Chapter 274: Date

The restaurant was full in less than 20 minutes.

He Xiyan noticed that almost everyone present were couples.

Obviously, both Ye Hao and herself were part of this too.

“Are we on a date?” He Xiyan said flatly but her eyes were full of happiness.

She looked at Ye Hao but noticed that his gaze had been attracted to a spot behind them.

“What’s wrong?”

She followed his gaze and realized that it was a familiar figure – Ye Hao’s sister, Ye Shiyu.

Ye Shiyu seemed to be waiting for someone. Her head was bowed as she toyed with her phone and she dressed very differently as compared to her usual style. She looked very demure as though she was a daughter from a rich family.

“She’s probably dating!” He Xiyan said evenly. Although she had clashed with Ye Shiyu at Pear Garden, she didn’t bear a grudge against her since she was merely a student and had apologized to her. Therefore, on account of Ye Hao and his father, she had let the matter slide.

Ye Hao retracted his gaze and only the corners of his lips curled coldly.

Then, he cut a slice of his steak and placed it on He Xiyan’s plate.

“Have something to eat. Just ignore her.”

He Xiyan nodded and ate the slice of steak that he cut for her. Since there were so many people in this place, the rate that the dishes were being slowed had naturally slowed down. More than 10 minutes had passed but only two of the dishes they had ordered had been served.

“Is it delicious?” Ye Hao looked up to see her taking large mouthfuls of her food and couldn’t hold back a laugh. She looked extremely hungry.

He Xiyan said, “It’s alright. It still isn’t as good as the steak from Mo Lan Restaurant at Shen City.”

However, she was extremely hungry so she didn’t think that the food tasted too bad. Although she often fretted about her expanding figure, her stomach was like a black hole and she would find herself hungry every two to three hours after a meal.

She guessed that her child was probably growing very fast within her and that all the nutrients from her food had been absorbed by her child.

Ye Hao also took a bite, then he immediately frowned and said, “It’s indeed not that great. Let’s go somewhere else.”

“Sure. Let’s go have skewer hotpot, barbequed meat from the streets, and…”

He Xiyan was still talking when Ye Hao pinched hard on her cheeks and reminded her to stop daydreaming. All the foods she listed were not suitable for pregnant women and street food were not hygienic either, so there was no way he’d bring her to eat street food.

Suddenly, Ye Hao rose to his feet and sat beside her, then placed an arm over her shoulder.

He ignored the fact that they were in public and pulled her into his embrace.

He Xiyan was so stunned by his sudden actions that she immediately shrank back and lowered her head, afraid that others might see them.

“Ye Hao, we’re in a public area,” she reminded him softly. If they continued hugging like this, they’d be attracting a lot of attention.

Ye Hao smiled and dug out his phone from his pocket and turned on the front-facing camera. Then, he raised the camera up and took two photos of them looking like a loving couple.

“Smile,” Ye Hao said as he pinched her cheeks.

He Xiyan was completely dazed. His actions were very intimate and she already noticed a few people turning to stare.

“Alright, quickly take you shot,” she quickly curved her lips into a smile and smiled awkwardly at the camera.

She didn’t understand why her mature husband was suddenly acting like a child.

“Alright,” Ye Hao finally let her go. However, she found his following actions even more unbelievable.

He dug out her phone from her handbag.
