Lu Chen said, "You don't have enough ingredients, do you need me to ask someone to buy some ingredients for you?"

"This..." Joey was a little moved, "It's just that the vegetable market for buying ingredients is a bit far away, and I'm worried that it will be too late."

"It's too late to change to another means of transportation." He glanced at the time, "Give me the list of ingredients."

Joey's eyes lit up immediately, "Is it really possible?"

"how much time is required?"

"About... half an hour." Joey worried, "It takes an hour to go back and forth from here to the vegetable market, and it may be too late."

"Stay as long as possible."

Lu Chen took the ingredients list, took a photo and sent it out.

"It's that simple?" Seeing that Lu Chen had put away his phone, with his hands behind his back, Joey asked in surprise as he looked at the kitchen utensils in the kitchen leisurely.

"You know? The advantage of being a boss is that you only need to make decisions."

"Oh……"

At this time, an assistant's voice came from behind, "Chef, is this dish going to be served now?"

"Sorry, I have to be busy." Joey apologized.

"Go ahead and leave me alone."

Lu Chen stood at the door, watching Joey's busy movements, his eyes were a little weird, Joey only felt that the sharpness was on his back, and his scalp was numb from Lu Chen's stare.

"Mr. Lu Chen, are you really okay?"

"It's okay." Lu Chen slightly hooked his lips.

When Joey continued to work, he could still feel the substantial gaze following him.

At the same time, Lin Yi pulled Jing He out of the store and came to an ice cream truck next to him, "Jing He, what's going on with you?"

"what?"

"Don't play dumb, you know what I'm talking about."

Lin Yi frowned, "What's the matter between you and Yi Nian? Why did you suddenly separate? Why did you find another boyfriend so soon?"

"What? Are you saying I'm skittish?"

Jing He's face seemed to be covered with a thin layer of ice, "Xiaoyi, I didn't know you would miss me so much."

"no……"

Lin Yi hurriedly explained, "When you and Yi Nian are together, that's the real happiness. I don't want to see you separated because of some misunderstanding or other things. You two..."

"Okay, Xiaoyi."

Jing He interrupted her, "Let's find a place to have a good talk."

The two had an ice cream in each hand, and Jing He pulled Lin Yi to lie comfortably on the recliner, "I'm very tired."

After a long silence, Jing He finally spoke, "Being with Yi Nian is very tiring."

She sighed, "I know, you are worried about me, is it because of anger or other reasons, impulsive, so..."

She turned her head to look at Lin Yi, her tone was very sincere, "Actually, it's not."

"really?"

"I thought a lot when we separated. I thought we had a future, but later I found out that I was wrong. I'm just an ugly duckling. How can I be worthy of such a young master? Now it's fine."

As if to vent his anger, Jing He took a bite of the ice cream.

Lin Yi turned her head to look at her, "No matter what decision you make, I will support you, but when you left half a month ago, you didn't call me and tell me..."

"What did I tell you?"

Jing He looked at Lin Yi with his chin resting on one hand, blinked his eyes, "Then I've forgotten everything before."

"Jing He, don't run away anymore. Although I can't control your thoughts, I'm really worried about you..."

Half a month ago, when Jing He called her so happily, Lin Yi thought that the problem between them had been resolved, but now it seems that Jing He got into a corner.

"Don't persuade me, I know that, as a good sister, you just have to support me all the time."

After a while, Lin Yi looked at the children playing in the water not far away, and murmured as if talking to himself.

"This period of time is very important to Yi Nian. He is probably in a brutal competition with several people. At this time, what he needs most is the encouragement of his lover."

"compete?"

Jing He suddenly frowned and asked, "Isn't he the only heir of the Jing family? Why are you still competing?"

"Don't you know?" Lin Yi raised an eyebrow.

"what?"

"The Jing family chooses the head of the family differently from other families. Even if there is only one heir left in the direct line, they will choose some outstanding juniors from the collateral line to compete together. According to Lu Chen, the competition is very fierce."

"Will it be like this? Why don't I know?" Jing He asked suspiciously.

Lin Yi threw the phone to Jing He, "Search directly, there are also online."

"is it?"

Jing He's hand holding the phone trembled a little, Lin Yi looked at her slightly trembling eyelashes with satisfaction, it seemed that Jing He did not let him go.

Through Lu Chen, Lin Yi understands that Yi Nian has indeed had a hard time these past few years. Jing He is his first love, and his love for Jing He is not weaker than that of Lu Chen back then. He is paranoid and desperate.

As for Jing He...

She had been emotionally hurt before. In these years, it was the first time she saw Jing He laughing like this, with such joy from the heart, her feelings for Yi Nian were beyond words.

Since the two love each other deeply, no amount of difficulties should separate them.

Half a month ago, Jing He still had hope for this relationship, so happy, Lin Yi seemed to have seen the scene of Jing He walking into the palace of happiness in a wedding dress, happy and consummated.

So, what exactly happened that made Jing He feel ashamed in this short period of half a month?
"So this is ah……"

Jing He threw the phone to Lin Yi, ate up the ice cream that was about to melt, and lay on the recliner looking at the sky in a daze.

Lin Yi glanced at her and lay down too, a warm atmosphere gradually circulated between the two of them.

"I feel sorry for him."

I don't know how long it took before Jing He spoke.

"That……"

"But we can't go back, we can't go back again."

"You... make up your own mind. I've already said everything that needs to be said." Lin Yi sighed and said helplessly.

She knew that this matter had left ripples in Jing He's heart.

Although she didn't know the reason why Jing He's heart was ashamed, she still wanted to tell her about it. As for the most important decision, she had no right to interfere.

At this time, two cars were slowly parked in front of the store. There was a pickup truck in front and a black car behind. After the black car opened, several well-trained men in black got out of the car and lined up.

This kind of movement immediately attracted the attention of many people.

The door of the minivan opened, and the men in black brought the purchased ingredients into the store in batches.

This action lasted less than 3 minutes, and the black-clothed bodyguards and the pickup truck quickly disappeared.

Jing He stood up in shock, "What's going on?"
