“She came to the house before. She must have been planning for a long time. I let down my guard and underestimated her.” Zheng Ziheng laughed. “What does she look like?” Liu Jingxing seemed to recall and said casually, “She’s average. I can only say that she’s not ugly.”

“Aiyo, a woman you don’t call ugly must be a beauty. I still remember when the school beauty pursued you in school. You said that she was too ugly. Is this girl prettier than the school beauty?”

Liu Jingxing glared at him irritably. “Why are you nagging like a woman? Why are you asking so many questions?” Zheng Ziheng smiled and waved his hand. “Alright, I won’t ask anymore. If there’s someone who can tolerate you even with your bad temper, you should treat them well.”

The waiter pushed a dining cart over and placed plates of food on the table. The plating was exquisite, and the food was fresh and tempting. Just looking at it made one’s appetite increase. Zheng Ziheng shut his mouth when he saw the food, and the two of them ate quietly. After eating until they were half full, Zheng Ziheng began to speak again, “I told you before that I have a patient – an old granny – who depends on her granddaughter. Do you remember? She found a matching heart and can undergo surgery at the end of next month. I often saw her granddaughter hiding in the stairwell and crying. When she saw me, she immediately wiped her tears and pretended to be very strong. I hope that the old granny’s surgery will go smoothly. The grandmother and granddaughter are quite pitiful.” He picked up his teacup and drank it in one gulp. Those who didn’t know better would think that he was drinking alcohol.

Liu Jingxing said calmly, “That’s good. Her granddaughter won’t have to hide and cry in the future.” Zheng Ziheng smiled weakly. “I hope everything goes smoothly. I don’t want to see that girl cry in front of me again. She cried so much that I wanted to cry too.”

“Why are you so fussy now?”

“A high and mighty business like you won’t understand our doctors’ sincerity towards the patient. If you were to fall sick in the future, the person who wants you to get better the most might be your attending doctor.” Zheng Ziheng glared at him fiercely and left with his trench coat. Liu Jingxing was almost done eating.

He subconsciously looked at the first floor. The woman did not touch any meat or fish. After finishing the fruit plate, she ate some cucumbers. The woman beside her must be her friend. She picked up a piece of scalded tripe for her. It was still steaming. She hesitated for a moment before picking it up and putting it in her mouth. As expected, the next second, she covered her mouth and retched. The loud sound attracted the attention of many people around her.

She was so stupid. He had never seen such a stupid woman in his life. If she couldn’t eat it, she could just say that she couldn’t eat it. Why was she trying to be strong? If the child in her stomach took after her soft personality in the future, it would be hopeless. Liu Jingxing took a deep breath and walked down in large strides towards the direction where Ming Yue was sitting.

Ming Yue, who had just finished retching, wanted to find a hole to hide in. She had not expected her reaction to be so violent. In the past, she liked to eat tripe. The surrounding customers looked at her, making her blush from head to toe. It was so embarrassing. She really wanted to disappear. More importantly, her stomach was starting to churn again. She still wanted to vomit and holding it back made her eyes turn red.

Tang Tang came back to her senses and quickly came over to hold her arm. “Do you want to vomit? I’ll take you to the bathroom. It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have given you something that smelled so strong. I assumed you could eat it just because I could.” Ming Yue covered her mouth tightly, afraid that she would vomit if she let go. She lowered her head and let the other party drag her towards the bathroom.

After taking a few steps, Tang Tang-jie suddenly stopped. Ming Yue felt her stomach churning and could not hold it in anymore. She was about to ask what was wrong when she heard Tang Tang stutter, “Yue… Yue Yue, that man looks so familiar. I… I think that’s your husband. Oh my god, how can I meet President Liu while dining out? He’s a hundred times more handsome than on television!”

Ming Yue was stunned. She subconsciously raised her head and saw the young master walking over in a white shirt and black suit pants. He walked over with his long legs. His well-defined face and cold facial features made him look like someone she could not afford to offend. The next second, his face appeared in front of the two of them.

His face was dark, and his dark eyes were filled with displeasure. His expression looked like he wanted to eat her. Just as Ming Yue was wondering why he was looking for her, she felt her feet leave the ground and her body rise into the air. The man’s large hand wrapped around her waist and picked her up. She felt even more dizzy and her stomach felt even worse. She subconsciously wanted to open her mouth and vomit.
