Divorce: This Is A Trivial Matter

CHAPTER 9: DATE__I'M CURRENTLY SINGLE

Yang Wei stared at him blankly for quite a while until finally bursting into a fit of giggles. “Are you filming a movie?”

Fang Cheng Ran’s lips slowly curved upward like silk threads being spun. “Are you willing to be my heroine then?” By chance, sunlight glinted off of his teeth as he smiled, making him look as handsome as an oil painting.

Yang Wei felt that, at this moment, there probably wasn’t any girl capable of refusing Fang Cheng Ran. She pursed her lips before flashing him a smile and stepping into his car. Once the enchanting Maserati had carried Yang Wei far off into the distance, a chubby security guard standing near the entrance took out his phone and opened Moments. (1)

「Announcing the answer:  The handsome guy finally drove off with the fifth grade art teacher, Teacher Yang, in a Maserati. The end.」

A moment later, all of Moments exploded.

Yang Wei tilted her head toward Fang Cheng Ran as she sat in the passenger seat and asked, “What type of food are we going to eat?”

“Western-style food,” Fang Cheng Ran paused and then added, “at Moon Lovers.”

『Moon Lovers』 advertised the line, ‘If you love her, then take her to Moon Lovers,’ and thus ostentatiously swindled A City for years with it. Yang Wei blinked and then let out an ‘oh’ as she came to a realization. As Fang Cheng Ran had just returned to the country, it meant that he probably didn’t know that subtext behind taking her to 『Moon Lovers』.

Because they’d left during rush hour, they encountered several traffic jams. Each one was torture to Yang Wei, as it inevitably meant that there’d be a meddlesome driver who’d honk at them.

Even if 『Moon Lovers』 was a romantic, western-style restaurant, Fang Cheng Ran’s extravagant Maserati still drew a lot of attention when it pulled up. Yang Wei glanced at Fang Cheng Ran, who was clothed in a black suit, and slightly tugged her lips to the side. “Should I have changed into formal attire before we came?”

Fang Cheng Ran opened her car door for her and then smiled as he said, “The waiters wouldn’t deign to lock the doors and reject a beautiful lady like you.”

Yang Wei laughed as she got out of the car. “Did you only visit Italy during your travels? I’ve heard that the men there are the world’s best smooth talkers.”

Fang Cheng Ran replied, “Most of what I said is the truth.”

Yang Wei lightly smiled and followed him inside.

『Moon Lovers』was decorated in such a way that it held a hazy, ambiguous feeling. The intended ambiance for visitors seemed to be that of a date between lovers beneath a moonlit sky. There were also several assorted miniature chocolate decorations inside of the restaurant, so that when guests entered, they’d feel as if the air held a hint of sweetness.

The head waiter that greeted them was very professional, and the bow he gave them having seemingly been perfectly measured with a compass to be both precise yet graceful. After leading them to their table, the waiter lit the candle and then paused. Fang Cheng Ran pulled out Yang Wei’s chair a step faster than the waiter before seating himself opposite her.

The waiter courteously handed Yang Wei a menu who, after glancing it over, ordered a few dishes. When he saw her do so, Fang Cheng Ran faintly smiled as he asked, “Do you frequently bring others here to eat?”
