Chapter 79, exclusively released...
"Oppa, did you give out that free coupon?"
After realizing what was happening, Fang Zhixia immediately dialed Quan Zhilong's number, praying in her heart that he wouldn't act too quickly.
Unfortunately, it seems that heaven did not hear her prayers, and G-Dragon's speed was much faster than she had imagined.
"Zhixia? Why are you calling me at this time?"
Looking at the time on his phone, G-Dragon was somewhat surprised.
"Don't worry about me. Why am I calling you at this time? First, answer whether you gave the free coupon to Jiang Yalin?"
"You mean this? I gave it to her when I got back, but... Zhixia, I have a question for you, don't be angry, you..."
"Are you trying to ask me if I already guessed how Jiang Yalin would react to this free coupon, and that's why I gave it to her on purpose?"
Fang Zhixia immediately understood what she wanted to ask. To be honest, at that moment he seemed to hear a cracking sound, as if something had split open.
The voice on the other end of the phone was calm, without any inflection. Kwon Ji-yong knew that Fang Zhixia was angry.
"Don't be angry, I was just asking, I didn't really mean it that way."
But when he said this, he seemed a little unsure of himself, knowing that asking such a question meant a lack of trust.
"I wouldn't say I'm angry, I'm just a little disappointed. I didn't expect that I would be seen this way in your eyes."
Fang Zhixia's reaction was too calm, so calm that even Quan Zhilong felt something was wrong. If this had happened to Jin Zhen'er, she would have exploded long ago, let alone been calm.
Perhaps because of his troublesome first love, he doesn't always see his girlfriends in the same light as Kim Jin-ah when he's in a relationship again, and he doesn't think that she might react the same way as Kim Jin-ah if something happens.
But it's obvious that Fang Zhixia is Fang Zhixia and Jin Zhen'er is Jin Zhen'er. These two people are not only different, but their personalities and temperaments are completely different. The only thing they have in common is their stunning good looks.
"No, you're not. I want to apologize to you. It's really my fault because I habitually put you in the image of my ex-girlfriend, and I thought that after something like this happened, you would react the same way she did. So I... I want to apologize to you. You are you, and she is she. You are two completely different individuals. I will correct this in the future."
Fang Zhixia wasn't angry, just disappointed. After hearing his explanation, she chose to forgive him. After all, she knew how chaotic his last relationship had been. She was here to date, not to argue. All she had to do was enjoy the relationship until she couldn't stand it anymore, and make sure she wouldn't regret dating him someday. That was enough for her.
"Oppa, could you please give me Jiang Yalin's contact information? Don't worry, I'm not going to confront her or argue with her. I just want to apologize, not through you. I want to tell her that I didn't mean any harm and just like her as a customer."
For some reason, Kwon Ji-yong suddenly felt a little uncomfortable because when Fang Zhixia mentioned Jiang Yalin just now, her tone was no longer calm and even, but instead carried an undisguised excitement.
Suddenly, I had this feeling that my girlfriend was about to be stolen away by my manager.
However, G-Dragon couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to give out Kang Ah-rin's contact information.
"You are my girlfriend."
After finishing the call, G-Dragon suddenly said something that made Fang Zhixia pause for a second before chuckling.
"Alaso, you are my boyfriend, and Jiang Yalin can't take that away from me."
Kwon Ji-yong felt relieved after hearing this, but did he ever think that although Kang Ah-rin couldn't take away his boyfriend status, she could take away his girlfriend (just kidding).
"Um...the phone...wait a minute...let me take this call..."
With difficulty, Kang Ah-rin pushed Lee Soo-hyuk, who had buried his head in her chest, away. She tidied her messy hair, sat up, and picked up her constantly vibrating phone. She found that the caller ID showed an unfamiliar number.
In the past, Jiang Yalin would have hung up without hesitation, but since becoming a manager, she has never missed a call from an unknown number.
"Nugu?"
The moment Kang Ah-rin sat up, Lee Soo-hyuk clung to her, hugged her from behind, and rested his chin on her shoulder.
Even then, he wouldn't behave, kissing her neck and earlobe every now and then, making it impossible for Jiang Yalin to concentrate on who was calling her. She kept trying to dodge, but she was right in his arms, so where could she hide?
"That's enough! I need to take this call, it might be work-related, don't disturb me!!!"
She reached out and blocked his lips from kissing her again, pushing his face back. Feeling the kiss in her hand, Jiang Yalin gave him a comforting kiss on the cheek before answering the phone call that was about to hang up automatically.
"Yo-bu-sai-yo?"
