Novel Full Chapter 432 - Wait For Me To Get Drunk Again.
"Yum! This cheesy white sauce pasta is really delicious, Brother Shuai. I could still say that no one can cook it better than you. I could finish this whole big bowl if someone asked me to. I really love the taste" Feng Yi Lan said as she brought full fork pasta to her mouth to chumble it down in one go.
Qi Shuai did not say anything. He just stared at her, trying to read her intentions that she was clearly hiding behind. He could see it but could not guess it. Her behaviour like this was definitely not something normal.
"Brother Shuai, do you still remember the first time when you learned to cook pasta?" Feng Yi Lan started again. Her voice was full of excitement as she continued devouring the pasta serve on her plate. "Hehe … I could never forget that. It was the real catastrophe one could ever witness in the kitchen. But still, you tried your best just to prepare my favourite pasta. You were the warmest person in this world for me that day. You know it was the day when I first …"
"You came here yesterday night all alone, without informing anyone. It would be only better if you call and inform Su Fai about it once" All of a sudden Qi Shuai said, interrupting her words halfway.
Reminiscing the good memories, no doubt always brings the smile to one's face. But that 'always' is not a permanent outcome of recollecting those past times. Sometimes even those goods from the past could also bring the pain instead of a smile. Especially when one comes to realize that the person in those memories would no longer be willing to stay by their side to create more of such memories again.
Feng Yi Lan's expression also changed at his words but she did not allow that expression to remain on the surface for longer. Quickly shrugging it off over her shoulders, she started another topic of her interest. "Oh, how could I forget that I was drunk last night. Brother Shuai, please tell me that I haven't embarrassed myself in front of you and you have not taken any advantage of my state to search the secret answers out my book. You know I have a bad habit of blabbering truth in my drunk state".
As she asked, she crossed her fingers on the top of the table with some hope. The man did not fail to notice that small movement in her but he was not sure of the wish she was aiming in her heart with that cross of fingers.
Taking that it might be her wish of something related to Su Fai and her personal relationship, he shook his head at his half – dishearten state. "Don't worry, I know that our Yi Lan has grown all big now and has got her own personal life. I can no longer get nosy to her personal affairs, so I have not probed you to start anything in your drunken state. I have just let you sleep since you looked tired".
As his words got completed, Feng Yi Lan's face dropped in disappointment. She did not say anything rather just kept her eyes down to stare at her plate like all her world had just gotten onto it and she was no longer concerned with anything around.
Looking at her like that, Qi Shuai was puzzled for a second. Was she upset about something? Didn't he already say that he has not taken any advantage of her state? Then why did she look disappointed?
Her sudden change in the attitude left the man quizzical. He thought to ask her about it but just when his lips opened, she worded out the words herself. "How could you be such a dumb man, Brother Shuai? How could you leave such a good opportunity? Didn't you say that you were feeling bad for what you did back and want to repair everything with me? Then how come you played such a dumb game last night?"
"Huh?" Qi Shuai was all puzzled at her words. He had no idea what her words were about? Was she disappointed with him for not taking advantage of her?
"What 'huh' are you talking about Director Qi? You have been one of the truest gems of the great Feng Internationals. Your brain can be one on which people might bet on but still, you can even see such simple things in front of your eyes?" Her words suddenly came out all sharp and fierce, much unlike the loving tone she was using earlier.
"…"
"Did you not see my change of attitude towards you? From all morning I am continuously calling you Brother Shuai … Is it that hard to read my true intentions behind all those, especially when I am not trying any bit to hide them away from you? I am here making you remember our good past memories and you being a dumb personality asking me if I have informed some other man about my whereabouts or not. What do you think I should say to you about that?"
Not able to control her nerves any longer, Feng Yi Lan lashed out. Though her appearance at his place last night was not any intentional, waking up in his arms early in the morning made her change her mind. She thought why not try to give him a chance. But this man was all idiot did not even understand her single hint.
Qi Shuai was immediately troubled. He knew that she was angry at him but he could not understand her reason behind it. Sighing at his own brain cell's disability, he said, "Yi Lan, what are you talking about? Can you please be a little clear? I have not asked you to inform your whereabouts to just any man, rather have said to inform Su Fai about it, after all, he is your boyfriend, right?"
Feng Yi Lan could not take it any longer. Cursing under her breath, she stood up from her chair as she said, presenting a deliberate smile, "You know what, Director Qi, you have two ways to understand my meaning. Either wait for me to get drunk again, so that you can probe all the truth or of me, or recall everything I did or say from yesterday night to till now and find your answer on your own. Because I am not going to waste my energy here any longer. I am going. Enjoy the rest of the breakfast yourself. Hmph!"
She said before storming her way out while closing the door hard and rough behind her.
At the same time outside, someone hidden behind the dense bushes reported on the call, "Madam Feng, Young Miss Feng Yi Lan has just left the Director Qi Shuai's place in a bad mood! It's safe now. You can now come out of your car"
