Tao Yaoyao was sitting in the car with the door closed. The car was well insulated against exterior sounds. She didn’t hear what Feng Zhuo and Tao Zishen had said.

But she could sense that Feng Zhuo had choked Tao Zishen with whatever he’d said because Tao Zishen’s facial expression had turned extremely dark.

She felt extremely excited and also extremely curious as to what Feng Zhuo and Tao Zishen had said. Whatever it was had been harsh as it had had such a strong effect.

The car left the Tao family’s home and drove on. Tao Yaoyao couldn’t bear her curiosity anymore and asked, “What did you say to him?”

Feng Zhuo, who was concentrating on driving, glanced at her quickly with sullen eyes. He then turned his head and continued to drive, answering her aloofly, “Why don’t you try to guess?”

Guess? How could she guess? Wasn’t guessing what a person might say the same as finding the most beautiful hair on a person’s head? Too difficult! She wasn’t going to try and guess.

Although she thought that guessing was ridiculous Tao Yaoyao still replied, “You must have said that 1 million was too little, and you wanted 100 million.”

Feng Zhuo raised his eyebrows slightly. “If someone gave you 100 million, you would get a divorce?”

“Ha, ha, if someone gave me 1 million, I would get divorced, in three months.” Tao Yaoyao laughed aloud at her witty sense of humor.

She thought Feng Zhuo would laugh too.

However, Feng Zhuo simply glanced at her nonchalantly. His eyes were cool and made Tao Yaoyao feel a chill rise on her back. Her throat was also a little itchy, and she couldn’t help but want to sneeze.

She touched her nose. Had she said something wrong? His facial expression had changed. Had his facial expression changed?

“By the way, thank you for what you did just now.” She decided to try to ease the tension.

Feng Zhuo faintly replied, “Yes.”

As if thinking about something, he controlled the steering wheel with one hand and looked ahead with sullen eyes.

“But, I still need to complain about something. I told you so clearly yesterday, but you were still late today. You’re too unreliable.”

“Okay.”

What did that mean? She was complaining, but he still reacted like this. Why did he have to pretentiously brood all the time, huh?

Tao Yaoyao leaned back against the seat. “But because of your performance just now, I will forgive you.”

“Okay.”

“Huh, is that your automatic reply?”

“Okay.”

“…” Tao Yaoyao felt extremely dejected. The corners of her mouth twitched…and then she closed her mouth.

Sure enough, God was fair. Since God had given him such a breathtakingly gorgeous, handsome face, he would definitely also give him a perverted and twisted soul.

After a moment of silence, she discovered that the direction the car was driving toward wasn’t the way home.

Tao Yaoyao, who had made up her mind to not talk to Feng Zhuo for the time being, had to open her mouth and ask Feng Zhuo, “Where are we going?”

“To eat.” He was no longer giving her those terse, perfunctory replies, and his mood seemed to have brightened.

The car stopped in front of an Italian restaurant. It was a very grand Western restaurant in the Imperial City. The restaurant’s interior decoration was lavish and extravagant, but also elegant and refreshing. As for the food inside, each dish was more expensive than the next.

She grinned and said, “Feng Zhuo, you want to make up for standing me up today, so you’re treating me to a good meal.”

Feng Zhuo glanced at her strangely. The angle of the curve at the corners of his mouth looked a bit strange.

Warning bells went off inside of Tao Yaoyao’s head. She somehow felt that something was wrong. What was wrong? She suddenly understood. He wasn’t actually thinking of letting her treat him to a meal here, was he?

No way!

The food here was so expensive. She wouldn’t be able to afford the bill.
