Chapter 213
Xu Yan was startled, she hurriedly shook her head, "No, no, I didn\'t say that!"
Ye Jin looked outside, "It looks like the rain outside won\'t stop anytime soon. Anyway, you can\'t leave now. If I were a bad person, I would have already made a move on you."
Xu Yan asked curiously, "How would you make a move on me?"
Ye Jin: "?"
Why does this kid keep missing the point?
His expression was too speechless, and Xu Yan also felt that she had misunderstood. She gave an awkward laugh, "I, I was just curious, nothing else."
Ye Jin nodded, "Yeah, I believe you."
Xu Yan: "You\'re so fake."
Ye Jin: "..." Straight up confrontational as soon as we meet?
The two stared at each other for a while until Ye Jin\'s phone buzzed, and Xu Yan snapped out of it.
She had just challenged the kind boss who was trying to help her!
Xu Yan\'s face turned a little red, "I didn\'t mean to say that..."
Ye Jin smiled helplessly, "It\'s okay, my sister texted me. She says you should change out of your wet clothes, or you might catch a cold."
Xu Yan obediently nodded, "Okay, your sister is so nice."
She followed Ye Jin upstairs to find clothes to change into. As they went upstairs, the two parrots downstairs started squawking.
"Eat the fresh grass! Eat the fresh grass!"
"Take her home! Take her home!"
Upstairs
Xu Yan had only changed her shirt and pants before following Ye Jin back downstairs. Ye Jin walked over to the liquor cabinet and casually picked up a bottle of wine, asking, "Want some?"
Xu Yan was a little modest, "Well... just a little bit."
Ye Jin knew her better than anyone, so he directly took a cup and filled it to the brim for her.
Xu Yan hugged the wine glass, sitting cross-legged on the chair, making small talk with Ye Jin, "Boss, is your family really wealthy?"
Ye Jin took a sip of wine, "Did I forget to introduce myself? My name is Ye Jin."
He had some wine on his hand, so he wrote his name on the table surface.
Xu Yan was very polite, "Nice name!"
Ye Jin helplessly put his palm to his forehead, and asked, "Why did you say my family is wealthy earlier?"
Xu Yan drained the full glass of wine, then pushed the glass back to Ye Jin, asking him to refill it.
She licked her lips, "I think this wine tastes really good, I like it. Your wine here tastes so good, yet you sell it so cheap. Boss, you must not lack money."
Ye Jin smiled gently, "Then can you guess why I opened this wine tavern?"
Xu Yan rested her chin in her hand, thinking, "How would I know what you\'re thinking?"
Ye Jin didn\'t mind, his slender fingers gently caressing the wine glass, "I want... to sell the best-tasting wine in the world. My tavern specializes in serving those who have no home."
Xu Yan\'s eyes lit up, "What a coincidence, that\'s what I was thinking too!"
Ye Jin pretended not to know anything, "Hmm?"
Xu Yan smiled, "Once I had an argument with a friend, and I was in a really bad mood. Then my brother secretly took me out drinking. After drinking that time, I thought the same thing."
Her eyes glistened, "I also want to be like you, you\'re so amazing!"
Ye Jin was infected by her cheerful mood, the corners of his mouth curving up, "Then do you want to join my wine tavern?"
Xu Yan was suddenly a little dazed, "Huh?"
Ye Jin realized he was being too hasty and changed his words, "What I mean is, all the wine in the tavern is brewed by me, but I always feel like something is missing. Can you give me some suggestions?"
Xu Yan was barely fooled, she took a small sip of wine and tasted it carefully.
After a while, she said, "I think the wine you brew already tastes great, and I don\'t really understand much about this. Let me go research it, and I\'ll come back to find you, okay?"
Ye Jin smiled, "Sure, no rush, I\'ll always be here."
Xu Yan blinked, and suddenly said, "Boss, do you smile like that to everyone?"
Ye Jin restrained his smile, "Of course not."
For some reason, Xu Yan believed him very much. As she was about to say something, cupping her face, the phone she had forgotten about suddenly started vibrating crazily.
Ye Jin kindly reminded her, "Is that your family calling you?"
Xu Yan fumbled to get her phone out, and indeed it was her brother calling.
She weakly answered, "Brother."
Xu Mo was sitting in his car, his face cold as he said, "Where did you run off to? Not even replying to my messages! It\'s pouring rain, don\'t you know to wait for me to pick you up?"
Xu Yan was a little dazed, and it took her a while to weakly protest, "I, I was walking halfway when it started raining, so I took shelter in a nearby wine tavern."
Xu Mo felt relieved knowing she was safe, "Send me your location, I\'ll come pick you up."
Xu Yan obediently said, "Okay!"
Ye Jin held his wine glass, smiling as he watched her get scolded.
Xu Yan obediently reported her safety to her family, then tossed her phone aside, puffing out her cheeks in complaint, "I\'m already twenty years old! My parents still think I\'m a child, worrying about everything!"
Ye Jin pointed out meaningfully, "But aren\'t you throwing a childish tantrum right now?"
Xu Yan pouted, "I was just casually complaining!"
Ye Jin was still very satisfied to see Xu Yan unconsciously acting spoiled towards him. It seemed no matter how much time passed, his Yan Yan would always instinctively trust him like this.
The two parrots saw this warm atmosphere, and though they had wanted to cause some trouble, after Ye Jin gave them a warning glare, they settled down obediently.
Xu Yan didn\'t notice the interaction between the three of them. She had just noticed the two parrots, looking surprised as she said, "I think I heard them talking earlier!"
Ye Jin shamelessly said, "They\'re just here to attract customers. What use would they be if they couldn\'t talk?"
Xu Yan blinked, "Can I touch them?"
Ye Jin said with a straight face, his heart not skipping a beat, "It\'s better not to. They\'re very dirty, always hanging out with bad birds outside."
The parrots: "...?"
Xu Yan put her hands on her hips, pointing at the parrots, "So you guys are bad little birds!"
The parrots desperately retorted, "No! No!"
"No! No!"
Xu Yan became interested and dragged a chair to sit in front of them: "You two are naughty birds!"
"No! No!"
"No! No!"
Xu Yan faced them both: "Yes, you are!"
She turned to look at Ye Jin: "Look at these two!"
Ye Jin narrowed her eyes: "Hmm? No problem, they won\'t get dinner tonight."
The two parrots: "..."Dang it!
