After kicking out my ex-husband, his brother and I got back together.

Chapter 21

Chang Rong's message was sent two hours ago, and Duan Xiaowu has not replied to him until now.

Inexplicably, Duan Xiaowu felt a little guilty.

She coughed lightly and called Chang Rong.

The owner of the phone was probably angry and didn't answer the call for a long time.

Fortunately, Duan Xiaowu now treats him as Party A and takes it very lightly.

If he didn't answer, she would continue to hit him.

She called three times in a row, and the person on the other side answered the call calmly.

The monotonous mobile phone screen was replaced by a handsome face, and Chang Rong's unhappiness was written directly on his face.

"what?"

Duan Xiaowu noticed that he was not at home again.

Looking at the background, it seems to be in a hotel suite.

She couldn't help but asked curiously, "Where are you? Have you eaten?"

Hearing that she cared about him, Chang Rong's expression became a little better, "I haven't eaten. What about you?"

Duan Xiaowu couldn't help but feel happy when she saw that his expression softened slightly, "I haven't eaten yet, otherwise I'd treat you. I'd just like to answer your morning question face to face."

Not sure if it was her imagination, but Duan Xiaowu felt that as soon as she said these words, the man on the screen shrank his eyes.

Although the sitting posture has not changed, the previous lazy posture seems to have become a bit tense.

"You have the answer so soon?" Chang Rong asked with some unclear meaning.

Duan Xiaowu didn't think much about it. Hearing this, he grinned and said, "No, we can't keep Master Chang waiting for too long."

"Ah."

The man on the other end of the phone let out a chuckle.

Along with this ironic laugh, Duan Xiaowu vaguely felt that the relationship she had worked so hard to close seemed to have regressed back to the starting point in an instant.

Chang Rong's face was still that familiar face, but it felt strange again.

She couldn't figure it out or read it.

The man on the screen changed his posture, turned his phone over at the same time, and pointed the camera at a card table on the other side.

"Okay! Anyway, Mr. Duan has a lot of money, so I'll let you treat everyone to this meal today."

In front of the card table, Songzi played a bunch of cards excitedly and turned around when he heard the sound.

"Who wants to treat me? I lost so much today that I lost all my pants. I have to eat well to get my money back."

The two girls who were watching the fight around the table immediately became excited and began to make suggestions.

"Then let's skip the hot pot and go directly to the sky garden to eat at the newly opened Internet celebrity French restaurant!"

"But I heard that it's hard to get an appointment with their chef. You have to book at least one month in advance."

A boy sitting opposite Songzi didn't look happy.

"What's so delicious about French food? My brother vomited after eating it in Europe. Now that I've finally come back, can't I go back to Chongqing hot pot?"

The two girls wore exquisite makeup and obviously did not want to eat hot pot that was heavy in oil and flavor.

However, those present here were all rich young men whom they could not afford to offend, so in the end they had no choice but to shut up angrily.

Chang Rong then cut the camera back to his face, "What do you think? Mr. Duan."

Duan Xiaowu was a little embarrassed. She originally wanted to ask Chang Rong to have dinner alone and then have a good chat about the fake marriage.

But I didn't expect that he would directly create such a big scene.

But even after she said it, she had no choice but to smile and cater to everyone.

"Then let's go to the Sky Garden to eat hot pot. My friend just opened a new hot pot restaurant there. The taste is amazing and the scenery is amazing."

Duan Xiaowu stood up and took out her coat and handbag while continuing to talk to him.

"How many of you are there? I'll call my friend to reserve a seat first."

Before Duan Xiaowu finished speaking, he heard the exclamations of two girls on the other end of the phone.

"The new hot pot restaurant in the sky garden? Is it [Tang Chunxiang]!" "I know, I know, it's the rooftop hot pot restaurant that was featured on CCTV! I heard that they opened a total of six tables, and the queue is longer than the one next door. It’s hard to eat!”

"Sister, there are 8 of us in total. Can you make an appointment at their two tables in the open air? I want to take a photo and check in and send it to Moments!"

The voices of the two girls were getting closer and closer, and they seemed to be getting closer to Chang Rong.

Duan Xiaowu opened the office door and responded to them, "It should be okay, I'll give it a try."

"Wow! That's great, thank you sister."

"Thank you Mr. Duan."

The two girls expressed their gratitude to Duan Xiaowu enthusiastically, looking full of energy.

However, Chang Rong's expression on the side became worse and worse.

His original intention was just to tease Duan Xiaowu, but he didn't really hope that this rare lunch for two would produce seven more light bulbs.

However, Duan Xiaowu looked very happy, which made him angrier and angrier.

In the end, he didn't even say hello to Duan Xiaowu and just cut off the phone.

At this time, Songzi, who had just finished a round of cards, looked over to him.

Realizing that Chang Rong seemed to be in a bad mood, he asked one of the girls to take over while he walked to his side.

"What's wrong? Who called just now? The voice sounds familiar to me."

Chang Rong lowered her eyelashes, took out a fruit candy from her pocket with a sullen face, peeled off the colorful candy wrapper, and threw the candy core inside into her mouth.

"fine."

He is just angry.

I'm angry at myself for being so unsatisfactory. After all these years, I still have a crush on a heartless woman.

I'm angry that I know that this woman has no intentions, but I still can't help but want to open this Pandora's box.

……

When Duan Xiaowu rushed to the Sky Garden, she found that Chang Rong was the only one who came for the appointment.

She was a little surprised, "Where are your friends?"

Chang Rong still maintained the awkward look of being unhappy, "I was forced to try the dishes by Songzi."

Duan Xiaowu was puzzled: "Trying dishes?"

"Well, Songzi's hotel restaurant has a new chef."

Duan Xiaowu didn't ask any more questions.

She didn't have much impression of Songzi. She was probably a friend she met after Chang Rong went abroad.

Although she and Chang Rong had been in the same class for several years, strictly speaking, their social circles did not overlap much.

She remembered that Chang Rong was particularly rebellious for a period of time when he was a child.

In school, I would either sleep or fight all day long, and I would always hand in a blank paper in the final exam.

At that time, she always heard people say that the child Chang Rong was going to die.Even if he could inherit his father's family business in the future, he would still be a prodigal with no big future.

But when Duan Xiaowu was in high school, Chang Rong suddenly became enlightened, as if he had been stimulated by something.

Then, it only took him one year to complete all the missed courses.Not only did they skip three levels in a row, they also got the first place in their city's high school entrance examination.

Since then, he has stopped fighting and fooling around.

The passion of a young man is devoted to participating in his own physics competitions. In his free time, he can go racing and skiing.

But this person, even if he is just doing casual sports, can still bring back a few trophies.

Becoming someone else's child through and through.

At this moment, this kid from another family was sitting opposite her, expertly ordering a few hot pot dishes.

Among them are her favorite coriander balls and large kidney slices.
