Hearing this, the pampered woman said with great excitement, “Then let’s order a couple set!”
A couple set?!
The corners of Corey’s eyes twitched. “I’m afraid that’s not a good idea.”
“What’s wrong with that? We’ll be a couple after today anyways.”
The pampered woman glanced at him shyly, showing the best of a woman’s delicate demeanor.
Corey was speechless. Who had given her the confidence to think they could become a couple?
Had she asked what he thought about it?
“Miss Yang, actually, I… ”
Corey wanted to explain himself, but she interrupted him. “Oh, you can just call me Jiaojiao, there’s no need to be so formal.”
After that, she lowered her head shyly.
Corey was so desperate that he did not even want to say anything.
Compared to such a pretentious woman, Ying Xiaoxiao’s straightforward and fiery character was more of his type.
Without asking for Jiaojiao’s opinion, he said directly to the waiter beside him, “Give me a random set, anything but the couple set, thank you!”
“Corey… ” The pampered woman lifted her head and looked at him in shock. “I want the couple set!”
Corey ignored her and directly took away all the menus on the table and handed them to the waiter.
“Don’t listen to him. Give us a couple set, the most expensive one.”
The pampered woman did not know why he had suddenly became like this, but she did not want to compromise.
The waiter did not know who to listen to. He looked at one of them awkwardly and then looked at the other one.
Corey took a deep breath, smiled at the pampered woman, and said gently, “Jiaojiao, we’ll order couple sets after we become a couple. After all, it’s our first time meeting each other today, it wouldn’t be good to just jump straight into it.”
Corey’s gentleness caused her resistance to weaken. She nodded and said, “Whatever you say.”
Corey secretly heaved a sigh of relief and then said to the waiter, “Just do as I said.”
The waiter responded with an “okay”, then took the menu and hurried out of the private room.
The room fell into silence. The pampered girl lowered her head and played with her fingers, occasionally looking up and stealing a glance at Corey. When her eyes met Corey’s gaze, she immediately lowered her head again.
Corey was speechless. He really did not have the energy to pick on her fake shyness.
Hence, he reached into his pocket as he wanted to take out his phone and check. However, he could not reach it.
His eyes suddenly bulged wide open. When he had changed his shoes and gone out this morning, he seemed to have put his mobile phone on the shoe cabinet.
He was still wondering why Ying Xiaoxiao had not called him. It turned out that he had forgotten to take his mobile phone with him.
Now it was going to be more troublesome for him to explain to Ying Xiaoxiao.
He gave a bitter chuckle.
“You don’t know what a jerk my fiancé is. We are already getting married, and I’m even pregnant, but he is still secretly seeing other women outside. Can you guys tell me why am I so pitiful?”
Ying Xiaoxiao was surrounded by several waiters as she bawled and told them how ‘pitiful’ she was.
One of the waiters said in disbelief, “Mr. Lu is so handsome, I can’t believe he’s such a jerk.”
At this moment, another person snorted and said, “The more handsome a man is, the more restless he will be. They think that they can flirt with girls everywhere thanks to their looks. It’s disgusting.”
“Yes, yes! The more handsome a man is, the easier it will be for him to cheat.”
Ying Xiaoxiao raised her hand to wipe her tears as she secretly glanced at those indignant waiters. At that moment, a trace of cunning flashed across her eyes.
