When Yu Feng went to work at the company, Xiao Yun picked up Little Cutie. Don't ask why Xiao Yun could enter Yu Feng's apartment. Since Su Rou went on a trip, Yu Feng had specially given Xiao Yun a key to his home so that she could go over anytime to take care of Little Cutie.
When Xiao Yun unlocked the door with the key, she saw Little Cutie gnawing at the sofa. "Good job!"
"Woof woof!"
Little Cutie barked a few times cheerfully, then ran quickly towards Xiao Yun and pounced on her affectionately.
"Let's go. I'll take you out," Xiao Yun said as she took Little Cutie's leash. "We're going to sister's place."
...
Recently, Yu Feng had a lot of work at the company, leaving him with no time to think about other things.
"President, there's someone here to see you," the assistant knocked on the office door and said to the man buried in his work.
"Okay."
"Mr. Yu, you're really a busy man," a gentle female voice rang out.
Hearing this voice, Yu Feng immediately looked up and saw a long - haired woman standing at the door. "It's you. Long time no see, Mo'er."
"Yeah, it's been about a decade," Su Mo'er walked in with a beaming smile.
"So, are you planning to develop your career in China this time you're back?" He remembered that Su Mo'er studied fashion design. Couldn't she have a good development abroad?
Su Mo'er gave him a sidelong glance. "Have you forgotten? The baby - match we had when we were kids."
"..." Yu Feng was stunned for a moment. "Oh, this... You still remember!" It was something he had no memory of from childhood. It was amazing that she still remembered.
Su Mo'er smiled softly. "It's not that I remember. It's my daddy who remembers."
"Uncle..." Yu Feng showed a helpless expression. "Uncle isn't trying to force us into marriage, is he?"
Su Mo'er laughed. "Judging from daddy's temper, he probably will."
"..." Yu Feng sighed, then with an apologetic look on his face, he said, "To be honest, my feelings for you are just those of childhood friends. I've always regarded you as my little sister."
"Really?" The smile on Su Mo'er's lips became more obvious. "Then we need to have a good talk."
...
Yu Feng returned home in a great mood. When he passed by Xiao Yun's door, he stopped and knocked on it.
"It's you," Xiao Yun opened the door and saw Yu Feng.
"Have you had dinner?" Yu Feng asked with a big smile.
"Not yet..."
"Then, let's go," Yu Feng said as he took Xiao Yun's hand and walked out. "I'll treat you to dinner. This time we won't bring Little Cutie."
Little Cutie saw the two of them about to go out and instinctively wanted to follow, but Yu Feng closed the door and locked it inside.
"Not bring it?"
"What do we need a dog for when we're having dinner?" It would be such a spoilsport!
"But we brought it last time," Xiao Yun said. What difference did it make? Anyway, the restaurant didn't ban dogs.
Yu Feng gave her a sidelong look. "We'll bring some meaty bones back for it later." It was just a dog. What was there to worry about?
"Ah..."
Xiao Yun was about to say something else when Yu Feng pulled her away. It was 7 p.m., just the right time for dinner.
They came to a romantic restaurant. Xiao Yun felt a bit embarrassed looking at all the couples. It felt so awkward for them, who weren't a couple, to come in for dinner. It was also easy for others to misunderstand.
"Why do you always take me to such strange places for dinner?" Xiao Yun was very puzzled. Couldn't they just find a small eatery? It would be more down - to - earth!
"Don't you think it's very romantic here?" Yu Feng said with a smile.
"Romantic..." Before Xiao Yun could finish, a waitress suddenly came over, which really startled Xiao Yun. "What are you doing?"
The waitress held a rose and a menu. She put the menu on the table and handed the rose to Xiao Yun. "Miss, you're so cute."
"..." Xiao Yun took the rose passively. What was going on? Did they even give flowers to women?
"Ahem, let me order," Yu Feng cleared his throat and then opened the menu to order.
After the waitress left, Xiao Yun held the rose and looked at Yu Feng strangely. "Does this restaurant give flowers to everyone?"
