Chapter 175: Untitled

“Young Master! Young Master! People are breaking into the manor.” A maid came hurrying over to report this news to Bo Jinyan.

His eyes narrowed into thin slits as he shot a glance at his friend before telling the maid, “Leave.”

“Yes, sir.”

“And get Ruoruo here for dinner.”

“Y-Yes, sir.”

He then conscientiously placed the dishes he had prepared on the dining table, hoping that the spread of food would suit the woman's fancy.

“That man is really here this time,” he remarked as he poured a cup of hot water and placed it in front of Ye Erruo's spot.

Yu Lingfeng stayed silent, feeling nothing but antipathy for that man, who could not even ensure his wife's safety.

So what if he's come?

Moments later, Ye Erruo walked into the dining room while saying, “I see that the rain has lightened up a lot, so I'll be able to head home today.”

“Come and eat. I'll take you home after you're done with your meal,” replied Bo Jinyan with a smile.

“Okay!” Her spirits instantly lifted when she heard that she would finally be able to head home.

“I didn't know what you like to eat, so I just prepared a few simple dishes. Do you think you're okay with this spread of food?”

The woman shot a look of surprise in his direction. “You cooked all this stuff?”

“Take a seat.” The man then proceeded to pull out the chair for her like a gentleman.

“Thank you.”

“Jinyan can cook up some mean dishes, though he hardly does it readily,” Yu Lingfeng commented meaningfully.

Ye Erruo shot Bo Jinyan a glance, finding it hard to believe that a pampered young master like him could actually cook.

“Try the prawns. That's Jinyan's specialty.”

The woman coughed again.

“The prawns are for you. She can't eat seafood while she's having a cough,” said Bo Jinyan.

The woman's face sank in disappointment and pity when her gaze landed on the plate of prawns. Prawns were her favorite food.

“I know you like eating prawns. I'll cook them for you when the chance arises after you've recovered,” he added with a smile.

“Ruoruo likes eating prawns too?” Yu Lingfeng bit his lip as he tenderly gazed at her in delight.

“Yeah. Like you, she loves eating crustaceans.”

In fact, our first encounter was at a lobster shop!

While peeling a prawn, he meaningfully added, “This is fate! My family loves eating prawns too.”

She ignored him and sarcastically retorted, “Tsk… What kind of fate is that when so many people in this world like eating prawns?”

What a joke. It's purely coincidental that we like eating prawns. How is that fate? In that case, everyone who likes eating prawns should share the same fate with him as well.

Yu Lingfeng's lips parted to say something, but on second thought, he swallowed back the words into his stomach.

While she was sitting at the dining table, Ye Erruo could only settle for looking for tiny shrimp in other dishes, as she could not eat prawns in her current state. It was unknown how Bo Jinyan had prepared this prawn dish, but the whole table was filled with the lingering, delicious fragrance of that plate of prawns.

Things had descended into a state of chaos outside the manor while the trio had their meal in the house. The woman only thought about returning home as soon as possible after she had her fill, so she wolfed down the food very quickly.

Bang!

The dining room doors were kicked wide open suddenly and an egomaniacal Mo Jiangye entered.

“Sir! Sir, you're not allowed to enter.” The bodyguards and the servants moved to block him from walking in any further.

However, a familiar face had entered his line of vision as soon as he'd stepped past the doors. He faltered a little as he stood dumbly on the spot and stared at that person.

“Mo Jiangye?” cried Ye Erruo, who felt even more surprised and incredulous to see him there.

Tossing the chopsticks in her hand away, she ran toward him in delight and jumped into his embrace. “Why are you back so early?”

He staggered a couple of steps backward from the impact while holding her tightly and steadily. It was only several seconds later that he came back to his senses and pulled a long face at her. “Are you keeping gigolos outside now?”
