Luo Huian was feeling really unamused as she walked up the stairs of the small yet classy restaurant that Qi Yongrui had booked for them.
"Please watch your step on the fifth stair, Miss," the waiter in charge of taking her to the private room, turned and said to her with a flirtatious expression. "It is a bit uneven because of a fight that took place a few days ago."
"If you cannot manage then you can take my hand."
"It’s alright," Luo Huian said to the r. She could see the lustful gaze with which the r was looking at her and didn’t like it in the least. Why did everyone look at her like that?
True she was pretty but there was no need to eye her as if she was an object while at the sa ti trying to take advantage of her.
The waiter seed a bit abashed but when he looked at Luo Huian and her beautiful face, he only felt even more chard. How could a woman as beautiful as her not be arrogant? It was only reasonable for her to be filled with pride and arrogance.
"I understand but if you feel like leaning on sothing, don’t be shy to ask," the waiter said to Luo Huian who nodded feeling slightly exasperated. Did she look like soone who could not even walk?
The waiter took her to the private room and felt a bit annoyed that Luo Huian did not trip even once, if she had then he could have at least gotten a chance to touch her fair hand.
At the sa ti, he couldn’t help but grumble inwardly. In the past, he was always harassed by a woman or two but all of them were average or ugly. This was his first ti seeing a woman as pretty as Luo Huian and yet she did not even touch a strand of his hair.
It was simply so unfair!
Luo Huian had no idea what the waiter was thinking, once she arrived at the private room, she pushed open the door and walked inside.
"Are you really that desperate to get laid?" She asked the r sitting on the chair while reading the nu in his hands. Her lips were curled in a sneer as Luo Huian said, "Even if you are, I am not."
Qi Yongrui calmly placed the nu on the table and raised his head to look at Luo Huian who didn’t even take a seat.
"I only called you here to eat," he told her. "As husband and wife, we need to be close with one another and have a slight understanding even if we are not getting along well."
Luo Huian snorted. "I think we went along well even without having any understanding of one another. You stay in your lane and I will stay in mine. What are you trying to do all of a sudden?"
"The contract is about to—"
"Enough of the contract," Luo Huian placed her hands on the table and splayed her fingers before saying, "There is sothing that you want right? So why not tell ? At least that way we can move past this situation."
Qi Yongrui felt his breath hitch but his expression did not change. He had to admit that his wife had gotten too sharp, he never thought that she would be able to figure out that there was a selfish motive behind his actions.
He clenched his fingers lightly before saying in a low voice, "There is no such thing. I am just making consideration of our future, you and I are the official couple. Our child will inherit the most shares of the Luo family including yours. Shouldn’t I be thinking of the future?"
"If we remain childless then I will have to adopt either Liao Liqin or Fan ilin’s child. I have no intention of doing such a thing when I am capable of having my own child."
"Qi Yongrui…"
"It is just a al," Qi Yongrui interrupted Luo Huian. "I am not asking you to strip your clothes and let do you right here and now, I am just asking you to sit down and have a al. Is it that hard?"
"It is." Luo Huian didn’t even bother to deny it as she looked at the r with a sharp gaze. "I don’t even know what is going on in your head, a husband who had never paid any attention to is suddenly eager to get into my bed and have dates with , no matter how you look at it— its fishy right?"
Qi Yongrui didn’t answer and simply stared at her while Luo Huian looked right back at him without looking away.
Qi Yongrui sighed and remarked, "You are thinking too much. I have no such ideas and even if I did— you are sharp enough to avoid , right?"
"Just have a nice al — I heard that you like crayfish right? The spicy crayfish of this restaurant is really good."
Luo Huian narrowed her eyes as she questioned, "How do you know that I like crayfish?"
"It is you who lost your mory and not ," Qi Yongrui answered calmly. "I rember what you like about it."
’So there is a spy,’ Luo Huian concluded. She was not the original owner which ant that her taste was different from that of her predecessor. Yet Qi Yongrui was claiming that he knew her tastes.
Like hell he did!
Luo Huian thought about it and pursed her lips tightly, she didn’t want to have even a single bite of food with this r.
"How about this?" Qi Yongrui noticed that Luo Huian wasn’t convinced and said to her, "If you have this lunch, I will not bother you for another ten days."
"Twenty."
"Twelve."
"Thirty."
"Fifteen," Qi Yongrui said in a firm tone. "If you sit through this lunch we can stay away for another fifteen days but if you refuse then I will have no choice but to badger you again in the night."
He smiled and added, "I can be quite persuasive if I want."
