This was the first time in recent days that the two of them shared a comfortable meal together. After eating and drinking to her heart’s content, Chi Shuyan realized that Chef Li was still serving dishes. There was a huge table full of dishes, and they didn’t stop coming one after another. Chi Shuyan felt helpless at Chef Li’s enthusiasm.
She originally wanted to be alone and to see the two little guys, but with this ticking time bomb next to her, Chi Shuyan really wasn’t in the mood.
After putting down her bowl and chopsticks, her gaze fell on the man’s cold and sharp face. Seeing that he was much more normal today, she heaved a sigh of relief.
She thought about it and wanted to lay her cards on the table now. She wasn’t deliberately playing hard to get with this man, nor was she deliberately trying to capture his attention so that he would chase her again.
She still found the man displeasing to the eye, but she was quite calm in her heart. She didn’t even want to fuss over the fact that he had given her the cold shoulder for several days, had proposed breaking up, and had flirted with another woman.
She felt that she shouldn’t have agreed to try dating him at all.
The two of them had only been dating for less than half a year, but they had already broken up. They hadn’t even lasted half a year, to say nothing of a lifetime. A lifetime was too long.
Of course, Chi Shuyan also knew that the other party couldn’t be blamed for the breakup. It should be said that both sides were in the wrong. It could only be said that the two of them weren’t compatible.
All she wanted to do now was listen to her teacher and focus on her cultivation. As for him getting into another relationship after they broke up, she would respect his decision.
The only thing she regretted was that the Qi family had treated her very well, especially Grandpa Qi, Father Qi and Mother Qi. They simply treated her like their own daughter.
Thinking this, Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but feel terrible again.
Chi Shuyan was lost in thought as she stared blankly at the dishes on the table.
On the side, Qi Zhenbai saw his wife staring at the dishes and thought that she was still hungry. He reached out with his chopsticks and picked up her favorite stir-fried green beans and eggplant. He brought it to her lips and said in a deep and charming voice, “Open your mouth!”
Chi Shuyan subconsciously opened her mouth. The man’s eyes were gentle as he immediately stuffed food into his wife’s mouth.
Only after Chi Shuyan chewed and swallowed the food did she realize what had just happened. She looked at the man in front of her with a complicated expression, and then found him more pleasing to the eye.
Forget it, she would make things clear with him in a few days. She wasn’t in a hurry. It was better to wait for this man to calm down.
After eating and drinking his fill, Qi Zhenbai suggested going out for a walk. He made up his mind to take his wife home today.
Although Chi Shuyan found the man a little more pleasing to the eye, that didn’t mean that she was willing to go out with him. Since she had already made up her mind to concentrate on cultivating, she didn’t want to be with this man any longer.
If they were stuck in this ambiguous relationship, what would happen?
Chi Shuyan quickly refused. “I don’t really want to walk around. I still have something on, so I have to go back to the villa first! You go yourself!”
Chi Shuyan realized that after she said this, the initial gentleness in the man’s expression immediately vanished. His soft features gradually turned cold and stern. His sharp, black eyes shot out sharp and dark light as he stared unblinkingly at her. The man’s eyes were bottomless, and it was like he wanted to bore a hole into her face.
Chi Shuyan’s heart subconsciously turned cold and she cringed. She looked at his expression and behavior, afraid that he would suddenly become moody and waste all the food cooked by Chef Li. She hurriedly gripped the tablecloth and swallowed, but was determined not to admit defeat.
After a while, however, her back broke out in a cold sweat and turned cold under the man’s sharp, black hawk-like gaze. She gritted her teeth and couldn’t take it anymore, so she could only relent and change her words. “Fine, let’s go for a walk!”
The man’s voice rang out at the same time. “Okay, I’ll send you back and pick you up tomorrow!”
Chi Shuyan: …
Without waiting for Chi Shuyan to agree, Qi Zhenbai’s cold and hard face revealed an especially gentle, handsome and happy smile. He pursed his thin lips and beat her to it. “Okay, I’ll listen to my wife. Let’s go out for a walk!”
Chi Shuyan: …
She wanted to vomit blood.
In the end, no matter how unwilling Chi Shuyan was, she still had to obediently follow the man out. Qi Zhenbai was in a very good mood and his cold, hard eyes were filled with a gentle smile. When the attendant entered the private room with another dish, Qi Zhenbai took the initiative to say, “Tell Chef Li not to serve any more dishes. My wife wants me to take her out for a walk!”
The man’s expression was restrained, but his tone was faintly happy and boastful.
The restaurant attendant: …
Chi Shuyan: …
Chi Shuyan deeply felt that Qi Zhenbai was too thick-skinned this time. She couldn’t compare with him. As for his words, she couldn’t vomit blood, so she could only ignore them.
The imposing man got up as he spoke, walked over to Chi Shuyan and took her hand.
Chi Shuyan shook it a few times, but couldn’t shake off the man’s hand, so she could only give up.
Chi Shuyan looked like she was doubting life after they left Imperial Restaurant. They walked down the road, a black car following behind them carefully.
If Qi Zhenbai’s emotions had been restrained earlier in Imperial Restaurant with outsiders around, he didn’t hide the smile on his face at all as he walked with his wife. It reached his eyes, and his cold and hard face was wreathed in smiles, even if his thin lips were still pursed. There was no trace of his usual seriousness and rigidity, and he was much more animated.
As for Chi Shuyan, apart from doubting life, she was still a bit stupefied. To be honest, the two of them had been dating for almost half a year, and though they were usually sweet, they had never held hands on the streets like an ordinary couple.
It would have been fine if they had a good relationship, but the point was that they were going to break up in a few days.
