Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 718 - 680: A Son of the Zhan Family Comes of Age
Zhan Yunxiao waited for You Mei to finish ordering the dishes before leaving the restaurant.
You Mei didn’t try to keep him.
She looked at the photo of the two of them on her phone, curved her lips into a smile, and saved the picture to her email.
Zhan Yunxiao returned home to find Xia Luo eating instant noodles.
"Why are you eating this?"
Zhan Yunxiao frowned.
Xia Luo was surprised: "Why are you back so soon?"
"It’s not important, so I came back early. Good thing I did, otherwise I wouldn’t have seen you eating this junk food."
Zhan Yunxiao sternly threw the instant noodles into the kitchen trash can.
But when he came out of the kitchen again, he was carrying a food box.
Xia Luo opened the food box with delight. Inside were three exquisite dishes and a soup, along with two small bowls of rice.
"You didn’t eat either?" Xia Luo was surprised.
He said he had a dinner appointment, so she thought he had already eaten.
"I ordered dishes but didn’t eat, wanted to have dinner with you."
Zhan Yunxiao looked at her warmly.
Xia Luo pursed her lips, suddenly stood up, moved close to him, and gave his cheek a quick kiss.
Being kissed, Zhan Yunxiao showed a surprised and delighted expression.
He touched his face, his ears slightly red.
"Thank you for remembering me."
Xia Luo apologized with a flushed face.
Zhan Yunxiao, however, sternly said, "No need to thank me in the future."
"Why?" Xia Luo asked.
Zhan Yunxiao: "Because I am your man, and my kindness to you is only natural. You just need to accept it, no need to thank me."
"But don’t couples need to be grateful?" Xia Luo frowned and asked.
Nobody had ever taught her these things.
If it were before, she wouldn’t have thought of thanking anyone.
Back then, she was full of hostility and didn’t know what gratitude was.
But now, Ye Ningwan taught her tolerance, Zhan Yunxiao taught her love.
She wanted to be a normal girl, kind-hearted, and grateful.
The relationship between people should be like that, right?
And it’s no exception for couples.
But now, Zhan Yunxiao told her that there’s no need to say thank you between couples.
His words left her bewildered again.
"Of course, there’s no need."
Zhan Yunxiao held one of her hands, gently caressing it, and said in a sentimental tone, "Between a couple, there’s no debt of gratitude, only love. I’m good to you out of my own heart, it’s something I’m willing to do, it has nothing to do with you. You don’t need to be grateful, just repay me with the same love, and I would be very happy."
"Okay, I understand." Xia Luo nodded.
She quickly took the dishes out of the food box.
The two of them chatted while eating.
After dinner, Zhan Yunxiao told Xia Luo to leave the tableware there, no need to tidy up.
The cleaning lady coming tomorrow would naturally take care of it.
Xia Luo suddenly remembered the dress she bought and quickly told him, "I bought a dress today, let me try it on for you to see if it fits."
"You went shopping by yourself?" Zhan Yunxiao was surprised.
Xia Luo tilted her head and said, "Why, don’t you trust my taste? I had a friend with a great eye help me choose it."
"No, I just thought if it was troublesome for you, you could have told me, and I’d let Yan Yu prepare it." Zhan Yunxiao said, wrapping his arm around her waist.
Xia Luo said, "But there will be many occasions where I’ll attend parties with you in the future. I must learn to dress myself and not rely on you for everything."
"It’s okay if you rely on me for everything, I’m willing to."
Zhan Yunxiao lowered his head and kissed her forehead.
He was speaking from the heart, with no pretense.
If Xia Luo were willing to rely on him for everything, he didn’t know how happy he would be.
"Even if you’re willing, I don’t want to be a woman who only clings to you." Xia Luo argued.
"Alright, as you wish. Go change into the dress, and let me see how you look."
Zhan Yunxiao felt a little disappointed, but this was the real Xia Luo.
So, even if he felt disappointed, he was willing to accept it.
To avoid any unpleasantness, he had to quickly change the topic.
Sure enough, as soon as he suggested it, Xia Luo forgot the topic and immediately ran upstairs.
Soon, Xia Luo came down from upstairs, wearing the pink little dress she bought with You Mei.
In fact, when Xia Luo appeared in that dress, Zhan Yunxiao was momentarily surprised.
This dress looked very similar to the one You Mei was wearing.
Just the color was different.
How did the two of them end up choosing the same style of dress?
"What’s wrong? Doesn’t it look good?"
Xia Luo noticed Zhan Yunxiao’s expression; there was no surprise or joy, only shock.
She couldn’t help feeling disappointed and asked dejectedly.
Zhan Yunxiao snapped back, immediately shaking his head, "Of course not, it looks great. My Luoluo is beautiful, so no matter what you wear, it looks good."
"Then why did you look surprised just now?" Xia Luo pressed.
"I saw a girl on the road today, wearing a dress like yours, so I was surprised."
Zhan Yunxiao was caught off guard by Xia Luo’s question and didn’t know how to lie, so he answered truthfully.
However, he didn’t tell the whole truth.
He didn’t want Xia Luo to know about You Mei’s existence.
Not because he was afraid Xia Luo would be jealous, but just didn’t want Xia Luo to know that the ideas for romantic gestures came from You Mei’s help. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
If Xia Luo found out, she might be upset that he wasn’t being sincere.
"A girl in a dress like mine? What color was she wearing?" Xia Luo asked.
"It seemed to be green," Zhan Yunxiao answered.
Xia Luo didn’t expect it to actually be You Mei.
You Mei had bought that green dress as well to meet a guy she liked, but hadn’t expected Zhan Yunxiao to see her.
However, Zhan Yunxiao wasn’t someone who usually noticed what other girls wore.
Xia Luo looked at him suspiciously, "How did you notice what dress another girl was wearing? That’s unlike you."
"I..."
Zhan Yunxiao thought to himself that he was in trouble, having forgotten about this. How should he explain?
"Was it because she was brought by your friend, so you looked a couple of times more?" Xia Luo blurted out.
Zhan Yunxiao didn’t expect Xia Luo to provide him with a reason.
He immediately nodded, "Yes, that’s it, brought by my friend, so I looked a couple of times more."
"How about your friend? How does he look? His character? Got any photos I can see?" Xia Luo asked with excitement.
Zhan Yunxiao: "..."
What was going on?
Why was she interested in his friend?
"Why aren’t you speaking? Why aren’t you happy?"
Xia Luo saw him not responding and asked pouting.
Zhan Yunxiao put on a stern face, wrapped his arm around her waist, and said, "Of course, I’m unhappy if you’re asking about other men."
"What a petty guy, I didn’t mean anything by it, just asking," Xia Luo said with a laugh.
Zhan Yunxiao: "Even if you’re just asking, it’s not allowed. However, I can tell you, my friend isn’t as handsome as I am, and that girl isn’t as good as you. So, stop thinking about them, think more of me, look at me, I’m the most important person to you."
Saying this, he lowered his head and kissed her lips.
