From Rejected Fake Heiress to Desired True Love-Chapter 288: Li Yehan, You’re So Sly

Lan Qingran had never seen anyone like Li Yehan, domineering and shameless.

Yet Li Yehan still had a smile on his face, which left people speechless.

Li Yehan said, "Qiaoqiao, the seafood here is good. See what you’d like to eat."

He took the menu, leaning close to Nan Qiao, as they looked at it together.

Anyone passing by could tell that Li Yehan and Nan Qiao were the real couple.

Nan Qiao glanced at the menu and picked a few items.

Then she looked up at Lan Qingran and said, "Brother Qingran, take a look at the menu and order whatever you like."

Li Yehan added, "Lan Qingran, the food at this restaurant is quite good. Qiaoqiao and I come here often."

Lan Qingran was speechless. ...

Was Li Yehan showing off to him?

Lan Qingran looked at the menu and ordered two dishes, "Jingjing, you like shrimp. I’m not sure if they’re as fresh as the ones on Shui Jing Island."

The seafood on Shui Jing Island was naturally fresh, as it was caught and eaten right away.

"Brother Qingran, the seafood here has a decent taste," Nan Qiao said with a smile.

Li Yehan also ordered a bottle of red wine, and the waiter helped them pour it.

Li Yehan said, "Don’t pour any wine for my girlfriend’s glass."

In a low voice, Li Yehan told Nan Qiao, "Qiaoqiao, have some juice. I’ve ordered you a glass of orange juice, which will be here soon. If you drink alcohol now, I’m afraid you’ll have a stomachache in a couple of days. Do you want me to get you a cup of hot water?"

Nan Qiao blushed and instantly understood what Li Yehan meant.

Her period was due tomorrow; drinking today wouldn’t be good.

Nan Qiao pinched Li Yehan’s leg awkwardly, "Don’t talk about that."

Watching the two bask in their sweetness, Lan Qingran felt bitter inside.

"I’m going to the restroom," Lan Qingran stood up and left.

He couldn’t watch any longer; he feared he might lose control of his emotions.

After Lan Qingran left, Nan Qiao said unhappily, "Are you doing this on purpose? Li Yehan, this isn’t very nice."

"Qiaoqiao, I’m definitely not doing it on purpose. My heart for you is the sincerest. My concern for you comes from the heart."

Nan Qiao was at a loss for words. ...

She had nothing to say.

The hot water arrived, and Li Yehan took a sip first.

He then brought the cup to Nan Qiao’s lips, speaking indulgently, "Qiaoqiao, be good, drink some hot water?"

"You’ve already drunk from it."

Li Yehan drew closer to Nan Qiao, his magnetic voice full of seduction, "Qiaoqiao, I’m just testing the temperature for you."

Nan Qiao was speechless. ...

"Li Yehan, I’m not a child. You don’t need to test the temperature for me." Nan Qiao was embarrassingly awkward.

"Qiaoqiao, even though you’re not a child, I still need to take good care of you. Even if we have children in the future, you’ll still be my number one, the most important person to me."

Nan Qiao was speechless. ...

"Li Yehan, be serious."

"Qiaoqiao, I am being serious. You’ve also seen me when I’m not, haven’t you? I’m not like this, right?"

Nan Qiao was speechless. ...

"Li Yehan, you’re so slick."

Li Yehan was speechless. ...

At that moment, Lan Qingran returned, and their dishes were served.

Li Yehan tasted a steamed shrimp, finding its flavor similar to what he had on Shui Jing Island.

Lan Qingran suddenly realized something. Qiaoqiao didn’t need to return to Shui Jing Island to enjoy delicious seafood.

Nan Qiao had found someone she liked here and wouldn’t go back to Shui Jing Island.

Lan Qingran’s feelings were complicated and sad.

Nan Qiao noticed that Lan Qingran’s mood was off and softly asked, "Brother Qingran, does the seafood here not suit your taste?"

"It tasted good, similar to Shui Jing Island’s. Jingjing, I’m glad to see you enjoy the food here."

Lan Qingran had also brought some seafood, initially wanting to surprise Nan Qiao by cooking for her personally.

But now, Lan Qingran felt uncomfortable bringing out that seafood.

Li Yehan stayed quiet, attentively pouring water for Nan Qiao and peeling shrimp for her, considerately caring for her.

Lan Qingran watched all of this, his eyes dim without any sparkle, sipping seafood porridge.

A dish was then served—sweet and sour spare ribs.

Nan Qiao was surprised, "Didn’t we not order this dish?"

Lan Qingran was also surprised because it was his favorite dish.

Hadn’t Nan Qiao ordered it for him?

Li Yehan said, "I ordered this dish for Lan Qingran. Qiaoqiao, didn’t you say he liked it? This restaurant doesn’t normally serve it, so I had the chef come to make it especially for him."

Li Yehan looked at Lan Qingran, "Give it a try."

Li Yehan’s actions took Lan Qingran by surprise and were unexpected.

Wasn’t Li Yehan very hostile towards him? Why would he ask the kitchen to cook for him?

Before Lan Qingran could feel touched, Li Yehan spoke again, "You’re Qiaoqiao’s brother, her family, and therefore also my family. Young brother Qingran, let’s see how you like the sweet and sour spare ribs made by the kitchen."

Lan Qingran was speechless. ...

So in the end, he was still worried he’d pursue Nan Qiao!

Lan Qingran took a bite with his chopsticks, his expression froze in pleasant surprise; it was indeed delicious.

Even without saying a word, Nan Qiao could tell how the dish was.

...

After finishing the meal, Li Yehan said to Nan Qiao, "Qiaoqiao, I’ll take you home, and let Lan Qingran take my car back to the hotel."

Lan Qingran was puzzled. ...

Apparently annoyed, Lan Qingran said, "Li Yehan, you brought me here. Why are you leaving me to go back alone?"

Li Yehan gave him a meaningful glance, his tone revealing surprise, "Lan Qingran, you can’t possibly let Qiaoqiao go home alone, can you? It’s late, and it’s very unsafe for a girl to go back by herself!"

Lan Qingran was stunned. ...

Li Yehan, such a green tea man!

Nan Qiao was also amused, pursing her lips, not daring to laugh too obviously.

Li Yehan continued, "Lan Qingran, was this how you used to protect Qiaoqiao, your sister? If so, you’re indeed not as good as Qiaoqiao’s current three brothers."

Lan Qingran was speechless. ...

Li Yehan was infuriating!

Nan Qiao hurriedly explained, "Brother Qingran, let Li Yehan take you back. I can drive back myself."

Lan Qingran said, "Qiaoqiao, I’ll take you home. Let Li Yehan drive himself."

Li Yehan found another reason, "If you take Qiaoqiao back, you’d have to turn back to the hotel, which wastes more time. Qiaoqiao’s place is close to mine; it’s on the way. Qiaoqiao is so thrifty, and you’re being quite wasteful."

Lan Qingran was speechless. ...

He had nothing to say.

The reason was all on Li Yehan’s side; he was portrayed as someone who neither protected Nan Qiao nor was thrifty.

Lan Qingran could only say, "Jingjing, I’ll take your car, I have a driver’s license too."

Nan Qiao was about to speak when Li Yehan immediately said, "Sure, just be careful on the road."

Li Yehan held Nan Qiao’s hand, heading towards the parking lot, as if afraid Lan Qingran would follow.

When parking, Li Yehan parked a bit far from Nan Qiao’s car.

Now, Lan Qingran knew what was going on.

Li Yehan’s possessiveness was too strong; he wondered if Qiaoqiao could handle it.

If she couldn’t, he would take Qiaoqiao away.
