Ye Youyou’s words were stuck in her throat. She was unable to form a reb.u.t.tal. She looked at Ye Qianqian, but she was no match for the emotional blackmail.
When she emerged from the room after changing, the whole sitting room was filled with the smell of cigarette smoke.
Li Jinnan stood tall and straight. He was dressed simply, but his mannerisms were irrefutably imposing.
The found an eatery nearby. Ye Qianqian ordered a few random dishes before leaving the rest up to Li Jinnan.
In truth, he had just finished his dinner not long before and wasn’t hungry at all. He relied on his memory to order a few dishes that were possibly her favorite and returned the menu.
Ye Youyou sat at the side very earnestly and asked, “GM Li, is there a reason you’re looking for me so late at night?”
“Yeah. My friend is getting married the day after tomorrow. Come with me.” Li Jinnan tapped his fingers on the table. “Come as my plus one.”
“Hey, the friend you’re talking about isn’t Ou Ming, is it?” Ye Qianqian spoke up. “I was supposed to go to as well. But it seems Lili asked Shen Luo’an’s sister, the one called Manting, to be her bridesmaid. Would it be appropriate for Youyou to be your plus one?”
Li Jinnan wiggled his brows and commented, “Is that so?”
“Yeah!”
“It doesn’t matter. Just come. Besides, I’m just going to join in the fun at Ou Ming’s wedding and add to their numbers.” Li Jinnan took a sip of tea before slowly remarking, “After your divorce, we’ll get our chance to be the main stars.”
Ye Youyou was caught off-guard by this surprising remark. She cleared her throat gently. With a guilty conscience, she stole a glance at Ye Qianqian. It was obvious from Ye Qianqian eyes that she was eager to hear more of the juicy details.
To cover her embarra.s.sment, Ye Youyou picked up at cup of tea and took her time drinking it before replying, “Alright. When your wedding comes, I’ll be there.”
Ye Youyou couldn’t have made her intentions any clearer. She was clearly trying to distance herself from Li Jinnan in Ye Qianqian’s presence.
Li Jinnan acted as if he hadn’t understood it. With a nod of his head, he responded, “Yeah. I heard that Ou Ming prepared three different wedding gowns for his wife. I’ll prepare four for you. We can’t lose out to them.”
Ye Youyou almost choked on her tea. The liquid went down the wrong pipe and came back out vehemently. Perhaps it was from the choking, or perhaps it wasn’t, but her face turned bright red.Read more chapter on vipnovel.com
Li Jinnan’s eyebrows rose slightly. He reached out to pat Ye Youyou on her back. “Why are you so careless? Are you having trouble drinking?”
Ye Youyou’s coughing grew even more violent. She reached out to swat his hand away and shook her head.
Ye Qianqian deliberately kept her eyes averted and pretended that she couldn’t see and hear a thing. She took a sip of tea and savored it before commenting, “The tea here isn’t too bad.”
Li Jinnan was in a good mood and played along with her. “It’s good enough.”
The waiter came by and served up a plate of crispy fried meat fillets and laid the dish on the Lazy Susan. Ye Youyou was glad for this distraction. She immediately picked her chopsticks up and placed a piece into her mouth. As she chewed her food, she no longer had to engage in conversation.
Li Jinnan acted as if he suddenly thought of something and asked, “What do you think?”
Ye Youyou continued eating, pretending she hadn’t heard him. Her face was practically buried inside her rice bowl.
When Li Jinnan saw how she was behaving, his lips couldn’t resist turning up in a smile. He acted as if hadn’t noticed anything and remarked earnestly, “If that’s not enough, we can add more.”
“GM Li,” Ye Youyou was at the end of her limit. She cut Li Jinnan off and in a tone that sounded hard and firm. “I’m hungry.”
“Alright.” Li Jinnan placed a few pieces of meat on Ye Youyou’s plate and replied, “Eat up.”
