Overbearing Immortal Doctor
Chapter 47 - 47 47 Couples' Restaurant

47: Chapter 47: Couples’ Restaurant 47: Chapter 47: Couples’ Restaurant After sending off Director Ma and his family, Wu Xiaoyu was immediately questioned by Zhou Dong about Bai Yun.

Although he’d only met Bai Yun a few times, today he was unexpectedly drafted as her boyfriend.

Who would believe that they were just acquaintances?

“I remember back in high school, so many girls liked you, but you didn’t accept any of them.

Turns out you like mature ladies like her?” Zhou Dong teased.

Wu Xiaoyu knew that the more he tried to explain, the deeper he’d be in trouble, so he let Zhou Dong think whatever he wanted and focused on the 300,000 yuan instead.

How should he use this money?

It was already afternoon, and if he went to the suburban chicken farm to buy chicks and then returned to Daxin Village, there wouldn’t be enough time.

Besides, he had promised Bai Yun to have dinner with her, so he decided to go back tomorrow.

In the evening, Bai Yun texted him to meet her for dinner at 8 PM at Yueda Western Restaurant, with an explicit “Don’t be late!”

Zhou Dong saw the message and grinned wickedly, “Dinner at 8 PM?

Eat till around 10, then head to the hotel across from Yueda for a room.

Bro, you’re gonna have a sore back tomorrow morning!”

“Screw you, don’t joke around.

How could I let her get her way so easily?” Wu Xiaoyu joked back.

But he was indeed conflicted inside; he was just an up-and-coming butcher and didn’t want to get involved in these rich families’ messy affairs.

Zhou Dong sneered at him but then seriously suggested, “Why don’t I go with you tonight?”

“Damn it!

Why would I do that?

Be the third wheel?

Or do you just want to make me jealous?” Zhou Dong laughed.

Wu Xiaoyu had to explain their relationship again, insisting that although he helped Bai Yun cover a small issue today, he didn’t want to be involved any further.

Zhou Dong, recalling the scene at lunch and his father’s words outside the private room, finally stopped joking and said:

“Alright then!

I’ll go with you for now.

But judging by the fact that she invited you to dinner, she probably wants you to keep pretending to be her boyfriend!”

“That’s exactly why I’m taking you along!

What else did you think?

A feast for you?” Wu Xiaoyu retorted.

The sun set, the evening enveloped the city, and the moon slowly climbed up the branches, stars beginning to twinkle.

Wu Xiaoyu and Zhou Dong drove to Yueda Western Restaurant.

As soon as they entered, a waiter approached them, looking a bit confused and awkward.

After a long silence, the waiter asked if they had a reservation.

Wu Xiaoyu showed the table number Bai Yun had sent him, and they were led to a corner spot.

They sat down and waited for about ten minutes, still no sign of Bai Yun, “Did she stand us up?”

“Hopefully!” As soon as Wu Xiaoyu said this, Bai Yun walked in.

Seeing two guys at the reserved table, she was instantly annoyed.

Are you kidding me?

I invited you to dinner, and you bring someone else along?

And a guy at that!

Are you two boyfriends or something?

Bai Yun walked over, visibly displeased.

Neither of them moved to help her with the chair.

“Sorry I’m late!” Bai Yun said unapologetically, as if it was natural for them to wait for her.

Wu Xiaoyu gestured that it was no big deal, while Zhou Dong sneakily observed her, wondering if she had feelings for Wu Xiaoyu.

After ordering, Bai Yun stared seriously at Zhou Dong and said, “Hi, I’m Bai Yun!”

Her tone suggested she was trying to drive him away, but Zhou Dong, thick-skinned, smiled and said, “I know, Xiaoyu mentioned you!”

“Huh?

What did he say about me?” Bai Yun asked curiously.

Afraid that Zhou Dong would start matchmaking, Wu Xiaoyu quickly interrupted, “We haven’t even met that many times, what could I say about you?”

Bai Yun pouted, “But you are my boyfriend!

You kissed me at noon, and now you deny it?”

Oh come on!

You kissed me, not the other way around!

I haven’t even asked for emotional damages yet?

Wu Xiaoyu thought as he saw her thick-skinned nature.

“I was forced to help you at noon, alright?

Besides, it was all your act, I barely said anything and never admitted to being your boyfriend!” Wu Xiaoyu said after thinking it over.

Seeing his embarrassment, Bai Yun continued, “But you didn’t refuse or deny it either!

Why don’t you just be my boyfriend?”

As Zhou Dong took a sip of water, he almost choked on her words.

Damn it, being the third wheel here is useless!

“Hey, beautiful, don’t believe what I said at noon!

Even though he looks sturdy, he’s actually small and can’t last long!

Anyone who becomes his girlfriend would be terribly unlucky!” Zhou Dong interjected.

Wu Xiaoyu knew Zhou Dong meant to help, but that went too far!

You know I’m not like that!

“Pfft…” Bai Yun burst out laughing, “How do you know whether he lasts or not?

Are you two…”

What the hell!

Big misunderstanding here!

I’m a straight man!

Wu Xiaoyu was about to argue but saw Zhou Dong signaling to him to wait.

Zhou Dong tilted his wrist effeminately and said, “Ah!

You found out.

Please don’t tell anyone else!

We’re truly in love!”

This act made Bai Yun laugh even harder.

A waiter quickly came over, reminding, “Madam, please keep your voice down!

Don’t disturb other guests!”

“Alright, I understand!” Bai Yun said, covering her mouth to stifle her laughter.

After a while, she added, “I’ll explain everything to my grandfather, so you won’t have to pretend to be my boyfriend anymore!”

Zhou Dong stopped his act, saying, “Oh come on!

You should’ve said that earlier, and I wouldn’t have had to pretend to be gay!”

“You know, you two actually do look like a gay couple!

I’ve never seen two grown men having a candlelit dinner together.

Did anyone give you weird looks before I came in?” Bai Yun laughed.

Wu Xiaoyu then noticed that everyone else around them were couples; they were the only table with three people.

Was this a couples-only restaurant?

“I see why the waiter looked at us like that.

He must’ve thought we were a couple!” Wu Xiaoyu chuckled.

“Anyway, thank you for today!

If it weren’t for you, Qian Benben wouldn’t have believed that I had a boyfriend!” Bai Yun said, raising her glass.

They clinked glasses, and Wu Xiaoyu took a sip of his wine, finding it oddly unpleasant.

How could this stuff be so expensive?

It’s beyond understanding!

Although Bai Yun said those words, she felt a bit dejected inside.

Was she really that unattractive?

He wouldn’t even pretend to be her boyfriend?

What annoyed her more was that she, a beautiful lady, invited him for a candlelit dinner, and he brought a third wheel along.

How eager was he to distance himself from her?

Bai Yun, although a bit innocent, was not the type to admit defeat.

Just wait and see!

Eventually, you’ll be captivated by me!
