“Okay, Weiwan, come to the kitchen and cook with me, cook for your male ‘friend’.” Lin’s mother’s tone deliberately emphasized, expressing her dissatisfaction with Weiwan’s constant evasion of their relationship.
Obviously, they were a couple! Yet she kept saying he was just a male “friend”. What was wrong with this girl? The man clearly looked talented and extraordinary, impeccable in both appearance and manner – a perfect man. What could she possibly be complaining about?
“Mom—” Lin Weiwan’s voice escaped through her teeth. She was beginning to regret bringing Ye Lixie along.
Previously, it was purely out of urgency, plus his willingness to help. She had completely forgotten about her mother’s “enthusiasm” that could cause her such trouble.
Now, how could she explain? A simple boss-employee relationship? Would anyone believe that?
Her mother was totally misinterpreting things! Even if she jumped into the Yellow River, she couldn’t wash away this misunderstanding.
She cast a pleading look at Ye Lixie, hoping he would speak up to clarify, but the man instead casually informed her about his food preferences – not liking overly greasy, spicy, or salty dishes.
Lin Weiwan was almost driven to punch him in frustration.
Was he doing this on purpose? Such “explanations” would only drag her deeper into an embarrassing situation.
Seeing his expression after speaking, as if his explanation was critically important, Lin Weiwan turned away in anger and walked into the kitchen, ignoring him.
Whatever, if you’re happy being misunderstood, that’s your problem. I don’t care, she thought resentfully.
Ye Lixie reached out and brushed Jun Hao’s hair, stopping his crying, and softly laughed: “A real man doesn’t cry. A man’s shoulder is meant to support women. If this mountain isn’t stable enough, how can you bring happiness to the one you love?”
Jun Hao bit his lip, wiped away his tears after hearing these words, and looked up at his sister’s boyfriend. Suddenly, he thought, his sister’s taste in men is really excellent!
Although this man emanated an intimidating and severe aura, when his deep black eyes looked at his crying sister, his gaze clearly carried a tender and gentle light.
What a gentle and compassionate look! He is indeed his sister’s boyfriend, Jun Hao thought to himself.
