Chapter 459 - Unexpected Visitor at Midnight
“You go, I’ll call at night.” Fang Chixia was very insistent about not going.
It was impossible for Luo Yibei to force her to do anything, so he had no choice but to plan the trip on his own.
He’d be going to Northern Ireland on a business trip, which Luo Enqi had scheduled two days ago, roughly for 10 days.
After speaking to Fang Chixia, he left the next day. Fang Chixia sent him to the airport.
Luo Yibei still remembered Fang Chixia saying that she would call him at night, but in the next few days, there wasn’t a single record of her call on his phone.
After three busy days, he finally got a domestic call, but it turned out to be… Su Ran’s.
Looking at the caller’s name that was too far from his expectations, Luo Yibei’s face was stiffened.
“Ranran, can I help you?”
“Yibei, where are you? I’m here in Northern Ireland too. I might stay here for a while before I leave, but I don’t know the area well. Would it be okay if you picked me up at the airport?”
“Okay, wait for me for a while.”
After a brief conversation, Luo Yibei hung up.
Su Ran also traveled for work, just like him.
It was true that she was unfamiliar with the place, even less familiar than in China, and it was impossible for Luo Yibei to leave her alone in a foreign country.
He brought her back to the hotel and when booking a room, Su Ran booked the one next to him.
“You’ve been on such a long flight, go to bed early!”
It was already late at night, so upon returning to the floor where his room was, Luo Yibei dropped a word and turned around towards his room, but Su Ran stopped him. “I’m not tired yet. I didn’t eat much on the plane. Are you free for a stroll with me?”
Luo Yibei lifted his watch and looked at the time, 11:30.
He hesitated for a moment, but still walked out with her.
Su Ran seemed to be in high spirits. The pair walked around for a long time without choosing a single restaurant they wanted to go to. They ended up walking through several streets, and by the time they managed to find a restaurant, it was already after midnight.
“It’s been a long time since we’ve been out together as late as this!” Su Ran sat down with a smile. She was clearly the one who said she was hungry before they came out, but she only ordered a small portion of foie gras.
Luo Yibei didn’t move a muscle and just stared at her. In his head, he naturally thought of Fang Chixia.
Fang Chixia never cared about image or whatnot in front of him. Hungry was hungry. When eating, ordering a big pile of food was never enough. When still not full, she would even help him settle his share.
But, Su Ran was the total opposite. In his memory, Su Ran always seemed to be a ladylike. Her every word and move were very much the demeanor of a debutante. Even if she was hungry, she would only eat a small portion and in small bites.
Compared to her personality, Luo Yibei actually liked Fang Chixia more. She did what she wanted and lived for herself.
Reminded of her, his eyes couldn’t help but look at his phone once more.
She didn’t even call him once!
“Yibei, would you like to have a taste?” Su Ran sliced a small chunk of food from her plate and smilingly sent it to him with a fork.
Luo Yibei stared at it and averted his gaze as if nothing had happened. “I’m not hungry. You eat. I’ll wait for you outside and blow off some steam by the way.”
After saying that, he stood up and walked straight out.
