Chapter 992 - Sweetness (2/2)

An Feng regained her senses and found that everyone was looking at her, including Helian Xiao.

He was leaning against the chair with his legs crossed, holding a cigarette between his fingers. His gaze was deep, steady and elegant, and there was a smile on his lips which could make people’s heart beat faster looking at it.

Helian Xiao did not stand up. He glanced at An Feng slightly before he looked away to continue his conversation with Mu Sihan, as if An Feng was a stranger whom he had met for the first time.

An Feng put aside her complicated thoughts and said to Nan Zhi, “Let’s go in!”

This was a private dinner and there was no segregation of statuses, only elders and juniors.

An Feng sat together with Helian Xiao, while Nan Zhi and Mu Sihan sat on the other side.

After ordering food, Helian Xiao chatted with Nan Zhi. Mu Sihan did not like Nan Zhi to be overly warm with other men, so he pinched her hand under the table.

Nan Zhi immediately held his hand, her fingertips writing a few soothing words on his palm.

Helian Xiao looked at the young people opposite and a smile appeared on his handsome and elegant face. “I hope to enjoy your wedding sweets soon.”

Mu Sihan and Nan Zhi looked at each other and he said, “Soon enough, she will be the Princess Consort of S Country.”

His voice was low and magnetic, and the words ‘Princess Consort’ coming out from his mouth were spoken with an unspeakable s.e.xiness.

Nan Zhi’s heart was throbbing.

Looking at how loving and sweet they were, An Feng felt happy for them in her heart. Although there was Helian Xiao whom she disliked beside her, her mood still turned better.

While the others were chatting, she would also speak a little. But every time, she would not pick up the thread of conversation from Helian Xiao.

She was deliberately drawing the line with him. If there was an outsider, he would surely think that she was not familiar with Helian Xiao. But Nan Zhi and Mu Sihan were shrewd people, they could feel the strange atmosphere between An Feng and Helian Xiao.

As they were chatting, Nan Zhi suddenly said, “Mom, I’m going to get married soon. Do you really not think of having a person by your side to take care of you in the future?”

Mu Sihan then continued, “Mom, the Dean of the Royal Hospital asked about you from me a few days ago.”

Furrowing her brows, An Feng glared at the two of them. They were having dinner, why were they suddenly bringing this up?

“Is it that new dean? I’ve seen his news interview, he’s just in his early forties! He looks talented and refined and seems like a good match to Mom!”

An Feng was speechless. Why were these two children getting more and more out of line?

Helian Xiao and Mu Sihan had drunk several gla.s.ses of white wine, but there were no signs on his face that he had drunk any wine. When he heard Nan Zhi and Mu Sihan’s words, he leaned his body against the chair, looking at the side of An Feng’s slightly embarra.s.sed face. “If Madam An isn’t interested in doctors, I have someone suitable for you on my side.”

Still frowning, An Feng looked sideways at the man.

With his arm resting on the back of the chair, his s.h.i.+rt was tight against his chest and his chest muscles and contours of his arm were perfectly outlined, looking strong and powerful.

An Feng looked away and met his eyes.

There was a hint of amus.e.m.e.nt in his eyes, but it disappeared quickly. His eyes were dark and unreadable.

There was often a smile on his face, but it was always the smile of a refined gentleman. People like him were poker-faced and it was difficult to see what they were thinking.

But his smile, coupled with his expression of sizing her up, made An Feng feel a little nervous, as if she had done something wrong and was caught.

“I’m going to the washroom.” An Feng wiped her mouth, stood up and left.

…

In the washroom, An Feng took out her phone and sent a message to Ah Hua.

Ah Hua was still in the neighboring country. He replied and said that he would get the results in the afternoon.

An Feng breathed a sigh of relief. If both results were the same, she would be a hundred percent sure that Helian Xiao was not the person from that year.

As she put her phone back into her bag, all of a sudden, the door to the washroom was pushed open and a man strode in.
