Chapter 785: Stew the Boyfriend
Chapter 785: Stew the Boyfriend
Early the next morning, Ye Fan and Fu Huixia left the house.Under Fu Huixia’s guidance, after having breakfast, the two headed to the training base.
Secretly, in a car, a man was stealthily monitoring Fu Huixia’s every move. After discovering that Ye Fan and Fu Huixia were seen together, he immediately made a call, whispering: "Young Master Dai, Miss Fu had breakfast with a man, and then they left together in a car. They both walked out from Miss Fu’s residence. I bet they stayed under the same roof last night."
The man monitoring hadn’t actually seen Ye Fan and Fu Huixia together last night, nor had he seen them enter Fu Huixia’s residence.
However, it was obvious that one could deduce that Ye Fan was at Fu Huixia’s place last night without any doubt.
Inside a large mansion, a young man, after hearing this news, angrily said: "What? She had breakfast with a strange man and even moved in together?"
This young man was none other than the "Young Master Dai" mentioned by the monitoring man.
It was evident from this that Young Master Dai was a suitor of Fu Huixia.
His name was Dai Zhanpeng, and Ye Fan wasn’t familiar with this name at all, but he did know Dai Zhanpeng’s father.
When Ye Fan got engaged to Mengyao and returned to Ye Qingping’s house, Old Man Fu, along with Xiaolong and General Dai Anping, came to visit. This General Dai was indeed Dai Zhanpeng’s father.
While having breakfast, Dai Zhanpeng furrowed his brows and demanded, "Who is that man?"
Dai Zhanpeng had been persistently pursuing Fu Huixia. When he learned that Fu Huixia had suddenly turned down her job and mysteriously disappeared, he spared no effort in investigating. He only managed to gather a few clues, suggesting she was on a special mission. However, he couldn’t find out what exactly she was doing.
After some preparation, Dai Zhanpeng then had someone keep a close watch on Fu Huixia. The purpose was to find the right opportunity to appear in front of Fu Huixia, so he could court her and launch his pursuit campaign.
"I don’t know." The monitoring man responded earnestly, "I have no information about that man, but I’m sure he’s not anyone familiar to us."
"Find out! You must uncover that man’s identity and background. Daring to cohabit with the woman I intend to marry, he’s got some nerve." Dai Zhanpeng ordered furiously.
"Yes!" The monitoring man replied assuredly.
"Fu Huixia, you’ve really disappointed me. You always ignored me with that high-and-mighty attitude, yet now you’re cohabiting with a stranger. What a great ability indeed." Dai Zhanpeng complained with frustration and snorted angrily.
Meanwhile, Fu Huixia was driving, with Ye Fan on their way to the training base.
Neither of them was aware of this whole matter.
Fu Huixia was very quiet, focused on driving, without any intention of chatting.
Ye Fan hesitated for a moment before saying, "About last night, I’m really sorry."
He was a person who distinguished clearly between work and personal matters. He knew that although he meant well last night, he messed up, and he indeed had some wrongs. He thought to apologize since Fu Huixia had always taken good care of him, and what he did was indeed a well-intended mistake.
"It’s okay, it was unintentional on your part, and I shouldn’t have put things I shouldn’t in the fridge," Fu Huixia responded casually.
Yet inside, she felt quite embarrassed. As a modern woman, who doesn’t have a few unique pleasure tools? It’s normal, but to have someone else stumble upon such a private matter, how could she possibly live it down, let alone that it got eaten.
"The responsibility for this lies with me. I was thinking of using those ingredients to make something to eat, but I didn’t expect to stew your boyfriend in one pot," Ye Fan said, quoting Biyao’s words to indirectly illustrate what was in the fridge.
"Stew my boyfriend in one pot?" Fu Huixia’s hand slackened, her expression tensed, and she almost forgot to control the steering wheel, causing the car to drift off track and nearly hit the guardrail.
She glared at Ye Fan with extreme frustration and thought bitterly: "Is that even a way to speak? Really, you can’t expect anything decent from a dog’s mouth. Stewing my boyfriend in one pot, what kind of brain do you have to say such bizarre things? What a peculiar man."
She mumbled inwardly for a while before resigning: "This Chapter is closed. Let’s not bring it up again, okay?"
"No way." Ye Fan said decisively, "It’s only natural for women to need things like cucumbers and sausages. I want to say there’s nothing to worry about. You shouldn’t feel any psychological pressure or think that your privacy has been compromised by me. Just don’t have any unnecessary thoughts, and all will be well."
Confronted with Ye Fan’s word-for-word talk, Fu Huixia grew frantic, embarrassed. She said, "Knowing you’re peculiar is enough, right? Don’t make me keep calling you peculiar. I honestly can’t take it. Rest assured, I’ve accepted it. I won’t be driven to despair just because of embarrassment or because you stumbled onto something hard to mention. You should stop worrying. Have a good rest and don’t bother about me."
Following Ye Fan’s elucidation, Fu Huixia felt much better, after all, hiding and concealing something so unspeakable was torturous. It was preferable to just lay it bare, which cleared away the awkwardness.
With a bitter smile, Fu Huixia seemed to feel a bit of clearing after a storm. At least, she felt no more embarrassment.
Yet what Ye Fan said next made Fu Huixia go wild.
"After all, it was me who stewed your fridge’s boyfriend in one pot. How about, after we’re done, I go to the supermarket and buy you a whole set of boyfriends to put back in the fridge? It would be convenient for you next time you use them, and it’d also be my apology," Ye Fan said sincerely.
"You, you, you..." Fu Huixia was exasperated, her face flushed with anger, she said furiously, "You really want to drive people mad without paying for their life, don’t you?"
"I genuinely mean to express my apology." Ye Fan said earnestly.
"..." Fu Huixia rolled her eyes, almost fainting from anger.
She was genuinely frustrated.
Is there even a way to talk like this?
Buying her a whole set of boyfriends to put in the fridge for her convenience when using them, does that sound sensible?
It’s totally out of place, utterly out of place.
Yet looking at Ye Fan’s earnest and innocent eyes, Fu Huixia was genuinely defeated by his pureheartedness and couldn’t hold him accountable. She could only smack the steering wheel heavily and vent her dissatisfaction.
Fu Huixia was truly internally upset from anger.
Sometimes, she couldn’t help but doubt if Ye Fan’s cold facade was just an act.
But looking at Ye Fan’s expression, she really couldn’t be certain; otherwise, she would have sought him out to settle the score.
"Heh." Ye Fan’s lips slightly curved up imperceptibly as if he finally knew this whole ordeal was truly over.
