Could she just watch Ji Yunhuan and Qi Cheng happily grow old together?
No!
She absolutely wasn’t willing.
She used to have no way with Qi Cheng, but now that she had power and influence, why still couldn’t she get what she wanted?
At that mont, a servant walked over, "Madam, there’s a call for you."
"Who’s calling?" Xia Duo frowned, she didn’t want to answer anyone’s call.
"The person said they wanted to speak with you personally." The servant stood by holding the phone patiently, and after a while, Xia Duo stopped and took the phone from the servant’s hand.
"Hello."
"Hello, Ms. Xia, it’s Gao Nian." Assistant Gao’s voice was very polite and courteous, and Xia Duo’s attitude improved a lot upon hearing it was him, "What’s the matter?"
If it wasn’t important, Assistant Gao wouldn’t call her proactively. Moreover, all along, Assistant Gao’s intentions represented Qi Cheng’s intentions; he has always reflected Qi Cheng’s thoughts.
"I was wondering if Ms. Xia has ti to have a al together?"
"Who do you think you are, why should I have dinner with you?" Xia Duo said disdainfully.
"Of course not with ." Assistant Gao laughed lightly, not bothered by Xia Duo’s contemptuous attitude, "I am of low status, I dare not invite Ms. Xia to dinner. The person inviting you to dinner, I think Ms. Xia should know well."
"He’s inviting to dinner?" When Assistant Gao said this, it must be Qi Cheng.
Xia Duo was uncertain, Qi Cheng actually wanted to invite her to dinner?
On Bai Liyan’s wedding day, they ran into each other, and when she spoke to Qi Cheng, he didn’t say anything harsh to Xia Duo but wasn’t enthusiastic either.
Why did he suddenly change his mind?
Assistant Gao didn’t say much, directly left Xia Duo the address, and hung up.
However, this attitude made Xia Duo even more sure that the person inviting her was Qi Cheng, because only Qi Cheng could be so arrogant in front of her.
Not feeling like playing the piano anymore, Xia Duo stood up directly and asked the servant to bring her bag down.
"Madam is going out?"
"What’s the matter, since when do you care about my matters?" Xia Duo looked disdainfully at the little servant.
The servant bowed her head in sha, fearing she had done sothing wrong to offend Xia Duo, "I dare not."
In a good mood, Xia Duo didn’t argue with her, took the bag over, and walked out the door directly.
She went for a beauty treatnt, had her hair done, and dressed up a bit, arriving right on ti at the place agreed with Qi Cheng.
Qi Cheng stood by the window, his back to the entrance, looking at the buildings outside.
The entire restaurant had been booked out, apart from him and the waitstaff, there was no one else there.
He actually arrived earlier than she did, Xia Duo was very surprised. She bit her lip and walked towards Qi Cheng, "What suddenly made you want to invite out for dinner?"
Upon hearing her voice, Qi Cheng turned his head to look at Xia Duo.
Even though Xia Duo was beautifully dressed today, in Qi Cheng’s eyes, she was vulgar and unbearable.
A woman becos what kind of man she follows.
Just like now, although Xia Duo was only two years older than Ji Yunhuan, she looked considerably older.
Xia Duo herself was not aware of these things.
Qi Cheng said, "Sit down."
Xia Duo sat down, surprisingly finding Qi Cheng particularly gentle tonight, she smiled and said, "Didn’t you say before that you hated , why the sudden invitation to dinner?"
"I wanted to apologize for my previous rudeness, isn’t that allowed?" Qi Cheng raised an eyebrow, looking as if it was only natural.
Xia Duo smiled, "Of course, I said you’re always welco to contact ." If it were any other man, Xia Duo wouldn’t have such a good attitude.
But it was Qi Cheng...
People are like this, the more unattainable sothing is, the more they desire it.
Back then, it was Qi Cheng who dumped her, so even after all these years, no matter what Xia Duo had acquired, the person she desired the most was still Qi Cheng.
She always felt that if she didn’t have this man in her grasp, life would never be complete.
Qi Cheng asked gentlemanly, "What would you like to eat?"
Xia Duo looked at his calm deanor, not seeing disdain for her in his eyes, nor did it seem that Qi Cheng rembered past events.
In her view, if Qi Cheng rembered past events, he definitely wouldn’t invite her to dinner, he would hate her as much as before.
After all, Qi Cheng has always been very disgusted by her.
This, Xia Duo still knew.
"You decide." Xia Duo looked at Qi Cheng, "I share the sa taste as you, whatever you like, I like too."
In the past, to please Qi Cheng, Xia Duo always liked whatever Qi Cheng liked to eat.
Even now, she still retained that habit.
Qi Cheng quickly called the waiter over to order, also asking for a bottle of red wine.
Watching this scene, Xia Duo said to Qi Cheng, "You inviting out is really quite a surprise."
"Sothing even more surprising will happen tonight." Qi Cheng mysteriously looked at Xia Duo.
Upon hearing Qi Cheng’s words, Xia Duo’s face imdiately turned red.
Why did it feel like Qi Cheng was hinting at sothing?
When she looked up again at his face, she found he was very serious, not joking at all.
Qi Cheng after amnesia seed like a simple good young man, seeing him like this, Xia Duo couldn’t bear to have wild thoughts in her heart.
Qi Cheng personally poured her wine, a treatnt Xia Duo hadn’t enjoyed before.
She looked at the empty glass in front of Qi Cheng, "Aren’t you drinking?"
"Patients, the doctor told not to drink."
"Then you should take care of your health." Xia Duo sipped her wine.
"Is it good?" Qi Cheng asked curiously looking at her.
Xia Duo nodded, she smiled and asked, "What if I get drunk?"
"What are you afraid of with here?" Qi Cheng glanced at her, "Even if you get drunk, I’ll take care of you. Or do you not trust ?"
Qi Cheng’s eyes were filled with righteousness, Xia Duo smiled, "I trust you, too much, in fact."
Sigh.
She hoped that Qi Cheng would take advantage of her being drunk, but would he?
For a woman like her, would he even touch her!
However, now that he has amnesia, he might not be the sa as before?
To give herself a ’performance’ opportunity in front of Qi Cheng, Xia Duo almost finished half a bottle of red wine by herself.
In fact, she had a good tolerance for alcohol, usually drinking this much wouldn’t get her drunk, but today for so reason, she really felt a bit dizzy.
She held her head and leaned on the table, "I can’t, really drunk, this wine has too strong a kick."
Xia Duo refused.
Qi Cheng looked at her and didn’t force her to drink. Initially, he thought it would be hard to get her to drink more, but who would have thought she would be so cooperative.
When a woman is willing to get drunk in front of a man, everyone knows what she’s thinking.
Qi Cheng, who hadn’t touched a drop of wine, sat beside her calmly, his extre calmness left people at a loss for words.
