Hearing Ye Jin's praise, Su Chengjing felt a surge of joy. This gift was well-chosen; finally, he heard Ye Jin speak highly of him!
However, his good mood was quickly dispelled by Ye Jin's next words. So the matter of "true love" couldn't be let go, right? He was determined to prove himself today!
And what does it mean to bury the grave here? Why does she keep thinking about such unlucky things all the time?
To prevent Ye Jin from thinking about anything unlucky, Su Chengjing quickly interrupted Ye Jin thoughts, "Are you hungry? There's a Michelin chef on the island. I had them prepare a feast before boarding the plane, and it should be ready by now."
Ye Jin did nothing but eat and sleep on the plane.
[Ugh! You should have said so earlier! I ate too much on the plane and didn't exercise, I'm not hungry at all now!]
Su Chengjing felt a pang of disappointment. He had only thought that it would be lunchtime after he got off the plane, and he had forgotten that Ye Jin had been eating non-stop on the plane.
However, just when he thought Ye Jin would refuse, Ye Jin spoke up, "Okay, then I'll go over now. Where's the restaurant?"
[Although I'm still a bit full, how can I miss out on such delicious food! I'm always ready for my favorite dishes.]
As she spoke, she seemed impatient and pulled Su Chengjing forward.
Su Chengjing felt his mood instantly improve. He turned around, grabbed Ye Jin's hand, and pulled her in another direction, smiling as he said, "The restaurant is on the other side."
Ye Jin immediately stopped and gave an awkward smile, "You lead the way, you lead the way, I got a little too excited and forgot I don't know the way at all."
Su Chengjing said no more and led Ye Jin toward the island restaurant, but he never let go of Ye Jin's hand.
Ye Jin was initially too embarrassed to notice Su Chengjing's actions, only realizing it after walking for a few minutes.
[Wait, why is my husband holding my hand so tightly? Did he forget to let go for a moment? Should I remind him? But wouldn't it be a little awkward to do so?]
Su Chengjing felt his palms sweating slightly with nervousness. Of course, he hadn't forgotten; it was intentional. He even wanted to hold hands with Su Chengjing until the end of time.
Chapter 46
However, no matter how much Su Chengjing prayed in his heart, every road eventually comes to an end. Soon, a glass house appeared before them, nestled among green trees.
The glass-enclosed space is bustling with waiters and chefs, making it immediately clear that it is a restaurant.
[The restaurant offers both sunshine and air conditioning, with views of the beach and sea in front and a tropical rainforest behind. Who chose this location? It's fantastic! If the food were also delicious, it would be perfect!]
Su Chengjing also looked towards the restaurant. He knew that there was more than just delicious food there; there was also a surprise he had specially prepared.
Soon the two entered the restaurant, only to find it filled with all sorts of flowers, and a small band already on stage, playing soothing and romantic music.
[Wow, is this restaurant really that high-end? So many flowers and a live band! You'd think it was some trendy Instagrammable spot.]
[It must have cost a lot of money to bring these people to the island, wait a minute, this island is mine now, this money isn't going to come from my account, is it?!]
Ye Jin's face instantly turned terrified.
Su Chengjing had assumed Ye Jin would love this surprise and eagerly awaited her reaction, but after hearing Ye Jin Ye Jin's true feelings, he was stunned once again.
He really shouldn't have had any expectations of this unromantic woman. His first thought after seeing all this was whether he needed to pay for it himself!
However, he also knew that if he didn't tell Ye Jin, she might be tormented by the thought.
He quickly added, "Although the island is privately owned, when we're not here, we entrust a professional company to manage and operate it, receiving visitors. It basically breaks even, and sometimes we even make a profit."
Ye Jin breathed a sigh of relief, finally putting her mind at ease.
Even if Su Chengjing hadn't said anything, she wouldn't have agonized over it for long. Even though it was her own money that was being spent, since she had already spent it, she was determined to enjoy it to the fullest.
Ye Jin walked quickly to the table where the dishes had already been set out and flowers had been arranged.
Seeing this, Su Chengjing also went over, and the two sat down facing each other.
[Wait, this atmosphere is a bit ambiguous, more like a couple's date!]
Ye Jin simply didn't think in that direction, but that doesn't mean she's stupid.
However, considering Su Chengjing's past behavior, she dismissed the idea of her suddenly appearing.
[Ha, how could that be? How could Su Chengjing, that clueless workaholic, possibly prepare a surprise date? Besides, even if he did, it wouldn't be me!]
Su Chengjing wanted to refute, but after thinking about his past style, he had to admit that what Ye Jin thought was indeed true.
In fact, the surprises he had today were the result of his reading of countless romance movies and novels, but unfortunately, Ye Jin in front of him didn't seem to be buying it.
Su Chengjing was somewhat disappointed, but fortunately, the waiters started serving the dishes, Ye Jin finally let out her first genuine exclamation of surprise that day.
[Waaaaah, so delicious! It's true that only good food and beautiful scenery are worth cherishing. One of the reasons I decided to leave the entertainment industry was that I couldn't stand dieting for the sake of my figure!]
[They really are Michelin-starred chefs; I want to take them home!]
Seeing Ye Jin eating with such relish, Su Chengjing couldn't help but lower his head and chuckle to himself. It seemed his plans for today hadn't been entirely useless.
Learning from his previous experience, Su Chengjing didn't rush to interrupt Ye Jin's meal. He waited until Ye Jin had almost finished eating and started sipping wine while admiring the scenery outside the window before he began to speak.
