Chapter 730: I Want to Be a Competent Boyfriend
They tried to take a closer look at Ye Ling’s face. Ye Ling wore his cap really low and was lowering his head to eat the whole time. Due to the angle, the two of them could not take a clear look. They could not help but mutter. “Is Master Qian really dating two people at the same time?”
“No wonder Ye Ling did not leave his assets to him! Served him right!”
“My Master Qian will not be such a jerk!”
“Do you even know him? You only met him once and are already calling him so intimately. What’s wrong with you? I’m your girlfriend, not him. Have you turned gay?”
“I’m more wronged than Dou’E![1. Dou’E is a character in a famous play written in the Yuan Dynasty who was wrongly convicted of crimes by a corrupt court official for actions perpetrated by a rejected suitor, Mule Zhang.].”
The little couple started quarreling. The woman stormed out of the restaurant in fury, and the man hurriedly chased after her.
Shen Qianshu nudged Ye Ling’s hand and said, “Master, rumors say that Master Qian dumped you and gave his love to someone else. As a result, you gave all your assets to Tong Hua and did not leave a single cent for me!”
“Concentrate on eating.”
“How do you feel?” Shen Qianshu looked up and smiled at him. Her eyes were twinkling with cheekiness and had an unexplainable gentle playfulness to them. There were always rumors of Master Qian in society. Being a fatally attractive person to both men and women, she had almost forgotten Master Qian’s story already.
“Dumb,” Ye Ling said calmly and displayed a cold ‘I don’t believe the rumors’ front. This led Shen Qianshu to not know whether to laugh or to cry.
“Master, what if one day, I really fall in love with someone else?”
“You will never.”
“Why?”
“You will never.” Ye Ling was certain.
She was not a fickle person. He believed her.
“But what if?”
“Then you will regret it,” Ye Ling said calmly. His tone was not really sinister but would cause one to feel a slight chilliness. The surrounding atmosphere had also already turned cold. Shen Qianshu pressed her lips together and suddenly did not dare to ask what was it that she would regret.
This hypothetical question was really very dumb.
But wasn’t love just like this?
Saying some nonsense and doing some things that they felt were interesting while others would feel were stupid. This was how love should be.
After they were done eating, Ye Ling seemed to look really troubled and uneasy.
Shen Qianshu also knew why he felt uneasy.
Her body was always his weak point.
Now, he could not even take care of himself anymore.
“Master, we are here for a date. Don’t pull a long face! Be happier!” Shen Qianshu said. The two of them went to the cinema, holding hands.
Shen Qianshu hugged his arm and said, “Normally, a boyfriend is in charge of the whole date. From footing the shopping bill, ordering the food, to collecting the movie tickets. Master, let’s see how you perform!”
The cinema was very crowded. The facilities in this cinema were very new and luxurious. The movie tickets here were twice the price of those in normal cinemas, but couples still loved to catch a movie here. There were many people here, and the queuing line to buy tickets was very long too.
Ye Ling frowned and stared at the situation for a moment, before silently getting into the queue. Shen Qianshu smiled brightly at the side.
It was a bit too high-profile in the cinema. She did not join Ye Ling in the queue, but she saw many people looking curiously at Ye Ling and thinking that he might be a celebrity. They were secretly taking photos of him. Many young girls were also attracted by him and screamed excitedly for him.
Ye Ling’s face darkened, and he was extremely unhappy.
Shen Qianshu gestured a ‘good luck’ sign to him.
It’s rare for us to come out for a date, so don’t lose your temper!
Her eyes shone cutely and pitifully, as if silently pleading him. Ye Ling’s fury was suppressed once again. She was his biggest fire extinguisher and could accurately hit any of his points.
Even if there was someone who was secretly taking photos of him under the pretense of taking a selfie, Ye Ling also endured.
They were dating, so he could not lose his temper!
He needed to be a competent boyfriend.