"Jiang Yalin, this is Fang Zhixia. I'm sorry to bother you by calling so late."
Jiang Yalin was surprised to receive Fang Zhixia's call.
"Fang Zhixia, is there something you need that's calling me so late?"
"I'm here to apologize. Zhilong said he would prepare an apology gift, and I thought of you because you really like my cooking. I thought of making you the number one and the last customer in my shop to enjoy free meals for life. But I forgot to consider your feelings. I really didn't mean to."
"Jiang Yalin, please don't take this to heart. My shop still needs you as a customer, and my cooking skills need your approval. I'm always very satisfied when I see you eating my food. Watching you enjoy my cooking gives me a great sense of accomplishment. So please, don't let this misunderstanding prevent you from ever coming to my shop again."
Fang Zhixia spoke very sincerely, and Jiang Yalin could feel the sincerity in her words even over the phone.
Actually, she didn't misunderstand that Fang Zhixia's behavior was intentional. Whether it was her feelings during their time together or the setting given by the novel "Little Chef", she knew that Fang Zhixia was actually a very good girl. Although she liked Kwon Ji-yong, she wouldn't blindly suspect others. So when she received the free coupon, all she felt was the regret of never being able to eat delicious food again.
But she didn't expect that Fang Zhixia would call her to apologize overnight. She could imagine Fang Zhixia's expression and reaction on the other end of the phone. She must have been nervous, anxious and annoyed.
"I had no misunderstanding, but if it weren't for your call, you would have really lost a customer who understands you very well. But your call came just in time, saving a heartbroken customer."
Upon hearing this, Fang Zhixia breathed a huge sigh of relief on the other end of the phone.
"As compensation, come to my shop tomorrow and I'll make you a dish that I've prepared just for you. Of course, everything else you order will be charged."
"Okay, then I'll start looking forward to it now."
The two chatted and laughed for a while longer before hanging up the phone, seemingly reluctant to end the conversation. As soon as Jiang Yalin hung up, she turned around and saw Li Zhuhe looking resentful. In a very good mood, she softly asked him a question.
"What's the matter?"
"I feel that in the future, my rivals in love may not only be men, but maybe women will also be included."
Lee Soo-hyuk had heard their conversation from beginning to end. He could only vaguely make out what the other person was saying, but he heard exactly what Kang Ah-rin was saying.
"You've never used that tone to coax me before."
It wasn't that he was being unreasonable, but seeing that she was in such a good mood, he wanted to take advantage of it and coax her.
"Because you're very well-behaved, you've never really been angry before, and besides, I've never treated anyone like this before."
As she spoke, Jiang Yalin extended a finger and gently pressed it against his forehead. Without much effort, just a light push, she easily pushed Lee Soo-hyuk, who was sitting, onto the bed.
She sat on his waist and abdomen, watching the man fall down with her momentum, her eyes filled with laughter, and then she bent down and pressed herself against him.
The night was still long, and the party for couples was just beginning.
"yesterday....."
"Stop! Zhixia has already explained it to me, you don't need to say anything more. I'm afraid things will only get more complicated if you keep talking. You're such a troublemaker, you're really terrible!!!"
G-Dragon was teased first thing in the morning and didn't dare to fight back. Everyone who got to see such a dramatic scene first thing in the morning was really struggling to hold back their laughter.
As for why they suppressed their laughter instead of laughing out loud, it's because they weren't Jiang Yalin; they were afraid of Kwon Ji-yong's retribution.
Today's itinerary was almost identical to yesterday's. After finishing her workday, Kang Ah-rin got out of the car in front of the Chinese restaurant, much to G-Dragon's surprise.
Of course, he got out of the car right after her. Jiang Yalin ignored him and stood at the entrance of the Chinese restaurant. She took a deep breath, her nose filled with the aroma of food.
She had been itching to know what Fang Zhixia was going to cook for her all day, but no matter how many messages she sent to subtly hint at it, this guy who cooked such delicious food didn't reveal a single thing.
She rushed in impatiently, only to bump right into Fang Zhixia, who was about to come out to see if they had arrived. Caught off guard, she collided with her, causing Fang Zhixia to stumble back two steps. Just as she was about to fall, Jiang Yalin swiftly reached out and grabbed her waist, pulling her into her arms and preventing her from falling to the ground.
This all happened so fast, it was over in the blink of an eye. G-Dragon, who was standing to the side and hadn't even reacted yet, looked at his girlfriend being held in his manager's arms, blinked, and suddenly felt that he shouldn't be there, but should have left with the car that had just driven away.
A-Du: Bro, have you ever heard a song?
