Chapter 697: Testing the Waters, Would You Like to Eat Some
y why Wang Yang put layer upon layer of protection in place.Li Boheng's lips curled into a sneer, but his eyes held no warmth. His voice was calm yet cruel, "If you want to protect Li Zhen, then inves...He stood tall and straight, his bespoke suit hugging his perfect figure. Every gesture he made exuded an air of nobility and coldness that overshadowed everything around him.
How did Li Bochen come back again
Luo Ningxi thought, nervously clenching the test report in her hand, turned her head without hesitation and prepared to go back from the underground garage.
Ke just took a few steps when he was stopped by Li Bochen's low voice, "Luoningxi, where do you think you're going"
Li Bochen hadn't planned on pestering Luo Ningxi, but just as he had calmed down, he received a text from Mo Yao. Luo Ningxi had come to the hospital again!
Does gastroenteritis require hospitalization every few days
Luo Ningxi's footsteps came to a halt. She reluctantly turned her head and put on a forced smile, "What a coincidence, Shao Si. You're sick too"
"Ironically, I came here specifically to find you."
In a word, Luo Ningxi's heartstrings tightened abruptly, "You came to find me on purpose What for"
"I heard... you haven't been feeling well lately"
Li Bochen's tone was sharp, his ancient-looking cold eyes unfathomable as he slowly gazed at Lu Ningxi's abdomen, as if trying to see through everything!
“Mr. Li, tracking and investigating others is illegal. I have the right to call the police.” Luo Ningxi calmly raised her lips, but her heart was racing to escape, “However, considering our long friendship, I’ll let it slide this time. I have something to attend to, so I'll take my leave...”
"Wait."
Before Lu Ningxi could slip away, Li Botong grabbed her by the nape of her neck and pulled her back. "There have been some developments in the investigation of the incident in the suburbs earlier. Let's find a place to talk"
"What about the follow-up on the investigation in the suburbs" Luo Ningxi raised her eyes in surprise and asked urgently, "Did you find evidence that Mu Xiyin hurt your dad"
Ke Li Bochen, however, simply curled his lips and said softly, "I haven't eaten yet. Let's find a place to have something to eat first, and then talk about it."
“ ”
Luningxi secretly patted her chest for reassurance.
If it was just about discussing matters concerning the suburbs, Li Bochen wouldn't have needed to make the trip himself. His persistence, chasing me even to the hospital, suggests he wants to test me.
It doesn't matter, meet force with force and water with earth. If he comes to test himself, then I can also turn the tables and make him give up.
"Well, I actually wanted to have a good chat with you, Shao Si."
Luningxi obediently sat in the passenger seat of the Rolls-Royce.
The car was very quiet.
Li Boche looked at Luo Ningxi's cold face through the car window, and a strange irritability suddenly surged in his heart.
He used to drive a small tram every day to pick up Lu Ningxi from work. Lu Ningxi would always chatter like a rabbit, non-stop about everything that happened at the company that day.
Now... he's become much more mature.
If I hadn't deceived her at the beginning, or if I hadn't drunk the drink the old man gave me, would things have turned out differently
At least she shouldn't have to be this cautious, even about something as simple as whether or not she's pregnant.
Luo Ningxi also felt the oppressive atmosphere in the car and, for the first time ever, asked, "Have you thought about where we're going to eat"
"Let's go to Yunlan." Li Bichen tightened his grip on the steering wheel. "I heard they updated their menu recently, it should suit your taste."
"Well then, let's give it a try. I haven't eaten yet either," Luo Ningxi casually nodded in agreement, but secretly leaned back against the chair and took out her phone to send a message to Xiao Jin, being prepared for some things beforehand.
The car quickly stopped at the entrance of Yunlan Hotel.
The waiter led them to a VIP room and respectfully presented the menu, smiling as he spoke.
"Mr. Si, Miss Luo, this is the latest updated menu of our restaurant. There are some new dishes and drinks inside, you can both try them."
Li Bochen nodded and turned his gaze to Luo Ningxi, speaking softly, "Order whatever you want, I'll treat you to this meal."
Lo Ningxi was also hungry.
These days, I've been so preoccupied with the things happening in the suburbs and the Su Qiao paint incident that I haven't even had a proper meal. So, I simply pursed my lips and smiled as I said, "I didn't want to put you out, but considering how illustrious Young Master Li is, he used to eat my food and use my things all the time. Now, it's only fair that he eats with me once in a while. It shouldn't be a big deal."
She doesn't spend his money, and he would still spend it on Jian Ningyi or Mu Xiyin. It's better for her to just be straightforward about it.
Luo Ningxi flipped through the menu in her hand, ordering all the dishes she wanted to eat.
"This pineapple-braised pork ribs, Chinese herb rabbit meat, deep-fried pork with sweet and sour sauce, three-flavor braised pot… And also this stuffed tomatoes, crispy pork soup, all please order a serving."
All are exquisite dishes.
Li Bochen stared at her silently, his cold eyes thoughtful.
After a moment, he suddenly spoke, "I remember you really liked eating crabs before. The crabs lately haven't been bad either, why don't we order some"
The waiter beside her also nodded solemnly and immediately chimed in, "Yes, Miss Luo, all our king crabs are airlifted, very fresh and guaranteed quality!"
If it were before, Lon Ningxi would definitely be moved, but now she secretly changed her face...
Crabs are cold foods and have the effect of activating blood and removing blood stasis. Pregnant women should avoid them at all costs!s skyrocketed." Luo Ningxi praised without reservation.Li Bochen raised an eyebrow and looked at her, his eyes twinkling with a myriad of emotions. "So, what do you want to do to me Hmm"Lu Ningxi didn...
