Chapter 594 Hongmen Banquet (2)
Chapter 594 Hongmen Banquet (2)
Because of Qiao Sheng's presence, Luo Ning and Xie Chang'an kept their distance.
But Xie Chang'an held Luo Ning's hand the whole time he got in the car, feeling as if he were holding the whole world in his hands, and his heart was pounding with joy.
My wife has finally arrived, and our marriage application has been approved. I feel like life couldn't be more perfect.
"Honey, are you tired?"
"Not tired!" Luo Ning shook her head. She came from the capital today and didn't feel tired at all since she hadn't been in the car for long.
"Then I'll take you somewhere after we finish eating!" For the first time, Xie Chang'an made a decisive decision without consulting Luo Ning.
His gaze unconsciously fell on Luo Ning's right hand, and he felt a surge of emotion as he recalled the night Luo Ning left home.
Luo Ning seemed to be able to read Xie Chang'an's mind, and subconsciously pulled her hand back. This bastard was thinking all sorts of things in broad daylight, and his integrity had completely vanished.
Xie Chang'an immediately pulled Luo Ning's hand over and placed it on his lap.
Luo Ning glared at him. "Xie Chang'an, there are people in front of us. Stop messing around."
"Wife, there are people in front of us. Don't make any big movements, or they'll notice!" Xie Chang'an held Luo Ning's hand, his heart burning with desire.
The scenes from that night kept replaying in my mind...
Luo Ning: "..."
She suddenly tensed up, fearing that Xie Chang'an might do something inappropriate, especially since Qiao Sheng was still ahead of them.
After finally getting off the bus, Luo Ning pulled her hand away and fled as if she were escaping, her palms sweating from nervousness.
As soon as she got out of the car, it started raining as hard as the rain that day when she went back to ask Lu Yiping for living expenses. Goodness, Luo Ning felt that she was just a hair's breadth away from dying on the spot.
In a flash, she even came up with a live broadcast plan for the funeral.
When I got on the bus, the sun was shining brightly, and the flowers seemed to be smiling at me; the weather is so unpredictable.
Xie Chang'an hurriedly took a spare umbrella from the trunk, held it over Luo Ning's head, and then put his arm around her shoulder and ran towards the restaurant.
At the back entrance of the restaurant, Ye was urging Xu Jianbin, "Besides not eating mutton, what else does Luo Ning not eat?"
Xu Jianbin was almost in despair; this woman was driving him to the point where his brain wasn't working properly.
He had almost never eaten with Luo Ning. The only time he could think of lamb was when Zhong Cheng mentioned it. Luo Ning had never cooked lamb before, and he really didn't know anything else about it!
But the woman was acting like a madwoman, constantly pressing him for answers, so he had no choice but to make something up.
"Luoning comes from a well-off family. She gets all the good food at home, while her younger sister doesn't get any. She doesn't eat any weird or strange things!"
Ye was very satisfied with the answer and turned to go into the kitchen to give instructions to the head chef.
When Luo Ning and Xie Chang'an entered the restaurant, Ye was already sitting in a chair waiting.
Her face, with its poor proportions and low resolution, appeared peaceful, but Luo Ning could see the tension beneath that playful facade.
This is not a welcome banquet, it's a trap. Case closed.
The chubby boy arranged for everyone to take their seats, becoming a master at creating a lively atmosphere; the seating arrangement was quite skillful.
Luo Ning stood next to Xie Chang'an, and Ye was next to Xie Chang'an.
The chubby boy received a barrage of glares. He felt wronged, but he dared not speak out for fear of being beaten to death by the mob.
He originally wanted Ling to sit next to Luo Ning, but a strong force pushed him forward, and Ling was pushed aside. Ye Lu's face was slightly exposed, and he sat down in the empty seat next to Xie Chang'an like a gust of wind.
Everyone, seething with anger, took their seats, their gazes fixed on the chubby boy.
The chubby boy vomited blood and died!
The moment Ling was tackled, no one else noticed, but it didn't escape Luo Ning's eyes.
