The Bully President and the Serious Wife
Chapter 14: Tit-for-tat at the dinner table (1)
She said, "Thank you, Master. Nice to meet you. I'm...Xu Lu."
Xie Zhenting pursed his thin pink lips. "Nice to meet you, Miss Xu.
He held out his hand.
She was so angry that she gritted her teeth and finally realized how shameless Xie Zhenting was.
Taking a deep breath, Xu Lu reluctantly stretched out her arm and shook hands with Xie Zhenting.
In front of Director Hong, she did not choose to quarrel with Xie Zhenting.
Xu Lu's opportunity is there, and she must seize it firmly.
She also couldn't put Miss Mei in a difficult position.
Since Xie Zhenting pretended not to know her, she had no reason to get angry.
Xu Lu only intended to shake hands with him politely, but she didn't expect him to hold her hand tightly.
His arms were so strong and powerful that she could do nothing.
Seeing her anger about to explode, he let go.
When their hands separated, Xie Zhenting's fingers deliberately stroked her palm.
Tensions.
None of the people present were idiots - everyone could sense that something was wrong between them, but they had the tacit understanding to act as if they didn't see anything.
The film producer is a fat, middle-aged man with a bald head, who comes across as a mean-spirited person.
He said, "Thank you, Master. Have you eaten yet? If not, please join us."
“Okay.”
Xu Lu gritted her teeth. She couldn't keep swallowing her anger—she had to find a way to get revenge on him.
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Xie Zhenting chose to sit on the right side of Xu Lu to ensure that he was very close to her.
Xu Lu took out a wet napkin from her bag and started wiping her hands with it. She kept wiping and wiping until her palms turned red.
Silent protest!
The first topic everyone discussed was the film, including casting, filming locations, props, and so on.
We ate and talked at the same time, and because we were eating hot pot, everyone was sweating profusely.
He was the only one who didn't touch the chopsticks and only drank two glasses of boiled water.
Xu Lu observed everything from the corner of her eyes and sneered: The young master of the Xie family would never eat from the same pot with others because he thought it was unhygienic.
Things like sliced beef, tripe, tofu, and lamb brains might be delicious to others, but not to him.
Xie Zhenting always eats the best food - Kobe beef, foie gras, Beluga caviar, white truffles... everything must be of the highest quality.
From the moment she saw him for the first time, Xu Lu knew that he was a picky person.
In Xu Lu's words, "I have never met such a high-class person."
He was lucky to be born in the Xie family simply because the Xie family had the ability to meet his needs.
Xie Zhenting's appearance made Xu Lu feel uncomfortable. She grabbed a glass of wine and drank it in one gulp.
She put the cup down, a huge smile on her face. "Thank you, Master. Why aren't you eating? You haven't even touched your chopsticks."
Xie Zhenting glanced into her eyes. "I'm not hungry."
Xu Lu said enthusiastically: "Really? Well, even if you are not hungry, you should at least try it. Everyone is enjoying the food? It would be bad if you don't touch the chopsticks."
“Mmm, it tastes really good. Try it.”
She graciously gave him some pork belly.
A thick layer of red chili oil was smeared on the pork belly, and it looked incredibly spicy.
In fact, she knew that he couldn't eat spicy food.
The crimson oil and white filaments made him feel dizzy. He clenched his fists and looked at Xu Lu with a frown.
Xu Lu looked straight into his eyes, with a cold smile on her lips...
Provocation, naked provocation...
It's obvious that she did it on purpose
Xie Zhenting was still hesitant to pick up his chopsticks, so Xu Lu asked again: "Don't you like it?" "How about some... beef?"
Xu Lu picked up a few slices for him. Seeing the food on the plate, his stomach began to churn, but his expression remained calm.
She wasn't ready to let him go. If Xie Zhenting continued to not touch his chopsticks, she would continue piling food onto his plate.
Two nights ago, she had slept with him - he had bitten her, leaving marks all over her body. He had even humiliated her the day before.
Her resentment towards him had not yet dissipated, not by a long shot.
Miss Mei looked at him with a frown.
She knew Xu Lu very well, and she wasn't trying to coax him. What was she trying to do?
Doesn’t she know that the young master of the Xie family will be enraged?
Miss Mei muttered to herself silently. She wanted to give Xu Lu a reminder, but she was worried that it would be too abrupt.
Xie Zhenting looked at Xu Lu's radiant face.
"Do you really want to see me eat? Huh?"
There was a hint of excitement in his last syllable, which aroused the curiosity of everyone present. These two people must be related.
Yan Lulu smiled and replied, “Yes. I’m waiting to see…if you’re willing?”
Xu Lu was sure that Xie Zhenting would not touch the chopsticks, however, he reached out and took her chopsticks.
He picked up a piece of beef covered in chili oil and put it in his mouth. It was the first time he had eaten anything like this. He swallowed it without even chewing it.
Xu Lu took a look and was surprised.
After a while, people heard his uncontrollable coughing.
His face quickly turned red.
Xu Lu said harmlessly: "You don't eat spicy food?" "Why didn't you say so earlier? I'm sorry. "
Xie Zhenting drank a whole glass of water and wiped his lips with a handkerchief.
Xu Lu put on a falsely sympathetic face and said, “I’m sorry. I didn’t know that Mr. Xie couldn’t eat spicy food. Why didn’t you tell me?”
The last thing Director Hong wanted was to offend her "God of Wealth." She quickly said, "If we had known, we could have changed the soup base. I'm truly sorry."
More and more people began to feel annoyed by Xu Lu's pretentiousness.
Xie Zhenting deliberately commented: "It doesn't matter. How can I refuse a beautiful woman who offers me food?"
The eyes of the entire table were fixed on Xu Lu, completely confused.
She clenched her teeth so hard they almost broke.
“As you say, if a beautiful lady offered you a cup of poison, would you drink it?”
Xie Zhenting remained expressionless and replied, "That depends on who it is.
The smile disappeared from Xu Lu's face and she suppressed her anger!
She drank another glass of wine, but her anger didn't subside.
and so…
Under the table, she aimed at his foot and stepped hard.
She was wearing high heels.
