Chapter 126 But I Can’t Bear It
The three girls went to a French restaurant.
After finishing the meal, Gu Zhiyuan was still reluctant to leave and didn’t want to go back.
"So we're just going to break up like this? How about we set up another party tonight?"
"Let me treat you to a massage. I know a really good place!" Gu Zhiyuan chuckled. "The technicians there are all over 180cm tall, handsome and energetic. They provide excellent service and are incredibly emotional. I guarantee you'll want to go back again after your first visit!"
Cen Wan: "Aren't you still pursuing Master Shen?"
Gu Zhiyuan: "That's not a conflict. I'm going to go relax so I can recover as soon as possible."
Jiang Yuan's interest was instantly piqued: "I've heard people mention it before. Is it the one on Anning Road?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Gu Zhiyuan nodded like a chick pecking at rice, "That's the one. My friend said the experience was top-notch."
"Your friend?" Jiang Yuan immediately grasped the key point, "So you haven't been there either?"
Gu Zhiyuan: "I just haven't found the right friends to go with me yet, so today is a good day to go."
"Sure," Jiang Yuan looked at Cen Wan, "Wan Wan, what do you say?"
Cen Wan: “I…”
She was still thinking when her cell phone rang. It was Shen Yixiao calling.
"Baby, have you finished eating? I'm at the door."
Cen Wan listened to Shen Yixiao's low, magnetic voice coming from the phone, and a trace of guilt flashed in her eyes: "Well, I just finished eating."
"Okay, then you sit for a few minutes. I'll come in after I park the car."
After hanging up the phone, Cen Wan looked at the two of them a little embarrassedly: "Chen Yixiao is here to pick me up, he's already outside."
Gu Zhiyuan frowned: "Why is he so clingy!"
Jiang Yuan shrugged and looked at Gu Zhiyuan: "So, just go back directly?"
Gu Zhiyuan blinked her big eyes and looked at Cen Wan: "Wanwan, next time you go out, don't bring Chen Yixiao with you. We will take you to have fun together then."
Cen Wan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Okay."
Just as she agreed, Shen Yixiao had already walked a few meters away from them. Gu Zhiyuan pouted: "He's here."
Cen Wan turned around and saw Shen Yixiao striding towards her. Under the bright lights of the restaurant, he was tall and straight, with handsome features, and he still stood out among the crowd.
She curled her lips, her eyebrows and eyes showing a soft arc: "Why did you come so soon?"
"There's nothing important going on at the company."
Shen Yixiao walked over to her, put his hand on her shoulder, and looked at Jiang Yuan and Gu Zhiyuan with an attitude of "one of us", his tone was particularly gentle: "Have you finished eating? I'll give you a ride on the way."
Jiang Yuan waved his hand: "No, I can just take a taxi."
"Where's Miss Gu?"
Gu Zhiyuan: Why are you pretending to be a gentleman?
"I'll ask the driver to pick me up." She looked at Jiang Yuan, "Sister Yuan, don't take a taxi. I'll ask the driver to drop you off later."
"Don't reject me. I've been rejected once today."
Jiang Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Okay."
Gu Zhiyuan called the waiter: "Pay the bill."
The waiter had a perfect smile on his face: "This gentleman has already bought it."
Gu Zhiyuan frowned, she had agreed to treat everyone!
Shen Yixiao is such a dog!
Shen Yixiao looked at Cen Wan and said, "Then let's go back. I'm a little hungry too."
Cen Wan was stunned: "You haven't eaten yet?"
She thought that if she told him that she wanted to have dinner with Jiang Yuan and the others, he would eat directly at the company.
Shen Yixiao: "I wasn't hungry just now."
Cen Wan frowned. It was already dark and they were almost missing dinner time.
"Would you like to eat here?"
Shen Yixiao shook his head: "I don't want to eat French food."
"So what do you want to eat?"
Shen Yixiao: "I want to eat the noodles you cooked."
"good."
Cen Wan looked at Jiang Yuan and Gu Zhiyuan: "Then we'll go back first. We'll meet again another day."
Jiang Yuan: "Okay."
Gu Zhiyuan: "Okay."
After Cen Wan and Shen Yixiao left, Gu Zhiyuan looked at Jiang Yuan and belatedly realized, "Why do I feel weird? It's like I've encountered a huge white lotus."
Jiang Yuan confirmed her: "No need to feel, it's just like that."
