The Devil’s love
Chapter 308 - Dinner Party(I)

Hesitating for a while, Jason started panicking, "How do I explain this?" Thinking for a while, he added, "I was going to walk away when she grabbed my hand."

Staring at him for quite some time, she crossed her arms in the front. "And what makes you think I should believe you?" ​​

"Please believe me, I would never even look at any other women let alone touch them." Without waiting for her reply, he added, "And Mary, she has a history with Linhou and not me."

"What history?"

"Linhou kissed her a couple of years back when he was super drunk, she has been following him since then. He keeps avoiding her but nothing works, she keeps running around him and tries to get close to him whenever he is around. There have been times when she tried to make a move on me too but I have always drawn a clear line between us," he quickly explained. He obviously didn't want her to misunderstand him in any way. Jason was looking forward to sharing a healthy romantic relationship with her in the future and that would never come true if she misunderstood him in any way.

Keeping quiet for quite some time, she inquired, "If you had always drawn a line then why was she holding your hand?"

"Linhou, he tricked me and ran away with Kiara." Grabbing her hand, he sighed in dejection. "Please believe me Elizabeth."

Slapping his hand away, she took a step closer. "Listen to me Jason, I am not the kind of woman who will take shit like this. I don't want this to repeat in the future." Pressing her finger on his chest, she narrowed her eyes, "If you want to be with me, your attention, heart and eyes has to be only on me, did you understand?"

Jason gulped in nervousness and vigorously nodded his head. For some odd reason, he felt very scared of her.

"Good, now take me out." Rubbing her stomach, she sighed, "I am hungry."

"Of course, let's go."

…..

Ning and Yichan's place.

"What about Lucas? Is he not coming?" Ning inquired.

"He is kinda depressed right now but I think he will come," Roger answered.

Scrunching her brows, she inquired, "Why, what happened?"

"Eh nothing so serious, his girlfriend is out of station for a few weeks. Lucas is just acting like a lovestruck boyfriend," he chuckled.

Helplessly shaking her head, she sighed, "He will feel better if he comes here. Anyway, you should come in."

"Is everyone here?"

"No, Guiren, Meili and Chen are not here yet," she answered.

"And here I thought I was super late for the party."

"Look, Roger is here." Pointing towards him, Muchan snapped, "He is single too, bug him as well."

Stopping midway, he raised his brows. "Are we talking about marriage and girlfriends? Should I run away."

"You don't have to, come and sit next to me." Gesturing him to sit down, grandpa Yang inquired, "So tell us Roger, what kind of woman are you looking for yourself?"

"Currently I am not looking for anyone and—"

Cutting him off, he added, "If you ever look for one."

Thinking for a while, Roger answered, "I don't know, maybe someone who is understanding, sweet, polite and knows how to cook."

"But you cook quite well, you can cook for her instead," Nuying remarked.

"Yes I can but I don't want to be with someone who can't even boil a glass of water."

Looking at Yichan, Ning chuckled, "If I was Roger, you would still be single."

"There were times when I told both Bojing and Yichan to learn how to cook. I even hired someone to teach them but Yichan always ran away or kept fooling around but Bojing was always attentive. Now you can see the difference, Bojing is a complete husband who can cook for his wife and also take care for her unlike Yichan who has to struggle," Grandpa Mo explained.

Wrapping her arms around Yichan's, Ning complained, "Grandpa, don't say like that. Yichan is slowly learning how to cook, he made coffee for me the other day without burning the kitchen down."

Helplessly shaking his head, Bojing chuckled, "I remember when he used to stay with us, he almost burned himself when he tried to boil some milk."

"After that incident, Yichan was officially banned from entering the kitchen," Suyan added.

Letting out a mocking scoff, Yichan frowned, "Look at all of you making fun of me, I will surely get back to you in the future."

Just then, Meili and Guiren arrived along with Grandpa Zhang.

"Look at you all starting the party without me," Grandpa Zhang sighed before sitting beside grandpa Mo.

"We were just talking, why are you late?"

Glaring at Guiren, he snapped, "Someone was supposed to pick me up right on time but he obviously forgot."

"For the hundredth time, I did not forget about your grandpa, we just got a bit busy," Guiren defended himself.

"Since you guys are finally here, tell us what the good news is," Nuying stated.

"Yes, what is the good news?" Ning asked.

Looking around, Meili inquired, "Is everyone here? Where is Chen, Ziying and Yitian?"

"Yitian is in the room, Chen is on the way and Ziying won't be coming," Ning answered.

Just then Chen arrived along with Ziying.

When Ning saw Ziying, she scrunched her brows. "Ziying? I thought you weren't coming."

Before she could say anything, Chen wrapped his arms around her shoulder. "Well, that is true." When Ning gave him a weird look, he added, "I mean she is not here as you friend Ziying, she is here as my partner Ziying."

Slapping her forehead, Ziying slapped his hand away and gave Ning a hug. "Your brother is so dramatic, he forced me into this."

"Hey, how can you say that? You promised to play along," he snapped.

Ignoring Chen , Ning remarked, "I am so glad you are here, to be honest I was very bumped when you told me you weren't coming."
