My Sloppy Husband Is Actually a Handsome Bigshot!-Chapter 125 - 123 Past Events 2

And this action, Lin Zhenxin had mostly only seen fathers do to their daughters!

"If possible, can you give me a daughter, please?"

Suddenly, Li Yanan spoke.

Lin Zhenxin didn’t speak for a moment, just looked at the tall man beside her who seemed lost in his own thoughts.

"A daughter like you, like a little sun."

She glanced down at her flat stomach, her originally pale cheeks gradually covered by a rosy blush.

"Who... who wants to give birth for you!" Lin Zhenxin’s face flushed red, her expression flustered, which made Li Yanan laugh.

"Let’s go, didn’t you say you wanted to invite He Bainian to dinner?"

If Li Yanan hadn’t mentioned it, Lin Zhenxin would have really forgotten about this matter.

Watching Li Yanan’s back, she hesitated whether to tell him what happened today.

But thinking about the dinner, she ultimately decided to wait until they were home tonight to talk about it...

The dinner was set at Yunjing Restaurant.

Initially, Lin Zhenxin wanted to call He Bainian, but in the end, it was Li Yanan who called him instead.

Half an hour later, He Bainian pushed open the door to the private room.

As soon as he walked in, he saw Lin Zhenxin.

Compared to the sickly state from before, today her face was still a bit pale, but overall she looked much better.

He Bainian hid the paper bag he was holding behind him, realizing belatedly that the medicine he bought on the way here was probably unnecessary.

"I thought it was just you inviting me."

When he received Li Yanan’s call, He Bainian felt an indescribable sense of disappointment and anger.

"Zhenxin is my wife. It was a hassle for you that day, so both of us should be inviting you to this meal."

Li Yanan spoke calmly, signaling the waiter to pass the menu.

Upon hearing this, He Bainian felt uncomfortable all over again.

Lin Zhenxin sensed the strange atmosphere between the two but didn’t know what to say, and moreover...

If she really said something wrong, and Li Yanan became petty, who knows how he might torment her at home.

"I would’ve preferred if the person sitting next to you... was my sister, He Nuoxin!"

He Bainian’s words made the already tense atmosphere even more tense.

"I’m going to the restroom." Lin Zhenxin placed the menu back on the table without looking at He Bainian, then got up and walked toward the door of the private room.

After Lin Zhenxin left the room, Li Yanan’s face, which had been relatively normal, turned cold immediately.

"Recently, in a bid involving a plot of land supported by the government, a company named T.N.C has emerged as a dark horse, attracting a lot of attention and quickly becoming the strongest competitor to the Li Group!"

After Lin Zhenxin left, He Bainian returned to his usual demeanor, speaking expressionlessly to Li Yanan across from him.

"I’m very curious, this company named T.N.C, before this bid was unheard of in City J, as if it’s deliberately opposing the Li Group. Don’t you have any thoughts on this matter?"

"Moreover, the legal representation of T.N.C is surprisingly Xun Chen’s law firm..."

He Bainian stared directly into Li Yanan’s eyes, his question sharp.

In contrast, Li Yanan only curled his lips into a thin, cold smile.

"The market is open to the public; whichever company meets the bidding conditions has the right to participate."

"Have you been lying in wait all these years, patiently waiting for this day to come?"

He Bainian shifted his tone, directly hitting the main point!

"What does T.N.C stand for? Jiang Dongting, Li Yanan, Jin Muchi?"

Li Yanan tapped his slender fingers rhythmically on the dining table, meeting He Bainian’s aggressive gaze from across the table...

Lin Zhenxin stepped out of the restroom stall, washed her hands, and rinsed her face as well.

She wasn’t wearing makeup initially, and after washing, her face looked even fairer.

She grabbed two tissues to dry her face, then tossed them into the trash bin.

To be honest, she really didn’t want to go back, especially with He Bainian always deliberately mentioning He Nuoxin.

With her hands on the sink, Lin Zhenxin stared at her own face in the mirror.

— You and she... really look alike...

This sentence unexpectedly popped into her mind.

After a moment, she came back to her senses and turned to leave the restroom.

Taking a turn down a corridor, Lin Zhenxin was about to reach the private room, but before she could enter, she saw a familiar figure leaning against the private room door, seemingly peering inside.

"You..." Lin Zhenxin just began to speak when that person turned their head.

Who else could it be but Li Miya?

Li Miya’s eyes widened in shock, staring at Lin Zhenxin as if she’d seen a ghost.

Since being scolded by Li Yanan last time, she was so frightened she lost control of her bladder and developed a high fever that night.

After finally recovering, she wanted to meet He Bainian for dinner today, but ended up seeing his car leaving the parking lot under his office.

She followed all the way to Yunjing.

Her heart was filled with suspicion about whom He Bainian was going to see.

"Why are you here? Brother Nian invited you?"

Li Miya’s tone was pretty unpleasant, her attitude typically spoiled, but she was still somewhat cautious, not daring to be too rude.

Even if Lin Zhenxin was easy to bully, the person backing her, that wild brat, was a lunatic!

