Chapter 823: Chapter 804: Four Sweethearts Together! (Part 1)
Over the phone, Yan Siyuan instructed Ye Qingcao to order the dishes first.
So after he hung up, Ye Qingcao immediately called over the waiter to order.
Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng played along with the host, letting Ye Qingcao order.
Thus, the generous and bold Ye Qingcao swiftly ordered West Lake Vinegar Fish, Beggar’s Chicken, Dongpo Pork, Dragon Well Shrimp, and Bamboo Shoots with Old Duck Soup, all popular Hangzhou dishes among tourists.
By the time Yan Siyuan returned with a few bottles of milk tea, Ye Qingcao had already placed the order.
Yan Siyuan sat directly next to Ye Qingcao, deftly distributed four cups of milk tea, and they began to drink and chat about old times.
Huo Feng had just heard from Ye Qingcao about the general story of Yan Siyuan and Ye Qingcao’s relationship.
Now that Yan Siyuan was back, Huo Feng asked him again for confirmation, "Yan Ji, did you two meet through a game?"
After he asked, Yan Siyuan glanced at Ye Qingcao, as if asking her, ’Did you tell them?’...
Ye Qingcao smiled sheepishly, her smile confirming that she indeed had told them.
Yan Siyuan didn’t blame her, only replied to Huo Feng, "Online love, meeting in real life."
Online love, meeting in real life...
Those four words encompassed over 5 years of online friendship between Yan Siyuan and Ye Qingcao.
Out of the four present, nearly no one knew Yan Siyuan’s feelings. Nor did anyone know the emotions experienced when Yan Siyuan and Ye Qingcao interacted online...
Indeed, it was an online romance turning real.
However, this online romance took a long time, so much so that Yan Siyuan couldn’t wait any longer and hastily made it real.
"Yes, online love, meeting in real life."
Ye Qingcao next to him nodded in agreement, fully affirming Yan Siyuan’s words.
Though she felt those four words sounded unreliable, her feelings for Yan Siyuan were very reliable!
"Tsk tsk tsk..."
Huo Feng bit onto the straw of his milk tea, making a ’tsk’ sound, "I never realized you were someone who played online romance. I was wondering why you always replied instantly when I messaged you; looks like you really enjoy making friends online."
"Do you have a problem?"
Yan Siyuan raised an eyebrow, "Didn’t we also become familiar online? Otherwise, how would you have ever had the chance to be friends with me?"
"Tsk!"
Huo Feng gritted his teeth, "That’s kind of annoying to hear! I wasn’t that keen on being friends with you; I looked for you just to provoke you back then!"
"Got it."
Yan Siyuan smirked casually, "Always provoking and always failing. You’re one of my most resilient defeated opponents."
Huo Feng: "..." I really don’t want to talk to Yan Ji!
Acting like this even in front of his girlfriend!
Does he even understand emotional intelligence!
"Yan Siyuan, you’re serious about our Xiaocao, right?"
Fortunately, Pu Sangzhi didn’t care that Yan Siyuan saw Huo Feng as a loser; she opened her mouth to ask about Ye Qingcao.
As Ye Qingcao’s best friend, Pu Sangzhi was certainly concerned about Ye Qingcao’s happiness in life.
One could say that once she asked the question, Ye Qingcao immediately tensed up, took a big sip of milk tea, and widened her eyes, eagerly yet nervously awaiting Yan Siyuan’s response!
Without a doubt, Yan Siyuan gave them a two-word answer: "Of course."
Although he answered very swiftly and naturally, without even a hint of increased emphasis...
Yet, those two words still gave Ye Qingcao a sense of reassurance!
In that instant, all of Ye Qingcao’s nervousness went back into her stomach!
"Xiaocao has been my best friend since we were little. I won’t allow you to hurt her." Pu Sangzhi warned Yan Siyuan.
"Yeah, Yan Ji."
Huo Feng quickly spoke up, supporting for his girlfriend, "Little Green Grass is silly and a good girl. I haven’t seen you in a relationship in these years, so you should treat her well. You can’t just treat your feelings casually because it’s an online romance!"
Yan Siyuan didn’t quite understand why Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng seemed to think he wasn’t serious about the relationship.
However, he still calmly replied with two words: "Of course."
After saying that, Yan Siyuan even turned his head, giving Ye Qingcao a sidelong glance.
Ye Qingcao had been watching him continuously, eagerly anticipating his every answer, but suddenly meeting his gaze made her heart skip a beat. Startled, she took a big sip of milk tea to calm her nerves!
Oh my...
The sudden eye contact, so nerve-wracking!
"Drink slowly."
Yan Siyuan suddenly raised a hand, pressing it lightly on her head.
In this small gesture, there was a trace of affection!
Ye Qingcao instantly felt like she was blissfully ascending to the heavens!
She felt like she was floating!
