Lei Yan hadn't noticed Xiao Muyou at this time. When he came closer, he was stunned. He didn't expect to meet Xiao Muyou here.
When I thought about seeing Qiao Muyi and Xiao Muyou at the airport a long time ago, and later heard something about Qiao Muyi's pursuit of Xiao Muyou, but now I saw them eating here, my heart couldn't help but twitch.
.
"Mr. Qiao, what a coincidence?"
After saying that, Lei Yan nodded towards Xiao Muyou again, his expression as indifferent as usual.
"Hello, Mr. Xiao."
Such a title seemed a little distant, and Xiao Muyou frowned slightly. She also didn't expect that after returning from Manchester City, they would meet again on such an occasion, and it was also when she and Qiao Muyi were eating alone.
Xiao Muyou stood up, nodded slightly, smiled slightly, and said.
"What a coincidence, Mr. Lei."
"Mr. Lei, are you here to eat too?"
At this time, Qiao Muyi had not noticed the awkward atmosphere between Lei Yan and Xiao Muyou, and was still asking enthusiastically. Lei Yan nodded and said.
"I live nearby. I heard that a French restaurant opened here, so I came over to take a look. Unexpectedly, I met Mr. Qiao and Mr. Xiao. The waiter here just now said that there is no space here. I wonder if you two would mind joining us.
Sharing a table.”
This is not an excuse for Lei Yan. He was stopped by the waiter before he even came in. If it weren't for Qiao Muyi's greeting, he would have left long ago. But now, for some reason, he just wants to stay.
When Lei Yan said this, both Qiao Muyi and Xiao Muyou were stunned for a moment. It was rare for Qiao Muyi to get an appointment with Xiao Muyou, so of course he didn't want anyone to disturb him. As for Xiao Muyou, after what happened in Manchester City, she didn't know how to get along with Lei Yan now.
, while the two were hesitating, Lei Yan had already asked the waiter to add a set of tableware for him, and he had already sat down, taking the menu and ordering the dishes.
Seeing that Lei Yan had already sat down, Qiao Muyi said nothing more and started chatting with Lei Yan.
"Mr. Lei, why haven't you come to the research center recently?"
When Qiao Muyi said this, Xiao Muyou was stunned for a moment. She didn't know that Lei Yan's sister was being treated in Qiao Muyi's medical center. Just now she was curious about how Lei Yan knew Qiao Muyi.
"Do you know each other?"
Lei Yan and Qiao Muyi both nodded, and Qiao Muyi replied.
"Well, Mr. Lei's sister is being treated in my medical center. Why, you didn't know?"
Xiao Muyou thought how could I know, and then asked.
"Ms. Lei, are you okay?"
I heard Xiao Siluo say before that Lei Yan's sister had an accident many years ago and has been in a coma.
"Thank you for your concern. My little sister's condition is quite stable."
Lei Yan said politely. When Xiao Muyou heard such a distant attitude, he frowned slightly and took a drink of water to relieve the boredom in his heart.
After a while, the waiter brought the meals for the three of them. Qiao Muyi helped Xiao Muyou pick up the vegetables and peeled the shrimp for her in a very gentlemanly manner. Lei Yan on the side just watched silently and suddenly said:
"Is Mr. Qiao pursuing Miss Xiao?"
In fact, this question should not be asked in front of Xiao Muyou. For a moment, the atmosphere at the dinner table seemed a little awkward. Xiao Muyou looked at Lei Yan with confusion and anger in his eyes. Qiao Muyi on the side smiled slightly.
He said without hiding his feelings at all.
"Is it so obvious?"
Lei Yan nodded and said.
"Mr. Qiao is so outstanding. It is his honor to be favored by you. Mr. Qiao and Miss Xiao are a perfect match for each other."
Lei Yan said indifferently, his expression was dull, and it was hard to tell whether he was happy or sad. After hearing this, Qiao Muyi raised his glass and shook it towards Lei Yan, but Xiao Muyou's expression was a little strange, hard to tell, a little bitter, and a little forbearing.
.
At this time, Xiao Muyou smiled lightly and said.
"Mr. Lei, what you said is quite interesting. Could it be that we have golden boy and beautiful girl written on our faces, a match made in heaven?"
Xiao Muyou has been very restrained, otherwise, he would probably flip the table and leave. Even if this guy doesn't like her, there is no need to rush to push her towards others.
When Qiao Muyi heard this, he vaguely noticed something. He was not stupid. Ever since Lei Yan appeared, he had sensed that something was wrong with Xiao Muyou's mood. However, he did not reveal it, and in the atmosphere at this moment, once some things were revealed, he could only
It will make everyone more embarrassed.
When Lei Yan heard Xiao Muyou's words, he pulled out a wry smile and then said something.
"Both Mr. Qiao and Miss Xiao come from aristocratic families. They are equally matched in terms of family background and status. In this regard, they are better than countless lovers. Isn't it a match made in heaven?"
When Lei Yan said this, Xiao Muyou took a sip of the red wine in front of him and then said.
"I didn't expect Mr. Lei to have the potential to be a matchmaker. Regarding what you said, it seems that I have to seriously consider my relationship with Mr. Qiao. Maybe I can create a good relationship because of Mr. Lei's words.
When the time comes, Qiao Muyi and I will definitely come to thank you."
Xiao Muyou squeezed the red wine glass tightly with her fingers, feeling like she could crush it at any time.
