Chapter 67

"I know..."

An Xingyue answered unwillingly: "I will go to the company to bring him food tomorrow."

The next day at noon.

Xu Tian and Yun Shuo were eating lunch in the company cafeteria.

"How was your date yesterday?" Xu Tian asked while eating.

Yun Shuo hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth: "Xu Tian, I had a showdown with Rong Yan."

"Showdown? What kind of showdown?"

"I told her that asking her out to dinner was your idea, and the reason I asked her out was mainly to use her to make An Xingyue angry."

"Then I apologized to her. I felt I shouldn't have used her, and I told her I wasn't ready to enter the next relationship immediately, so we could be friends for now."

Xu Tian didn't expect Yun Shuo to be so honest and tell Rong Yan their whole plan. Wasn't this a recipe for being single forever?

However, since Yun Shuo had already had a showdown with Rong Yan, and Rong Yan could still agree to be friends with him for the time being, it meant the other party didn't mind.

"Forget it, if you and her really can't be together, being friends is also quite good."

After all, this was Yun Shuo's private matter, and Xu Tian wouldn't interfere too much.

Yun Shuo sighed: "Actually, I think Rong Yan is a good person. Before, because I was worried An Xingyue would be jealous, I deleted the contact information of all my female friends after being with her, including Rong Yan's."

"Actually, thinking about it, Rong Yan and I got along quite well in the same club in college. At least as friends, I don't dislike it."

"Mm, don't put too much pressure on yourself either." Xu Tian comforted him.

Yun Shuo nodded slightly: "There is one more thing. Yesterday my father told me that they used the excuse of the company account being frozen to not remit money to the Yun family's company, and he has already started to recover the funds for the projects the two families are working on together. The Yun family hasn't noticed yet."

"Mm, with your father taking charge of the company matters personally, it will definitely be foolproof. However..."

However, just as Xu Tian was about to warn Yun Shuo to be careful about the An family's recent movements, he suddenly saw a familiar figure walking over.

It was An Xingyue.

Xu Tian immediately stopped talking and continued to bury his head in his meal.

And after the embarrassment of arguing with Yun Shuo in public yesterday, today's An Xingyue acted as if nothing had happened, coming to the seat beside Yun Shuo with her head held high and sitting down.

"Yun Shuo, you're eating lunch. What a coincidence, I had someone order a nutritious meal from a five-star hotel for you."

As she spoke, she directed the two bodyguards behind her to place the lunch boxes one by one on the table.

Yun Shuo looked up at those dishes; none of them were what he liked to eat, but were basically what Xu Rixin liked to eat.

Soon, his gaze fell on one of the seafood porridges.

It was one thing that he didn't like the other things, but didn't An Xingyue know he was allergic to seafood?

An Xingyue didn't notice Yun Shuo's expression, but instead spoke to Yun Shuo as if she were bestowing a favor:

"Yun Shuo, look, I brought you lunch specially. It was my fault before, so don't be angry anymore. I have a rather straightforward temper and have always been like this; shouldn't you be used to it by now? Eat the food I brought you, and I'll consider you've forgiven me."

Xu Tian couldn't help but put down his chopsticks and look up at the woman sitting across from him.

An Xingyue's thought process was truly unfathomable.

He had never seen anyone apologize like this, and today was truly an eye-opener for him.

In fact, he knew very well that An Xingyue was willing to lower her head to Yun Shuo this time because the An family had put pressure on her, so she came to admit her mistake reluctantly.

It was just a pity that this young lady had long been used to being accommodated by Yun Shuo, and there was no entry for apologizing and admitting mistakes to Yun Shuo in her dictionary.

So even if she had to lower her head due to pressure, she still put on a full show, posing as a high-and-mighty young lady.

If it were the usual Yun Shuo, he might have fallen for An Xingyue's act and chosen to forgive her.

But now Yun Shuo had already seen An Xingyue's true colors and hated this woman to the bone, so naturally, he wouldn't be soft-hearted toward her again.

Sure enough, as Xu Tian expected, Yun Shuo pushed away the seafood porridge in front of him and said in a cold tone: "An Xingyue, we were together for so long before; don't you know I'm allergic to seafood?"

