Chapter 322 - So Many Coincidences (2/2)
“My friend cancelled on me. Now, I’m the only one left. Would you mind adding another pair of chopsticks?” She spoke easily and smiled.
Shen Xinglan and A Miao looked at each other, and nodded reluctantly.
“Sit down, Miss Li!” A Miao smiled faintly. She did not want to make friends with a person who had caused her to have a car accident, not to mention that this woman was coming for her man now…
But, in order not to arouse her suspicion, she had to invite her to take a seat.
“Are you Yaya?” Li Nian sat down and said hello to Yaya. “You look so cute!”
Yaya blinked her eyes and said softly, “Aunt, you are so beautiful!”
“Hahh! Well…” Li Nian covered her mouth and laughed. “You are a smart kid.”
When she said this, she glanced discreetly at A Miao. A Miao pretended not to notice her behavior.
Her purpose was to irritate A Miao by showing how good Yaya’s attitude was toward her. But she did not know that Yaya had been taught well. When someone praised Yaya’s beauty, Yaya would politely praise that person too.
“What does Yaya like to eat?” Li Nian continued to irritate A Miao. “Aunt will help you with the fish, okay?”
“No, thank you!” Yaya shook her head. “Aunt, you eat it yourself. My mother will help me take it.”
After saying that, she poked her head out of the chair. “Mom, Mom!”
A Miao wiped her mouth and lowered her head to kiss her. Shen Xinglan then put the choice fish into Yaya’s small bowl, and the rest in A Miao’s bowl.
“She can’t eat that. You have it!”
A Miao secretly pinched Shen Xinglan, and warned him with her eyes.
“That’s enough, or she will doubt us.”
“Rest assured. I have a sense of propriety.”
The behavior of the three members of the family was witnessed by Li Nian, and her heart was filled with anger. Her nails pierced into her palms, and the pain reminded her to calm down.
“Director Shen.” Li Nian took a few deep breaths, calmed down and continued. “Have you read the business plan for the last cooperation?”
“Miss Li, I don’t talk about business when I am having a meal with my family.” Shen Xinglan glanced at her lightly. “If you have something to discuss, you can make an appointment to talk about it at my office.”
After hearing him mentioning his family, Li Nian really wanted to splash coffee on A Miao’s face, and then was surprised that he was asking her to meet in the office to talk about the plan.
“Well, tomorrow then!” She stood up and said, “I won’t disturb you. I’ll see you tomorrow morning!”
After that, she smiled at A Miao, and did not forget to say goodbye to Yaya. Then she turned around and left. She did not want to leave, but she was afraid she would not be able to control herself, if she continued to sit there.
Yaya suddenly said, “Mom, will you be going to Dad’s company tomorrow!”
A Miao touched her head. “Why should I go to Dad’s company?”
“Didn’t you just hear Dad say he will meet that aunt? He’s going to see a woman behind your back.” Yaya’s plump face was serious.
Shen Xinglan pinched her nose. “Yaya, what did you say?”
Yaya buried her head in A Miao’s arms and said in a muffled voice. “Yaya did not say anything!”
A Miao laughed and caught the little fellow out. “Okay, we’ll go to the amusement park if you’re full. You’ll be sleepy later.”
The amusement park was very large and belonged to a national well-known chain brand. Although it was not a weekend, there were still a lot of people.
“Yaya can only play here.” A Miao held a map of the park and said, “The other places are for people over 10 years old.”
Shen Xinglang rented a battery car, sat in the driver’s seat and looked at the map. “We will go around from the top. We can’t play, but we can watch them.”
Yaya was very happy to see them, especially the water play facility that made people rush into the water from a high place. She enjoyed that very much. She giggled and clapped her hands when she saw others getting soaked.
“Let’s go and play at the merry-go-round. A Miao pointed to the front, which was a children’s playground. The huge merry-go-round was spinning around, accompanied by music.
Yaya held Shen Xinglan in one hand and A Miao in the other. “I want to sit on it with Dad and Mom!”
“Of course!” A Miao picked her up and put her in the carriage. “Yaya and Mom will sit behind and Dad will ride in front, okay?”
Yaya was jumping happily on the carriage. “Dad, hurry up, ride quickly!”
She thought the carriage would move once Shen Xinglan sat on it.
“OK! Sit down and let’s get ready to go.”
Yaya went on the merry-go-round three times. Shen Xinglan had to tell her that there were still some interesting rides ahead, or she would not come down. There was a souvenir shop nearby. Yaya wanted a beautiful hat inside.
“Let’s go in and have a look.” Shen Xinglan picked his daughter up and tried to pull A Miao with one hand. A Miao avoided his hand.
A Miao said, “It might cause a problem if someone sees us.”
Shen Xinglan became unhappy. “Then you can’t stay too far away from me.”
“I will hold Yaya!” A Miao grabbed Yaya’s little hand and smiled at the man.
At this time, a lot of people appeared in the shop, and Shen Xinglan rushed to look after his daughter. He took advantage of the large number of people there to give A Miao a hug.
But A Miao suddenly screamed.
“What happened?”
A Miao shook her head quickly. “It’s all right. Let’s go in first and talk about it.”
After they went into the store, Shen Xinglan stared at her.
“It’s scratched.” A Miao raised her right hand.
There was an obvious wound at the back of her hand. It seemed to have been scratched by something sharp.
Shen Xinglan frowned and looked for an adhesive bandage. At this time, A Miao screamed again.
“I have an idea!”
