Chapter 306 Is it a coincidence?
The plane landed safely. Mu Nanyan held Chenchen's hand, followed by Lu Yiran, and the three of them went straight to the underground parking lot.
Sitting in Mu Nanyan's white Mercedes, she happened to meet Chenchen's sparkling eyes when she adjusted the rearview mirror.
Mu Nanyan asked softly, "Chenchen, what do you want to eat today?"
Chenchen subconsciously wanted to talk about hotpot, but he caught a glimpse of Lu Yiran sitting in the passenger seat out of the corner of his eye.
The little fellow rolled his eyes and said in a mature manner:
"I'm fine with either. Sister Yan, you decide."
Mu Nanyan looked at Chenchen's hesitant expression in the rearview mirror, and glanced at Lu Yiran who was pretending to look at the scenery outside the window.
Mu Nanyan knew Chenchen too well. If she asked him what to eat on other days, he would choose hot pot without hesitation. But today she let her decide for herself, which was really strange.
The only explanation Mu Nanyan could think of was Lu Yiran, because he couldn't eat spicy food.
"Okay."
Mu Nanyan started the car, turned the steering wheel, and the car drove out of the parking lot smoothly.
Mu Nanyan took them to a local cuisine restaurant. Zhou Ruxuan had told her about that restaurant several times and praised it every time. Unfortunately, she had never found a suitable opportunity to try it. It just so happened that she could go today.
About half an hour later, the car slowly stopped in front of an elegant courtyard.
A few red lanterns are hung on the courtyard wall made of green bricks and gray tiles, swaying gently in the breeze.
The three large characters "Rui Fu Yuan" on the wooden plaque are written in flowing strokes, and appear particularly majestic under the light.
"Sister Yan, it's so beautiful here!"
As soon as Chenchen got off the car, he looked around excitedly, with curiosity shining in his round eyes.
Mu Nanyan gently rubbed his little head: "This is highly recommended by your sister Xuan. I heard it tastes very good."
Her eyes inadvertently swept over Lu Yiran who was standing beside her. He was looking at the quaint building thoughtfully.
Lu Yiran was indeed a little surprised. He had thought that Mu Nanyan would find an excuse to send him away after getting off the plane. Unexpectedly, not only did she not drive him away, she also tacitly allowed him to come with her for dinner.
This realization caused a subtle emotion to arise in his heart.
Mu Nanyan took the lead and pushed open the carved wooden door. The faint aroma of Longjing tea hit her face. A waiter in a simple and elegant cheongsam came forward with a smile and said, "Please come in, three of you."
Her voice is gentle and melodious, which complements the quaint atmosphere of the restaurant.
The waiter took them to their seats. Mu Nanyan picked up the menu and ordered a few of their signature dishes. After the waiter left, Chenchen tugged at Mu Nanyan's sleeve and said,
"Sister Yan, I want to go to the bathroom."
Lu Yiran, who was lowering his head to reply to the message, looked up when he heard this:
"I'll take him."
His eyes met Mu Nanyan's briefly, and she nodded slightly, tacitly agreeing to the proposal.
Mu Nanyan looked at the two people's backs as they left, picked up the teacup and took a sip.
At this moment, a sudden phone ring broke the silence of the restaurant.
She looked in the direction of the sound and found that it was Lu Yiran's cell phone that he had left on the table. It was now vibrating and flashing on the dark tablecloth.
Mu Nanyan looked towards the bathroom and guessed that they should be back soon, so she didn't touch his personal belongings rashly.
When the first call was automatically disconnected due to no one answering, Mu Nanyan felt relieved, but the phone kept ringing stubbornly, as if it was competing with her.
After the first call went unanswered, the second and third calls followed...
When the fifth call came, Mu Nanyan finally couldn't help but pick up the phone.
It was really not what she wanted to see, mainly because the guests at other tables kept looking at her. She was really a little embarrassed, sitting there, not knowing whether to answer the call or not.
But when she saw the name flashing on the screen, she froze in place as if struck by lightning. The caller ID showed the two big characters "Chu Ci".
Her fingertips trembled slightly.
Was it a coincidence? Or was this Chu Ci the same Chu Ci she knew?
How did Lu Yiran know Tang Yutong's boyfriend? Countless questions suddenly flooded her mind, causing her hand holding the phone to tighten unconsciously.
