In the quiet dining room, Jiang Xinran was wearing a red dress that outlined her graceful curves. Her skin looked even fairer under the warm red color. Her long black hair was like a waterfall, and she had a beautiful face. She rested her chin on one hand and looked out of the window. Soft and pure music slowly flowed in her ears. People began to enter and exit the office building opposite.
Not long after, the person she was waiting for arrived.
Su Chen came in from the outside and took off his sunglasses. The sleeves of his shirt were rolled up, revealing his muscular forearms. He looked around slightly. Jiang Xinran reached out her hand to greet him before he strode over. The waiter served her a glass of ice water. Jiang Xinran nodded at her." You can serve the dishes now."”
Su Chen didn't say a word the entire time. He didn't even take a sip of water. He just leaned back in his chair and asked calmly,""What do you want to say?”
Jiang Xinran's expression froze for a moment before she returned to normal. She smiled lightly and said," There's no rush. The weather is hot. Drink some water first."”
After saying that, she pushed the cup closer to him. Su Chen picked up the cup and swirled it around in his hand, playing with it slowly. Waitresses came over one after another to serve the dishes. This was the restaurant where the master of the family served Jiangnan cuisine. The food was placed in a delicate and exquisite manner. However, Su Chen didn't even bat an eyelid when all the dishes were served, as if he wasn't interested at all.
Although Jiang Xinran was a little frustrated by his attitude, she continued to stall for time." I heard that this restaurant's Jiangnan cuisine is very authentic. I saw it by chance today and wanted you to try it. I remember that you always went to Jiangnan in the past. You should like it very much.”
Only then did Su Chen shift his gaze to the Taiji Prawns in front of him. The tender white prawn meat was peeled out. He put down the glass of water in his hand, curled the corners of his lips, and snorted." Then you're wrong. I don't like Jiangnan food at all."”
He really didn't like it, but Yi Xiangnuan loved it very much. Every time he went to Jiangnan, it was because of her.
As soon as Su Chen said this, Jiang Xinran, who had just picked up some food and was about to give it to him, suddenly stopped. She stopped smiling unnaturally and stopped herself from picking up the food back into her bowl. Su Chen didn't care about her. He couldn't help but smile. He looked at the dishes on the table again. The colors looked good. He wondered if he should go back and bring some back for her.
Jiang Xinran was a little confused. She didn't know what he was thinking, but he seemed to be in a good mood. Then, Su Chen called for a waitress and asked her to bring the menu over again. After flipping through a few pages, he ordered a few dishes." Please make it as soon as possible. I'll take it away."”
Jiang Xinran felt strange and finally couldn't help but ask," Why aren't you eating here?”
Su Chen then turned to look at her, but he didn't answer her question. He only said,""Jiang Xinran, you said you wanted to talk to me about Yi Xiangnuan. What is it? Tell me quickly, I don't have time to waste here with you.”
There was an obvious hint of impatience in his eyes. Jiang Xinran's expression suddenly became tolerant. She put down her chopsticks and turned her head unwillingly. She gritted her teeth and said,"If I didn't say that, would you have come to see me today?”
It had been five years. Even if Su Chen hadn't appeared at the wedding, even if he had shown how much he disliked Yi Xiangnuan in front of outsiders, Jiang Xinran knew that he had never forgotten her.
She still remembered the night she told Su Chenyi that Xiangnuan had lied to him. He had slammed the door and left in anger. Later on, she said that Yi Xiangnuan had secretly left the country behind his back, and he had even chased her to the airport. Over the years, his company had grown bigger and better, and he often ran around the country. He had used the excuse of a work inspection to go to many places, but she knew that he was actually looking for Yi Xiangnuan.
That was why he had immediately found her when Yi Xiangnuan had appeared and held the wedding without any explanation.
He couldn't forget Yi Xiangnuan. Even when she begged him to take her in after the Yi family's accident, he only agreed because of Yi Xiangnuan.
"Ever since she came back, you've been ignoring me. I just wanted to have a meal with you, and I had to use her name to come.”
Jiang Xinran didn't hear Su Chen say anything. She stole a glance at him, and no emotion could be seen on her indifferent face. At this time, a waiter brought him a takeaway lunch box. He stood up without saying a word and was about to leave the table. She followed closely behind him, but she saw him stop and turn around with a cold look in his eyes." You should know that I hate people lying to me. If there's a next time, you can go to the finance department to pay your salary."”
Su Chen didn't stay any longer after he finished speaking and walked straight out the door.
"Su Chen…"
Jiang Xinran chased after him anxiously. Yi Xiangnuan hadn't come out yet, so she couldn't let Su Chen leave so early. However, just as she reached the door, she saw Su Chen stop in his tracks. His eyes were locked on the direction of the Ji Group building opposite. She didn't move anymore and followed her gaze. Yi Xiangnuan and Ji Qianmu were walking out of the Ji Group's building side by side. They seemed to be discussing something and didn't look around.
Su Chen stood rooted to the spot for a while before he got into the car and drove off.
Yi Xiangnuan and Ji Qianmu did not stay any longer after they had finished talking, but they still insisted on sending her down personally. It was not good for her to reject them, so she could only agree and hurry back to the Su Family.
Fortunately, her trip did not take too long. She finally rushed back before Mother Qi had dinner. She did not dare to enter through the main door, afraid of being seen. She still bent over and climbed up the window. The weather was very hot today. When she finally climbed up, her body was covered in a layer of sweat. The hair on her forehead stuck to her cheeks. As she fanned herself, she turned on the air conditioner in the room. As the wind blew, she suddenly heard a voice.
"Where did you go?"
Yi Xiangnuan's heart tightened. She immediately turned around and saw Su Chen leaning against the door frame. His eyes were slightly narrowed, but his gaze was like a sharp blade that could pierce through her from time to time.
"I…"
She bit her lips and felt a lump in her throat. In the end, she could not think of a good answer.
"Can't say?" Su Chen smiled, but it was cold and stern. He turned around and closed the door. He walked closer to her step by step." Then let me ask you, Yi Xiangnuan, why did you look for Ji Qianmu behind my back?"”
He had clearly mentioned Ji Qianmu's name, and it was obvious that he already knew. Yi Xiangnuan frowned in disbelief."You sent someone to monitor me?"
Su Chen's tall figure was already in front of her, and his handsome face was filled with disdain and contempt." I'm not that perverted. If you want others to know, don't do it."”#
