Still calling him "Master" so affectionately?
Do you think you're Monkey King?
Enduring waves of bitterness, Lin Muyan didn't want to continue watching the two of them at this moment.
When Cheng Young heard that it was his ex-girlfriend, his eyes lit up. With a coquettish frown and an embarrassed smile, she said, "I'm sorry for making you feel bad. I've always wanted to meet his girlfriend, but it looks like I won't have the chance. You've finished eating, right? I'm sorry for stopping you earlier and wasting your time." Lin Muyan was already in a bad mood, and this woman's words only made her more annoyed.
Xiao Chen was staring at herself without any explanation, and suddenly grabbed Zhen Heng who was about to take her away. If it comes to making things difficult for people, she's an expert. With a smile, she looked at Zhen Heng for a hint, and Lin Muyan waved to a passing waiter, "Excuse me, could we have a menu here?"
"You've always wanted to meet, and I happen to be free today. How about we have a meal together? I'm a bit hungry anyway," Lin Muyan said with a forced pat on her stomach, smiling at Cheng Young who was completely caught off guard by her sudden change of attitude. Ten minutes later.
The steak was brought to the table, still emitting a faint heat, and sizzling oil was jumping on the edge of the iron plate, presenting an appetizing appearance.
Lin Muyan played with the fork expressionlessly. After she sat down, she immediately ordered several items until Cheng Young's face contorted almost uncontrollably, and then she finally stopped.
She didn't look at Xiao Chen, whose gaze was fixed on her, nor did she pay attention to Cheng Young beside her, who was trying to say something to drive her away. She just played with her fork, lost in her own thoughts.
"Miss, this is the Aux Murgers you ordered," the waiter's timely appearance broke the awkward silence of the four people sitting face to face. Lin Muyan smiled and thanked him, hiding her emotions behind lowered eyes. When she looked up again, her eyes were bright and clear.
She declined the waiter's offer to pour the wine, and waited until he left before taking the glass herself. "Heng, I remember you like this Burgundy's taste the most. You said it has a long aftertaste and rich flavor, especially suitable for steady people. I even teased you, saying you're like an old man."
She got up and leaned forward, her slender waist barely touching the edge of the table, and poured wine for Zhen Heng who was sitting directly across from her with a half-smile. Zhen Heng saw through her intention at a glance, took a sip of the wine she poured, and said lightly, "I like it now too." "That's good." Lin Muyan sat back, turned her head to see Cheng Young twisting the napkin under the table into a flower, and smiled, "Look at me, I was so engrossed in talking to Heng that I forgot to ask, what should I call you, miss?"
She did it on purpose, definitely on purpose! Cheng Young gave her a death stare, then quickly glanced at Xiao Chen with a stiff smile, " Cheng Young, I am the longest disciple of Master." Implicitly, she is the person Xiao Chen values the most and knows him the best.
Lin Muyan With a disinterested "oh," she glanced deeply at her, finally recognizing her from her memory. She felt that the other person seemed strangely familiar, and it turned out to be the girl from the restroom that day. Xiao Chen's peach blossoms are really...
Rubbish!
Lin Muyan was still smiling falsely, when suddenly she heard a soft snort from the opposite side. Zhen Heng slightly furrowed his brows, and lowered his head to use a napkin to wipe off the red wine stains on his coat.
"Sorry, it's a bit cramped in here."
Xiao Chen looked at Lin Muyan expressionlessly, clearly intending to bump into Zhen Heng and spill the red wine on purpose. He was retaliating for Lin Muyan's attentiveness to the man next to her just now. "It's nothing."
Zhen Heng calmly handled the situation and then naturally reached over to take Lin Muyan's plate. "Let me do it."
Xiao Chen just stared as Zhen Heng cut the steak into small pieces and pushed it back in front of Lin Muyan, as if it were a common and unremarkable task. But that was something Xiao Chen should have been able to do!
Xiao Chen's eyes darkened, and suddenly there was a piece of goose liver in the plate.
"Master, don't you like it?" Cheng Young withdrew the fork and asked slightly aggrieved.
Before Xiao Chen could speak, Lin Muyan smiled and put a forkful for Zhen Heng, also goose liver, and there was one more than in Xiao Chen's plate.
"Heng, you should try it. I just had some, and the taste is really delicious."
Lin Muyan provocatively raised her chin at him.
Watching Zhen Heng consume everything that bore Lin Muyan's mark, Xiao Chen suddenly felt no appetite. He stared blankly at his plate for a while, then picked up his wine glass and took a sip in a gloomy manner.
Originally...
These are things that should be enjoyed by oneself, but now what is it?
He looked at Lin Muyan in a daze, with mixed feelings in his heart.
Lin Muyan Although she was smiling on the outside, she felt equally uncomfortable inside, especially when she saw Cheng Young clearly showing goodwill, which made her even more upset. Clearly, she came to make trouble, but in the end, it was her own mood that worsened. Even the steak didn't taste good, as she angrily stabbed a forkful into her mouth, causing Lin Muyan's cheeks to puff up with frustration.
