Chapter 439: Chapter 438: (3 more updates)

No matter if she was overthinking or not, Xu Niannian decided to nip this possibility in the bud.

Seizing on his topic, she laughed and said, "I won’t come here every day. I’m only here recently because the shop just opened, and I was afraid the staff might be unclear about some things. Once they’re familiar with the process, I won’t come over anymore, especially since I’m not in the best condition right now."

"Not in the best condition?" He seemed to hesitate for a moment, his voice trailing off as he looked at her with a puzzled expression in his eyes.

Xu Niannian’s hand rested on her belly, where she and Jin Yu’s baby was growing.

Thinking of the baby, her eyes involuntarily softened with tenderness: "I’m pregnant, so it’s not very convenient," she explained.

"Is that so?" He suddenly understood, then his smile was genuine as he said, "Congratulations."

Xu Niannian had paid attention to his reaction. Seeing that there wasn’t a hint of disappointment in his eyes when she mentioned the baby, Xu Niannian fully relaxed.

Alright, she really was overthinking it. Uncle Ye might really have been just a bit more enthusiastic in his youth and had no other intentions towards her.

Convinced that Ye Tian harbored no romantic interest in her, Xu Niannian’s smile became a few degrees more natural.

Little did she know, the warmth in Ye Tian’s eyes subtly changed as she looked down.

The emotions in his eyes shifted quickly, too fast for bystanders to catch.

Xu Niannian sat with him for a while before she went to attend to other customers.

The business in the shop was gradually picking up.

Xiaochun, Lili, and the others were all busy, and Xu Niannian was helping out as well.

When Ye Tian left, he came over to say goodbye to Xu Niannian.

As Xu Niannian went to clean up the milk tea cups, she noticed that Ye Tian had finished his drink.

It seemed that Uncle Ye really enjoyed her milk tea.

Seeing him at the door, checking his watch from time to time as if he was waiting for someone, Xu Niannian grabbed a plastic cup that she had purchased, brewed another portion of milk tea, and ran out with it.

Ye Tian was still there.

"Uncle Ye... Mr. Ye!" Xu Niannian almost said ’Uncle Ye’ again and narrowly avoided it, sticking out her tongue in relief.

Ye Tian had turned around as soon as he heard her footsteps.

She was wearing a tender green dress with ruffled collars, revealing her delicately beautiful collarbone.

The tender green color made her skin appear even whiter. She seemed to be vexed about something, and the look of exasperation on her face as she stuck out her tongue was particularly lively.

This was a woman of extreme beauty, as if every cell of her emitted a loveliness unique to her, causing Ye Tian’s attention to waver slightly.

"Uncle Ye...?" He smiled and said, "I recall this is the second time you’ve mistaken my name. Do I really resemble someone you know?"

Oops, he had heard her slip. Xu Niannian was even more vexed, feeling her mouth really had no filter.

Actually calling out ’Uncle Ye’ might have actually made Uncle Ye angry, considering he looked so young and handsome.

He would probably be displeased to be called ’uncle’.

In reality, she had already blurted out ’Uncle Ye’ once, but she had forgotten.

Going along with his words, she explained, "Yeah, you do resemble someone I know. His name is Uncle Ye."

"Is that so?"

Ye Tian’s lips remained curled into a faint smile, and seeing the milk tea in her hand, he asked, "Did you need something from me?"

Ah, Xu Niannian finally remembered why she was there.

Holding the milk tea out to him, she said, "Ye... I saw you really enjoyed the milk tea, and since you drove me home last time, let me treat you to a cup this time."

"But I already had one," he said, looking at her with interest.

"This is handcrafted milk tea; it can last a day. If you like, you can take it home and heat it up in the evening or have it cold," she offered.

"Thank you," Ye Tian said, taking it with a smile, careful not to touch her fingers.

After handing over the milk tea, Xu Niannian returned to the shop, where Xiaochun came up to her, giggling, "Boss, who’s that handsome guy? He seems to like you."

"Nonsense." Xu Niannian pretended to knock on her head, "I’m already married."

Xiaochun and the others hadn’t yet seen what Xu Niannian’s husband looked like.

They all witnessed Xu Niannian’s beauty and felt that she deserved a handsome man like Ye Tian.

Hearing her say she was married, Xiaochun expressed her pity: "What a shame."

"A shame about what?" Xu Niannian laughed, "Are you sorry that such a handsome guy didn’t give you a feast for the eyes? If you like him, go after him yourself."

"I wish I could," giggled Xiaochun, "but he would also have to fancy me, wouldn’t he?"

"So what’s there to pity?" Xu Niannian asked, smiling.

Since Xiaochun, Lili, and the third were close to her age and had lively personalities, they all got along well.

Shaking her head helplessly, Xiaochun replied, "Boss, I’m feeling sorry for you. You got married so early. If not, maybe you could have had a chance with that handsome guy... hehehe."

Xiaochun left her sentence hanging, replacing the rest with a lascivious laugh.

But talking more about it was pointless since Xu Niannian was already married.

Xu Niannian chuckled to herself, "Don’t feel sorry for me; my husband is even better-looking."

Was her Jin Yu being underrated?

One day she’d bring him around to the shop for the girls to have a good look, so they wouldn’t pity or feel regretful later.

Not to mention she only thought of Ye Tian as an elder from a past life, even if he weren’t, Xu Niannian couldn’t possibly have anything to do with him.

He just wasn’t her type.

Compared with him, she much preferred the tough-guy type like Jin Yu.

Not to mention anything else, he had a great physique and was both rogueish and shameless.
