Let her be arrogant

Chapter 10 Lover
  "Isn't it just a ruby? Is this considered wishful thinking?"

Sheng Lanqing could not wait to pounce on Hua Xiyu's hateful face immediately.

I don't know why, but whenever she sees Xi Yu, she can't maintain the facade of indifference.

She has obviously learned that she no longer has mood swings and doesn't let others see her jokes.

Xi Yu impatiently grabbed Sheng Lanqing's wrist, then hugged her waist and looked at her coldly.

"Do you like Xie Si?"

Xi Yu recalled Xie Si's proud look when he mentioned this matter to him a few days ago, and his eyes turned cold.

He is not stupid enough to make wedding clothes for others.

Sheng Lanqing was used to contradicting him.

She didn't understand Xi Yu's outrageous question, but she still sneered and said, "I just like him, so what can I do?"

You must know that there are many girls in the circle who like Xie Si.

He has a naturally handsome mixed-race appearance, is also a gentleman, and has never been rumored to have an affair with any woman.

Thinking of this, Sheng Lanqing became more confident: "Mr.

"steady?"

"Polite?"

Xi Yu repeated these two words and laughed angrily.

Xie Si's sanctimonious appearance was enough to deceive a young girl like Sheng Lanqing.

"The person sitting next to you today, Xie Si calls her Aunt Shen."

Xi Yu let go of his hand and motioned for Sheng Lanqing to get in the car with him.

It was cold outside, and Sheng Lanqing didn't even hesitate and got into the passenger seat.

Only this time, the special assistant Wen Yu didn't come.

Xi Yu glanced at her action of fastening the seat belt and felt inexplicably better.

"Do you think she's pretty?"

Sheng Lanqing raised her eyes to look at him and reacted: "She is very beautiful. She can be said to be a great beauty."

Even though it is not young, it is still properly maintained, just like red wine with endless aftertaste, the longer it is brewed, the more mellow and fragrant it becomes.

Full of fragmentation yet extremely tough, sensitive and suspicious yet tolerant and transparent, full of contradictions.

Xi Yu looked at her coolly: "She is the one Xie Si likes."

The scenery outside the car window flashed by. It was a lively time, and many people were out shopping and socializing under the feasting lights.

There are many alleys in City B. After turning a few streets, we arrived at an antique courtyard house.

Xi Yu threw away the steering wheel, but did not rush to get out of the car. She said casually: "Xie Si has liked her for many years, or it should be said that it is love."

Sheng Lanqing listened silently.

According to this statement, the rumors of Xie Si's cleanliness over the years can be explained.

but……

"Why are you telling me this? Are you bored?"

Sheng Lanqing looked at him with a confused expression.

It was still a conditioned response.

Xi Yu was silent for a rare moment, unable to understand her logic, but still said: "If you can accept liking such a person, you might as well be my lover. What do you think?"

The sound of burning bamboo slices could be heard faintly outside the car window.

Sheng Lanqing felt that his brain was about to start crackling with fire.

She almost thought Xi Yu had seen through her dark and inhumane thoughts in the past few days.

"Of course I can't agree to this!"

Sheng Lanqing sternly concealed her guilty conscience: "I will not be like my mother!"

She just wanted to use him and get a promise from him, but she didn't mean to make it real. "That's good."

Xi Yu loosened her seat belt and got out of the car, took out her mobile phone and replied to a few important messages. There was no movement behind her for a long time.

He turned around and looked over, only to see the little girl still lying by the car window looking at him eagerly.

Their eyes met, but they looked fierce.

"Xi Yu, are you going to throw me into the car?"

Xi Yu suddenly laughed and pointed to the "Vegetarian Zhai" plaque on the courtyard: "Come down and eat."

The largest room was equipped with bamboo tables and chairs, an ink painting hung on the wall, a screen on the side of the room, and several plates of seasonal fruits for incense.

Not long after I sat down, a serious old man in Chinese tunic suit came to greet the class. He smiled when he saw Xi Yu: "Mr. Xi, are you here?"

"You even brought your girlfriend?"

His gentle eyes turned to Sheng Lanqing, with an elder's kindness.

Somewhat similar to Teacher Gu.

Sheng Lanqing felt sour in her heart, so she didn't refute him and just agreed vaguely.

When the old man went out, Xi Yu took the hot towel on the plate and handed it to her to wipe her hands, and said in a gentler voice: "He is the boss here, his surname is Zhang. He used to be a master in vegetarian banquets. Later, when he got old, he came back My family started a vegetarian diet. The only bad thing is..."

He looked up at her and smiled: "Limited supply, reservation required, and cooking depends on his mood. Whatever he wants to serve, he can serve it."

"Isn't this good?" Sheng Lan Qingzai wiped her fingers carefully before wrapping the towel and putting it back on the plate, "It's very freeing."

Still very quiet.

And it's too quiet.

She was a little uncomfortable, and didn't even understand why she was sitting here honestly, and started waiting for the food to be served with Xi Yu.

The crackling sound outside was louder, it was Boss Zhang lighting the fire.

Due to the subtlety of Xi Yu's suggestion of "lover" before, she didn't want to mention the purpose of her trip for the time being.

About his awful gifts.

"Xi Yu, I want to ask," she randomly picked a topic, "does Mrs. Jiang know that Mr. Xie likes her?"

Xi Yu denied: "She doesn't know, and she hasn't thought about it, but Jiang Qingyan knows."

Just then the food arrived.

Xi Yu stopped talking, opened the bowls and chopsticks and handed them to her.

Boss Zhang cheerfully introduced: "Wicked radish soup, braised vegetarian meat, Guanyin tofu, braised carp bamboo shoots, and a bitter gourd vegetarian shrimp, please use it slowly."

Sheng Lanqing sandwiched a piece of blooming mushroom with a green pea on top.

She took a bite, and her lips and teeth immediately became fragrant, and she said in surprise: "It's delicious."

"Besides," she realized that she had ignored Xi Yu, and when she saw that he was still staring at her, she continued to ask sheepishly, "then Mr. Jiang also agreed to invite him?"

Xi Yu said nonchalantly: "Shen Qingtang regards Xie Si as a junior. Why should he make Madam unhappy? And intercepting Madam's invitation privately is disrespectful to her. Besides... Xie Si didn't think anything of it."

"It seems that Mr. Jiang is a nice person."

Sheng Lanqing commented and continued to eat.

She usually doesn't eat at night, but the workload today is really heavy and the weather is cold, so she doesn't want to care about it anymore.

Anyway, I am a vegetarian, so I won’t gain weight by eating.

Each dish is not too big, just enough for two people...

Sheng Lanqing's chopsticks stopped in mid-air, and she realized that there was a bamboo bucket of rice next to her.

And she only focused on eating the vegetables, not even a bite of rice, and actually almost ate enough for two people.

There were only a few scattered pieces of tofu left on the plate, as well as bits of soup and water stuck to the bottom.

But Xi Yu just looked at her with a serious smile, without moving his bowls and chopsticks at all.

Sheng Lanqing suddenly felt his scalp numb.
