Chapter 484: Chapter 484: Girlfriends Matter More
"Let’s go, I’ll take you to eat first, and then we’ll drive to the outskirts for a spin."
Yang Cheng said, holding her hand as they walked towards the parking lot.
The atmosphere between them grew more and more ambiguous, and it truly felt a bit like they were a young couple.
Seeing that Kong Lingwen offered no resistance, Yang Cheng felt delighted inside, thinking maybe they’d have an unexpected gain during the drive to the outskirts!
Soon, they arrived at a newly opened garden restaurant in Peach Blossom County.
This restaurant had a very unique decor style. Though it was indoors, it had small bridges over flowing water and all sorts of flowers and plants, making it feel like camping.
It offered scenic enjoyment without worrying about wind or rain, coupled with lighting effects, making it ideal for couple dates.
As soon as they reached the entrance, a waiter enthusiastically approached to guide them to their seats.
"You booked a table already?"
Kong Lingwen was a bit surprised.
"Yes! I heard this place is great for couples to date, so I booked it in the morning."
To win her heart, Yang Cheng specifically called Lu Kun and eventually booked this restaurant.
As soon as they entered, they felt a different atmosphere, dining in such an environment would surely enhance their relationship remarkably.
Just as they sat down, exquisite dishes were laid out on the table.
Kong Lingwen was a career woman, often too busy to even have lunch, and it was her first time in such a romantic restaurant.
She cut a piece of steak and put it in her mouth, chewing gracefully.
"There’s some sauce on the corner of your mouth."
Yang Cheng reached out and wiped a bit of sauce from the corner of her mouth.
Compared to the steamy scenes at the office earlier, this action was nothing, yet Kong Lingwen’s heart was pounding fast.
At that moment, a sweet voice suddenly came from behind: "Yang Cheng?"
Yang Cheng instinctively turned around, seeing two young and beautiful girls. The one speaking had bright eyes and white teeth, a cute appearance, but a very full figure.
He thought for a moment and suddenly remembered someone, and asked, "Are you Miss Tao?"
"It’s me!"
Qian Qian approached with a cheerful smile, glanced at Kong Lingwen, and said somewhat jealously, "This is your girlfriend, right? So when you said you had something and couldn’t meet, it was because you had a date!"
"Sorry, my girlfriend and I planned this a few days ago."
If it weren’t for her familiar voice, Yang Cheng wouldn’t have thought of the girl before him, with skin like jade, as the scar-faced Qian Qian.
"I see! Well, of course, a girlfriend is important, but there’s no more room in the restaurant, can we join your table?"
Qian Qian smiled sweetly, looking adorable.
During this time, she had been thinking about Yang Cheng, but due to the scars on her face not healing, she hadn’t called to ask him out.
Once her face fully recovered, her skin as tender as a peeled egg, she couldn’t wait to dial Yang Cheng’s number.
"I’ve invited you twice already, don’t refuse me, okay?"
Qian Qian grabbed his arm and shook it gently a couple of times.
A girl’s plea is always hard to refuse, but Yang Cheng didn’t immediately agree. Instead, he looked at Kong Lingwen, silently asking her opinion.
"Please, beautiful sister, let us join your table."
Qian Qian’s eyes sparkled, and her voice was very sweet.
In the end, Kong Lingwen couldn’t resist her gentle approach and nodded helplessly: "Let’s eat together then."
"Great!"
Qian Qian pulled her friend to sit down, and Yang Cheng stood up to make space for them, sitting next to Kong Lingwen instead.
"Yang Cheng, your girlfriend is so pretty, but she looks familiar, like I’ve seen her somewhere before."
Qian Qian propped her chin up, scrutinizing Kong Lingwen’s face, feeling a sense of familiarity.
Upon hearing this, Kong Lingwen’s heart skipped a beat. She suddenly recalled going to the Tao Family with Yang Cheng before.
But at that time, she was dressed as a man, and now even though in women’s clothes, her face hadn’t changed.
Seeing Kong Lingwen a bit tense, Yang Cheng immediately spoke up to help: "Maybe my girlfriend just resembles a celebrity, so she seems familiar to you."
"Maybe."
Qian Qian didn’t think that was the case, but after thinking for a long time, she couldn’t remember where she’d seen the woman in front of her.
While chatting with her friend, she occasionally gave Yang Cheng and Kong Lingwen a scrutinizing look.
Their claim of being a couple didn’t quite match; there was always an air of unfamiliarity and unease about the woman.
"Yang Cheng, you guys aren’t really a couple, are you!"
"Why do you ask this?"
Yang Cheng raised an eyebrow, looking at her curiously.
"Couples in love are usually inseparable, but you two seem like you’ve just met. During the meal, you didn’t talk much, nor did you show any intimate gestures."
"You’re not making this up, pretending to be a couple to turn me down, right?"
Qian Qian straightforwardly laid it out, looking at them with suspicion.
She liked Yang Cheng and wanted to date him. With her looks and background, most men wouldn’t refuse.
But Yang Cheng was different. Not only did he directly turn down her invitation, but he also found a fake girlfriend to brush her off.
Her heart was a little angry, feeling her dignity was trampled, but at the same time she felt unsatisfied, even more determined to win Yang Cheng over.
There was something free-spirited about him, exuding natural confidence as if there was nothing he couldn’t handle.
After just one encounter, she was deeply enamored with this man, seeing his face in her dreams every night.
"Impossible, we are indeed a couple, just newly in love, so my girlfriend is a bit shy."
Yang Cheng chuckled and wrapped his arm around Kong Lingwen’s shoulder.
In full view, this intimate gesture made Kong Lingwen uncomfortable, and she wore an awkward smile.
Such an expression only confirmed Qian Qian’s suspicions.
Just then, cheers erupted in the distance, and someone with a microphone took to the stage.
"Hello everyone, I’m the owner of the garden restaurant. Our restaurant just opened, and I’m delighted to see so many customers, mostly couples, so I’ve decided to host a little event."
"Couples, compete in a challenge. Whoever wins first place gets a diamond necklace I’ve cherished, and I hope everyone will participate actively!"
Upon hearing this, the crowd erupted, all eager to join.
It’s not just about the diamond necklace but also proving their love is strong and committed.
Qian Qian’s eyes lit up, smiling as she said: "If you truly are a couple, then join the challenge. If you win first place, I’ll believe you."
Normally, Yang Cheng would refuse such a mundane challenge, but today his goal was to bond with Kong Lingwen, so participating in the event was just what he wanted.
