Chapter 103 - The ‘fish’ had taken the bait.
Kiss Husband: Sweet Wife Is a Little Crisp
Meng Jingyue was wearing a sexy number, quite different from yesterdayâs dress.
âSorry, Iâm a little late!â
Of course, Ling Xi knew that she had deliberately arrived late. She said with a smile, âItâs okay, I just got here too.â
Getting up gracefully and pulling out the chair gently for her, she waited until she was seated, before giving the dress to her. âHere you go.â
Meng Jingyue thanked him and when she took it, she âaccidentallyâ let her shoulder strap fall, and pretending to be unaware, watched the âmanâsâ expression carefully. âRight, I forgot to return the suit to you yesterday.â
When she handed the bag over to him, she purposely bent down, exposing a charming aspect to the eye.
Ling Xi took this in calmly, eyes cold as she moved her gaze away. âMiss, your shoulder strap has dropped.â
Hearing âhisâ reminder and seeing âhisâ expression, Meng Jingyue pulled the shoulder strap back up in embarrassment.
She thought in her heart, he was indeed different from the men she had seen before. There was no desire in his eyes, making it impossible for people to fathom.
âSir, you⦠What is your intention in regards to getting close to me?â
Ling Xiâs hand that had been about to pick up the food shook. She looked up, pretending to wipe her hand calmly. âMiss, what you say really matches your appearance, without scruples!â
She immediately stood up. âAlthough it was only coffee that spilled on you, I paid a very high price for it. Weâre even. Waiter, the bill.â
She was leaving without honouring the appointment and without having a bad attitude, she was just leaving⦠Just to prove that she didnât have impure thoughts as she was thinking, and that she didnât have any other motive. She⦠would want her to stay, right?
Seeing that the âmanâ really wanted to leave, Meng Jingyueâs face was a little anxious. âSir, I was wrong just now. Please donât take it to heart.â
Ling Xi who had already settled the bill glanced at her. âIs there anything else?â That look, that tone, it was as if nothing could enter her eyes.
It was careless, having a wild arrogance.
Meng Jingyue shook her head in a daze. âUh⦠no⦠Thereâs nothing.â
However when Ling Xi was about to turn around, Meng Jingyue reacted to what she had just said and shouted hurriedly, âWait a minute. Can I buy you a drink?â
Hearing that she wanted her to wait, the corners of Ling Xiâs mouth bent slightly into a radiant arc. The âfishâ had taken the bait.
Her face was calm, without waves. âAlright.â
Inside a box in the bar.
The door completely blocked out the noise and the hullabaloo outside.
âSir, I still donât know what to call you yet!â
âBai Tianqi.â
âTianqi, what a good name. My name is Meng Jingyue, nice to meet you.â
Seeing the girlâs stretched hand, Ling Xi gently shook it and let go. She didnât have any favorable impressions for a âmistressâ.
Just touching âhisâ hand, Meng Jingyue was secretly happy. The feeling of her heart pumping with joy was really wonderful.
At this time, Ling Xi took out her cell phone. âExcuse me, I have to make a phone call.â
After making the phone call, Ling Xi returned to the private room, and while sipping her wine, clicked her glass with the other sideâs. âCheers.â
âMiss Meng doesnât seem to have a high alcoholic tolerance level?â
Being stimulated like this by Ling Xi, Meng Jingyue who was already a little drunk said, âItâs not true! Watch!â
The two moderate bottles of foreign wine on the table entered Meng Jingyueâs stomach.
âYou see, my tolerance level is very powerful. Let them serve it again.â
After a while, Meng Jingyueâs consciousness gradually became confused.
Ling Xi picked up her cell phone, wondering whether they would be arriving soon.
