He wanted to see her true self, but Su Lianxi was unwilling to show any loss of composure in front of him.
Ning Yichen understood her desire to present her most perfect self in front of him, so he never minded it. However, seeing Su Zixi’s natural expression at this moment, he suddenly felt a bit of regret.
Su Lianxi noticed Ning Yichen’s distraction, and quietly grasped his wrist with a slight displeasure, “Yichen.”
Ning Yichen came back to his senses, turned his head, and saw Su Lianxi’s charming face, feeling reassured.
Lianxi was his responsibility. No matter what she was like, he could never let her down.
Thinking of this, he smiled slightly, “Want to eat some shrimp? I’ll peel it for you.”
Su Lianxi immediately beamed like a flower, “Mm.”
Ning Yichen rolled up his shirt sleeves and picked up a shrimp from the plate.
The most important thing was that she did not want to appear so pathetic.
Su Zixi suddenly spoke, “Dad, I need to go back to work on a report, I’ll be leaving first.”
Su Guo’an frowned, “You haven’t had much to eat yet.”
“Yeah, sister,” Su Lianxi chimed in with a smile, “Yichen and I have ordered a table full of delicacies and a bottle of 1982 Lafite. You really should join us.”
As soon as her words fell, the door of the private room was suddenly pushed open from the outside. A manager in a uniform apologized to Ning Yichen, “Mr. Ning, I am sorry, but the 1982 Lafite you previously reserved is no longer available.”
Ning Yichen frowned, “What happened? I paid the deposit!”
Su Lianxi was also displeased. She had just flaunted in front of Su Zixi, and now the manager said it was out of stock, wasn’t this slapping her in the face?
The manager nodded and bowed, “I am truly sorry, there was a bit of a mishap... We’ll compensate you double for the deposit, and also offer you a bottle of 1986 Lafite. Although the 1986 Lafite isn’t as prestigious as the 1982, it is still quite good. Would this be acceptable?”
Ning Yichen said in a deep voice, “No need. Since you mentioned a mishap, what exactly happened?”
The manager looked troubled, “Mr. Ning, please don’t make this difficult for me...”
“Did someone offer a higher price?” Ning Yichen said displeasedly, “I’ll pay double.”
