Chapter 38 - 37: Be Happy
Chapter 36 You Must Be Happy
The two of them went to a restaurant opposite the school, where Jiang An took the opportunity to thank Brother Wei Yan for celebrating her birthday the day before by treating him to a meal. Knowing that Jiang An didn’t like to be indebted to others, Wei Yan agreed and handed the menu to Jiang An, who was sitting across from him.
For Wei Yan, everything that happened last night was like a dream. He was still confused when he woke up this morning. He wanted to clear things up by asking Jiang An out, but she refused, so he could only secretly contact her roommate. Discovering that she was heading to the library, he waited at the entrance. Now that he finally had the chance to sit down and eat with Jiang An, he couldn’t bring himself to ask the question.
Both were silent at the dining table until Jiang An took the initiative to break the awkward atmosphere with more words of thanks. The waiter came to serve the dishes, and Jiang An introduced the small dishes that she often enjoyed at this restaurant with a smile.
Wei Yan, who had been silent, took the chopsticks from Jiang An. He had no appetite and asked bluntly, "Did you really marry Dr. Gao?"
Jiang An’s movements stiffened as she was about to serve food to Wei Yan. She remembered much of the previous night and naturally knew why Wei Yan had come to her today, but how should she bring up the marriage with Gao Chuan, which was a pretense staged just for show?
Noticing the stiffness on Jiang An’s face, Wei Yan’s heart hung in suspense, and he raised his voice, "Is there some misunderstanding between you two? If you’re in any trouble, just tell me, and I’ll help you solve it."
Wei Yan’s words were filled with genuine concern and sincerity, causing a tremor in Jiang An’s heart. On the surface, however, she remained calm and lightly laughed off his suspicions.
"No, Brother Wei Yan, Dr. Gao and I got married out of a normal romantic relationship. There’s no misunderstanding."
