Chapter 726 - Mo Xicheng, I Like You (3) (1/2)

Shi Nianyao cooperated seamlessly, “Oh, Chief Editor Lian Lian, what a coincidence! Fancy running into you here. Let’s eat together!”

Shen Liangchuan was quite flabbergasted.

Mo Xicheng: …

Did these two women take them for fools?

Would Shi Nianyao come for hotpot here alone?

Besides, that fake greeting… This was Hengdian, the capital city of drama.

The corners of Shen Liangchuan’s mouth curved upwards into a slight smile. Now he understood why the woman had been pestering him for an answer as to what they were having for dinner.

As for Mo Xicheng…

His expression darkened the moment he saw Shi Nianyao.

He was a gloomy person to begin with, but now he looked even more abstruse.

He tensed his chin and, although he had not said anything, his body language suggested that he had suddenly distanced himself.

When Qiao Lian observed this, she immediately understood what Shi Nianyao meant.

It seemed that Mo Xicheng… wasn’t too welcoming towards Shi Nianyao.

However, his upbringing had also taught him not to reject a girl and embarrass her. Hence, he said nothing and merely kept a distance. He gave her a nod of acknowledgment before heading into the private room.

Shi Nianyao opened her mouth in a motion to say something, but before she could do so, he was gone…

Leaving the words stuck in her throat.

Looking hurt, she frowned as she looked at his disappearing figure wistfully.

In the private room.

Because it was only the four of them, the room wasn’t a very big one.

Tastefully decorated in a traditional theme, there were only four chairs, two in a row.

Qiao Lian and Shen Liangchuan walked into the room and saw that Mo Xicheng had sat down.

She hurriedly tugged at Shen Liangchuan and took a section for them. Raising her eyebrows and glancing at Shi Nianyao, she tried not to be too obvious about her intentions to create an opportunity for the two.

Shi Nianyao walked over and sat next to Mo Xicheng.
