Chapter 329: If I Don’t Behave (2)
“Hubby, I’m now hungry. Let’s go and eat. Let me think about how to tell you this, and we’ll talk after dinner, okay?” Mu Huan pleaded with him.
“Okay.” Bao Junyan had never forced his little wife into anything. She could tell him if she liked, but if she didn’t, then it could wait until she trusted him enough to say it.
“Hubby, you’re the best!” Mu Huan stood on tiptoe and gave him a kiss.
Her husband was really good to her, really good.
Seeing how the situation was unfolding, Long Feiting clenched his fists tightly.
Why was he still standing around? Why was he watching the scene unfold?
Just as he was about to go, Bao Junyan walked off with his arm around Mu Huan.
He looked at the intimate view of their backs disappearing.
He relaxed his hands and then clenched them tightly again.
In the car…
“I’ll take you to have some yummy food,” Bao Junyan said as he reached out to lightly pat her head. He didn’t know why she was in low spirits today, so low that she didn’t want to see him and told a lie for that.
“Okay.” Mu Huan looked out of the window after mouthing a quick agreement and didn’t show any desire to speak further with Bao Junyan.
Bao Junyan didn’t say anything else but looked down to read his doc.u.ments.
Until the car pulled to a stop.
When Mu Huan saw that the car had parked near the barbequed skewers shop that she and Li Meng frequented, she thought that he was taking her to eat barbequed skewers and little lobsters and to have a beer.
Her eyes suddenly lit up with surprise. She didn’t think that he also liked this sort of food!
However, after getting out of the car…
Bao Junyan took her hand and led her to the cla.s.sy French restaurant across the road.
Although the two places were separated only by a road, they were worlds apart. It reminded her of their statuses. He was high up in the lofty clouds and she was in the mud — she didn’t even have basic freedom in life.
“Hubby, let’s go eat barbequed skewers! I suddenly feel like eating barbequed skewers!”
“That food is not clean and it’s full of carcinogens,” Bao Junyan said as he glanced at the barbequed skewers shop.
“It’s alright to have some once in a while!” Mu Huan grabbed his arm and threw a little tantrum.
“Be good.” Bao Junyan reached out to stroke her head lightly, a gesture that indicated he wanted her to be obedient and not eat that sort of unhealthy food.
Mu Huan: “…”
Now she was beginning to dislike this thing he did!
However, like all other times before, she did not argue further and followed him into the French restaurant.
There was once when Mu Huan had made a tidy sum of money and she had brought her granny, who loved French food, to enjoy a little extravagance here. Perhaps it was just her own taste, but she felt that the food there was mediocre and wasn’t filling. Hence, right after they walked out of the restaurant, she had gone to the shop across the road to buy some barbequed skewers. That was when she realized that that shop sold awesome barbequed skewers — the mutton was genuine and fairly priced, the food was clean, and from then on, she became a regular customer.
Mu Huan and Bao Junyan sat next to the full-length window. They were positioned right opposite the barbequed skewers shop.
Although it was autumn now, there were many people eating barbequed food outside.
Bao Junyan noticed that she kept looking out of the window, so he followed her line of sight.
Just as he was turning to look in that direction, it seemed that the women at one of the dining tables started an argument with the men at the next table. Then, a fight broke out. One of the women picked up a beer bottle and smashed it against the head of a man. After this, she raised her leg and kicked him in the crotch.
Mu Huan noticed that Bao Junyan had seen all this too and thought that this was a good chance…
Hence, she looked away from the scene and toward him.
However, at just this moment, an important call came in for Bao Junyan. After the call, Mu Huan felt that it was no longer appropriate to say what she wanted to say. She needed to think about it more, so she kept silent.
Until after the meal.
Bao Junyan looked at her.
She knew he was waiting to hear her reason.
