When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase
Chapter 1012: Su Weiyi, Do You Think I’m Cheap? (2)
After taking a sip of water to ease the awkwardness, Su Weiyi suddenly realized what was wrong.
Her glass...
In a Western restaurant like this, when the waiter initially pours water for you, they don’t fill it, only halfway or even a third.
Yet from a moment ago till now, she had drunk a lot of water, but she hadn’t poured any for herself, so... was it someone beside her?
Su Weiyi pressed her lips together, a burst of inexplicable tension sweeping over her again.
Fortunately, not long after, the waiter came to serve the dishes, temporarily alleviating Su Weiyi’s awkwardness.
Actually, she didn’t even know why, though she had been aware that when she reunited with Sheng Yanxiao, she would be nervous and awkward, she never expected this feeling to be so intense.
That uncontrollable feeling was terrifying.
Su Weiyi forced herself to shift her focus, not to think about why Sheng Yanxiao was refilling her water, not to pay attention to what this person beside her was thinking.
She perked up her ears, focusing on the situation with Si Xia over there.
"Miss Si, I believe it’s very good for two people to be economically independent. In the future when we’re together, I’ll be responsible for the mortgage and utilities, while the living expenses will be by not responsible. I think this is quite fair to us, what does Miss Si think?"
Su Weiyi had heard from Si Xia before that when her mother introduced this man to her, she intentionally emphasized that he had already bought a house in B City. Although Su Weiyi didn’t believe that people had to concern themselves with pre-marital or post-marital assets, it was obvious the other party was calculating, and if she were to not care about anything, she’d be a fool.
Rolling her eyes silently in her heart, Su Weiyi thought that she must never go on a blind date; it’s too easy to encounter a scumbag, refreshing her worldview.
On the other hand, Su Weiyi admired Si Xia a bit, as she could sit with this man for nearly an hour; if it were her, she probably wouldn’t last ten minutes.
Su Weiyi silently ate her food, and in a certain moment, she noticed opposite her, Si Nian suddenly stood up, his face looking bad, then the next second, she saw him quickly walking over.
Su Weiyi turned back hurriedly, seeing a man on that side grabbing Si Xia’s wrist, Si Xia frowning, face full of disgust: "Mr. Zhang, please let go."
"Miss Si, we..."
"Can’t you understand when she says let go?"
Si Nian’s cold voice rang out, Su Weiyi was just dazed for a moment, completely unnoticed what happened over there, now seeing this, she hurried over.
Si Nian had already grabbed that man’s hand fiercely, freeing Si Xia’s wrist from his grasp, and forcefully pushed him away.
The man stepped back two steps, about to crash into Su Weiyi approaching, Su Weiyi instinctively moved to the side, but the aisle was so narrow, she couldn’t dodge.
Just a second before the man was going to crash into her, her arm was grabbed, then she fell into a warm embrace, a light mint scent instantly flooding her nose.
Then she saw Sheng Yanxiao push that man away with one hand, with Su Weiyi in Sheng Yanxiao’s arms, her arm still held in his hand; she could feel that patch of skin was red-hot even through clothes.
Whatever that person’s reaction was, Su Weiyi had no idea; she only knew that this embrace seemed firmer than before, but the familiar scent hadn’t changed at all.
