Sir, How About A Marriage? Chapter 696

Chapter 696: Provocations

After the manager walked over, Yin Yi said, “Everyone’s here now. You can serve the dishes.”

“Yes, miss,” the manager replied politely. Then, he walked to Cheng Che’s side and said in a respectful tone, “President Cheng Che, we’re unaware that these are your guests.”

Cheng Che leaned back and replied gently, “It’s alright. I’m a guest today as well. Charge the bill to me.”

The manager bowed in response.

The members of the Yin family looked at Cheng Che in a daze upon hearing this exchange.

Finally, Ye Cheng chuckled and said, “You brat! You hid yourself quite well! Do you own this restaurant?”

Cheng Che replied indifferently, “I started this restaurant with Brother Chen. We didn’t expect it to be so popular. A few people insisted on getting involved, and it ended up like this. We don’t really care much about it so those people are running this place now.”

Ye Cheng smiled. “Amazing! This is such a great business, and both of you didn’t even think of including me.”

Cheng Che looked at Ye Cheng and said, “You don’t even care about the Ye family business, how do you have time to get involved with our hobby project? Just focus on being a good government servant.”

Ye Cheng did not seem annoyed by Cheng Che’s words. Instead, he said jokingly, “Clearly, both of you didn’t even think about me, but you’re still trying to twist the facts.”

Old Master Yin was clearly delighted by this discovery. He did not expect his grandson to be so promising.

On the contrary, Old Madam Yin was upset. Earlier, she and her son had spared no efforts praising the restaurant. She did not expect Cheng Che to be the owner of the restaurant. She was incredibly vexed. Seeing that Yin Bin and his family were in high spirits, how could she swallow her anger? Thus, she winked at her son and her daughter-in-law meaningfully.

Kang Ru, Old Madam Yin’s daughter-in-law, looked at Yin Yi and asked with a smile, “Yin Yin, is the popular female celebrity your brother mentioned earlier Zhuang Ning?”

Yin Yi did not seem to find anything wrong with the question. She replied, “There’s only one popular female celebrity now, and it’s Zhuang Ning. No one’s more popular than her now.”

Seeing that Yin Yi had fallen right into her trap, Kang Ru smiled and continued to say, “Oh, then doesn’t this mean that our Eldest Young Miss competed with the most popular celebrity for a boyfriend? The result is a testament to our Eldest Young Miss’ charms.”

Yin Jia slowly sipped on her wine before she replied calmly, “Zhuang Ning and Ye Cheng have nothing to do with each other. Did Second Aunt not hear it earlier? Will you only be satisfied after you put the label of third party on me?”

Yin Jia did beat around the bush and spoke very bluntly, causing Kang Ru to feel embarra.s.sed.

Yin Yang frowned. “You child, how can you speak like that? Your second aunt is only concerned about you. If you really competed with a celebrity for a man, it’d be an embarra.s.sment to our Yin family.”

Yin Jia set her gla.s.s down on the table loudly.

However, before Yin Jia could speak, Cheng Che said tonelessly, “So what if Zhuang Ning is a celebrity? Is it the trend now to insult people for no good reason? If you’re so good, let me ask you: how much did you donate to L City that suffered from an earthquake a few days ago?”

Cheng Che had switched the topic so quickly that the others instinctively shook their heads in response to his question.

Cheng Che sneered. “So none of you donated? However, Zhuang Ning donated five million to L City.”

Lang Ru said unwillingly, “Female celebrities earn money very quickly, don’t they? I heard that they earn a few million just by accompanying others to drink. Isn’t five million a small amount of money to her?”

Cheng Che’s expression changed immediately.

Upon seeing this, Guan Tang hastily said, “Second Aunt, what you’ve heard are just rumors. Miss Zhuang often donates money and gifts. She’s very active when it comes to charity work. She’s especially nice. Right, Sister?”

Yin Jia nodded before she said, “Yes, she’s very pa.s.sionate about charity work. Ye Cheng even helped her with her cause. Speaking of which, Ye Cheng can be considered half her boss.”

Yin Jia did not look at anyone but Ye Cheng and Cheng Che. It was clear she only had eyes for the two men.
