Chapter 363: Chapter 225: These Two Are Excessively Annoying_2

Chen Cheng asked unhurriedly: "I was asking you."

"Secret."

Su Liya winked at Chen Cheng, then quickly caught up with Wen Shulin and Xiao Meier.

The food in the rotating restaurant was plentiful, with a dazzling array of dishes that were hard to resist.

Xiao Meier and Su Liya continuously stuffed their plates with various delicious foods, such as hawthorn and pea cake, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, without missing any.

Wen Shulin, on the other hand, was relatively restrained. She only picked up some vegetables and salmon.

"Sister Lin, don’t you like these dishes?" Xiao Meier glanced at her own plate and then at hers, noting the stark contrast.

"No, I eat less at night."

"Ah, no wonder you keep in such good shape."

Xiao Meier looked enviously at Wen Shulin, then back down at her own plate.

Wen Shulin smiled lightly, "Xiao Er, it’s your figure that’s really enviable. All the curves are in the right places, a perfect S-shape, many people can’t achieve that."

Xiao Meier felt a bit embarrassed by the compliment, "It’s not as good as you say..."

Su Liya chimed in playfully, "Exactly, Sister Xiao Er’s figure is the best!"

"You just like to tease me." Xiao Meier laughed and tapped Su Liya on the forehead.

The rotating restaurant slowly spun, changing the scenery outside the windows.

The atmosphere at the table was light and harmonious, but underneath, there were undercurrents.

Since Wen Shulin was sitting opposite Chen Cheng, she naturally wouldn’t miss this opportunity.

Wen Shulin discreetly stretched out her foot, wrapped in high heels, and gently brushed Chen Cheng’s shin.

Chen Cheng’s body visibly stiffened, and his grip on his chopsticks unconsciously tightened.

This intensity and angle were obviously more provocative than the previous times.

Wen Shulin, however, acted as if nothing happened, continuing to chat with Xiao Meier, but with a slight smirk curling her lips.

"Eh? What’s wrong?" Xiao Meier noticed Chen Cheng hadn’t moved his chopsticks for a while and asked with concern.

"The salmon is a bit cold."

Chen Cheng replied, "The seasons have changed recently; my stomach feels a bit upset."

"Oh right, how could I forget that." Xiao Meier quickly took away the glass of ice water in front of him, "You shouldn’t eat cold things then, have some hot food."

Saying that, she served Chen Cheng a raw oyster and also passed her share of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall to him.

"You eat first, I’ll get some more later."

Wen Shulin seeing this, became bolder with her foot movements, gently caressing his shin.

Chen Cheng suddenly felt a tingling sensation shoot from his feet to his head. He took a deep breath, striving to suppress his urge to dodge.

He looked at Wen Shulin, only to see her looking back innocently as if the previous teasing was his imagination.

"What’s wrong?" Wen Shulin asked knowingly, a hint of amusement in her eyes.

"Seeing you eat so little, aren’t you hungry?"

Wen Shulin smiled, "It’s okay, I don’t have much of an appetite."

"Sister Lin is keeping her figure, you wouldn’t understand!" Xiao Meier said.

"I see."

Chen Cheng was at a loss, he shook his head helplessly; this woman was getting better at stirring him up.

Meanwhile, Su Liya beside Wen Shulin had seen Wen Shulin’s actions.

She didn’t mention it, but instead suggested, "Mommy, Sister Xiao Er, should we have some wine?"

Xiao Meier’s eyes lit up, "Right, for such a rare moment, we should drink a little, it sets the mood!"

Wen Shulin put away her smile, turned her head, "Do you want to drink?"

Su Liya quickly said, "I won’t drink, you two go ahead."

Xiao Meier curiously asked, "Is Li Ya allergic to alcohol?"

Before Wen Shulin could explain, Su Liya herself pulled out a sobriety necklace hanging around her neck from beneath her dress, "I have this, so I don’t drink."

"What’s that?" Xiao Meier asked curiously.

Wen Shulin, not wanting others to know Su Liya’s past, said, "It’s just a necklace, I don’t allow her to drink, she’s still young."

Wen Shulin quickly brightened up again, "Xiao Er, shall we drink some?"

"Sure!"

Xiao Meier turned to Chen Cheng, "Xiao Cheng, how about you?"

"I’m driving today. You guys go ahead."

"We could call a designated driver." Wen Shulin warmly invited, "Otherwise, Li Ya and I could take a cab later."

"Eh, I said I’d take you home, so I’ll definitely see you safely home."

Chen Cheng smiled, "I mean what I say."

"Then today you’ll just have to bear with it," Wen Shulin said smilingly, "Xiao Er, let’s drink."

"Yeah!"

The waiter quickly brought over the red wine, and Wen Shulin and Xiao Meier each poured a glass.

"Cheers, Xiao Er, to your everlasting happiness." Wen Shulin raised her glass.

Xiao Meier hastily held her cup with both hands, "Sister Lin, may you grow prettier and have every success in your career."

"Thank you."

The two clinked glasses, and Wen Shulin took a light sip then stopped.

Xiao Meier, always straightforward, drained hers in one gulp.

"What’s up? Sister Lin?"

Wen Shulin picked up the wine bottle, inspected the label, and frowned lightly, "Something seems off about this wine."

"How so?"

Xiao Meier asked puzzledly, "Doesn’t all red wine taste like this? Sweet, just like grape juice."

Wen Shulin, who usually at least drinks Penfolds 407, naturally couldn’t get used to this BVCE.

Chen Cheng took Xiao Meier’s glass of wine, sniffed it, and smoothed things over, "This wine is not aged, it’s sweeter, indeed not quite suitable for Chairman Wen."

Xiao Meier frowned, "Really? I don’t know much about red wine, I hardly drink it..."

"It’s okay, everyone has different tastes."

Wen Shulin said with a smile, "Since you like sweet, next time I’ll take you to my friend’s winery. They have some sweet wines that are quite good, you’ll probably like them."
