Chapter 783: Your Boyfriend is Here!
Zhang Lingying said everything in one breath, completely dumbfounding Leng Jian.
He just wanted to remind her that Lu Jing was unreliable and that if she was to choose a lifelong partner, she should consider it carefully.
But for some reason, by the end of their conversation, he couldn’t shake off the feeling that he had ulterior motives toward Zhang Lingying and had slandered Lu Jing on purpose in front of her...
Leng Jian was momentarily at a loss for words.
He stared at her for several seconds, unable to detect any hint of jest on her face.
Instead, seeing that he wasn’t speaking, Zhang Lingying assumed he agreed and continued to bury her head in her meal.
Halfway through eating, she remembered her bold statement about pampering him forever and grabbed some meat for his bowl, "Eat more, you’re too thin!"
That’s how it always happened on TV.
To care for someone, you should start by caring for their stomach.
She thought that doting on him like this would make him happy... right?
After adding the meat, Zhang Lingying cautiously glanced at him.
Meeting her gaze, Leng Jian came back to his senses and looked down at the meat she had just added to his bowl.
He had been distracted and hadn’t heard clearly what she said while adding the meat, but seeing that she cared about him not eating, he hesitated for a second, picked up his chopsticks, and put the meat into his mouth.
"Is it good?" Zhang Lingying promptly asked.
Leng Jian, who was not fussy about food and knowing that the restaurant he had chosen could not be bad, subconsciously hummed in approval.
Hearing that he liked it, Zhang Lingying immediately added more different dishes to his bowl.
Once she started, she couldn’t stop.
In just a few short minutes, Leng Jian’s bowl was piled so high with the food she added that it could block half of his face.
"There’s no more room, you eat this first, then I’ll add more," Zhang Lingying said, still not satisfied.
Leng Jian: "..."
Seeing that he wasn’t eating, Zhang Lingying immediately worried and asked, "Did I add something you don’t like?"
Leng Jian: "..."
He just wasn’t used to it.
No one had ever pampered him like a little princess like she did.
He had lived alone for a long time, even when with Ji Weitian and Little Glutinous Rice Dumpling, it was he who took care of them more.
Zhang Lingying’s sudden pampering was a bit too much for him to handle.
"The food I added to your bowl, you don’t have to eat it all, just leave what you don’t like in the bowl," Zhang Lingying, unable to read Leng Jian’s thoughts and still worried that he hadn’t had enough to eat, explained.
Just after she finished speaking, her phone rang.
It was none other than her arch-nemesis – Lu Jing.
Seeing the caller ID, Zhang Lingying didn’t hesitate to hang up.
She switched her phone to vibrate mode and stuffed it into her bag.
Out of sight, out of mind!
She couldn’t let a jerk like Lu Jing ruin her rare holiday...
Zhang Lingying thought to herself.
But when she looked up and saw the familiar figure at the entrance of the restaurant, she felt like she was seeing things, blinking madly.
Her weird behavior caught Leng Jian’s attention.
"Is there something wrong with your eyes?"
"...No, I think I just saw a ghost in broad daylight," Zhang Lingying blurted out.
Hearing this, Leng Jian frowned slightly, turned his head to follow her gaze, and saw Lu Jing entering the restaurant, his eyes narrowing slightly.
His instinct told him that Lu Jing’s appearance here was no coincidence.
It wasn’t long before a waiter led Lu Jing up to them and, looking at Zhang Lingying, said, "Miss Zhang, your boyfriend is here."
