Minutes trickled by and more chicken drumsticks entered Su Han'd stomach, when a middle-aged male waiter wearing rimmed spectacles finally opened the booth door and politely welcomed Shi Meng inside.
Smiling brightly and barely containing her excitement, Tang Yue leapt up and softly hugged Shi Meng.
"Shi!! You are here. I was " Before she could finish her sentence, Tang Yue's eyes fell on the mesmerizing figure standing next to Shi Meng.
She was so startled that her eyes almost popped out. What in the name of hell is happening here?!
Tang Yue was about to go crazy!
Shi Meng was finally free from the clutches of that annoying loser Su Lin. Now it was her turn!
Tang Yue had been eagerly waiting for some quality one on one time with Shi Meng.
But what in the name of hell is this!?
Standing next to Shi Meng was a petite blonde with ravishing blue eyes.
Her porcelain skin and her calm demeanor, coupled with her simple white dress made her look like an angel descended from the heavens.
And to make things worse, Shi Meng was actually turning back, and inviting her in?
Since when did Shi Meng start being polite to a woman?!
Forget affectionate, his ex-wife didn't get a single polite acknowledging glance from him!!
Even his business associates were always treated coldly and distantly by the arrogant and noble man.
And she herself, who had been chasing him since high school, for almost ten years now, never got an invitation for anything! Heavens, she had to literally initiate all the conversations!
But the fact that he really didn't care for much else other than his business and his mom and he pretty much treated everybody the same, had given her some comfort.
So Tang Yue never really got offended or bothered when the man had constantly maintained a distance between them.
But now…?
Why are you smiling at her Shi Meng?! Who the heck is this bitch? Tang Yue was screaming inside her brain, afraid to let her rotten jealous emotions slip out.
But she didn't admit defeat just yet.
Tang Yue somehow managed to put up a strong front and smiled warmly.
"Hey, this is a surprise!!! Shi has a new pretty friend. Who is this?" She asked delightfully, while simultaneously intertwining her arms with Shi Meng's arm, showcasing their intimate history and relationship, and establishing instant dominance.
She might have as well peed all over him!
"Hi. Nice to..."
Cutting the blonde angel halfway, Tang Yue casually dragged Shi Meng in, pushing him on the couch and herself, falling on his lap effortlessly.
But not even feeling a bit awkward, she smiled innocently and charmingly with her dove-shaped puppy dog eyes and looked at the blonde, waving her hand and signaling her to continue the introduction.
Since the woman looked extremely adorable with her cheeks flushed and a pink rosy glow to them, clearly tipsy, her attitude and behavior seemed more flirtatious rather than rude.
Her childish and frivolous attitude could only be interpreted as funny!
She was perfectly playing the role of a spoilt wife who was teasing her husband.
Tang Yue smiled smugly, apparently very pleased with her impromptu skills.
The blonde angel, aka. Angela Hissenger who was patiently watching the theatrics happening in front of her smiled sarcastically.
Her elegant figure leaned against the door of the dimly lit restaurant booth.
Being a Hissenger and especially Robert's sister, what drama hasn't she been a part of!
Women have fawned over her, plotted against her, used her to get close to Robert! The list really was endless!
And simply put, Tang Yue's desperate actions seemed a little amateurish, compared to all the other wily foxes she knew. It was even a tad hilarious.
Snickering inside her mind, Angela thought about it for a moment. Is this even worth it?!
She then looked at the handsome chiseled man, who was floundering like a fish right now, caught under the grasp of the touchy grabby woman.
He looked so cute and helpless, making her almost laugh out loud.
This evening had unexpectedly taken several interesting turns for her…
Earlier this evening, Angela was supposed to meet someone for a date but she decided to cancel it at the last minute.
This was the one and only evening she was free this entire month.
Lazy and tired, she was not feeling particularly social today.
But since she was already here, she decided to head back after a couple of drinks.
Sitting in a corner of the bar, Angela Hissenger sipped on her cherry margarita and flipped through some old Warren Buffett's annual letters to shareholders.
She was an avid investor in the share market.
Rather than her dad, she considered him her idol and mentor.
After getting in a few drinks, she was about to walk out of the bar, when she mistakenly bumped into someone.
Oops.
She dropped her file and her papers were strewn across the floor.
Sighing, she bent down to pick them up, when another pair of hands nimbly helped her.
And a deep magnetic voice sounded, "If you really want to double your principal amount, I would suggest investing in Microsoft rather than Amazon, which is very bloated right now."
"What?! No way. That is utter bull shit. Online shopping is only projected to increase every month, at least in this economy and fast-paced world." Immediately getting into a defensive tone, Angela looked up and argued, but didn't continue after that.
Surprisingly, the man standing in front of her was a tall drink of water, instantly turning her boring night into a much more delectable one.
If it was him, maybe this was going to be better than the ice cream night she had in mind. Oh well! They might still end up eating ice cream.
The man's magnetic looks had completely captured Angela's attention, as the foreigner flirtatiously replied, "And who might this gentleman be… giving me a not really needed financial advice this fine evening?"
She took a step forward and playfully teased the handsome man by tugging his tie.
And then came the crisp reply, with a tone that was obviously amused "Heh .. Nice to meet you. I am Shi Meng."
