After work, Rao Jie subtly expressed her hope that Wu Rong would stop frequenting their shop. However, Wu Rong's temper was not one to heed Rao Jie’s words; even when faced with harassment, he refused to back down. Later, Ye Ming heard about the situation and decided to accompany Wu Rong to the Dessert Shop, which only increased their popularity.
With Ye Ming acting as a shield, Wu Rong could quietly read for a while. When Rao Jie came to deliver drinks, Ye Ming was chatting with two beautiful women and said, "What? You ladies want his WeChat? Oh no, he’s under strict orders from his wife. Just wait until his wife gets off work; don’t make it hard for him."
The two women felt a bit disappointed when they saw Rao Jie. Wu Rong looked up and asked, "Can I leave work early today?"
Receiving his intense gaze, Rao Jie felt a rush of heat. However, Ye Ming wasn’t just there for the spectacle; he had been meaning to discuss the glass exhibition incident with Wu Rong and saw this as an opportunity to clarify things.
Wu Rong didn’t feel much about it; he knew that Rao Jie had invited him out and had seen him with Chang Fei. It didn’t seem like there was any misunderstanding. Ye Ming encouraged him, saying, "I think Rao Jie has figured things out and wants to be with you. Why not seize this chance to make an effort? Go for a romantic confession; you might just win her heart."
Wu Rong expressed doubt, "I confess to her almost every day, but she never reacts."
Ye Ming was taken aback. "If you say it too often, it loses its value, you know? You need a grand and impactful romantic gesture. Or change the setting; you two are always at home like an old married couple. The excitement is gone! Try somewhere new for a romantic confession; it might just work."
From there, Wu Rong and Ye Ming began to discuss passionately, and those who overheard them might have thought they were strategizing a proposal.
Days passed by quickly, and soon it would be New Year’s. Rao Jie felt increasingly anxious. New Year should be spent with family, but her situation was complicated.
Wu Rong seemed to notice her distress and asked what was wrong. After hesitating for a moment, Rao Jie inquired, "The New Year is coming soon; you should go to Foreign Country to spend it with your parents and Wu Xin, right?"
Wu Rong paused in surprise, carefully observing Rao Jie’s expression and guessed what she was feeling. "My family doesn’t have that expectation. Wu Xin will probably spend it with our parents, but I won’t. I haven’t spent New Year’s with them for several years now. I don’t care much for the ceremony; as long as I can see them a few times a year, it doesn’t have to be during the New Year. This year, why don’t you stay here and celebrate with me?"
Wu Rong's casual words gave Rao Jie a sense of redemption.
Rao Jie’s eyes lit up, unable to contain her excitement as she said, “Really? I can go spend time with Wei Qian and her sister. They’re both two people, so you don’t have to worry about me. You can go to your parents’ place.”
Wu Rong looked at Rao Jie, who suddenly burst into a smile. At that moment, Rao Jie resembled a little white rabbit clutching a carrot—clearly reluctant to let go, yet insisting, “I can manage without it; I can share.”
Wu Rong couldn’t help but reach out to pat Rao Jie’s head and said, “But I’d rather spend time with you, happily together.”
Rao Jie felt a slight warmth on her face and couldn’t help but blush. “Then I… I will prepare a lavish New Year’s Eve dinner.”
Wu Rong chuckled, suddenly recalling something. “But you won’t have to work during the New Year, right?”
