C8 (1/2)

The girl who had just bathed smelled of bath milk, and the fragrance was overwhelming.

The man's nose moved slightly. The position of reading the newspaper remained unchanged.

The butler bowed and reminded him, ”Sir, Miss Shen is already here.”

”Oh, let's start the meal.”

The newspaper was handed to the butler and the man looked straight ahead.

Shen Liangxia thought about the previous matter and felt that regardless of the reason, the other person had helped her a lot. Moreover, he didn't know much about her family's situation so she should apologize.

Just as he opened his mouth to speak, the man had already turned his face to the side to look at the butler. ”Do you still have that side dish from yesterday? Go get it.”

After so many times, whenever Shen Liangxia wanted to speak, the man would always have something to say. After being ordered by him several times, Shen Liangxia no longer spoke.

She was not stupid, as she would definitely see the expression on her face. It was obvious that she did not want to be bothered with him. She had a good face, so she ate quietly without lifting her head.

The man's gaze lingered on the top of her head for a while. He felt that the salty melon was especially salty today. How much did she want to avoid getting involved with him? She couldn't even sit there for a while.

Suddenly, an urge to kick the table arose in Xiao Chang Li's heart.

It was a quiet meal, and both of them were silent.

The steward stood quietly by the side, feeling that the silence of the day was much more oppressive than the silence of the past.

After the meal, Shen Liang Xia Ji said in a low voice, ”I'm done eating.” He put down his chopsticks, stood up and went upstairs.

The girl's footsteps were light.

The man impatiently threw down the chopsticks in his hand and stopped eating the remaining half bowl of porridge.

He stood up, took the suit and jacket from the butler and went straight to the company.

He didn't want to say even one more word.

What was this?

He was thirty-two years old and had been through a lot. If he walked out now, who wouldn't have to respectfully call him Mister Xiao?

Why did he have so many emotions that he shouldn't have for a little girl?

It was really too ridiculous.

She was just a little girl.

At most, he would look a little better than others. However, he was also pleasing to the eye, causing a bit of heartache. What else was there?

No tutoring, no manners. Meng Lang was just a frivolous delinquent.

What's the big deal?

What's the big deal?

What's the big deal?

There was nothing extraordinary about it.

He had already broken some of his principles because of her. What else do you want?

Counting this time, it was only the third time they had met.

As for why?

You are a mature man of thirty-two years old and a twenty year old girl. Once today's matter is over, the two of them will not have anything to do with each other anymore. What was there to say about this?

Lying on the luxurious bed, staring at the luxurious crystal lamp hanging above her head, Shen Liangxia felt that she should be more conflicted about whether this crystal lamp would suddenly fall down and smash onto her body while she was sleeping rather than that icy uncle.

Actually, she had already said that she had nothing to do with the 'matter of being entrusted with loyalty'. She was just entrusting the matter to someone with his status. After today, the two of them would not interact any longer.

Naturally, her apology wasn't that important.

At most, they would greet her when they met again in the future. It was even possible that they wouldn't even give her a chance to greet them. After all, her status wasn't even on the level of an official.

Three days ago, Xiao Bu Dian was only a legendary person to her.

Xiao Bu Dian returned before lunch. At that time, the little evildoer had just woken up.

He was forced by the butler to eat lunch and was sitting on the sofa yawning sleepily.

When he saw the man enter, he called out ”Uncle Xiao” in a hoarse voice, but he still hadn't completely woken up.

He walked to the table and sat down until it was time to eat.

Only after eating two mouthfuls of sour and spicy cold dishes did he fully awaken from his stupor.

He looked at the man sitting in the main seat in surprise: ”Uncle Xiao, you're back.”

”…”

She was just saying hello to the air, wasn't she?

Shen Liangxia raked her hair and realized that she must have looked like an idiot. She then stuck out her tongue and started to eat quietly.

Although Xiao Bu Dian looked like he was eating heartily, he was actually focusing on the girl's face from the corner of his eyes.

Slowly, his attention was completely diverted. In the dense white carp soup, it seemed that at any time, one could see a faint pink color.

The Adam's apple slid a little, and for the first time the man who never drank water at meals asked the butler to pour him a glass of ice water.

He drank the ice water directly, and the adam's apple that was sliding up and down emitted a cold toughness, as if no one was allowed to enter.

Silently shrinking her shoulders, the girl decided to lower her presence.

He didn't dare to stretch his chopsticks too far and could only eat the dishes in front of him.
