The waiter at the crayfish restaurant was stunned for quite a while before he served the menu. That was because Lin Ruoxi's looks and aura were simply too intimidating. It was as though a fairy from heaven had suddenly come to the market to buy groceries. It was simply astounding.
Many passersby couldn't help but slow down when they saw the woman by the window of the crayfish restaurant.
Zhao Hongyan was born into an ordinary family, so she wasn't unaccustomed to it. However, she couldn't help but feel a headache when she saw Lin Ruoxi sitting on the greasy stool so casually with her clothes worth tens of thousands of yuan stained with oil.
Lin Ruoxi didn't find anything wrong with it. She pointed at the items on the menu and said, "Two plates of crayfish, this, this, and these dishes. Also, a pickled vegetable soup."
The waiter quickly went to do as he was told. He didn't forget to turn back to glance at Lin Ruoxi while walking to the kitchen. This woman was simply too beautiful. Even without makeup, she looked prettier than the heavenly queen, Lin Hui!
Zhao Hongyan wanted to cry. She said that she was going to eat with her, but she hadn't ordered yet. She didn't say that she wanted to eat crayfish!
However, Lin Ruoxi didn't care much about her. After the crayfish was served, she took one out and started to peel it slowly …
She peeled it very carefully, trying not to let her fingers touch the meat. Moreover, she wanted the meat to be as intact as possible.
Zhao Hongyan wasn't good at this. She didn't eat much after peeling for a long time. She simply ordered a bowl of rice and started eating other dishes.
After peeling more than ten crayfish, Lin Ruoxi suddenly put down the crayfish she was peeling and raised her head slowly. "Hongyan … Peeling crayfish really doesn't seem easy … Even if I can control my strength, I might not be able to do it quickly …"
Zhao Hongyan swallowed the rice and smiled. "Mr. Lin, why did you suddenly want to eat crayfish?"
A complicated look appeared in Lin Ruoxi's eyes. After a moment of silence, she smiled like a blooming white orchid. "Because … there was someone who peeled a whole plate of crayfish for me in the past … It tasted … really good.
I wanted to try it today … but the lobster I peeled doesn't taste as good as before … "
Zhao Hongyan froze for a moment and smiled bitterly. She thought that her guess was right. The person who would bring Lin Ruoxi to this kind of place and peel lobsters for her could only be that man.
"I remember that I called him a 'fool' at that time. Now, it seems that I wasn't wrong. It's so hard to peel them, and he peeled so many of them …"
"Chairman Lin, forgive me for being blunt, but aren't you a fool?" Zhao Hongyan sighed. "Actually, I don't understand. Even if you have your own difficulties, shouldn't you face them properly? Everyone in the company and I see you as our idol. You have led us to where we are today with such courage and determination.
But why do you have to escape here when it involves your own personal affairs … You dragged me here today, isn't it because you can't forget Yang Cheng? "
The air seemed to be a little stuffy, and it was hard to breathe.
Lin Ruoxi smiled faintly. "It's not that simple … Life isn't a business. In a business, even if you fail, suffer losses, or close down, as long as you're still alive, no matter how slim the hope is, you can always make a comeback … So, I'm not afraid.
But life is different. There are some things that I don't dare to gamble on. Because if I lose, if I fail, it will be devastating. I can't turn back time, and I can't travel to the past. If I lose and fail, it's the end … So, I choose to be afraid. "
Time seemed to have stopped at this moment.
Zhao Hongyan looked at Lin Ruoxi speechlessly. She used to be envious, and she was envious now. The woman in front of her had beauty, wisdom, and love that she couldn't compare to.
But now, she felt that the woman in front of her had more sorrow. Her beauty, wisdom, and love didn't seem to bring her happiness.
Sometimes, happiness seemed to be right in front of you, but in fact, it was thousands of miles away.
Just as the two women were silent and speechless, a figure silently walked into the lobster restaurant. He walked step by step to the side of their table and stood still.
A familiar, yet inconceivable voice rang in the ears of the two women …
"Silly girl … Didn't I say that you're a silly girl … Why wouldn't you dare to gamble? Although life might end completely if you lose the gamble … But, if you don't gamble from the beginning, doesn't that mean that life has already ended early … "
A look of surprise appeared on Lin Ruoxi's mournful face. She then raised her head abruptly and saw Yang Cheng with a familiar smile on his face!
"You … How did you …"
Lin Ruoxi wasn't the only one. Zhao Hongyan was shocked as well and was a little dumbfounded.
