Chapter 467: Rainy Night
“Why are we meeting at your place?” Jia Fei asked skeptically as she walked around Yuhan’s house and was amazed to see how his place is always neat and clean.
Don’t people say that the house of single men is no less than a trash can? That’s what she used to think before seeing his place.
He lives alone yet his place is way more organized and clean than her apartment. Although her apartment isn’t worse when it comes to cleaning, it is all thanks to fairy Luo Dan who cleans the living room first thing in the morning and vacuums the whole house, disturbing her sleep.
If Jia Fei would have been living alone, she was sure that she would have turned that aesthetically beautiful condo into a dumping house. In terms of cleanliness, she and Jiang Yue are at par with each other.
Among the three, Luo Dan is the most normal one. That’s why she was named a fairy since she has the patience of a super-nice fairy and has been enduring the two messiest people for so long and still has to handle them, for the next 50 years at least.

Yuhan was in the kitchen, preparing dinner for both of them. He glanced at Jia Fei who was looking around in the living room and responded to her question, ” Didn’t you say the last time that we can’t go outside for a date?”
.....
” That’s why I asked you to come over. Since we cannot go outside, don’t you think we should at least meet indoors once in a while?” He said as he stirred the spaghetti sauce in the pan and turned off the flame when it was done.
Since she is a celebrity, the places for them to date are very narrow. Going outdoors for a date is off-charts and even when it comes indoors, they don’t have many options either.
Because Jia Fei lives together with Luo Dan, going to her place is not an option. The cafe owned by Jia Fei and Luo Dan is also not safe either if they need to meet frequently since the customers come and go out from there all day long. They cannot fully trust the kitchen staff with the secret as well.
The last option is his office. However, they almost got caught the last time, so he doubts that Jia Fei would like to go there the second time.
That’s why his place is the most secure place where they could meet without any complications.

” I asked to meet indoors, not at his place.” She giggled shyly on her own while she prepared the table to have dinner together.
It still feels surreal that she doesn’t need to look for people to have dinner with her anymore. Otherwise, after Luo Dan got into a relationship with Han Liang, she used to feel lonely, every time she had to have dinner alone.
She hates eating alone but it was too much to ask people to have dinner with her every day. However, now she doesn’t need to do that.
Because she finally has someone who likes to have dinner together with her and this feeling is sure comforting and loving.
” What are you giggling about?” Yuhan was holding the two servings of pasta and was surprised to see Jia Fei giggling on her own while playing with the cutlery.
” Ah! You scared me. Why are you creeping on me like this?” Jia Fei was happy while thinking about many things when Yuhan suddenly crept up on her from behind and whispered in her ears.
She clutched her chest in fright as she tried to calm down her heart which was pounding at an abnormal rate. All thanks to Yuhan.
“Woah! Relax.” He said as he gave her a glass of water and served her the food.
Jia Fei took her seat and started eating the spaghetti pasta made by him. ” Oh! It’s better than I had expected. Nice.” She complimented him as she tasted the sauce that he cooked himself and served with the spaghetti noodles.
She had eaten the food cooked by him before. However, whenever she eats it, she gets surprised every single time. How can he cook food so deliciously?
It’s way better than what she eats at restaurants. Or is it the only one who thinks like that?
If she tries to cook, something or another always gets ruined, and then she ends up ordering food online. That’s why she had stopped attempting to cook and enjoys whatever Luo Dan gives her.
Yuhan was pleased by her reaction to his pasta and asked after he wiped his mouth with a tissue, ” But in all seriousness, what were you doing earlier? What kind of dirty thoughts you were having that you were smirking all alone?” He asked teasingly, catching her off guard.
Jia Fei was shocked by his sudden question and choked on her food. “Ah...Ahah” She started coughing violently. “What...What do you mean by dirty thoughts?” She attempted to ask while coughing.
“Shush. Don’t speak. Here is the water.” He gave her a glass of water and stood up from his seat. He went to her side and started patting her back while she was coughing after choking on the food.
” Are you good now?” He asked in concern when she stopped coughing and looked better.
“I...am...I am fine. Why are you standing behind me? Go and eat your food.” She said in embarrassment and forced him to take his seat already.
She likes when someone takes care of her and worries about her, but at the same time, she is not used to this kind of ‘nice’ treatment as well.
She is used to Luo Dan being around her and taking care of her like a mother. She never feels strange around her fans either because they have always been by her side and love her as much as she loves music.
However, it feels strange when Yuhan treats her nicely. His caring actions toward her make her feel nervous and her ears turn red whenever he touches her.
“Alright. I am going to my seat.” Yuhan went to his seat as promised and focused on her food since she seemed to be worked up by his question earlier.
He was worried that she might choke on her food again and will have a hard time because of it. That’s why he didn’t disturb her while she was eating so that she won’t choke up on her food again.
Yuhan didn’t say anything about that and both of them simply ate their dinner in silence.
However, it wasn’t an uncomfortable silence.
Instead, it was the comfortable silence where no one needed to say anything to dissipate the awkwardness between them.
Even without saying anything, both of them could enjoy each other’s company. It was strange but also made her feel happy about the progress of their relationship as well.
This is what she had wanted when she used to think of dating and being in love with someone.
She is dating someone. Finally!

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter dinner, Jia Fei picked up her purse and was about to go back to her place when it suddenly started pouring outside.
“Oh! It’s still raining.” Jia Fei pursed her lips when she saw the rain pouring outside. It started raining when they were having dinner.
She thought that it was just a seasonal shower and would stop soon. However, it was still pouring hard as ever with no intention to stop anytime soon.
Yuhan looked outside the window and saw the dark and cloudy sky. It was pouring so hard and the thunderstorms were making it worse.
“I don’t think the rain is going to stop anytime soon.” He commented while looking at the weather forecast on his phone which says that it will rain through the whole night.
Jia Fei peeped at his phone and saw the weather forecast. She let out a heavy sigh before asking, ” Can you lend me your umbrella? If I don’t leave now, it will be very difficult to drive after that.”
” You’re going to drive home in this weather? Are you crazy? Don’t you know most of the accidents occur whenever it rains?”
Jia Fei: “.....”
“Are you cursing me to get into an accident and die? All of this just because I asked you to lend me your umbrella?” She looked at him blankly and asked in a serious tone.
Yuhan was dumbfounded when he heard her words and forgot to react. “You...You’re joking with me right?” He asked cautiously.
“No. I am very serious.” Jia Fei said and started laughing at his serious expression. She was just teasing him but didn’t expect him to get all serious.
Yuhan couldn’t even laugh because he was still scared by her strange humor. He almost thought that she was being serious and that her wild imagination was working hard again tonight.
“Anyway, you’re not going anywhere. How can I let you drive in such bad weather?” He said firmly.
” Then what do you want me to do? Should I call a helicopter to go home?” She remarked sarcastically.
“Why are you acting like this? It’s not like you never stayed for a night at my place.” He said and snatched her purse from her and put it back on the couch.
Jia Fei: “???”
