Bo Jinyan remained silent as he drove the car obediently with a small smile on his face.
“Ha!” Yu Lingfeng leaned against the backseat.
“Don’t worry. With me around, I will make sure you will only take her away in ten years.”
“Ten years… She would be an old lady by then.”
“Old lady? You can choose not to have her.”
Bo Jinyan’s expression turned solemn at that moment. “You can’t make such a joke.”
“Who said I am joking around?” Did he think he could take her away so easily after offending him? He could dream on!
Bo Jinyan shook his head and said helplessly, “I’ll take you to change clothes.”
“That’s more like it!”
At night, the Enchantress Bar was unexpectedly filled with people. Ever since Little Ah Mei’s quiet disappearance from the public eye, no one had seen her.
There was a rumor that she had been banned and another that she had quit the industry. Someone had even said that she had died… When Little Ah Mei was mentioned, Little Ah Di was naturally brought up too. The two of them had both become famous and eventually disappeared at around the same time.
Although Little Ah Mei had disappeared from the public eye, the bar was still around and business remained great.
That day, news had leaked that Little Ah Mei was going to appear at the Enchantress Bar. Therefore, there were more people there than usual.
Backstage…
“Xiao Ruo, it’s time to eat. After dinner, I’ll sing a few songs with you. How about that?” Yao Tiao placed the dishes on the table one by one.
Ye Erruo put the phone on the table and turned on the loudspeaker while staying on the phone with Mo Jiangye. She prepared the bowls and utensils as she responded, “Alright. Did you make this?”
“Ji Sichen made it.”
“Ji Sichen knows how to cook?”
“What? Are you underestimating me? Listen to me, Xiao Ruo, all the food prepared every day has been cooked by me. If you do not believe me, you can ask Yao Tiao!” Ji Sichen said as he brought the soup out.
“It’s very good!” Ye Erruo took in the smell of the food. It looked delicious at first glance.
“Ye Erruo, I’ve never heard you compliment me before.” At that moment, a voice filled with hidden bitterness came from the phone.
Ye Erruo picked up the phone hurriedly and turned off the loudspeaker. “Since when have I not complimented you?”
“Eh!” Yao Tiao’s expression was disdainful. It seemed like this couple was prepared to scatter another round of dog food for single people.
Ji Sichen smiled. “Alright, alright. Let’s eat.”
“Alright, I can’t talk to you anymore. We are going to eat,” Ye Erruo said.
“Fine.”
“Oh, right. After dinner, get the maids to make you some soup with rock sugar and pears.” He had been coughing every once in a while recently, so he needed to drink some soup to moisten his lungs.
“I do not have any dinner ingredients, so how can I ask them to do so?” Mo Jiangye smirked.
Ye Erruo drank a mouthful of soup. “You have no dinner ingredients? Where are the maids? What are you eating tonight?”
“Instant noodles,” Mo Jiangye spat out.
Ye Erruo widened her beautiful eyes. He was going to eat instant noodles?
When they had gone to the supermarket previously, she had bought several packets of instant noodles. They had been in the fridge all this while, but he had not known what they were. He had even refused to let her eat them. Why was he bringing them up now?
“The maids did not make dinner for you?”
“I am the only one at home. It would be a waste to make food only for me!” he said lazily.
Then, the sound of an instant noodle packet being ripped was heard loudly from the other end of the line!
It sounded intentional…
The corners of Ye Erruo’s lips twitched. Wasn’t she out just to have one meal? If she did not return home tonight, was he not going to sleep either?
“There’s no more hot water. Forget it, I will just eat it dry,” he said airily.
Ye Erruo rubbed her forehead. How could they not have hot water at home? This excuse was really…
“Alright, alright. Don’t eat it. Wait a few minutes, I will order takeout for you.”
“Oh. I will be eating takeout while you’ll be eating home-cooked food. That’s nice!” Mo Jiangye said softly.
Ye Erruo was confused. Weren’t they all just doing the same thing? Weren’t they having a meal?
