112 Rich People Are Willful

A cough interrupted the warm interaction between the two. The both of them simultaneously looked over and saw Ellen standing in the stairway.

"What is happening here?" He laughed as he slowly came down.

Tang Yan smiled, "It's nothing."

Ellen merely nodded his head before turning to Song Xia, who was staring at him. He raised his brows, "What is it?"

Song Xia pursed her lips tightly as she asked, "Are you feeling okay now? Has your fever subsided?"

Ellen nodded his head as he walked towards them.

Song Xia suspiciously closed in to him and tiptoed as she put her palm on his forehead, which startled both Ellen and Tang Yan.

"Mmh, fever is gone but you should still rest well.." She murmured softly.

Ellen stood frozen in his spot until Song Xia retracted her hands. She coughed and then asked the question that was bothering her the most.

"...You're going to China?"

Ellen shook his head, "No."

Song Xia was about to say that he should stay for a while and recuperate his health, but her words got stuck on her mouth when she heard his unexpected reply.

Dumbfounded, she stared at him in shock, "...What?!"

Ellen blinked as his lips curled up, "You're not happy that I'm not going?"

Song Xia immediately spoke, "No, no I'm very happy! But.. Why?"

"No reason. I just don't feel like going." Ellen beamed brightly as he walked to the dining table and seated himself on the chair.

"..."

Song Xia fought the urge to roll her eyes at him. It was surely an eye-opener for her today!

Earlier she had been racking her brains about how to persuade him to not go back but this guy actually said that he wouldn't go just because he didn't want to!

So infuriating! Rich people are so willful! Wait.. She was also rich.. Hmph, but this guy's name literally means money! (Qian means Money literally)

She harrumphed and sat down to start digging in the sumptuous meal. Tang Yan also silently sat beside Ellen.

After eating her food, Song Xia felt her anger gradually dissipating as she devoured the food happily.

In front of her, Tang Yan kept picking food for her but was suddenly stopped by Ellen.

"What?" Tang Yan was perplexed.

"I'll do it." Ellen said with a dark face.

"Why, can't I do it?" He indignantly spoke.

"No." Ellen shot him a cold glare, which made him feel chilly all of a sudden.

Song Xia looked down at the pile of food in her bowl and helplessly looked at the bickering duo, "Can you two stop?"

Tang Yan was still livid as he pointed at Ellen, "He started it first!"

The latter coldly glared at him before turning to Song Xia to give her food and saying tenderly, "Eat more, you're too skinny."

Aish, these grown-up men still act like kids! So childish!

She set down her chopsticks and took a deep breath, "I'm repeating again, if you don't stop right now, I'm leaving this house!"

Utter silence befell the dining room. Song Xia sighed in relief. 'Finally, I can eat in peace..'

Ellen looked at her joyful face and expressionlessly reminded her, "Xia, didn't you promise me that you won't leave this house? Did you forget?"

Tang Yan nodded his head vigorously. Song Xia was instantly stupefied. She did recall saying so before though..

Actually, it had happened long ago. Very very long ago. So long ago that the author literally forgot to mention it.

Then she also ran into trouble by the daughter of the partner. Sigh, alas, the girl had to go behind the bars in her prime youth.

As for the promise, that Ellen kept holding her hand shamelessly so she blurted that she'd do anything without even thinking twice.

Who knew that this dude would actually remember the promise?

So when she was prepared to move out a few days ago, Ellen used this against her to prevent her from leaving.

'This shameless guy!'

Song Xia had almost forgotten about that embarrassing day, but now that Ellen reminded her, memories kept flashing in her mind as she started blushing red.

'He just had to remind me when I almost forgot that! In my 20 years, I've never been so flustered in my life! Who knew that I'm here blushing like a little girl!'

To not let anyone else see her red burning face, Song Xia buried her head on her bowl and hastily ate.

She then tried to divert her mind from that but no matter how she tried, the memory of her hand being kissed by Ellen kept surfacing in her mind and made her heart race.

Tang Yan looked at her burying her head in the plate and eating seriously as he asked. "Do you have something on today?"

Song Xia first swallowed the food before nodding her head, "Yes, I have a photoshoot later. Why?"

"Bring some bodyguards with you."

Hearing his words, Song Xia became quiet and then agreed after a while, since she understood her situation well.

That man, who was seeking her, wouldn't give up so easily. It would be much safer and convenient with guards around her than being all alone.

At the side, Ellen sighed, "It's also better for you to stay in the house for a while and postpone your current pending schedules for later."

Song Xia smiled as she wiped her mouth with a tissue, "I will." She then stood up and took her bag, "I'll get going niw."

"Wait!" Two voices resounded in unison. Song Xia tilted her head at the two of them in confusion. "What?"

Tang Yan and Ellen glanced at each other. Ellen spoke before the former could, "Let me drop you off."

Song Xia shook her head, "No, it's okay-"

"No, let US drop you off." Tang yan interrupted her.

Helpless, Song Xia looked at the two of them before sighing and finally agreed. "Fine."
