Chapter 433 - Conflict

A middle-aged man wanted to find fault with Gu Yan. He said, “I want a cup of hot coffee.”

Gu Yan immediately served him a cup of hot coffee. Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man complained, “It is too hot. How can I drink it? What’s wrong with you!”

Gu Yan apologized at once, “I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. I’ll change it right away.” Gu Yan took the coffee away, changed a warm one and served it to him.

She thought it would be fine this time, but the man shouted again, “It is too cold! Who can drink it? Do you know how to make coffee? I would smash your shop!”

Gu Yan apologized again, “I’m sorry. I’m really sorry. I will make a new cup of coffee for you immediately.”

Mo Yichen, bored, couldn’t control his temper when he saw this scene. It was his girl who was bullied. He rushed to the middle-aged man’s table and cursed, “Why do you have so many complaints? Is it interesting to find fault with others? I don’t think you are here to drink coffee, but to find fault!”

The middle-aged man was unhappy when he heard what Mo Yichen said. He answered immediately, “This is none of your business!”

“Drink, or get out! Don’t affect others.” Mo Yichen said to the man.

“Who do you think you are? Don’t pretend to be a gentleman. Ah, I see. You must take a fancy to her!” The man stood up and looked at Mo Yichen. At this time, the customers around were also looking at Mo Yichen.

When Mo Yichen heard the man’s words, he suddenly became furious. No one dared to say to him in this way before. He was about to argue with the man but was stopped by Gu Yan.

Gu Yan quickly said to the middle-aged man, “Sorry, I’m so sorry. I’ll change it for you right away. Please don’t be angry. Forgive what he said.”

She took the coffee on the table and changed another cup. The middle-aged man didn’t find fault this time. Maybe he had no interest now because of Mo Yichen.

Gu Yan apologized, “I’m really sorry for ruining your mood today. This cup of coffee is on me. Please receive my apology.” The man nodded approval.

As the man said nothing, Gu Yan took Mo Yichen out of the dessert shop. Mo Yichen thought that Gu Yan was finally willing to listen to his explanation. He was very happy.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they left the shop, Gu Yan said, “Can you stop making trouble? I need to work. I don’t want to lose my job.”

Mo Yichen said to Gu Yan, “I’m not making trouble. That man bullied you. I can’t bear it.” After hearing these words, Gu Yan knew that Mo Yichen only wanted to protect her.

However, she couldn’t reveal her thoughts. She just said, “This is my job. I have no right to blame the customers.”

Mo Yichen said, “Then just quit the job. Come home with me. I’ll protect you well and you won’t get hurt again. I promise. I really can’t bear to see you suffering.”

Gu Yan said to Mo Yichen, “I don’t think I was suffering. On the contrary, I like working here, because I can meet all kinds of people and gain a lot every day. Please just leave. I won’t go back with you, so don’t come again.”

Gu Yan then walked into the shop without looking back, leaving Mo Yichen alone. She didn’t want to hurt Mo Yichen in this way, but she had no other choice.

Seeing Gu Yan walking into the shop, Mo Yichen felt sad. Although he was rejected by Gu Yan every day in the past few days, he was still very sad at the moment.

He had done so many things to make Gu Yan change her mind, but she seemed to have made up her mind not to go back with him. Mo Yichen didn’t know how to change Gu Yan’s mind now. He really didn’t understand why she suddenly changed so much.

Mo Yichen was shrewd on many things but dull when facing problems about love. He didn’t understand girls’ minds, and didn’t know how to deal with these problems.

Mo Yichen could only decide to visit Gu Yan every day. He didn’t believe that she was so cruel to reject him all the time. He felt that one day Gu Yan would change her mind.

Mo Yichen walked back to the hotel as he thought. Arriving at the hotel, he suddenly had a stomachache. He thought, “It must be because of the cold drinks.”

Suffering from the pain in much of the night, Mo Yichen felt weak and exhausted. He finally lay on the bed and was able to rest for a while.

After returning home, Gu Yan finished washing and lay on the bed, thinking about Mo Yichen. She worried if he was fine after having so much drinks today, but she couldn’t ask him. Otherwise, he would know that she was worried about him.

In fact, Gu Yan was quite happy that Mo Yichen got her out of trouble today, but she couldn’t show her feelings to him. It was really uncomfortable. After hiding her emotion for so many days, Gu Yan felt that she could not insist anymore. It was really uncomfortable.

Gu Yan shook her head and forced herself to stop thinking of Mo Yichen. She turned over and fell asleep.

The next morning, Mo Yichen got up early. He didn’t sleep well last night and felt exhausted. However, he forced himself to get up because he wanted to see Gu Yan today.

Mo Yichen struggled to wash his face, brush his teeth, and get dressed. Even if he was uncomfortable, he still wanted to see Gu Yan. He walked out of the hotel and went to the dessert shop.

However, when Mo Yichen arrived at the dessert shop, he realized that it hadn’t opened yet. He decided to wait at the door because he wanted to see Gu Yan as early as possible and get the chance to speak with her.

After Mo Yichen waited for a long time, Gu Yan finally came. She was heartbroken when seeing Mo Yichen’s pale face. What she worried about yesterday happened.

Gu Yan wanted to ask Mo Yichen if he was fine, but she controlled herself again. She had made up her mind not to give Mo Yichen any hope, and she had to control herself. Therefore, she pretended that she was nonchalant.

Mo Yichen was too weak now. Seeing Gu Yan coming, he managed to force a smile. He said, “I have been waiting for you for a long time, and you are finally here. Can I talk to you?”

Mo Yichen’s weak voice and pale face made Gu Yan heartbroken, but she couldn’t take care of him.

However, Gu Yan still pretended not to hear Mo Yichen’s words. She opened the door and walked in, as if she didn’t see Mo Yichen.

Seeing that Gu Yan ignored him and walked into the shop, Mo Yichen followed her into the shop.