Yu Feng smiled reassuringly. "It's okay. Just take it."
"Ah..." But it was so strange.
Soon, the waiters started to serve the dishes. And for each dish, they would give Xiao Yun a rose. In total, Xiao Yun had received nine roses.
Xiao Yun put the roses on the table. "What's this restaurant up to?" Other people didn't get any roses. Why was it just her?
Yu Feng cleared his throat. "Actually..."
"Ah?"
"I asked you to come here because I have something to tell you," Yu Feng said seriously for once.
Xiao Yun was picking up some food while asking, "What is it?"
Yu Feng said seriously, "Be my girlfriend."
"..." The food in Xiao Yun's hand dropped, but she didn't care. The words Yu Feng had just said were still echoing in her ears. "What did you say?" It must be her hallucination, right? About being his girlfriend, either he was joking or she had heard wrong.
Yu Feng had guessed that Xiao Yun would react like this, but since he had said it, he wasn't afraid. "I said, you, be my girlfriend."
Yu Feng spoke very slowly, word by word. "Did you hear clearly?"
"..." She heard clearly. She had heard clearly the first time. It was just that... she couldn't believe it. So, these roses... were given by Yu Feng?
Nine roses, did it represent everlasting love? Was he serious?
Suddenly, there was a moment of silence at the dinner table. Yu Feng was quite patient waiting for Xiao Yun's answer. But this was the first time Xiao Yun had encountered such a situation. It could be said that it was the first time she had been confessed to, and by this childish guy who was five years older than her!
She had never thought that their relationship would one day be upgraded to that of a boyfriend - girlfriend.
This silent atmosphere made Xiao Yun a bit uncomfortable... no, extremely uncomfortable. What should she do now? She had no experience!
Xiao Yun nervously wrung her hands under the table. What should she do?
"Xiao Yun?" Not hearing Xiao Yun say anything for a long time, Yu Feng asked curiously, "What do you think..."
"I, I'll go to the restroom," Xiao Yun interrupted.
"Ah, okay," Yu Feng looked at Xiao Yun getting up awkwardly and walking out quickly in surprise.
Yu Feng couldn't help but sigh. What was Xiao Yun thinking? Actually, he was a bit nervous too. What if Xiao Yun refused him?
It didn't matter if she refused. Anyway, no one would dare to take that tomboy. He would just slowly win her over.
Xiao Yun didn't really want to go to the restroom. She just used it as an excuse to escape. After walking out of the restaurant, Xiao Yun was still a bit uneasy. Was it okay for her to just leave like this?
But... if she didn't leave, would she go back and continue to be embarrassed?
She was so confused!
"Ah - so annoying!" That damned Yu Feng. Why did he suddenly say such things? It made her not know how to face him.
Forget it, forget it. She didn't care about anything! She would run away!
"Hello? Fei Fei? Can I stay at your place for a few days?" Xiao Yun took out her phone and dialed a number.
"Sure... but what's wrong?"
"Nothing... I'll tell you when I get there."
"Okay."
...
Yu Feng kept looking at his watch. Why wasn't she coming out? Did it really take this long to go to the restroom? Was something wrong?
"Excuse me," Yu Feng stopped a waitress. "My female companion went to the restroom and hasn't come out yet. Could you please go and check?"
"Do you mean the girl with a ponytail?" the waitress asked.
"Yeah, that's her."
"Well, she's already left," the waitress said. "It's been a while."
"Left?" Yu Feng raised his eyebrows.
"Yes."
Yu Feng narrowed his eyes. Dammit!
That tomboy actually left first! Was his confession that scary? Yu Feng took out his phone and dialed Xiao Yun's number. As expected, a mechanical female voice came from the other end of the phone. "The number you dialed is powered off..."
"Xiao, Yun..." Yu Feng tightened his grip on the phone. Good for you! You actually had the nerve to run away after being confessed to! "You'd better not let me catch you!"
Otherwise, he would definitely give her a good spanking!
