Su Yan and Mixiao sat down . They sat opposite each other but they fixed their gazes on the windows to enjoy the night scenery .
Manager Zhang looked at them . He originally wanted to sit beside Su Yan .
But when he saw both of them being so quiet and well-coordinated, he thought for a moment before retreating a few steps . He bowed slightly and said to Su Yan, “President Su, I have some things to settle . You and your secretary can eat first . I’ll bring both of you to the hotel later . ”
Su Yan nodded .
He didn’t want him to eat with them either . Sitting there quietly—just the two of them—was an enjoyment .
Su Yan gazed at Mixiao, a contented smile on his face .
“President Su, here’s the menu . ”
The manager passed him an electronic menu .
Su Yan passed it to Mixiao . “Order . ”
She froze and hesitated before replying . “President Su, you should order . ”
Why was he so courteous and thoughtful? It made her uncomfortable!
He frowned . “Before we came, didn’t the President’s wife tell you not to be so courteous? Eat and drink whatever you want . ”
Mixiao didn’t object any further . “Then… I’ll order . ”
She took the menu from him and flipped it open . Her eyes brightened when she saw the names of the dishes and their respective photographs . She looked like she was glowing .
Had he exposed her gluttony?
But it seemed that most girls couldn’t resist the temptation of good food . Be it Mixiao, Su Yue or even Xuxu, they wouldn’t say no to good food .
When they went to Europe on a business trip, Xin Yanting walked past a dessert shop but she didn’t have time to eat it in the day because of her tight schedule . However, at night, she made a half-hour journey to the shop just to buy it and brought it back to the hotel .
He was about to go to bed when he heard knocking on the door . He opened the door to see her standing there wrapped in a thick coat, happily showing off two plastic bags from the dessert shop .
It was as though she had just been to war and was carrying her spoils . She was incredibly smug .
Why did his thoughts shift to her?
Su Yan hurriedly retracted his thoughts and gazed at Mixiao .
“This, this, this, this, and this…”
Mixiao glanced through the menu, as though she had a goal in mind . She couldn’t decide on which dishes to order .
She ordered eight dishes . She only realized when she scrolled to the last page . She looked at the electronic menu in her hands . She blushed and in her embarrassment, she asked, “Did I order too much?”
The manager smiled and shook her head . “No . Only eight dishes . ”
How were eight dishes enough when she was eating with the big boss?
“Uh…” Mixiao blushed even harder when she heard that she had ordered eight dishes . She bit her lip and looked at Su Yan .
Su Yan smiled . “That’s all for now . ”
“Alright . ” The manager bowed and left with the menu .
Mixiao was ecstatic . She gazed out the window and rested her face on her palms .
The sounds of the waves made her lips curl into a smile .
Suddenly, someone blew a conch from afar . It reminded her of the classic nursery rhyme ‘The Little Conch’ . Mixiao’s gaze turned swirled with complex emotions and her smile faltered slightly .
She gazed afar, the crease between her eyebrows hinting at her melancholy .
