a game and now he was going to chase someone seriously, was it so unbelievable?
The manager was still in a state of shock. He nodded and said, “Brother Chuan, I know what I should do!”
Shen Yuechuan patted the manager’s shoulder and said, “Go ahead with your business.”
After that, he turned back and sat down beside a window with Xiao Yunyun.
The steak was soon served, and its appearance was impeccable. The smell was so tempting that it made people’s mouth twitch.
Xiao Yunyun gnashed her teeth and quickly picked up the knife and fork. “It seems that the restaurant really lives up to its reputation!”
Although she could not wait to eat, she looked very elegant and decent when she started to eat. The steak was cut into small pieces, and she put them into her mouth with a well-made fork. She chewed and swallowed leisurely. Even the small action of swallowing was particularly charming.
Only at the moment did Shen Yuechuan feel that Xiao Yunyun was indeed a girl who had been brought up in a rich family.
Xiao Yunyun was very sensitive to Shen Yuechuan’s gaze. When she noticed that Shen Yuechuan was staring at her, she subconsciously raised her head and her eyes met with Shen Yuechuan’s by accident. Shen Yuechuan smiled at her.
“...”
For a moment, Xiao Yunyun’s mind went blank.
In this case, she should have looked away as if nothing had happened, but Shen Yuechuan smiled at her. If she still avoided it, wasn’t she trying to cover something up?
Xiao Yunyun had to say, “Why are you looking at me? It’s better to look at the steak in front of you.”
Shen Yuechuan raised the corner of his mouth and said, “You are more beautiful than the steak.”
“...”
She was better-looking than a steak that had been fried with pickled sauce and oil in Shen Yuechuan’s eyes. Xiao Yunyun didn’t know whether she should be happy or sad.
However, since Shen Yuechuan rarely praised her, she reluctantly chose to be happy.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yunyun gave Shen Yuechuan a satisfied look and said, “Mr. Shen, your aesthetic conception is finally online.”
Shen Yuechuan raised his eyebrows, put on a serious face and advised, “Dr. Xiao, as a woman in the prime of her life, what’s the point of your life if you can’t even beat a steak?”
Xiao Yunyun was speechless for a moment. “... You mean, I shouldn’t think that you are praising me?”
Shen Yuechuan nodded. “Exactly.”
Xiao Yunyun was so angry that she didn’t know how to refute it. She stabbed Shen Yuechuan’s steak with the knife and said, “I don’t want to quarrel with you here. If you have the ability, let’s go out and fight!”
Shen Yuechuan thought for a second. Then he shook his head and said, “It’s not serious enough to be solved with violence, is it?”
He couldn’t call himself smirking, but his tone was very relaxed, as if it was really Xiao Yunyun, who was making a big fuss.
Xiao Yunyun was speechless and did not know how to react at all. She suddenly withdrew her hand and glanced at a familiar figure out of the corner of her eye. She was stunned and took a closer look, only to find that Su Yunjin was already in a taxi.
Oh no, crap!
Shen Yuechuan soon noticed that there was something wrong with Xiao Yunyun’s expression and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Xiao Yunyun shook her head. “Nothing.”
It would be strange if there was nothing wrong!
She had tried her best to deny that she liked Shen Yuechuan yesterday afternoon, and she was arranged to have a date with Qin Han today. However, Su Yunjin saw her eating with Shen Yuechuan with her own eyes...
It was a misunderstanding, and it was a huge one!
Shen Yuechuan did not miss the panic at the bottom of Xiao Yunyun’s eyes. “Really?”
“It is my business if there is anything wrong.” Now that it had developed like this, Xiao Yunyun could only comfort herself to take one step at a time. She put a small piece of steak into her mouth, chewed and swallowed it slowly, and said to Shen Yuechuan, “Just eat. Don’t you need to go back to work?”
Shen Yuechuan looked at Xiao Yunyun suspiciously, and finally said nothing. He placed the knife on the steak, cut off a small piece and ate it.
If there was something wrong with Xiao Yunyun, he had plenty of ways to know it if he wanted to know.
Therefore, he would let her keep this secret for the time being if she didn’t want to tell him.
However, there was another thing that he had to ask Xiao Yunyun, “Your mother, why did she suddenly arrange a date with you and Qin Han? Is Auntie Su very familiar with the Qin family?”
