Tao Yao turned on the faucet, and her slender white fingers casually fiddled with the water.

She suddenly scooped up a handful of water and splashed it towards Su Ning and Wu Xue.

Wu Xue and Su Ning had no time to dodge and were splashed in the face. Su Ning's face turned ugly and she frantically took out tissues from her bag. She had spent a long time putting on her makeup today. Her looks were at best average, and with makeup she could barely be considered 70% good looking.

Taoyao turned off the faucet and looked at them awkwardly using powder to touch up their makeup, which she found funny.

Tao Yao walked across from them, her red lips curled up as she murmured, "I don't accept your apology. Next time we meet, remember to take a detour, otherwise I don't know what I'll do. You said it yourself, Wen Yiqian and I are capable of kidnapping and murder."

Su Ning glared at her angrily, and her gentle mask was instantly torn off. She didn't even pretend anymore.

"Wen Yirou, do you still think you are some wealthy young lady? The Wen family is on the verge of bankruptcy. You like Li Chennian, and your sister likes Xie Yun. It's a pity, they are both my slaves. I wonder how long you can keep your complacency."

As Su Ning finished speaking, loud slapping sounds were heard in the toilet.

Su Ning covered her face in disbelief. Tao Yao looked at the palm of her hand. Su Ning was so shameless that it hurt her palm.

Wu Xue was also frightened by Tao Yao's slap. She didn't expect that Tao Yao, who looked weak, could hit people so fiercely. Su Ning's face was swollen.

"This slap is just an appetizer. If you continue to speak rudely, Su Ning, I might actually have someone kidnap you."

Su Ning stared at Tao Yao with red eyes, "How dare you hit me."

Tao Yao looked at the palms of her hands with disgust. Su Ning didn't know how much powder she had put on, and it was all on her hands. She walked to the sink and scrubbed them with hand soap for a long time before coming down.

"I hit you, what's wrong? Is there a problem?"

After such a commotion, Tao Yao lost her mood to eat. Su Ning just said that Li Chennian was her lover, and she felt very uncomfortable. She just wanted to stay away from him.

As soon as she returned to the box, she picked up her bag and was about to leave. Seeing that she was about to leave as soon as she came back, Li Chennian immediately became frightened and ran to stop her.

He blocked the door and wouldn't let her go.

"What's wrong? The dishes have been ordered. Who offended you?"

The more Tao Yao looked at Li Chennian's face, the angrier she became. How could she be so stupid to believe his lies? Tao Yao's eyes turned red with anger, and tears fell to the ground like pearls from a broken string.

"Let's not contact each other anymore, Li Chennian. We're not suitable to be friends. If you want to take revenge on me because I bullied you at school before, you can just tell me directly. There's no need to act so hypocritical in front of me. You make me feel sick."

Li Chennian wanted to grab her wrist and ask her what was wrong, but Taoyao was crying so hard that she hid and refused to let him touch her. He didn't dare to use force for fear of hurting her.

Tao Yao walked around him and pulled the door handle. She pulled it several times, but the door didn't open. She was angry and slammed the door hard.

Li Chennian just felt distressed. She was crying and making a fuss, and her hands were red from clapping.

He sighed helplessly and hugged Taoyao in his arms. Taoyao was still angry and pushed him hard.

Li Chennian waited for her to calm down, then carried her to sit on a chair. He squatted down, took out a few wet tissues, and gently wiped her tears.

"Tell me what happened, and stop crying."

There were tears hanging from the corners of Taoyao's eyes, and the little red mole became as beautiful as blood after being washed by the tears. Every drop of tears flowed into Li Chennian's heart. In addition to sourness, his heart also had several different emotions.

He gently wiped away the tears with his thumb, finally stopping at the red mole at the corner of her eye, circling it ambiguously.

There were two knocks on the door, and Tao Yao turned her head away to avoid his burning gaze. Li Chennian looked at her with such passion that she always felt that he wanted to strip her naked and eat her.

The waiter brought the dishes to the table. The dishes ordered by Li Chennian were all Taoyao's favorites, including sweet and sour spare ribs, blanched Chinese cabbage, boiled shrimp, pickled pork with preserved vegetables, stir-fried abalone, and a bowl of chicken soup.

Li Chennian sat back in his seat, took her bowl and scooped a bowl of chicken soup.

"This chicken soup is nourishing. It contains Chinese medicinal herbs. Drinking more is good for your health."

Tao Yao looked at the golden chicken soup in front of her and smelled the faint herbal aroma.

She had just cried so hard that she felt a little hungry. She took a small sip with a spoon. The chicken soup was a little hot and it hurt the tip of her tongue. She took a breath in annoyance.

Why did she become so stupid when she met Li Chennian? Li Chennian gently held her chin with his tiger's mouth.

"You're burned! Let me see. Be good and open your mouth. I can see if it's serious."

Taoyao always felt that Li Chennian treated her like he was coaxing a child, and Taoyao had no choice but to open her mouth.

"It's okay. It doesn't hurt anymore."

Li Chennian's breathing became rapid and his voice became hoarse. "That's good. Let's eat."

Taoyao didn't eat much. She ate a small bowl of rice the size of her fist, some of the various dishes, and then drank half a bowl of soup.

The remaining dishes went into Li Chennian's stomach. After they finished their meal and came out of the private room, they met Su Ning and Wu Xue.

When Su Ning saw Li Chennian and Tao Yao together, she stared at Tao Yao with a dark face. She didn't expect that Wen Yirou would hook up with Li Chennian as soon as she came back. If Li Chennian hadn't intervened, she would have had to bow her head and push Wu Xue out to take the blame.

In the past few years, Li Chennian has been very indifferent to her and didn't even say hello when they met.

She smiled sweetly and walked forward to greet Li Chennian.

"Chen Nian, you are having dinner here too. Are you and Miss Wen discussing something? That's right, I heard from Xie Yun that you and President Fu are planning to acquire the Wen Corporation. So, you must be having dinner with Miss Wen because of this."

After Su Ning finished speaking, Li Chennian's eyes shot towards her like icy arrows. He glanced at Tao Yao beside him in panic.

Tao Yao knew that Wen Yiqian had been very busy recently and that the Wen family was in big trouble, but she didn't expect that this was all because of Li Chennian. It seemed that Li Chennian approached her for his own benefit, and her heart was suddenly filled with sourness.

After Su Ning finished speaking, she looked at Tao Yao's ugly face and felt more and more proud in her heart. Wen Yirou was just a naive young lady, how could she possibly beat her.

Li Chennian rebuked her mercilessly, "Su Ning, you should worry about yourself when you have time. Xie Yun is getting married, and I'm afraid your dream of becoming a rich wife is about to be shattered."

Su Ning gritted her teeth in anger, but she did not dare to act rudely in front of Li Chennian. Things were different now. Even the Xie family had to be wary of Li Chennian now.

As soon as they came out of the restaurant, Li Chennian clearly felt that Tao Yao was in a bad mood. He drove the car and parked it at the entrance of the community.

As soon as the car stopped, Tao Yao opened the door without even looking at him and went upstairs alone.

Li Chennian parked the car in the garage and took out a pack of cigarettes from the car in a somewhat annoyed manner.

He opened the car window and held the lighter in his hand, but was hesitant to light it. He curled the corners of his lips in a mocking manner. It seemed that his plan had to be advanced, as Tao Yao had begun to avoid him.
