Chapter 33 - Cute? This Is Called Stupid

“Cough cough. If you want to be with her, I can turn a blind eye. It doesn’t matter.”

How’s that?

Wasn’t that righteous of her?

Sacrificing her life over her principles?

But she didn’t know which of her words had aggravated the other man as his gaze became several times icier than earlier, his cold voice accompanying a gust of chilly wind…

“If you say a word more, I will drop you down right now!”

Yan Nian: “…”

Wasn’t it every man’s dream to be able to have his wife and still have some lovers outside?

What was he angry about?

She really didn’t understand.

…

Yan Nian thought about it for a day, but she still didn’t get what Jiang Beiyuan was angry about.

This question was even harder than a high school mathematical problem.

She was relieved that he had not mentioned anything about the body offering, but since their return last night, he had not spoken to her the entire day.

He left right after eating the breakfast she had made this morning, without even a greeting. He wasn’t like this in the past.

Before, even if he really didn’t want to see her, he would still officially say before he left, “Mrs. Jiang, your husband is heading off to work.”

Every time at this moment, Yan Nian felt like she was truly Mrs. Jiang.

Jiang Beiyuan’s Mrs. Jiang.

Not Jiang Beiyuan’s wife-substitute.

“Hey, what are you thinking about?!”

Ding Baoyi snapped her fingers in front of Yan Nian.

She returned to her senses and shook her head, claiming that it was nothing.

It wasn’t good for her to space out just because of a man.

She didn’t like being the anxious and worried person she was now.

Therefore, she smacked her face to jump-start her soul once again!

“Let’s eat! Did you order my favorite deep-fried breadsticks?”

Heh, Ding Baoyi rolled her eyes silently. “Once we are done with this meal, our friendship is over.”

They were here to have Western cuisine, yet Yan Nian was asking her to order a plate of deep-fried breadsticks and raw vegetables.

Yan Nian loved to eat deep-fried breadsticks rolled up in vegetables, with a dab of garlic. It was out-of-this-world delicious.

Due to her appendicitis, she wasn’t allowed to eat garlic. However, just deep-fried breadsticks rolled up in raw vegetables were great too.

As long as she could eat her favorite deep-fried breadsticks, she would forget about all her worries.

“It’s delicious. Here, have one too!”

Yan Nian wrapped a breadstick with raw vegetables and tried to feed Ding Baoyi.

The other party rejected it resolutely, asking her to scram.

Sitting beside Ding Baoyi was her current boyfriend, who was working as a flight attendant. He looked rather decent. Smiling at Yan Nian, he said, “Your best friend is rather cute.”

“Cute? Please, this is called stupid, alright?!”

The other party only smiled in response, but his eyes continued to glance at Yan Nian from time to time with a peculiar radiance in them.

When they were done with their meal, the three of them headed off to watch a show.

Yan Nian sat on the left while Ding Baoyi sat in the middle, with her boyfriend on the right.

It was a huge 9D science fiction show. But even with the special effects flying right at her face, Yan Nian didn’t even blink at them as she watched the show numbly.

Was she crazy?

What was wrong with her today?

Why was her mind all about Jiang Beiyuan!

His face, his expression, even his low and magnetic voice were playing in her head, as if she had been possessed.

No, no. She wanted to turn back into the heartless Yan Nian that she once was!

“Ah, I need to use the washroom. I will be back in a bit.”

Ding Baoyi stood up and turned on the screen of her phone to shine on the dark floor.

Yan Nian was not interested in the movie and, thus, she wanted to shift her attention away from it. She stood up as well as she said, “I’ll accompany you.”

“What’s the point of accompanying me? We are no longer high school students.”

That was true.

When they were in high school, the girls always went to the washroom in groups of two or three. It was as if going to the bathroom alone was a huge crime.

Ding Baoyi walked off while Yan Nian sat back down and locked her eyes on the movie screen.

Out of nowhere, a hand began to touch the back of her hand.
