Chapter 1354 - 1328: Celebration
Ye Chen came out carrying the steak and, seeing Su Wanyi sitting in the living room with a dark face, asked, "Wife, who pissed you off?""Who else could it be? Those two artists, of course." Su Wanyi said sourly.
"Look at you. Is it really worth getting mad over two people who have nothing to do with you?" Ye Chen said as he carried the steak toward the dining room.
Smelling the aroma of the steak, Su Wanyi followed him over.
She looked at Ye Chen and said, "You don’t know. I just turned on the TV and glanced at the entertainment channel, and what do you know, it happened to be an interview with those two artists."
"Oh, something like that could happen?" Ye Chen said thoughtfully.
"Exactly. Guess what they said?" Su Wanyi pressed.
"They definitely shoved all the blame onto themselves and wouldn’t mention Yu Yang even once." Ye Chen thought for a moment and said.
"Yeah, they were talking complete nonsense, obviously lying through their teeth, and no one was calling them out." Su Wanyi’s little face flushed red with anger.
"Hey, why take it so seriously? It’s all just Yu Yang’s setup. It’s fine. Since he pulled this, we don’t have to show any mercy at tomorrow’s press conference." Ye Chen comforted her.
Yeah. Actually, when Su Wanyi first found out the mastermind behind it all was Yu Yang, she hadn’t wanted to hold any press conference at all.
But after hearing Ye Chen say that, she decided to do it.
Now that she’d seen that entertainment show, her resolve became even firmer. Tomorrow she was definitely going to expose Yu Yang’s ugly true face and let everyone see this hypocritical fake gentleman for who he really was.
"Alright, alright, come help me bring the dishes out. Let’s hurry up and eat, or the food will go cold." Ye Chen took Su Wanyi’s hand and headed toward the kitchen.
Two People carried all the dishes out and set them on the dining table.
Seeing the dishes Ye Chen had made, Su Wanyi could tell it was a Western-style meal.
Just as she was about to dig in, Ye Chen smiled and said, "Wife, wait a second."
Su Wanyi stopped what she was doing and patiently waited for Ye Chen.
Ye Chen first went to the wine cellar, took out a bottle of Romanée-Conti, then brought over a candlestick, set it on the table, and lit the candles.
"Wife, are you satisfied with this Western meal?" Ye Chen asked with a smile.
"Not bad, hubby, you’re pretty romantic—red wine and candles and all." Su Wanyi said with a laugh.
"Of course. Today is to celebrate you moving in to live with me. How would I dare slack off?" Ye Chen explained.
He was just about to open the wine, but Su Wanyi stopped him. She hadn’t seen the name on the bottle clearly earlier.
When Ye Chen held it in his hand, she could finally see clearly. She knew this wine was very expensive, and if they opened it now for just Two People to drink, wouldn’t that be a bit of a waste?
Ye Chen didn’t understand why Su Wanyi stopped him from opening the wine and looked puzzled. "Wife, is there a problem?"
"No, I just think it’s kind of too extravagant for the two of us to drink such an expensive wine, isn’t it?" Su Wanyi voiced her thoughts.
"How could it be? Letting you drink this wine isn’t a waste at all. Even if it were something even more expensive, I wouldn’t feel bad." Ye Chen said seriously.
"I think we should forget it. How about we switch to another bottle?" Su Wanyi tried to persuade him.
"Nooo, I want to drink this one." Ye Chen said, acting spoiled like a child.
Maybe it was her maternal instinct flaring up, but Su Wanyi could only give in to Ye Chen’s request.
Watching Ye Chen open the wine, Su Wanyi couldn’t help feeling a twinge of pain in her heart.
She might be rich, but she would never be as wasteful as Ye Chen. She felt a wine this expensive should only be opened on very grand occasions.
But Ye Chen just casually opened it like it was nothing, which showed how clueless he was about being thrifty.
Bathed in a romantic atmosphere, Ye Chen and Su Wanyi enjoyed the delicious Western meal.
Ye Chen raised his wineglass, looked at Su Wanyi with a smile, and said, "Welcome to my lady of the house, moving in to live with me. My dream has finally come true."
"Hubby, is it that big a deal? You’re this happy just because I moved in?" Su Wanyi asked back with a smile.
"Of course. Do you know how much I miss you when I don’t see you for a long time? I want to call you, but I’m afraid of disturbing you."
Maybe because of the alcohol, Ye Chen finally said the words he had bottled up in his heart for so long.
Hearing this, Su Wanyi felt a wave of guilt. She hadn’t realized Ye Chen had been burying his feelings all this time.
"Alright, let’s not talk about the past. Let’s only talk about the present and the future." Ye Chen said with a smile.
"Mm, we’ll only talk about the present and the future." Su Wanyi also raised her glass with a smile.
Their two glasses clinked together with a crisp sound.
Two People savored the mellow red wine and the delicious Western food.
Before they knew it, they were a little drunk.
Su Wanyi was never good with alcohol, and her eyes grew a bit hazy. She was seeing two of Ye Chen.
Ye Chen had the Skills of a Thousand Cups Unintoxicated, so he was completely fine.
"Hubby, why do I feel a little dizzy?" Su Wanyi frowned and looked at Ye Chen.
"Wife, you should drink a little less. I think you’re already drunk." Ye Chen tried to talk her down.
"Who says so? I can still drink. You could give me another bottle and I’d still be fine." Su Wanyi retorted.
Ye Chen knew this was her drunk madness talking, and he somewhat regretted insisting on letting this girl drink.
He’d meant for Two People to have a good celebration, but he hadn’t expected things to backfire and end up getting this girl drunk.
"Alright, alright, let’s stop drinking and eat some food." Ye Chen tried to snatch the wineglass from Su Wanyi’s hand.
But how could Su Wanyi possibly agree? She clutched the wineglass tightly in one hand and grabbed the bottle with the other, pouring herself some more.
Ye Chen knew he couldn’t control this girl, but letting her go on like this wasn’t an option either. He tried to help Su Wanyi up.
Maybe it was the alcohol, but this girl suddenly had amazing strength, and no matter how he tugged, he just couldn’t get her to stand.
While Ye Chen was at his wits’ end, Su Wanyi took the chance to down the wine in her glass again.
"Hubby, this wine is so good. I still want more." Su Wanyi said, acting spoiled.
"Okay, if you want to drink, we’ll drink more tomorrow." Ye Chen said helplessly.
He knew this wasn’t going to work. He had to get Su Wanyi into the bedroom.
"Come on, hubby will take you to get an even better wine." Ye Chen said with a smile.
As soon as Ye Chen said that, Su Wanyi actually believed him. She hurriedly got up and followed him.
But halfway there, she realized this wasn’t the way to the wine cellar at all.
"Hubby, where are you taking me? Are you lying to me?" Su Wanyi asked in a daze.
Ye Chen didn’t answer. Taking advantage of her confusion, he scooped her up and headed straight for the bedroom.
