Chapter 661: Chapter 661 Can I Stay?
"Indeed, it seems so!"
At this point, Luo Yifan couldn’t be bothered with the wager anymore. After all, he’d started this whole thing to force Chen Jing, who’d been hiding in her shell, to face him and face reality.
Now that the ultimate goal of the bet had been achieved, whether to sign the bet or not had indeed lost any real significance.
Except for one thing!
"But if you don’t sign it, how are you going to claim the Fanxin Restaurant?"
When Luo Yifan asked this, he had a purpose in mind.
Or rather, he wanted to confirm once again—just how deep were Chen Jing’s feelings for him?
Chen Jing laughed. "If we are fated to be together, then naturally, I can have it. Isn’t that true?"
It took a moment for Luo Yifan’s brain to catch up with this information, leaving him stunned.
But having seen her bright smile, he quickly understood.
"Indeed, if we can come together, then those things will eventually belong to you."
Furthermore, Luo Yifan felt that Chen Jing didn’t care about his Fanxin Restaurant in the least.
After all, she was more than capable of living comfortably on her own accord, so why should she bear all the nasty names for the sake of the Fanxin Restaurant?
"Brother Luo, I don’t want to be looked down upon by Ying’er and Xiao Yu; and even more so, I don’t want your two sons to despise me!"
Chen Jing’s explanation perfectly validated Luo Yifan’s conjecture.
It wasn’t until she said this that Luo Yifan realized he had indeed overlooked this point.
This bet, if she really signed it, could potentially cause his two sons to look down on her.
Even if the bet was dictated by him, it could easily give the impression that Chen Jing was a woman who didn’t mind doing anything for money.
Luo Yifan leaned over, gently embraced Chen Jing in his arms.
"I’m sorry, I really didn’t think it through when I proposed the wager. Luckily, you didn’t sign it."
Chen Jing didn’t say anything in response, just patted his back.
After a while, Chen Jing addressed Luo Yifan, who was holding her and reluctant to let go, "Brother Luo, the drama is about to start."
Only then did Luo Yifan release her, hesitated for a moment, and planted a kiss on her face.
Chen Jing’s face instantly blushed.
Despite not being a naive little girl who didn’t know about the ways of the world and even being a grandmother, she still got all flustered and embarrassed because of his little affectionate gestures!
Luo Yifan, however, was delighted by her girlish reactions, gave her face a pat, and said,
"Let’s go in."
Chen Jing had no clue how the play was going because her mind was filled with the image of the man sitting next to her and the things he had said and done in recent times.
The situation was similar for Luo Yifan sitting next to her.
From the moment they took their seats, he held her hand tightly in his.
Her hand did not have the delicate softness of a rich girl’s. Her right hand, especially, had some rough calluses from handling knives.
However, this slightly rough pair of hands were the ones Luo Yifan couldn’t help but caress from the start of the play to the end, not once letting go.
When the play ended, Luo Yifan led Chen Jing out of the seating area.
Having never been treated so lovingly like a precious gem, Chen Jing felt somewhat awkward.
As they moved from the seating area to the aisle, she attempted to pull her hand back.
But Luo Yifan wouldn’t allow it. He only tightened his grip and led her out of the theatre.
The Yan family’s car was parked behind Luo Yifan’s vehicle, so the sight of the two of them walking out, hand in hand, was clearly seen by the driver.
However, the driver was a principled person; he would not report to his master unless there were issues of personal safety.
But Chen Jing, her gaze shifting over the Yan family’s car, decisively withdrew her hand.
Of course, it wasn’t that she wanted to renege. She was just... embarrassed.
Luo Yifan glanced at her and then at the spot she had been looking at, instantly understanding her insistence. He gave a small smile, didn’t persist further, and quickly moved towards the car. He opened the passenger door and helped her into the car.
As the car travelled, a familiar following figure stayed behind— the Yan family’s driver. In the car, Chen Jing and Luo Yifan remained silent.
Yet, this silence didn’t feel awkward. Between them, even without words, a warmth invisible to the naked eye but palpable in their hearts flowed.
This warmth seeped into their hearts, subtly nourishing them.
At this moment, neither of them wanted to speak, nor did they want to disrupt this indescribable atmosphere. Both of them felt that some things were better left unsaid.
The journey, which had taken less than twenty minutes on the way over, now took almost an hour. Why had it slowed down?
Were they stuck in traffic? Or was it a different route?
No! Quite the opposite, the traffic was much lighter than before, and the route was exactly the same.
So why did a usually twenty minute journey over such a smooth stretch of road take a whole hour?
For that reason, you would have to ask the driver, Luo Yifan!
And the passenger, Chen Jing, had surprisingly no objection or dissatisfaction towards the suspicious actions of this driver.
The car stopped in front of the apartment building, and the two sat in the car, with neither showing any inclination to get out.
Finally, Luo Yifan broke the silence, "Ah Jing..."
Chen Jing, who had been looking out the window, turned her head to look at him,"Hmm?"
"Can I... stay over tonight?" Luo Yifan hastened to add, frightened that Chen Jing might misunderstand, "I can sleep in baby boy’s bedroom or on the sofa."
His wish to stay came merely from the desire to spend more time with her. For the moment, he had no other intentions.
With Chen Jing’s guard against him almost down to zero, she neither agreed nor disagreed, nor showed any surprise on her face. She simply asked, "Do you have a change of clothes?"
Luo Yifan could hardly contain his joy, but tried not to let it show.
Fearful that she might change her mind, he responded immediately, "Would you accompany me to the supermarket to buy a set? Would that be alright?"
Chen Jing nodded, "Alright, let’s wash it when we get back. We have a dryer at home. Once the clothes are dry, you can wear them."
So, that night, for Luo Yifan, it was as if he had ascended to heaven from the ground.
In the morning, their relationship was still undefined.
At noon, she invited him home for dinner. After dinner, she told him they were now a couple.
Now, after returning from a play, she was even willing to let him stay the night at her place. Even though his stay only entailed being under the same roof rather than sharing a bed, it was enough for Luo Yifan to feel euphoric and ready to jump and shout for