Cheng Young didn't gain any favor from Xiao Chen, so she quickly turned her attention to Lin Muyan. She's not stupid; it's clear that these two are tormenting each other, so why not get involved? As long as she can make this woman back down, her master will take notice of her.
With a determined look in her eyes, she smiled and said, "Miss Lin, I liked you as soon as I saw you today. I would like to invite you to my birthday party."
Lin Muyan's initial reaction was to refuse, but before she could speak, Cheng Young suddenly leaned in, lowering her voice so that only the two of them could hear.
"I won't blame you if you don't come. After all, you just broke up with my master, so it's understandable if it's awkward. But you've been with my master for so long, and he hasn't formally introduced you to us. Is it because... you're not up to our standards?"
She finished speaking and then distanced herself again, holding Lin Muyan's hand with a tea-scented air, shaking it like a little sister. "Miss Lin, I really like you a lot. You must come, my master and I will wait for you." Saying something inappropriate, but still bringing up Xiao Chen.
Lin Muyan's light brown eyes were filled with a faint hint of provocation. Suddenly, she glanced to the side and met Xiao Chen's gloomy gaze. "Hey, are you coming or not?" Xiao Chen was slow to react, but eventually nodded in response.
Then I heard Lin Muyan speak in a very cheerful tone, "Thank you for the invitation, Miss Cheng. I will definitely come to your birthday banquet."
As soon as she finished speaking, her gaze fell sharply on Xiao Chen, and she gritted her teeth slightly, "Otherwise, I'll be afraid of getting a reputation for scaring off ex-boyfriends, which could affect my future prospects."
She didn't care about Xiao Chen's expression or what Cheng Young was hiding, and she took a big sip of red wine, got up with a smile, and left.
"We won't disturb you two, enjoy the birthday banquet."
She stood up, and Zhen Heng helped her with her coat, then turned around to see Xiao Chen also getting up and walking in her direction.
Zhen Heng's face turned cold, like a guardian protecting a flower, standing in front of her and blocking the eager Xiao Chen.
"Mr. Xiao," he said coldly, "your companion is still waiting for you." He raised his chin slightly, pointing to the blushing Cheng Young who had been left behind. Xiao Chen fell silent for a moment, didn't move forward, but glanced at Zhen Heng and said, "She's been drinking."
"I know, I met her before you did."
Xiao Chen stood in place, with no sign of Lin Muyan in sight. It wasn't until Cheng Young called his name several times that he pursed his lips and turned around.
Zhen Heng sent Lin Muyan home, and her complexion has not been good the whole time.
"Are you still thinking about him?"
Today, I saw Xiao Chen and also saw him having dinner with another woman. It's strange if Lin Muyan doesn't have any other thoughts.
Zhen Heng knows that now is actually a good opportunity for him, but he doesn't want to see Lin Muyan show such a vulnerable expression.
"Mu Yan, are you regretting breaking up now?"
He stepped on the brake, his voice slow and firm.
Lin Muyan's moist glass lips parted slightly, pausing for a few seconds, nodding in frustration.
"Really, why not just speak up if you see through it."
"Do you want to salvage it?" Zhen Heng spoke calmly, but his nails unconsciously tapped on the steering wheel.
Lin Muyan fell into silence, just as Zhen Heng was about to change the topic, she said softly, "I do regret it, but he lied to me."
She sighed, "I can't convince myself to forgive him, at least not now."
"Then, for your birthday banquet, do you want me to accompany you?"
Lin Muyan After thinking for a moment, "It's okay, I can handle it myself."
The car fell into silence, and after a while, Zhen Heng asked with concern, "You ate a lot today, is your stomach still okay?"
Two steaks, plus a bunch of miscellaneous snacks. If it weren't for the fact that Lin Muyan was venting her emotions at the dining table, he would have wanted to carry her home long ago. Lin Muyan awkwardly grinned, "I'm not feeling well." She rarely lies to Zhen Heng, after all, he is very shrewd. Even if she did lie, he would see through it.
She shrugged, her palm resting on her stomach, swollen from overeating. Holding the digestive medicine bought for her by Zhen Heng, she waved goodbye at the entrance of the Lin family mansion, only to be suddenly attacked by Old Master Lin as soon as she entered the door.
"How did the date with Heng go? Why are you still holding medicine? Upset stomach? Lao Lin! Lao Lin! Go get Wang the doctor!" Old Master Lin bombarded with questions, and finally shouted for the butler. Lin Muyan quickly stopped him with a headache. "It's nothing, grandpa. I just ate too much. I'll go upstairs to rest first, I won't join you for dinner."
"Alright, take good care and rest well. If you still don't feel well after taking the medicine, let grandpa know."
Before closing the door, grandpa's concerned voice seeped in through the crack.
"I got it!"
Lin MuyanLying on the bed, emptying my mind, my phone suddenly rang.
It was a WeChat friend request.
The request included an address and time, along with a provocative emoji.
The birthday banquet is scheduled for Friday afternoon at 3:30. Zhen Heng has suggested accompanying her, but was rejected.
"Don't worry, I'm not a child anymore. I can handle this small situation. I'll tell you about it when I come back tonight."
