When the workday ended in the afternoon, Ye Xin was already waiting downstairs.
"Darling, how about we go to the night market?" Ye Xin said to Wei Xueqing.
"Night market?" Wei Xueqing frowned and said, "Are night markets in the country safe?"
In her impression, night markets back home were synonymous with dirty and chaotic.
"No way!" Ye Xin said.
Yang Chen, who was on the side, said calmly, "Night markets are indeed not very clean, but there are a lot of delicious things. I suggest you give it a try, it’s quite nice."
"Right!" Ye Xin pulled Wei Xueqing along and said.
Wei Xueqing glanced at Yang Chen, thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Alright, let’s give it a try then!"
"Yay! Let’s go!" Ye Xin cheered, holding Yang Chen with the left hand and Wei Xueqing with the right hand.
"We should have brought Yanyan, she would definitely like night market food," Ye Xin said.
Yang Chen slightly shook his head, "Forget it, she’s still not fully recovered and her immunity is weak."
"Nonsense!" Ye Xin said, "Yanyan is almost better, the doctor said she’ll be out of the hospital in a few days!"
"Really!" Yang Chen hadn’t asked the doctor about this matter, it seems his medicine was working.
The three of them drove to a street full of night markets, it was really lively, a sea of people.
"Wow! There are so many people here!" Wei Xueqing exclaimed.
"Exactly!" Ye Xin laughed, "This feels like life!"
People have always been abundant, so why stay secluded in the mountains? Flying is for airplanes, not humans.
Ye Xin particularly enjoys such simple but lively life, planning to find a small village to live in when she really retires someday.
At the night market, there were many white-collar workers on the side booths selling clothes, two women excitedly picking items.
Yang Chen’s mouth twitched involuntarily, these two were wearing clothes not cheaper than a thousand bucks, what were they thinking picking clothes for as low as ten or even nine ninety-nine bucks?
Finally, each of them selected two poor-quality fabric clothes and came back cheerfully.
Yang Chen carried them for the ladies, feeling quite helpless. He figured they would end up like the cosmetics they bought from the supermarket last time, lying unused at home.
Continuing forward, there were almost shoulder-to-shoulder crowds and many seemed to be inching towards Ye Xin’s side.
Yang Chen couldn’t stand it anymore, pulled Ye Xin over, and said, "Hold onto Xueqing, don’t let people take advantage!"
Ye Xin giggled, stared at Yang Chen, and said, "Why are you so conservative, a little touch won’t take a piece of flesh!"
Yang Chen glared, "They wouldn’t dare! Touch you once, and I’ll break their legs!"
"Heehee!" Ye Xin loved Yang Chen’s domineering side, hugging him with a face full of happiness.
Wei Xueqing looked at the sweet couple and felt a sense of emptiness inside her.
Originally she still harbored a slight fantasy about Qian Hai, but now it seemed love had long since crumbled.
The night market was full of people, thronging in twos and threes, it seemed only she was alone, isolated by the whole world.
"Let’s go, darling!" Ye Xin hugged Yang Chen and pulled Wei Xueqing along.
Walking ahead, Ye Xin pointed to a stall selling ice cream and said, "Honey, I want ice cream!"
"I want too!" Wei Xueqing said.
"Alright, what flavors do you want?" Yang Chen smiled, ice cream was still affordable for him.
Ye Xin thought for a moment and said, "I want strawberry!"
"I want vanilla," Wei Xueqing said.
"Okay, wait here." Yang Chen squeezed through to line up.
He bought three, one chocolate for himself, strawberry for Ye Xin, and vanilla for Wei Xueqing.
Handing the ice creams to the two, they both seemed very happy.
As Yang Chen handed the ice cream to Ye Xin, she chuckled and opened her mouth, "Ah-woo!"
The whole ice cream went into Ye Xin’s mouth, leaving just the end of the cone.
Yang Chen was dumbfounded.
Watching Ye Xin enjoy the ice cream with her eyes squinted, why did the previous action feel so...
"Delicious! Honey, I want more!" Ye Xin wasn’t afraid of the cold, downed the ice cream in one bite and shouted.
Want more... I’ll get it!
Yang Chen immediately turned around and bought another ice cream.
Yang Chen handed it to Ye Xin, and she opened her mouth again, devouring it.
At this moment, Yang Chen couldn’t help but say, "Girl, can you not showcase one-bite gulps in front of me?"
Such temptation, Yang Chen really couldn’t resist!
Ye Xin blinked and said, "What’s wrong? I’m not afraid of the cold, big bites make ice cream more thrilling!"
On the side, Wei Xueqing said, "You don’t seem like a typical girl at all, even more manly than a man. Normally, girls eat ice cream bit by bit!"
Ye Xin pouted, "Then you eat slowly. Besides, look at all the people, polluted air, all sorts of dust..."
Hearing Ye Xin’s standards, Wei Xueqing looked at the half-licked ice cream in her hand and suddenly lost her appetite.
Seeing this, Yang Chen couldn’t help but laugh and said, "Alright, Ye Xin is just teasing you, it’s not that scary!"
Speaking, Yang Chen ruffled Ye Xin’s hair, punishing her for being naughty.
Ye Xin giggled, sticking her tongue out adorably, enjoying Yang Chen’s affection.
Wei Xueqing shook her head and threw the ice cream into the trash.
Seeing this, Yang Chen’s expression slightly changed, but he didn’t say anything.
The three of them continued walking, inside there were many stalls selling snacks and trinkets that the two girls liked a lot, buying one after another.
The two girls fancied a peach blossom fan, and Wei Xueqing took out money to buy it.
Ye Xin pulled Yang Chen into a small shop, pointing inside at the antique flame robes and said, "Darling, do you think these flame robes are pretty? And this bag, it’s so beautiful!"
Yang Chen nodded, they were indeed quite pretty. These clothes, and the bags included, were all made from linen, very finely crafted, exuding a strong classical charm.
At this time, a sudden scream came from outside, "My bag!"
Yang Chen immediately recognized it as Wei Xueqing’s voice.
Yang Chen rushed out at once.
A bald guy grabbed Wei Xueqing’s bag and ran, Yang Chen shouted loudly and chased after him!
The bald guy seemed to have had some training, running very fast.
If it were someone else chasing the bald guy, they probably wouldn’t catch him. But today, the bald guy met Yang Chen, he was destined for bad luck.
Yang Chen quickly sprinted ahead, one flying kick knocked the bald guy to the ground.
Picking up the wallet, Yang Chen pointed at the bald guy and said sternly, "With a strong body like yours, why be a thief?"
The bald guy glared fiercely, turned over, angrily glaring at Yang Chen, and pointed at him, cursing, "You moron, dare to hit me, you’re dead today!"
"Dead your ass!" Ye Xin caught up, directly kicking the bald guy on the chin.
The bald guy’s eyes widened, thudding to the ground, unconscious.
"Uh..." Yang Chen looked at Ye Xin, annoyed.
Ye Xin angrily said, "What? Such people deserve a beating! Look at him strong as an ox, bullying others with his size. He could earn money on a construction site, but he chooses to be a rogue here, deserves a beating!"
Several people walked out from the shadows, glaring at Ye Xin and her group coldly, "There are people for every job. Without thieves, where would the security officers come from? You beat my guy today, so you need to give something in return!"
When Yang Chen saw the people walking out from the corner, his eyes widened in disbelief.
