Chapter 139: Chapter 139: Does She Have a Boyfriend?
Ye Zhun was discharged from the hospital that day, and Ye Yan wanted to treat Chai Chen to a meal.
This time, thanks to him, Ye Zhun had fully recovered. Now, he looked energetic and vibrant, a refreshingly handsome young lad.
But Ye Yan was worried about what to cook.
"Big sister, why not invite Brother Chen over to our house for dinner?" Ye Zhun earnestly suggested.
"How could that be okay? My cooking definitely can’t compare to a restaurant’s." Ye Yan hurriedly waved her hand.
Chai Chen smiled and said, "I’ve never tried your cooking. Actually, I’d prefer to eat the dishes you make over those from an outside restaurant."
"Big sister, haven’t you heard the saying? The highest standard of invitation is a home-cooked meal. Brother Chen has tasted all sorts of delicious foods; the key is to let him taste our sincerity."
Ye Yan always felt this kid was plotting something, but what he said seemed to make a lot of sense.
Instead of randomly choosing a restaurant outside, a meal made by oneself would certainly show more sincerity.
The three of them went to the supermarket to buy groceries and returned to the apartment in Daqian Creek.
Although Ye Yan’s culinary skills couldn’t be considered excellent, she was definitely capable of cooking some homestyle dishes. Plus, they had bought some ready-made roast goose, char siu, and marinated dishes, so it didn’t take long before the table was fully laden.
"Thank you, Dr. Chai," Ye Yan said earnestly, raising her glass with emotions brimming in her eyes.
Even though the person she deeply trusted had hurt her, there were still people who stood resolutely by her side, helping her.
She was grateful to these people; it was they who had extended a helping hand when she was most helpless, helping her overcome the difficulties.
"Big sister, why do you still call him Dr. Chai? That title sounds so distant," Ye Zhun put down his juice glass, blinking his eyes.
Ye Yan was momentarily at a loss. She had never really thought about this issue of address.
"Then just call me Chai Chen," Chai Chen spoke up generously, "calling me doctor makes it seem like we’re still at the hospital."
Ye Yan agreed just as openly, "Okay, I’ll toast to Chai Chen, thanking you for taking care of Xiao Zhun during this time."
"This is what I should do." At this moment, Chai Chen felt more solid than ever about his decision.
Otherwise, how would he have the chance to sit here, eat the food she personally prepared, and have lighthearted conversations with her?
After dinner, Ye Yan went to wash the dishes, and Chai Chen offered to help but was shooed out of the kitchen.
"Brother Chen," Ye Zhun called him over, whispering conspiratorially, "I’ll show you my sister’s room."
"Is that really okay?" Chai Chen frankly rejected the idea, even though he was quite curious; it wasn’t the conduct of an honorable man.
Ye Zhun shrugged his shoulders. He had no ulterior motives; he just wanted Chai Chen to get to know Ye Yan a bit better.
"Xiao Zhun, does your sister live here alone?"
It didn’t seem like anyone else lived here.
"I stay at school and rarely come back. She’s usually here by herself."
Hearing this, Chai Chen felt a secret joy.
He really didn’t know much about Ye Yan’s romantic life.
But to say she was single didn’t quite seem right either.
"Does your sister have a boyfriend?"
"No," Ye Zhun said with certainty.
Perhaps she had one before, but definitely not now, otherwise why wouldn’t he show up?
The smile on Chai Chen’s face became noticeably broader, and he pursed his lips.
"Brother Chen, if you want to pursue my sister, I can help you."
Meanwhile, Lin Zihang, who was working overtime at the law firm, sneezed violently.
Was he betrayed so quickly?
"Yes," Chai Chen straightforwardly confessed his affection, "I do indeed like your sister, but I don’t think she has those kinds of feelings for me."
"Feelings are cultivated slowly, just you wait. I rank among the top fifty professional supporters in Ao City."
As Ye Zhun said this, he took out his phone and started playing a game with Chai Chen.
After Ye Yan finished washing the dishes, she also washed some fruit for the two of them.
Seeing the younger and older one playing with zest, she quietly returned to her room.
Originally planning to find a piece of clothing in the wardrobe, she saw two sets of men’s pajamas hanging there.
The first time Fu Xingzhou had stayed over, he had worn Ye Zhun’s clothes, and afterwards, he had his assistant send over two sets.
Seeing them, the scenes of that day seemed vividly present.
She took down the clothes and packed them in a black plastic bag.
He probably wouldn’t miss two articles of clothing, they might as well end up in the trash bin.
"Sis, where are you going?" Ye Shui lifted his head from the game, noticing Ye Yan carrying things out the door.
"Throwing away trash, you guys keep playing."
Ye Yan took the elevator downstairs, heading straight for the nearest garbage bin in the community.
Under the deep night sky, a row of vehicles was parked not far away.
Ye Yan didn’t look but simply threw the bag in her hand into the bin and quickly turned around to leave.
In just over a minute, she had vanished at the stairwell.
"It’s the lady," the bodyguard said, looking towards the man in the back seat, who had obviously seen her as well.
That intense gaze had fixed on the direction she left, without returning to reality for a long time.
Ye Yan hadn’t visited since Ye Zhun’s hospitalization, spending days at work and nights in his hospital room, it had already been over ten days.
Today was her first time home, and she was not alone.
That man was her colleague and also Ye Zhun’s attending doctor.
If further traced back, he was also Professor Geng’s student.
The reason Ye Yan found out about the surgery must have been due to this colleague.
About half an hour later, Chai Chen walked out from the building entrance, his car parked not far away, and he quickly got in and drove off.
As soon as his car left, another vehicle started following from behind.
At this time, the roads were not very crowded, and Chai Chen glanced at the rearview mirror, sharply noticing the anomaly behind him.
He deliberately slowed down, and the vehicle behind also slowed its pace.
He sped up, and the vehicle behind also accelerated.
Chai Chen was certain, he was being tracked.
However, he couldn’t think of who it would be.
He, being a doctor, normally bore no grudges with anyone, and if someone desired revenge, they wouldn’t resort to such means.
Chai Chen turned into a bustling highway and simultaneously called the police.
"Ding Ding"
The ringtone kept sounding, but no one answered.
Ye Yan hung up the phone puzzled.
She texted Chai Chen, he didn’t reply, she called him, and he didn’t pick up.
He had left over an hour ago and should have been home by now.
"Brother Chen might be taking a shower," Ye Zhun, while playing games, reassured her, "Don’t worry, sis, he’ll call back once he sees it."
Ye Yan hummed a reply and began to work on her computer.
Another hour passed and Chai Chen still hadn’t returned the call.
"Sis, Brother Chen couldn’t have had an accident, could he?" Ye Zhun, slightly worried, hurriedly opened the local news website.
This webpage reported sudden incidents in Ao City; if there were any car accidents, they would be posted immediately.
There were indeed two minor accidents, but they were only slight scratches, and the license plate numbers were not Chai Chen’s.
Ye Yan dialed Chai Chen’s cell phone again, still no answer.
"Could also be that his phone died and shut down automatically, that’s the same ringtone," Ye Zhun consoled, "Brother Chen’s a big guy, he’s definitely okay."
Ye Yan could only hope for the best but still felt an underlying unease.
