CHAPTER 108: CHAPTER 108: FLAUNTING THEIR LOVE IN FRONT OF HER
"Still angry?"
Zhan Hanjue hugged Ningwan, his lips lightly brushing against her brow as he asked in a low voice.
Ningwan sneered, "You’re overthinking it. I’m not angry. Why would I be angry? Weren’t you the one who got angry first?"
Yes, he was the one who got angry first, and he was the one who cared.
She wasn’t angry because she didn’t care.
How ridiculous of him to expect her to be angry?
"I’m not angry anymore, I forgive you." Zhan Hanjue said, seemingly magnanimous.
Ningwan raised an eyebrow.
You think you can forgive just like that?
Am I a little dog?
To be summoned and dismissed at will.
"Fine, you’re not angry, but let go of me first. I’ve booked this room with Taotao for tonight, two girls, it’s not convenient to keep you here." Ningwan pushed him away, stood up, and stepped back.
Her obvious rejection made Zhan Hanjue frown.
"I think she can stay in the room across the hall." Zhan Hanjue continued to persuade.
"That’s why I can’t let her stay in the room across the hall." Ningwan snuffed out his last bit of struggle.
She went out and called Wu Taotao, knocking "bang, bang, bang" to get Wu Taotao out.
As expected, Wu Taotao was visibly unwilling.
"Ningning, did I steal your last bite of food in a past life? Why do you have to trap me like this?"
"If you don’t come out, you’ll be trapping me."
Ningwan pulled her out and asked Zhan Hanjue to leave, then closed the door.
Leng Ziqing looked at Zhan Hanjue, who was driven out, and scoffed, "What goes around comes around. How you treat Linglong is how Ningwan treats you."
"It’s different. She’s my wife. It’s normal for women to have little tantrums." Zhan Hanjue said coldly.
After speaking, he arrogantly walked away.
Leng Ziqing shook his head and closed the door.
The next day, Ningwan and Wu Taotao went out for breakfast.
The hotel offered breakfast, so they certainly couldn’t waste it.
Unexpectedly, they ran into Leng Ziqing in the restaurant.
Someone like Leng Ziqing actually coming out for breakfast was surprising.
Wu Taotao immediately clung to him, "Senior Brother Leng, morning. I initially went to your room to ask you out for breakfast. But there was no response, and I thought you’d already left."
"I brought you here, so of course, I’ll take you back. I’m not so irresponsible as to leave you behind." Leng Ziqing said.
Wu Taotao’s eyes immediately sparkled with admiration, "Senior Brother, I knew you were a good person."
"I’m not a good person, don’t get it wrong." Leng Ziqing said.
Wu Taotao watched him turn around and leave, sticking out her tongue and thinking, I just think you are a good person.
She hurriedly grabbed some food and followed him.
Ningwan was already seated in the restaurant, but soon Zhan Hanjue also arrived.
Even more alarmingly, Li Qingqing showed up too.
Fortunately, the restaurant wasn’t crowded, and most people staying at this hotel were people of status.
Even if someone recognized Li Qingqing, they wouldn’t swarm around her excitedly.
Two young gentlemen tentatively approached to greet her, but her assistant politely declined, and they left courteously.
Li Qingqing sat at the table with Ningwan and Zhan Hanjue.
Soon after, Leng Ziqing and Wu Taotao also joined them.
However, seeing the three of them at one table, Leng Ziqing turned and sat at the table next door.
Wu Taotao naturally went with him, asking as she sat down, "Senior Brother, why not sit together?"
"You dare sit at a table with two women and one man? Aren’t you afraid they’ll start fighting and spill coffee on you?" Leng Ziqing mocked.
Wu Taotao was surprised, "Why would that happen? Ningning has never fought before."
Leng Ziqing remained noncommittal and lowered his head to eat breakfast.
Seeing him silent, Wu Taotao didn’t dare to say more. She lowered her head, eating breakfast while observing what he liked to eat.
"I thought you left yesterday, didn’t expect to see you so early, it’s quite a coincidence." Li Qingqing said with a smile.
Ningwan teased, "You two showed up as soon as I came, anyone who doesn’t know better might think you had people watching me this whole time."
Zhan Hanjue and Li Qingqing’s faces stiffened.
Were they indeed not having people watch her?
Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?
"Just kidding," Ningwan laughed, "don’t take it seriously."
Li Qingqing, who had spent time in showbiz, quickly adjusted and smiled, "Madam Zhan sure knows how to joke. By the way, Mr. Zhan, didn’t you give that necklace to Madam Zhan? She seemed to like it very much yesterday."
"I did, but I don’t want to wear it. It was just a casual comment yesterday. Why did you give me your treasured item? It’s quite embarrassing." Ningwan replied.
Li Qingqing said, "It’s nothing. Mr. Zhan has been kind to me. If he wants to please Madam Zhan, anything Madam Zhan likes that I have, of course, I wouldn’t hesitate to give."
"Miss Li, you’re so good to Hanjue, it moves me." Ningwan said with emotion.
As she spoke, she placed her hand on the back of Zhan Hanjue’s hand.
Zhan Hanjue gave her a sideways glance.
Ningwan smiled brightly at him.
Zhan Hanjue grasped her hand in return, his fingers gently stroking the back of her hand.
Li Qingqing saw their intimate contact, a flicker of emotion passing through her eyes.
But it quickly disappeared as she lowered her head to eat breakfast.
"Hubby, I want to eat from your plate." Ningwan suddenly cooed at Zhan Hanjue.
Zhan Hanjue was taken aback, this was the first time she called him hubby in front of others.
"Help yourself!"
"Feed me." Ningwan said coyly.
Zhan Hanjue picked up the food with his chopsticks and fed it to Ningwan.
Ningwan ate and smiled at him.
Zhan Hanjue smiled back, picking up a napkin to wipe the oil stain from her mouth, pampering her like a child.
What if I dislike it?
He wouldn’t be like his father, letting someone he cares about leave, doing nothing about it.
She could only stay with him. As long as he didn’t let go, she couldn’t leave.
"I’m full. Enjoy your meal." Li Qingqing stood up, smiled, and left.
Ningwan nodded.
Holding hands with Zhan Hanjue, she watched her leave.
As soon as Li Qingqing left, Ningwan let go of his hand and continued to eat breakfast.
"You don’t like Li Qingqing?" Zhan Hanjue asked.
Ningwan sneered, asking in return, "Do you like Feng Jiuzun?"
"They’re different."
"Tell me, how are they different?"
"Li Qingqing doesn’t covet me," Zhan Hanjue said.
Ningwan wanted to crack open his head and see if it was filled with mush.
Or maybe all men were this delusionally self-confident, thinking their assumptions were facts.
However, Ningwan didn’t argue with him. Some things are pointless to argue.
She also didn’t believe Feng Jiuzun genuinely liked her; he just wanted to provoke Zhan Hanjue.
But Zhan Hanjue wouldn’t believe those words. He would still be so angry that he’d ignore her.
Even if she refused all of Feng Jiuzun’s temptations for him.
"After breakfast, I’m heading back. Are you going?" Ningwan asked.
Zhan Hanjue said, "Yes."
She was leaving. What would he stay here for?
