Chapter 838: Felt Like a Huge Third Wheel
When it came time to order, Song Ning deliberately picked the most expensive dish. Ning Shu could see An Nuan’s face contort. It was clear that the dish Song Ning had ordered was out of the range that An Nuan could afford.
However, An Nuan insisted on enduring like she would go through sheer hell for the sake of maintaining her face.
Ning Shu ordered a relatively cheap dish. When An Nuan saw that what Ning Shu ordered was much cheaper than Song Ning’s, her expression flickered slightly, then she asked Ning Shu, “CEO, is that all you’re having? Do you want to order a bit more?”
“I’m not hungry,” said Ning Shu mildly. She looked very cold and hard to approach.
An Nuan nodded, then ordered the cheapest dish for herself. After all, she owed five hundred thousand right now. She had made a lot of mental preparation in order to treat the CEO at this sort of place.
When Song Ning saw what Ning Shu did, she leaned over by Ning Shu’s ear and said quietly, “You’re sure considerate, to always be thinking of how to save money for An Nuan.”
Ning Shu’s ear felt ticklish. As Song Ning spoke, her hot and moist breath hit her ear so it tickled.
Song Ning saw Ning Shu’s ear twitch and turn visibly pink, so she burst out laughing. “You’re seriously cute.”
Ning Shu pushed Song Ning away, then undid a couple buttons on her suit. She felt like sweat was starting to cover her back.
As An Nuan watched them interact, she started feeling like she was a huge third wheel.
It was indescribably awkward.
When the steak was brought up, Song Ning pushed the plate in front of Ning Shu. “Help me cut it.”
Ning Shu really wanted to ask, why? Are you crippled?
Song Ning made a pitiful expression as she looked at Ning Shu and extended her slender and fair hand. “Look, I have to organize documents every day, so my hands hurt a lot. I can’t even cut steak now.”
Ning Shu: …
“I’m working for you, so if you have any conscience, you should cut it for me.” Song Ning looked towards Ning Shu with a slight smirk. The current Song Ning was like a naughty child that was misbehaving but also very cute.
The fudge? If she wanted her to cut it, she’ll cut it. Why was this woman trying to flirt with her again? Flirting addict.
Alien that would die if she didn’t flirt.
Ning Shu helped Song Ning cut the steak and Song Ning finally smiled in satisfaction. When she saw that An Nuan was staring at them blankly, she asked mildly, “Could it be that you also want Gong Luo to help cut your steak?”
“No, there’s no need.” An Nuan hastily waved her hand. “There’s no need to go through that trouble, CEO.”
An Nuan thought about things for a moment, then she lifted her wine glass to toast Ning Shu. She said bashfully, “Many thanks, CEO, for lending me five hundred thousand. If it weren’t for you, my younger brother would’ve lost his life. I toast this cup to you, thank you.”
Ning Shu nodded, then lifted her glass to touch it against An Nuan’s. She took a sip, then set it down.
When An Nuan saw how indifferent Ning Shu looked, she was a little intimidated and stopped speaking to just focus on eating the steak.
Meanwhile, written all over Song Ning’s face were the words, ‘I’m not happy, hurry and coax me.’ Ning Shu ignored her and just focused on eating, which made Song Ning feel really wronged, so she kept pouring wine into her mouth.
Ning Shu finally couldn’t take it anymore. “Can’t you drink a little less?”
“I can’t. It’s not like I’m anyone to you, so don’t tell me what to do.” Song Ning pouted unhappily.
Ning Shu frowned helplessly. A woman was acting spoiled towards her. This feeling was seriously strange.
When An Nuan saw this scene, she felt even more awkward. It felt awkward no matter what she did. The two in front of her were engaged and the man was handsome while the woman was beautiful. They were a very good match for each other. They were like an ideal couple that most people could only envy.
But what was this disappointment she was feeling. Could it be…
An Nuan looked towards Ning Shu. Could it be that she had feelings for this ruthless and heartless man?
That wasn’t possible, no way. She didn’t like this kind of man at all! The type she liked was someone who was gentle towards her and doted on her, not this type of man who picked faults about everything.
An Nuan, no matter what, don’t be stupid.
