Chapter 300: 0300 I’ve seen being forcefully fed dog food, but never seen someone delivering it to the door themselves Chapter 300: 0300 I’ve seen being forcefully fed dog food, but never seen someone delivering it to the door themselves Ye Zhichen’s complexion wasn’t looking good. She had one hand over her stomach, but she was still trying hard to maintain a calm and composed appearance.
However, her small movements naturally didn’t escape Su Ran’s eyes.
“Zhichen, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
Su Ran’s cool voice rose from the back seat, laced with obvious concern.
Ye Zhichen’s movements suddenly halted, and her face stiffened for a moment.
She could feel several gazes falling on her simultaneously.
Her expression increasingly failed to hide her discomfort, and she turned her head slowly, her whole body stiff, with an unnatural smile on her face.
Fortunately, it was nighttime, and only the dim light from the street lamps shone inside the car.
As she was now turned toward the backseat, her face was against the light, making it even harder to see her expression.
“It’s nothing, I probably just ate too much, and my stomach is a bit stretched.”
Su Ran breathed a sigh of relief, but couldn’t help finding it funny hearing Ye Zhichen’s words.
How can someone still not judge their own limits when eating, at her age?
“Does it hurt a lot? Would you like to buy some digestive tablets?”
Ye Zhichen shook her head.
“No need, it’s not a big deal, and it will pass soon!”
How could she say that she had simply drunk too much and now needed to use the restroom?
Initially, she had drunk extra water out of anger due to Fu Qiyuan, and later, when the manager of First-Class Fragrance brought in two bottles of excellent wine that was both fragrant and strong, she couldn’t help but drink a couple more glasses.
She wasn’t drunk, but her stomach, on the other hand, was struggling to hold it in!
Such an embarrassing situation was better endured in silence!
After getting out of the car, Fu Qiyuan walked ahead holding hands with Su Ran, with Ye Zhichen trailing behind alone.
She glanced at the two figures ahead, one tall and one short, and sighed inwardly.
Why had she impulsively agreed to come?
She had seen people forcefully fed dog food, but never someone who delivered themselves to the doorstep for it.
Outside the private room.
Ye Zhichen’s eyes landed on the sign for the public restroom in the corridor.
She didn’t know Fu Qiyuan’s friends and felt that heading straight for the restroom upon entering seemed impolite, so after thinking for a moment,
“Xiao Ran, I’m going to use the restroom.”
As she spoke, Su Ran tried to pull her hand away from Fu Qiyuan’s.
But Fu Qiyuan didn’t show any sign of letting go. Instead, he embraced Su Ran tightly, confining her in his arms.
“Let her go by herself.”
Fu Qiyuan glanced briefly at Ye Zhichen with eyes that couldn’t hide his disdain.
It was the first time she had ever been looked at with such a disdainful and superfluous gaze.
She took a deep breath, trying hard to calm her emotions, and managed to pull a stiff smile onto her beautiful face.
She smiled at Su Ran, but her voice was a bit forced, and Su Ran could even hear her grinding her teeth.
“It’s okay, Xiao Ran. I can go by myself!”
Su Ran was well aware of the brief and peculiar tension that had just passed and looked rather helpless.
“Then, do you know where the private room is?”
Ye Zhichen waved her hand and started walking towards the restroom, her voice following.
Not until Ye Zhichen’s figure had completely disappeared did Su Ran look up at the man beside her and let out a tired sigh.
“Can’t you and Zhichen get along peacefully?”
“When have I not been peaceful?” Fu Qiyuan raised an eyebrow and said indifferently.
