My Aloof Husband Can't Stop His Devoted Affection-Chapter 433 - 021: Sweet Sweet_2
Yun Xi didn’t hear clearly what she said, so she shook her head and asked: "Huh? Ling Ran, what did you just say? It was too quiet, I didn’t hear it."
"It’s nothing." Ye Lingran smiled faintly and shook her head: "Today, you can vent however you want! I won’t stop you, as long as you feel comfortable, I’ll definitely stick with you till the end today."
"Really?"
"Yeah, really."
"Ling Ran... boohoo... you’re so good, if you were a man, I’d definitely marry you."
"..."
Ye Lingran’s mouth twitched slightly, watching her suddenly burst into tears, and other customers at the tables also began looking over. Ye Lingran quickly nodded to them, saying: "Sorry, excuse us!" After speaking, she looked at Yun Xi: "Don’t cry!"
"But I just feel like crying right now."
"Alright, alright, look at you, you’re so pretty, you have a good family background, a decent career, do you still worry about no one pursuing you? Crying over Lu Xize who doesn’t like you is not worth it, you might hurt your eyes, would he feel sorry for you? Stop crying, listen, you still have us, right?" Ye Lingran hurriedly handed her two tissues, comforting her softly: "Look, you ordered so many dishes, but haven’t started eating, what a waste! Don’t you usually love to eat? Let’s not cry, let’s vent by eating, okay? You can eat whatever you want today, I’ll pay, my treat, satisfying all your needs."
"Really?"
"Of course."
"Will you ask my brother to reimburse you then?"
Ye Lingran laughed: "Does your appetite really have the ability to make me go broke? Reimburse you? No need, I can afford to let you eat."
"Ling Ran, love ya, should I start calling you sister-in-law then?"
Ye Lingran paused again: "You can call me whatever you want! But, your brother and I... are just dating now, calling me sister-in-law feels a bit strange, better stick to calling me by my name!"
"True, I’m used to calling you Ling Ran, suddenly changing to sister-in-law does feel odd, but... I’ll probably have to change sooner or later." Yun Xi said casually while sipping beer: "Sigh, did I destroy the galaxy in my past life or something? Why is my love life so rocky? Why is it so hard to find romance?"
"You’re only 25 this year, it’s just the beginning, calling it difficult now is premature, the road ahead is long, no need to be so pessimistic!" Ye Lingran continued calming her emotions throughout, her words light and her attitude gentle.
But sometimes Yun Xi is stubborn like this, loved getting into a dead end, maybe she cared too deeply about this relationship, got hurt by Lu Xize, no matter how Ye Lingran consoled her, she couldn’t get over it. In the end, Ye Lingran stopped talking, just quietly accompanied her, listened to her venting and ranting. Watching her drink one cup after another, it hurt to see, though she persuaded all night, Yun Xi hadn’t drunk any less.
With a dinner starting at half past six, the two ate until past nine and were still not done, most of the dishes almost untouched, but Yun Xi kept refilling countless cups of booze, her face was already flushed with clear inebriation, yet she was still unwilling to stop.
With everyone in the restaurant gone, only their table remaining, the restaurant almost ready to close, Ye Lingran watched Yun Xi drunkenly babbling, sighed silently, and waved for the waiter: "Waiter, bill please!"
"Sure, your table’s total is seven hundred seventy yuan, here’s the bill, please have a look, I didn’t charge for the last two beers, they’re complimentary." The waiter came over with a slight smile, handing her the bill.
Ye Lingran took it, glanced briefly, then took out her phone to scan the code on the bill, after successful payment, deliberately showed the waiter: "Thank you."
"You’re welcome, hope to see you again." The waiter smiled, looking at a nearby Yun Xi: "Is this... lady alright?"
"She’s fine, just drunk." Ye Lingran smiled faintly, shaking her head, put her phone in her bag, stood up in front of Yun Xi, slung her bag over her shoulder, and prepared to help her up from the chair: "Yun Xi, let’s go! I’ll take you home."
"Need help?" The waiter, seeing her struggling, instinctively reached out to assist.
"Thank you." With the waiter’s help, Ye Lingran found it much easier, smiled slightly at her, after leaving the restaurant, Ye Lingran said: "Thank you, I’ll manage from here."
