"I just wanted to make my arm heal faster. It was the head chef who thought he was smart." Mu Yuesheng indifferently replied, her expression the same as always.
"Oh, so it's like that. Then I should thank Head Chef!" Xia Bing Qing was smart enough to catch up. If she couldn't do so, then she would really be embarrassed to death.
"I should thank him." Mu Yuesheng indifferently replied.
Xia Bing Qing stopped talking.
The atmosphere was awkward.
It was as if a bucket of paste had been poured into the air, stirring and not moving at all.
In truth, anyone with a brain would know that Mu Yuesheng was completely lying when she said those words.
How could a head chef take the money from the Mu family to twist his intentions? He thought that if it wasn't for Yue Sen's reminder, he wouldn't have been able to carry it out like that.
Xia Bing understood that this was his command even though she had fallen in love with him!
However, she would not force him to admit it even if he did not admit it.
Wen Zixiu sat next to Mu Yuesheng, doing her best to maintain a smile. Even when the corners of her mouth were stiff and ugly, she would still rather turn into something ridiculous herself.
She hadn't lost yet! She wouldn't lose!
As she neared Mu Yuesheng, she revealed an intimate posture and spoke in a proper tone, "This is a good thing. Even if you personally ordered it, it should be done. Everyone hopes that Bing Qing will recover soon, and it will be the same for me!"
Xia Yun Qing inwardly rolled his eyes.
This scene could only be played out for the elders to see, to let them feel that she understood the general situation.
Mu Yuesheng didn't reply, nor did she show any expression.
It sounded like he didn't hear her, but it also felt like he was ignoring her!
The members of the Mu Clan, who had been watching the farce for two days, felt a little tired. They ordered their stewards to serve the dishes, but no one wanted to interfere.
The dinner was sumptuous.
Xia Bing Qing minded her own business and didn't care about Wen Zixiu and Mu Yuesheng. She didn't even bother to take a glance in that direction.
Xiao Yin's eyes snuck furtive glances at the faces of everyone at the table, eating delicious food as she analyzed the current situation.
Today, the terrifying second young master of the big BOSS was not here, and he was missing a strange black undercurrent. However, Wen Zixiu was even more shameless than him, and even went to curry favor with him after being slapped in the face by the third young master. This showed that she herself knew how low of a position she held in the heart of the third young master, but she was also very smart, and as long as she continued to pester him, the chances of Bing Qing and the third young master being together would be smaller.
Despite knowing that his heart belonged to someone, he still pretended that he was his most beloved person. To put it nicely, it was like bearing the brunt of the humiliation. To put it harshly, it was just looking down on himself.
If one day her Xiuxiu fell in love with someone else, she would give up without a heart. What was the use of driving the shell away? That was the humble and unworthy love of the world.
"Yueshen, eat this!" She affectionately brought all sorts of dishes to Mu Yuesheng's mouth.
Seeing how she was risking her life to curry his favor, Mu Yuesheng paused for a moment before eating the food on her fork. Then, she said, "My hands can move. You don't need to feed them to me."
"I want to feed you." Wen Zixi said tenderly.
"Let's go back after dinner. There's no need to come back here every day." To others, his tone was already considered to be extremely considerate of the other's feelings.
However, the intention to reject was still obvious.
"It's okay, I'm on leave from my dad, so I'm here to accompany you for the next few days!" Wen Zixiu seemed to completely not understand what he meant and was instead becoming more and more anxious.
How could she not know that this kind of one-sided rush to increase her strength was grinding on Mu Yuesheng's tolerance towards her?
Her words frightened the people of the Mu family.
She came to eat dinner twice, and every time she would cause a ruckus. If she stayed a long time, it would be terrible.
"Zixiu, look, you're also a lady from a noble family, a pure and innocent girl. I'm afraid that Boss Wen wouldn't rashly agree to live in my house, right? If there's news that would harm your reputation, how am I supposed to explain this to your parents?" Xin Yuan Chang tried to persuade him with a gentle tone.
She didn't hate this child, but she could tell that her son didn't like her. If he really came to stay, she could clearly say it in the future. Plus, she had business dealings with the Wen family, so she had to be more careful.
"Auntie is right!" Wen Zixiu obediently nodded her head, seemingly having dispelled this thought.
But Xia Bing Qing felt that it wasn't that simple.
Even if he said so, how could he compromise so easily?
His eyes couldn't help but glance towards Mu Yuesheng. He was quite gentle to Wen Zixiu, and perhaps she was betting on this position in his heart that was different from other women.
It was still the same as before, even if he didn't like Wen Zixiu. To her, this difference was like a grain of sand that had fallen into her eyes. The more she rubbed, the hotter she felt.
Anyhow, the road ahead was already pitch black, there was no need to go through all this trouble now.
Mu Yuesheng felt her gaze, and as she looked over, she coincidentally caught her eye.
However, she didn't show anything. She just calmly and powerlessly lowered her head. She was like a kitten that had quietly retreated to a corner, bringing along a faint sadness.
"Bing Qing, I'm done eating. The sky isn't completely dark yet. Take me to the garden to play!" Xiao Yin put down her chopsticks and said lightly.
Xia Bing tilted her head and looked up, "Okay! I'm full anyway! "
Xiao Yin politely said to the elders in the restaurant before pushing Xia Bing out of the restaurant.
In the garden it was dark.
"It's getting dark so quickly!" Xiao Yin was discouraged.
"Yeah, it's still dark!" Xia Bing said with a smile, staring at the last bit of red to the west, her expression became absent-minded.
Xiao Yin rubbed her shoulders. "Don't worry. After a long period of darkness, we'll finally see the beautiful dawn. The most important thing is, don't sink into the darkness before dawn!"
Xia Bing tilted her head and looked at her, "This sounds like a line from a TV show."
"Is that so?" Xiao Yin was furious. "Damn it, to actually copy my wisdom!"
"…" What kind of saying was that.
Xiao Yin waved her hand confidently, "Don't worry about that. In short, you must hold on!"
Xia Bing Qing laughed depressingly: "What can't we withstand? We've already said the cruelest words, so today these don't count for much."
Xiao Yin turned around and walked around on the grass, sighing, "It's nothing, but I can see that you still feel uncomfortable, especially after that woman said she wanted to stay here. Third Young Master didn't refuse, you can see —"
At this point, she stared at a certain place and suddenly stopped talking.
