Chapter 916: Another Threat
Chapter 915 Another threat
Gong Yuze reserved a seat by the window for her. From here, she could see the skyscrapers stacked up against each other under the night sky, and she could also extend into the distance to see the city's spectacular scenery like the golden pavement.
"It's so beautiful." Xia Anning couldn't help but exclaimed.
"If you like, we can come here often in the future." Gong Yuze curled his lips and smiled, and naturally held her hand when he went up the next step.
Xia Anning looked sideways at him, with a strong struggle in her eyes.
She sat down and the waiter gently placed the menu in front of their table.
"Just order whatever you like." Gong Yuze's eyes conveyed a hint of encouragement.
What he fears most is that this woman saves him money in the restaurant.
Xia Anning understood what he meant. She pursed her lips and smiled softly. She opened the first page of the menu and looked at the prices on it. She was no longer surprised.
At this moment, she felt that another guest came in from the direction of the door. Xia Anning raised her eyes slightly, just naturally wanting to see the visitor.
However, her whole body trembled with fear.
It was Lan Ying and a young girl who walked in. They came in talking and laughing.
Lan Ying's eyes glanced naturally, and her eyes met Xia Anning's in mid-air.
The smile on her face froze, especially when she saw Gong Yuze sitting opposite Xia Anning.
Jealousy had clearly welled up in her eyes, and she stared coldly at Xia Anning, her eyes full of warning and ridicule.
She did not expect that Xia Anning not only did not leave Gong Yuze, but also had a sweet dinner with him here.
This was really beyond her expectation!
Xia Anning almost didn't dare to look at Lan Ying. She lowered her eyes in panic, pretending to look at the menu, but she couldn't see anything.
Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of Lan Ying walking towards her, and her heartstrings tightened nervously.
"Brother Yuze, what a coincidence, you are eating here too!" Lan Ying came over to say hello with a natural look on her face. Gong Yuze frowned slightly. He was not happy to meet Lan Ying here. He responded lightly, "Yeah."
Lan Ying's smile immediately froze. She looked at Xia Anning opposite, and then smiled, "Then we won't disturb you anymore."
After saying that, she and her friend did not avoid their gaze, and sat down in the middle of the hall opposite their table. Lan Ying was diagonally opposite Xia Anning. As long as she raised her head, she could feel Lan Ying. Ying's eyes were staring at her.
There was an invisible pressure that pressed over her, making Xia Anning's heart no longer relaxed.
Lan Ying was really angry inside. She was wondering if Xia Anning didn't plan to leave Gong Yuze anymore.
Lan Ying took out her mobile phone, edited a message and sent it to Xia Anning's mobile phone with a threatening tone.
"Xia Anning, it seems that you don't love your mother at all! You don't plan to leave Brother Yuze, do you? Okay! Then we have nothing to say."
Xia Anning saw Lan Bao typing something on her phone, and soon, a message came from her phone. She wondered if it was from her. She picked up her phone and opened it, and sure enough, it was from her.
Seeing this sentence, Xia Anning's heart suddenly became anxious. She really didn't know that she would meet her here.
She replied, "Miss Lan, I love my mother very much, and I will definitely do what I promised you."
Lan Ying gave her a sarcastic smile on the other end, and then replied, "It's best this way, otherwise, you can't afford the consequences."
Xia Anning bit her lip and looked a little pale.
Gong Yuze, who had been taking orders opposite, handed the menu to the waiter. When he picked up the cup and drank tea, he saw the girl opposite looking out the window with her face full of thoughts.
Gong Yuze immediately stretched out his hand, holding her hand on the table, wanting to ask her.
But as soon as his hand touched the back of Xia Anning's hand, she suddenly felt as if she was electrocuted. She quickly pulled her hand away and refused his handshake.
"What's wrong? Are you worried?" Gong Yuze looked at her worriedly.
"No...no!" Xia Anning said in a panic. Just now, she instinctively pulled away her hand because she was afraid that Lan Ying opposite would see this scene.
She looked at Lan Ying subconsciously, and saw Lan Ying holding a red wine glass in her hand, staring coldly at them through the rim of the glass.
"Looking at you from the moment you got in the car to now, you look worried. Is your mother in trouble again?" Gong Yuze locked her face and asked, usually her troubles are mostly her fault. Made by mother.
"My mother has been at home recently and has never gone out to gamble." Xia Anning shook her head.
"Then what are you worried about? Could it be that school is about to start and you are worried about your studies." Gong Yuze asked with a smile.
Xia Anning could only nod her head along with his words, "Yes, maybe that's the reason!"
Gong Yuze comforted, "It's okay, I will help you graduate."
Xia Anning's eyes moistened. Why did this man treat her so well? Even if he treated her worse, she would feel better.
In Lan Ying's eyes, every look between Xia Anning and Gong Yuze seemed affectionate and full of love, which made two clusters of jealousy burn in her eyes.
Was Xia Anning deliberately showing affection in front of her?
"I'm going to the bathroom." Xia Anning's eyes were slightly wet, making her want to leave.
"Go!" Gong Yuze could see that she was moved by his words.
Xia Anning walked towards the bathroom, and Lan Ying immediately seized the opportunity and stood up.
Xia Anning didn't notice that she followed her. She walked into the bathroom and washed her face and eyes with a handful of clean water.
When she wiped the water out of her eyes, Lan Ying, who was standing beside her, stared at her with her arms around her.
She was startled and stepped back.
Lan Ying just scanned the bathroom and saw that there was no one there, so she was not afraid to speak.
"Xia Anning, did you do what I said? Or are you still dreaming of staying with Brother Yuze?"
"Please give me some time, I need time." Xia Anning looked at her with pleading eyes.
"I think you want to seduce Brother Yuze as much as possible!"
"I didn't!"
"I don't care. If you don't leave him in half a month, you can wait for bad news from your mother! I won't be soft-hearted."
"Miss Lan, please let my mother go, okay?"
"You are as mean as your mother. You took someone else's love. I won't let you two go." Lan Ying said with disgust, turned around and walked out.
Behind her, Xia Anning leaned on the sink, and tears of humiliation once again overflowed from her eyes.
Lan Ying's words were very hurtful. If she hadn't held the evidence of her mother, she would definitely not allow her to curse like this.
