Chapter 135 I Already Have Someone I Like
"They hold a birthday party for me every year. It would seem a bit awkward if I didn't go." Mu Lingfeng answered the question irrelevantly.
His words wiped out all of Yun Jin's excitement.
"However, I can go to their place first to go through the procedures and then come to you." The next second, Mu Lingfeng's words made Yun Jin burst into laughter.
After a half-second pause, Mu Lingfeng asked, "Come to think of it, have you figured out how to celebrate my birthday? I've said before that if I don't have a creative idea, I won't go to the party."
Hearing this, Yun Jin unconsciously lowered her voice and asked in a cautious tone: "I would like to invite you to Blue Water Bay, and I will personally cook for you to celebrate your birthday. Is this idea to your liking?"
As Yun Jin spoke, she felt that Mu Lingfeng would probably refuse. Given Mu Lingfeng's status, he would definitely look down on her way of celebrating her birthday.
But the words had already been spoken, and Yun Jin had no way to refute them. She could only wait patiently for Mu Lingfeng's answer.
"You little money-grubber, I pay you so much every month, and for my birthday, have you ever thought of treating me to a meal at a five-star hotel?"
Sure enough, after hearing what she said, Mu Lingfeng couldn't help but complain.
Yun Jin was about to explain when she heard Mu Lingfeng continue, "However, it is creative to eat a meal you cooked yourself. Okay, I will definitely come to Blue Water Bay and eat all the dishes you cook."
The reversal was so fast that Yun Jin couldn't believe her ears. After a few seconds, she said, "Mr. Mu, are you kidding me?"
"Do I look like I'm joking?" Mu Lingfeng said seriously, staring at Yun Jin from the side.
Yun Jin shook his head honestly.
"Have you decided what to eat now?" Mu Lingfeng then changed the topic again.
Yun Jin continued to shake her head. Her mind was already occupied by Mu Lingfeng's birthday, and she had no energy to think about other things.
Mu Lingfeng gave Yun Jin a look that said "I knew you haven't thought it through", then he started the car and left.
Half an hour later, Mu Lingfeng drove the car to a luxuriously decorated store.
"The beef here is very good." Mu Lingfeng said to Yun Jin when getting off the car.
Yun Jin nodded in agreement, but her eyes were looking around.
This place is not far from my mother and Uncle Chen’s house. After dinner, I can go over to see them.
Yun Jin thought to herself as she walked.
I have to say that what Mu Lingfeng said before entering the door was indeed correct. The beef in this restaurant is very well cooked. Whether it is roasted, stewed, or steamed, it is very delicious. Even Yun Jin, who usually doesn't like to eat beef, couldn't help but eat a lot.
"Secretary Yun, it seems that this store is very much to your taste." Mu Lingfeng said to Yun Jin when the two came out of the store.
Yun Jin nodded in approval and responded, "Well, it tastes really good. I'll bring my mother and Uncle Chen to eat here when I have time."
Thinking that this place was not far from her mother's house, Yun Jin blurted out.
"Is your mother's house close to here?" Mu Lingfeng, who was quick-witted, heard a clue from Yun Jin's words.
Yun Jin nodded and replied with a smile: "My mother lives at the back of this street."
As Yun Jin spoke, she pointed to a street across from them and said to Mu Lingfeng.
"Mr. Mu, I want to go see my mother now, so please don't bother taking me back to Blue Mountain Bay." After pointing out the way, Yun Jin made a request to Mu Lingfeng.
"Secretary Yun, I'm already at your doorstep, why don't you invite me in to sit down?" Hearing that Yun Jin was asking him to leave first, Mu Lingfeng immediately said unhappily.
Yun Jin didn't expect Mu Lingfeng to make this request. His head buzzed. He stared at him without saying anything.
"What's the matter? It's inconvenient?" Seeing Yun Jin staring at him stupidly, Mu Lingfeng frowned and asked.
Yun Jin came back to his senses, immediately shook his head and responded, "Of course not."
"Since it's not, let's go in and take a look together." Mu Lingfeng glanced at Yun Jin and said to her with a smile.
Yun Jin hesitated for half a second and nodded silently.
