The restaurant has a very good ambiance.
After all, it is a French restaurant, so the patrons are of high caliber. Everyone who cos here to dine is a societal figure, either a white-collar worker or even at the executive level. Nobody wants to be seen as lacking manners. Thus, when people dine, they whisper among themselves—nobody disturbs anyone else. Consequently, the restaurant is very quiet and harmonious.
"Sis..." Lin Chuan said with a smile, "This restaurant is not bad."
"Indeed," Tang Yung nodded.
"What do you think of Bai Yifan?" Lin Chuan asked.
"He's a pretty good person," Tang Yung laughed, "Intelligent, capable, and thoughtful. Plus, he's excellent. Lin Chuan, why are you suddenly asking this? Are you jealous? I've told you many tis I won't accept Bai Yifan. He and I are different kinds of people; it's impossible for us to be together."
"Sis and I are also different kinds of people," Lin Chuan said with a smile.
"Are you deliberately trying to annoy ?" Tang Yung glared at Lin Chuan.
"No," Lin Chuan shook his head and asked, "Sis, would Bai Yifan lie to you?"
"No!" Tang Yung shook her head and said, "Although Bai Yifan likes very much and has been actively pursuing , he would never lie to . I firmly believe that."
"What if Bai Yifan did lie to you?" Lin Chuan asked curiously.
"I've said he wouldn't, so how could he lie to ?" Tang Yung glared at Lin Chuan with annoyance.
"I'm just saying, what if," Lin Chuan smiled.
"No ifs. Things that won't happen don't have ifs," Tang Yung seed a bit angry now: "Lin Chuan, although Bai Yifan isn't friendly towards you, please don't judge another's character with your suspicions, alright?"
"Alright, I understand," Lin Chuan nodded and began to eat his al.
It seems that it was indeed impossible to discuss this matter with Tang Yung. From her words, it was clear. Bai Yifan holds a very important place in Tang Yung's heart. She hadn't even considered the possibility of Bai Yifan deceiving her and its consequences.
Maybe, it's because Tang Yung is still too naive. Or maybe, it's because Bai Yifan really does hold a significant place in her heart.
Seeing Lin Chuan's silent deanor, Tang Yung hurriedly asked, "Lin Chuan, what's wrong? Are you angry?"
"No, why would I be angry with you, sis?" Lin Chuan replied with an honest smile.
"But... it looks to like you're angry," Tang Yung pouted and said, "How about a smile then?"
Lin Chuan forced a smile.
"So forced?" Tang Yung blinked, looking very cute and adorable.
"Silly girl, eat up," Lin Chuan genuinely smiled. In this world, if there's a woman willing to act cute to please you, then you should marry her.
Tang Yung is a very serious and proper official. However, in privacy, she can let her hair down, and even act cute to please Lin Chuan. What more could Lin Chuan ask for?
Tang Yung humd, "I am your sister, not your silly girl."
"You are," Lin Chuan looked at Tang Yung seriously and said, "In the eyes of others, you are a stoic woman, an unreachable secretary. But in my eyes, you are just the most precious, the most valuable silly girl to ."
Pfft...
Tang Yung laughed, covering her mouth and said, "Lin Chuan, that's such an overused line, can't you co up with sothing more original? Really."
"Sis, I'm serious," Lin Chuan's expression was solemn.
"Alright, what do you want to say?" Tang Yung set aside her cutlery and said, "I'm listening, you say it."
"I want to say, be my girlfriend," Lin Chuan suddenly stood up, knelt on one knee, and took off a necklace from around his neck, which had a silver tag and a ring attached. He removed the ring and said, "Accept , and I will be good to you for a lifeti. I will never lie to you, I will always protect you. Okay?"
Tang Yung was stunned, she never expected Lin Chuan to be so bold. This was beyond her understanding of him. How could Lin Chuan possibly do this? Where did he find the courage? What gave him the confidence to do this?
"Are you crazy?!" Tang Yung exclaid in shock.
"Sis, I'm not crazy," Lin Chuan said firmly, "I'm serious. I want to protect you for a lifeti. I don't want you to be deceived or bullied by anyone."
"Get up," Tang Yung frowned.
At this mont, many people in the restaurant turned their heads in curiosity to watch, and because everyone was so well-mannered, nobody jeered, they simply watched quietly. They observed the young couple curiously, realizing that love can also be so simple, so romantic. No need for skies of roses or huge diamond rings, just a lingering love talk, a sincere heart kneeling in a proposal.
"Say yes to him," suddenly, a girl whispered.
"Let's be together." Another person shouted.
