Chapter 65: Chapter 65: The Secret That Cannot Be Spoken Out Loud Chapter 65: Chapter 65: The Secret That Cannot Be Spoken Out Loud Saying this, Lin Wei took over from Jiang Yurou and began to skillfully barbecue the skewers.
Before long, the delicious grilled skewers were ready.
Xinan picked one up, took a bite, and couldn’t help but praise, “Weiwei, these are so delicious, they’re not any worse than the ones sold outside.”
Hearing Xinan say this, Jiang Yurou and Tan Bo also started to taste them, and after finishing, they couldn’t stop singing their praises.
Having received everyone’s complints, Lin Wei smiled and said, “What else do you guys want to eat? I’ll grill it for you.”
Xinan said, “That would be too much trouble.”
“It’s no problem,” Lin Wei said. “I’m free anyway.”
“Then I’ll have to trouble you.”
“It’s no big deal.”
So, Lin Wei got busy once again.
Soon, a plate of kebabs was ready, and everyone sat together, eating and chatting in a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere.
However, as the conversation went on, Xinan realized she hadn’t taken out the wine she bought yesterday, and she went inside with Jiang Yurou to get it.
Just at that mont, Cheng Yi ca back.
Xinan and Jiang Yurou were preparing the fruit platter when they heard the door open and looked up, “Cheng Yi, you’re back?”
Cheng Yi walked to the shoe cabinet to change shoes: “Hmm.”
Seeing that Xinan and the others were busy, he went upstairs to change into casual clothes, then walked back into the kitchen.
Xinan handed him the wine: “Brother Tan Bo and the others are in the backyard, take the wine to them first.”
Cheng Yi asked, “They?”
Xinan nodded, “Yes, because Lin Wei is in Jing City by herself without any friends, so I invited her over as well.”
Xinan thought Cheng Yi had t Lin Wei before and figured he wouldn’t mind.
But seeing the cold expression on Cheng Yi’s face, Xinan hesitated and asked, “Is sothing… wrong?”
The expression on Cheng Yi’s face quickly returned to calm, and he took the bottle of wine: “It’s nothing, I’ll go over now.”
“Alright.”
As soon as Cheng Yi stepped into the backyard, he was greeted by a strong sll of barbecue and the pungent odor of smoke.
He frowned slightly and followed the sll until he indeed saw Tan Bo sitting on a chair smoking, and Lin Wei grilling at.
“Yo, the busy man is back!” Tan Bo greeted Cheng Yi with a smile, lifting the corners of his mouth as he saw him.
Cheng Yi ignored him and went straight to the barbecue table, where he placed the wine.
Lin Wei also turned around, her eyes lighting up when she saw Cheng Yi.
Today, he wasn’t wearing a suit but donned a black cross-collar knitted cardigan sweater, topped with a gray mid-length straight coat with a single row of buttons.
This attire was completely different from the cold, serious, and unsmiling man she rembered – they were like two different people!
But at that mont, he seed so warm and charming!
Cheng Yi, however, rely gave her a cursory glance and then looked away, his eyes utterly calm, without even a hint of surprise.
Lin Wei’s mood suddenly dipped into disappointnt.
Knowing she might see him today, she had bought new clothes and shoes a few days in advance, got her hair done, and applied what was arguably a perfect makeup.
But he didn’t even care to look her way…
However, Lin Wei quickly collected herself, and just as the skewers were ready, she tentatively asked, “Do you… want so?”
“No need, thank you,” Cheng Yi said indifferently.
But before Lin Wei could respond, Tan Bo stood up, took the barbecued skewers from her hand with a laugh, and said, “If he’s not eating, give it to .”
As he spoke, he glanced at Cheng Yi, “The skewers Lin has grilled are so delicious, it’s a sha you’re not eating them.”
Cheng Yi responded, “Then you eat more.”
Tan Bo: “…”
It wasn’t long before Xinan and Jiang Yurou ca out with a fruit plate, and then everyone gathered the chairs into a circle, starting to eat barbecue and drink.
Regarding last ti Cheng Yi had a stomach ache, Xinan swapped his alcohol for tea.
Tan Bo joked with a smile, “Since when did Ah Yi change his ways and start drinking tea instead of alcohol?”
“His body has been a bit uncomfortable lately,” Xinan explained.
Upon hearing this, Lin Wei’s hand holding her wine glass trembled subconsciously, and then she looked up at Cheng Yi.
Is he sick?
“Well, I was actually planning to drink with him until we got drunk tonight,”
Sighing, Tan Bo continued, “It seems I can only get drunk by myself until dawn now.”
“Enough already, stop with the fake emo act here. If people didn’t know better, they’d think you got dumped!” Jiang Yurou couldn’t help but interject.
Upon hearing that, Tan Bo beca unhappy, and retorted imdiately, “What do you an by that? Even if I experienced a breakup, it would be doing the dumping. When have you ever seen get dumped?”
Jiang Yurou shrugged and said, “Who knows? After all, n always like to say they weren’t the ones who got dumped, acting all deeply in love and such.”
“So from your tone, have you been hurt by a man before?” Tan Bo inquired.
“How could I possibly get hurt by a man!” Jiang Yurou glared at him.
Tan Bo let out a long “Oh” and asked, “Then how do you know so much?”
“None of your damn business,” Jiang Yurou rolled her eyes in response.
Tan Bo chuckled twice before asking, “By the way, Jiang Yurou, I have a question for you. You’ve been overseas for so many years, did you have a boyfriend?”
Jiang Yurou stuffed a piece of grilled at into her mouth, “Of course I did.”
“How many?”
Jiang Yurou actually started counting and finally said, “I’m not clear on the exact number, but there were at least five, six, seven, or eight maybe.”
Hearing Jiang Yurou speak so seriously, Xinan “pfft” laughed out loud, then looked towards her.
Her acting skills were truly wasted on not becoming an actress; she hadn’t had a single boyfriend but could still play the part of a love expert so convincingly.
Jiang Yurou winked at Xinan, hoping she wouldn’t expose her, otherwise, Tan Bo would definitely laugh himself to death.
Then she heard Tan Bo snort and say, “Well, that’s not bad, just a few less than mine by one, two, three, or four.”
Jiang Yurou was utterly speechless.
Xinan was truly on the verge of dying from laughter because of those two, as it seed they were always competing over who had been in more relationships.
“By the way, Weiwei, have you ever been in a relationship?” Jiang Yurou suddenly turned to look at Lin Wei, who was sitting quietly to the side.
Lin Wei paused, and shook her head.
“Oh, oh, could you tell us about the type you like then? I could introduce soone to you~” Jiang Yurou offered very kindly.
The type she liked? Lin Wei glanced at Cheng Yi, a bitter smile flickering across her lips. The person she liked was sitting across from her, but she couldn’t voice it.
“Thank you, but I’m not ready to date right now,” Lin Wei politely declined.
“Well, okay then.” Jiang Yurou also rembered that Lin Wei was a student at the Film Academy, so she would probably enter the entertainnt industry later. Like them, stars, their agencies probably wouldn’t allow them to date.
