"Come and sit down quickly." Han Guosheng awkwardly withdrew his hand, but still eagerly gestured for him to sit down.

Inside the restaurant, Zhou Yunmeng had already arranged a seat for Nangong Jue, the head seat, and had even refilled the tableware and added a few more dishes.

However, after Nangong Jue walked over, he did not sit in the main seat, but instead stood next to Le Yao.

Le Yao had been calmly admiring the handsome man, but now that he was standing next to her, she felt a chill run down her spine. Why was this jerk standing so close to her? She just wanted to admire him from afar…

"Your Excellency, this way please..." Han Guosheng gestured for Nangong Jue to take a seat.

“My wife is here. Why are you asking us to sit separately?” Nangong Jue’s expression darkened slightly.

"Ah, this... of course not." Han Guosheng quickly realized what was going on and had the maid move a chair next to Le Yao. He thought to himself, "Didn't they say they were separated and getting a divorce? It doesn't seem like it at all. But this is for the best."

Nangong Jue's expression finally softened. He sat down next to Le Yao, picked up his chopsticks, and began to eat. It was clear that although he came from a humble background, his manners were impeccable, and his movements were very elegant, like a prince.

"Come, Your Excellency, this pigeon soup has been simmering all morning." Zhou Yunmeng wanted to curry favor, so he gestured to his daughter, "Xiaoqian, serve Your Excellency some soup."

Han Xueqian smiled and stood up, gracefully ladling a bowl of soup with her delicate fingers and handing it to him: "Your Excellency, please have some." Then she glanced at Le Yao, "Alan, you should also take care of Your Excellency."

Nangong Jue suddenly looked up at Han Xueqian, frowning slightly: "White lotus?"

"What?" Han Xueqian didn't hear clearly.

Le Yao was also taken aback. She had heard it clearly, but she didn't understand what this guy meant.

"Haha." Zhu Jiaojiao laughed, "Lord said you're a white lotus."

Han Xueqian's smile froze instantly, and then she looked at Nangong Jue in disbelief.

"You clearly wanted to seduce me, but you pretended to be innocent, which fits the 'white lotus' persona perfectly." Nangong Jue said seriously, "Unfortunately, you're too ugly."

"You...you've gone too far." Han Xueqian cried and turned to run away.

Le Yao's lips twitched. This guy was unpredictable. Even if he knew she was a "pure and innocent" woman, he shouldn't have said it out loud. She was a beauty, after all... But, it was quite satisfying.

Han Guosheng and Zhou Yunmeng looked as if they had swallowed flies.

“My lord, let me help you.” Zhu Jiaojiao walked over with a smile. “My name is Zhu Jiaojiao, and I’m from the Zhu family of Beichuan City…”

"Green tea bitch?" Nangong Jue looked at Zhu Jiaojiao, his brows furrowing even more.

"What did you say?" Zhu Jiaojiao was also stunned.

"She's a pure white lotus, and you're a green tea bitch..." Nangong Jue raised an eyebrow slightly. "Knowing that I don't like you, and knowing that I'm married with my wife by my side, you still come to fawn over me. Aren't you a green tea bitch?"

“You…” Zhu Jiaojiao’s eyes also reddened, and she turned to look at Cui Li, “Mom, he…”

"Alright, sit down if you want to eat, otherwise get out." Cui Li's expression was not good, but because she had something to ask Le Yao, she couldn't afford to break off the relationship for the time being.

Zhu Jiaojiao was also angered and ran away.

Pfft! Le Yao couldn't help but burst out laughing. Good grief, isn't this guy supposed to be a domineering CEO? Why does he suddenly seem so childish? He drove two people away in the blink of an eye, amazing!
