Chapter 1832: Chapter 1833: Helping Her Out of a Tight Spot
"These coffee beans were brought back from Brazil by Shengxiaoâs uncle as a local specialty. I tried them once, and theyâre very aromatic. Itâs much more fragrant than the coffee made from European beans. I added some creamer to your cup, try it."
Rong Yan looked at the cake specially prepared for her and the brewed coffee, and felt a pang of guilt knowing she was about to go out.
She walked over hesitantly, unsure how to start, "Mrs. Lin, I..."
Lin Zhiya placed the coffee on the table, turned around upon hearing her and smiled effortlessly, "Whatâs the matter, why are you stammering? You can tell me directly if anythingâs wrong, no need to feel embarrassed."
She referred to herself as âmomâ quite naturally.
Naturally, Rong Yanâs earlobes became hot.
"Actually, I..."
Lin Zhiya looked at her with a gentle, doting expression, waiting for her to continue.
Under Lin Zhiyaâs tender gaze, Rong Yan felt her throat clogged as if with cotton; she couldnât bring herself to say she was going out soon and couldnât join her for a late-night snack.
She couldnât bear to disappoint her...
Lin Zhiya grew impatient, beckoning her over and saying with a gentle smile, "If itâs hard to say now, letâs not rush. Come, sit down, have some coffee, eat a piece of cake, and tell me when you feel ready, thereâs no need to worry."
Rong Yan found it even harder to speak!
Fortunately, at this moment, someone came down from the second floor.
Li Shengxiaoâs voice broke in, "Mom, Iâm taking Rong Yan out for a bit."
"?" Lin Zhiya, displeased, "Where are you taking Yan so late at night? Yan just got back, not even letting her rest."
A hand slid around Rong Yanâs waist pulling her close, his voice low and affectionate, "Taking her on a date."
"Itâs so late, and itâs cold outside..."
Li Shengxiao, standing tall, smirked slightly, "Do you still want to have a granddaughter?"
Grand, granddaughter? What granddaughter? How can he say something so shameless? And saying it as if having a child is as simple as holding a meeting or doing homework.
Rong Yanâs ears turned bright red, and her heart started beating faster. Her small hand discreetly found a spot where Lin Zhiya couldnât see and pinched his waist.
She felt the tense muscles under her hand, and for an inexplicable reason, her heart raced even more. She let go before he even spoke.
"Will you be back tonight?" Lin Zhiya suddenly changed her tone quicker than anyone else, joyfully saying, "Go on, go on, young people should get out more. Donât come back tonight, itâs nice to occasionally spend a night at a hotel. Which hotel are you staying at? Should I call ahead and have them prepare a room for you?"
Itâs obvious what sheâs thinking.
Rong Yan felt a bit embarrassed.
"The ocean-view rooms at Jinyue are nice. Oh, just the location is too far, driving there takes two hours. If youâre watching a movie downtown, Crown Holiday Hotel is nice too, itâs apparently part of our family. Donât they have a special suite for you over there?"
Li Shengxiao cast a glance at the girl blushing in his arms, reminding her, "Mom, if you keep talking, Rong Yan wonât go."
Lin Zhiya looked over at him, noticing Rong Yanâs flushed cheeks, immediately correcting herself, "Yan, Mom is worried you might not have a place to stay if youâre out late, no other meaning. Iâll ask them to keep both those rooms for you, have fun out there, donât rush back, I wonât wait up for you. Just relax and go enjoy yourself with Shengxiao."
