Chapter 53 - Consecutive Phantom

After that, the dishes were served. Although they were delicate and tasty, Zhou Xing Chen had lost all appetite when he thought of Yan Du An's greedy face as he stared at Liang Jia's sparkling eyes.

He saw Liang Jia, who was sitting across from him, eating with relish, as if she was immersed in the joy of reuniting with her old friend. Zhou Xing Chen sighed in his heart. It was enough for him to protect her, this muddle-headed little wife of his.

After they finished eating, Zhou Xing Chen and Liang Jia returned to their rooms to rest.

The next morning, the Maldives did not seem to have a cloudy day. The sun was always high in the sky, scorching the earth.

They found a table close to the window and sat down. The moment Zhou Xing Chen flipped open the menu, he heard a voice that he loathed the most.

"This dessert isn't good, there's no need to order it."

"Yan Du An?" Liang Jia was surprised and a little happy. "Why are you here?"

Yan Duuan continued to ignore Zhou Xing Chen's expression as he sat down. "It's probably …" He winked at Liang Jia. "Fate …"

Zhou Xing Chen's face was still as sullen as ever. Just as he was about to scold him and leave, Yan Zhi'an shot him a stern look. "I came here with a friend today." He waved at a tall European who waved back, "You see, I didn't mean to disturb you." If you meet an old friend, you have to come over to say hello. "

"Yes, yes, yes," Liang Jia helplessly said. She knew Zhou Xing Chen very well, and seeing his sullen face, she knew that he was very angry. In order to prevent Zhou Xing Chen from going berserk, she quickly sent him off, "Now that we've said hello, you can leave. Go to your friend's side."

Yan Du An shrugged his shoulders, "Alright, since that's the case, enjoy yourselves." After saying that, he carried the wine cup back to the other table, but his gaze still drifted towards Liang Jia, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

Zhou Xing Chen complained.

Liang Jia burst out laughing. Seeing Zhou Xing Chen's expression darken, she quickly pulled his hand back and said sternly, "I won't bother with him."

Hearing Liang Jia's words, Zhou Xing Chen's expression softened a little.

The dishes were served one after another. They were all very rich dishes that couldn't be eaten at home. As for the taste, it was also very exquisite in terms of its appearance.

Halfway through their meal, Zhou Xing Chen said that he wanted to go to the washroom. Liang Jia nodded, and he left.

Liang Jia's appetite moved, and she just kept eating. Suddenly, a black shadow appeared in front of him.

Liang Jia raised her head and looked into a pair of eyes that were filled with a smile yet not a smile.

"Zhou Xing Chen left?" Yan Duan sat down opposite of Liang Jia, the seat that Zhou Xing Chen had just occupied.

Sweeping a glance at the dishes on the table without leaving a trace, he smiled at Liang Jia and said, "The things you order are quite tasteful."

Liang Jia smiled. "Xing Chen ordered."

Hearing her mention Zhou Xing Chen, the expression in her eyes darkened. Her tone was full of concern, and her pretty eyes looked at Liang Jia seriously. "Are you alright?"

Liang Jia nodded. "It's pretty good." Thinking back to not too long ago, there had clearly been so many misunderstandings and contradictions between them. Who would have thought that now … Liang Jia revealed a sweet, blissful smile.

Looking at that bright smile, Yan Guansan felt as if all the plants in the courtyard had bloomed into flowers.

Right now, she was truly blissful, but unfortunately, this happiness wasn't brought to her by herself. Instead, it was brought to her by another man, Zhou Xing Chen.

Thinking of this, his tone became a little hesitant: "You …. "Why did you marry Zhou Xing Chen?"

"I love him." As if she were stating a matter that should be taken for granted, Liang Jia answered without the slightest hesitation. His words that had just been smeared with honey caused Yan Duanzhan's heart to hurt severely.

He wanted to ask, What about me? He was afraid of hearing her answer, just like how he was afraid to see her for a period of time, and he was a coward after all …

His seat suddenly shook. He almost fell off his seat. He ran forward a few steps before stabilizing his body.

He straightened his collar, frowning as he looked over. It was Zhou Xing Chen.

At this moment, Zhou Xing Chen's expression was as cold as ice. Both his hands were clenched into fists, and his eyes glinted with a terrifying light, as if he wanted to devour everything in sight.

This was the first time that Yan Duanan did not dare to joke around.

"F * ck off." Zhou Xing Chen spat out the word.

Liang Jia watched this scene helplessly. Knowing that she couldn't say anything, she kept silent.

"Looks like I have to bother you." Yan Guian smiled bitterly, "Then, I'll disappear first. See you later."

As he said this, he went back to his seat to pick up his coat and hat. After bidding farewell to his friends at the table, he pushed open the door and left.

Liang Jia looked at the furious Zhou Xing Chen, saying gently, "Don't be angry, eat your meal."

Zhou Xing Chen snorted. "You said you wouldn't bother with him."

Liang Jia was startled. "He doesn't …" "What are you going overboard for?" He thought for a moment before adding, "I just miss my friends."

Liang Jia was stunned. After he hung up the phone, she asked, "You're going back so soon?"

"Hmph!" Zhou Xing Chen bit hard on his tongue. "Isn't it all because of you?"

It was ten in the evening, and darkness had just begun to fall. Zhou Xing Chen and Liang Jia dragged their luggage to the airport and bought a first class cabin. After they took their seats, they adjusted their chairs. Just as she was about to speak to Liang Jia, a light flashed in her eyes and her entire body froze.

Zhou Xing Chen felt that Yan Yu An had already reached the peak of perfection.

Seeing him greet Liang Jia with a surprised look on her face, and even casually sit down next to Liang Jia, Zhou Xing Chen's scheme succeeded.

Zhou Xing Chen didn't know where he found out he had changed his contract, but he felt a fire burning in his heart. He thought to himself, 'Throw this gentle looking man off the plane, and he'll never again be in my way!'

It was as if he didn't see Zhou Xing Chen's angry gaze. He spoke to Liang Jia with a mischievous smile as he talked about the matters of his university days.

At times, it was the changes amongst the students, and at other times it was the interesting things that had happened in the past few years. After chatting for a while, Zhou Xing Chen felt that he had to stop them, otherwise they would have to look into the future.

"Jia Jia Jia," Zhou Xing Chen said. "Let's change seats."

For a moment, both Liang Jia and Yan An's expressions changed.

Liang Jia didn't think that Zhou Xing Chen would call her so intimately, to say nothing of her … He did not want to imagine how hard this journey would have been if he had been next to Zhou Xing Chen.
