“I’m sorry, I am only here to deliver the dishes. Since the dishes are here, would the young lady please settle the bill so I can go back and celebrate mid-autumn festival?” Ye Jiayao said emotionlessly.
“Li Yao, don’t you also drink with the customers when you are at Heavenly Residence?” Xia Chunyu said with a smile, filling a cup with wine. “Finish this cup and we will settle the bill.”
“How is a cup enough? Head Chef Li is a famous chef in Jin Ling, it has to be at least three cups. Ying-er, get two more cups, Yan-er retrieve a gold ingot,” Liu Yiyi said gracefully.
Both servants obeyed.
“Head Chef Li, after you drink three cups of wine, this gold ingot is yours,” Liu Yiyi said with false generosity.
Ye Jiayao was fuming. What did she ever do to this pair to deserve this humiliation?
Xia Chunyu slightly raised a brow as if he was waiting for a show.
Ye Jiayao picked up the gold ingot and weighed it in her hand, laughing coldly. “It is my first time to see a gold ingot. I should thank Jin Ling’s top courtesan, or should I thank the many men sending you money? However, I don’t care for this kind of treasure. Too dirty.”
Liu Yiyi’s face changed, the hand hidden in her sleeve started trembling.
She forced out a smile and said, “Is that so? Then what should I do? The money I have here are all sent by men. Why don’t Head Chef Li treat us to this meal?”
Ye Jiayao’s smile did not change. “The word ‘treat’ should not be used so casually. I only treat my friends. Both of you are neither kin nor kith to me.”
Ye Jiayao raised her wine cup and stared straight at Xia Chunyu. “I will treat this meal as if I was feeding the dogs.”
She threw the drink at Xia Chunyu’s face and walked out of that horrible place, refusing to look back.
Behind her, Liu Yiyi cried out in shock, “Heir-Son Lord! Quick, Yin-er, get a handkerchief! The nerve of that man!”
Ye Jiayao kept walking, trying to put as much distance between them as she could.
How could he do this? He’d humiliate her like that just because she went on a river cruise with Little Jing and refused to break off all relations with him?
Why does it always end like this? Just when she finally wanted to pour her heart out, a painful blow would disable her. It happened in the mountains and it was happening now.
She didn’t want to cry, didn’t want to show how much he hurt her, but the tears wouldn’t stop.
The round, silver moon in the sky and the lights from thousands of homes served as a reminder to her of just how alone she was in this world.
No, stop, Ye Jiayao. He’s just a man. A bastard at that. Shake it off, rub some dirt on it, and get up. Just because he left, doesn’t mean you won’t make it.
The words were easy to conjure, but her heart wasn’t convinced.
She ran to the river bay, crying out in pain.
She cried and cried, letting out all the anguish and hurt she was feeling because this was her only chance to do so. She would only allow herself to be weak this once.
Xia Chunyu, having already wiped his face dry, sat there drinking wine. Liu Yiyi was dancing to alleviate the tension brought about by Yaoyao’s impudence.
