The Big Boss & His Dainty Wife

Chapter 219: Withdrew His Tenderness to Her_1

“Hai Xiaotang could tell from her reaction that she truly disliked that man.

She decided not to press further, “Alright, let’s not talk about this. The food is here, let’s eat.”

A uniformed waiter pushed a silver trolley over to their table.

“Ladies, here is your lunch. Please enjoy.” The waiter arranged the exquisite dishes on the table.

Both Hai Xiaotang and Qiao Ning were astonished.

“We didn’t order these!” Hai Xiaotang exclaimed.

The waiter smiled, “This is what you ordered.”

Hai Xiaotang was even more shocked, “But this is not what we ordered.”

Qiao Ning nodded,”Exactly, we didn’t order this royal steak.”

Not just the steak—none of the dishes were what they ordered. The waiter served them the restaurant’s finest and most exquisite dishes.

They hadn’t ordered such expensive dishes. They were aware that these dishes would collectively cost tens of thousands.

The waiter had no choice but to explain, “Mr. Dongfang has ordered these for Hai Xiaotang and her friend.”

Hai Xiaotang was taken aback, it was Dongfang Yu!

Realization dawned on Qiao Ning, and she immediately teased Hai Xiaotang, “Xiaotang, Mr. Dongfang really treats you well.”

Hai Xiaotang complained, “I only told him 1 would be eating here, I didn’t expect him to do this!”

“Xiaotang, you liar. You were texting Mr. Dongfang earlier!” Qiao Ning immediately pretended to be angry, “Hmm, I didn’t see that coming. You are a little liar!”

Hai Xiaotang didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, she quickly apologized, “It was my fault, Qiao Ning. It was all my fault. Please don’t be mad.”

Qiao Ning’s eyes gleamed, she raised her eyebrow, “I can let it go. But tell me, what’s really going on between you and Dongfang Yu? You two seem to have some issues.”

“Well, there is nothing really…” Hai Xiaotang was about to explain something when she suddenly saw Chai Xiyang and Lin Xinxin walking into the restaurant!

Upon seeing them, she was suddenly lost for words.

Qiao Ning, puzzled, turned her head and saw them too!

She was momentarily stunned, her mood plummeting instantly.

“Qiao Ning, let’s eat quickly. Since Dongfang Yu is treating, we must not be polite!” Hai Xiaotang hurriedly tried to distract her.

Qiao Ning slowly turned her gaze back to Hai Xiaotang and asked, “Xiaotang, do you think those two are together?”

Hai Xiaotang pretended not to notice the unusual expression on her face and said nonchalantly, “They are just having a meal together, it doesn’t mean anything.”

Qiao Ning’s eyes dropped, “But, my brother seems to like her a lot…”

“But she doesn’t like your brother! Don’t worry, they won’t be together!” Hai Xiaotang comforted her.

In fact, she wanted to say, what’s good about Chai Xiyang? Just let him go and let him like his Lin Xinxin!

However, since Qiao Ning didn’t want her to know what she was thinking, she didn’t expose her.

But her consolation had no effect on Qiao Ning.

Because she saw Chai Xiyang carefully pulling out the chair for Lin Xinxin, smiling gently at her all the while.

Looking at his handsome smile, Qiao Ning felt a sudden sting in her eyes.

Her heart was aching as if someone had scooped out a large chunk of it.

If she had never won him over with that sort of smile, she would not be this miserable.

However, she did win his affection, too many times in fact, to the point where she had already fallen hopelessly for him.

But now, he had taken back his gentleness towards her, and given it to someone else…

Qiao Ning suddenly found it hard to breathe. Perhaps her gaze was too direct; Chai Xiyang noticed and looked over!
