Chapter 143 (2/2)
Qiao Anran's eyes trembled slightly. She seemed to have no waves. In fact, she was trying her best to restrain her emotions. She squeezed her hands under the table into a fist and watched Gu Nancheng walking in her direction. The man in front of her coincided with the person in her memory.
Finally, I saw him.
She almost blurted out and called him brother Nancheng, but she knew she was no longer qualified to do so.
Seeing Fu Jingjing walking towards Gu Nancheng, Qiao Anran only felt that the two people were together. They really matched each other.
There was a sour feeling in her heart. Her face didn't change and she didn't speak.
Fu Siming's face changed at that time and took Qiao Anran's hand to leave. But she sat still.
Gu Nancheng looked at Qiao Anran with probing eyes, but the other party didn't face him.
At this time, Fu Jingjing said, ”brother, did you have any misunderstanding with brother Nancheng last time in the hospital? It's just that everyone is here today. Let's have dinner together. I've said everything. Friends shouldn't hold grudges. Anyway, brother Nancheng cares about his sister-in-law... ”
Fu Siming ignored Fu Qingqing's words. His narrow eyes glanced at Qiao Anran's look and found that her look had not changed.
Qiao Anran slowly raised her eyes, smiled and said, ”doctor Gu, long time no see.”
Although she was greeting him in a very calm tone, just like an ordinary person, Gu Nancheng always felt wrong.
If she were ye Huanyan, she should know him right away. Why talk to him in such an unfamiliar tone?
He just suspected that Qiao Anran might be ye Huanyan, but there was no other evidence to prove that he was not sure that his suspicion was right.
He sat down, smiled back and said to Qiao Anran, ”long time no see.”
His eyes lingered on her face for a few seconds, trying to find a flaw in her look, but he failed.
Fu Siming realized that Qiao Anran didn't intend to meet Gu Nancheng, and his face gradually eased.
Even though Gu Nancheng was suspicious, there was no evidence. If he showed an unhappy look, it would make people suspicious.
He waved to the waiter and calmly began to order.
He pushed the menu to Joan ran. ”What would you like to eat?”
”Everything is fine.” She pushed the menu back. It was doomed that the dinner would not be so delicious.
After ordering, the atmosphere fell into silence again.
Joan's look was as unchanged as it had been at the beginning.
Fu Siming picked up his knife and fork, cut the steak into small pieces, pushed it in front of her and said, ”eat.”
She glanced at him faintly, didn't refuse, and naturally forked a piece into her mouth.
Gu Nancheng didn't see a flaw, but he still felt something wrong. Obviously she asked Lu Wanzhi to give him a message. How come she didn't respond at all after seeing him?
He asked tentatively, ”are you in good health?”
Qiao Anran didn't look at him and calmly replied, ”it's almost good.”
Fu Jingjing timely added: ”sister-in-law, in fact, brother Nancheng is worried about you. He has always been afraid of whether you will leave any sequelae, but he can't see you...”
Speaking of this, she silently looked at Fu Siming's expression. He hasn't spoken much since the beginning. This dinner is somewhat embarrassing.
She felt that she would be taught a lesson by him when she went back. After all, she put him together today.
Gu Nancheng darkened his eyes and asked Qiao Anran again, ”are you really all right?”
He asked intentionally or unintentionally, hoping that Joan ran could understand the hint in his words.
But she didn't even lift her head or look at him. She lowered her head and smiled and said, ”what can I do for you? I'm lucky this time. I survived. It's all right... ”
She tried to make her tone sound like a joke and planned to bring the topic over.
Gu Nancheng still thinks that Qiao Anran really has something to say to him, otherwise she won't let Lu Wanzhi bring him a message for no reason.
But now that the Fu family's brothers and sisters are present, he can't ask her directly in person.
And... He could clearly feel that Joan ran was deliberately avoiding him.
This dinner made several people feel bad. Only Fu Jingjing didn't realize anything.
She only said that the extremely quiet atmosphere was because the contradictions between brother and sister-in-law and between brother and Gu Nancheng could not be completely resolved. She thought it would be better in a while.
Until the end of dinner, Joan ran didn't say a word.
Out of the restaurant, Fu Siming glanced back at Gu Nancheng intentionally or unintentionally. Then he loosened Qiao Anran's hand and grabbed her waist the next moment.
