Lu Xiaoyao’s eyes trembled.

She couldn’t even say a word.

She had never mentioned these words to Ning Mengmeng, and she was not the kind of person who would say anything just because she was drunk, so…

Lu Xiaoyao really believed Ning Mengmengs words.

“l understand.’

In the end, Lu Xiaoyao said these few words, but Ning Mengmeng held her hand.

“Xiaoyao, I don’t know why you can’t get back together with your first boyfriend, but don’t force yourself, okay? If you really go, your father only has you as his only daughter. Are you really willing to leave your father behind?”

Lu Xiaoyao’s expression changed. She didn’t even know what to say.

Lu Xiaoyao finally sighed. “Okay.”

She only replied with one word, while Ning Mengmeng looked at Lu Xiaoyao. “l know you haven’t experienced it like me. I told you all of this, so you can’t believe it, but… Xiaoyao, believe me, I won’t lie to you.”

Ning Mengmeng’s voice was exceptionally solemn. Lu Xiaoyao nodded. “l know.”

Lu Xiaoyao knew Ning Mengmengs personality very well. However, she really didn’t want to believe what happened just now, so she asked if Ning Mengmeng was lying to her.

Lu Xiaoyao took a deep breath. Suddenly, she heard a knock on the door. She said, “The delivery riders must have arrived. I’ll open the door.”

Ning Mengmeng nodded and said nothing else.

However…

Ning Mengmeng suddenly felt a little regretful. If she had known earlier, she would have told them after they had just finished eating, but now… Xiaoyao definitely couldn’t eat anything.

Ning Mengmeng sighed, but she had no other choice. If Xiaoyao could leave this man and save her life, she would be able to eat as much as she wanted, let alone starve.

Soon, Lu Xiaoyao came in with a few boxes of takeout. “Go wash your hands.

Let’s eat.”

“Alright.”

Ning               answered happily and did not mention this matter again.

This time, she had said what she needed to say. If it wasn’t for the fact that Lu Xiaoyao didn’t believe her at all, she really wouldn’t have said these things.

However, she would only say this once. She promised not to mention her rebirth to anyone in the future!

She would just treat this matter as a dream and let it pass.

Just like that, the two of them sat at the dining table together, but they were not as interested as before. Even if they were eating, they were not interested. Soon, Lu Xiaoyao put dovvn her chopsticks. She really couldn’t eat anymore.

Ning Mengmeng also put down her chopsticks. She opened her mouth slightly, but she, who was usually talkative, suddenly didn’t know how to comfort others.

Every time this happened, Ning Mengmeng would be annoyed at herself for saying all those useless things every day. Now that she needed to speak, she was like a mute, unable to say a word.

Seeing Ning Mengmengs conflicted expression, Lu Xiaoyao quickly said, “Mengmeng, don’t feel guilty. On the contrary, I’m very grateful for you telling me. If you didn’t tell me, my life might have been ruined.”

Her voice was very soft, but there was a hint of helplessness in her expression.

However, if one listened carefully, one could still hear the gratitude in her voice.

Ning Mengmeng shook her head. “Sigh… If I had a better way, I wouldn’t have chosen this. However, Xiaoyao, your personality is too straightforward, and his identity… Find an excuse to separate. Otherwise, I’m worried about you….”
