My Toxic Ex-Wife: BOSS, Stay Away!
Chapter 343 - 347: My Relationship with President Leng is More Than Just Acquaintances
CHAPTER 343: CHAPTER 347: MY RELATIONSHIP WITH PRESIDENT LENG IS MORE THAN JUST ACQUAINTANCES
The two of them exchanged words, but their hands did not move away. Clearly, both of them had smiles in their eyes and seemed to be having a pleasant conversation, yet the air gradually became thick with tension.
The atmosphere became subtle; everyone present, except Mu Yi, sensed it, but no one pointed it out. Fei Yichen, who had been sitting on the sofa the whole time, did not intend to intervene either. It seemed he was watching with amusement, expecting a good show to unfold.
"Do you two know each other?" Mu Yi asked with a smile.
Ouyang Hao smiled meaningfully, "It’s more than just knowing each other between President Leng and me; we go way back."
"That works out perfectly. I was worried that new acquaintances might feel awkward. Now that you two know each other well, everything can be discussed easily. Hungry? Shall we go eat?"
Fei Yichen looked at Mu Yi affectionately, his heart sighing with emotion. At such times, only his innocent and kind-hearted little wife could keep things under control.
Sure enough, the interruption eased the tension a bit. Led by the maid, the group entered the dining room and took their seats. As hosts, Fei Yichen and Mu Yi sat at the head and foot of the rectangular table, while Leng Yixiu and Lin Yixun sat on the left side, and Ouyang Hao and Li Yun’er on the right side.
Whether it was a coincidence or not, Ouyang Hao sat directly opposite Lin Yixun, so whenever she looked up, she would see him.
From the moment she sat down, she didn’t lift her head. To be precise, she didn’t dare to. She didn’t even have the courage to take a proper look at Ouyang Hao, fearing she would still see nothing but coldness and indifference.
At the dining table, Lin Yixun kept her head down, just wanting to quickly finish the steak on her plate and leave as soon as possible. However, Leng Yixiu did not want to let her have her way.
"You’re too thin, eat more." Leng Yixiu pushed the cut steak in front of Lin Yixun, swapped her plate, and then leisurely cut more pieces for her.
The man’s actions did not go unnoticed by the others. Seeing this, Mu Yi couldn’t help but complain to Fei Yichen, "Look at how considerate President Leng is, afraid that Yixun is too thin, he even cuts the steak for her. Why don’t I get such treatment after marrying you?"
"Don’t I? I even personally bathed you last night!"
Hearing this, Mu Yi’s face turned red, and she slapped Fei Yichen on the shoulder, "You’re too much, talking about this over dinner with so many people around. It’s so embarrassing."
"President Fei and Mrs. Fei are truly enviable, being so in love," Ouyang Hao suddenly spoke up, turning to Li Yun’er next to him with a playful tone, "How about you let me enjoy such benefits sometime?"
"Dream on!" Li Yun’er rolled her eyes at him, "They are a legitimate couple, what are we? Partners in crime?"
"Partners in crime? No matter what, I’m still your official boyfriend."
Although Ouyang Hao and Li Yun’er were bickering, in Lin Yixun’s eyes, it was showing off their affection. She lowered her head and ate the steak silently, finding it hard to swallow, and for some reason, her throat felt bitter.
The more bitter her throat felt, the faster Lin Yixun ate. She barely chewed and swallowed the steak nearly whole. Soon, she finished a large plate of steak.
"I’m done. Enjoy your meal."
"You’re done so quickly, was the food not to your taste?" asked the hostess.
"No, no, it was very delicious. You all enjoy." With that, Lin Yixun stood up from her seat.
