Yunhe was somewhat stunned when she saw Ye Chen sitting next to her.
"How...how did you get here?"
"I suddenly had a craving for the food here, so I came here."
"I didn't expect there to be so many people today. I see there aren't any empty seats right now. Do you mind if I sit down and share a table with you?"
Ye Chen smiled and looked at Wang Yuhang, then looked at Yun He.
"It's okay, then come eat with us, Yuhang. It's more lively with more people, right?"
"Yes."
Wang Yuhang took a sip of tea, and although he was somewhat unwilling, he nodded in agreement for Yun He's sake.
He just suddenly found himself here, and he didn't know if he would still have a chance to confess his feelings to Yunhe.
Then.
Ye Chen waved to the waiter.
"Could you please add another set of chopsticks and a bowl? Thank you."
"Okay, sir, please wait a moment."
"How about we add two more dishes? See if there's anything you'd like to eat?"
Yunhe thought that with one more person, it would be better to add more dishes, fearing that there wouldn't be enough to eat later.
Ye Chen took the menu from Yun He, glanced at it briefly, and then said, "Then let's add another cumin lamb chop and a honey-glazed chicken wing."
Ye Chen still remembered that he had eaten at Rong's house a couple of days ago, and Yun He had really enjoyed the lamb chops and chicken wings.
He could tell she liked the food, and since the restaurant happened to have those two dishes on the menu, he simply added two more dishes to match Yunhe's taste.
After Ye Chen added more food to the menu from the waiter, he turned around and found that Yun He had already washed and scalded his bowl and chopsticks.
"Have some jasmine tea, their tea is so strong and fragrant."
Yunhe poured tea for Ye Chen and handed him the cup.
"Do you like it?" Ye Chen asked, looking at her.
"Yeah, I quite like drinking it. The ones I buy outside never seem to taste as rich and fragrant as theirs."
After pouring tea for Ye Chen, Yun He immediately filled her own empty water glass.
"If you like it, take two packets of tea with you when you leave."
"May I?"
"Okay, I'll have the boss pack a few more bags for us later."
The owner of Guixiangju was an old friend of Ye Chen, so it was no problem for him to send a few packets of jasmine tea.
The two chatted and laughed, making Wang Yuhang, who was sitting opposite them, seem somewhat superfluous.
The man could only drink cup after cup of tea to ease the awkwardness of the moment.
Fortunately, Yunhe noticed and started chatting with Wang Yuhang.
"Yuhang, are you going back to your hometown for the Mid-Autumn Festival, or staying in Chengdu?"
“Going back to my hometown for the holidays, my mom still doesn’t quite feel comfortable spending the holidays here. She finds it lonely. Indeed, most of our relatives are in our hometown, and the old lady still prefers the feeling of visiting and chatting with them.”
Wang Yuhang thought that buying a house in Chengdu and bringing his mother over would make her very happy.
However, I have to go to work on weekdays, so only my mother and the nanny are at home. Occasionally, I will go downstairs in the community to chat with other residents.
But no matter how well we get along, it doesn't have the same sense of warmth and familiarity as my hometown.
Seeing his mother's dejected expression, Wang Yuhang considered returning to his hometown this time, but decided to let his mother make the decision herself.
Whether she chooses to stay in her hometown or return to Chengdu with him, he will let the old lady decide for herself; he won't force her this time.
"I think your hometown is in Dongguan?"
"Yes, that's right."
"Apart from going once during the summer vacation of my sophomore year, I haven't been back since then."
"Dongguan is indeed a scenic place, very suitable for living and tourism."
Yunhe remembered that when she went to Dongguan, it was Wang Yuhang who invited her, Su Yinwan, and a few other close classmates to go and have fun together.
I spent about a week there, and managed to visit all the attractions on the list.
However, Dongguan is far from Chengdu. Back then, it took about twelve hours to get there by train.
“I’m driving my mom back today, why don’t you come along too? I’ll show you the beautiful scenery of Dongguan City again.”
Wang Yuhang became interested and suggested with a smile.
"No need, she's not going to Guancheng. She's going back to Beicheng to be with her family today."
Before Yunhe could speak, Ye Chen snatched it away.
"Next time, after all, it's the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I need to go back to spend the reunion festival with my family."
Yunhe then explained.
"I'm sorry, Yunhe, this was indeed something I didn't consider carefully."
Wang Yuhang looked at Yun He with an apologetic expression.
"It doesn't matter."
Then, looking at Ye Chen across from him, who had a calm expression, he felt somewhat uncomfortable.
Not only did he suddenly barge into his and Yunhe's rare dinner, but he also sat next to Yunhe and kept interrupting him.
Wang Yuhang realized that the man in front of him might like Yun He.
This unexpected addition of a competitor caught him somewhat off guard.
At this point, the ordered main dishes were served one after another.
Ye Chen got up and ladled a bowl of conch slices, night-blooming cereus, and pork bone soup for Yun He.
"Thanks."
Yunhe accepted the soup bowl with both hands.
Seeing this, Wang Yuhang immediately picked up the serving chopsticks and put a piece of plump bullfrog meat on Yunhe's plate.
"Yunhe, I remember you loved eating frogs when you were in college. This looks pretty good, eat more."
"Thanks."
"She likes to eat lamb chops."
Ye Chen glanced at Wang Yuhang expressionlessly.
Immediately afterwards, he picked up a piece of lamb chop and placed it on the plate in front of Yunhe.
"Yunhe, this ginger stir-fried chicken tastes pretty good, you should try it."
Wang Yuhang put a few more pieces of chicken leg meat on her plate.
"She likes to eat chicken wings."
The next second, Ye Chen also put a few pieces of honey-glazed chicken wings on her plate.
Yunhe looked at the vegetables that were gradually piling up like a small mountain in front of her and spoke up to stop them.
"Alright, alright, stop putting food on my plate, you all eat too."
Now, the two grown men looked at each other and put down their chopsticks.
Yunhe put on gloves, grabbed the juicy lamb chop sprinkled with cumin, and happily started gnawing on it.
The way he was enjoying his meal might seem a bit rough to others, but it attracted the attention of the two men next to him.
They simply love Yunhe's genuine and true-to-her-self nature.
Perhaps sensing the intense gazes from those around her, Yunhe looked up at them.
Two large men were staring at her as she ate.
Yunhe awkwardly took a tissue to wipe her mouth and laughed, "You guys eat too, watch what I'm doing."
Then, the two of them started eating their own meals.
During the meal, there wasn't much conversation, and the lunch ended quickly.
Yunhe was very full, but thankfully she ate all the dishes and nothing was wasted.
"Please sit for a while, I'm going to the restroom."
After saying that, Ye Chen got up and walked towards the restroom.
The restrooms and the cashier are located in the same direction.
Yunhe felt that this scene was familiar.
She quickly pulled out a tissue to wipe her mouth and said to Wang Yuhang, "I'll go too, you sit for a while."
After saying that, Yunhe picked up her phone and walked towards the cashier.
