CHAPTER 46: CHAPTER 46: SAVING A LOVE THAT’S ABOUT TO FADE

Chen Fei pondered for two seconds before agreeing.

Actually, she was quite curious too.

Curious about what her younger brother’s girlfriend looked like, and whether or not she was a good girl.

Coming to a rapid agreement, the two immediately set off in their car.

Finding Chen Han was easy since the phones of White Clothes Pavilion’s hitmen all had real-time tracking, a quick check and they would know.

"We’re just ahead at the Qin Department Store." In the car, Chen Fei switched on the navigation from the passenger seat.

The destination was approximately 7 kilometers away.

Lu Xiao pressed down on the accelerator, and the car roared forward.

After about fifteen minutes, they arrived at the Qin Department Store.

Once the car was properly parked, they quickly switched to pedestrian mode.

As Lu Xiao saw the distance between him and Chen Han getting smaller, he couldn’t help but get excited.

"Mr. Lu, it seems to be here." On the fifth floor of the department store, Chen Fei stopped in front of a Japanese restaurant.

Despite it being past nine in the evening, the restaurant was still bustling with people.

"Do you like Japanese food?" Lu Xiao asked Chen Fei.

"It’s alright."

"Let’s go then." Lu Xiao led Chen Fei into the restaurant.

The waitstaff inside also had a good attitude, asking with a smile where they would like to sit.

After making a half-round inside the restaurant, Lu Xiao finally saw Chen Han seated by a window.

"Sit over there." Lu Xiao pointed to a spot behind Chen Han.

The Japanese restaurant had screens between each seating area, so Chen Han couldn’t notice them.

Soon, the two sat down.

"You can order using your phone by scanning the QR code," said the waiter respectfully before leaving.

Lu Xiao took out his phone and ordered a few signature dishes, then turned his ear to listen to the movement behind him.

When he had walked through the aisle earlier, he had seen the young lady sitting opposite Chen Han and thought she looked quite all right.

He just didn’t know what her character was like.

"So, you actually don’t have any job at all?"

"No, I do have a job, it’s just not convenient to say."

"Are you lugging bricks or carrying cement at a construction site? Do you make five thousand yuan a month?"

"Five thousand... definitely more than that. Ayue, I’ll explain these things to you slowly in the future."

"Forget it."

Hearing the conversation between the two, both Lu Xiao and Chen Fei wore speechless expressions.

It was clear that the talk was on the verge of breaking down.

And this girl didn’t seem all that great either, speaking in a condescending tone, looking down on Chen Han.

However, they were also eager to go out and speak up for Chen Han, but this kind of thing was better handled by himself.

"Forget it? Xiao Yue, what do you mean?"

"Even if my monthly income is only five thousand yuan, so what? We are in love!"

"You said you love me, and when I sent you red packets, you even called me ’dear.’" Chen Han was also getting anxious.

Hearing Chen Han’s words, Lu Xiao almost laughed out loud.

He had thought it was something serious, but Chen Han was also having trouble.

This? He felt he was even better than Chen Han.

"Chen Han, that’s enough, okay? Don’t embarrass yourself."

"We’re all adults here, don’t be so naive."

"With five thousand yuan a month in Hai City, it’s just enough to rent a place. What do you expect me to do, live on love and water every day?"

"Don’t contact me anymore." Having said that, the young lady stood up ready to leave.

Sitting opposite Lu Xiao, Chen Fei breathed a sigh of relief.

No contact would be best. If you look down on my brother, I look down on you, too.

"Xiao Yue, don’t go." Chen Han reached out and grabbed the young lady’s arm, "Although I can’t reveal my job, I... am not penniless."

"Chen Han, I’m warning you, let go!" Gu Yue shouted angrily.

The surrounding customers were all drawn to Gu Yue’s voice.

The restaurant’s lobby manager reacted very swiftly, immediately rushing over.

"Director Gu?" Seeing Gu Yue, Sun Kai couldn’t help but smile.

Gu Yue was the sales director of a nearby company, and they often came here for company dinners.

After some back-and-forth, they came to recognize each other.

Of course, Sun Kai had also been paying attention to Gu Yue for quite some time but never had a good chance to approach her.

Now, it seemed like fate was lending him a hand.

"Sir, please let go of Miss Gu, or I’ll have to call security to escort you out," Sun Kai said to Chen Han in a stern voice.

Lu Xiao and Chen Fei both frowned at the same time.

What was this lobby manager thinking, stepping in like this without understanding the situation?

Chen Han completely ignored Sun Kai, his gaze fixed on Gu Yue.

"Xiao Yue, let’s find a quiet place."

"Can I explain things to you slowly?" Chen Han was still trying his best.

He had chatted with Gu Yue online for quite a while and really enjoyed their conversations.

He had thought that this meeting would seal their relationship, but it had turned into this situation.

"Let go!" Before Gu Yue could speak, Sun Kai had already started to shout angrily, even reaching out to pry Chen Han’s hand away.

"Get lost!" Chen Han’s brows furrowed in anger, and he kicked Sun Kai away with a single foot.

He was here trying to salvage a love that was dying; what the hell was he messing around for.
