Chapter 77: "Solving The Misunderstanding"

When Lai Jiayi was thinking, Zhao Yang stole a peek at the girl's face. He unconsciously touched his bangle.

'...why is she acting normal? She was crying a few hours ago because of me, but now she's talking with me as if nothing happened?'

Zhao Yang knitted his eyebrows. His chest tightened.

'Did I overthink? Maybe she didn't cry because of me– '

"A-ah right, boss, " Lai Jiayi suddenly spoke. The girl maintained her distance from the guy, but it was less than a meter. "A-about this evening…"

BA-THUMP.

Zhao Yang shuddered. The guy instantly looked away from Lai Jiayi while gasping for air.

'Does she want to bring up the incident when she cried? Does she wants to blame me– '

"T-truthfully, I-i wasn't crying…" Lai Jiayi scratched her cheek.

'Let's solve the misunderstanding now so tomorrow...I can just plan other things to raise the barometer in one go.'

"I-i didn't cry because I'm sad." Lai Jiayi laughed dryly, but Zhao Yang widened his eyes. The man slowly turned his head to the right.

"What...do you mean?"

'Not sad? Then why are you crying? Isn't it because I was too harsh? I selfishly avoided you because I thought that I'd hurt your feelings since you confessed to me.'

Now you tell me that's not the case? Then what??

Seeing Zhao Yang was looking at her with a dumbfounded face, Lai Jiayi felt a heavy burden on her shoulders. She suddenly had a feeling that if she told the man the truth, the barometer might drop.

'But I want to solve our misunderstanding, ah! It's so hard to chase after you, and if we suddenly get awkward, all my efforts will be in vain.'

"Y-yes, boss. That time...I-i cried because of…" Lai Jiayi paused.

'Because of what? What should I say? Dust? Leaves? Pebbles– Nah, that's too big. Or maybe…'

"I-i got chili paper– I mean chili pepper in my eyes!" Lai Jiayi half-shouted. Thankfully the bar was noisy. Thus, no one heard the girl except for the man.

Zhao Yang slightly opened his mouth. His mind was offline for a few seconds before it went back online.

'Chili...pepper? Eh?'

"I-i am embarrassed to tell you, b-but...I was eating spicy food, and I-i touched my eyes…" Lai Jiayi lied without even stammering. Ah, no, she was stuttering.

"T-then after you said that you don't hate me, the chili pepper got into my eyes...s-so…" Lai Jiayi covered her cheeks and blushed.

Though all of that was just acting.

"S-so, I suddenly cried! I-i am sorry, boss. Y-you must be shocked!" Lai Jiayi lowered her back, but her forehead just hit Zhao Yang's shoulder.

The girl instantly backed off while cursing in her heart.

'F*ck that hurts!!'

Lai Jiayi's forehead throbbed in pain, and it was also a bit red. Zhao Yang couldn't help but notice this.

"Your forehead– "

"A-ah, I'm fine, really!" Lai Jiayi rubbed her forehead and laughed it off.

'If I say it hurts, this dense man might touch my forehead out of pity. Now I wonder if those women fell for this guy because he is so kind? In the past, I bet his girlfriend was often angry with him because he's such a Saint.'

The girl's guess was spot on, but thankfully, Zhao Yang didn't know it. If he knew, he might suddenly feel bad, and the barometer might drop drastically.

"...alright." Zhao Yang gripped his wrist tightly, preventing his hand from reaching out to the girl.

'Damn this habit. This is what makes Biyu often scold me. I shouldn't show too much care to those who aren't close to me.'

Right after Zhao Yang spoke, the two of them went silent. They just stared at each other before Lai Jiayi averted her eyes.

'With this, the misunderstanding is solved, right?'

She just thought like that when Zhao Yang opened his mouth.

"Then...you weren't crying because of me?"

Lai Jiayi flinched. The girl immediately looked up at Zhao Yang and nodded with all of her might.

"Y-yes, yes, not your fault– " she hadn't finished her words when the voice of a woman interrupted her.

"I'm sorry for the wait. Here is your Sunset cocktail." Tan Xinya appeared out of nowhere with two glasses of cocktails in her hand. The drink she brought looked identical to each other, but one could see a slight difference.

The one in her left hand was a bit slimmer than the one in her right hand.

Lai Jiayi instantly had the urge to strangle Tan Xinya.

'Why did you come before I solved the misunderstanding?! F*ck!'

Lai Jiayi gritted her teeth and smiled at Tan Xinya. "Thank you, lady barmaid! Took you long enough...it must be difficult, right?" the girl spoke with a hint of mockery.

Even Zhao Yang could sense the sarcasm in Lai Jiayi's tone of voice. The man couldn't help but look at the girl.

'Is she that desperate to drink? This is the first time I saw her being like this.'

For the moment, Lai Jiayi forgot to put up her 'good girl' act, but Tan Xinya ignored it. She just placed the slimmer glass in front of Zhao Yang and put the other one in front of Lai Jiayi.

"Yes, I'm sorry, little girl. I was quite busy." Tan Xinya smiled sweetly, not minding the mockery in Lai Jiayi's tone.

Lai Jiayi could only hold back her wrath and nodded. "It's alright. I don't mind."

The girl then peeked to the left. She instantly saw Zhao Yang already gripped the glass and was about to bring it to his mouth.

! Sh*t. I have to prevent him from drinking that!
