Chapter 1717: Awkward Moment
In the elevator, Sun Jie called Yang Ming.
“We’re here. Are you in the private room?” Previously, Yang Ming had only sent the private room number to Sun Jie. Sun Jie was unsure if Yang Ming was in the private room, so she called to confirm.
“I’m in the private room, just come straight up,” said Yang Ming.
“Okay, we’ll come up now,” said Sun Jie.
“We? Is there someone else?” Yang Ming was slightly surprised. “Sister Xiao Qing said that she couldn’t come because she had something to do in the evening, right?”
“It’s not Sister Xiao Qing. It’s a classmate of mine,” Sun Jie said with a smile. “What’s the matter? Is she not welcome?”
“That’s not it…” Yang Ming smiled bitterly in his heart. Truth be told, I am secretly unwelcoming of her. I finally get to spend time alone with Sun Jie, but she brought other people.
“Then wait for us. Rest assured, she is also a beauty,” Sun Jie said as she laughed.
“Okay.” Yang Ming could only accept this reality.
“What’s up? Is your boyfriend not happy?” Zhao Ying asked after Sun Jie hung up the phone. “Is he afraid that I will interrupt your romantic evening?”
“How could that be? He was just a little surprised,” Sun Jie shook her head and said with ease. She naturally knew that Yang Ming would be a little willy-nitty, but she couldn’t tell Zhao Ying or she would affect her mood.
“Since my friend has something to do tonight, I think it’s better to forget about this evening…” Zhao Ying said hesitantly. “I would ruin the atmosphere by being with you two.”
“How could that be?” Sun Jie quickly grabbed Zhao Ying. “You can’t go. Moreover, didn’t you say that your man will come over when he has time?”
“I don’t know if he has time…” Zhao Ying said in doubt.
“Wouldn’t you know if he has time in a while? Let’s go, we’re already here!” Sun Jie didn’t waste any time as she pulled Zhao Ying out of the elevator and walked towards the Private Room 307.
Sun Jie was a frequent visitor to the Song Jiang International Hotel. She didn’t need a waiter to take Zhao Ying directly to Private Room 307.
“Dang dang dang…” Sun Jie knocked on the door.
“Who is it?” asked Yang Ming.
“It’s me,” said Sun Jie.
“En?” Zhao Ying heard Yang Ming’s voice and was slightly stunned. Why is this voice so familiar?
“Zhao Ying, what’s wrong with you?” Sun Jie turned her head and asked when she heard Zhao Ying’s surprised cry.
“I’m fine…” Zhao Ying shook her head and smiled apologetically. Of course, she would not think that the person in the private room was her acquaintance. There were many people with similar voices.
While they were talking, the room’s door opened. Yang Ming stepped out and gave Sun Jie a warm hug, “Little Jie, you are here!”
“Ah-” Zhao Ying exclaimed. She covered her mouth, watching the scene in front of her with incredulity.
Zhao Ying was stunned from the moment Yang Min walked out of the private room. She was also secretly a little surprised! Did Yang Ming get here first?
Alas, she thought for a while. Although she told Yang Ming that the dinner would be at the Song Jiang International Hotel, she didn’t tell him the private room’s number! He did not know that dinner was in Private Room 307. Even she herself had just learned that it was in this private room.
So, how did Yang Ming find this place? An ominous hunch loomed in Zhao Ying’s heart after she thought about it. When Yang Ming affectionately called Sun Jie’s name and embraced her, there was a sudden “click” in Zhao Ying’s mind…
Her ominous hunch had finally become a reality! Could Sun Jie’s boyfriend be Yang Ming?! How could there be such a coincidence in this world?
Zhao Ying’s mind was blank. She was stunned for a while. She didn’t know what to do.
Hearing Zhao Ying’s exclamation, Yang Ming was alerted instantly! Previously, he hadn’t used special abilities to scout outside the room beforehand, so he did not know who Sun Jie brought.
Yang Ming didn’t think much about it. Sun Jie had simply brought a classmate. If he used his special abilities to peek in advance, he would be making a fuss over a small issue. When Yang Ming opened the door, his attention was also focused on Sun Jie, so he didn’t pay attention to the person beside her.
