Chapter 439 Protection
The next day, Gu Yan got up very early. After tidying up and eating breakfast, she went to the dessert shop.
She opened the shop very early today, so no one was there yet. She walked in and did some cleaning, and then sat in the shop, waiting for customers.
Unexpectedly, Qi Changfeng came in instead. Gu Yan saw Qi Changfeng, feeling confused why he came so early today. Qi Changfeng was very weird recently, and she didn’t know what he was going to do today.
However, Gu Yan was still pretty moved as she thought that only Qi Changfeng would care about her and greet her every day. That was in stark contrast to what Mo Yichen had done. He just left when she asked him to get out!
Tears were about to well up in her eyes. Qi Changfeng looked at her, noticing that she was a bit abnormal. It seemed that she had something on her mind, so he asked, “What’s wrong?”
Gu Yan replied, “It’s nothing. Just sore eyes.” Qi Changfeng knew that Gu Yan was unwilling to tell him, so he said, “Don’t have your beauty ruined by bad mood. Happiness makes one younger.”
Gu Yan felt a bit more comfortable when she heard Qi Changfeng’s words. She smiled at him, without any traces of sadness anymore. Her depression completely disappeared.
Gu Yan’s happy face made Qi Changfeng delighted as well. Every time he saw Gu Yan’s smile, he became pleased.
Being immersed in happiness, Qi Changfeng almost forgot his purpose. He came to invite Gu Yan to dinner.
Therefore, he asked immediately, “Well, I want to invite you to dinner tonight. Would you deign to come?”
Gu Yan thought, “Qi Changfeng always takes care of me, but I didn’t do anything for him. I should take this opportunity to express my gratitude.”
Therefore, she answered “You’ve helped me a lot, but I have never expressed my gratitude. Let me treat you to dinner today!” Qi Changfeng replied, “Don’t be so polite.”
Qi Changfeng was very happy because he could finally have dinner with Gu Yan today. Her attitude brought him a good mood in the whole day.
People said that women in love were fools. In fact, men were too, which was vividly reflected on Qi Changfeng.
Qi Changfeng answered, “That’s a deal then. I’ll pick you up when you get off work, and then we go to have dinner together.” Gu Yan agreed, and Qi Changfeng left happily.
After Qi Changfeng left, Gu Yan thought for a while, “Qi Changfeng really treats me very well. He always helped and protected me when I was in trouble. If I didn’t love Mo Yichen, I would probably love him. Nevertheless, it’s good to just be friends.”
She thought, “I should invite him to this meal today. He has helped me so many times and I should express my gratitude.”
There were more and more people coming into the dessert shop, and Gu Yan became busy. When she finished her work, it was already eight at night. Gu Yan dressed herself up. It was necessary since she was going to have dinner with Qi Changfeng.
Qi Changfeng arrived at the door of the shop, waiting for Gu Yan. After a while, Gu Yan walked out and saw Qi Changfeng. She smiled, “Have you waited long?”
Qi Changfeng said immediately, “No. I just arrived, and then you came out. You are so good-looking today, as beautiful as a fairy.”
Gu Yan was a little shy when she heard Qi Changfeng’s words. “He must be exaggerating. I just dressed myself up simply.” She thought.
Then they walked together. The wind was cool at night, making people feel very comfortable. They walked quietly without saying anything, but this scene was like a beautiful picture.
When they reached a food stall, Gu Yan stopped and asked, “Have you never eaten such foods?” Qi Changfeng nodded.
Gu Yan said, “I often eat here. Although the environment is not very good, the food is quite nice, otherwise there would not be so many customers. Let us have a try today.”
Gu Yan ordered a lot of dishes without looking at the menu. She asked Qi Changfeng what he wanted and he just replied, “I will eat whatever you order.”
They sat on the chairs and ordered two cans of beer and drank. Qi Changfeng asked, “You really often come here. Does every girl have such an ability?”
“What ability?”
“Finding delicious food.”
Gu Yan smiled complacently, and said, “That’s my superpower.” Then she nodded proudly.
After a while, all the dishes Gu Yan ordered were served. Qi Changfeng has never eaten in such an environment. He had only gone to ritzy restaurants, and foods there were all exquisite.
However, seeing that Gu Yan ate with relish, Qi Changfeng also had a try, and found that they were really delicious. He quickly adapted to the food stall. After meeting Gu Yan, he tried many new things. This must be love. Qi Changfeng had never imagined that one day he would wear a neat suit and eat with Gu Yan at the outdoor food stall.
Seeing Qi Changfeng ate so happily, Gu Yan felt relieved a lot. She was worried that the rich would probably not accept such foods. Qi Changfeng was so happy instead, which was beyond her expectation.
However, all kinds of people would come here. Most of the customers came to drink, particularly to get drunk.
When Gu Yan and Qi Changfeng were eating happily, a drunkard bumped into Gu Yan. Gu Yan fell to the ground with a scream in pain. Although she was a little unhappy, she didn’t dispute with the man because he was drunk.
However, Qi Changfeng couldn’t bear it. He was unwilling to see that Gu Yan was bullied, even by a drunkard.
Gu Yan noticed that Qi Changfeng was angry, so she advised him, “It’s not a big deal. He was drunk. Just ignore him and continue eating.”
Qi Changfeng was still unhappy. He said, “I can’t bear that you are bullied.” Gu Yan was moved by his words but insisted, “He didn’t mean it. Besides, I’m not injured.” As she said, she bounced around to show that she was fine.
