There was still a faint smile on Shengge's face, "Master Xu was joking, we have never been too familiar."
Ning Chengxu's pupils trembled, and he subconsciously wanted to grab her little hand, but she noticed and avoided it.
"You don't even want me to touch you? I know you were resentful of me for what happened back then, but I was only that old and I didn't have a choice..."
"Master Xu."
Shengge interrupted him and talked about old things. She looked unhappy and said, "If you asked me out today just to talk about this, then this meal is completely unnecessary."
"Okay, let's not mention this."
Ning Chengxu shut up.
The waiter just brought the food to the table, which relieved the depressed atmosphere between the two.
Except for the sound of moving knives and forks, the two of them were very quiet.
Until Ning Chengxu took the lead to break the silence again, "This time I plan to stay in Fangcheng for a while. I heard from Lu Hua that you have been checking evidence recently. Don't worry, I will help you."
"good."
Shengge is not pretentious either.
One code equals one code, he volunteered to help, and she had no reason to refuse.
Ning Chengxu was very happy to see that she agreed quickly.
Those deep blue eyes, with a very devilish smile.
While elegantly cutting off a piece of beef, he asked casually, "I also heard that the man today is your ex-husband. You signed an employment agreement with him and turned him into your manservant?"
"Yes." Shengge didn't hide it.
Ning Chengxu hesitated, "Do you still have feelings for him..."
Shengge raised her eyes, her expression instantly turned cold, "This is my private matter."
"Okay, I won't ask. Anyway, since I'm here this time, I won't let anyone bully you."
Shengge's pupils were slightly complicated. She looked at the half-eaten beef on the dinner plate and said with a smile, "People change. We haven't seen each other for seven years. You still remember my taste, but you don't know that my taste is actually earlier."
It has already changed, can you understand what I mean?"
Ning Chengxu's face froze.
How could he not understand what she meant, but he was unwilling to do so.
They just missed each other for seven years, aren't they reunited now?
Shengge ate carelessly and continued, "But you haven't changed. You used to be domineering and liked to make decisions for me. It's still the same today, but I'm no longer the one who just followed you around and did nothing.
The little girl understands."
"Isn't it bad to be overbearing? Snuggling into the arms of a powerful man and being a pampered little woman is not the happiness that many girls in this world pursue?"
Shengge just laughed and didn't refute.
Maybe many girls are like this.
But she never bothered to be a canary in a man's cage. She preferred to be her own queen.
As for men, as long as she has money, she is willing to raise a few as her caged birds.
The whole meal was tasteless to Shengge.
When we came out of the restaurant, the weather outside had changed, the wind was strong, and it felt cool on our face.
Ning Chengxu took off his military coat and prepared to put it on her.
Shengge refused, "No, I'm not cold."
Ning Chengxu curled his lips and smiled, then put the dark green and black fur coat on her shoulders, wrapping her small shoulders.
Shengge frowned slightly, not happy.
It seems that he still didn't understand what I said to him during the meal.
She was about to speak again when Hua Yun suddenly came over and whispered into her ear.
"Miss, Third Young Master asked me to come to you. You guessed it right. In the past few days, three groups of people have been sent to hunt down the killers who were let go. One of them unfortunately died on the way to escape, and the other was
We were rescued and he said he wanted to see you."
