Chapter 296

Chapter 296: 0296 She is mine. Chapter 296: 0296 She is mine. “I never expected you two knew each other so early. I was worrying about your lifelong happiness to the point that I almost got involved myself p>

The atmosphere in the private room became somewhat odd; the temperature plunged suddenly, even thinning a bit.

Fu Qiyuan’s brows and eyes were heavy, as he looked coldly at Ye Zhichen.

“…But we’re not gay, so we’re destined to be just good friends in this life. Fortunately, your lifelong happiness is now resolved, and I can rest assured. I must say, you and President Fu together are a match made in heaven. I’ve never seen anyone more suited for each other. Xiao Ran, you must cherish it p>

Meeting Fu Qiyuan’s gaze, Ye Zhichen immediately shifted his tone.

It wasn’t that he was scared, but rather because the other party was too outrageously intense.

The air temperature gradually returned to normal, and the suffocating pressure started to fade away.

Ye Zhichen lowered his eyes and took a light sip of water from his glass, concealing his awkwardness.

Su Ran raised her eyebrows, unable to hide the smile at the corners of her mouth, looking at Ye Zhichen with great interest. This timid appearance was truly rare.

Ye Zhichen, pretending to be calm, poured himself a glass of water and then raised it steadily towards Fu Qiyuan.

The awkward expression on his face vanished completely, replaced by a serious and solemn air.

“This glass is for you two, President Fu. I don’t ask you to treat her well because I know my Xiao Ran would never put herself in a difficult position. I only hope that you will be sincere with her. It’s said that sincerity can book sincerity, but with her, it has become a luxury p>

“I don’t know how deep your feelings for Xiao Ran really are, nor how many difficulties you will face together in the future, but please don’t let go of her hand easily. She is foolish; if someone treats her sincerely, she can’t help but repay them threefold p>

“You said you would protect her from all worries in her lifetime, I believe you, and I trust that you can do it because you are truly outstanding. Don’t be deceived by her appearance; she’s not as strong as she looks. She just needs a hard shell to protect herself because there’s no one behind her p>

“Treat her well, don’t bully her, and if one day you fall out of love, please don’t hurt her. Call me, and I’ll take her away. As long as you return her to me unharmed, that’s enough p>

“Of course, I also hope that day never comes, so here’s to your happiness. I wish you both happiness p>

Su Ran’s nose felt sour, her eyes grew warm.

“Zhichen p>

Ye Zhichen smiled back at Su Ran.

“Xiao Ran, your happiness is my happiness, so you must be happier than anyone else p>

Su Ran felt warmth in her heart, utterly touched.

Fu Qiyuan observed the expressions of the two, his features profound.

Suddenly, he had the irrational feeling that he was superfluous, and for some reason, he did not like that feeling.

His fingers threaded through the girl’s–ten intertwined fingers–and Su Ran felt the grip on her hand tighten slightly.

“Mine p>

The man’s unexpected declaration left Su Ran and Ye Zhichen somewhat puzzled.

Fu Qiyuan’s dark eyes grew deeper as he spoke again.

“She’s mine p>

Ye Zhichen’s gaze fell on the two hands clasped tightly together, and at that moment, Fu Qiyuan also raised his glass towards her, smiling:

“Thank you for your blessings, and p>

“You won’t have that chance p>

Ye Zhichen smiled, “That’s for the best p>

Each drank a cup, a gesture of blessings and a promise!

Then the dishes arrived, and the group began to dine.
