Forced to Marry Mr. Billionaire-Chapter 999: In the Same Restaurant

When Yin Cui’s birthday was approaching, she called Leng Yan, asking him to make sure to come for dinner on her birthday.

She also told him to bring Xia Nuo if she was coming. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Leng Yan didn’t want the relationship between his mother and Xia Nuo to become more strained, so he asked her if she would go. Xia Nuo naturally wouldn’t go; she wasn’t going to celebrate her birthday for her.

Besides, it was her father’s birthday that day, and she wanted to celebrate it with her father.

Coincidentally, Yin Cui and Xia Yicheng shared the same birthday. Back in university, it was because of celebrating at the same restaurant on their birthday that she met Xia Yicheng, leading to a subsequent unfortunate entanglement.

She didn’t go, and Leng Yan didn’t force her. He even said he would go to his mother’s place first and would quickly come over to celebrate her father’s birthday.

Xia Nuo had booked a restaurant early on, while Yin Cui had booked another restaurant.

On the birthday, Leng Yan originally planned to drive her over, but she refused, not wanting him to make the tiring trip back and forth.

For Xia Yicheng’s birthday, the Xia Family didn’t invite anyone else; just the three of them having a meal and planning to go sing to call it a celebration.

Xia Nuo arrived at the private room, and Mrs. Xia and Mr. Xia were already there.

They didn’t ask why Leng Yan hadn’t come because they knew that today was also Yin Cui’s birthday.

Thinking of Yin Cui made Mrs. Xia uncomfortable.

Their family truly had an unfortunate entanglement with her. When they were young, she had clung to her husband relentlessly. After finally cutting ties, ten years later, she moved across the street from them.

And even though they were neighbors for several years, they never encountered each other, yet managed to let their two children develop feelings for each other, truly making it seem like fate was playing tricks.

If she had known earlier that she was Leng Yan’s mother, she asked herself, would she have chosen to refuse Leng Yan from entering her home?

Leng Yan was truly a good kid.

Mrs. Xia hated Yin Cui, but deep down, she really liked him.

Therefore, she couldn’t really answer such a question. Since it didn’t have an answer, she didn’t think about it further.

On Leng Yan’s end, halfway through his drive, he got a call from Yin Cui saying that the private room they had reserved was taken, so they booked a room at another restaurant.

And that restaurant just happened to be where Xia Nuo and they were.

Leng Yan thought it was convenient to be at the same restaurant, making it easier to celebrate Mr. Xia’s birthday, but he had to remind his mother to avoid a direct confrontation with them.

Mrs. Xia went to the restroom halfway through the meal, and when she returned, her face was visibly upset.

Xia Nuo asked her in confusion, "Mom, what’s wrong?"

Mrs. Xia was disgusted by Yin Cui in the restroom and was holding in her anger, so she didn’t hide anything.

"It’s nothing, just saw someone I didn’t want to see."

The person she least wanted to see, who else but Leng Yan’s mother?

Xia Nuo cautiously asked her, "Is it Leng Yan’s mother?"

Mrs. Xia’s face darkened, and she didn’t answer, which was a tacit confirmation.

Xia Nuo found it very strange. Their reserved room wasn’t at this restaurant, so why was Leng Yan’s mother here?

She took out her phone and sent Leng Yan a message asking where he was.

The reply came quickly, and indeed, he was at this restaurant, but he explained that the originally reserved place was full, so they came here instead.

Xia Nuo, halfway through eating, also needed to go to the restroom.

The private rooms here weren’t big, separated by simple thin partitions, and there were many private rooms.

Xia Nuo glanced at the row after row of private rooms and continued walking toward the restroom.