Although Zhao Ying immediately covered her mouth after she exclaimed, it was too late. Yang Ming looked at Zhao Ying and suddenly froze! How can it be Zhao Ying? Sun Jie’s classmate is Zhao Ying?
Why haven’t I heard of this before? This is troublesome…
“Yang Ming, this is my good sister Zhao Ying… Huh? What’s wrong with you? Why do you have this expression?” Although Sun Jie also heard Zhao Ying’s previous exclamation, she didn’t take it seriously because she thought Zhao Ying was startled by Yang Ming’s sudden embrace.
“Good sister…” Yang Ming smiled wryly, inexplicably repeating Sun Jie’s words. How come Sun Jie’s words seem to have a double meaning?
“Yang Ming, what’s the matter with you?” Sun Jie frowned. “Zhao Ying is nice! Can you not show such a bitter expression?”
“I-” Yang Ming didn’t know how to explain. Sun Jie had apparently misunderstood him, thinking that his bitter expression was because he did not welcome g Zhao Ying. How would she know the real reason?
“Zhao Ying, please don’t mind him. My boyfriend is like this. He is not very good at expressing his emotions. He is usually foolish…” Sun Jie glared at Yang Ming while she explained to Zhao Ying.
“Oh… It’s nothing, I’m fine…” Zhao Ying smiled absently, secretly a little disappointed. Hearing Sun Jie call Yang Ming as her “boyfriend”, Zhao Ying had no doubt that Sun Jie’s boyfriend was indeed Yang Ming.
However, when did Yang Ming and Sun Jie get together? Why didn’t I know anything about it? I never even saw Yang Ming bring Sun Jie back to the villa.
“Zhao Ying, you really shouldn’t mind…” Sun Jie was also wondering. Yang Ming is not a petty person, so what happened today? We have hung out with friends before, such as Yang Xin. Yang Ming was very affectionate when he hung out with her and even considered her as an elder sister. But why is he so different when it comes to Zhao Ying?
Logically, with Sun Jie’s shrewdness, it should not be difficult for her to guess that there must be some hidden matters. But she didn’t think much about it. In her opinion, she had to quickly improve the relationship between Yang Ming and Zhao Ying, and then enter the private room to talk about other stuff.
“I’m okay… I’m just a little unwell…” Zhao Ying smiled reluctantly, “I’m dizzy. Why don’t you eat first? I’ll just go back first…”
“How can that be? Since you’re here, it’s not too late to sit for a while, right? Moreover, you were okay just now, so why are you suddenly unwell?” Sun Jie was a little suspicious. Then, she suddenly thought of something and said, “Are you angry with Yang Ming? Yang Ming, can you quickly apologize to Zhao Ying? Do you want to have s*x tonight?”
Sun Jie reached out and pinched a handful of soft skin on Yang Ming’s waist, making him almost scream out. Fortunately, Yang Ming’s ability to withstand pain was strong, so he wasn’t embarrassed.
“This…” Yang Ming was awkward for a while and even sweated after hearing Sun Jie’s words. Isn’t this making my life difficult?
“It’s okay, it has nothing to do with him. It’s because I’m suddenly unwell. Little Jie, it’s fine.” Zhao Ying waved to Sun Jie and rejected her kindness. She couldn’t help but feel bitter.
“Little Jie, Sister Ying, let’s go into the room and talk. It is not convenient to speak in the corridor.” Yang Ming gritted his teeth. Since it is my business, then I have to solve it!
Judging from Zhao Ying’s current reaction, she obviously did not want Sun Jie to know that she and Yang Ming knew each other. So in order to avoid awkwardness, she wanted to use the excuse that she wasn’t feeling well to leave.
Yang Ming was obviously clear about this. But if Yang Ming just let Zhao Ying go, was he still a man? Honestly, he could never do this kind of thing, and he didn’t want to do it!
If he let Zhao Ying leave while feeling lonely today, the damage to her heart mind could be imagined. How could he face Zhao Ying in the future?
