Chapter 1549 The Hand Under the Table
So Xiao Chongyang answered the phone directly at the dining table.
"We won't acquire Feng Zhang's company. Let him go bankrupt and then take back all his assets, including the house and car I gave him. After that, we'll destroy his eyesight and throw him back on the island to live out the rest of his life."
The person on the other end of the phone said something, probably pleading for Feng Zhang.
Xiao Chongyang snorted coldly: "I gave him his eyes. Everything he has achieved today is also due to me. If I can give it to him, I can take it back. Since he is a disobedient dog, why keep him? Just do as I say."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
For some reason, the dinner knife in Xiao Hanlu's hand fell to the ground, making a frightening metallic sound.
Mu Ying was also startled, and the knife in her hand shook, causing it to slip while cutting the steak.
The next moment, under the table, the young master placed his hand on her thigh and patted it.
Mu Ying's body stiffened and she looked at him beside her.
The young master also looked at her: "You want me to help you cut it?"
There was concern in his eyes, and he clearly wanted to comfort her.
The thing is, young master, you can just comfort someone, but it’s inappropriate to touch someone’s thigh, right?
And why don’t you let go?
Mu Ying was wearing a skirt today, with bare legs, without even a pair of stockings. At this moment, the young master's warm palm covered her thigh, and she seemed to be able to feel even the thin calluses on his palm.
This helped her relieve her tension, and she temporarily forgot about the hidden meaning in Xiao Chongyang's words just now, which was to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys. All she felt left was the uncomfortable feeling of her face getting hot and her heart pounding.
"No need, I can do it myself..."
After the young master touched her thigh, her voice became unnatural and her throat was dry.
Seeing that he didn't withdraw his hand, Mu Ying put down her knife and fork and reached out to brush away the young master's hand.
The result was like Calabash Brothers saving their grandfather, sending them one by one. Not only did she fail to brush away the young master's big hand, but her hand was also caught by him.
The young master just held her hand and continued to place it on her thigh.
Mu Ying asked weakly, "Master, don't you want to eat..."
The young master held her left hand with his right hand, so she could continue to eat with her right hand, but the young master's left hand was not very convenient.
But she was obviously worrying too much.
The young master picked up the fork in his left hand and ate the veal on the plate gracefully. He smiled at her, moved closer to her, and whispered, "It's no problem."
The two of them were whispering to each other at the dinner table. Mu Ying felt a little embarrassed and her face suddenly turned red.
Xiao Hanlu, who was sitting across from them, had already bent down to pick up the table knife from the ground and replaced it with a new one. She teased them, "You two are really annoying. You even hold hands and whisper to each other while eating."
Mu Ying choked immediately. The young master smiled and patted her back, "We are all family, there is no need to be so shy."
Mu Ying suppressed her cough and quickly glanced at Xiao Chongyang.
Xiao Chongyang was also looking at the young master at this time, narrowing his eyes.
She suddenly understood that the young master's ambiguity with her was also to let Xiao Chongyang know that the young master had no guilty conscience and was not afraid of his warning to scare the monkeys. So she was very relaxed and didn't think much of it at all. She only wanted to be with her.
After realizing this, Mu Ying adjusted her mood.
It was wrong for the young master to touch her thigh casually, but his behavior was correct.
In front of Xiao Chongyang, she should be calmer and not lose her composure.
This disturbing dinner was finally over.
Mu Ying originally thought that maybe she should just sit for a while after dinner before going back, but Xiao Chongyang said to the young master, "Ling Feng, you and A Ying, don't be in such a hurry to leave. Let's digest the food first. Come to my study in half an hour. I have something to tell you."
He wiped the corner of his mouth with his napkin, stood up from the dining chair, and added, "It will probably be very late after this chat, so you two shouldn't go back. There are plenty of rooms anyway, so stay one night before leaving."
