Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife-Chapter 17 Taking Responsibility
The atmosphere in the restaurant turned really awkward as the two customers sitting at the same table stared at each other for a long time.
After being taken by surprise and the shock of finding out that her virtual boyfriend was the same man she hitted on a day ago, Ran Xueyi's instinct was going between 'flight' or 'fight'. But in the end, she just wanted to cry tears of shame, but no tears came out of her eyes.
Pushing the glass of water towards her, Song Yu Han was extremely calm and the corner of his lips were upturned. He said, "Why don't you drink some water first."
Ran Xueyi held in her nervousness and readily accepted the water he offered her although that glass of water turned out to be his glass and she forgot that on her side, there was another glass of water for her.
However, Ran Xueyi didn't notice this until she finished drinking the water from his glass.
Upon realizing what she had just done, Ran Xueyi tried to avoid his amused gaze. "That... Please believe me. This is all a misunderstanding."
"Oh? Which one? The one where you asked me to be your boyfriend? Or when you suddenly started to call me your boyfriend."
Song Yu Han's question shot an arrow in her heart twice!
It was a double kill.
Ran Xueyi placed a hand over her chest and ashamedly looked down. If she could, she would have already looked for a hole where she could hide or bury herself alive before anyone else could do it for her.
She didn't have the courage to look at the man straight into his eyes. Her previous actions were already too much for her to take and gave her a lifetime worth of shock and fright.
However, it wasn't the time to heal her wounded self nor try to evade this situation.
Song Yu Han watched her patiently. He didn't rush her to answer, nor did he continue counting the things that she had done. He didn't even mention the sperm he previously kept in the clinic.
Biting her lips before letting them go, she said, "I really didn't know that you'd turn out to be my vir... virtual boyfriend. But I really didn't approach you intentionally!"
Ran Xueyi assumed that Song Yu Han must have mistaken her as one of the many girls who chased after him. Being the number one bachelor in the country and also possessing an extremely handsome face, the number of women, perhaps men too, who wanted to have him as their boyfriend and sleep with him could fill the Yangtze River.
Although guilty as charged because of her previous action of hitting on him, Ran Xueyi didn't want him to misunderstand her and have a bad relationship with him in the future. Having Song Yu Han as her enemy was something she really wanted to avoid.
"I know." Before Ran Xueyi could feel relieved at his reply, she heard him add, "Give me your phone."
"Ha? Why do you want my phone?"
"To clear the situation," he replied.
Suspicious, but had no other choice, Ran Xueyi fished out her phone from her small Chanel bag and surrendered her phone to him.
At first, Song Yu Han thought that she wouldn't give it up and strongly protested against him, but she surprised him again as she handed her phone to him.
Song Yu Han felt a little bad, but he still reached his hand out and took the phone from her. However, the moment that he took the phone, their fingers slightly touched, and in that moment, the two of them paused and stared at each other.
But they also quickly regained their senses and acted like nothing happened.
"You don't have to worry. I'm just going to look at your messages."
Ran Xueyi's mouth twitched. Isn't that even more worrisome than just showing him her photos? Where's the word 'privacy' between the two of them?
But then again, she didn't mind him looking at her messages or even the hundreds of private photos she had in her phone. It was really weird how she felt relaxed and comfortable being with him.
Song Yu Han didn't know what she was thinking inside her mind as he opened the message icon on the phone screen. There were more than twenty new unread messages today. All of them belonged to her family, fiance, and some names he didn't bother to memorize.
He skipped over them and stopped scrolling when he saw the word 'virtual' in the record. He opened it, and as expected, it came from the virtual shopping online that Ran Xueyi came across.
After he opened the message, he let Ran Xueyi see it from her seat, but didn't return her phone.
Ran Xueyi was still suspicious of him, but when she saw that the last message of the virtual shop was telling her that her order was cancelled, she realized the greatest mistake she had committed.
"Oh my God..." Ran Xueyi covered her mouth for fear she would scream.
'Then, doesn't this mean that I never bought a virtual boyfriend and one-sidedly treated Song Yu Han as my virtual boyfriend?' Ran Xueyi's mind was thrown into chaos.
"I added you last time to talk to you about something. However, I didn't expect that you would actually mistaken me as the virtual boyfriend you bought." Song Yu Han didn't ask her as to why she ended up buying a virtual boyfriend and patiently explained.
Ran Xueyi uncovered her mouth and wanted to explain her side when she saw him raise a hand to stop her as he continued to speak.
"Although there's nothing erasing what happened, but I cannot allow you to take responsibility alone. After all, I also didn't correct you and instead, went along with it," Song Yu Han said.
Ran Xueyi also realized this and nodded. If Song Yu Han clarified everything in the first place, things wouldn't have turned this way. So, he wasn't without fault in this misunderstanding.
Like two adults, the two of them quickly cleared the misunderstanding about the virtual boyfriend matter that caused everything to turn this way.
However, Song Yu Han wasn't finished with his piece. 𝐟re𝐞w𝐞𝒃𝓃𝒐𝐯𝚎𝒍.c૦𝚖
"As the other party in this matter, why not take full responsibility of it and turn this misunderstanding into a reality." Song Yu Han suggested.
"What do you mean by that?" Ran Xueyi tilted her head in confusion, but deep inside her, something was hinting at her that his words meant something else.
However, she didn't need her mind to complete the sign as she watched him open his lips and speak once again.
"Why not let me be your real boyfriend and you will be my girlfriend, hm?"