So Yang Ming decided to assume responsibility. Anyway, he had to give Sun Jie and Zhao Ying an explanation today.
Hearing that Yang Ming called Zhao Ying as “Sister Ying”, Sun Jie looked at Yang Ming then at Zhao Ying suspiciously. She secretly guessed something. Is this not the first time they are meeting? Could there be a conflict between them?
“I…” Hearing Yang Ming calling her “Sister Ying” in front of Sun Jie, Zhao Ying’s heart softened…
“It just so happens that I want to hear Yang Ming’s explanation!” Although Sun Jie was puzzled, she still dragged Zhao Ying into the private room and closed the door.
Chapter 1718: Explain Frankly
Fan Jinzhe hurriedly followed Sun Jie and Zhao Ying and ran into the Song Jiang International Hotel’s lobby. It just so happened that he saw Sun Jie and Zhao Ying enter the elevator, so he quickly found the greeter who had just spoken to them. He asked, “I was with the two ladies just now. Where did they go?”
Fan Jinzhe saw that Sun Jie and Zhao Ying went upstairs instead of dining on the first-floor lobby. Apparently, they had reserved a private room, so Fan Jinzhe was a little bit anxious. If he were a step slower, he would have lost them.
“Together? May I ask who you are…” The greeter glanced at Fan Jinzhe in confusion and thought. If they are together, why didn’t they come together? Instead, he hurriedly followed them from behind? Is there any problem? So, instead of directly telling the whereabouts of Sun Jie and Zhao Ying, she asked about Fan Jinzhe’s identity instead.
“I’m their driver. I just parked the car before I ran in,” Fan Jinzhe smiled at the greeter and explained.
“So you are their driver!” The greeter nodded suddenly, “There is no problem since you are their driver. They went to Private Room 307 on the third floor.”
Fan Jinzhe’s explanation was in line with the current situation, so the greeter had no doubts and directly told him the whereabouts of Sun Jie and Zhao Ying.
“Okay, thank you.” Fan Jinzhe nodded and quickly entered another elevator.
After he kept praying for the elevator to move faster, the elevator finally stopped slowly on the third floor. Fan Jinzhe rushed out of the elevator in a brisk stride and was relieved when he looked around! He had seen Sun Jie and Zhao Ying’s figures!
He saw that Sun Jie and Zhao Ying were standing in front of a private room door. They knocked twice, the door opened, and a man came out. He hugged Sun Jie, and after exchanging a few words, they entered the private room.
Because Fan Jinzhe was far away, he couldn’t hear what they were talking about.
“It turns out that Little Miss Sun came to meet her boyfriend. No wonder she was so obstinate. It turns out she is taken!” Fan Jinzhe secretly thought that he was fortunate for not pursuing Sun Jie as there would be no results!
After seeing Sun Jie’s sports car, Fan Jinzhe had a certain understanding of Sun Jie’s family history. Then, as Sun Jie’s boyfriend could book a private room at the Song Jiang International Hotel, he must also be a match with Sun Jie’s family background. Fan Jinzhe couldn’t reach this level.
But why would Sun Jie bring Zhao Ying on her date? Fan Jinzhe was immediately annoyed with Sun Jie. She brought a third-wheeler with her on her date. Isn’t that looking for trouble?
Could there be anyone else in the private room? Fan Jinzhe didn’t dare to go up and knock on the door at this moment. After all, they had already entered the private room. It was possible to meet by chance in the lobby, but they would be a little suspicious that he was following them if he went to meet them “by chance” in the private room!
Also, it was hard to say that there were only three people in the room. What if there were other people? So Fan Jinzhe decided to wait and observe the situation before taking any further actions.
After Yang Ming entered the private room, he looked at Sun Jie, then at Zhao Ying. He sighed, “Little Jie, sit down with Sister Ying. Since everyone is here, there is something that we should make clear.”
“I… I don’t want to listen. I’ll go back first…” Zhao Ying, who was a little nervous and flushed, wanted to stand up and run away.
