Chapter 51 - 51 A Call From the Childhood Sweetheart
51 A Call From the Childhood Sweetheart
He went out for a ride and it was already very late when he returned home.
Ye Feng went to the bathtub to take a bath.
Then, he wrapped herself in a bathrobe, poured himself a gla.s.s of red wine, and sat on the recliner on the balcony.
Enjoying the night breeze and the moon, he felt very comfortable.
However, this satisfaction did not last for long.
A sudden phone call interrupted his mood.
The caller ID showed that it was Zhou Shuyao.
Ye Feng was still a little tipsy at first, but after seeing this name, he immediately woke up.
A shy and pure girl immediately appeared in front of him.
The two of them had known each other since they were young and could be considered childhood sweethearts.
In fact, he had always been secretly in love with her.
And Ye Feng could also feel that she had a good impression of him.
It was a pity that Ye Feng’s family was not well off at that time, and he felt a little inferior, so he did not dare to confess to her.
Ever since Ye Feng went to university, the two of them had not contacted each other.
Ye Feng was still a little fl.u.s.tered when he received her call.
After calming down, he picked up the phone.
“Hey, old friend, do you still remember me?”
As soon as the call was connected, a fresh voice came from the other side.
Ye Feng tried to make his tone as calm as possible. “How could I not remember? You still owe me a ham sausage.”
“Hehe…” Zhou Shuyao was amused by his slightly humorous words.
“Why are you calling me?” Ye Feng felt that the strangeness had lessened, so he asked directly.
“What, I can’t call you for no reason?” Zhou Shuyao pretended to be angry.
“Of course not. I’m just a little surprised,” Ye Feng quickly explained.
“Alright, I won’t tease you anymore. I’m here to inform you to come to the pre-wedding gathering tomorrow.” Zhou Shuyao immediately revealed her intention.
“You’re getting married?” When Ye Feng heard this news, his heart seemed to have been hit hard.
“What nonsense are you saying? Liu Jie is getting married and wants to meet up with his old friends before his wedding. Didn’t you have a little conflict before? He was too embarra.s.sed to inform you, so he asked me to pa.s.s on the message,” Zhou Shuyao explained with a smile.
“Oh, Liu Jie? It’s been so many years, and he’s still holding a grudge?”
Liu Jie was also Ye Feng’s childhood friend, and he was three years older than him.
After that, the two of them had a small conflict and never spoke again until today.
Zhou Shuyao immediately started giggling.
The two of them chatted for a while more before hanging up.
When he thought about how he would be able to see Zhou Shuyao tomorrow, Ye Feng was still a little nervous.
Had she changed?
She was so pretty, there should be a lot of people pursuing her, right?
He didn’t know if she had a boyfriend now.
One question after another entered his mind.
Unknowingly, Ye Feng had already fallen asleep.
…
The next morning, Ye Feng originally changed into a custom-made Zegna suit.
But on second thought, wasn’t this a little too formal?
After all, he was going to meet his childhood friend, and it wasn’t good to make it too grand.
Then, he changed into his old clothes, the kind that cost tens of yuan at roadside stalls.
Then, he drove the Lykan supercar out of the villa area.
It had to be said that the rate of people turning their heads around in this supercar was really too high.
Along the way, it attracted the envious gazes of countless people.
Liu Jie and the others had made a reservation at a five-star hotel called ‘Xing Yue’. There were many luxury cars parked at the entrance.
However, when the Lykan supercar drove in, all the other luxury cars were instantly overshadowed.
After Ye Feng parked the car, he got up and walked toward the restaurant.
Just as he was about to step into the hotel, he suddenly heard a woman’s voice behind him. “Is that Ye Feng?”
Ye Feng turned around and was stunned.
The person who appeared in front of him was Zhou Shuyao, who had once made him dream of her.
She was wearing a white dress today. Although it wasn’t expensive, it had an indescribable charm on her.
The light makeup on her face made her already pure face look even fresher.
In addition to her 92 points in looks and above 90 points in figure, she really had the charm of a girl who changed and became more beautiful.
“Shu, Shu!” Ye Feng did not know why, he suddenly stammered.
“Uncle? I’m still an auntie!” Zhou Shuyao couldn’t help but tease him.
“Shuyao, long time no see.” In front of her, Ye Feng had returned to being that shy big boy.
“Yeah, it’s been so long, but you’ve never called me.” Zhou Shuyao’s tone carried a hint of resentment.
Coupled with her reproachful eyes, Ye Feng suddenly felt a deep sense of guilt.
He didn’t know how to explain.
He couldn’t say that he used to feel inferior and that he was not worthy of her, right?
Zhou Shuyao didn’t want him to feel too embarra.s.sed and hurriedly pushed the topic away. “I was just joking with you. Why don’t you have any sense of humor? You’re still the same as before, a blockhead.”
After she finished speaking, she took the lead and walked toward the hotel.
Ye Feng hurriedly followed after her.
Liu Jie’s reservation was in the hall on the first floor.
For an ordinary person’s financial situation, this was already very expensive.
As for the private room, don’t even think about it. It was not something that ordinary people could afford.
When Ye Feng arrived, there were already many people around the table.
They were all friends who had grown up together.
Seeing Ye Feng and the other woman arrive at the same time, the crowd started to make a ruckus.
“Oh, you two came together? Is there a secret that you can’t tell anyone?”
“You already said that you can’t tell anyone. Were you together last night?”
“I’ve always thought that you two were interested since I was young. I didn’t expect that after a few years, your old feelings for each other have rekindled.”
“It seems like we’re going to have double happiness.”
“…”
Hearing everyone’s teasing, Zhou Shuyao’s face immediately turned red. “Don’t talk nonsense. What if Ye Feng has a girlfriend? It wouldn’t be good if his girlfriend found out.”
Hearing this, Ye Feng immediately shook his head. “I don’t have a girlfriend.”
As soon as he said that, the room started to wail again.
Zhou Shuyao’s face turned even redder.
However, there was a trace of worry in her eyes.
