Madam had started eating before the man of the house said anything!
The butler swallowed hard and looked at Si Zhengting, but he only wrinkled his brows and then slowly picked up his chopsticks.
The old butler instantly understood. Madam was certainly special to Sir.
He then kept still and observed quietly.
Zhuang Nainai ate her meal with a heavy heart and therefore failed to notice that all the dishes on the table were her favorites.
After having some food in her stomach, her cold heart was warmed a little and her misery was halved.
In any case, she was lucky.
Lucky to be able to marry the only man she truly loved in this life. Even though he did not like her, he did not love another.
They had already tied the knot and consummated their marriage, what was the point in fussing over whether or not he liked her?
Zhuang Nainai put down her chopsticks at this thought and wanted to leave the table to go wash up upstairs. But she saw Si Zhengting was still eating and could not bring herself to say it.
She observed him stealthily with her peripheral vision.
He looked very graceful when he ate. His movements were elegant and unrushed.
The white shirt he was wearing reminded Zhuang Nainai of the young boy from years ago.
They all ate lunch at school during high school.
The bunch of conglomerate heirs did not ask for any special treatment and ate the same thing as everyone else.
The more affluent they were, the more they took note of their upbringing.
To win Si Zhengting’s heart back then, Zhuang Nainai tried to find out his tastes and preferences. She noticed that he ate more mushrooms and hence brewed some mushroom soup for him.
The actions of youth are always so innocent and straightforward. She spared no costs to do things for the person she liked.
The mushroom in the thermal bottle was still warm by lunchtime. Zhuang Nainai’s eyes smiled when she spotted Si Zhengting in the cafeteria. She ran to him carrying her soup. “Si Zhengting, Si Zhengting, look at the mushroom soup I made for you, it’s really good! Try some!”
She ran too hurriedly and tripped on Zuo Yiyi’s foot. The soup flew out of her hands.
Si Zhengting dodged in time but some soup splattered onto his shirt.
Zhuang Nainai was not so lucky. She fell onto the floor and was sprawled on top of the spilled soup.
Her hands landed in the liquid and she closed her eyes tightly when it created a big splash over the soup.
She came back to her senses after a while and turned first to give Zuo Yiyi a death stare. She then looked anxiously at Si Zhengting, eager to offer some explanation. But when she saw him, she suddenly laughed and laughed, “Si Zhengting, look what a good match we make now, you are covered in mushrooms, and so am I. Hahaha!”
A dark gloom came over Si Zhengting’s face and he gave her a cold stare. He turned and left in a huff, leaving his lunch untouched.
He was so good back then!
The worst he would do when he was angry was to ignore her. He would not go around smashing handphones as he would now.
What an overbearing tyrant!
She looked around the room. No one dared to utter a word. Zhuang Nainai pouted and lowered her head. She was scared too.
She did not notice the reddening ears of the man at the table.
