Chapter 464 He Wanted To Be On The Bench?!
Xia Ning looked at Qiao Yu in surprise. How did he know what she was thinking?
“I knew a little about your beef with the Shen family. It was not my intention to eavesdrop today. But I hope next time I can hear them from you.” Qiao Yu looked at Xia Ning and curled his lips. “So it’s not like you don’t care about me at all, right?”
Xia Ning’s hands clenched suddenly. Did she care about him? She held her breath a little. Where did he get the confidence to think that she cared about him?
“Xia Ning, I know you need time. I’m willing to wait till you figure out who’s the person who can really be with you.” Qiao Yu looked at her with somewhat sulky eyes.
Who’s the person who can really be with her? Xia Ning stared at Qiao Yu with confusion. What did he mean?
“What secret are you talking about over there? It’s time for lunch.” Gao Wanhua’s voice sounded suddenly.
Qiao Yu darted a look at Xia Ning. “Let’s go eat.” As he spoke, he turned around to walk to the table.
Xia Ning looked at Qiao Yu’s back and frowned a little. She started to think about what he meant just now. Suddenly, she remembered their talk last night. Her expression turned awkward. So he didn’t mind that she has a boyfriend? Was he willing to be on the bench for her?!
Was this person really Qiao Yu? At this moment, Xia Ning was doubtful.
Xia Ning saw the man who sat down at the table and breathed slightly. She then walked straight over.
After lunch, Xia Ning took Enoch to nap. After he fell deep asleep, she left the room.
Qiao Yu was working in the study on the third floor. Xia Ning was a bit bored so she decided to take a walk downstairs.
When she got down, she saw Gao Wanhua watching TV on the sofa by herself. The coffee and the fruits on the coffee table was not touched at all.
She was not that old but her husband passed away at an early age. Her son was so quiet, grandson so young. When it quieted down, she definitely looked lonely.
Sensing someone walking down, Gao Wanhua turned around. She saw Xia Ning so she got up and said with a smile, “Is Enoch asleep?”
“Yup.” Xia Ning nodded and walked to the sofa.
“Have a seat,” Gao Wanhua said to Xia Ning.”What do you want to drink? I’ll have people get it.”
“I can get it myself.”
“Don’t be so polite,” Gao Wanhua sat down and said with a smile. “Maid Wang can get what you want. Sit please.”
“Coffee then. Thanks.” Xia Ning nodded and sat down.
Gao Wanhua said with a smile, “Black coffee with no sugar, right?”
Xia Ning looked at Gao Wanhua with surprise. How did she know?
Knowing what Xia Ning was thinking, Gao Wanhua answered, “You grew up abroad, so you must have a taste similar to people abroad. After lunch, Yu told me you don’t like sweets. I remembered I was asking you to eat all kinds of sweets in the morning. Sorry about that.”
“No worries. My taste is not always the same,” Xia Ning said with a smile. But she was shocked inside, not expecting Qiao Yu to be so meticulous.
Seeing Xia Ning’s calm face, Gao Wanhua sighed and said, “This son of mine is used to burying everything in his heart. He must have made you go through a lot.”
Xia Ning lowered her head and did not speak. The past was the past. No need to mention it.
Gao Wanhua looked at Xia Ning and said in a low voice, “I also don’t want to use the child to keep you. But Xia Ning, Enoch needs a mother. He...”
Just at this time, Xia Ning’s phone rang. Xia Ning threw an apologetic smile at Gao Wanhua and picked it up. She stood up to walk to the window.
“Hello, Jin Yan!”
At the airport, there were a lot of fans shouting out loud. A certain handsome star was hiding in the corner with his sunglasses, making a call.
“Xiao Ke, I’m back in S City. Let’s have dinner together!”