An Xingyue was stunned for a moment: "You're allergic to seafood?"

Damn it!

When did Yun Shuo ever tell her he was allergic to seafood?

And, where would she have the time to remember what Yun Shuo liked to eat and what he didn't?

Now that there were so many people around, why did Yun Shuo have to say it out loud even if he was allergic to seafood?

She had already lowered her head and apologized; did he have to make her lose face in front of everyone?

An Xingyue slowly clenched her fists, already unable to help wanting to curse at Yun Shuo.

But thinking of her grandmother's instructions on the phone yesterday, she took a few deep breaths, managed to suppress her anger, squeezed out a smile, and said: "Maybe I forgot, but I bought a lot of dishes. If you can't drink the seafood porridge, you can eat the other dishes."

"The dishes you brought are basically all things Xu Rixin likes to eat."

Yun Shuo curled his lips into a cold smile: "An Xingyue, are you sure you came to bring me food, and not to bring it to Xu Rixin? The food you brought me doesn't have anything I like, but is all stuff Xu Rixin likes. This apology is truly sincere."

An Xingyue's face darkened even more upon hearing this.

"I had people bring you these things before; I remember you clearly ate them very happily? Yun Shuo, it really was my fault this time, can you stop making a scene?"

Yun Shuo laughed at himself upon hearing this, his eyes full of mockery.

He ate them very happily before?

Heh, that was because An Xingyue rarely sent people to bring him food, and he was moved to tears the one time she did.

Let alone dishes he didn't like, he probably would have swallowed even rotten food and leftovers without hesitation.

Thinking carefully, every time An Xingyue brought him food before, Xu Rixin was present, and every time she had people bring dozens of boxes of food at once.

Because he couldn't eat it all alone, An Xingyue would distribute those dishes to others, which naturally included Xu Rixin's share.

Now it seemed that An Xingyue had already calculated it all; bringing him food was just a cover, and the main purpose was to use that food to please Xu Rixin.

So long before he knew anything about it, these two had already been hooking up behind his back.

He had even treated Xu Rixin as a friend before; he was truly stupid...

"Alright, why are you being so pretentious as a grown man? I brought you so much food, it can't be wasted."

An Xingyue said, taking a box of sauce-braised pork ribs and placing it in front of Yun Shuo.

"Eat quickly, these dishes won't taste good if they get cold."

Xu Tian, who had watched the whole process from the side: "..."

Does this woman have a problem with her brain?

It's one thing that she can't lower her stance to please Yun Shuo, but she went to great lengths to bring so many things Yun Shuo doesn't like, and after being exposed, not only does she not feel ashamed, but she takes it for granted and forces Yun Shuo to finish eating what she brought.

That Yun Shuo could even tolerate such a woman before; it seems love really can make people blind.

But it was clear that An Xingyue had miscalculated this time; even the blindest person has a day of waking up.

"I said I don't like eating these dishes. I'm not a trash can, take them away."

An Xingyue had never thought Yun Shuo would dare to give her so little face. In her anger, her sharp nails almost sank into her flesh: "Yun Shuo, don't go too far!"

"You think I'm going too far now, but did you ever think about how far you were going when you were being intimate with Xu Rixin behind my back?"

An Xingyue was so angry her eyes turned red. The reason she had the upper hand when she argued with Yun Shuo before was because Yun Shuo let her have her way in everything and wouldn't let her suffer any grievances.

How did it become like this now?

Just as An Xingyue was so angry she was preparing to curse, a slender figure in a beige professional suit came before her.

An Xingyue looked at the woman walking over, her face terrifyingly gloomy.

"Rong Yan, you bitch, why are you like a ghost that won't go away?"

Rong Yan acted as if she didn't see An Xingyue, walking straight to Yun Shuo's side while placing an exquisite food box in her hand on the table.

"Yun Shuo, are you eating lunch? It just so happens I cooked a few dishes myself to add to your meal."

As she spoke, she opened the food box and took out exquisite dishes one by one: four meat dishes, four vegetable dishes, as well as cold appetizers, snacks, and post-meal fruits cut extremely neatly.
