Once Mu Tianyu said the words fiancée, Xiao Ning’s small face flushed red.
“Brother Tianyu!”
“Enough, enough. It’s my fault, my little fiancée. I shouldn’t have said this in public…”
“Brother Tianyu, you’re still talking!”
“Oh! Let’s not talk about it anymore!” Mu Tianyu rubbed his forehead somewhat clumsily. He wasn’t good at pleasing girls yet.
However, he had always taken Xiao Ning’s engagement seriously. He wanted to work hard in his career. When Xiao Ning graduated, he would marry her.
He had long recognized her in his heart!
Gu Qiqi wanted to let the two of them bond properly and let Xiao Ning get rid of Bai Yeyuan as soon as possible. Then, she pulled up Xiaolan’s hand. “Xiaolan, the finals of the school tournament are tomorrow. I nearly forgot that we have to go back for training!”
“Ah? What training…” The innocent Xiaolan was dumbfounded.
Only when she saw Gu Qiqi blinking at her desperately did she realize what was going on and cough. “Oh, yes, yes, yes. We’re going to the training camp. Ah, we can’t join the gathering anymore. Lawyer Mu, you and Xiao Ning can eat first today. You two must be happy. I’ll invite everyone together another day!”
Gu Qiqi was speechless. Why was Xiaolan-this child-saying things so clearly?
Indeed.
Xiao Ning’s small face was about to turn red.
Qiqi! Xiaolan!
You’re betraying your good sister!
They actually wanted me to stay with Brother Tianyu for a meal alone! This was awkward.
However, Gu Qiqi had already left with Xiaolan with a smile and “ruthlessly” left her for Mu Tianyu.
In a small pub next to the court.
Mu Tianyu ordered a table of Qing Cheng countryside specialty dishes. “Little Lemon, I haven’t eaten with you in a long time. Tell me, are you happy in university? Do you want to go home? What are your plans after graduating? Oh, this dish, Oyster Root, is the signature dish of this restaurant’s chef. It has the style of our Qing Cheng. It’s very fragrant. Try it…”
Seeing Mu Tianyu’s concerned face, gentle concern, and a table of authentic home-cooked food, Xiao Ning’s nose stung.
This was the correct way for boys to date girls, right?
Her shady times with Bai Yeyuan was simply embarrassing compared to the bright Brother Tianyu. Thinking of Bai Yeyuan, Xiao Ning immediately felt that for some reason, she felt inferior in front of a pure and beautiful boy like Mu Tianyu, an elite lawyer with a limitless future.
He was still very clean, but she was already
dirty.
A trace of mist surfaced in her eyes. No matter how delicious the food was, she had no appetite when it was placed in front of her.
“Did I not order well? Little Lemon, why aren’t you eating a bite?”
“No, no! The food was delicious. I… I’m not hungry yet.” Xiao Ning sniffed and avoided him. “Brother Tianyu, you’re really awesome. Just now, in the court, you defeated the Empire’s number one lawyer. I saw that his face was ashen when he left the stage…”
Mu Tianyu touched his tie shyly. “Actually, it’s all Qiqi’s credit. Her evidence is the deciding factor. I just did the routine that a lawyer can do…”
“No! You have to know that no lawyer was willing to take on the Yang family’s case. You’re especially righteous. You’ve never looked down on their family’s downfall. You’re not afraid that they can’t pay the lawyer fees.”
Mu Tianyu was even more embarrassed. He was about to explain further that Gu Qiqi was his major shareholder, so it was only right that he did not charge anything.
Xiao Ning’s phone rang suddenly. Xiao Ning glanced at the phone screen and her face turned pale.
