Chapter 240 Backing off
The car moved forward steadily, and Li Yiyan saw all the abnormal behaviors along the way.
Her empty eyes, overly quiet posture, and the nervousness that she inadvertently revealed all revealed her inner unrest.
However, Li Yiyan just watched calmly without asking any questions. He knew Yunyun's character very well, and if she had something to say, she would take the initiative to tell him.
In this slightly dull atmosphere in the carriage, his thoughts drifted away quietly. He silently thought in his heart that today might not be a suitable day to confess his feelings.
Looking at Yunyun's current state, she was clearly in a bad mood. Would it be an extra burden for her to reveal her true feelings in this state? Would it make her feel embarrassed and at a loss?
His heart was full of entanglement and hesitation. On the one hand, he wanted to express his true feelings, but on the other hand, he had to consider Yunyun's feelings. This contradictory psychology kept pulling at him.
During the one-hour drive, the two seemed calm on the surface, but in fact, their hearts were already turbulent.
The car finally arrived at its destination, a riverside restaurant hidden in a corner of a bustling city.
The appearance of the restaurant is low-key yet luxurious. Warm yellow light shines through the tall windows, sprinkling on the marble floor at the door, casting a soft halo.
As soon as I walked to the door of the restaurant, a waiter in exquisite uniform and with a smile on his face quickly came to greet me.
The waiter was already preparing to ask if anyone had a reservation out of habit; this was the standard procedure for receiving every visitor.
However, the moment her eyes touched Li Yiyan's face, the question that was about to come out of her mouth was swallowed, and she changed her words and said, "Sir, Madam, please follow me."
Then, the waiter led them gracefully through a corridor towards the private room.
The corridor is filled with a light scent of incense, soothing and peaceful, as if paving the way for the upcoming romantic moment.
Soon, they arrived at the door of the private room. The waiter gently pushed open the heavy carved wooden door.
In an instant, the dreamlike scene in the private room came into Yunyun's eyes. She couldn't help but look surprised and subconsciously covered her mouth slightly.
In the private room, the main light was cleverly dimmed to create an ambiguous and mysterious atmosphere.
There are some warm yellow string lights arranged on the surrounding walls and corners.
Wherever your eyes move, you can see some scented candles in glass covers, which are carefully placed on tables, windowsills, etc.
The candlelight flickered, emitting a hazy and charming halo through the glass cover, and a faint scent of vanilla and rose drifted away, lingering in the nose, making people intoxicated.
The ground was covered with layers of rose petals, extending from the door all the way to the center of the private room, as if it was a sacred road leading to the palace of love.
On the walls of the private room, pink silk fabric adds a touch of romance and tenderness to the entire space.
Looking at the corners and tables of the private room, there were several exquisite crystal vases filled with red roses.
There are pink heart-shaped balloons hanging from the ceiling and walls, swaying in groups of two or three or alone.
This scene is so romantic that anyone who sees it will instantly think of a love confession scene.
The moment Yunyun saw the scene in the private room, a thought flashed through her mind: Do I need to stop testing her? Is Y Bao going to confess his love to me?
However, just as Yunyun was immersed in her own fantasy world, Li Yiyan's words were like a bucket of cold water that ruthlessly extinguished the fire of hope that had just ignited in her heart.
"Don't get me wrong, I didn't know that beforehand. Maybe all the private rooms in this restaurant are arranged like this."
His voice was still calm, but it sounded particularly cold and harsh in Yunyun's ears, like a sharp sword that easily pierced her fragile bubble of fantasy.
The corners of Yunyun's mouth, which were originally slightly raised and full of expectation, collapsed quickly like a flower that lost its support the moment she heard these words.
She tried hard to hide her inner disappointment and embarrassment, and said calmly, "Don't worry, I didn't misunderstand. Y Bao, let's go in."
In that tone of voice that tried to be relaxed, there was a hint of an imperceptible tremor, as if her broken heart was sobbing silently.
Since Li Yiyan was standing behind Yunyun just now, he did not catch the surprise and expectation on Yunyun's face.
All he saw was Yunyun's back standing there in a daze. In addition, he remembered Yunyun's state in the car.
It was for this reason that he instinctively made such an explanation in an attempt to resolve possible misunderstandings and embarrassment.
After hearing Yunyun's answer, Li Yiyan suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of relief. He thought to himself that perhaps he had made the right decision by not making a hasty confession.
After all, he keenly sensed a hint of displeasure and coldness in Yunyun's tone just now.
After the two entered the private room, the waiter who led them there was full of confusion, as if he was in a fog, with a bewildered expression on his face.
Her thoughts could not help but drift back to noon. Li Yiyan came to the restaurant alone, with a hint of nervousness and anticipation on his face. His serious look was still imprinted in her mind.
At that time, it was she who led Li Yiyan to this private room. That was why when she saw Li Yiyan at the door, she skipped the step of asking if he had a reservation and directly welcomed him in.
The waiter clearly remembered all the furnishings in this private room. Except for some scented candles provided by the restaurant, everything else was arranged by Li Yiyan himself.
Looking at the private room that Li Yiyan had carefully decorated, the waiter praised sincerely: "Sir, you decorated it very well. Your girlfriend will definitely be happy to see it. It's really sincere that you decorated it yourself."
However, Li Yiyan paused for a moment, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes, and he said, "I don't have a girlfriend."
Just as the waiter didn't know how to respond and stood there awkwardly, Li Yiyan continued, "But I'm going to confess my feelings. I should have a girlfriend soon."
The waiter sincerely wished him well, "Sir, I wish you a successful confession."
But who would have thought that in just one afternoon, the confession scene that Li Yiyan carefully arranged by himself became what he called "the restaurant private room is decorated like this"
The waitress couldn't understand this huge change. When she saw the two of them, she thought they were a good match. What a pity...
