As soon as they entered the restaurant and sat down, Su Ning picked up the menu and quickly ordered.
After ordering, she seemed to have thought of something and said apologetically, “Ah, I forgot what you like to eat, Sister.”
Su Yu said indifferently, “It’s okay. I’m fine with anything!”
As she spoke, she raised her hand to look at the time.
‘Looking at the time, the agent should have already brought the prospective buyer there. If everything goes smoothly, the house can be sold today.’
The reason she stayed here was that she did not want Su Ning to delay the transaction.
After so many years, Su Ning did not even know her preferences and what she liked to eat. What was there for Su Yu to feel hesitant about?
At this moment, a waiter pushed a food cart over. There was a three-layered cake on it. On the cake was written with red cream ‘Happy Birthday.’
“Miss Su Yu, this is the birthday cake we prepared for you. Although it’s a day late, I still hope you like it!”
Su Yu was a little surprised. She instantly realized that Pei Tianlin must have ordered this for her.
She looked around but did not see Pei Tianlin.
“This fellow seems to always be by my side but he never shows up.”
Although she could not see him, it did not stop her from expressing her gratitude. She directly sent a message with her phone.
[Thank you!]
Pei Tianlin did not reply to her message yesterday, and he did not reply this time either.
However, Su Yu did not mind. It was fine as long as the other party knew her gratitude.
Su Ning looked at the tempting cake and asked in a sour tone, “Sister, which suitor of yours gave this to you? I’ve never heard of you having any suitors in the past! Could it be that Future Brother-in-law gave it to you?”
Lin Tianhao hurriedly waved his hand and said, “It wasn’t me. I wanted to give her a cake, but I missed the timing.”
Su Yu smiled indifferently and said meaningfully, “Maybe it’s really from your future brother-in-law!”
These words made Lin Tianhao’s expression look a little ugly. Su Ning was a little puzzled.
Lin Tianhao felt that he could not let this matter go just like that. It was a critical moment for him to win over Su Yu and obtain her shares. If he was intercepted halfway, he would really become a laughing stock.
“Yu Yu, you must know who sent the cake, right?”
Su Yu did not even raise her head and said indifferently, “Didn’t the waiter say that this cake is from the restaurant?”
Lin Tianhao stared at Su Yu for a while, then smiled again. He did not pursue the matter further.
He could only think of it in a positive way. Perhaps this restaurant belonged to a friend of Su Yu’s, so they gave her a cake after knowing that she was here?
At this moment, he could only comfort himself and forcefully explain the situation.
No one could tell what he was thinking.
At this moment, Su Yu’s phone rang again. She picked it up and saw that there was good news from the agent.
The prospective buyer was very satisfied with the house. They bought the house without bargaining. The contract could be signed now.
Su Yu was delighted. She did not care about Lin Tianhao and Su Ning anymore. She stood up and said, “I have something to attend to, so I’ll be leaving first. Enjoy your meal.”
After taking two steps, she turned around and said to the waiter, “Help me pack this cake and send it to my house.”
In the end, she said to Lin Tianhao and Su Ning, “This cake is too buttery, so you guys won’t like it. I’ll take it with me.”
When Su Ning heard this, she did not know what to say.
Lin Tianhao indeed did not like cakes, so he naturally did not object.
“Your sister seems to have changed, but I can’t tell what exactly about her has changed,” Lin Tianhao said slowly as he looked at Su Yu’s back.
“She canceled my credit cards.”
A look of deep thought flashed across Lin Tianhao’s eyes.
“I’m afraid she has already sensed something. We have to speed things up. However, I think she only sensed that something’s wrong. She probably doesn’t know about our relationship yet.”
Su Ning snorted and said, “So what if she knows? I’ve been waiting for that day.”
Su Yu originally thought that even if she wanted to sell the house, it would take at least a week. She was even willing to lower the price to expedite the process.
Unexpectedly, she had just listed it yesterday and it was sold today. The buyer did not even try to bargain. It was simply too satisfying.
She then thought of the cake that Pei Tianlin gave her and was in a good mood.
Although she was very sad about her sister and Lin Tianhao’s betrayal, after moving past it, she realized that the world was her oyster.
Even when she was just sitting in the car and looking at the scenery outside, she found the view exceptionally beautiful and interesting.