A waitress with a face full of pimples suddenly burst into tears at a crucial moment, making her an internet sensation.
Xie Chang'an, of course, hadn't missed the exciting moment either, and he was completely stunned.
Luo Ning sensed that he was uncomfortable all over, and began to talk nonsense in a serious tone, "Chang'an, your position has better feng shui, let's switch. Besides, Political Commissar Ye is hosting a welcome dinner for me today, I should toast her a few more times, it will be more convenient for me to switch positions."
The young wife was so understanding that Xie Chang'an felt as if he had been granted a pardon and hurriedly got up to exchange seats.
Now, Luo Ning is seated with Xie Chang'an on his left and Ye on his right, which looks much better, and the onlookers are secretly applauding.
Ye felt a surge of resentment, but she couldn't shamelessly switch seats like Luo Ning. Besides, Xie Chang'an was sitting next to someone she couldn't do anything about.
凌!
Ling was the only doctor present, and he was well-known in Jidu and the capital. Ye would be on a mission and would not dare to offend the doctor easily.
And so, the seating arrangement was decided.
Ye's anger surged, and the welcome banquet for the three of them turned into a large gathering, all because of that bitch Luo Ning!
You've hit the nail on the head, you big bastard Ye!
Luo Ning knew she would be targeted as soon as she returned, so she wasn't surprised that Ye appeared at the train station.
The next step after picking them up is a trap, but Luo Ning is not one to be trifled with.
She wouldn't let Ye Yi provoke her again, so she informed Liu Yingge in advance that she was going to return and asked her to pass on the news to her family and friends.
However, Jin Huan's appearance was not part of her plan.
And so, what started as a small welcome dinner for three people turned into a large welcome dinner for many people.
Moreover, most of the people were Luo Ning's friends and family. Ye was weak and alone, and her friends and family would not agree to her causing trouble.
Even if Ye had made arrangements in advance, the involvement of so many people would disrupt her plans.
However, caution is always the best policy, and Luo Ning didn't want to be caught off guard, so she reminded herself not to underestimate her opponent.
Feeling completely comfortable, Xie Chang'an took Luo Ning's bag and placed it next to him. He then took out a handful of sunflower seeds from his pocket and placed them in Luo Ning's hand, saying, "Wife, have some first!"
"Mmm!" Luo Ning happily ate the sunflower seeds that Xie Chang'an had peeled, thinking they were great.
"Sunflower seeds won't fill you up. Just wait a moment and the main dishes will be served. I specially asked the owner to cook, I guarantee you'll be satisfied!" That's a lie! Ye said calmly, his words revealing Luo Ning's ravenous nature.
The onlookers understood the unspoken meaning and collectively began to subtly criticize Ye.
"I suppose Political Commissar Ye hasn't heard the saying, 'Love makes even water taste sweet.' The sunflower seeds Luo Ning is eating aren't ordinary sunflower seeds; they were peeled for her one by one by my brother Chang'an! Luo Ning loves sunflower seeds, but she's too lazy to peel them, so my brother Chang'an peels them for her."
Qiangzi ran into the room, dropped his umbrella, and searched everywhere for a spot.
A fine line suddenly appeared on Ye's face. She couldn't imagine that someone as proud as Xie Chang'an would be so humble as to peel melon seeds for Luo Ning.
Qiangzi's words overturned her understanding of Xie Chang'an, and deepened her hatred for Luo Ning.
Ling's face darkened slightly; he had been by Luo Ning's side for so long but had no idea that Luo Ning would eat sunflower seeds.
He's a hopeless good-for-nothing!
Liu Yingge's eyes sparkled. Chang'an is so romantic! If only her husband were this romantic.
Battalion Commander Xie is really good to Luo Ning, and Jin Huan is a little envious.
The other male colleagues collectively said they had learned something and took notes.
Qiangzi had no idea that his words had caused so much of a stir among the crowd, and he casually sat down in the empty seat next to Liu Yingge.
"How did you come?"
