After the divorce, Madam, she shocked the world

Chapter 319 Don’t want to make the relationship public

Later in the evening, Zhao Mengxue drove back to the city center. There were dark clouds outside and it was about to rain heavily.

Zhao Mengxue's car stopped in front of the hot pot restaurant. She got out of the car, took her bag and went inside.

The waiter opened the box door and Zhao Mengxue saw Chen Yuchen already sitting there waiting. The hot pot had just started to heat up and the ingredients were placed on the turntable.

The two looked at each other and smiled. Zhao Mengxue sat in the empty seat next to Chen Yuchen, who was working on a tablet computer.

"It smells so good!" Zhao Mengxue said softly, looking at the small pot in front of her that was smoking.

Chen Yuchen turned the turntable in front of her and gave her a few pieces of fat beef with a slight smile on his face.

"I know you are very busy and tired today, so I specially ordered delicious food for you to come." Chen Yuchen said softly, "Are you hungry? Let's try some quickly."

Zhao Mengxue ate a piece of beef. The meat was tender, crispy and had a good taste.

"It's delicious!" Zhao Mengxue nodded, "It's better if you know how to eat it. I didn't know this hot pot was delicious before."

"Did you go to the farm to place an order today?" Chen Yuchen asked softly, with a hint of concern in his eyes.

"Yes, I asked Xiao Li to find someone to prepare a piece of land in the backyard. Then we can just start raising chickens."

Zhao Mengxue has arranged for people, and the matter has been solved for the time being. Fortunately, the problem is not big.

"You want a reliable farmer, I know someone." As soon as Chen Yuchen said that, Zhao Mengxue thought of what Xiao Li said that morning.

"I know, Xiao Li told me that you know a farm that is not open to the public and only provides it to designated customers, but after thinking about it, it's too troublesome. This farm is not bad." Zhao Mengxue smiled.

The two chatted about work while eating hot pot. In the afternoon, Chen Yuchen also saw that someone on the Internet was paying attention to the nursing home. One of them, Wen Pingping, posted a small teaser video.

There has been more heated discussion on the Internet. Everyone is curious whether what the grandmother's family said is true or if there is something else they are hiding.

It was originally just a small matter, but the grandmother's family insisted on making a big fuss, which attracted the attention of many people from the outside world.

"Are you busy with grandma's business today?" Chen Yuchen lowered his voice and was responsible for cooking for Zhao Mengxue.

"Grandma's matter is a bit complicated. I won't have an answer for a while." Zhao Mengxue shook her head, "I think it will take some time to deal with this matter."

"No matter how you say it, it's all their family's business. It's really hard for us outsiders to say..."

There was a hint of distress in Chen Yuchen's eyes. Zhao Mengxue had been busy recently and had a lot of things on her hands, and he was even more worried that she would collapse from exhaustion.

"The only bargaining chip the old woman has now is the house. As long as she doesn't relent and sign the agreement and give up the house, those people can't do anything. I'm afraid she will be soft-hearted." Zhao Mengxue frowned, with a hint of helplessness in her eyes.

"Grandma's attitude is very important. If she doesn't want to understand, it will be useless no matter how much we help." Chen Yuchen said coldly.

"Yes, so I want the old lady to think calmly first and her family members should stop coming here recently."

Zhao Mengxue's cell phone vibrated, and the screen showed Zhan Tingsi as a caller. She swiped across it to answer the call and said hello.

A trace of displeasure flashed across Chen Yuchen's face, and a trace of sourness appeared in his heart.

"I heard from Wen Pingping that you have been in a bit of trouble these past two days. Do you want me to help you?" Zhan Tingsi smiled and said, "I know a lot of media. Find some friends who can help you solve the problem."

"No, there's no need to make such a big fuss for the time being. I don't want to affect the old man's life yet."

A smile appeared on Zhao Mengxue's lips, "It's enough if you ask Wen Pingping to help."

"Wen Pingping has been researching nursing home issues, and this time we just have the opportunity to cooperate with her. She is a very reliable person, so please feel free to cooperate." Zhan Tingsi chuckled.

"Yes, I know, I want to thank you for meeting Wen Pingping this time." Zhao Mengxue smiled.

"It's okay. Do you want to have dinner together?" Zhan Tingsi enthusiastically invited, "I know there is a very popular Western restaurant recently. We can go to eat."

"No, I'm already eating now." Zhao Mengxue looked specifically at the man next to her. Chen Yuchen's face didn't look good.

"Okay, I won't disturb you for now." Zhan Tingsi quickly hung up the phone.

Chen Yuchen's mind was filled with questions. He thought that Zhao Mengxue had concealed the news that he was by her side. She could tell Zhan Tingsi that they would have dinner together, but she still didn't say anything.

The low pressure of the man next to him was too strong, and Zhao Mengxue sensed something was wrong.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Mengxue asked softly.

"It's okay." Chen Yuchen shook his head and lowered his head to eat.

"You don't look like you're okay at all." Zhao Mengxue smiled and gave Chen Yuchen a piece of beef.

Chen Yuchen thought of what Liao Xing said. He couldn't make random guesses on his own and should take the initiative to communicate.

"Why can't you tell me that you are having dinner with me?" Chen Yuchen asked with a cold face, and his tone was a bit dissatisfied.

Zhao Mengxue burst out laughing. She almost couldn't stop laughing when she heard Chen Yuchen's sour and jealous smell.

Chen Yuchen really didn't know what was so funny. His face turned darker and he was eating with his head down, resisting the urge to leave.

The atmosphere gradually became quieter, and Zhao Mengxue stopped smiling. She thought she had to explain it carefully.

"I was just talking casually. If I specifically said that I was in love, would it appear that I was too frivolous? People were talking to me about business matters, but I got involved in personal matters for no reason." Zhao Mengxue explained seriously.

"That's the War Court Division..." Chen Yuchen protested dissatisfied.

"Yes, but we are just talking about business. Could it be that I want to show off my affection on purpose? People think I'm crazy!"

Zhao Mengxue didn't think she had done anything wrong. She didn't want to mix official and private matters.

"Then what should we do?" Chen Yuchen said innocently, "How about we make our relationship public?"

"Publicly?" Zhao Mengxue frowned and spoke a little louder.

The two looked at each other for a while, and Chen Yuchen felt that Zhao Mengxue didn't want to make it public, or that it was too sudden and she didn't seem ready.

"My dear, you are rejecting me." Chen Yuchen raised his eyebrows, with a hint of dissatisfaction between them, "I thought our relationship could be made public."

Silence is a kind of tug-of-war. Zhao Mengxue's current focus is on work, and she really doesn't care at all whether the relationship is public or not.

When Chen Yuchen saw Zhao Mengxue's silence, he already knew the answer.

"Mengmeng, I think our relationship can go further." Chen Yuchen continued, "Our relationship should not stay where it is."

Zhao Mengxue bit her lower lip and squinted her eyes slightly, looking a little confused.

"I feel that it is not appropriate for our current relationship to be made public. I only want to pursue a career." Zhao Mengxue expressed directly, "I hope you can understand me."

"Okay." Chen Yuchen rubbed his brows, unable to say no.
