The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 194: Quite Cute
Chapter 194: Chapter 194: Quite Cute
Ye Chenfeng couldn’t help but squeeze Yao Suman’s hand a bit tighter.
By the time the two walked hand in hand to the spicy hot pot stall, Ye Chenfeng could clearly feel that Yao Suman’s palm was oozing a fine layer of sweat.
It was only now that Ye Chenfeng realized that holding Yao Suman’s hand might be inappropriate. After all, they were not in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, nor could they even be considered friends. In the past, Yao Suman would look at him as if she were seeing an enemy.
In front of the stall were four or five scattered tables and chairs. Ye Chenfeng released her hand, picked up the napkins on the table, and first wiped Yao Suman’s chair, which was not very clean, then wiped the table. He then naturally revealed a clean smile and said, "Now it’s clean, sit down!"
Ye Chenfeng’s acting skills were still quite impressive, easily defusing the awkward situation.
Yao Suman’s cheeks were faintly blushing, touched by this small gesture from Ye Chenfeng as if a calm lake’s surface was disturbed by a thrown pebble, creating ripples upon ripples.
Women are often moved by details, and Yao Suman was no exception.
"Never thought he was so attentive," Yao Suman muttered to herself inside.
"Boss, two bowls of spicy hot pot," Ye Chenfeng called out to the middle-aged stall owner behind the stand.
"Alrighty! Just a moment, coming right up," the middle-aged owner cheerfully replied.
About five to six minutes later, the middle-aged owner brought over two large bowls of spicy hot pot to Ye Chenfeng and Yao Suman’s table, and said to Ye Chenfeng, "Young man, your girlfriend is quite pretty! Seeing as you have such a beautiful girlfriend, I made sure to give you extra portions with these two bowls!"
After speaking, the middle-aged owner did not wait for Ye Chenfeng and Yao Suman to argue and went back behind the stall.
Yao Suman looked at the steaming spicy hot pot in front of her, pursed her lips, wanting to say something. But Ye Chenfeng’s voice had already reached her ears, "Eat! What are you spacing out for?"
Seeing the straightforward expression on Ye Chenfeng’s face, Yao Suman cursed inwardly, "Yao Suman, what nonsense are you thinking? It was the boss joking just now. Ye Chenfeng doesn’t mind it, so why do you need to explain anything? Isn’t explaining too much just like trying to cover something up?"
Yao Suman bowed her head and began eating her spicy hot pot. However, her beautiful eyes occasionally glanced at Ye Chenfeng, who was sitting opposite her. He ate in big bites, continuously making noises with his mouth, showing no elegance whatsoever.
But in Yao Suman’s eyes, such a man seemed quite genuine, and a faint smile emerged on her lips.
In the cold winter, eating a bowl of spicy hot pot on the street felt very atmospheric. The sour and spicy taste spread across the taste buds, and after eating an entire large bowl, one’s whole body felt warm and very comfortable.
The two bowls of spicy hot pot only cost Yao Suman twenty yuan. Looking at Ye Chenfeng walking beside her, she thanked him once again. She knew that Ye Chenfeng had intentionally chosen to eat spicy hot pot because it was very cheap, and her family was in a severe financial predicament right now.
"You’ve said ’thank you’ twice today. Actually, I still prefer the feisty you before; this current version of you is somewhat unfamiliar to me," Ye Chenfeng shrugged and said.
Yao Suman was momentarily startled and with her cheeks slightly red, she said, "Wasn’t my terrible attitude toward you because of what you did three years ago..." Yao Suman bit her red lips lightly.
"I’ve told you many times that the incident three years ago was a misunderstanding. I didn’t mean to barge into the women’s changing room," Ye Chenfeng said with an open and honest face.
Yao Suman clenched her teeth, "And the last time in the interrogation room was also a misunderstanding?
"Last time, it seems you were the one trying to use corporal punishment on me in the interrogation room, weren’t you? I did it out of necessity," Ye Chenfeng replied with seemingly genuine seriousness. freewёbnoνel-com
Yao Suman caught Ye Chenfeng sneakily glancing at her butt and felt a mix of shame and anger inside, "Anyway, no matter what, you’re always right. Is that okay now?" After saying that, Yao Suman increased her pace and walked ahead.
Her tone of voice sounded like a young wife coyly arguing with her husband.
A moment later, Ye Chenfeng sighed and shook his head, thinking, "Women are the root of trouble! I haven’t even solved the issue with Wanting yet. Better not think too much about it."