"Peerless white lotus, thousand-year-old Longjing."
"The rank is not low."
The two looked at each other.
"Fuck, he's such a dog, the tea has to be served quietly!"
"It's not the first time either."
…
At this time, a certain person had just opened the passenger door for Cen Wan and sat on it, protecting her head.
Cen Wan opened the mobile phone app: "What kind of noodles do you want to eat? I'll buy some vegetables."
Shen Yixiao fastened his seat belt and turned the car around and drove to a nearby noodle shop: "No need to buy food, I can just eat in the store."
Cen Wan raised her eyes: "Didn't you say you wanted to eat what I cooked?"
"It's too tiring to go back and cook. You've been tired all day, so take a good rest."
"I'll just eat whatever I want."
"It's nice to have you by my side."
Cen Wan: "It's not that troublesome actually. It's quick."
Shen Yixiao placed his fingers on the steering wheel, his eyes looking at the road ahead, his thin lips slightly parted: "But I can't bear to leave."
Her hands used to be used for painting, and he couldn't bear to let her do this.
Cen Wan was suddenly stunned, and an indescribable sourness surged up, carrying a damp mist, instantly soaking her heart.
Her nose felt sore. She didn't cry when she ran around asking people for help to find a professional doctor for her grandmother all those years. She didn't cry when she rushed to tutor in the heavy rain and got soaked all over. She didn't cry when she started learning to cook and was constantly splashed with oil and burned. But at this moment, she had the urge to cry.
The feeling of being cherished, cared for, and well-cared for made her eyes warm.
It was like a person who had been walking alone for a long time in the dark, snow-covered night, and saw the warm lights in the cabin ahead.
You know, that door will definitely open for you.
Cen Wan bit her lip, not wanting Shen Yixiao to see the tears in her eyes. She turned her head to look out the window.
South City is especially lively at night, ablaze with lights and flashing neon signs. Bright signs outside shopping malls intertwine with the lights of residential areas, and the sidewalks bustle with people, forming the city's bustling nightlife.
She hadn't had a good look at the city for a long time.
"Baby?" Shen Yixiao hadn't seen her speak for a while, so he turned and looked at her, "Why aren't you talking?"
Cen Wan: "I was just thinking about something."
"Thinking about what?"
Cen Wan met his gaze and curled her lips: "Thinking about why I have the best boyfriend in the world."
Shen Yixiao suddenly froze, a hint of shock flashing in his eyes.
Cen Wan rarely praised him so directly and enthusiastically, and she even used the term "boyfriend".
However, meeting her clear, beautiful and sincere eyes, Shen Yixiao couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth: "It only shows that you have good taste."
After two seconds: "Something's wrong. You're suddenly praising me like this. Did you do something to let me down?"
Cen Wan: "..."
Shen Yixiao: "What bad things did you do by following them?"
Cen Wan: "I take back what I just said."
Shen Yixiao: "Take it back, I heard it too."
Cen Wan: "Childish."
Shen Yixiao: "Baby, praise me a little more. I love to hear it."
Cen Wan: "Shameless."
Shen Yixiao: "What? You said you love me, and I love you too."
Cen Wan: "..."
…
Shen Yixiao ate a bowl of beef noodles in an old noodle restaurant. While he was eating, Cen Wan sat beside him.
"You have to eat on time from now on, otherwise it's bad for your stomach."
"Let Chen Yu remind you on time."
Shen Yixiao remained calm: "Chen Yu has a bad memory and often forgets things."
Cen Wan expressed her doubt: "How is that possible? Isn't Chen Yu your special assistant?"
He handled everything properly, big or small, official or personal.
"He's doing OK at the company, but when it comes to taking care of people, he's always careless, even as a grown man."
Cen Wan understood his hidden meaning but didn't expose him: "Then I'll remind you next time?"
Shen Yixiao's dark eyes looked straight at her: "But, will it be too troublesome?"
Cen Wan curled her lips and said, "Forget it then."
"Hmm?" Shen Yixiao looked at her with the eyes of a scumbag, "You clearly agreed just now."
He put down his chopsticks and said in self-deprecation, "I might as well starve to death."
Cen Wan laughed: "I know, Shen Yixiao, you are such a scoundrel."
Shen Yixiao: So what if I'm a scoundrel?
As long as I can always get my wife's attention, it doesn't matter if I'm shameless.
