Chapter 105 Why Don't You Wait for Me?
Aunt Rong paused holding the spareribs, glanced at Fang Li, then turned to look at Meng Yuan and said, "Miss Meng, you don't know, there are only two masters here, the master and the mistress, and there are not so many rules between them. The master said that the mistress is hungry, so she can eat first. There is no need to wait for him."
Meng Yuan's expression changed slightly. She glanced at Fang Li and said nothing more. She sat there silently with her eyes lowered.
Aunt Rong ignored her and put the ribs on the plate in front of Fang Li.
Fang Li smiled at her and didn't take Meng Yuan's words to heart. She scooped it up with a spoon and put it to her mouth to taste.
At this moment, there was a slight movement at the entrance, and then Han Xi's mellow voice came from the living room: "Where's the wife?"
"The lady is in the dining room." A servant replied.
Immediately, there was no movement in the living room.
Meng Yuan raised her drooping eyes slightly at this time and looked at Fang Li opposite her.
Fang Li finished a piece of pork ribs and, with sparkling eyes, gave Aunt Rong a thumbs-up and said, "Delicious!"
Neither of them paid any attention to her. Aunt Rong smiled even more happily after receiving the compliment. She picked up another piece of pear with her serving chopsticks and put it on Fang Li's plate: "If it tastes good, eat more!"
Fang Li nodded and ate attentively with a spoon.
The next moment, as steady footsteps stepped into the restaurant, the man's smiling voice rang out softly: "What are you eating? You look so happy?"
The first person to raise his eyelids and look over was Meng Yuan, who was standing right in front of the restaurant door. The man was wearing a well-tailored pair of black trousers and a slightly unbuttoned smoky gray shirt. He rolled up his sleeves as he walked in.
Fang Li held a piece of pork ribs in her mouth and looked back without getting up: "You're back."
"Mr. Han." Meng Yuan clenched her hands a little stiffly, looking at Han Xi with a nervous and slightly awkward look.
Han Xi glanced at her and nodded slightly in response. He then walked straight to Fang Li, holding the back of her chair with one hand and leaning on the edge of the table with the other to look at her: "Did Aunt Rong make this? It looks good."
Fang Li nodded with a puffy mouth: "It's delicious, come sit down and try it."
Han Xi pulled out a chair and sat down next to her. Coincidentally, Meng Yuan was on his right.
As the tall figure sat down, the unique sharp scent of the man, with a faint pine scent, blew towards her face, like a bewitching drug, penetrating into Meng Yuan's nostrils and flowing through her limbs and bones, making her blood boil.
Meng Yuan's pupils flickered, and her hand on her knee suddenly clenched.
She stared at the man beside her, his straight nose, his firm jaw, every part of him was so perfect that it made her fall in love with him.
Meng Yuan held her breath. She felt like her heart was like a wild horse that might jump out of her throat at any moment.
"Miss Meng?"
“…”
"Miss Meng!" Aunt Rong had already put down her chopsticks and brought the last dish of soup from the kitchen to the table. She saw Meng Yuan still looking at Han Xi beside her frequently.
She called out twice with a smile, slightly deepening her tone.
"ah?"
Her abnormality attracted Fang Li's attention.
Meng Yuan's cheeks suddenly felt hot, and she hastily looked away. Her long eyelashes trembled and drooped. She raised her hand with an unnatural look and hooked the hair near Han Xi's ear.
Fang Li saw all her reactions, and her gentle eyes blinked lightly before returning to a cold look.
After a pause, she pursed her red lips and looked at Han Xi beside her.
Han Xi had a blank expression on his face as he stretched out his long arms to help her serve soup. It seemed as if he had not heard Aunt Rong's words at all, nor was he aware of anything unusual.
Fang Li raised the end of her eyebrows, withdrew her gaze and lowered her eyes to continue eating.
Because her right hand was injured and inconvenient for her, Han Xi kept picking up food for her during the meal. Most of the time, she didn't even need to say anything. Han Xi knew what she wanted to eat with just a glance and quickly picked it up for her.
Meng Yuan watched the two of them silently while eating. Seeing that Han Xi was serving Fang Li, his slender brows slightly wrinkled, and he glanced at Fang Li from time to time.
Fang Li didn't notice his presence. She ate comfortably and contentedly. From time to time, she tilted her head and talked to Han Xi about which dishes were delicious and which ones she couldn't get used to.
Meng Yuan's eating movements became slower and slower, and her expression darkened unconsciously.
In her opinion, most wealthy couples treat each other with respect or are distant from each other. They appear to be in harmony with each other outside, but when they return home they are like two slightly familiar strangers, doing everything in moderation.
But the two people in front of her were obviously different from the couples she had seen before.
Is it true love or is it just for show?
Soon, Fang Li was full and put down the spoon.
Only after seeing that she had finished eating did Han Xi start to eat.
Fang Li looked at Han Xi and Meng Yuan across from her, her dark eyes moved, and she suddenly pushed her chair away and stood up, "Han Xi, I'm full and will go upstairs first. Miss Meng, take your time eating."
She nodded at Meng Yuan, and without giving Han Xi a chance to speak, she turned and left the restaurant.
Han Xi watched her leave with a faint expression, then retracted his gaze, finished the last bit of rice in the bowl, and put down his chopsticks.
He picked up the napkin beside him, wiped the corner of his mouth, and stood up: "Miss Meng, enjoy your meal."
After all, he is a bright and visible person, and he is the one who has taken care of Fang Li recently. He can't pretend not to see it, otherwise Han Xi really doesn't want to pay attention to him.
Unexpectedly, Meng Yuan didn't seem to hear the politeness and perfunctory in his tone at all, and actually replied in a familiar tone: "Mr. Han, is this all you want?"
Han Xi just pulled out a chair and looked up at her when he heard that.
Meng Yuan immediately put on a smile that she thought was generous and gentle.
As a result, Han Xi looked away in less than a second, turned around coldly without saying a word, and walked out of the restaurant with his long legs.
The smile on Meng Yuan's lips gradually became stiff, and her face began to turn red from behind her ears, and she felt extremely embarrassed.
upstairs.
Fang Li had just entered the study and turned on the computer when the door handle was gently turned.
She glanced at him and knew what was going on, so she ignored him.
The next moment, the door was pushed open, and it was indeed the man who was still eating when she left.
Fang Li didn't even look up, tapping away on the keyboard with one hand as she replied, "Why are you here? Did you finish eating so quickly?"
I haven't heard a reply for a long time.
Fang Li's eyebrows twitched, and she looked away from the computer screen.
The man stood two steps away from the desk with his hands in his pockets, staring at her with a dim gaze.
“…Why are you looking at me like that?”
Han Xi walked over, walked around the desk and stopped beside her. He took out one hand to support the table, leaned over slightly and stared at her, and opened his mouth: "Why don't you wait for me."
Fang Li's red lips moved and she looked at Han Xi speechlessly.
Han Xi frowned slightly, raised his hand to lift her chin, and lowered his head to kiss her.
"Han Xi."
Fang Li was so frightened that she immediately turned her face away and dodged with her head tilted to the side.
The white earlobe turned red.
Han Xi frowned and stared at the dodging Fang Li with some displeasure, his thin lips tightly pursed.
Fang Li swallowed, raised her left hand and slowly pushed away his chest that was pressing against her.
After they were a little further apart, she turned her head to look at him with her eyes flashing, pursed her lips and said, "I think we two need to have a good talk."
