Jing Muchen opened the car door. He was opening the door for Jiang Mengmeng, but she was a little flattered and felt that she was not worthy of all this. However, Jing Muchen was trying hard to be nice to her.
Jiang Mengmeng knew even more clearly in her heart that Jing Muchen was only nice to her because of what happened last night. It was not love at all. There was no love between them.
If you don’t love each other, what’s the point of forcing yourself to be together?
She got into the car awkwardly, and Jing Muchen also got in. He sat next to Jiang Mengmeng while the driver drove.
In the car.
Neither of them had anything to say. Jiang Mengmeng didn't dare to look at Jing Muchen. She felt that there was a high and mighty king sitting next to her, and she was just a bronze who would only lower his level.
Jing Muchen sat upright, his eyes fixed straight ahead. He actually wanted to chat with Jiang Mengmeng, but he didn't know where to start. He was getting used to their identities, and he kept reminding himself that the person next to him was his girlfriend. He had to treat her well, put her first, and consider her feelings.
But Jiang Mengmeng ignored him. What was going on?
Jing Muchen simply stopped talking. He continued to sit upright, looking at the road ahead. He got out of the car after it stopped at the restaurant. Just as he was about to open the door for her, Jiang Mengmeng got out by herself.
This is telling Jing Muchen through actions that she can do many things by herself and really doesn't need him, and he is not sincere!
They walked into the restaurant together.
This was Country F's most exclusive restaurant, and since it was dinner time, it should have been packed. But aside from the wait staff, there was no one else in the restaurant.
Obviously, Jing Muchen booked the entire restaurant.
He has money, so he can do whatever he wants. But Jiang Mengmeng is not used to this. Eating requires a lot of people. Now there is no one eating, making it seem as if they are not eating rice, but fairy air.
Jing Muchen didn't think much of it. He just didn't want to be disturbed by others. Besides, isn't it his usual practice to book a restaurant for dinner? He's really used to it. This is his way of life!
"What's wrong?" Jing Muchen asked Jiang Mengmeng when he saw that she suddenly stopped leaving.
Jiang Mengmeng finally came back to her senses. She smiled, then shook her head and continued walking into the restaurant. She didn't say anything, but Jing Muchen could see that she didn't like it here.
Jing Muchen took two quick steps, grabbed Jiang Mengmeng's wrist and took her away without continuing to dine in the restaurant.
"Where are we going? Aren't we going to have dinner?" Jiang Mengmeng looked confused.
"Since you don't like it, let's go to another place. Do you want to go to a place with more people?" Jing Muchen said to the driver, "Go to a place with more people and better food."
Now the driver was confused. He was just a driver, not a food expert or a foodie, so how could he know what kind of place it was? Then, the driver took them to the snack street. This place was cheap and crowded, so everyone liked to come here, so it must be the place.
In front of the snack stall.
Jiang Mengmeng and Jing Muchen sat together, facing each other, and ordered some food, the kind that ordinary people would eat. It tasted good but not necessarily healthy.
Normally Jing Muchen would never eat it, but today, in order to accompany his girlfriend, he sacrificed his stomach.
"Although these things are delicious, you should eat less." Jing Muchen said as he handed them to Jiang Mengmeng.
"Um."
Jiang Mengmeng nodded.
She ate everything Jing Muchen handed her. In fact, it felt good to eat with him. When Jiang Mengmeng looked up, she happened to meet Jing Muchen's eyes.
He was the best man in the world, perfect in every way. But he was too perfect to be trusted, and Jiang Mengmeng didn't want to have those unrealistic dreams.
It’s time to wake up from the dream, even if it has just begun.
Jiang Mengmeng suddenly stopped eating. She put down what she was holding and wiped her mouth with a tissue. Then she looked at Jing Muchen very seriously and gestured to him with her hands.
"Actually, you don't have to be nice to me on purpose." Jiang Mengmeng gestured.
Jing Muchen understood what she meant, but he pretended otherwise.
"If you feel uncomfortable, I can do less and wait until you slowly get used to it." Jing Muchen said.
He has a good temper and will tolerate people he likes and people he truly wants to treat well.
Jiang Mengmeng shook her head. That wasn't what she meant at all.
"What I mean is that you don't have to be nice to me deliberately in the future, and you don't need to do this because of what happened last night. We are all adults, and we can accept whatever happened. I can accept it too, and it's not your fault alone. I am also responsible, and it shouldn't be your responsibility alone." Jiang Mengmeng finished her expression.
She told Jing Muchen clearly that she didn't need him to force himself to be with her because of what happened last night.
Jiang Mengmeng stood up and was about to leave. She would keep her distance from Jing Muchen from now on.
But Jing Muchen would not let her go. Jiang Mengmeng said that she didn't care, but she actually cared in her heart. How could a smart man like Jing Muchen not see that?
He decided to be with Jiang Mengmeng, so naturally he would not let her suffer any injustice in such matters.
Jing Muchen grabbed Jiang Mengmeng's hand and pulled her back.
"I'm asking you, do you like me? Do you have any feelings for me?" Jing Muchen looked at Jiang Mengmeng very seriously: "You must answer seriously. I can tell if you're lying."