The two walked to the car. Yun Jin came to her senses and said to Mu Lingfeng with a faint smile: "Mr. Mu, the alley over there is very narrow and the car can't drive in. How about..."
"Secretary Yun, do you really not want me to go in with you?" Mu Lingfeng interrupted Yun Jin before she could finish her words.
"Of course not, it's just..." Seeing that Mu Lingfeng was a little angry, Yun Jin hurriedly defended herself, but when she talked about the reason, she became hesitant.
"Just what?" Hearing the hidden meaning in her words, Mu Lingfeng asked.
"Mr. Mu, because of Yun Wanshan, my mother is very resistant to people who are not from the same class as us. I'm worried that when she sees you, she will have crazy thoughts."
Yun Jin's disgust towards Yun Wanshan made her unwilling to call him "Dad", but Yun Jin believed that even if she did not reveal Yun Wanshan's identity, with Mu Lingfeng's information, he would definitely know who he was.
"Weren't your parents a well-matched couple?" Mu Lingfeng's question showed that he knew who Yun Wanshan Yun Jin was talking about.
Yun Jin nodded slightly and said nothing.
"In that case, forget it." Understanding why Yun Jin didn't want him to go in, Mu Lingfeng didn't force him.
His words made Yun Jin feel relieved. Then, Mu Lingfeng drove away under Yun Jin's gaze.
After chatting with Zhang Guilan for a while, Yunjin left.
"Xiao Jin, come home for dinner this weekend." Before leaving, Chen Zhi said to Yun Jin with a smile.
Thinking of what happened with Li Dong last time, Yun Jin wanted to ask Chen Zhi if Li Dong and the others would come again this weekend, but seeing Chen Zhi's smiling face, Yun Jin couldn't ask.
Yun Jin’s premonition turned out to be good. When she returned home on the weekend, Li Dong was really there. But this time, Li Dong was alone; his parents did not come.
Without the other party's parents present, Yun Jin felt that she was not as nervous as last time.
"Xiao Jin, I've come to Binhai to work. When we have free time, we can go out and play together." After dinner, Zhang Guilan and Chen Zhi went to look after the store, leaving the space to Yun Jin and Li Dong. As soon as they left, Li Dong said to Yun Jin.
Knowing Li Dong's feelings for her, Yun Jin thought it was necessary to make things clear. She didn't want Li Dong to have any illusions about her: "Li Dong, I already have someone I like. It's impossible for us."
"I heard from Uncle Chen that you are not in a relationship. If that's the case, then you must be secretly in love with the other person. Secret love doesn't always lead to any result."
"So, Xiaojin, I think I still have a chance."
Li Dong finally met someone he liked, and he was unwilling to give up so easily.
Li Dong's words left Yun Jin speechless for a moment. There was nothing wrong with the other person liking her. What right did she have to ask the other person not to like her?
Seeing that Yun Jin stopped talking, Li Dong thought that he had not completely failed. Looking at Yun Jin, he laughed.
Soon, it was Mu Lingfeng's birthday.
"Wait for me, I'll be there soon." Before leaving get off work, Mu Lingfeng assured Yun Jin.
Yun Jin nodded and watched Mu Lingfeng leave.
After returning home, Yunjin started cooking.
After preparing several signature dishes, Yun Jin sat on the sofa, waiting for Mu Lingfeng to arrive.
At seven o'clock, Mu Lingfeng was nowhere to be seen.
At eight o'clock, still no one came.
When the clock pointed to nine o'clock, Yun Jin finally heard the doorbell. She couldn't wait to get up from the sofa and quickly opened the door.
"Secretary Yun, President Mu is drunk." Outside the door, Uncle Zhang held the drowsy Mu Lingfeng and said to Yun Jin.
Yun Jin didn’t expect things to turn out like this. She was stunned for a moment before reaching out to help Uncle Zhang.
As soon as Mu Lingfeng was laid down on the sofa, Uncle Zhang said goodbye.
After Uncle Zhang left, Yun Jin went forward to check on Mu Lingfeng, but was pulled into his arms by the drunk Mu Lingfeng, and they both fell on the sofa together.
