"Is it good?"
Seeing him pick up his chopsticks, Ye Ning, who had been waiting there, immediately asked nervously.
Is it good?
Honestly, it wasn’t that good, the meat was really tough, and there wasn’t enough salt, so overall it tasted pretty bland.
But, considering the fact she cooked it herself...
He responded with a flat "Hmm": "I can still eat it..."
Ye Ning: "..."
Such a blow!
Would it kill you to say something nice? Do you have to be so blunt?
Not wanting to look at him anymore, she picked up her chopsticks and started eating herself. Meanwhile, their son beside them, having grown up eating her level of cooking, was munching away, blissfully unaware of how delicious it was.
After about ten minutes, Ye Ning had finally worked up enough courage. Sitting across from him, she finally mustered up the nerve: "Um, honey, I want to tell you something."
"Hmm..."
The man sitting there eating absentmindedly, responded with a flat "Hmm."
Ye Ning saw this and didn’t know why, but her heart started to race a little. She gave herself a pep talk in her mind before saying, "Do you know about the Ou Family’s Longfeng sale?"
"That’s no longer my business..."
"Oh right, right, I forgot, it’s no longer your Ou Family now. Anyway, the Ou Family is planning to sell Longfeng these days, and a client I communicated with is really interested in purchasing it."
"And then?"
"And then... they want me to be their Treasure Appraiser, so you see..."
"Treasure Appraiser?"
The man, who had been listening with a blank expression, upon hearing these words, finally lifted his gaze, looking at her with deep eyes: "Is the salary high?"
"Huh?" Ye Ning could hardly believe her ears: "You... what did you say?"
"I said, if the salary is too low, don’t go, after all, you have to support the family now, support me. Oh, I forgot to tell you, the bicycle I bought today was over seventy thousand, and in a couple of days, I’m planning to go fishing with Chengzhi. You’ll probably need to prepare a few more ten-thousand for me. See what you can do."
"..."
Sitting there, she just held the bowl in her hands, staring at this man for at least a few dozen seconds before her senses gradually returned.
So this jerk is only concerned about whether there’s money? Whether there’s enough to support him? Whether there’s enough for him to spend, right?
How can he be like this? He doesn’t care about her at all!
Ye Ning, who was initially worried about him disagreeing, suddenly felt uncomfortable after hearing these words, feeling like she was being neglected. She put the bowl down on the table, her mouth forming a pout: "Why do you only know about money now? Can’t you be concerned about other things?"
"Other things?"
The man, who had been looking down, eating, finally placed his gaze on her face upon hearing this: "What do you mean?"
"It’s just... it’s just..."
Ye Ning initially wanted to say, like being concerned about whether if she went to Longfeng, would it further provoke that old man and bring her unnecessary trouble.
Also, if she went to Longfeng, now that the whole city knows that the marginalization of the third son of the Ou Family was because of her, the so-called "vixen," if they also knew she was involved in the sale of Longfeng, wouldn’t he bear even more infamy?
Ye Ning wanted to say a lot, but when she was about to, seeing this man who now had no halo and was dining with her in such a dilapidated courtyard, she couldn’t bring herself to say anything.
