The Billionaire's New Wife in Chief

Chapter 1285 - 645: Xi Mohan & Wanwan Arc – Encounter with Xi Mohan and Ning Yan’er (3)

Ning Yan’er had been discussing matters with Xi Mohan, but suddenly heard a sound interrupt her, visibly showing slight displeasure. She turned her head and saw Ning Wan and Lin Musen walking towards them, and her eyes widened instantly.

Lin Musen and that little brat Ning Wan... when did they start hanging out together?

Lin Musen showed no sign of avoidance. He spoke to the waiter, "We’ll find a seat ourselves later, there’s no need for you here."

The waiter immediately nodded and responded, "Okay sir, you can ring the bell to call us when you want to order."

Lin Musen acknowledged the waiter with a hum, and then led Ning Wan by the hand towards Xi Mohan and Ning Yan’er’s table.

There weren’t many guests on the second floor; most people were sitting downstairs. Lin Musen’s voice had attracted some attention, but since everyone was there to dine, they only glanced over briefly before returning to their meals.

Walking with Ning Wan to Xi Mohan’s table, Lin Musen smiled and explained, "I’m out to eat with Ning Wan. We had mentioned earlier that we hadn’t tried this restaurant before, so I asked Ning Wan to join me to taste the food, though I didn’t expect you guys to be eating here as well."

Standing beside Lin Musen, Ning Wan’s complexion was pale but otherwise not unusual. Her small face already returned to an expressionless state, with pink lips pressed lightly together, looking down without speaking.

She felt incredibly uneasy inside, but she had now learned to control her emotions.

However, upon hearing Lin Musen’s words, she was slightly suspicious. Could it be Lin Musen didn’t know Xi Mohan and Ning Yan’er were dining here, which is why he brought her along?

Moreover, if she hadn’t forgotten, Lin Musen said in the car they would have two dinners tonight...

All of a sudden, Ning Wan was a bit doubtful of Lin Musen’s words.

If Lin Musen knew what Ning Wan was thinking, he would certainly exclaim his innocence, because he truly didn’t know Xi Mohan and Ning Yan’er were dining at this restaurant. The reason he came here was purely because a friend recommended it for its good taste.

And his reason for saying they could have two dinners was solely because he knew very well that Western food isn’t filling, so he planned to take Ning Wan to eat something else afterward.

Xi Mohan still held his fork and knife, and glanced lightly at Ning Wan standing beside Lin Musen. His eyes reflected unknown emotions, but he said nothing.

Instead, Ning Yan’er had already put down her knife and fork and looked at Ning Wan, then directly asked, "Ning Wan, why are you here? Have you forgotten the rules at home?"

She didn’t sound aggressive; rather, she looked at Ning Wan with a slight smile and asked softly.

Ning Yan’er knew well what she ought to do now. With Xi Mohan sitting in front of her, she certainly couldn’t ruin her image, so even though she wanted to sharply question Ning Wan, she had to suppress her internal frustration and speak gently.

Hearing Ning Yan’er’s words, Ning Wan finally lifted her head to look at her, and her lips parted slightly as she responded, "If you can come here, why can’t I? Besides, rest assured, Grandpa already knows."

Her tone wasn’t very good, even though she tried her best to restrain herself; ultimately, she couldn’t completely control her annoyance.

Ning Yan’er was momentarily stupefied by Ning Wan’s words, her complexion slightly darkening, her lips moved, yet she couldn’t utter a complete sentence, "You..."

Lin Musen looked at Ning Wan, then at Ning Yan’er, smiled and explained, "Rest assured, Eldest Lady Ning, I spoke to Old Master Ning and got his permission before bringing Wanwan out."

Hearing Lin Musen’s words, Ning Yan’er showed a hint of surprise on her face and took a long moment before speaking, "You and Ning Wan... how do you know each other?"

If she wasn’t mistaken, Lin Musen had just returned today, right? And he actually knows Ning Wan?

Furthermore, it seems like they have a good relationship. The key point is, she noticed Lin Musen holding Ning Wan’s hand.
