Episode 140

  The quiet atmosphere was suddenly disrupted by a strange and weird sound.

  Yu Lu awkwardly covered her stomach with her hands, she hadn't eaten lunch and was now hungry.

  Ye Xiu smiled brightly and beckoned the servant over.

  "Serve the dish."

  The waiter was taken aback by the man's charming smile.

  "Yes, Mr. Night."

  The restaurant is very efficient and all dishes were served within a few minutes.

  Yu Luo sat in front of the dinner table, looking at the dishes on the plate with a puzzled expression, and couldn't help but frown.

  Papaya stewed with pork ribs, crucian carp in soup, winter melon chicken soup, spinach stir-fried with pig liver, red dates and mushrooms...

  The dishes were varied and abundant, but they were all things she particularly disliked eating, especially pig's liver.

  "Aren't you hungry? Why aren't you eating?"

  Yu Luo picked up her chopsticks, picked up a piece of papaya, put it in her mouth and took a bite. Suddenly, the five features on her small face twisted together.

  She put the remaining half back into the bowl, at this time, Ye Xiuchen picked up a large piece of pork liver and put it in her bowl.

  "Lolo, eat some more."

  It seemed that they had seen that these dishes did not suit Yu Luo's taste, and a nearby servant hastily explained.

  "Miss, this is a special nourishing meal prepared by the chef of this restaurant, which is very beneficial to the body, especially for girls——"

  "This doesn't concern you anymore, go down."

  The waiter wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Ye Xiuchen.

  If Yu Luo didn't understand at first, then looking at Ye Xiuchen coldly interrupting the servant's words, a warm current suddenly flowed through her heart. How did she not notice that these dishes were all foods she disliked eating, yet they were all blood-nourishing foods without exception.

  "Brother, was this specially prepared by the chef?"

  Ye Xiu turned his head and gazed out of the floor-to-ceiling window at a vast expanse of azure sea.

  "Just a coincidence."

  Yu Lu pursed his lips and didn't acknowledge it, just like how he had saved her but never mentioned it before. Yet at this moment, she stubbornly wanted to stick to her own answer.

  "Thanks, bro."

  She lowered her head, and those unpalatable things seemed to become delicious in an instant.

  Ye Xiu turned his head, quietly watching the girl in front of him with a mouthful of oil. He opened his mouth, but ultimately didn't tell her that this restaurant doesn't serve Chinese food at all. The chef was a overseas Chinese whom he had specially invited, who was very knowledgeable about health preservation. If she liked to eat, he would hire this chef as the exclusive chef for Ye Manor.

  "Have you eaten?"

  "Uh-huh."

  Yu Luo nodded.

  "Then let's go."

  Ye Xiu got up and walked out, Yu Luo hastily stood up and followed behind him.

  "Get on the bus."

  Mo Si wasn't there, today it was Ye Xun himself driving. Yu Luo hesitated about sitting in the back seat, but he opened the passenger door from inside and she had no choice but to sit beside him.

  All the way, speechless.

  It was already late in the evening, and it had darkened outside the car window. However, Yu Luo soon discovered that the direction the car was heading was not towards Ye Manor.

  "Shall we go back?"

  Ye Xiu didn't turn his head back and lightly responded with a "hm".

  "Where are you going?"

  He didn't respond to her words because they had already arrived at their destination.

  Yu Lu stared blankly at the long queue in front of her, Ye Xiuzhen had already walked ahead, finally seeing that she hadn't caught up, turned back to look at her.

  "What's wrong?"

  Yu Luo pointed at the entrance beside the team.

  "Brother, this is a movie theater."

  "I know."

  "After some thought, he added another sentence: 'Don't you like it?'"

  Yu Luo hastily shook his head, not because he didn't like it, but because he liked it very much. In the past when he had just entered university, he would often save money to watch his favorite movies with Xiao Xue, even if it meant skipping meals. It's just that those were things of the distant past.

  Ye Xiu seemed to let out a sigh of relief and continued walking forward, with Yu Luo following closely behind.

  "I want two 8 o'clock movie tickets."

  The ticket seller was a middle-aged uncle who looked up and saw the tall and large man almost blocking half of the window, somewhat displeased.

  "Do you know if we need to line up to buy tickets?"

  Ye Xiuren furrowed his brow, but the hand that was holding onto Qian's didn't pull back.

  The people queuing next to them started whispering, many of whom were couples who came together. When the girls saw Ye Xiu, the peach blossoms in their eyes made their boyfriends resentful and angry, shouting angrily.

  "You need to queue up to watch a movie, don't you know?"

  Yu Luo hurried forward, pulled at Ye Xiu's sleeve, and saw that his long fingers were clenched into fists, his jaw was tense, and it was clear that he was about to get angry.

  She thought he would get angry and leave immediately, but she never expected that he would turn around, hold her hand tightly.

  "You go rest on the side, I'll go buy tickets."

  A man in a tailored suit, the young master of the Ye family, the CEO of the Ye International conglomerate, was standing at the back of the long queue, holding a RMB note, quietly waiting to buy tickets.

  The scene was too unrealistic, so Yu Luo thought it was a dream. She couldn't help but pinch her own arm, and it hurt, proving that it wasn't a dream.

  The queue was very long and by the time it was Night's turn at the window, nearly an hour had passed.

  "Two 8 o'clock movie tickets."

  The handsome man handed over the money again, and the ticket seller was still that uncle, who glanced at him with his eyes.

  "It's sold out."

  "What did you say?"

  The man's suppressed anger surged in his dark eyes, the RMB note was twisted in his hand, and the other hand passed through the window, grasping Uncle's collar, gritting his teeth to ask.

  "It's sold out, didn't you hear?"

  The uncle is neither arrogant nor humble, and he's not afraid of Ye Xiu at all.

  This time, Yu Luo really got anxious and stepped forward, wanting to stop his action.

  "Brother, I don't want to watch anymore, let's go back."

  "No way!"

  Ye Xiu abruptly interrupted her words.

  "Brother, calm down, let's watch the next game, okay?"

  Ye Xiu's face finally looked a bit better, and with a flick of his hand, Uncle's body returned to its original position.

  "Hmm." The uncle hummed softly, suddenly shook his pocket, and pulled out two tickets from inside, smiling as he handed them to Yu Luo.

  "This lovely young lady, these two tickets were originally meant for me and my wife to watch together, now I'm giving them to you."

  Yu Lu was taken aback, then excitedly took over the ticket.

  "Thank you, thank you."

  The uncle waved his hand and finally rolled his eyes at Ye Xuan.

  "Miss, hurry up and dump him, with such a bad temper, he must be rough on his girlfriend."

  Yu Lu's smile at the corner of her mouth gradually stiffened, and a chill rose from behind her. Ye Xiuzhen's face was already as dark as coal, and he suddenly pulled her hand away without saying another word, leaving the ticket window.
