The Beloved and Pampered Girl

Chapter 1426: Chapter 1426: This Is the Truth

"Fang Yuan, you didn’t eat anything just now. Do you want to join us for a bite?" Jian Dan said to Fang Yuan as they left the restaurant.

"No need, it’s getting late. I have to go back; I still have work tomorrow."

"Alright then! See you!"

"Goodbye~"

Watching Jian Dan’s retreating figure, Fang Yuan’s expression was one of desolation. This might really be goodbye...

"What do you feel like eating?"

"Hotpot!"

"Aren’t you afraid of getting fat from eating hotpot so late?"

"It’s fine, since Uncle doesn’t mind if I do!"

"You little lass, alright! Let’s go have hotpot!"

...

"Hmm! Now this is real food!"

"Did you know beforehand that it would turn out like this?" Chu Liyuan asked Jian Dan without picking up his chopsticks.

"I did guess it would be a setup, but I didn’t expect it to be quite like this!"

"Then why did you go?"

"Since they just wanted to make me look foolish, wouldn’t I be admitting defeat if I didn’t go? I am Uncle’s wife, after all. How could I even have the word ’coward’ in my dictionary?"

"I thought you went to meet that classmate called Fang Yuan?"

"Ah?"

"He likes you?"

"Uncle, you saw through it?"

Chu Liyuan’s eyes narrowed dangerously.

"Uncle, I swear I really didn’t know he was coming back today, and it’s even less possible that I came because of him! And I only found out today that he likes me, really!" Jian Dan said, raising one hand to her head as a promise.

"Now that you know, you still invited him to have dinner together just now?"

"That was just me being polite! After all, we’re classmates, and he was the only person who stood by my side today. I guessed he wouldn’t come back!"

"Seems like you know him quite well! You know what’s in his heart?"

"We were classmates for four years, weren’t we?"

"Oh! So your relationship was good even back then!"

"Uncle, why are you suddenly like this?"

"I’m just not pleased!"

"So you can’t get over it, is that it?"

"Making me get over it is simple." Chu Liyuan pulled Jian Dan over, making her sit on his lap "Mmm~" as he watched Jian Dan pouting her lips.

Jian Dan laughed at Chu Liyuan’s expression at the moment, "Uncle, how can you be so cute? You’re so adorable, how could I bear to like anyone else?" Jian Dan cupped Chu Liyuan’s cheeks in her hands, and the red lips slowly moved closer...

"Uncle, isn’t it strange? Other people’s relationships fade over time, slowly turning into familial love, but we’ve been together for so long, and there’s no sign of fading at all, is there?"

"We will never fade, because I won’t allow it! And between us, it can only be romance."

"Yes, yes, yes! It’s each other’s one and only... romance!"

Chu Liyuan clasped Jian Dan’s neck, and the red lips moved in once more.

Returning to Li Garden, Chu Liyuan naturally wouldn’t let Jian Dan off easily, causing her, who was supposed to get up early, to oversleep again.

Today, she had an appointment to get the medical results, so Jian Dan hurried out right after waking up without even having time for breakfast...

"Why are you panting like that?" Sizhe asked while holding the report, looking at Jian Dan’s breathless state.

"I woke up late! I didn’t want to delay your work!"

"Woke up late?"

"Yeah!"

"I understand, I understand~" Sizhe said with a teasing tone.

"Understand what?"

"Nothing, nothing! Here’s the report!" Sizhe handed the document in his hand over to Jian Dan.

Jian Dan hesitated before accepting the document from Sizhe’s hand.

"Alright, I’m going back to work. There’s a surgery this morning!"

After Sizhe left, Jian Dan looked at the yellow envelope in her hand, feeling extremely nervous.

This is the truth!
