She couldn't hear clearly what they said, but judging from her son's appearance, he probably liked Shen Hua very much.
Her anger surged out again, and she even felt that Shen Hua should not have been left at home in the first place.
"Yu'er..."
Mrs. Leng shouted.
Leng Yu didn't know what his mother was calling him, so he told Shen Hua and walked towards Mrs. Leng.
Leng Yu just walked up to Mrs. Leng and called, "Mother."
Madam Leng took the opportunity to put Fang Jingli's hand into his and said, "Yu'er, this is the first time Li'er comes to our house. Please take good care of her for your mother."
Leng Yu wanted to say something else, but Mrs. Leng had already left.
Leng Yu let go of Fang Jingli's hand without leaving any trace.
Fang Jingli was shocked and said calmly: "Yu, I don't want to do this either, it's just Auntie..."
"It's not your fault."
After Leng Yu finished speaking, he continued to walk into the restaurant with his long legs. Fang Jingli stood there with a confused look on his face.
Mrs. Leng had just walked a few steps when she turned around and saw Fang Jingli standing alone in the restaurant.
Her heart sank, she returned to Fang Jingli, held her hand, and said apologetically: "Li'er, you and Yu'er have been separated for too long. Maybe he is not used to it. It's all because of Auntie." Okay, Auntie also wants to get you together as soon as possible."
Fang Jingli said considerately: "It's okay, Auntie."
Seeing her generous and considerate appearance, Mrs. Leng liked her even more.
She held Fang Jingli's hand and walked towards the main table.
When they walked to the main table, Leng Yu was already sitting at the dining table.
The man is wearing a high-end custom-made handmade suit, and the white shirt buttons inside are rigorously tied to the top. The man's jaw line is delicate and cold, his eyebrows are clear, and he has an alienating temperament.
Mrs. Leng arranged for Fang Jingli to sit next to Leng Yu.
There was a coldness between the man's brows and he said nothing.
Mrs. Leng said: "Yu'er, Li'er is a guest invited by mother. You must take good care of him for mother today."
Hearing this, the man nodded.
Fang Jingli sat next to Leng Yu and glanced at the man beside her, saying apologetically: "Yu, I'm sorry, I didn't expect auntie would arrange it like this..."
"It doesn't matter."
She wanted to say something else, but Leng Yu interrupted her directly.
The man's tone was still so indifferent and distant.
Shen Hua walked slowly to the door of the restaurant. Before she could enter, the housekeeper called her.
"Miss Shen."
Shen Hua paused and said in confusion: "Uncle Xu, did you call me?"
The housekeeper has been in the Leng family for many years. He is a man about fifty years old. Shen Hua has been calling him Uncle Xu ever since she entered the Leng family.
The housekeeper glanced at her and said, "Miss Shen, Madam asked me to arrange a seat for you."
Shen Hua: "..."
She was startled and instantly understood that she could no longer sit next to Leng Yu and eat when Fang Jingli came.
Although for so many years, as long as Leng Yu was at home, she was the one who sat next to her and ate, but after all, she was not from the Leng family.
She was no longer qualified to sit next to Leng Yu.
Shen Hua nodded, and then said: "Uncle Xu, I understand."
The housekeeper followed Mrs. Leng's instructions and placed Shen Hua at the end of the table.
There are usually no people in that place.
Mrs. Leng's arrangement made Shen Hua once again feel that she was redundant in the Leng family.
…
After seeing everyone seated, Mrs. Leng said, "Let's eat."
However, Shen Hua seemed not to hear her words, looking blankly at Leng Yu not far away and Fang Jingli beside him.
The way Fang Jingli raised her hands showed everyone's demeanor, she looked like the kind of girl from a good family background.
The two of them together were like a perfect couple.
When you see them, you can understand what it means: "The people on the road are like jade, and the gentlemen are like no other in the world."
Shen Hua's heart seemed to be torn in half, and she was so painful that she couldn't breathe.
Her little face was pale and her eyes were red. She didn't want Leng Yu to notice her abnormality, so she quietly turned her face away.
However, she knew she should leave.
After all, with her status, she was not qualified to stay by Leng Yu's side.
She couldn't give him any help, but would make things difficult for him because of her identity.
At this time, Fang Jingli picked up a piece of spicy chicken and put it on the plate in front of Leng Yu. She said in a gentle voice: "Yu, try this. It tastes good. I remember you liked spicy food before."
The man didn't make a sound, but he didn't touch the food on the plate.
In fact, since Fang Jingli put food on the plate in front of him, he didn't use that plate and instead asked the servant to get another plate for him.
Fang Jingli felt a little embarrassed for a moment, but she didn't show it.
She looked at Leng Yu and said apologetically: "Yu, I'm sorry, I haven't been with you for such a long time, and I didn't know that your appetite has changed."
Mrs. Leng quickly smoothed things over: "Li'er, it's not your fault. People's appetites will change over time."
As she said that, she added a piece of ribs to Fang Jingli and put it on the plate in front of her. She said with a smile: "Li'er, try this. Auntie remembers that this is your favorite taste."
Fang Jingli picked up the ribs and took a bite, then said, "Auntie, it really is my favorite taste."
"If you like it, eat more."
…
The two are like a mother and daughter.
Although Leng Yu was sitting next to Fang Jingli, his thoughts were on the child he had watched grow up.
Ever since Shen Hua followed the butler's arrangement and sat at the end of the table, the coldness between the man's brows became more obvious.
He never took his eyes away from Shen Hua, watching her quietly look away.
The man's brows grew a bit colder, he stood up suddenly, got up and left.
Leng's mother suddenly called out to him: "Yu'er..."
Leng Yu paused:
At this time Leng's mother said: "Li'er, we haven't finished eating yet and the guests haven't left the table yet. How can you leave first? Have you forgotten the rules of the Leng family?"
Leng Yu said in an indifferent voice: "Mother, Miss Fang is your guest, not mine."
Hearing this, Fang Jingli felt extremely sad, but she still pretended to be fine and sat there calmly.
Leng Yu walked directly to Shen Hua, took her hand and walked out.
Madam Leng watched Leng Yu leave with Shen Hua, and the anger in her heart suddenly burst out.
If it weren't for Fang Jingli being here, she would have exploded long ago.
She suppressed the anger in her heart and continued to eat with Fang Jingli.
Fang Jingli felt something was wrong with Madam Leng's expression, so she thought for a moment and said, "Auntie, maybe Yu took Shen Hua away because he was afraid that she was not feeling well?"
Hearing this, Mrs. Leng couldn't hold it any longer.
She snorted coldly: "Li'er, you are still young, there are some things you don't understand."
Fang Jingli: "..."
She said nothing.
Mrs. Leng added: "I think Leng Yu is dissatisfied with the seats I arranged."
