Qin Zhihao kept talking the whole way, and he didn't stop even after we arrived at the restaurant and sat down.
"By the way, I heard from my younger brother that Xie Xiaodong was hit by a car and is still in the hospital."
"Is he dead?" Qin Zhihao asked casually as he flipped through the menu, as if he couldn't be happier for Xie Xiaodong to die.
"Don't say that. I also bear some responsibility for what happened to Xiao Dong. I feel terrible that you're talking about him like that." Shen Huai'an said with a look of self-reproach. He took a deep breath. "If it weren't for me, he wouldn't have suffered such a misfortune."
After Lin Wanxing sat down, he looked forward to the dessert. He heard his second brother say those things again. His second brother had always felt guilty about this matter, and the culprit was Shen Taimin.
Qin Zhihao reached up and touched his face, saying nonchalantly:
"You didn't hit him, why are you blaming yourself like this?"
A slight change appeared on Shen Huai'an's face. He had instructed Zheng Hu and Qin Junming not to tell anyone what happened that night.
Qin Junming probably wouldn't have said that to Qin Zhihao, right? Qin Zhihao probably just said it offhand.
"His accident should be blamed on the person who hit him, not on you. Xie Xiaodong, he's always been a very strange person."
After saying that, Qin Zhihao winked at Lin Wanxing, "Little Star, do you also think that guy is no good?"
Lin Wanxing certainly disliked Xie Xiaodong, but since Xie Xiaodong had done such a thing for his second brother, his dislike gradually lessened.
“He is my second brother’s friend and helps him with his work. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with him. His sudden accident made my second brother sad for a long time, but it actually has little to do with my second brother.”
"Those who secretly plot against others are the most despicable. They are truly wicked. I have never seen such shameless villains before."
Lin Wanxing was referring to Shen Taimin, a shameless scoundrel. He was rotten to the core, yet he always pretended to be a good older brother. It was all Shen Taimin's doing.
"Second brother, don't feel guilty or remorseful about Xie Xiaodong anymore. The real bad guys who hurt Xie Xiaodong are probably laughing their heads off in the corner when they see you so upset."
Shen Huai'an nodded seriously, "Xingxing, you're right. The person who really harmed Xiaodong is probably very happy right now. The moment Xiaodong was hit by the car, I wished I was the one who was hit. I dragged Xiaodong into this, but I will find the culprit and give Xiaodong an explanation."
Find the culprit, but how? How do we explain this to Xie Xiaodong? The best explanation is that Shen Huai'an floored the accelerator and knocked the person flying.
"It's a pity that Xiaodong can't attend our wedding banquet next month. Xingxing, you have no idea how much he's looking forward to our wedding. After the misunderstanding last time, he's been hoping for us to get married. Now that we're together, it must be his wish too."
Qin Zhihao chuckled, "I don't believe Xie Xiaodong has such good intentions. He actually hopes you two will get married?"
Qin Zhihao felt that Xie Xiaodong was a very two-faced person; what he said and what he did were completely different, a hypocrite.
Lin Wanxing could tell from his voice that Qin Zhihao had absolutely no good impression of Xie Xiaodong.
Qin Zhihao disliked Xie Xiaodong the most. Xie Xiaodong had been scheming since childhood. The only reason he could hang out with Shen Huai'an was because he valued Shen Er's status.
"Xie Xiaodong, you should have died long ago." Qin Zhihao muttered softly after taking a sip of soup.
"My second brother and I are going to get married sooner or later. We've already sent out the invitations, and we're just waiting to have the banquet next month," Lin Wanxing said earnestly.
He loved his second brother, and marrying him was a fulfillment of his wish.
Hearing the clatter of high heels in the distance, Fang Jingxue walked over, wearing a white knitted dress. She had a noble and elegant demeanor, and her long, straight black hair flowed down, exuding a quiet and gentle charm. Knowing that these people had come to eat, she deliberately came over to ask, "How's the food, everyone?"
"Is the food to your liking?" Fang Jingxue asked.
"It's delicious! The food here is the best in the whole of Jiangcheng. Boss Fang is so beautiful, I would feel like I'm missing out if I didn't eat here."
"We feel honored that such a beautiful woman came to ask us in person."
Fang Jingxue laughed. This Qin Zhihao has always been so glib; he hasn't changed at all over the years.
"Stop talking nonsense." Fang Jingxue pushed Qin Zhihao. "Don't think I don't know you. You have to pay for your meal today, or don't blame me for being impolite."
Qin Zhihao gave a dry laugh, realizing that his little scheme had been exposed.
He said he was treating Shen Huai'an and Lin Wanxing to dinner, but he just wouldn't pay. What kind of treat is that?
"By the way, Huai'an, I heard you and Wanxing are getting married next month. Congratulations in advance!" Fang Jingxue exclaimed, admiring how good their relationship was, saying it was truly enviable.
"Come drink at the wedding," Shen Huai'an said with a smile.
Qin Zhihao glanced at the young couple opposite him; they were two guys who always liked to show off their affection.
"Alright, I won't stay any longer. I have to go now. Enjoy your meal." Fang Jingxue said and left, as if she had something urgent to attend to.
Watching the beautiful woman's departing figure, Qin Zhihao said regretfully, "Fang Jingxue's restaurant is going to go out of business. She's been trying to transfer the business to someone else recently."
"Look at the decor here, and then look at the effort and money invested in this place. I feel sorry for Fang Jingxue. Such a good restaurant is closing down just like that. We should take advantage of this time and come to this restaurant a few more times so that we don't miss out on the benefits later."
"I'm quitting!" Lin Wanxing immediately realized that without this restaurant, she wouldn't be able to enjoy so many delicious foods in the future.
