The four walked into the hotpot restaurant. It was already four o’clock in the afternoon. The hotpot restaurant had just opened for business. The lady boss personally came out to receive them enthusiastically.
‘ What pots do you want to eat? We have red oil pot: slightly spicy, spicy, heavy spicy, perverted spicy, and Chongqing spicy. We have three fresh pots, tomato pots, and mushroom soup pots…”
“I want it to be spicy!” Wen Xin smelled the hot pot in the restaurant and felt like she was about to drool. It had been a long time since she had eaten a spicy meal, and she could not hold it in anymore.
“I want a four-in-one: slightly spicy, three fresh, tomato, and mushroom soup!” Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin’s gluttonous expression and could not bear to reject her desire to eat spicy food. However, he knew that Wen Xin could not really eat spicy food now, so he did not dare to indulge her too much.
Mu Chengxi’s decision made Wen Xin extremely dissatisfied. Wen Xin looked at Mu Chengxi angrily. Mu Chengxi smiled dotingly, and gently squeezed the little hand in his hand, his voice gentle and comforting.
“When you can eat spicy food, I won’t care about you. Now, be good!”
Wen Xin rolled her eyes at the nosy Mu Chengxi. She was a little unhappy. She pulled her hand away from Mu Chengxi’s and walked to Tan Xingyue’s side. She pushed the wheelchair to the dining table inside to let Mu Chengxi and Liang Luoyu give their orders.
With the help of the waiter, Wen Xin positioned Tan Xingyue’s wheelchair. She sat lazily across from Tan Xingyue, one hand supporting her chin on the table, the other hand playing with the chopsticks on the table casually. No one knew what she was thinking.
“Wen Xin, who is that Mr. Mu? Have you known each other for a long time?” Tan Xingyue spoke in a low voice, her tone carrying a hint of caution.
Wen Xin did not expect Tan Xingyue to ask such a question. She raised her head and looked at Tan Xingyue with a cynical look in her eyes.
“He’s from the Mu family in Beijing. I don’t know what he does exactly. He’s not a good person, but he’s not a bad person either.”
At this point, Wen Xin paused for a moment. The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he smiled wickedly and dazzlingly. “It just so happens that I’m not a good person either!”
Wen Xin had never thought of herself as a good person. There were too many things that she could not let the innocent Tan Xingyue know. To her, Tan Xingyue only needed to be a little princess.
“No, you’re a good person. You’re the best person in the world!” Tan Xingyue did not like Wen Xin talking about herself like that. In Tan Xingyue’s mind, Wen Xin was the best person, the light of her world.
“Alright, you don’t have to worry about me. People like me are a scourge that lasts for a thousand years. Just rest well. When I’m done with your surgery, and you’re fully recovered, I’ll take you to school and do whatever you want!”
Wen Xin comforted Tan Xingyue in a gentle voice. Tan Xingyue was her life responsibility, and she would definitely take good care of her.
Soon, Liang Luoyu came over with two cups of milk tea. She handed one to Wen Xin and the other to Tan Xingyue with a straw inserted. He even reminded her softly, “It’s hot. Be careful not to burn yourself!”
Mu Chengxi followed behind Liang Luoyu and sat down beside Wen Xin. He took the milk tea from Wen Xin’s hands and inserted a straw into Wen Xin’s mouth.
“The hotpot will be served soon. Do you want anything else? I noticed that there’s a cake shop not far away. Shall I ask Liang Luoyu to buy some for you?” Mu Chengxi’s voice was gentle as he inquired about Wen Xin’s preferences. He wanted to know what she liked to eat..
