She got into the car.
She didn’t know if it was her illusion, but she felt Gong Zeli stiffen.
But soon, he returned to normal.
Qiao Mianmian wondered if she’d seen wrongly.
…
20 minutes later, in a high-class restaurant in F City.
Gong Zeli booked a private room, and the waiter led them there.
After entering the private room, Qiao Mianmian took off her mask.
She was afraid of being slandered and being photographed together with Gong Zeli.
She and Gong Zeli had enough rumors.
Even though they tried to deny it, some people still didn’t believe it and felt that they had an unusual relationship.
After the waiter left.
Gong Zeli walked to the table like a gentleman and pulled out a chair. He then said to her, “Have a seat.”
Qiao Mianmian was speechless.
She wasn’t used to it.
Even though Gong Zeli wasn’t as annoying as before, and his attitude towards her wasn’t as bad as before, she still wasn’t used to him suddenly being so gentlemanly in front of her.
It felt strange.
She sat down uncomfortably under the man’s gaze.
Gong Zeli slowly sat down opposite her.
“Are you hungry?” He picked up the menu on the table and looked up at her. “What do you want to eat?”
Qiao Mianmian was speechless.
The man’s gentle tone made her feel even stranger.
This was worlds apart from the past him.
Qiao Mianmian couldn’t take it anymore. She kept quiet for a while before asking, “Mr. Gong, why are you looking for me?”
“Let’s eat first.” Gong Zeli didn’t answer her question. Instead, he handed her the menu and said, “You can order it. Order what you like. If you don’t like this restaurant, we can go somewhere else.”
Qiao Mianmian was speechless.
“Mr. Gong, I’m not hungry. Can you tell me why you’re looking for me?”
She didn’t want to eat with Gong Zeli.
She’d thought that Gong Zeli had something to discuss with her.
But looking at him… was he really going to have lunch with her?
Gong Zeli kept his hand in the air as he handed her the menu. “There’s no rush. We’ll talk later. Eat first. I don’t think you have anything else to do. You’re not in a hurry to go back, right?”
Qiao Mianmian was speechless.
She wasn’t in a hurry to go back, but that didn’t mean she wanted to stay with him.
She didn’t want it at all.
She looked at the man’s hand still in mid-air and frowned. After hesitating for a while, she reached out and took the menu.
Forget it, it was just a meal at most.
She could just bear with it.
Thankfully, Gong Zeli wasn’t so annoying now, and it wasn’t so unbearable to interact with him.
Qiao Mianmian wasn’t interested in anything at all. She casually picked up a few dishes and handed the menu back.
Gong Zeli looked at the menu and frowned. “You only ordered a few dishes? Are the dishes not to your liking?”
They were all relatively cheap dishes.
