Chapter 568

She had an appointment with Jiang Nannan in the evening, so she left early.

On the way, she chatted with Shu Xuan for a bit.

From Shu Xuan's words, she gathered a piece of information: the two of them were developing their relationship rapidly, and Shu Xuan did not want to wait too long; he wanted to give Shen Anran the promise of a home as soon as possible.

On Monday, he took leave to go to the Shen Family with Shen Anran.

Shen Anran......

Shu Xia tapped her fingers lightly on the steering wheel; as luck would have it, Shen Anran actually called her.

"Do you have time tomorrow? Shall we meet for lunch?" Shen Anran asked her.

Shu Xia happened to want to see Shen Anran as well, "Okay, just send me the time and address."

The two had a brief conversation and ended the call after only a few words.

Shu Xia arrived at the restaurant she had agreed upon with Jiang Nannan ahead of time.

The two of them had the same taste and both loved eating hot pot; whenever they went out to eat during college, it was mostly hot pot.

Perhaps it was the telepathy between good sisters, but they arrived at almost the same time and bumped into each other at the entrance.

"People who didn't know would think we had planned this," Jiang Nannan laughed.

Shu Xia blinked, "We planned it in our hearts."

The two of them went upstairs.

This hot pot restaurant was very affordable and extremely crowded; if you didn't make a reservation in advance, you would almost never have a seat if you just showed up.

The two had already ordered their dishes before arriving, and after they sat down, the proprietress served the food according to the menu they had ordered.

The soup base was spicy, fresh, and fragrant.

Smelling the aroma, both of them had their eyes light up.

"I haven't eaten here in a long time; it's still the same old taste, so delicious! It's a fragrance that other places can't imitate!" Jiang Nannan swallowed her saliva; she hadn't had much appetite for the past two days and had lost several pounds, so today, being with Shu Xia, she was determined to make up for it.

Seeing that Jiang Nannan was still her carefree self, Shu Xia felt much more at ease, "I ordered everything you like to eat, so eat to your heart's content today. I even prepared digestive tablets for you."

"The person who understands me best is none other than you!" Jiang Nannan was moved to tears.

"Huh? Nannan?"

Suddenly, someone appeared in front of them.

Shu Xia happened to be facing the newcomer, and when she looked up, she saw a man in his thirties wearing a high-end suit, looking like an elite and completely out of place in the hot pot restaurant.

She did not know this person.

But clearly, this person knew Jiang Nannan.

Jiang Nannan hadn't even had a chance to take a bite when she heard the voice and turned her head to look.

When she saw Huo Tianye, the smile on Jiang Nannan's face vanished without a trace.

"It really is you," Huo Tianye looked Jiang Nannan over.

Recently, he had heard some rumors that Huo Jingyan was secretly involved with his own secretary, and Jiang Nannan hadn't been home to stay for the past two days.

Jiang Nannan's expression was indifferent, "What a coincidence, cousin."

Huo Tianye didn't mind Jiang Nannan's coldness; he had been at odds with Huo Jingyan since he was a child, and he just thought it was too much of a coincidence, "Why didn't you come with Huo Jingyan? I heard you haven't been home for the past two days? Do my third aunt and the others know?"

Shu Xia understood.

This person was Huo Jingyan's cousin.

The Huo Family was a large family in Jing City with many people and many affairs, but after Jiang Nannan married Huo Jingyan, she rarely had contact with people from the Huo Family.

She didn't expect to run into someone from the Huo Family in an ordinary hot pot restaurant.

"You heard wrong; it's best to listen to less of that messy nonsense," although Jiang Nannan had decided to divorce Huo Jingyan and would not have any relationship with the Huo Family in the future, now was not the time to make a scene that would become the talk of the town and cause her parents to worry.

Huo Tianye let out a cold laugh; back when Huo Jingyan and Jiang Nannan got married, their grandfather didn't approve because Jiang Nannan's family background was too ordinary, and when his third uncle married his third aunt, it had already displeased their grandfather, yet Huo Jingyan ended up doing the same thing as his father.
