Summer Kiss

Chapter 200 Watch the show

Fu Xicheng glanced over casually, his hand resting on Jiang Yuning's waist, a faint smile playing on his lips. "Guess?"

Jiang Yuning glanced at him. She wasn't the type to make unfounded guesses, especially not about something like this.

She brushed Fu Xicheng's hand away from her waist and focused on the food in front of her.

Fu Xicheng suddenly raised an eyebrow; he couldn't believe that Jiang Yuning had no curiosity whatsoever.

"Ningning, don't you want to know?"

Jiang Yuning had already taken a bite of the food and found that the dishes here were indeed quite good.

She shook her head, her tone indifferent, "I don't want to know now. I'm going back to work after I finish eating."

Fu Xicheng: "..."

Upon hearing this, Fu Xicheng was speechless. He opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

He thought to himself that his girlfriend was acting strangely today; he clearly remembered that she was usually very curious.

He slowly sat down beside her and revealed the answer himself.

"This hotel isn't mine. I heard from Xie Linzhou a while ago that the environment here is nice, so I thought I'd bring you here to try it out."

Jiang Yuning raised her eyelids, her watery eyes carrying a hint of playful amusement, "I don't need to guess, didn't you just say it yourself?"

Fu Xicheng was helpless. He was just worried that his girlfriend would be angry, after all, he didn't want to be hit by her again.

If he could maintain a record of not getting hit for a day, perhaps he could boast to her about it.

He said in a flattering tone, "Ningning, isn't this just to satisfy your curiosity? How could someone as gentle and considerate as me let this bother you?"

Jiang Yuning did not respond, but lowered her head and continued eating.

Seeing that she ignored him, Fu Xicheng said again, "There are still two dishes that haven't been served yet. Don't eat too much, or you won't be able to enjoy those two dishes."

Jiang Yuning reached out, pretending to punch Fu Xicheng.

Fu Xicheng quickly dodged, putting some distance between himself and Jiang Yuning. "I'll go and urge them when those two dishes will be served."

Fu Xicheng left the private room like a whirlwind, his steps so hurried it was as if someone was chasing him.

Jiang Yuning lowered her head and chuckled. She had only been bluffing him, not really intending to hit him. Besides, he had just recovered from a serious illness, so how could she bring herself to do it?

Even when you hit someone, it's with very light force.

Jiang Yuning ate a couple of bites of food and then put down her chopsticks. She planned to wait for Fu Xicheng to come back so they could have a proper meal together.

Fu Xicheng walked to the center of the corridor, where there was a service desk.

He stood in front of the service counter and asked the waiter when the food would be served.

After asking the question, he turned around and saw Meng Tingchuan pulling and tugging at a woman.

Fu Xicheng stroked his chin with a half-smile, then whistled with great interest.

The whistle sounded particularly abrupt in the corridor.

Hearing the whistle, Meng Tingchuan looked in the direction of the sound and saw Fu Xicheng standing not far away, enjoying the scene with great interest.

Meng Tingchuan frowned, his expression showing annoyance and impatience. He forcefully pushed the woman away and said coldly, "Miss Shen, please have some self-respect."

Shen Ling'an burst into tears, her voice choked with sobs, "Tingchuan, I regret it. I shouldn't have let go back then." As she said this, her eyes were filled with sorrow and reluctance, and her tears fell like broken beads.

Meng Tingchuan didn't want to hear her explanation at all. He recalled that they had been in love for three years in college and had countless sweet moments during those three years.

But who would have thought that she would so resolutely give him up after graduation? Today, when we ran into her by chance while discussing a collaboration, she had the nerve to try and get close to him, saying that they were classmates before.

Meng Tingchuan never acknowledged their relationship.

At this moment, Shen Ling'an still held Meng Tingchuan's hand tightly, showing no intention of letting go.

Seeing this, Fu Xicheng immediately decided to help Meng Tingchuan.

He strode forward and forcefully separated the two people who were tightly entangled.

He pushed the woman in front of him aside and gave Meng Tingchuan a suggestion.

"Meng Tingchuan, what's the point of being gentle with a woman like this? Don't show her any mercy, or she'll keep bothering you next time."

Meng Tingchuan's eyes flickered slightly. He didn't speak, but stood there silently, his expression unreadable.

Fu Xicheng continued, "Weren't you going to treat Ningning to dinner? How about tonight?"

Meng Tingchuan nodded and uttered a single word, "Okay."

On the other side, Jiang Yuning waited in the private room for a long time, but Fu Xicheng did not return. She was a little anxious, so she went out of the private room to find out what was going on. Soon, she caught sight of Fu Xicheng.

She saw Meng Tingchuan there, and walked over to him, saying softly, "Brother Meng, you're here too."

Upon hearing Jiang Yuning's voice, Meng Tingchuan's previously cold expression softened considerably, and he said gently, "Yuning."

Shen Ling'an stared at the woman standing next to Meng Tingchuan, pointing at him with a crazed look in her eyes.

"Tingchuan, is it because of this woman that you said you didn't know me?"

“I’ve been with you for three years, how can you just forget me like that, Tingchuan? These days, many young and beautiful women are thinking of using improper relationships to climb the social ladder, so you have to be careful.”

Fu Xicheng's eyes were cold and stern as he looked down at the woman with deep disdain.

Without saying a word, he kicked the woman over without hesitation.

"Who do you think you are, daring to slander my girlfriend? I think you don't want to live anymore."

Upon hearing the woman's words, Jiang Yuning seemed to understand what was going on.

The woman in front of me is probably the one that Shuyu mentioned before.

She tugged at Fu Xicheng's arm and whispered, "Fu Xicheng, don't meddle in other people's business. Let's go back to the private room."

Fu Xicheng always listened to his girlfriend, so he went back to the private room with her.

The moment she closed the door, Jiang Yuning asked with a half-smile, "Fu Xicheng, I've noticed you quite enjoy watching the excitement."

Fu Xicheng raised an eyebrow at her, a faint smile in his eyes. "It depends on the person. Meng Tingchuan used to like hanging around you. Today we just happened to run into him, so it would be a shame not to watch his antics."

Jiang Yuning chuckled softly, thinking to herself, "It seems Fu Xicheng is quite jealous of Meng Tingchuan."

This Fu Xicheng usually appears calm and composed in front of her, but when it comes to Meng Tingchuan, he seems to become a completely different person, and that sour feeling involuntarily surfaces.

She said, "Let's eat first."
