RBCT Chapter 65 Fever
Chapter 65 Fever
However, unlike Chen Jiang who was focused on eating, Chen Yasi was not idle while eating. She kept her head down, cutting her steak with a knife and fork, while occasionally glancing up at Chen Jiang.
I think he seems a little more pleasing to the eye now...
Given her personality, she naturally has many male friends, but she always keeps relationships very clear: friends are friends, and there can be no overstepping of boundaries.
Also, perhaps due to her physical condition, she hadn't really thought about men.
When I was in school, I was the student council president, in charge of a group of people. I was too serious and my conditions were too good, so not many people dared to pursue me.
After graduating and starting my own business, I didn't encounter many truly outstanding young talents. They were either overweight middle-aged people or rich but incompetent second-generation rich kids.
With her qualifications, how could she possibly be interested in those kinds of people? She's also busy with her business and work, so she hasn't really considered these things.
But now that she's getting older and her job has stabilized so she doesn't need to be so busy anymore, and after being provoked by Gao Wen, she really wants to experience what it's like to be in love.
It just so happens that someone not dislikes her, and even somewhat pleasing to the eye, appears right in front of her, so naturally she has some thoughts about him.
And to be honest, Chen Jiang's looks weren't exactly handsome before, but now, if he could lose some weight in his face and get a suitable hairstyle, he would really have that god-like vibe... kind of like a combination of Leon Lai, Takeshi Kaneshiro, and Aaron Kwok.
And then get a proper physique...
"..."
Chen Yasi suddenly blushed and couldn't help rubbing her thigh, feeling that something was a little off.
Quickly put down your knife and fork, pick up your bag and stand up:
"Um, I need to go to the restroom again..."
"???"
Chen Jiang, who was enjoying his meal, stopped, staring at her departing figure with a bewildered expression. Then, he glanced down at the beef on his plate and gasped.
"Hiss... Is this steak undercooked? Oh no... I ordered it medium-well..."
After hesitating for a moment, I still stuffed the rest of the steak into my mouth.
This time, Chen Yasi didn't go for long and returned quickly, only to find that Chen Jiang had almost finished eating and was leisurely sipping his tea while waiting for her: "You're eating too slowly."
"You're eating too fast!"
Chen Yasi sighed. She never imagined she would be so eager. It seemed she would have to reconsider her previous idea of taking things slowly. Perhaps she should just confess her feelings when the opportunity arose.
However, she did have something to do today, and this matter needed to be considered carefully... Perhaps she could ask Gao Wen, since the other party is in a relationship now, she should have more experience than herself, right?
"let's go."
Chen Jiang placed the teacup on the table and looked at her with a puzzled expression:
"Not eating anymore? You haven't even had a few bites."
"I just got a phone call and I was in a bit of a rush. I'm not really hungry either. I'll find another opportunity to eat tonight." Chen Yasi was too embarrassed to eat, so she made up a random excuse.
"Alright, let's go."
Chen Jiang didn't suspect anything, since he was already full.
They got up and walked to the door with Chen Yasi, who took out her card to pay the bill and left the Western restaurant.
......
Since Chen Yasi had something to do, Chen Jiang didn't bother staying at the gym any longer and drove home.
After parking his car in the underground garage, Chen Jiang took the elevator, and as soon as he entered, he discovered that Gao Wen had given him a surprise.
At some point, Gao Wen, dressed in a nurse's uniform and white stockings, was standing in the lobby, busy arranging something, and had placed a lot of roses to the side.
I was startled when I saw Chen Jiang return:
"Honey, why are you back so soon? Didn't you say you'd be back tonight?"
"I was just saying that casually, I didn't say I would definitely be back tonight." Chen Jiang had already walked up to her, and looking at her enchanting attire, he couldn't resist reaching out his devilish hand.
"Hey~~ Stop fooling around!"
Gao Wen blushed, and after letting Chen Jiang take advantage of her a couple of times, she pushed him away:
"They were planning to surprise you with another candlelight dinner since our last one didn't work out, but you came back early, so the surprise is ruined again."
Chen Jiang wasn't disappointed at all; he smiled and hugged her again.
"I think... you've already surprised me enough..."
Faced with this situation, even if his legs went weak, he resolutely refused to back down...
Gao Wen tried to resist, but her resistance was only half-hearted. She didn't last a minute before she became dizzy and collapsed on the sofa, crushing the rose petals which scattered across half of the sofa to the floor.
Just as they were about to get down to business, Gao Wen's phone rang.
Buzz—Buzz—
"Wait, wait a minute!"
Gao Wen finally came to her senses. She had put in a lot of effort to make it like this, so she couldn't just give up halfway. Even if the candlelight dinner was gone, she could at least have made the candlelight!
She quickly broke free from Chen Jiang's embrace, ran to the table in a few strides, picked up her phone, and looked at Chen Jiang warily.
"Wait, hold on! Let me take this call first!"
"Who is it that's calling at this hour, so clueless?"
Chen Jiang rolled his eyes and took the opportunity to take off his clothes.
"It's IELTS."
Seeing that Chen Jiang hadn't caught up, Gao Wen breathed a sigh of relief, then glanced at her phone and was surprised to find that it was Chen Yasi.
"Chen Yasi? Didn't I just finish having dinner with her? She said she was busy."
Chen Jiang was even more puzzled.
Gao Wen looked at Chen Jiang with even more confusion. He said she had something to do, but he didn't say that she went out to dinner with her best friend.
But she didn't dare ask the question and simply answered the phone:
"Hey, IELTS, what's up?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as the call connected, I heard Chen Yasi asking mysteriously:
"Wenwen... is anyone else on your end?"
Upon hearing this, Gao Wen instinctively glanced at Chen Jiang, but then realized she couldn't say that, and quickly replied:
"No...it's just me. What's wrong? Is something the matter?"
"Nobody here?"
Chen Yasi seemed a little surprised, but didn't seem to mind. Instead, she changed to a slightly worried tone and said:
"Wenwen... I have something to tell you, please don't laugh at me, okay?"
"Of course, what kind of relationship do we have? Why would I laugh at you?" Gao Wen noticed that Chen Yasi's mood was a bit off, so she quickly comforted her gently, "Just tell me what's wrong."
"That's good... I knew you were good to me, Wenwen..."
Chen Yasi first sighed, then hesitantly explained the problem she had encountered:
"Wenwen... I think I might be craving a man..."
"Cough cough cough!!"
Almost instantly, Gao Wen, unable to hold back, started coughing.
Although best friends usually chat about all sorts of things, both risqué and risqué, this was too direct. The key point was... she glanced at Chen Jiang, who was already listening intently with a look of surprise and eagerness to hear the gossip, and leaned closer, but she couldn't care less about that now.
He quickly asked, "Huh? You... what's going on?"
Chen Yasi was quite embarrassed, but since she had already said what she wanted to say, she figured it didn't matter anymore and decided to just go for it.
"You know, I've never really been interested in men before... but lately I think I'm starting to get horny!"
"I'm a little surprised by Chen Jiang... you know, the Chen Jiang I met last time who took you to the film set. I just had dinner with him, and I'm a bit... I think it's time for me to find a boyfriend."
"So what do you think, how about I try pursuing Chen Jiang...?"
