Chapter 1347 - 1321: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes
Su Wanyi finished eating what was in her bowl and wiped her mouth with a napkin, a satisfied expression on her face.Ye Chen also finished the pancakes on his plate and drained the soup.
There was no choice; since the tripe was all eaten by Su Wanyi, he could only drink the soup.
"Honey, this place is really delicious. I want to come back next time," Su Wanyi said to Ye Chen with a smile.
"Sure, no problem. Whenever you want to come, I’ll bring you," Ye Chen nodded and said.
Since the two people had finished eating, Ye Chen decided to pay the bill and gestured to the waiter.
Quickly, the waiter came over, smiling, and said, "Sir and madam, have you finished eating?"
"Yes, it was excellent, simply delicious," Su Wanyi said.
Ye Chen took out two red bills and handed them to the waiter.
It was only then that Su Wanyi realized that a bowl of tripe soup cost 100 yuan.
Although the tripe soup was sold at an exorbitant price, people still kept coming to eat.
Of course, someone who can spend 100 yuan on a bowl of tripe soup is definitely not your average person.
The two of them stood up and walked outside.
Usually, after a meal, they would stay in the restaurant for a while, but this place was too small.
And since there were many people waiting for a table outside, they felt it wasn’t right to sit there chatting.
Su Wanyi stepped out of the restaurant and looked up at the sky, exclaiming, "Honey, look, the moon is so beautiful tonight."
Ye Chen also looked up at the sky, and indeed, the moon was as big and round as Su Wanyi said.
The two of them strolled while admiring the moon, taking the opportunity for a digestive walk.
"So, was it worth the trip?" Ye Chen asked the girl beside him.
"Yes, I didn’t expect such a delicious place to be hidden in this little alley," Su Wanyi nodded and smiled.
If Ye Chen hadn’t brought her here, she probably wouldn’t have ever found it.
Especially since Su Wanyi usually eats at very upscale restaurants.
Actually, having gourmet food is great, but sometimes having a snack like this is quite nice.
The two of them chatted as they walked, and soon they arrived at the parking lot.
Ye Chen knew Su Wanyi had other things to do, so he took her straight home.
In the evening, he still needed to contact Yang Mimi, so he didn’t stay overnight.
"Honey, lock the door and get some rest," Ye Chen waved to Su Wanyi and said.
He knew that in this situation, Su Wanyi wouldn’t let him stay over.
So Su Wanyi didn’t question the reason for Ye Chen leaving.
"Okay, honey, drive safely and call me when you get home," Su Wanyi said with a smile.
Since it was nighttime and there were few cars on the road, Ye Chen reached home in no time.
Just as Ye Chen was about to call Su Wanyi, his phone rang.
Glancing at it, it was actually a call from Yang Mimi.
"Mimi, did you secretly install a GPS on me?" Ye Chen joked.
Startled by Ye Chen’s question, Yang Mimi was somewhat confused: "Brother Chen, what do you mean by that? I don’t understand."
"Mimi, I mean, how is it that your call came right as I got home?" Ye Chen stated directly.
"Yeah, I didn’t want to interrupt your pleasant time with Sister Wan Yi," Yang Mimi replied playfully.
"Mimi, you naughty girl," Ye Chen shook his head, looking a bit helpless.
"Oh come on, Brother Chen, I learned all this from you," Yang Mimi said.
Ye Chen knew that Yang Mimi must have a reason for calling.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t be calling so late.
"Mimi, have you found out who the mastermind is?" Ye Chen asked.
"Brother Chen, you’re so smart to figure out why I called," Yang Mimi praised.
"Alright, you like to make jokes about me. Hurry and get to the point," Ye Chen said, slightly annoyed.
"Brother Chen, look how you scold me. You ask for help, yet you’re not polite. You just bully me," Yang Mimi said, with a hint of grievance.
Before Ye Chen could respond, Yang Mimi continued: "If Sister Wan Yi called you, you wouldn’t act this way, right?"
Ye Chen thought to himself about how Su Wanyi came into the conversation out of nowhere.
He wondered if Su Wanyi was sneezing at home at that moment.
After taking a bath, Su Wanyi checked the time, thinking: Ye Chen should be home by now, why hasn’t he called?
So, without waiting any longer, she dialed Ye Chen’s number.
To her surprise, the other line was busy.
This meant Ye Chen was talking to someone else, causing her heart to sink.
While Ye Chen was chatting with Yang Mimi, he noticed another call coming in and saw it was from Su Wanyi.
It was all because Mimi rambled on without getting to the point, which led to the long conversation.
"Mimi, I’ll hang up now, let’s talk later." Ye Chen said, hurriedly ending the call and dialing back Su Wanyi.
Su Wanyi was wondering who Ye Chen had been talking to.
Suddenly, her phone rang, and it was Ye Chen calling back.
When she answered, she said crossly, "Ye Chen. Why didn’t you call me when you got home? You made me worry."
Su Wanyi was smart and didn’t directly ask Ye Chen who he’d been calling.
"Sorry, honey, a friend happened to call with something going on, so we ended up chatting for a while," Ye Chen explained.
"That friend of yours is probably a girl, right?" Su Wanyi asked, with a tinge of jealousy in her voice.
"How is that possible? Late at night, who else would call me besides you?" Ye Chen still didn’t admit it, worrying that Su Wanyi wouldn’t sleep well.
Hung-up Mimi felt quite vexed; if she called another man, he’d probably feel honored.
But she never got that feeling with Ye Chen, often ending conversations feeling let down.
There’s no need to wonder why Ye Chen ended the call; it must be related to Su Wanyi.
But what could she do? Clearly, Ye Chen’s heart belonged to Su Wanyi.
Never had he mentioned liking her, Yang Mimi, selfishly deluding herself.
"Ye Chen, you don’t have to deceive me. I know you were talking to a girl. Why are we being so secretive?" Su Wanyi said coldly.
"No, honey, stop overthinking. Rest now and we’ll talk tomorrow if needed," Ye Chen said, comforting her with a laugh.
