After the flash marriage, the billionaire president eavesdropped on my thoughts

"Okay, I can really afford a meal, let's go, let's finish eating early and go back early."

Chu Xing pursed his lips and said nothing. Looking at the small, white hand resting on his wrist, his heart softened for no reason.

Forget it, just let her be today.

The waiter originally looked cold when he saw Song Mai, but when he saw Chu Xing behind her, his attitude immediately became respectful and enthusiastic.

"cloud……"

The man quickly gestured to keep quiet and shook his head at the waiter who was about to call him.

The waiters working in this kind of high-end restaurant are all sharp-eyed and smart people, and they immediately understood what the man meant.

“Is that seat reserved?”

The man pointed to a spot in front of the French window.

The waiter checked and said, "There's one seat left."

"Then let's just do this, how about it?"

Song Mai nodded immediately: "Okay."

This western restaurant is a famous five-star restaurant. The chef is a Michelin chef specially invited from country F. The chef’s foie gras is especially delicious.

Therefore, this restaurant is usually packed with people, and you can’t reserve a seat even if you have money.

Plus, Valentine's Day was approaching, so the restaurant was packed with people inside and outside.

Song Mai was not aware of any of this. She seldom went to any high-end restaurants, and those she had been to were mostly for work. She cooked for herself most of the time, and when she ate out occasionally, she would always go to roadside stalls or small restaurants where the average cost per person did not exceed 50 yuan.

It can be said that she knows little about this type of restaurant.

However, in order to have a good meal today and thank Chu Xing properly, she made some plans in advance. After confirming that Chu Xing was free, she immediately selected a restaurant and made a reservation.

She made the appointment early and managed to get a seat by accident.

What Song Mai didn’t know was that every seat in this restaurant was unique.

The restaurant is located by the lake, and the name of the lake is also very interesting, called Moon Bay. The grassland leading to the restaurant from Moon Bay is called Lover's Hill, which is named after many guests who come to eat like to date by the lake after dinner.

The best seats in the entire restaurant are probably the three or two seats near the window, from which you can see the sparkling lake during the day and the boats and lights on the lake at night.

Sometimes people will decorate the lake with roses, balloons, etc. and take the opportunity to propose, which is very romantic.

Therefore, when many people make reservations, the first thing they want to do is book the seats in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, and these seats are also the VIP seats of the restaurant.

At least you have to be a black card user of the restaurant to be eligible to make a reservation.

For someone like Song Mai who was visiting for the first time, it was already great to be able to reserve a seat in a corner, let alone a VIP seat.

But she had finally come here, so Chu Xing naturally wanted to give her the best experience.

And since he is a gold card member here, he doesn't need to make an appointment in advance.

After the two sat down, Song Mai looked around the restaurant and then at the moonlit scenery on the lake. At this moment, he suddenly understood the meaning of making money.

【Perhaps making money is not just for survival, but more for making yourself live comfortably for the rest of your life.】

The man saw that the woman didn't speak for a long time, just looking out the window with a distant look.

"What are you thinking about?"

Song Mai then came back to his senses and smiled.

"Nothing, let's order."

She smiled cleanly and openly, and she was extremely clear about the contract husband in front of her who had only signed a one-year contract.

For a moment, Chu Xing couldn't help but think of the old man's words: You will know in the future, you won't regret listening to me.

These days he was indeed slowly adapting to living with her and getting used to the feeling of being with her.

But if I were to say I regret it, maybe there is some regret.

As sincere as she is, perhaps he shouldn't have lied to her so much from the beginning.

To the point that he has to tell countless lies to cover it up until now.

But on second thought, well, she is a good person, but that doesn't mean she is right for him.

Although there was no interest involved between her and him, in essence, they each got what they needed.

Two people who come together like this will eventually drift apart even if they are not bound by a contract.

Chu Xing didn't order much, just a sirloin steak and a bowl of mushroom soup.

Song Mai originally thought that since he was already here, he might as well have a big meal to make the trip worthwhile.

But when she opened the menu and saw the prices behind the dishes, she couldn't help but gasp.

【expensive!】

【So expensive! 】

[I could have just grabbed it, but they still gave me two dishes...]

She thought that eating here would be painful, but she didn't expect it to be so painful.

She almost squeezed out a few words from between her teeth: "Just like him."

The man was amused by her distressed yet stubborn look.

"I'll pay the bill, order whatever you want."

Song Mai shook his head like a rattle: "How can that be possible? I'm the one treating you to dinner, how can I ask you to pay the bill? Besides, you have no income now and you're still in the early stages of starting a business, how can I ask you to spend money? I should be the one telling you this, just order whatever you want, no need to save money for me."

The man picked up the water glass and took a sip.

"I've had enough."

Song Mai still looked unconvinced: "Really? I am serious, you really don't have to be polite to me."

Although Chu Xing said it was enough, she herself felt it was a bit shabby.

How can it make sense to treat someone to a meal and then ask them to try to save money for her?

So at Song Mai's insistence, she added two more dishes.

Although it hurts a bit, she has come to terms with it now.

Anyway, she won't get rich if she doesn't spend the money, so she might as well enjoy some freedom and happiness today.

The service in the five-star restaurant was very good. After a while, the waiter pushed the cart and placed the dishes they ordered, and did not forget to wish them a pleasant meal.

Song Mai seldom eats Western food. Even though she had the chance to eat something when she went to a Western restaurant for work, that was work after all. She had to spend more energy and time on work and had no mood to eat at all. So although she knew how to use a knife and fork, it seemed a bit cumbersome to use.

The woman was cutting the steak with great effort, and it took her a long time to cut off a piece.

The taste is good, but it is a bit tiring to eat.

However, Chu Xing was extremely skilled. The knife and fork were used as flexibly in his hands as chopsticks. Cutting steak seemed to be a very easy and smooth task for him.

Song Mai looked at him and felt the same as watching the male lead in an idol drama eating.

As she watched, she even forgot about herself.

Chu Xing took the plate in front of her and cut the steak slowly and leisurely. He looked as handsome as a painting.
