Chapter 979: Riding the Wind and Asking the Moon-Strange (64)
“Since you’ve already agreed to have dinner with me, you should at least smile.”
Chries cut the foie gras while looking at Xu Chengfeng, who was drinking the red wine slowly without eating a single bite.
Xu Chengfeng raised his eyebrows and glanced at her.””It’s already good enough to eat with you. Why do you ask for so much?”
Chries smiled and put down the cutlery in her hands. She whispered,””Don’t think that I can’t tell that you did it on purpose just now. Don’t tell me that your little niece likes you?”
Xu Chengfeng frowned.” Don’t meddle in things that shouldn’t be your business. You shouldn’t talk about such things.””
“Do you think I’m stupid? I’m also a woman. Women can understand women the most.””What I’m curious about now is whether she’s your niece or not. That shouldn’t be the case. If it was her niece, how could she…”
Chries ‘voice suddenly stopped because of the cold glint in Xu Chengfeng’s eyes when he put down the wine glass.
She knew Xu Chengfeng too well. She knew how cold and heartless he could be without batting an eyelid, and she understood his warning even more.
“I, I mean…” ” I think that girl is quite innocent,” Chries explained.” If you two aren’t related by blood, would I be heartbroken?” But if you are related by blood…”
At this point, Chries suddenly realized Xu Chengfeng’s sudden change in attitude when he saw the little girl. He looked at him in shock as if he had discovered something extraordinary, but he did not continue his sentence.
Xu Chengfeng’s gaze landed on her indifferently.””Are you full?”
Chries:”..”
Xu Chengfeng looked at the waiter who was passing by.””The bill, please.”
Chries ‘eyes widened instantly.”Ken, do you have to burn the bridge after crossing it? I was very self-aware to cooperate with you just now.”
Xu Chengfeng glanced at her coldly.””A shield should have the self-awareness of a shield. If you talk too much, you will only be thrown away.”
Chries threw down the cutlery that she had just picked up. When she saw that Xu Chengfeng had already passed the cutlery to the Waiter, she was even more furious. She stood up and wanted to leave, but she knew Xu Chengfeng’s temper. If she really turned around and left, he would not look for her.
He didn’t love her anyway.
Chries suddenly felt that she had been subdued by this man, but he did not even look at her.
When he suddenly agreed to it in the office, he must have noticed that the little girl was outside.
Was he really uncle and niece? Or did he put on the clothes of a relative and take in a young girl?
She looked like a student and was not Xu Chengfeng’s type at all.
He liked women who were knowledgeable, polite, and had the ability to stand shoulder to shoulder with him, not those who looked like young girls.
When she walked out of the restaurant, Chries glanced at Xu Chengfeng. Seeing that he was silent and had no intention of sending her home, she sighed.”Is there really no possibility between us?”
Xu Chengfeng glanced at her indifferently.”
Chries rolled her eyes.”A year ago, I really thought of myself as your girlfriend. That’s why I was jealous of any strange woman who appeared beside you. But I didn’t do anything at that time. I just kept proving that I was your girlfriend in front of others. I didn’t hurt anyone or bully anyone.”
Xu Chengfeng snorted.” I was asking you to stop at the brink of death. Don’t think about me that you shouldn’t have. After all, I can’t give you a response. It’ll only waste our time.””
“So you have the same attitude towards your little niece now? Let her rein in at the brink of the cliff?” ” To be honest, Ken, have you been chased by too many women since you were in your teens? Is that why you’re so good at rejecting women? It’s so sad and hopeless.””
Xu Chengfeng looked at her coldly.” Compared to being heartless, I prefer the latter.””
“What should I do? I seem to love you more and more…” Chries walked to his side and reached out to hold his arm.
However, Xu Chengfeng moved his hand slightly and avoided her hand without batting an eyelid.
She knew this would happen, but she still said with a disappointed expression,””Men change their minds faster than women. Why would I fall for such a heartless man like you back then? I can’t even find a better boyfriend than you now.”
Xu Chengfeng raised his eyebrows.” I don’t seem to be responsible for helping you find a boyfriend.””
Chries smiled, but this time, his smile was full of disappointment.”But Ken, can’t you try it with me? I promise that I won’t be jealous like before. I promise that I won’t deliberately disturb your life again. I…”
However, Xu Chengfeng’s response to her was to raise his hand and hail a taxi. As if he did not hear her, he said calmly,”Get in the car. I’m going back to the company.”
Chries ‘voice paused, unable to say another word. In the end, he could only smile.”Ken, you…”
“Impossible.” Xu Chengfeng glanced at her and signaled her to get into the car.
Chries had no choice but to turn around and open the car door. When he got into the car, he rolled down the window and looked at Xu Chengfeng who was standing outside.
He only had one hand in his trouser pocket and looked at her coldly. There was no disgust, no love, or even a friend. If it were not for her niece today, her dream of having dinner with Xu Chengfeng would not have come true.
The taxi had already left. Xu Chengfeng turned around and hailed another taxi. Seeing that the other taxi was heading in the opposite direction, Chries sighed and took out her phone to make a call.
“Hey, help me find out who the little girl beside Ken is and what her relationship with Ken is.”
“That little girl is about seventeen or eighteen years old. She seems to be Chinese. Judging from her demeanor, she doesn’t come from a small family.”
*****
In the taxi, Xu Chengfeng remained silent. His phone was also very quiet.
When he was about to reach the technology company, he glanced at his phone. It was already 10:30 pm.
She got out of the car and walked into the company. When she returned to the office, she saw that Zuo Yue was nowhere to be seen. It had been a few hours. The little girl should have returned to the villa.
But how could she keep her cool?
After what she had said to him in the car during the day, he had thought that she had started to lose control of her willful emotions and feelings, so she had no choice but to avoid him.
But now, not only did she not call him, she did not even send him a message.