Yang Cheng didn't answer immediately. Instead, he picked up a lobster from the plate and reached out to peel it. He said, "I've been watching you since you got on the bus. I wanted to see where you were going. As expected … You came here … Hehe, my little Ruoxi darling, although I don't know what you're hiding from me … But, if you keep saying that you don't love me, that you don't miss me, that you don't want to be with me, I won't believe it even if you beat me to death …"
Lin Ruoxi's cheeks instantly glowed. She was tender and alluring. She never thought that Yang Cheng would appear. This time, she didn't know how to continue her act.
It was obvious that Yang Cheng had heard their conversation from outside and came in at this time.
Yang Cheng's hands were very nimble. After a moment of disdain, he had already peeled off the lobster, leaving only soft meat.
"Come, open your mouth." Yang Cheng stuffed the lobster meat next to the woman's pink lips.
Lin Ruoxi noticed that the surrounding people were staring at the two of them, revealing ambiguous gazes, while Zhao Hongyan was secretly laughing at her. She couldn't help but feel her ears burn even more.
"What are you doing! They're all watching! "
"What's there to be afraid of? It's only right and proper for me to feed my wife. Whoever dares to say anything more, I'll send them flying!" Yang Cheng said indifferently.
"I … I want to divorce you! "Lin Ruoxi tried her best to make herself look colder, but no matter how she looked at it, she looked like a puffy bun face. Other than being cute, she was also delicate.
Yang Cheng smiled, "Your current acting is very inaccurate. This is Tsundere, do you understand?"
"I …" Lin Ruoxi was so anxious that she was about to cry. What should she do now? She actually wasted all her previous efforts just because she came to eat crayfish once!?
She didn't know that even if she didn't come out of Yu Lei to eat crayfish, Yang Cheng had already steeled his heart to pester her. He even wanted to hug her thigh and scream.
Yang Cheng was secretly happy that she exposed herself like this. It saved him a lot of effort.
"Little wife, just eat it. Your husband treats you well!" A middle-aged man sitting next to her laughed.
"So it's a quarrel between husband and wife. They quarrel at the head of the bed and reconcile at the end. Don't be angry!" Another person came back to his senses and persuaded.
Many people started to make jokes out of goodwill. This made Lin Ruoxi's face especially hot, and she didn't know what to do.
Yang Cheng sighed and said gently, "Alright, darling Ruoxi, I don't care what your reason is. You can keep hiding it from me. I won't force you to tell me. I just want to tell you that I won't let go of your hand again.
I don't want to make any 'selfless' choice. I'm selfish to the extreme in my desire to possess you. I don't want to go against my own heart, and I don't want to listen to any of your reasons and excuses because I've already seen your heart. "
Lin Ruoxi suddenly stood up and slapped the crayfish meat off Yang Cheng's hand. She was so angry that she cried, "What do you know! I said I won't be with you! Don't let me see you ever again!! "
While she was scolding him, Lin Ruoxi's tears kept rolling down like pearls with a broken string.
The woman walked around Yang Cheng and quickly ran out of the door under everyone's gaze. Her fine black hair danced in the sunlight.
"Young man, what are you waiting for! Chase after your wife! "The surrounding people immediately shouted.
Yang Cheng didn't need them to say anything. He shot out like an arrow and in the blink of an eye, he had tightly hugged Lin Ruoxi from behind!
"You … Let go of me!!"
Lin Ruoxi struggled and even wanted to open her mouth to bite Yang Cheng's hand. However, she couldn't reach it. Her delicate body twisted and she didn't care about the plump ball of flesh rubbing against Yang Cheng's arm and squeezing it into all kinds of shapes.
Yang Cheng hugged the woman tightly and her fragrance filled his arms. He opened his mouth and blew hot air on the woman's translucent earlobe and bit that sensitive area.
"Don't even think about it. I'll never let go of you again …"
"You … Yang Cheng, can you let go of me … We really can't be together …" Lin Ruoxi cried even more sorrowfully. This warm embrace made her feel uneasy.
"I want to be with you! I want you to be my wife! Lin Ruoxi, to me, no consequences are scarier than losing you … "
Lin Ruoxi's soft body trembled and she sobbed, "Don't tell me … In order to be with me, you're not afraid of death?"
Yang Cheng laughed in a low voice beside the woman's ear. The more he laughed, the wilder and wilder he became, causing the passersby to stop and look at the two of them. They were filled with puzzlement and curiosity. Some people even thought that this man had gone crazy.
However, the two of them didn't care about anything around them. They could only hear each other's heavy breathing.
Yang Cheng grinned and moved closer to the woman's ear. He said each word sonorously, "Lin Ruoxi, you're underestimating me, Yang Cheng … To me, death is never scary. Because even if I die, I, Yang Cheng, have lived a vigorous and fulfilling life!
To me, the scariest thing is that when I'm still alive, I've already lost the person I love the most. Because that means that even if my body is still alive, my heart has already turned to ashes … "
