The MPV stopped below the Macau tower.
Manager Xu had ordered the restaurant above. Not only could he have a meal, he could also take a look at the night scenery of the city. Clearly, he had spent a lot of time and effort.
The tower is said to be 338 meters high, the eighth highest in Asia, the tenth highest in the world and taller than the Eiffel Tower in Paris, with views of the Zhuhai Sea and parts of Hong Kong off the island.
Lin Wan Bai looked out. The night was beautiful indeed, but she was not in the mood to admire it.
The black table was covered with a white cloth. The goblets were crystal clear, and the plates were also shining brightly.
Manager Xu displayed the aura of a underground lord. After putting down his bag, he said with a smile, "This is a self-service restaurant, how about we go get some food first?"
"Yes." Huo Chang Yuan bit his lips.
Lin Wan Bai, who had just sat down, heard what was said and had no choice but to rise as well.
The dinner served Portuguese and Indian cuisine, rich and fresh seafood, as well as some dishes that were ready to be cooked. Looking around, it was a sight to behold, Lin Wan Bai was silently holding a plate at the back.
In front of him were two people standing side by side. Huo Chang Yuan's figure was tall and big, and Manager Xu was tall and straight.
Along the way, the conversation between the two never stopped.
Most of the talk was about work, about things she didn't understand, and even if she did, it wasn't her place to interrupt.
Lin Wan Bai clenched the folder tightly, his chest feeling even more stuffy.
It was as if she was venting her anger as she forcefully jabbed at the baring teeth and brandishing claws of the crabs on the ice. However, it was as if she was going against them.
So angry!
Just as Lin Wan Bai was about to give up, a huge red crab appeared on his plate.
She raised her head, meeting Huo Chang Yuan's pair of deep eyes, and looked at her with a smile that was not a smile.
Lin Wan Bai turned his face away, and planned to head towards the pastry area in front of them.
As she passed him, the hard features suddenly bent over her, the protruding Adam's apple bobbing slightly.
"You're allowed to be jealous."
"…" Her footsteps paused.
As the corners of his mouth lifted, he heard him whisper in his ear, "But don't knock the vinegar out of the pot!"
"I didn't …" Lin Wan Bai retorted.
However, even though she said that, a small voice in her heart was rebutting her.
After picking up the dishes, the three of them returned to their seats. Although it was a 360 degree restaurant, the speed at which it was rotating was very slow.
Manager Xu and Huo Chang Yuan were still conversing with each other, but suddenly felt warm on their knees.
Lin Wan Bai lowered his head and indeed, he saw Yue Yang's large palm coming his way.
The thick palm was firmly clasped on her right knee, unconsciously tightening, rubbing the cloth between her fingers.
She did not struggle free. She was afraid of making too much noise, so she had to give up.
She looked up again and saw that he was still chatting seriously with Manager Xu, as if the hand that was provoking her under the table wasn't him. This wasn't the first time, but it was different.
Moreover, it seemed as if he had said something. A low laugh escaped, but the corner of his eyes glanced in her direction. Lin Wan Bai was sure that he was definitely laughing at her.
What was there to laugh about!
Lin Wan Bai vented all the suffocating feelings in his stomach onto the crab on his plate and started to dismember it with his knife and fork.
When he was eating, Huo Chang Yuan suddenly stood up, "I'm going to pick up a call."
After saying that, he took his phone and left.
Manager Xu seemed to be an astute person, he did not make any awkward remarks, and took the initiative to ask her: "The seafood here are all good, I think Miss Lin likes crab?"
"Uh, it tastes pretty good …" Lin Wan Bai's answer was somewhat against his will.
"My son also likes to eat crabs here. Every week, he would clamor for me to bring him here!"
"Manager Xu already has a child?" Lin Wan Bai was startled.
"That's right. He's in kindergarten this year, and the boys are especially mischievous. The babysitters that were invited can't stand watching him!" Manager Xu smiled and nodded. Then, he asked again: "Miss Lin is Hutong's girlfriend, right?"
"Mm …" Lin Wan Bai gently nodded his head.
He didn't understand what the other party was thinking.
"Then my meal is the right one!" Manager Xu smiled and put his hands together.
"Although Hutong and I have been discussing work, the main reason is still to thank him! I participated in last night's meal as well, but who would have thought that I would run into my ex-husband. He was paranoid, and constantly pestered me during these two years of divorce. In order to make my ex-husband give up, I went along with the flow and made a scene with Hutong! "
"But don't worry, we are just pretending. We didn't do anything out of line, I just kissed on the collar of Hutong's shirt. After all, you're his girlfriend. I think that since we're both women, I should still talk to you about it. "
"Ah …" Lin Wan Bai was stunned.
"Miss Lin, don't mind it!"
"I don't know how to …"
Lin Wan Bai regained his senses and quickly shook his head to express his thoughts.
When she saw the lip gloss on her shirt, she felt very uncomfortable. In fact, she hadn't slept well last night, and her mind was filled with many scenes.
In the past, when he was at the Club in the Underground World, it was normal for Huo Chang Yuan to go in and out often. He had also seen girls by his side before, but he barely touched them. However, the sudden appearance of the lip gloss caused her to worry about her personal gains and losses. Or perhaps, the man had an inferior personality. She even doubted if she should come here and imagined a woman sitting on his leg to be intimate with him …
Even if it was a play, she still felt uncomfortable.
But now that he knew the source, all of Lin Wan Bai's depression was gone.
So, it turned out to be a mistake …
After the meal, the black coloured MPV had been parked in front of the hotel.
There weren't many people in the elevator, and when they reached the tenth floor, there were only the two of them.
Thinking about Manager Xu's words, Lin Wan Bai looked at the man standing beside him. He could not help but take a small step forward and reached out to grab his hand, then held it tightly.
Just like when he was eating, he also rubbed the underside of his finger gently.
Huo Chang Yuan glanced over with his deep eyes, then said with a suppressed voice: "Your relatives are here, don't bother with me, do you hear me?!"
"Huo Chang Yuan, actually …"
Lin Wan Bai licked his lips, seeing that his eyebrows were slightly raised, waiting for her to finish speaking, he swallowed his saliva and slowly said, "I have something to tell you!"
"What is it?" Huo Chang Yuan bit his lips.
Lin Wan Bai's eyelashes drooped, then she stood on her tiptoes and whispered something into his ear.
Huo Chang Yuan quickly tightened his black hair.
Then, his waist suddenly tightened.
Lin Wan Bai was grabbed by him into his embrace, and very vigorously folded his arms. He looked at her with a gaze that seemed to be able to eat a person, "You dare lie to me!"
