C26 Eat Together

Ning Qianyu's body stiffened as she turned around then sat back down beside Ning Shujun's bed.

"Qianyu, are you sure you want be with him for the rest of your life?" Ning Shujun glared at her daughter.

For the rest of her life? Who could say so? Mu Jinbo swore that he would love her forever, but what happened in the end? As for Mu Shengchen, the agreement clearly stated that only he had the right to end the contractual marriage, and she had no right to end it. Ning Qianyu suddenly felt sadness surge up from the bottom of her heart. However, she did not have the time to think about this for now.

Ning Qianyu said guiltily, "Mom, what are you talking about? Of course I want to spend the rest of my life with him."

Ning Shujun sighed and said, "Since you've decided, I'll respect your decision. But remember, no matter what happens, mom will always be on your side."

"Mom!" Ning Qianyu threw herself into Ning Shujun's arms with tears in her eyes.

Ning Shujun caressed her daughter's hair as she embraced her tightly…

Around 11:30 am, Ye Xi called to informed Ning Qianyu that he had arrived and was waiting for her at the entrance of the hospital.

After getting in the car, Ning Qianyu noticed that Ye Xi was not driving in the direction of the apartment, but towards the center of the city.

"Ye Xi, aren't we going back?"

"Miss Ning, Young Master Chen is waiting for you at Hilton," Ye Xi, who was in the driver's seat, turned around and glanced at Ning Qianyu as he replied with a smile.

"Why is he waiting for me? I should go back to cook lunch instead…" Ning Qianyu muttered to herself as she rummaged through her bag.

There was not much money left with her, her hands were still recovering, and her doctor's license had been revoked. It seemed like it was time for her to find a new job. Ning Qianyu's eyes sunk when she remembered the revocation of her doctor's license.

Ye Xi smiled but did not reply to her. He just sent Ning Qianyu to the entrance of the city's largest Hilton French restaurant, turned around, and said to Ning Qianyu, "Miss Ning, Young Master Chen is waiting for you in room No. 1."

"Aren't you going in?" Ning Qianyu glanced at the entrance of the French restaurant. Were they going to have their lunch here?

Ye Xi said awkwardly, "I still need to hold a meeting on behalf of Young Master Chen. I'll get someone to come and pick you guys up later."

"It's fine. Go to do whatever you need to do. There's no need for anyone to pick us up. Just leave everything to me," Ning Qianyu nodded and opened the door to get out of the car.

Ye Xi only drove away after seeing Ning Qianyu walked into the restaurant.

As soon as Ning Qianyu walked into the restaurant, the waiter came to welcome her. Everyone who worked in such a high-end luxurious restaurant had a good insight. Although Ning Qianyu was dressed embarrassedly, it was obvious that the gown worth a lot of money. Furthermore, the coat she was wearing was even more costly, so no one dared to neglect her.

Ning Qianyu politely said to the waiter, "Please take me to room No. 1."

"Alright," The waiter led the way for Ning Qianyu.

In the end, the waiter stopped in front of a room, "Miss, this is room number 1," The waiter knocked, then opened the door. Ning Qianyu saw Mu Shengchen sitting in the room right away with a dim light shone on him, giving off a gloomy feeling.

Only then did Mu Shengchen lifted his head, "You're here," Ning Qianyu then walked into the room with a smile, and the waiter immediately handed her the menu.

Mu Shengchen said to Ning Qianyu, "Order anything you'd like to eat."

The moment Ning Qianyu opened the menu, all she saw were French words. Ning Qianyu was a graduate of the Medical University but was defeated by the name of the French dishes and the only thing she could understand was the price. Looking at all of their overpriced dishes, Ning Qianyu gulped her saliva and peeked at Mu Shengchen.

"What's wrong?" Mu Shengchen raised his eyebrows.

"It's nothing," Ning Qianyu replied with an awkward smile.

"Allow me," Seemingly noticing Ning Qianyu's awkwardness, Mu Shengchen opened the menu and read softly, "Would you like to have a serving of steak?" He looked towards Ning Qianyu.

Ning Qianyu frowned, before she could express her opinion, she heard Mu Shengchen say, "Baked snails taste pretty good too. Females like them. Do you want to give it a try?"

Snail? Ning Qianyu nodded.

"I'd like to have a serving of baked snails, French crispy goose liver with rare fungus, and a Ceasar salad with caviar. Red wine or champagne?" Mu Shengchen asked Ning Qianyu.

"I don't usually drink alcohol," Ning Qianyu put an awkward smile on her face. As a surgeon, she had always been restraining herself from drinking alcohol. She did not eat western food, did not go to any luxurious restaurants, and they always dated in that old apartment, no wonder Mu Jinbo said she was stubborn and boring.

Ning Qianyu felt slightly bitter in her heart when she thought of Mu Jinbo.

After the waiter left, only the two of them were left in the room. It seemed like Mu Shengchen had felt Ning Qianyu's sadness, therefore, he remained silent. His handsome face gazed at the wall lights but his eyes were filled with gentleness instead of coldness.

After a short while, the waiter came in to serve them their dishes. Ning Qianyu gave her food a taste, realizing that it was not too bad and did not have the strange taste that she had expected. Those small black granules were more to her liking.

On the other side, seeing that Ning Qianyu was enjoying her meal, Mu Shengchen lifted the corner of his mouth and smirked.

After a]the pleasant meal, Mu Shengchen got up while controlling his wheelchair.

"Are you leaving?" Ning Qianyu immediately put down her knife and fork and stood up.

Mu Shengchen said plainly, "I'll go to the washroom, you continue."

"I'll push you over," Ning Qianyu wiped her lips and pushed Mu Shengchen into the washroom in the private room.

The bathroom was very spacious, but it was not as convenient as the one at home that was specially made for Mu Shengchen.

"You may leave. I can do it myself," Mu Shengchen said plainly.

"Let me help you," Ning Qianyu's face was slightly blushing.

Mu Shengchen did not refuse. Then, she supported his body by holding his shoulder, turned away her head, and grabbed his waist from behind, hearing him unbuckle his belt, and then the zipper...

Phew! Why are you blushing, Ning Qianyu? He is your husband, your husband! Ning Qianyu kept telling herself.

Suddenly, Mu Shengchen's voice sounded from above, "I can't even take care of myself, don't you think it's annoying?"

"Uh?" Ning Qianyu came back to her senses and after a while, finally understood what Mu Shengchen meant. She lifted her head and gazed into Mu Shengchen's eyes, "No, you're good. You've never been displeasing."

Mu Shengchen's face was getting closer and closer to hers. Ning Qianyu could guess what he was going to do, she hesitated yet did not push him away.

He then kissed her on the lips, and his body pressed against hers. This was not a good place for making out but they had forgotten.
