Chapter 223: Is It Worth It?

Chapter 223: Chapter 223: Is It Worth It?

Xiyan cautiously reached out her hand and poked him, the sensation at her fingertips was so real.

"Idiot." Ou Jue’s deep gaze locked onto her, "You’re not hallucinating."

"B-but weren’t you supposed to stay in S City for two days?" Xiyan asked dumbly, "Did you come back early?"

Ou Jue took a step inside, placing the items on the dining table. "Come eat."

After closing the door, Xiyan hurriedly ran over. "Tell me, how did you suddenly appear in front of me?"

Just over an hour ago, the two of them were still a thousand kilometers apart.

But in the blink of an eye, he had miraculously appeared right in front of her.

Ou Jue casually took the food boxes out one by one, setting the chopsticks in place. "Because I have superpowers."

"What kind of superpower?"

"Instant Transfer."

Xiyan’s face lit up with excitement. "For real?!"

Ou Jue’s enchanting eyes flickered slightly, glancing at her in hopeless disdain. "Eat."

This "Instant Transfer" nonsense—only she would believe it. Even a toe would know he came back in a helicopter, okay?

The two of them sat across from each other at the dining table.

In front of them were seven or eight stir-fried dishes, along with steamed dumplings as the main dish. It was a feast, to say the least.

For some reason, the originally cold and lifeless house suddenly became infused with warmth.

Xiyan ate with gusto, feeling as though all her daytime frustrations had vanished in this very moment.

That blissful, sweet feeling spread from her heart to every part of her body.

"Ou Jue, you still haven’t told me, did you come back early?"

"No."

"Huh?" Xiyan bit her chopsticks, looking up in confusion.

Ou Jue, ever the epitome of elitism, sipped his soup with an expressionless face. "I’m leaving after the meal."

"!!" Don’t tell her this guy came all this way just to have a meal with her??

Xiyan choked on her food. "Cough, cough, cough..."

Her face turned bright red as she coughed.

Ou Jue quickly poured her a glass of water and muttered venomously, "Xia Xiyan, why don’t you just choke yourself to death already?"

Yet his hand gently rubbed her back with extraordinary care.

After swallowing some water, Xiyan stared at him in disbelief. "Excuse me, but aren’t you being ridiculous? A thousand kilometers just for dinner?"

"What? Not allowed?"

"Is it worth it?!"

"That’s none of your business."

Xiyan was left speechless, almost choked up with words unspoken.

Ou Jue, with his unmistakable air of "I’m rich, I’m the boss, I can do whatever I want," epitomized the face of a true Capitalist.

City folk sure know how to have fun!

After dinner, Ou Jue prepared to leave.

Xiyan walked him to the mouth of the alley, her head tilted up, eyes darting around. "Hey, boss, where’s your private jet?"

Let me see it too and broaden my horizons, will you?

The night air was chilly, and Ou Jue, wrapped in a black trench coat, stood with its hem billowing in the wind, exuding an overbearing aura.

Suddenly, he turned around, looking at her. "Xia Xiyan, do you know why I came back?"

"Emm... for dinner."

But Ou Jue abruptly pulled her arm.

Xiyan gasped in surprise, almost stumbling into his arms.

His thin lips moved close to her ear, his voice hoarse. "Because from now on, you’re no longer alone."

You have me.

Even if it means traveling thousands of miles just to have dinner, he would do it.

Because what’s truly important isn’t the meal.

It’s who you share it with.