"Ahem..."
Opposite them, Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng suddenly felt uncomfortable with their public display of affection, and Huo Feng couldn’t help but cough, "Uh, let’s talk about careers instead!"
Perhaps it was because since college, Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng were usually the ones showcasing their affection in front of others, and it had been a long time since they had seen others display affection in front of them.
That’s why they found Yan Siyuan and Ye Qingcao’s sudden display so unusual!
It shouldn’t be because they thought the two were mismatched...
It should...
"There’s no rush for that."
Yan Siyuan said, "After dinner, let the two girls shop around West Lake. You come with me to my dorm, I have two plans to discuss with you in detail."
Huo Feng agreed, "Sure."
Then, Yan Siyuan naturally said to Ye Qingcao, "After dinner, take your good friend around. I won’t be joining. I’ll transfer some money to you. If it’s not enough, let me know. Don’t skimp on your good friend, and don’t save either."
Ye Qingcao shook her head a little embarrassed, "You don’t need to transfer me money. I have money, we won’t spend yours."
"No need to save for me. That’s settled." Yan Siyuan said in a firm tone, clearly not open to discussion with Ye Qingcao!
This is truly surprising!
Huo Feng almost spat out his milk tea when he heard the words ’no need to save’ from his mouth!
You know, Yan Siyuan used to be really stingy!
When he gave Huo Feng a birthday gift, it was a freebie from his piano lessons. He was extremely tightfisted!
He’s changed, changed...
Or maybe he’s gotten rich, gotten rich...
Huo Feng felt quite relieved now!
He knew, this time, he could definitely extort a few meals out of Yan Siyuan!
However, Ye Qingcao was very embarrassed, "Don’t always pay for me, or else I won’t be able to lift my head in front of you in the future."
When saying this, Ye Qingcao really kept her head very low.
Yan Siyuan glanced at her, with a smile on his lips, and said lightly: "Then you slowly get used to it."
Ye Qingcao: "Huh?"
Get used to what?
Get used to keeping her head down?
Or get used to him paying for her?
Why not make it clear?
And then, the topic really just passed...
The waiter brought dish after dish, and Yan Siyuan started to invite Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng: "Eat up, it’s all Hangzhou cuisine. It’s similar to Wenzhou flavors, it shouldn’t taste bad."
"What do you mean by it shouldn’t taste bad? When you come here, you definitely have to eat something delicious!"
Huo Feng retorted, "Still so bad with words, your EQ is still a big flaw!"
Yan Siyuan also struck back at Huo Feng: "Well, it’s still better than some people whose IQ is a big flaw."
Huo Feng: "Sorry, I’m your Tsinghua dad."
Yan Siyuan: "Childish."
Huo Feng: "..."
What the heck.
It’s simply impossible to chat with Yan Ji!
Every moment makes you want to cut him off!
...
After dinner, Ye Qingcao took Pu Sangzhi to walk around West Lake.
Coming to Hangzhou to play, West Lake is a must-see sight!
This semester, Ye Qingcao and Yan Siyuan almost wore out West Lake!
In every corner of West Lake, there are traces of Ye Qingcao and Yan Siyuan!
Every time they meet offline, it’s at this place~
Ye Qingcao still clearly remembers, when they first officially met here, they met at Broken Bridge!
Just like the Lady White Snake and Xu Xian, they approached each other from the opposite ends of the bridge...
Slowly approached...
Ye Qingcao wore a mask, lowered her head, and wanted to adjust her mood low-key!
As a result, Yan Siyuan just called her.
He basically recognized her in one glance!
Then, while strolling West Lake, Ye Qingcao told Pu Sangzhi about this incident.
Pu Sangzhi found it quite interesting, "So when you’re with Yan Siyuan, do you feel a sense of security?"
"What sense of security, right now my head is just full of happiness!"
Ye Qingcao clasped her hands, her face blushing a unique shade of red, "I don’t care about a sense of security, right now I just need happiness. You don’t know, he’s the dream of half my life~ It wasn’t easy to make it come true, now I just want to enjoy the feeling of being in love with him, I don’t want to enjoy the feeling of jealousy at all!"
"That’s true."
Pu Sangzhi nodded, "No one wants to be jealous. Being jealous is so uncomfortable."
"Exactly!"
Ye Qingcao nodded, "I’ve been jealous for many years! Now, I finally have the position where I don’t have to be jealous! I’m so happy I could die!"
Seeing her face full of satisfaction, Pu Sangzhi couldn’t help but smile, "So becoming a girlfriend means you won’t be jealous?"
Ye Qingcao nodded again, "Yeah! Because I’m the official one, others should be the ones jealous of me!"
I see...
But...
Why does Pu Sangzhi still get jealous?
Clearly, Huo Feng loves her very much and gives her a lot of security...
Clearly, she is also the official one...
But, she still gets jealous?