“Sister Ying, don’t go!” Yang Ming blocked Zhao Ying and stopped her resolutely.
Sun Jie also grabbed Zhao Ying’s hand, “Zhao Ying, what’s up? it’s not too late to leave after listening to Yang Ming.”
Zhao Ying felt that it couldn’t be helped. She sighed quietly and sat back on the sofa.
“Sister Ying, you texted me before and asked if I had time to go out for dinner at night. It was about this dinner, right?” Yang Ming was afraid that Zhao Ying would do something else so he asked directly.
In this way, since it had been said out loud, Zhao Ying could not escape even if she wanted to hide.
“This…” Zhao Ying lowered her head. Since Yang Ming said these words, he definitely wanted to disclose their ambiguous relationship. It made Zhao Ying feel a little awkward, especially in front of Sun Jie.
After Sun Jie heard Yang Ming’s words, she was slightly stunned at first, but immediately realized why Yang Ming and Zhao Ying had such expressions when they met. She also understood the relationship between the two!
So the so-called sweetheart that Zhao Ying mentioned is actually Yang Ming! Zhao Ying invited Yang Ming to meet her friends, but Yang Ming declined because he had already agreed to have dinner with me in advance. However, he could not push aside Zhao Ying’s request afterward, so he agreed to show up at the dinner.
But although he agreed to show up, there was already no need for it. Everyone is together now!
Thinking of what Zhao Ying had told her before, Sun Jie sighed secretly. What’s so good about Yang Ming? Why do so many people like him?
However, Sun Jie had no other thoughts, nor was she jealous. Sun Jie was a proud woman. In her opinion, her boyfriend must be better than her and others.
Yang Ming fulfilled this criteria, so Sun Jie chose to be with Yang Ming. Since she chose Yang Ming, she didn’t care or even think about the other women in Yang Ming’s life.
She had this kind of personality. Hence, when she knew that Xiao Qing also had a relationship with Yang Ming, not only did she not show any resentment and hatred, but she also gladly accepted it.
As a result, Sun Jie didn’t plan to intervene at this moment, but had an indifferent look as she looked at Yang Ming and Zhao Ying.
“Because I had an appointment with Little Jie, I rejected the offer by text. However, when you said that we’ll be eating at the Song Jiang International Hotel, it just so happened that we would be in the same place. It would not be hard for me to visit for a while, so I agreed…” Yang Ming continued. “However, I really didn’t expect that you are the beautiful female classmate that Little Jie mentioned.”
“Yang Ming… You don’t need to talk about it… I guessed it already…” Zhao Ying was a little embarrassed when she heard what Yang Ming said to Sun Jie.
“But Little Jie doesn’t know. I have to explain to her too,” said Yang Ming.
“I guessed it too. There is no need to explain.” Sun Jie looked at Yang Ming and smiled. “We are good students and exceptionally intelligent. You’re the only fool who keeps talking.”
“Then…” Yang Ming scratched his head. Fortunately, Yang Ming’s face was thick, so it didn’t matter. “Then let’s not talk about this… Sister Ying, Little Jie and I have known each other since long ago. We became a couple that summer vacation after the college entrance exam.”
Sun Jie heard Yang Ming shift the beginning of their relationship to an earlier date and could not help but to roll her eyes at Yang Ming. But she did not refute it. In fact, Yang Ming was incorrect. They had just had their first time on that date.
“Little Jie… Sister Ying and I have known each other for a long time…” Yang Ming again explained to Sun Jie.
“I know. She was your teacher and you were her student.” Sun Jie had heard Zhao Ying talk about the past. “But it’s fine, it’s not like this now. Both of you are classmates now. There is no fault in this.”
Zhao Ying didn’t expect that Sun Jie would say these words. Her face flushed like a ripe apple, “Little Jie, don’t talk nonsense…”
“I’m not talking nonsense. Yang Ming, am I wrong?” Sun Jie asked Yang Ming.
“Yeah… I want to talk about that too,” Yang Ming nodded. “Alright, the misunderstanding and the cause of this matter have been cleared up. I hope it will not affect your friendship.”