At this time, Qiao Muyi had confirmed his suspicions. When he looked at Lei Yan, his expression was much more complicated. To be more serious, he and Lei Yan should be considered love rivals now, and looking at the situation, Xiao Muyou had probably fallen in love with her.
Got this man.
Facing Xiao Muyou's aggressiveness, Lei Yan only responded lightly.
"Miss Xiao is serious. I just think Miss Xiao shouldn't miss a good relationship. Come on, let me toast you two."
With that said, Lei Yan picked up the wine glass and drank the red wine in one gulp. Xiao Muyou did the same. Seeing this, Qiao Muyi on the side immediately grabbed the wine glass from Xiao Muyou's hand and said softly.
"Mu You, you have a bad stomach, don't drink too much."
Xiao Muyou smiled slightly and looked at Qiao Muyi with a gentle look. It was obvious that she was deliberately angry with Lei Yan.
"Mu Yi, I'm fine."
This was the first time that Xiao Muyou called Qiao Muyi's name so intimately. Qiao Muyi knew very well that Xiao Muyou was trying to stimulate Lei Yan, but upon hearing this gentle call, his heart softened a lot and he looked at Xiao Muyi.
Yuu's eyes became even more passionate and doting.
"Here, eat some foie gras. This foie gras is well cooked, fat but not greasy."
Qiao Muyi gave Xiao Muyou a piece of foie gras. Xiao Muyou took it and took a bite. Then she also gave Qiao Muyi a piece.
"You should eat some too."
One did it deliberately, and the other wanted to be good to Xiao Muyou from the bottom of his heart. For a moment, Lei Yan was like an outsider. Seeing the sweet looks of Qiao Muyi and Xiao Muyou, he regretted staying for dinner.
The delicacies in front of him are now tasteless to him, but isn't all this what he wants to see? He obviously hopes that Xiao Muyou can be taken care of by a better man than himself, but when he really sees it, why is he so uncomfortable?
It feels like breathing is painful.
Finally, Lei Yan couldn't bear it anymore, so he interrupted the sweetness between the two people opposite.
"Mr. Qiao, Miss Xiao, I've finished eating, so I won't disturb you two anymore and take my leave."
After saying that, Lei Yan stood up and left. Xiao Muyou didn't hold him back. Qiao Muyi looked at Xiao Muyou worriedly.
When Lei Yan left, he bought the order, walked out of the restaurant, and suddenly a cold wind hit him. He had lived in Kyoto for more than a year, and he had never felt that the night in Kyoto was so cold.
In the restaurant, Xiao Muyou didn't have the same smile as before, his expression was gloomy, and he held the fork in his hand and stabbed the steak in front of him without a doubt.
"Does this steak have any grudge against you?"
Qiao Muyi's voice sounded, and Xiao Muyou realized that he was distracted, smiled awkwardly, and then put down his fork.
"So, he is the reason why you keep rejecting me."
Qiao Muyi never hides his concerns in front of Xiao Muyou, and he asks questions very directly.
Xiao Muyou was stunned for a moment, smiled bitterly, and did not deny it.
"Is it so obvious?"
Qiao Muyi originally hoped that Xiao Muyou would give a negative answer, but after hearing these words, his heart suddenly hit the bottom, but he still showed a relaxed look on his face and nodded.
"Is it just written on your face? Have you been together?"
Qiao Muyi asked curiously, or maybe he wanted to know about Xiao Muyou's past, and maybe create some opportunities for himself.
Hearing Qiao Muyi's question, Xiao Muyou's expression became even more sad, and he sighed softly.
"It never started. He just regarded me as an ordinary friend."
At this time, Qiao Muyi smiled, and Xiao Muyou seemed to have thought of something, smiled apologetically, and said again.
"I'm sorry, I think this may be my retribution for rejecting you."
"It's okay, I am a person who is a little heartless sometimes. Besides, if I catch you all at once, how can you show how precious you are in my heart? Anyway, I still said what I said before, as long as you haven't
If you get married, then I still have a chance. Of course, I won't put pressure on you. Just like what we said just now, start with friends."
Hearing what Qiao Muyi said, Xiao Muyou smiled.
"If you look like this, can I say that you are a bit of a stalker?"
"Isn't there a saying? A martyr girl is afraid of pestering a man. If I keep pestering you, maybe one day you will think that I am not a bad person and can develop a bit."
"But you should know by now, I don't love you."
Xiao Muyou suddenly said seriously that she was hurt by Lei Yan. She knew the pain of being rejected, so she didn't want to hurt an innocent person again.
But Qiao Muyi shrugged nonchalantly and said.
"It's not now, I knew it before, but so what, who can guarantee what will happen in the future? Otherwise, why are there so many men and women who have broken up in this world? I will queue up here first, and wait for you to do it someday.
If he lets it go, it will eventually be my turn."
When Qiao Muyi said this, Xiao Muyou laughed again, shook her head and said.
"Qiao Muyi, when you say this, I look like a scumbag!"
"A scumbag? I don't think so. Anyway, I like you like this. In short, I will wait for you, Xiao Muyou, but I'm warning you, don't let others jump in line, understand?"
"Okay, let's eat quickly."
Being teased like this by Qiao Muyi, Xiao Muyou's mood improved a lot. She was a little dazed when she looked at Qiao Muyi. If she didn't know Lei Yan before Qiao Muyi came back, maybe she would really fall in love with this warm man.
It's a pity that there is no if.
