nIt was already dark after a long day.

nLu Manman got into the car, exhausted. However, she was in high spirits now.

nGoing down this path would solve everything.

nShe felt much better now.

nShe stretched lazily and asked Qin Ao, “Is there anything you want to eat?”

n“Me?” Qin Ao was shocked.

n“I haven’t had dinner yet. What would you like to eat? You can eat something better today.”

n“I don’t have any cravings,” Qin Ao said directly.

nLu Manman also felt that asking him was a waste of time.

nShe thought for a while, then remembered Mo Yuanxiu.

nWhat was he doing today?

nShe had been busy the whole day, but that guy should have been free.

nShe thought for a while and made a call. “Mo Yuanxiu.”

n“Mm-hm,” came the calm reply.

n“Have you eaten dinner?”

n“It’s nine in the evening, and you’re asking if I have dinner?”

n“Forget it if you have.” Lu Manman was ready to hang up.

n“I can eat supper,” he said. “I’ll wait for you at home.”

nWith that, he hung up even faster.

nLu Manman smiled.

nHer smile lasted for a while before fading.

nShe attributed it to her good mood today and the fact that Mo Yuanxiu had really helped her out a lot. That was why she was smiling at this man.

nThe car arrived at the Mo family’s villa very soon.

nMo Yuanxiu was leaning against the entrance as he lit a cigarette. It was hard to see under the dim light, but the man seemed to have a special quality to him and was undeniably charming.

nHe threw his cigarette down and got into the car.

nHis body smelled faintly of tobacco.

nLu Manman wrinkled her nose. She’d always thought that the smell of cigarettes was pungent.

nThat was because Wen Yun did not smoke.

n“Seems like you made good progress today,” Mo Yuanxiu said as he looked at her.

n“Mm-hm.” Lu Manman did not beat about the bush.

n“So you want to thank me with this meal?”

n“Yes.”

n“I said I only accept one way of appreciation…”

n“You can get off now!” Lu Manman clenched her teeth.

nThis man could not be serious for even a second.

nHe shrugged and kept quiet.

nThey arrived at a high-end restaurant in the quiet car.

nThe two of them walked side by side with Qin Ao following behind.

nThe attendant politely led them to the dining table, but both of them suddenly stopped in their tracks.

nWen Yun was leaving after having his meal.

nWen Yun.

nHow could he still have the mood to eat here at a time like this?

nThey faced each other.

nIt was a little ironic.

nWhen Wen Yun saw them together, his face darkened.

nAt this point, a woman suddenly walked out from behind him.

nWen Yan.

nWen Yun’s sister had been studying overseas. She was three years younger and had probably just returned recently.

nWen Yun and her sister were on good terms, and Wen Yan liked to stick to her brother. That was why her relationship with Wen Yan had never been good after she married Wen Yun. Wen Yan always felt that she had stolen her brother’s love for her, so she tried to make things difficult for her whenever possible.

nLu Manman took a deep breath.

nSeeing so many acquaintances from her previous life, she felt a little ironic.

nWen Yan was never a simple character. In her previous life, she had suffered a lot in front of this woman.

nBut because she liked Wen Yun back then, and because he had specifically said that he only had this one sister, she always treated her like one. No matter how unreasonable Wen Yan was, she had always treated her sincerely and kindly.

nNow that she thought about it, it was not worth it!

n“Lu Manman, it’s been a while. I was planning to come back for our wedding dinner, but you found another man so soon?! My brother has been so nice to you all these years, but you’re so cold-blooded.” Wen Yan was being sarcastic now, and her voice was getting shriller. “I wonder what made you fall for this playboy, Mo Yuanxiu, that everyone in Wen City knows about? Is it his character? Or his appearance? Or his upbringing? Or his skills in bed?!”
