Chapter 56 Candlelit DinnerAfter Xiao Bing had his breakfast alone, he went to work in the noodle house . The best choice for the expansion was to directly build it based on the original structure . If Xiao Bing had insisted, he could have acquired the transfer contract last night .
Su Xiaoxiao came over while she was having a lunch break . Xiao Bing thought she was still angry . But to his surprise, she seemed to be tepid as usual . She still talked to him . It turned out that she planned to have lunch here with her friends . But there were too many people, so she left soon after .
Xiao Bing was less busy till 2 pm and finally there were a few empty tables . Everyone could take a short break .
Zhu Liya appeared at the door, which did not surprise Xiao Bing . He just helped her today, so it was reasonable for her to come here to say thanks to him .
She was wearing a s.e.xy black lace dress, black silk stockings and high heels, which made her look like a seductive but n.o.ble queen .
As soon as she walked in, she got quite a lot of attention . Li Hong and Zhang Jing even whispered, "Humph, what a wh.o.r.e . "
Some women were beautiful in a friendly way . But it was not the same with Zhu Liya . Her s.e.xiness and beauty easily made other women hostile to her .
Seemingly accustomed to it, Zhu Liya ignored these men"s ogling eyes and walked up to Xiao Bing . "Thanks for helping me last night . Can I invite you to have dinner at my home tonight?"
Li Hong and Zhang Jing were eavesdropping . Dumba.s.s just walked out of the kitchen and suddenly he shouted, "Jesus, you two are dating behind Yezi . . . "
Xiao Bing raised his leg and kicked him back . Dumba.s.s rolled on the ground for a few seconds and murmured after he stood up, "My mother said it"s adultery when a man is dating another woman behind his wife"s back . . . "
Xiao Bing laughed, "This whelp . . . Mrs . Zhu, I hope you don"t mind . "
"It"s okay . If your girlfriend will misunderstand, then just forget it . "
"No, she won"t . She"s a reasonable person . " Xiao Bing contemplated for a while and smiled, "Your invitation is accepted . I remember where you live . When should I arrive?"
"Whenever you deem appropriate . "
"How about 5?"
"Good . Since you"re busy, I"ll leave first then . " Zhu Liya turned around and walked out slowly . Many male customers" eyes followed her but finally they had to draw back their sights .
Zhang Jing snorted, "Brother Bing, how can you blame Dumba.s.s for saying something right . He was speaking the truth . She looks exactly like a wh.o.r.e . "
"Yeah!" Li Hong asked curiously . "Isn"t she the new owner of the building next to our noodle house? Brother Bing, you have already hooked up with her?"
Xiao Bing cleared his throat, "Choose your words carefully . I just came to know her, we"re not hooking up . . . "
"From my point of view, Li Hong"s right . She"s flirting with you . She dresses like a wh.o.r.e but pretends to be an untouchable G.o.ddess . By the way, she said you helped her . What exactly did you do for her?"
Xiao Bing put up a bitter smile . "Just do your job now . I"ll tell you later . "
He was afraid that they would still ask questions if he told them he lent her money, so he decided not to tell them .
"Whatever . Don"t let her steal your heart . "
Looking indignant, the two girls were still grumbling . Xiao Bing ignored them and called Yezi and told her about the invitation . Since Yezi was a sensible woman, she did not forbid him from going . She just mocked him for a few seconds .
At half-past four, Xiao Bing left the noodle house . He was thinking of things he should buy as a guest . So he bought a few pounds of fruit . But when he arrived at her door, he was doubting if he should do this . After all, she was a married woman and he just beat up her husband .
But retreating was never his way of doing things, since he was already at her door . He was definitely not afraid of that ugly man .
Xiao Bing knocked on the door and soon it was answered . Zhu Liya was wearing the same dress, but she changed her high heels for slippers . She wiped off the sweat on her head upon seeing Xiao Bing . She put up an unusual smile and said, "Come on in . I just finished cooking . I don"t know if you will like it . But at least give it a try . "
"Haha, how can I refuse the food made by a beauty?" Xiao Bing regretted at once after he said that . "d.a.m.n, I was a man of righteousness in front of Zhang Gui yesterday . Why do I sound like a rascal now?"