Then, many people started to shout one after another: "Together, together, together."
"Get up quickly." Tang Yung's face was flushed red, fearing that she would be recognized. It would be so embarrassing if she were recognized.
"If you don't agree, I won't get up." Lin Chuan said firmly.
"Alright, I agree, okay?" Tang Yung said helplessly. Although it felt a bit like coercion, it was still sowhat of a romantic and warm way of proposing. Tang Yung could only reluctantly agree.
Lin Chuan was overjoyed at once, he quickly slipped the ring onto Tang Yung's middle finger, and Lin Chuan said with a smile: "Sis, from today on, you're my woman, my silly girl. You won't be able to run away even if you want to."
"Ah…" Tang Yung played with the ring on her middle finger and said helplessly: "You jerk, I got hooked by just a few words from you. Really, what about a grand, solemn declaration ceremony? There's nothing!"
At this, Tang Yung was clearly a bit frustrated.
"Next ti I propose, I will definitely give you a grand and solemn proposal ceremony," Lin Chuan chuckled.
"I don't want it." Tang Yung snorted lightly and said: "Who said I'm going to marry you?"
"You're my girlfriend now, isn't the next step to talk about marriage?" Lin Chuan's smile was radiant. As for Bai Yifan's bullshit, Lin Chuan couldn't be bothered to pursue it anymore, it was all in the past. Whether or not Tang Yung needed to know was no longer important, because from now on, Tang Yung was his woman, and no one else should even think of taking her away.
"Nonsense." Tang Yung snorted and said: "Does being in a relationship an we have to get married?"
"Chairman Mao said, if you're dating without the purpose of marriage, you're just ssing around," Lin Chuan said with a grin.
"You!" Tang Yung glared at Lin Chuan and said: "Are you saying that I'm ssing around?"
"No." Lin Chuan shook his head quickly and said: "How could sis be ssing around, at most you're just being stubborn."
"You jerk." Tang Yung's playful punches landed on Lin Chuan's chest imdiately.
Lin Chuan hugged Tang Yung tightly, he whispered in her ear: "Silly girl, I will definitely make you happy."
The loss of Song Xiaojia was a heavy blow for Lin Chuan, so he put all his emotions into Tang Yung. If Tang Yung betrayed Lin Chuan at this ti, it would probably be a truly devastating blow for him.
Tang Yung said with a smile: "I'm willing to be your silly girl for life!"
At that mont, Lin Chuan felt he was the happiest man in the world, feeling that no other man could be happier than him. What about those n who married female celebrities? In the end, weren't they less happy than him?
Lin Chuan hugged Tang Yung tightly, and Tang Yung said softly: "If I can gain your heart, may we never part till death do us."
"Sis, I am that very person you want," Lin Chuan said with conviction.
After dinner, Lin Chuan sent Tang Yung back to the City Committee residence. Then he walked slowly toward his ho. In the dark, the bone-chilling cold wind swept in waves, making one feel extrely cold.
Lin Chuan was wearing very light clothes, but his heart was full of warmth, so his body naturally felt warm. If the heart were cold, perhaps the body would feel cold wave after wave. Under the streetlight, there was a long shadow. Lin Chuan was smoking a cigarette, with both hands in his pockets.
He hadn't gone far when Lin Chuan suddenly stopped in his tracks.
"Co out," Lin Chuan said coldly.
Rustle rustle...
More than a dozen n ard with knives and sticks erged from the greenery on both sides. The leader was none other than one of the Northeast Tiger's n, the one who had warned Lin Chuan last ti at the bathhouse.
"Heh heh, Lin Chuan, you're quite alert, huh?" one of Northeast Tiger's minions sneered.
"Without so alertness, I wouldn't know how many tis I've died by now," Lin Chuan took a drag on his cigarette and asked, "Did Northeast Tiger send you?"
The minion of Northeast Tiger said impatiently: "You don't need to worry who sent , listen up, shut down your bathhouse imdiately, or don't bla us for not being polite."
"So it is indeed about the bathhouse?" Lin Chuan said with a smile: "Go tell Northeast Tiger, I'm set on opening this bathhouse."
"Don't be foolish, boy," Northeast Tiger's minion glared at Lin Chuan.
"It's Northeast Tiger who is being foolish," Lin Chuan said with a smile: "Money is to be made together, that's market rules, not his monopoly."
"Hmm, it seems, boy, you choose to defy respect and prefer punishnt," Northeast Tiger's minion said coldly.
"That's right." Lin Chuan nodded.
"Guys, show this kid so color," Northeast Tiger's minion imdiately waved his hand.
