In the end, Shen Tingwei couldn’t accept the luxurious kindness with peace of mind. He borrowed a cell phone from his colleague and called Chen Ningxue.
It took a long time for someone on the opposite side to pick up and the tone was not as gentle as when they met yesterday. The slightly faster speed indicated the host’s irritable mood at the moment: “Hello, who is it?”
“…Miss Chen?” Shen Tingwei paused, “Hello, I’m Shen Tingwei who helped you find the necklace at the trampoline park yesterday.”
The other side was quiet for a second and seemed to remember who he was. Her tone became a little softer than before: “Hello. May I ask what’s the matter?”
“I heard from my colleague today that you gave a card…” Shen Tingwei stopped speaking when someone talked on the other end of the phone. The female customer impatiently replied to the person outside the phone and then continued to ask him: “What card?”
“The membership card you applied for us this afternoon is signed by Lian Kangtong.”
Chen Chulian sent servants from time to time to urge Chen Ningxue to go to dinner. Chen Ningxue was so upset that she thought that Tongtong was having a good time and went back to pester Lian Jue to do it but he didn’t care and politely interrupted, “I’m sorry. I have something to do here, if there is a problem with the card, please remind me next time when the child goes to play again.”
“It’s not a card problem…”
Shen Tingwei spoke in a hurry but was interrupted again by Chen Ningxue: “The card is fine.”
“If there is nothing else. I’m going since I am currently busy. Bye.”
“Miss Chen…-”
Chen Ningxue hung up without waiting for the other side to finish speaking. She put away her phone and walked to the restaurant saying, “Come on! You don’t have to keep urging me to have a meal at home. I don’t know why you thought that the United Nations would have to change the Secretary-General. Everyone is there.”
Chen Chulian looked displeased: “Ning Xue, is that how you should talk? After staying out for a few years, why has your manners become lesser and lesser?”
Yu Man greeted Lian Jue and patted Chen Chulian’s arm: “It’s okay. The child is already an adult. Don’t make noise in front of so many people. Just sit down and start dinner.”
Chen Ningxue could see her being so arrogant. She rolled her eyes unabashedly and sat down beside Lian Jue reluctantly.
Chen Chulian was overjoyed after reading Yu Man’s pregnancy test report in the afternoon. The wrinkles at the end of his eyes deepened a few times, so he immediately asked the housekeeper to add more dishes in the evening.
Chen Chulian was in a good mood. The dinner went smoothly. During dinner, Chen Ningxue pulled her face and deliberately messed the tablewares which arouse Chen Chulian’s dissatisfaction.
Chen Chulian put the bird’s nest soup brought by the servant in front of Yu Man. Yu Man smiled and was caught by Chen Ningxue.
“Look how proud she is.” Chen Ningxue poked a knife on the rib on the plate and muttered, “I don’t know, I thought she was carrying a dragon seed.”
Lian Jue brought the red wine to his mouth and took a sip. His expression remained unchanged. He also whispered: “For many people, this is indeed the case.”
“I don’t think I’m treated like a princess at home either.” Chen Ningxue tilted her head and whispered to him, “Do you feel that way, crown prince?”
