The entire room fell silent.
Su Yanbing was so shocked he nearly dropped his chopsticks.
Everyone watched Si Zhengting give Zhuang Nainai a cold glance. No one caught the fixed emotions in that look under its chilling glint.
Mr. Si.
Hpmh. She now addressed him as Mr. Si.
Si Zhengting did not comprehend the feeling now erupting within him. It was dull and suffocating; it made him annoyed with her.
“It’s alright. If Mr. Si likes prawns, Xiao’ai will get you one more!” Boss Huang piped in and threw a look at Huang Xiao’ai.
Huang Xiao’ai showed a flattered expression and picked up another prawn. She s.h.i.+fted her weight while putting the prawn onto his plate and planted herself in the chair on Si Zhengting’s immediate right. “Mr. Si, try this, our club’s celery prawn is very tasty.”
She raised her head and glanced at Zhuang Nainai.
What an insignificant being!
Mr. Si ate her prawns and rejected Zhuang Nainai’s water. It showed that Mr. Si liked her!
Huang Xiao’ai was exhilarated.
Zhuang Nainai was stunned. Her lips were slightly parted and she forgot to chew.
He liked prawns?
Five years ago, he simply abhorred them. Why did he like them now?
She looked at him with incredulity. Si Zhengting kept quiet, picked up the prawn in his chopsticks, and… ate them!
Zhuang Nainai lowered her head, a bitter smile forming on her lips.
That’s right, five years was sufficient to change one’s preferences.
But this is not the time to get emotional! Zhuang Nainai fought against her displeasures and looked up again. She recomposed herself and smiled at the pair.
Isn’t it just serving food?
She could do that!
Zhuang Nainai was about to reach out and offer Si Zhengting another prawn when her elbow was caught by someone.
Zhuang Nainai turned and saw Boss Huang look at her with l.u.s.t in his eyes. “Miss, do you work here? What do you do? Tell me about it.”
Boss Huang held onto Zhuang Nainai’s hands while speaking and stroked her skin.
…
“What good skin you have!”
Boss Huang and his daughter both believed Su Yanbing’s words and did not take her for someone important.
Boss Huang mused to himself that Si Zhengting must have seen much to pa.s.s on such rare beauty. He would gladly take her and make her a mistress.
Having witnessed all these interactions from across the table, Su Yanbing looked in Si Zhengting’s direction. Just as he predicted, Si Zhengting’s gaze rested on Boss Huang’s wandering hand.
Su Yanbing believed that if stares were tangible, Boss Huang’s hands would have ended up shredded.
Si Zhengting slowly put down his chopsticks. Just as he was about to do something, Zhuang Nainai stood abruptly and sent Boss Huang’s hands flying.
Zhuang Nainai felt gooseb.u.mps all over her body.
It’s so gross to get molested by an old man!
“What are you doing!”
Before she could rage, Huang Xiao’ai opened her mouth first.
