Battered Young Miss

Chapter 174

They were shown to their table by a line of both male and female attendants, no sooner had they taken a seat did the plates and wine bottles began appearing at their table.

"Chairman Duan, are we the only ones eating here? Or did we come in when the restaurant is about to close?"

Duan Chengyu saw the way her eyes steadfastly looked at him, as though he had the key to everything.

"The restaurant is ours for the whole night."

"Are you crazy?!!"

The words flew out of Liu Rachael"s mouth, as she stared at her boss as if he was really insane.

"Miss Liu you just called me crazy."

When she heard Duan Chengyu remind her of what she said, that instantly sent the feeling of guilt to her heart.

"I"m sorry Chairman Duan, for speaking out of turn."

"It"s okay, I promise not to hold it against you."

"..."

Despite hearing him tell her that he would let bygones be bygones, that didn"t stop Liu Rachael from looking at her boss with an eye of caution.

"Let"s eat, the food would soon get cold."Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.

Just like that, the two dug into their food in silence, but something made Duan Chengyu pause while eating, he saw the sauce from the steak on the lips of Liu Rachael. Rather than calling her attention to the stain on her lips, he chose to reach across the table to wipe it off with his thumb. He saw the look of fear in her eyes, as if she wanted to run out of the restaurant.

"You have sauce on your mouth, I was only helping you to clean it."

"..."

To make his date at ease, Duan Chengyu decided to divert her attention by talking about something that would make their night more interesting.

"Miss Liu would you like to watch a movie?"

"If I say I don"t want to go, he"ll find something else to make me go anyways. I guess I just have to let him know that I"ll go with him."

Looking straight into her boss"s eyes even though it made her stomach quiver, "I"ll go with you to the movies."

"Where will you like to go, do you want drive through movie or indoor movie."

There was barely any change in the expression of Duan Chengyu while looking at Liu Rachael whose beauty made it difficult to focus on food laid out in front of him. The two talked for a while, before setting out for home.

On getting outside, Liu Rachael heard her phone ring, only to see it was the number of her boyfriend.

"I"m sorry, but I have to take this call."

"Can I know who is calling you?"

Duan Chengyu saw her hesitate, he felt himself tense up, as guessed it was likely her ex-boyfriend that was calling.

"It"s ..."

When she told him the name of her caller, Duan Chengyu had to hold himself back from rus.h.i.+ng over to take the phone from her hand and smash it on the ground. He didn"t want her to speak to the guy and he knew the name for the ugly emotion that was rapidly flooding his mind, it was Jealousy!
