To accompany a beautiful woman to dinner, one should dress appropriately. Ye Cheng rummaged through his closet, found a slightly formal outfit and trousers, and put on leather shoes. This was the most formal he had ever dressed since his rebirth.
Chen Zhangfu rode the motorcycle away last night, claiming he wanted to get familiar with it and just wanted to have some fun.
Li Yong also went out to work, leaving Ye Cheng with no choice but to take the bus. Just as he stepped out, he saw Xiao Hu strolling over.
"Brother, where are you going? Aren't you going out to sea?"
"I'm not going out today, I have something to do."
"Brother, you're dressed so formally, you're like a groom, hahaha." Xiao Hu looked at Ye Cheng like this, it was so different from his previous shorts and slippers, he was really not used to it.
"Mind your own business. If you have nothing to do, help Aunt Qian fix up her pond. I want to raise shrimp."
"Yes, sir! I wish you success in winning the heart of your beauty."
Xiao Hu teased Ye Cheng and then quickly ran away.
Ye Cheng boarded the bus and watched the countryside fields and roadside trees recede outside the window. Suddenly, he felt a pang of melancholy. Should he recite a poem at this moment?
Spring Western Restaurant wasn't hard to find. Ye Cheng took a taxi and found it. To be honest, Western restaurants in this era weren't very formal. They just dimmed the lights and changed the menu to steak and pasta, but the atmosphere was still there.
Ye Cheng found a table and sat down. After a while, Yang Liu came over.
Wearing a floral maxi dress and with long, flowing hair, she truly was a beauty, leaving Ye Cheng staring in disbelief.
"What are you looking at? It's not like we don't know each other." Yang Liu spat at him.
"It's only natural for men to look at women."
"You can't expect anything good to come out of a dog's mouth." Yang Liu's face flushed slightly.
"What's up, beautiful lady? Did you invite me to dinner today because you have something on your mind?"
"Can't I invite you to dinner if there's nothing wrong?" Yang Liu rolled her eyes at him.
"Today is mainly to thank you for saving me last time. You order, I'll pay for whatever you want to eat today."
"Wow, a beautiful woman's life is only worth one Western meal? That's a bit cheap," Ye Cheng joked.
"Eat or not? If you don't want to, that's fine. I don't have that much money to treat you to a seafood feast."
"Eat it, it's a waste not to eat it, especially with a beautiful woman by my side."
The menu was handed to him, and Ye Cheng chose a mid-priced steak meal.
"You're offering me such a low price? Why don't you order something more expensive?" Yang Liu's big eyes sparkled, her long eyelashes fluttering on her eyelids. Those beautiful eyes were simply stunning.
"Beautiful women are more valuable than anything else."
"Get lost. If you don't speak properly, I'm leaving," Yang Liu said angrily.
"Okay, okay, then let's eat steak. Steak looks good too, hahaha."
Yang Liu looked at the guy speechlessly; he was driven by lust.
"How are you doing, beautiful lady? How's your recovery going?"
"It's nothing serious, I'll be fine after a few days of rest."
"Hey, why are you doing ocean research? Next time, you should study something from the river. The ocean is too dangerous, you'd better not go."
Ye Cheng remarked with a sigh, "The sea is never as peaceful as it appears on the surface."
“Why don’t you take me next time? I feel like you’re more familiar with the sea,” Yang Liu suddenly said.
Ye Cheng was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized what was happening.
"Damn it, I knew you had ulterior motives, but you still won't admit it."
"Don't swear, it sounds awful." Yang Liu frowned.
"Okay, okay, I won't swear. Going out to sea is really not interesting, and it's dangerous. And what's so interesting about those white dolphins? They're just dolphins."
Yang Liu's eyes sparkled, her lips pursed slightly, and she suddenly lowered her voice, speaking in a slightly coquettish tone.
"I really want to go, will you take me to see it?"
The soft, sweet voice made Ye Cheng's bones tremble. His Adam's apple bobbed, and he looked at the beautiful woman opposite him who was full of anticipation. He really couldn't bear to say no.
"this..."
"Is it okay?" Yang Liu raised her voice, her small mouth slightly pouting, her red lips shining into Ye Cheng's eyes like flames.
Damn, beautiful women really are deadly.
Ye Cheng shook his head vigorously and raised his hands in surrender, "Okay! Okay! You'd better put this away right now, or I'm going to transform."
"Tch! You think you can transform? Transform into what? The Big Bad Wolf, perhaps?"
"Pervert!"
Ye Cheng said through gritted teeth, "This is the first time I've ever felt such hatred towards a beautiful woman."
Upon hearing Ye Cheng utter the word "pervert," Yang Liu glared fiercely at him, then defiantly stabbed her fork into her steak, flashing her white teeth at Ye Cheng.
That fierce yet adorable little expression immediately made Ye Cheng laugh.
"You're just a toothless tiger, a little tiger at that, haha," Ye Cheng laughed.
The laughter hadn't even finished when a surprised voice came from behind.
"Ye Cheng?"
Ye Cheng's smile vanished, he turned around and glanced back, then froze instantly.
Depend on!
Xiaorou.
How did I end up running into Xiaorou in a place like this?
Ye Cheng felt a pang of panic, as if he had been caught cheating. Although it was all wishful thinking on his part, he had never imagined what it would be like if the two women were together.
"Xiao Rou, what a coincidence!" Ye Cheng greeted her stiffly.
Yang Liu looked at the girl in front of her with curiosity. She was tall and slender, wearing a denim overall dress. She was full of sunshine and youth, and had a sweet face. She was a beauty.
This Ye Cheng, he's quite popular with women, huh!
"Oh, I just happened to be having dinner with a friend here. And who is this?" Xiao Rou looked at Yang Liu with a curious expression.
There's a connection between beautiful women; two tigers can't share one mountain, and two beautiful women can't share one house.
Yang Liu straightened up and raised her head. "I'm Ye Cheng's high school classmate, Cheng. Aren't you going to introduce me?"
Ye Cheng's face darkened. Ah Cheng...
Damn it, what are you trying to do by calling me Ah Cheng at this time?
Ye Cheng coughed awkwardly, "Ah, this is Xiao Rou, a friend of mine."
"Oh, just a regular friend, hello." Yang Liu emphasized the word "regular."
Xiao Rou narrowed her eyes slightly, then gradually smiled and looked at Yang Liu.
Ye Cheng felt the lightning crackling in the air. Damn it, was it really necessary to do this when we had no grudge against each other?
"Sister, right? We're not exactly ordinary friends, are we? We've gone out to sea together several times, haven't we, Cheng?" Xiao Rou emphasized the word "sister" and looked at Ye Cheng with her arms crossed.
Ye Cheng is so angry he wants to die. And you're calling him "Ah Cheng" too? Are you trying to hurt him?
Hearing Xiaorou call her "sister" in a sarcastic tone, Yang Liu knew she was mocking her age, and her face immediately darkened.
Ye Cheng was speechless. The clear sky had suddenly turned into a storm with lightning and thunder.
If it were really related to me, I would have let it go. But after all this time, it turns out neither of them are my girlfriends, and I'm being made to look like a scumbag.