Not far ahead by the roadside was a sizable lake. Fixed benches had been placed along the lake’s embankment, presumably for citizens to rest and enjoy the lake’s scenery.
Yao Suman sat down on a bench. Since Ye Chenfeng, who originally intended to return to the villa, had no choice but to sit next to her, he couldn’t just leave Yao Suman here alone, could he?
The lake, bathed in the glow of the sunset, seemed covered in shattered silver, the light shimmering and sparkling on its surface.
It aptly illustrated the phrase, "The sunset is endlessly beautiful, but it heralds the coming night."
Yao Suman’s beautiful eyes followed the lake to the opposite shore, her face showing signs of exhaustion. These past days, taking care of her seriously ill mother, Yao Lianrong, had truly worn her out, so much so that even her daily sleep wasn’t sufficient.
Her eyelids started to fight each other involuntarily, and after three or four minutes, her head tilted, and Yao Suman ended up leaning on Ye Chenfeng’s shoulder, fast asleep.
Waves of fragrance wafted into Ye Chenfeng’s nose, and Yao Suman’s hair floated against his cheeks, tickling him.
Looking down at the sleeping Yao Suman, an inexplicable pain flared in Ye Chenfeng’s heart. Yao Suman, this violent policewoman, was truly tired; after all, she was only a woman, not made of iron.
Occasionally, a cool breeze would blow by, causing Yao Suman’s body to press tightly against Ye Chenfeng’s side.
"Ah~ I might as well be a complete gentleman! Sleeping here will result in a cold."
Ye Chenfeng stretched out his hand and pulled Yao Suman into his embrace. Initially, his thoughts were pure. He didn’t have any other ideas about Yao Suman; he simply didn’t want to see her catch a cold.
A while later.
Ye Chenfeng decided he shouldn’t hold onto Yao Suman any longer. If he continued like this, he really feared he wouldn’t be able to control himself! But just as he was about to move his arm away, Yao Suman’s body shifted, and an accident happened once again.
Ye Chenfeng’s right hand touched a place it shouldn’t have, which made his heart race. He and Yao Suman had just resolved a misunderstanding not too long ago, and he didn’t want to be misunderstood again.
It was truly an accident!
Ye Chenfeng glanced at Yao Suman, thankful that she hadn’t woken up from her sleep; otherwise, he would have jumped into the Yellow River and still not be able to clear himself.
"Phew~"
He exhaled deeply from his throat, just about to stop holding onto Yao Suman.
"Hmm~" However, at that moment, Yao Suman suddenly opened her eyes, her cheeks flushed with red, and said to Ye Chenfeng, "Can you move your arm away now?"
Ye Chenfeng touched his nose awkwardly and said, "Just now was purely accidental. I saw you were asleep and didn’t want you to get cold, so I held you. There wasn’t the slightest ill intention."
Yao Suman sat up from Ye Chenfeng’s arms, bit her lip, and complained coquettishly, "It could be called an accident at first, but why didn’t you move your hand away immediately? I think you are just..." Yao Suman, her face red, couldn’t finish her sentence.
Actually, when Ye Chenfeng pulled her into his embrace, Yao Suman had woken up, but for some reason, she didn’t immediately open her eyes or speak up to stop him; she just let Ye Chenfeng hold her.
"It’s getting late, right? Let’s go back and rest," Ye Chenfeng quickly changed the subject.
But when Ye Chenfeng saw Yao Suman staring at him with cold eyes, he awkwardly said from his throat, "Just now, just now I couldn’t resist for a moment. How about you touch me? Consider it even."
"Giggle" Seeing Ye Chenfeng’s awkward attempt at explaining, Yao Suman laughed softly in her throat, her hand gently straightening the hair that the wind had tousled, and said, "Only once, and not again. And from now on, call me Sister Suman. You are not allowed to do such things to your sister again, or your sister here won’t let you off."
Yao Suman pointed at Ye Chenfeng’s forehead, and for some reason, she couldn’t bring herself to be angry. Instead, seeing Ye Chenfeng’s awkward explanations, she felt a strong sense of achievement.
Ye Chenfeng, seeing Yao Suman regain some of her feisty nature, obediently called out, "Sister Suman."
After all, it was he who had inadvertently taken advantage of Yao Suman; calling her "sister" didn’t seem to be a loss!
Actually, Yao Suman was quite a cute woman! (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, please visit qidian.com to cast your votes of recommendation and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please go to m.qidian.com to continue reading.)
