Starting Check-in Reward: Tomson Riviera Chapter 50 - 49: You Can’t Trust a Woman’s Words [1]

And just after Luo Yue finished the cup of tea.

One second, two seconds, three seconds passed...

Her eyes suddenly lit up!

Based on her past experiences with tea, Luo Yue had never been interested in it.

’It’s so bitter. How can it be better than soda?’

But the tea Ye Ling had brewed was sweet—not the cloying sweetness of artificial sweeteners, but a light, natural sweetness.

The first sip was light and sweet. As she slowly swallowed, the fresh aroma of the herbal tea filled her mouth and sinuses, making her want to close her eyes and savor the experience.

This was an experience no store-bought beverage could ever offer!

"So, how is it?"

Seeing the look of pure bliss on Luo Yue’s face, Ye Ling couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow and ask.

Luo Yue snapped back to reality, smacking her lips. "Hmm, it’s not bad... But you’ll have to try harder if you want to truly satisfy ."

’Now she rembered. Hadn’t she said that if his tea was good enough to satisfy her, she would have to call him ’Daddy’?’

’Even though she was incredibly satisfied with this tea—so much so that she thought it was even better than soda!—there was no way she was calling this scoundrel ’Daddy’!’

"Now you’re just going back on your word."

Ye Ling rolled his eyes, speechless.

"Blehh. Don’t you know you can’t believe a word a woman says?"

Luo Yue made a face at Ye Ling as she spoke, her expression mischievous.

"Honey, what do you think?"

Ye Ling pursed his lips, then turned to Ning Ruoxi.

A small smile on her lips, Ning Ruoxi took another delicate sip and nodded. "Yes, it’s wonderful."

"Then I’ll make tea for you every day. How does that sound?"

"Mhm."

A gentle smile imdiately graced Ning Ruoxi’s lips once more.

It was a smile she reserved only for Ye Ling.

"BOO HOO HOO, there they go again, torturing us singles!"

Luo Yue pouted, aggrieved. Those two, Ye Ling and Ning Ruoxi, were getting more and more shaless, constantly flaunting their relationship in front of her!

"Alright, alright. Don’t be mad, Yueyue. I’ll try to be more careful next ti."

Hearing this, Ning Ruoxi helplessly tried to comfort her best friend.

’She and Ye Ling really had been a little too public with their affection lately. It must be hard on the poor girl...’

"Hmph! You don’t sound very sincere."

Luo Yue wrinkled her nose, clearly unconvinced.

Ning Ruoxi spread her hands in resignation. "Then what do you want to do?"

"Hehe, how about we all go to the beach tonight?"

Luo Yue suggested, her eyes glinting mischievously.

’The beach?’

Hearing the suggestion, Ning Ruoxi thought about it for a mont. It wasn’t a bad idea.

Besides, she realized that ever since returning to Modu, she hadn’t really gone out anywhere, mostly just staying ho.

"Should we go?"

Ning Ruoxi looked to Ye Ling, her gaze asking for his opinion.

Ye Ling smiled. "If my dear wants to go, then let’s go."

’Walking shoulder to shoulder with Ning Ruoxi on a sandy beach...’ he thought. ’That actually sounds pretty nice.’

’Not bad. Luo Yue actually ca up with a good idea for once.’

"It’s still early. I’ll cook us a al, and we can head out after we eat?"

Ye Ling suggested with a small smile.

"Aweso!"

Ning Ruoxi and Luo Yue exclaid in unison.

Although Yueyue was still holding a grudge about Ye Ling’s "A-grade panda" comnt from before, she decided to ’forgive’ him for the sake of a good al~

It had to be said, Ye Ling was an excellent cook. For the entire ti the two won had been staying there, they had eaten his cooking almost exclusively, save for the occasional takeout. Even now, neither of them had grown tired of it.

And so, Ning Ruoxi went back to revising her drafts for the art exhibition, Luo Yue played with Zhao Cai, and Ye Ling got started on dinner in the kitchen.

They say the way to a woman’s heart is through her stomach, and Ye Ling had taken that saying to heart.

Lately, in addition to his usual ho-style cooking, he had also been learning so new recipes.

Today, for instance, Ye Ling made Sour and Spicy Boneless Chicken Feet, Golden Cola Chicken Wings, Hangzhou Pepper Beef Tenderloin, Vinegar-Sautéed Cabbage, Tomato and Egg Drop Soup, and a large dish of Shrimp and Cheese Baked Rice.

By the ti Ye Ling was done, the sky had gradually darkened. Before they knew it, it was almost six or seven in the evening.

"Whoa, this beef tenderloin is delicious!"

Luo Yue, leaning over the table, picked up a piece of at with her chopsticks, her eyes instantly lighting up.

"Hey, didn’t soone just say they were going to be my sworn enemy?"

Ye Ling said with a smirk, looking at her reaction.

Luo Yue’s eyes went wide with feigned surprise. "Who would be so blind! Our dear Brother Ling is so handso. Who would want to be his sworn enemy?"

"PFFT—"

Ye Ling, who had just taken a sip of the tomato and egg drop soup, sprayed it all out upon hearing her words.

Seeing this, Ning Ruoxi sighed helplessly and handed Ye Ling a napkin.

’She had grown numb to her best friend’s antics.’

"COUGH, COUGH."

As Ye Ling wiped his mouth, he stared at Luo Yue, his expression a sight to behold.

’Fine!’

’You’re sothing else!’

At that mont, Ye Ling had to admit complete defeat to this mischievous little imp.

’She’s so shaless she’ll even throw her past self under the bus!’

After dinner, Ye Ling drove the two won from Tomson Riviera. Since his Pagani only had two seats, he took Ning Ruoxi’s Porsche Cayenne instead.

"Looks like it’s ti for to get a different car. The Pagani’s interior is too cramped, and it’s not very comfortable to drive."

Ye Ling remarked with a sigh, steering with one hand.

He had been driving a Pagani Zonda R recently, but this world-renowned supercar didn’t get a very high score from him.

’In fact, he thought it wasn’t even as comfortable as this Porsche Cayenne...’

Supercars certainly looked cool, but driving them was a real pain in the back. Ye Ling was now considering getting a Maybach or a Bentley.

When they arrived at the beach, Ye Ling parked the car and they all got out.

The weather was nice that evening, so the beach was quite crowded. Among the people, there were a number of internet celebrities holding selfie sticks and livestreaming.

Ye Ling walked ahead, strolling casually along the sand, with Ning Ruoxi and Luo Yue following behind him.

The evening sea breeze washed away the day’s heat. The endless ocean, reflecting the lights from the shoreline buildings, looked especially enchanting.

As they walked, at so point, Ning Ruoxi found herself walking shoulder to shoulder with Ye Ling.

Luo Yue, on the other hand, had been left behind.

When Luo Yue finally snapped out of her daze and noticed, she looked at the pair ahead of her and pouted, her face a mask of grievance.

’You promised you were coming out to have fun with , but here you are, ganging up on again!’
