By the time Ye Yan arrived at the restaurant, Zhao Youlin had already left. He went to the table that Ling Ran told him about, only to find the table empty. All that was left was a few dishes served.
Just then, the servants inside the restaurant were stuck after eating after Mu Tingfeng left her gold card to them. They discussed the incident hastily and did not even realize there was another man at the table.
Looking at the dish that had not been taken, he thought Zhao Youlin had left temporarily due to some trouble, he sat down on Ling Ran's chair, and waited for her to return patiently.
As time went on, Ye Yan grew more and more anxious.
Finally, Ye Yan could no longer hold back. He ran to the counter and asked the officer about the whole situation. Suddenly, the silhouette of a stranger overshadowed him.
Ye Yan was overjoyed when he thought Zhao Youlin had returned, only to realize the person in front of him was not Zhao Youlin when he looked up.
Ye Yan clearly looked so disappointed that Su He could not pretend not to see her even if he wanted to. A trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes. Soon, he continued on normally. The corner of his lips curled up, and he asked, pretending not to know anything, "Are you Ling Ran, Mr Ling?"
Ye Yan froze. He remembered that he was sitting on Ling Ran's chair. He pretended to cough awkwardly, and said politely, "Ling Ran is my friend. He had left because of some trouble, and asked me to come. May I know? You ...?"
'The person in front of me couldn't possibly be Ling Ran's blind date, right? How dare that bastard fool me?!'
After hearing this, Su He's eyes twinkled. He sighed, pretended to look relieved, and smiled faintly as he said, "So, I see. I'm sorry to say that I'm Ms.'s secretary. Zhao. Ms. Zhao is Mr. Ling's blind date. He had some urgent business, so he had left. He asked me to come to tell Mr. Ling, but I never thought ... "
As Su He spoke, he was already quietly sitting across from Ye Yan. He continued to smile as he looked at the young man opposite him. At the same time, he covered up the slight attraction in his eyes very well.
"Oh, so it is!" When Ye Yan heard Su He's explanation, he looked disappointed. They refused each other!
After a moment of silence, the disappointment on Ye Yan's face faded. He looked at the person opposite him, and forced a smile, "If so, we should ..."
Before Ye Yan finished speaking, Su He smiled faintly as he cut him off, "Since we're here, why don't we eat together?"
Just then, the attendant who was discussing the topic hurriedly noticed the movement there, he hurriedly came over and said politely, "Master, Miss, do you want to order?"
Ye Yan froze. He looked a little embarrassed, and said, "Sorry, but I have something to ..."
"Can't you handle your stuff later? It's lunchtime. Sir, don't you want to accompany me to eat? Am I disgusting?" At his last harsh words, Su He looked dejected. Her cute face was tangled, one would definitely feel guilty for bullying a child.
Right after Su He spoke, Ye Yan sharply felt a reprimanding gaze from his surroundings. Even the attendant standing beside them looked at him with disdain, akin to saying he was trash, and was bullying a young woman.
Ye Yan felt a chill run down his spine. He froze for a moment before he sighed, and said helplessly, "Alright, then ..."
As soon as Ye Yan agreed to her request, Su He immediately looked overjoyed. Her clear eyes sparkled happily, and the corners of her lips curved upwards. Seeing him in this state, one could really feel his excitement.
"Master, Miss, what's your favorite dish? Mr ... Mr ...?" While Ye Yan was in a daze after seeing Su He's smile, someone had booked him and asked about his favorite.
Ye Yan flinched from a daze when he was summoned several times. By the time she regained consciousness, Su He was so close to her that their noses touched.
He watched her with his big, clear eyes, as if he was caught doing something illegal!
The third young master of the Ye family was known for his gentleness and concern. This was the first time he could not force a smile, and he said with great difficulty, "A-What's wrong ...?"
Su He saw everything. The slight smile in his eyes grew increasingly prominent, "I called out to you many times, but you didn't respond to me. Sir, what do you want to order?"
Su He handed the menu in his hand to Ye Yan as he spoke, then he returned to his seat.
As Su He's face gradually faded from his sight, Ye Yan involuntarily sighed in relief. He took the menu from her and ordered a pork rib dish. Then, he returned the menu to the attendant waiting at the side.
Looking at the additional dishes on the menu, his eyes wrinkled with amusement. After so many years, the taste of that person remained the same. He still likes pork ribs. But ...
After the attendant left, the atmosphere between the two became awkward once again.
Ye Yan threw his face away, pretending to admire the scenery outside. In fact, he judged the girl, who appeared out of nowhere, by the corner of his eyes.
The girl looked so young and adorable, coupled with her big, clear eyes, she looked like she was only fifteen or sixteen years old.
However, she clearly mentioned that she was Zhao Youlin's secretary, in other words, she must have grown up.
'Are you an adult?' Ye Yan frowned. Before he thought about it more deeply, the girl opposite him spoke first.
"By the way, I still don't know what your name is, sir? I don't feel comfortable calling you Sir. We at least shared the same table, and dined together, right?"
Ye Yan froze. He withdrew his gaze and smiled faintly as he said, "Sorry. Hi, I am Ye Yan, spelled Y-E-Y-A-N. It's nice to meet you."
Su He smiled. He looked at Ye Yan, and said weakly, "Hi, Master Ye, I want to introduce myself again. I'm Su He, spelled S-U-H-E. Nice to meet you too."
Su He spoke seriously. The corner of her lips curved upwards and revealed her dimples. He looks much sweeter.
However, when Ye Yan saw this, other than finding the person in front of him looking adorable, he also found it familiar.
"Have we... met before...?" Without thinking twice, he asked that question.
