nXiang Xiaoyuan mimicked Lu Bei and clenched her fist in a threatening manner. “Don’t you know that I’m his stepmother?”
nWei Zihang: “…”
nHe shut his mouth completely.
nThe corners of Xu Xiyao’s mouth curled up slightly.
nXiang Xiaoyuan brought them to a high-class restaurant. After entering a private room, she said to them, “Don’t be polite. Order whatever you want.”
nOf course, she added in her heart, it’s best not to order anything too expensive.
nAt the same time, Gao Yuan accompanied Lu Wanggui to dinner. When he went to the bathroom, he suddenly saw a familiar figure. He thought his eyes were playing tricks on him, but when he saw Lu Bei behind him, he was sure that his eyes were not playing tricks on him. He quickly returned to the private room and stood behind Lu Wanggui. He said in a low voice, “CEO Lu, Madam also came to this restaurant, along with Young Master, the young master of the Wei family, and an unknown boy.”
nLu Wanggui didn’t even raise his head and asked, “Which private room?”
nGao Yuan reported the private room number that he had secretly seen.
nA few minutes later, Lu Wanggui stood at the door of the private room. His well-defined fingers knocked on the door three times before he pushed the door open and entered. Wei Zihang who was sitting in a relaxed manner instantly sat up straight and didn’t move at all.
nLu Wanggui took a seat beside Xiang Xiaoyuan. His gaze swept across the menu in Xiang Xiaoyuan’s hand and asked, “What did you order?”
nXiang Xiaoyuan handed the menu to him and asked, “Why are you here?”
n“A business partner is treating us to a meal.”
nLu Wanggui took the menu and glanced at it briefly. He then looked up at the three people sitting across from him. His gaze paused on Lu Bei for a few seconds before he lowered his head again. “Add a few more dishes.”
nXiang Xiaoyuan looked at him with sparkling eyes. “Are you going to reimburse me?”
nLu Wanggui held his forehead helplessly and nodded lightly.
n“Then I won’t be polite!” Xiang Xiaoyuan rolled up her sleeves. After consulting the opinions of the three people across from her, she began to add more dishes. In order to show her respect to the person who was treating her, she would also ask Lu Wanggui’s opinion in a low voice before adding each dish.
nOf course, Lu Wanggui did not have any opinions. No matter which one Xiang Xiaoyuan pointed at, he would only answer with a ‘yes’.
nOne person asked and the other replied harmoniously.
nWei Zihang looked at Lu Bei, who was playing with his phone, and then looked at Xu Xiyao, who was sitting on the chair like an old monk meditating. He lamented in his heart, “Why should a young man like him sit here and watch a married couple publicly display their affection!
nNo, he could no longer stay in this private room.
nAfter thinking for a while, he kicked Xu Xiyao under the table, then stood up and said, “Uncle Lu, Aunty, I need to go to the bathroom first.”
nXu Xiyao sat there without moving. Wei Zihang felt that Xu Xiyao did not understand his actions just now, so he pulled him up and said, “Didn’t you just say that you want to go to the bathroom? Let’s go together.”
nXu Xiyao: “…”
nHe wanted to say that he did not say that he wanted to go to the bathroom, but when he met Wei Zihang’s crazy blinking eyes, he silently got up.
nXiang Xiaoyuan watched as they walked out of the private room one after another. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and her eyes were filled with joy.
nLu Wanggui turned his head to look at her and explained to Xiang Xiaoyuan, “It’s rare to see boys go to the bathroom hand in hand. It’s quite interesting.”
nLu Bei: “…”
nOnce Wei Zihang and Xu Xiyao left, only the Lu family of three were left in the private room.
nXiang Xiaoyuan flipped through the menu to confirm the final dish. Lu Bei and the others were just in a growing phase, and their appetites were big. In addition, they had been busy all day today, so their appetites were even better than usual.
nAnyway, Lu Wanggui was paying today. It was a rare opportunity to rip him off, so Xiang Xiaoyuan wouldn’t be polite. “Do you want to eat steamed abalone? And this lobster looks pretty good too.”
nThese two dishes were the restaurant’s signature dishes. They heard that the lobster was shipped over by air. The taste was very delicious, and the price was also very beautiful.
nLu Wanggui was as gentle as usual. “Order if you want to eat.”
nXiang Xiaoyuan: “Okay!”
nAlthough Lu Wanggui would agree no matter what she asked, Xiang Xiaoyuan would always ask before ordering each dish. This was the most basic respect for the big boss who paid the bill.
nThe two of them confirmed the menu in a low voice. When they were almost done ordering, she remembered that there was another person in the private room. She closed the menu and handed it over. “Lu Bei, do you have anything else that you want to add?”
nIt was said that stepmothers and stepson were enemies. It was a relationship that could not be reconciled no matter what. However, Xiang Xiaoyuan and Lu Bei gave this kind of relationship another possibility.
nXiang Xiaoyuan treated Lu Bei as a roommate, while Lu Bei treated Xiang Xiaoyuan as a classmate. They respected each other and did not cross the line. Xiang Xiaoyuan, an outsider, did not have much hope for this marriage, so it was impossible for her to have any ill intentions toward Lu Bei. Moreover, she knew that Lu Bei was the main character. If she still went against Lu Bei, how stupid would she be?
