Chapter 509: Snipped a Segment of Flickering Light and Shadow
However curious she was, Shi Nuan didn’t dare to ask much.
Everyone has their own space and secrets, and Song Yansheng certainly understood many of her feelings.
But he had never proactively asked her anything about Shen Zui, or about Xiao Chuan.
In this regard, they should show mutual respect.
On Wednesday, Shi Nuan worked at the Shi Family in the morning, and took a leave during her lunch break.
This afternoon, Lv Nan Nan had her thesis defense, and she had already agreed with He Meisui and Ou Xiaoning to go cheer for Lv Nan Nan.
Although in their hearts, the diligent student Lv Nan Nan would certainly pass the defense without any issues this time.
Song Yansheng offered to arrange a car to take her, but she saw Song Yansheng’s figure in the car he arranged.
The man wasn’t wearing a suit jacket, just a white shirt, not even having his tie on.
He sat with a gentle smile in the back seat, with a folder by his side, making Shi Nuan believe that before she came downstairs, Song Yansheng had been dealing with some documents.
The car door was opened by the driver, and the man reached out a hand to Shi Nuan. The warm sunlight made his slender and beautiful fingers appear almost translucent.
It also cast a stream of flowing light on the small rolled-up section of his forearm.
This version of Song Yansheng indeed evoked warmth; if he weren’t the business genius Song Yansheng, one might think he was a scholarly gentleman.
Her hand reached up, held by his as Shi Nuan bent to get into the car. As the door closed, he said, "The thesis defense is in the afternoon. Having lunch with Nuannuan shouldn’t be a problem, right?"
Of course, it wasn’t a problem. She hadn’t arranged to have lunch with He Meisui and the others, but had agreed to celebrate dinner together.
The car started, quickly leaving the Shi Building behind. On the way, Song Yansheng didn’t ask Shi Nuan what she wanted to eat. In fact, there was no need to ask, as he already knew her preferences.
They had a brief conversation, and soon the car stopped at the entrance of a Chinese restaurant.
The restaurant was luxuriously and retro styled. Shi Nuan had been there once or twice before, and the food was quite good.
Moreover, the dishes were carefully designed for their medicinal properties, providing nourishment alongside nutrition, making it a fine choice for dining.
The two quickly got out of the car. Song Yansheng held Shi Nuan’s hand as they entered the restaurant.
Apparently, prior arrangements had been made, as a man who looked like a manager quickly came forward to greet them, friendly but not annoying.
Quite well-trained.
The reserved private room was very large, and as the manager led them inside, he soon left. Song Yansheng led Shi Nuan to sit at the dining table.
Taking in the impressive crystal walls around her, Shi Nuan felt a bit of extravagance. For just a meal, was all this necessary?
Song Yansheng said, "This restaurant was opened by a friend of mine. He always asked me to patronize, but I couldn’t find the time. Today I brought Nuannuan here, and didn’t expect him to arrange something so luxurious. If Nuannuan feels uncomfortable, I can ask the manager to change the room for us!"
Shi Nuan thought that Song Yansheng’s friend might be trying to curry favor with Song Yansheng, which was why the arrangement was made like this. If they changed it just because she mentioned it, wouldn’t they be letting down his kind intentions?
Besides, she felt that this private room might not even be often booked by others, signifying the importance to Song Yansheng. If they didn’t use it this noon, perhaps no one else would.
She shook her head and said, "No need, this is quite nice!"
The dishes were pre-ordered, so not long after they sat down, they were served one by one.
Each one was exquisite, visually tempting enough to increase her appetite immensely!
