Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Ning Mengmeng had just picked up a few pieces of sweet and sour pork ribs for herself and was about to pick up some other dishes to her right when she was suddenly blocked by a figure.
Su Zihang’s lips curled into a smile that he thought was exceptionally charming, and his gaze fell on Ning Mengmeng.
Up close, her little face looked even more exquisite. It even made Su Zihang feel his heart beating faster.
This was a feeling he had never felt before.
The first time!
This feeling was because of Ning Mengmeng.
As for Ning Mengmeng…
She didn’t look at the person beside her at all. Instead, she was a little angry because the person beside her was blocking her and she didn’t get to pick up the dish.
She took a deep breath. She was the host, so she had to make do with the guests. She moved a little to the left.
Then, she continued to pick up other dishes.
Throughout the entire process, she completely ignored the person around her.
Su Zihang’s smile froze.
In fact, his expression had turned dark for a moment.
Just as he thought that Ning Mengmeng would see him in a while, she turned around and was about to go to the other food areas. Su Zihang frowned and quickly said, “Mengmeng.”
Hearing the familiar voice, Ning Mengmeng froze. F*ck!
Su Zihang?
But the next moment, she continued walking without hesitation, pretending not to hear anything.
Su Zihang’s face darkened.
Today was a good opportunity to talk to Ning Mengmeng. He could not miss it.
He quickly caught up to Ning Mengmeng and even reached out to grab her arm.
Pei Yuchen stared at Ning Mengmeng’s arm. She was not covered. His gaze was extremely dark.
The boss, who was chatting with him about a certain project, suddenly felt his heart skip a beat. This…
Did he say something wrong? Why did President Pei’s expression look so ugly?
In fact, Pei Yuchen’s appearance here had already shocked everyone.
But no matter what, as long as he appeared, it was a good thing for them!
At the same time, they had changed their opinion of Ning Hexiang. The fact that he could invite President Pei over was enough to prove that he was very capable.
After all… President Pei rarely gave others face!
Looking at Ning Mengmeng again, she only cared about walking faster. With Su Zihang’s pull, the plate that she was holding earlier fell to the ground!
Ning Mengmeng gritted her teeth as she watched the carefully selected ribs fall to the ground. Her ribs!
Ning Mengmeng looked at Su Zihang angrily.
The plate was smashed into pieces, attracting the attention of many people.
Even Ning Hexiang, who was still speaking on stage, was not as attractive as them.
Ning Mengmeng’s heart ached for the ribs and she looked at Su Zihang angrily.
“Can’t you see the plate in my hand? Sir, the most basic etiquette is not to touch directly, but what are you doing now?”
Su Zihang’s smile froze at Ning Mengmeng’s words.
The next moment, his face darkened.
Looking at everyone’s strange eyes, he subconsciously let go of Ning Mengmeng’s arm and forced a gentlemanly smile. “Sorry, I didn’t mean it. I thought we were closer, so I didn’t notice.”
His voice sounded very gentle, and it felt like he was a gentleman.
However…
Why did his words sound so awkward?
If they were familiar with each other, Ning Mengmeng would not have said such unpleasant words, right?
As expected, Ning Mengmeng smiled. “Since when are we close? Sir, first of all, I’m very grateful that you’re here to attend my grandfather’s birthday banquet, but that’s a different matter.. I can’t possibly cooperate with you if you’re pulling me like this, right?”
