Hearing the sound, Ling Yue got up, dusted herself off, and went downstairs.

When I saw Jing Yan, I thought I was seeing things.

How did he know I was here?

"Big brother? What happened to you..."

Looking at his impeccably dressed and harmless appearance, Ling Yue felt inexplicably uneasy.

I really want to call Jing Yucheng.

"It's been a long time since I've seen my sister-in-law."

It hasn't been long since I went to his house in the middle of the night to look for Zhang Lei's ghost.

"I heard you opened a bar. We're all family here, and I just happened to be passing by, so I thought I'd come and check it out."

Jing Yan is quite "family".

He casually wandered around the ghost world and offered some "valuable" suggestions.

"You've given this shop a rather scary name, Ghostly World. Does that mean there are wandering ghosts here?"

This person is definitely a wolf in sheep's clothing.

She may appear cheerful and concerned about you, but in reality, she's testing whether she has ulterior motives for opening this shop.

"Well, I just graduated from university and was thinking of going out and trying my luck. I just thought the name was interesting after watching a movie, so I used it. It's not as scary as you make it out to be. I'm a very timid person."

"Haha, just kidding, just kidding. I saw Shiming in the family group saying he wanted to work at your shop, and he was trying to curry favor with Grandpa and Acheng. So, as the eldest brother, I have to do something, right? I'll take care of your drinks problem."

It's Su Shiming again! How can someone so young still have such a big mouth!

The beverage issue? Ling Yue was just worrying about how to find a supplier, and now this kind of good thing is being delivered to her doorstep?

Showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing.

"No need, no need, brother. I only have this small shop, it won't cost much."

"Just because you don't need it now doesn't mean you won't need it in the future. Supply, supply, it's all about having a continuous supply. You can make a comparison."

He then handed Ling Yue a business card.

Ling Yue had no choice but to step forward and catch it first.

Jing Yan gave Ling Yue a meaningful look, then turned and left.

……

Ling Yue glanced at the business card; it was pure black with gold lettering, and only contained her name and a phone number.

Jing Yan's actions are truly perplexing. Could it be that he already knows the real business he's about to do?

Ling Yue sent a WeChat message to Jing Yucheng.

Ling Yue: Jing Yucheng, your older brother just came to my shop!!!

I waited for a minute but no one replied.

Ling Yue: He inexplicably said he would provide me with the drinks from my shop and even gave me a business card.

Ling Yue: What kind of bizarre operation is this?

Ling Yue: I always feel like your older brother has some other motive...

Ling Yue was typing furiously in the chat interface when Jing Yucheng called her directly.

"Please send me the location of your shop; I'll head over there when I'm busy."

"You're busy with your own things, what are you doing here?"

"Let's talk about it when we meet."

This guy really doesn't utter a single pointless word.

After sending the location to Jing Yucheng, Ling Yue found a sunny booth and sat down.

He took out the nameless book that Jia Zhengjing had given him to prop up the table leg from his bag and started reading.

The text inside is obscure and difficult to understand, but the illustrations are indeed interesting and useful, making them easy to understand at a glance.

In fact, Ling Yue knew that she couldn't possibly master any ghost-catching skills just from a book.

But, people always need to have hope, right?

Just as she was engrossed in watching, Jing Yucheng sat down opposite her.

"What are you looking at so intently?"

Ling Yue was startled when she heard the sound.

"Emma, ​​do you walk without making a sound?"

Ling Yue pushed the business card that Jing Yan had given her in front of Jing Yucheng.

"Stay away from him."

"Don't worry about the supply issue, I've already taken care of it for you. You just need to explain your needs to the manager over there."

Jing Yucheng had already taken care of it for himself?

Why is he so concerned about his own affairs?

This person is a typical example of someone who appears cold on the outside but is warm on the inside.

"Um, Jing Yucheng, I've only just started. I probably can't afford the source of goods you mentioned..."

"Have you used up that 20 million? I'll arrange for Xiao Jia to transfer it to you again later."

"No, no, no, I didn't use it all. I only used two million to pay the rent. Don't worry, I will definitely pay it back with interest once I make money."

"You are my wife, what's mine is yours, don't say things like that again."

He hadn't mentioned it, and Ling Yue had completely forgotten about it.

“Jing Yucheng, I signed the marriage certificate that day as a last resort. My master, Jia Zhengjing, forced me to do it. I originally thought that as long as you didn't sign it, the marriage certificate wouldn't be valid. I didn't expect you to actually sign it. So, why don't we just forget about it? We're not really in love anyway, right?”

"Besides, even if the marriage certificate is valid, we haven't registered our marriage, so it doesn't count. Don't say scary things like 'I'm your wife' in the future."

Jing Yucheng looked at Ling Yue with an expression as if she were an idiot.

"You don't know that marriage certificate isn't an ordinary marriage certificate, do you?"

What do you mean?

It's just a piece of paper, isn't it?

Is there some other special meaning?

Seeing her blank expression, Jing Yucheng knew the answer was written all over his face.

Perhaps this is for the best; knowing nothing means fewer worries.

"Tomorrow, my grandfather and I will formally go to your house to propose marriage. We will go through all the proper marriage procedures."

Watching Jing Yucheng earnestly discuss their marriage with her, as if he were instructing a subordinate on work.

Why can't this person be reasoned with?

She shouldn't have brought this up in the first place.

Do you have work today?

Ling Yue put away the nameless book.

"You pushed it, so what?"

Just now, Ling Yue came up with a way to make Jing Yucheng "give up".

Hasn't he already considered himself his wife?

Isn't he socially anxious?

Let him experience firsthand that dating, marriage, and being together as a couple can be a very "troublesome" thing.

It's never too late to mend things before we get our marriage certificate.

"Am I not your wife? Haven't we even gone on a date yet?"

Ling Yue deliberately emphasized the word "wife," which was actually quite awkward to pronounce, and she got goosebumps the moment she said it.

"We've dated."

"When?"

How could she not know? This is probably the first time they've talked about their relationship face-to-face, isn't it?

"We've had three meals together, or rather, we've gone on three dates."

Does this guy have some kind of misunderstanding about the word "dating"?

Does having a meal count as a date?

Besides, how could there be three times?

As if afraid she wouldn't remember, Jing Yucheng specifically mentioned the three times they "dated" together.

"At your father's company's celebration banquet, at your home, at the airport restaurant."

Ling Yue was certain that this guy had no idea what dating between opposite sexes meant.

This is a primary school student struggling with romance.
