Wencai did not give up because of Qingke's few words. He continued to look at Qingke lovingly and expressed his attitude towards Chacha to Qingke.
His impatient statement made Qing Ke feel that the love he talked about was so cheap, as if he was begging for what he wanted, without any emotion in sight.
Qing Ke was no longer at the age where she could only talk about feelings. If Wen had treated her like this before, she would have married him without hesitation. But now, she had no choice. Cha Cha became the key to her decision.
She looked at the innocent Cha Cha next to her and pushed the ring box on the table towards Wencai. "Wencai, we agreed to just reminisce about the past. I don't want us to be anything more than friends."
At this time, the proprietress happened to come over with coffee. When she saw the ring on the table, she really thought that the two of them were destined to be together and that good things were about to happen.
She placed the coffee on the table, looked at the ring, and said with a smile, "Miss Shang, Mr. Li, please try it and see if my skills have deteriorated. This... means good things are coming! Congratulations, I wish you two a happy marriage and a long life together. Don't forget to send me the wedding invitation!"
After hearing what the proprietress said, the two looked at each other, not knowing how to respond.
Seeing the two people's reactions, the proprietress was a little puzzled. She looked at them awkwardly. In order to avoid being so embarrassed, she shifted her gaze to Cha Cha.
He leaned over and touched Cha Cha's little face. "Little sister, you're so cute! What's your name?"
"Cha Cha!" Cha Cha responded to the proprietress while drinking the milk in the cup.
"Cha Cha! What a nice name! Is the milk sweet enough? Auntie added two pieces of sugar specially for you."
"Mmm! It's delicious, thank you, Auntie!"
The proprietress and Cha Cha started chatting happily, while Qing Ke and Wen Cai each stirred the spoon in their coffee cup.
After a long while, Wencai took a sip of coffee and said, "The coffee ground by the boss lady is still as delicious as before. It's the only one of its kind. You can only taste it by coming to the boss lady's place."
"Haha! Mr. Li, thank you for the compliment. If you like it, please come often in the future."
"Of course, of course."
"Okay, then you guys take your time drinking and chatting, I'm going to get busy."
The proprietress was a very smooth person. Although Wencai and Qingke did not give her a way out, she helped herself out of the situation.
She smiled and turned to walk towards the bar, but she was muttering in her heart: What on earth is going on between these two people? It's weird. This is the first time I've seen a couple who don't want to listen to other people's blessings.
She returned to the bar and saw two waiters pointing at Qingke and Wencai and whispering to each other.
"Hey! What are you two doing? Why are you just chatting here instead of doing anything?"
The two waiters quickly stopped whispering and went about their own business.
Out of curiosity, the proprietress casually asked, "You two were chatting so enthusiastically just now, what were you talking about?"
The two waiters looked at each other, feeling a little awkward.
One of the waiters replied: "Madam, that's all gossip you don't want to hear."
The proprietress sat down on a chair, flipping through the account book, and replied to the waiter nonchalantly, "It's okay. I'm free anyway, so I might as well tell you something to kill time."
"You really want to hear it? Are you kidding?"
"Do I look like I'm joking? When I tell you not to speak, you keep talking, and when I tell you to, you become shy."
After the boss lady said this, the waiter no longer had any scruples. He quickly put down his coffee cup, came close to the boss lady and whispered, "Boss lady, are those two over there your friends?"
The waiter shifted his gaze towards Qingke and Wencai, looking furtive.
After hearing what the waiter said, the proprietress also turned her gaze towards Qing Ke and Wen Cai, then looked at the waiter with a puzzled look, "I guess so! They are two old customers from the past."
"Then Madam Boss, can you tell me what the relationship between the two of them is?"
"Does this... have anything to do with the gossip you guys were chatting about?"
"Of course!" The waiter's expression became a little excited when he heard the boss lady ask this. "Boss lady, you really don't know! That woman is quite famous lately! Her affair with the prince of the bankrupt Wen Dou Company has been making a lot of noise lately."
"Celebrity? The prince of Wendou Company?"
After hearing what the waiter said, the proprietress was even more confused and became curious about the gossip the waiter was talking about.
The waiter was very anxious when he saw that the boss lady didn't know anything about the question.