Soon the smile on his face faded and was replaced by a stern look . He then asked, "Where"s your husband?"
"He"s not home . It"s just me and you tonight . "
Xiao Bing smiled, "The food smells better when it"s made by a beauty . I can"t wait to eat . "
Xiao Bing threw his seriousness away upon hearing that her husband was not home .
Then Xiao Bing followed her to the dining room . The dining room was not very big, but it was quite clear and bright . Lying on the table were 4 courses, 1 soup, a bottle of wine, and two goblets . Then the two seated themselves . It was almost a candlelit dinner if there were candles, based on the romantic vibe . The atmosphere was heating up .
Though Zhu Liya was still aloof as usual, somehow Xiao Bing thought she was making eyes at him . Maybe it was because of the atmosphere .
"Brother Bing, what are you thinking right now?"
"No . . . nothing . I just felt moved . . . "
"Moved?"
"Yeah . Few men on earth are lucky enough to have the honor to enjoy your cooking . They will do anything to fight for the opportunity . "
Zhu Liya put on a light smile, "Brother Bing, I have always regarded you as an honest ordinary man!"
"I am!" Xiao Bing cleared his throat and grinned, "Just kidding . "
"I changed my opinion of you last night . No ordinary man can do the things you did in that casino . To be honest, I was still terrified upon thinking of it later that night . "
"I just cannot stand any injustice . "
Zhu Liya opened a bottle of wine and filled the goblets with it . She picked up a goblet and smiled, "Brother Bing, here"s to your sense of justice . "
"That"s something every Chinese ought to do . " Xiao Bing raised his goblet and they clinked gla.s.ses . They both drank half of their wine .
"Brother Bing, time to taste my cooking . "
"My pleasure . " Zhu Liya still did not mention that Zhang Gui was beaten, which made Xiao Bing confused . He a.s.sumed that he didn"t tell her about it . But at least she could tell from his appearance, since Xiao Bing had beat him so hard .
Xiao Bing had a bite and it was really delicious, which made him more puzzled at the fact that she was married to Zhang Gui . "How can she be married to such a loser? Was he rich and handsome before? But for some reason he became what he is today? Wait . . . There is no way he could be handsome before . So, was he short but rich?"
Xiao deliberately asked her in a casual tone, "Your husband"s not home . Is he gambling again?"
"I don"t know . " Zhu Liya sighed when Xiao Bing mentioned her husband . There was bitterness hidden in her eyes, which softened Xiao Bing"s heart .
Zhu Liya was good at managing her emotions . Seeming to have realized that she should not behave like this in front of a man she just met, she restored her aloofness and said, "He didn"t come home after he said that he was going to run after you . Later he called me, saying that he was living with one of his friends . "
Xiao Bing inwardly laughed . He was sure that Zhang Gui was afraid of being asked about how he got injured . Otherwise if she knew that Zhang Gui intended to sell her for money, he would have to suffer . So he simply did not come home . Actually, Zhang Gui was doing Xiao Bing a favor . Though he beat him for a good reason, he would still be awkward if Zhu Liya knew .
The vibe was good and the dinner was specially made for him, so Xiao Bing regretted bringing it up . But Zhu Liya went on with it . She looked at Xiao Bing with her sentimental eyes and asked, "Do you want to know why I"m married to such a man?"
"She seems to be unhappy about her husband for a long time, otherwise she would not have used "such a man" . But it"s absolutely normal . It would be weird if any woman could be satisfied with him . It"s not about appearance or money . He"s morally degenerated . He"s not worthy of anyone at all," Xiao Bing thought to himself .
Seeming to know that Xiao Bing didn"t know the answer, she picked her goblet and drank the rest of the wine . Then she filled both of their goblets . Xiao Bing noticed that she was feeling melancholy . He worriedly urged, "Don"t think too much . Sorrows won"t simply go away by drinking!"
Zhu Liya stared at Xiao Bing and suddenly burst into laughter, "You"re afraid of things I might do with you after I"m drunk, right?"
Xiao Bing"s heart suddenly b.u.mped fast . Though she was not coquettish and she did not mean to seduce anyone when speaking, he still found these words so tempting when they were from an aloof queen"s mouth .