Lin Zhenxin was preoccupied, not intending to respond to her, as her hand landed on the doorknob.

"Hey..." Caught off guard, as the door opened, Li Miya barged in uninvited.

"Brother Nian..." She used her usual sweet, sugary tone.

He Bainian, who had been confronting Li Yanan across the table, turned pale upon hearing those words, his expression unpleasant.

Both men looked up at the doorway simultaneously.

Lin Zhenxin followed after, a trace of displeasure between her brows, but since Li Miya was already inside, there was nothing to be done. She closed the door and went to sit next to Li Yanan.

Li Miya flitted to He Bainian’s side like a butterfly, a strong perfume scent spreading through the air.

He Bainian instinctively looked at Lin Zhenxin, his features taut with anger.

Lin Zhenxin knew he must have misunderstood her as the one who invited Li Miya to meddle, so she shook her head silently.

She glanced at the door first, then at Li Miya.

This small gesture instantly made He Bainian understand her meaning and realize that she didn’t intentionally bring Li Miya to disrupt things, his expression finally improving.

Since Li Miya came in, Li Yanan hadn’t spoken again.

He held his glass of water, his handsome face cold and rigid, his long, deep black eyes inscrutable.

"Brother Nian, I’ve called you so many times, and you never answered."

The words were coquettish, but her gaze kept straying towards Li Yanan, growing more confused the longer she looked.

Who is that?

He Bainian pulled his arm away from Li Miya’s chest.

Li Miya had deliberately pressed against his arm, which made him feel increasingly disgusted.

He immediately decided that once he got home, he’d throw away the shirt he was wearing!

"Busy." A single cold word jumped from He Bainian’s mouth.

The sweetly overpowering perfume scent hit his nose, and the veins on He Bainian’s forehead were visibly pulsing.

They’d known each other since they were kids, but Li Miya hadn’t been this annoying back then.

Li Miya acted as if she weren’t aware of any awkwardness, pushing the empty glass in front of her towards Lin Zhenxin.

"I’m thirsty." Her tone was haughty.

Lin Zhenxin actually found it rather amusing; why was she looking at her because she was thirsty?

Pretending not to see it, she reached out to stop Li Yanan from making any move.

Fortunately, the waitress came in with the dishes, breaking the tension.

Lin Zhenxin pretended to accidentally knock Li Miya’s empty glass to the floor, where it shattered with a "crack."

"Sorry, please bring her a new glass." Lin Zhenxin didn’t spare a glance at Li Miya’s furious face, while He Bainian, pressing his lips, couldn’t quite tell if he was smiling or not.

The food came quickly; the three of them had ordered four dishes and a soup, which displeased Li Miya.

She insisted on having the menu brought back.

The waiter discreetly glanced at Li Yanan, who gave a cold look before handing the menu to Li Miya.

He Bainian’s face was sour, and Li Miya had no tact, ordering another seven or eight dishes before stopping.

Born into abundance, Li Miya had extravagance ingrained in her bones.

Even with just four people, she insisted on ordering over ten dishes to feel grand!

"Brother Nian, who’s that?" Li Miya asked He Bainian sweetly, noticing he wasn’t introducing the man beside Lin Zhenxin.

With that question, both Lin Zhenxin and He Bainian fell silent at once!

He Bainian was okay, but Lin Zhenxin’s eyes widened in shock; how could Li Miya not recognize Li Yanan?

Lin Zhenxin stared at Li Miya, seeing her unabashedly gaze at Li Yanan, a hint of attraction in her expression.

"You really don’t know him?" Lin Zhenxin couldn’t help but ask.

Li Miya gave her a dismissive look, her dark eyes rolling, just finding Lin Zhenxin bothersome.

But then she reconsidered, why would Lin Zhenxin be sitting in the same private room with Brother Nian and this unfamiliar man?

"Brother Nian, is he your friend?" she ignored Lin Zhenxin, turning to ask He Bainian sweetly again.

It’s actually not surprising that Li Miya didn’t recognize Li Yanan. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

When she was younger, Li Miya had a strong enmity toward Li Yanan.

As she grew older, Li Yanan spent his days fighting, always with bruises on his face, and didn’t speak, heading straight to the attic.

When she got older and Li Yanan was sent abroad, she also studied overseas, leaving little chance to meet.

By the time she returned, Li Yanan had taken on that obstructive appearance again, let alone any chance to see clearly.

Li Yanan remained silent, the black shirt highlighting his tall and elegant figure, an aura of powerful restraint emanating from him.

"If you’re going to talk, can you not keep leaning on me?" He Bainian finally couldn’t hold back any longer.

He really couldn’t stand how Li Miya kept crashing into his arm!

Li Miya pouted with her plump lips, clearly unhappy.

Her hands inadvertently fell back, brushing against something.

"Brother Nian, what are you hiding behind you?"

Without caring for He Bainian’s expression, Li Miya directly pulled it out.

Perhaps the bag opening was too loose, and everything inside spilled out noisily onto the table and floor.