Xiao Yunyun was so guilty that she didn’t dare to look at Shen Yuechuan. She didn’t dare to say that, it was because she denied the fact that she liked Shen Yuechuan, Su Yunjin suddenly arranged her to have a date with Qin Han.
After thinking about it, Xiao Yunyun avoided the important part and answered lightly, “My mother said that she and Qin Han’s mother had been old friends for many years. They know each other well, and hope that Qin Han and I can be more familiar with each other.”
Shen Yuechuan smiled ambiguously. “I see.”
It seemed that he misunderstood it.
From Su Yunjin’s attitude toward him, he thought that Su Yunjin had a good impression of him.
But in the end, he couldn’t get through Su Yunjin.
Shen Yuechuan recalled that Su Yunjin had asked someone to look into his information. If Shen Yuechuan guessed correctly, Su Yunjin must have found out that he was an orphan.
“That’s right. Who could be assured to let their daughter be with an orphan with unknown origin?”
Xiao Yunyun always felt that Shen Yuechuan’s tone and expression were strange. She asked with uncertainty, “What do you know?”
Right at this moment, the waiter served a bottle of white wine. Shen Yuechuan poured Xiao Yunyun a small half cup and said, “Nothing, let’s eat.”
After dinner, Shen Yuechuan asked if he should send Xiao Yunyun back.
Xiao Yunyun thought for a moment and replied, “I may have to go to my mother’s place. You can go back to the company. I’ll take a taxi.”
It was daytime, so Shen Yuechuan had nothing to worry about. He nodded, stopped a taxi, signal Xiao Yunyun to get in, and watched the car drive away. Then he turned around to pick up his car, and went back to the company.
In the taxi that was galloping forward, Xiao Yunyun held her mobile phone and waited for a while. As expected, the phone rang.
“I’m at XX Café on the Ganges Road,” Su Yunjin said. “It’s not far from the western restaurant where you and Yuechuan had lunch.”
Xiao Yunyun looked up and saw the cafe that Su Yunjin had mentioned. She paid the fare and got out of the taxi. As soon as she entered the cafe, she saw Su Yunjin sitting in a seat near the window, with a cup of coffee in front of her. It was steaming hot.
She sat down and said, “Mom.”
“Fortunately, I saw it.” Su Yunjin looked at Xiao Yunyun unhappily. “If Qin Han’s mother sees it, how can I explain it to her and how should I contact the Qin Family in the future?!”
Xiao Yunyun really didn’t think of these. She lowered her head and apologized in a really low voice, “Mom, I’m sorry.”
“Well, it’s useless to apologize to me.” Su Yunjin looked at Xiao Yunyun and said, “Yunyun, be honest with me and tell me if you and Yuechuan have already been together? How far have you gone?”
Xiao Yunyun raised her head and blinked twice. Disappointment filled her eyes and she said, “Shen Yuechuan and I are not together, and we haven’t developed...”
Su Yunjin was experienced and definitely knew how disappointed and frustrated Xiao Yunyun was at the moment. She asked, “Do you still deny that you like Yuechuan?”
“...”
“...”
After a long silence, Xiao Yunyun said slowly, “I used to know nothing about favor. I studied medicine. Humans have no gender difference in my eyes. Some things which were disgraceful for other girls, as long as those are involved with medical knowledge, I can chat with the male students as usual. I don’t think there is anything unnatural or shy, because in my eyes, men and women are all the same.”
Su Yunjin didn’t quite understand. “Why are you telling me this? At first, I didn’t approve of you learning medicine.”
Xiao Yunyun continued to say, “But Shen Yuechuan is different. In my eyes, he is a man who is extraordinary, good-looking and attractive.”
“...”
“He can make me feel embarrassed, make me blush, and let me know what it means to be excited.” After a pause, Xiao Yunyun went on to say, “Mom, for me, he is a person who is different from everyone else in the world.”
There was a hint of sadness in Su Yunjin’s eyes, which was fleeting. “Why don’t you admit that you like him?”
“I have never been willing to admit it, because I don’t believe that I will like Shen Yuechuan.” Xiao Yunyun shrugged her shoulders and smiled. “But after the date with Qin Han, I suddenly understood that even if I didn’t admit that I liked Shen Yuechuan, I can’t make myself fall in love with others. I can’t deceive myself.”
In the end, Xiao Yunyun said in a resigned tone which sounded like she had accepted her fate, “So, I admit that I like Shen Yuechuan.”
