Hearing the crisp sound, Su Wan looked up and saw Lin Feiâer pushing the door open and entering.
Lin Feiâerâs short hair fell over her shoulders and she wore a lavender knee-length dress. She looked very ladylike.
Su Wan placed the pineapple barbecued pork bun in her hand on the plate and waved at Lin Feiâer with a smile.
âI havenât eaten yet. I feel so hungry.â
Lin Feiâerâs face was round. She walked over quickly and glanced at Su Wan. Then, she picked up a pineapple cream bun and put it in her mouth. âYouâre so disloyal. I havenât eaten either, okay?â
Su Wan smiled and reached out her slender hand to brush over the dishes on the table.
âYes, yes, yes. I shouldnât have eaten before the queen came. Iâll apologize to you. Eat as many as you want. Is that okay?â
âThatâs more like it.â
Lin Feiâer giggled. Her dark eyes lit up as she swallowed her saliva at the delicacies on the table.
The waiter happened to come up again and continued to add a few more dishes to the table. There were shrimp dumpling king, steamed chicken feet in black bean sauce, and two servings of porridge. One was white fungus lotus seed porridge, and the other was lean meat porridge with century egg.
Su Wan pushed the lean meat porridge with preserved eggs to Lin Feiâer. Then, she slowly put on her gloves and picked up a chicken foot with black bean sauce.
Su Wan and Lin Feiâer often came to this restaurant when they were in high school. The food was quite good, and it was especially cost-effective to order a double meal.
What surprised Su Wan the most was that three years had passed, but the price on the menu of this restaurant had not risen much.
Probably because of the cheap and beautiful food, this Hong Kong-style tea restaurant had a surprising number of customers. Almost every table had customers.
Su Wan took a bite of the chicken foot with black bean sauce. The chicken foot was steamed until it was crisp and soaked through. It did not take much effort to bite it. The sauce was probably had a secret recipe. It tasted very sweet but did not make people tired of the taste.
The taste had not changed after three years. The owner of this tea restaurant really had the place well-run.
âThis restaurantâs chicken feet is especially delicious. Feiâer, try it too.â
As Su Wan said that, she pushed the plate containing the gloves over to Lin Feiâer.
Lin Feiâerâs eyes were curved. She quickly put down the spoon in her hand and began to put on the gloves for herself to eat the chicken feet.
Although both of them knew that the purpose of coming out this time was not to eat, Su Wan and Lin Feiâer did not mention this matter in an extremely tacit understanding.
If they talked about troublesome things at the dinner table, it would easily upset their appetites.
On this point, Su Wan and Lin Feiâer reached an indisputable consensus.
When the two of them had finished more than half of the dishes on the table, Su Wan and Lin Feiâer finally got to the main topic of the day.
Su Wan put down the coconut paste bun in her hand. She looked at Lin Feiâer and asked tentatively.
âFeiâer, youâve been thinking about it for the past few days. Howâs it going?â
Lin Feiâerâs hand froze when she heard that. She looked up at the person in front of her with a hint of confusion in her eyes.
âI... I havenât thought it through yet.â
Upon hearing this expected answer, Su Wan let out a soft âoh.â She could understand why Lin Feiâer was so hesitant.
On one hand, it was because she lacked trust in marriage and love. On the other hand, Lin Feiâer was probably not confident enough. She was afraid that if she took this step, it would lead to a bottomless abyss.
Su Wan shook her head helplessly and fixed her gaze on Lin Feiâer. When Su Wan saw that her beautiful brows were slightly furrowed and her bright face was gradually suffused with bitterness, she could not help but pity her.
âFeiâer, listen to me. You are pregnant now, and Jiang Haoxuan is the father of the child in your belly. Think about it. If you were to marry into the Jiang family, at least your child would have a father when it is young, right?â
âMaybe thereâs some misunderstanding between the two of you, and the things that happened were not so pleasant, but I can guarantee that the Jiang family is a very strict family. Although Jiang Haoxuan is not as smart as his brother, his character is definitely not a problem.â
âWouldnât it be great if you could give the child double the love and make the childâs life less gloomy?â
Su Wan felt that it was most effective to persuade Lin Feiâer to make a decision from the childâs point of view. No one knew better than her the importance Lin Feiâer placed on the blood in her belly.
When Su Wanâs comforting words fell into her ears, Lin Feiâerâs expression became a little absent-minded.
Yes, the current atmosphere in Jiuzhou was more conservative. Once someone gave birth to a child out of wedlock, it was inevitable that people would talk about it. Even if they did not say it on the surface, who knew how many times they would laugh behind her back.
Lin Feiâer felt that it didnât matter that she had been wronged. She was an adult and her mind was mature. She could endure it for a while and it would be over. However, after the birth of this little thing in her stomach, Lin Feiâer was really afraid that those rumors that were as sharp as blades would hurt her child.
Lin Feiâer absolutely didnât want her childâs young mind to be tainted with dust.
She wanted to protect her childâs safety.
When she thought of this, Lin Feiâerâs heart suddenly felt a little sour. She looked at Su Wan, who had a serious expression on her face, and mumbled.
âI know that Iâm already very lucky that Jiang Haoxuan is willing to marry me. Iâm not trying to give him a hard time, Iâm just afraid...â
âWhat are you afraid of?â
Su Wan glanced at Lin Feiâer with some anger, and then said in a deep voice, âeven if you donât believe the Jiang family, you have to believe me, right? Iâm also married to the Jiang family. I wonât just stand by and watch others bully you.â
As Su Wan spoke, she began to analyze Lin Feiâerâs family relationship.
âIf there are no accidents, after you marry into the Jiang family, you will live in the old mansion with Jiang Haoxuan. However, the old Buddha of the Jiang family, Luo Xiuxiu, is a very easy person to get along with. It will be very easy for you to get along with her.â
âAs for Jiang Haoxuanâs mother, Xu Ziyao, youâve also met her. I know that you argued with her for me at the Zhao Hua Hospital last time, but sheâs such an open-minded person. She definitely wonât take it to heart, much less make things difficult for you.â
Lin Feiâer shook her head and suddenly interrupted Su Wanâs words.
âI... Iâm not afraid of these things... actually, Wan, Jiang Haoxuan hasnât come to look for me these past two days. Is he regretting it?â
Lin Feiâer hadnât thought about marrying Jiang Haoxuan before and had repeatedly embarrassed him. After thinking about it for the past few days, she had already been persuaded by Su Wan, but Jiang Haoxuan hadnât come to look for her.
Su Wan was stunned when she heard that. Her almond-shaped eyes immediately curved into a crescent moon. She had thought that Lin Feiâer was still thinking of rejecting him. However, from the meaning of her words, Lin Feiâer was clearly moved!
Su Wan smiled slightly and looked mischievously at Lin Feiâer.
âMarriage is such an important matter. He must have thought about it carefully. Why would he suddenly regret it? He must have been too busy recently. In addition to being hit by you, he was too embarrassed to look for you, right?â
Su Wanâs guess was close to the truth. However, it was not because Jiang Haoxuan was busy with work, but because he was suddenly pestered by someone.
And that person was Sheng Anâning!
When Jiang Haoxuan saw Sheng Anâning, he was shocked. A person from B City had actually appeared in front of him!
When he saw Sheng Anâning again, Jiang Haoxuanâs heart was actually no longer in turmoil.
Seeing Sheng Anâning crying and begging for his comfort, he couldnât say a word. He just told Sheng Anâning to hurry back to the Sheng family before his grandfather found out.
With Sheng Anâningâs disturbance, Jiang Haoxuan was annoyed and wasnât in the mood to look for Lin Feiâer.
