Ye Chen, however, maintained a very natural expression.
This was clearly an action he took on his own conscious decision.
He didn't feel there was anything wrong with it.
An hour later, Yunhe finished off the last piece of frog meat in the pot.
I'm finally stuffed and satisfied.
She finished the milk tea Ye Chen bought for her.
"Are you full?"
"Mmm, I'm so full."
"You rest for a bit, I'll go place the order."
"Hmm? No need, I can just pay here. It's very convenient to just scan the code."
After saying that, Yunhe picked up her phone, which was placed aside, and prepared to open WeChat to scan the QR code to pay.
Unexpectedly, Ye Chen snatched her phone away.
"I'll do it."
"No need. You always pay for meals, so I'll feel embarrassed to go out to eat with you again next time."
Yunhe pouted and got up to take her phone back from Ye Chen.
"It's okay, I'll have dinner with you and I'll happily pay the bill, just listen to me."
Seeing that Yunhe's hand kept pulling at his, Ye Chen simply grabbed her hand in return.
Then he led her to sit down.
"Stop resisting, I'll buy it."
Ye Chen quickly opened his phone and paid the bill in the next second.
Only then did he release Yunhe's hand with satisfaction.
Yunhe sighed helplessly.
It seems she owes Ye Chen several meals; how is she going to repay him?
The main reason is that men don't like drinking milk tea or eating snacks from outside.
This gave her a bit of a headache.
"Let's go."
"good."
Ye Chen got up first, and after Yun He walked ahead, he followed behind and left the bullfrog restaurant together.
At this moment, Yunhe suddenly had an idea.
"Are you busy this afternoon? If not, how about I treat you to a movie? There's a really popular movie out recently."
It was thanks to the bulletin board in the mall displaying recently released movies that Yunhe was reminded.
He invited her to dinner, so she decided to invite him to a movie.
"No rush, where should we go?"
Ye Chen was off today and had nothing to do.
Although Duanmu Jun has returned to live in Rongcheng, she doesn't seem to need his company much.
With Rong's mother around, they were very close every day.
"It's upstairs, come on. I'll take you there."
After saying that, Yunhe unconsciously took Ye Chen's hand.
There are many people in the mall, so by holding his hand like this, the two of you won't get separated.
Yunhe used this reason to convince herself.
Fortunately, Ye Chen didn't push him away, and the two walked side by side toward the movie theater upstairs.
"Yunhe".
Just then, a familiar voice called out to Yunhe.
Yunhe turned around in the direction of the voice and saw Wang Yuhang.
It's not the weekend, why am I seeing him here?
"What a coincidence, what are you doing here?"
"I came here for lunch with my colleagues, and I thought your back looked familiar. I didn't expect it to really be you."
"You're here to eat too?"
Wang Yuhang glanced at Yun He, then at Ye Chen beside him.
The sight of their hands clasped together was particularly irritating to him.
At first, Wang Yuhang refused to believe that Yunhe was in a relationship, thinking it was just an excuse for her to reject him.
Looking at it today, it seems to be true.
His eyes, though lowered, held a hint of disappointment, yet he still managed a forced smile.
"Yes, we just finished lunch and are about to go upstairs to see a movie."
Yunhe gripped Ye Chen's hand tightly, afraid that the truth would be revealed.
Ye Chen could also sense Yun He's nervousness, and he pursed his lips as he looked at her.
I have no idea why this is happening.
"Then I won't bother you anymore, have fun."
Knowing he had no chance to win Yunhe back, Wang Yuhang had no choice but to let go.
"Okay, goodbye."
Yun He nodded slightly and prepared to leave with Ye Chen.
Suddenly, Wang Yuhang spoke again, "Ye Chen, right? Can I have a word with you?"
Ye Chen was puzzled. Could it be that this man wanted to declare war on him?
"Yunhe, go wait for me over there."
Yunhe couldn't figure out what Wang Yuhang was up to this time, and her heart was in her throat.
"Listen to me, go wait for me there for a few minutes, I'll come find you later."
Ye Chen looked at Yun He with gentle eyes and affectionately patted the back of her head.
The overwhelming sweetness of their romance was almost overwhelming for Wang Yuhang.
After Yun He left, Ye Chen looked at Wang Yuhang with a serious expression.
"What is it? What do we have to talk about?"
"cough."
Wang Yuhang was intimidated by Ye Chen's sharp gaze and pretended not to see it.
"Yunhe is a girl I've liked for many years. I've had feelings for her since my sophomore year of college. Unfortunately, I confessed my feelings to her back then, but she rejected me."
Wang Yuhang recalled the process of pursuing Yun He.
I regret my cowardice and giving up back then.
If I persist, will the outcome be different?
"Later, I met her again. I thought it was Cupid giving me another chance, so I cherished it this time."
"Who would have thought that just two weeks ago, when I finally confessed my feelings to her, I was still rejected."
Ye Chen listened quietly as Wang Yuhang recounted his relationship with Yun He.
Only then did I realize how charming Yunhe was, that a boy had liked her for so many years.
It seems he needs to seize the opportunity.
As he listened, his head was tightly furrowed.
Then, Wang Yuhang continued, looking at Ye Chen, "The reason she rejected me was that you two were already dating, and she was the one who confessed first. To be honest, I don't think you treat Yunhe any better than I do, but feelings can't be forced."
