Chapter 15 I Can't Even Shut Your Mouth!

Xi Xiu didn't want such an excuse. What could Tang Yinning do now? She could only engage in a lawsuit.

Seeing that Tang Yinning had fastened her seat belt, he stepped on the accelerator. When the car was on the road, Xi Xiu said in a low voice, "If I say it has something to do with the lawsuit, are you interested in it?"

She couldn't believe that this guy caught her weakness! Tang Yinning wanted to say that she was not interested, but it turned out that she really wanted to know how was it going.

"Tell me, I've given you all my afternoon." Tang Yinning nodded in resignation.

Xi Xiu curled his lips and smiled, feeling a little pleased as if he had his way. "Eat with me first."

Without asking, he drove directly to a big sidewalk snack booth. Logically speaking, such a place was incompatible with his status and his luxury car.

Tang Yinning was familiar with this sidewalk snack booth. To be exaggerated, she could even find it with her eyes closed. After all, it was the only sidewalk snack booth she liked since she was a child.

She had brought Chen Pojun here twice when she was in college. But he didn't like here, for he might not be used to it or he felt it was cheap.

However, she did not expect that Xi Xiu would take her to a place that she had not been to for two years. She asked in surprise, "Do you like this snack booth too?"

"It's because you like it." Xi Xiu was very picky about food. He didn't even bother to look at such a sidewalk stall. But today it was really a big change for him to "condescend" for accompanying Tang Yinning to eat here.

However, Tang Yinning did not know how struggling it was for Xi Xiu to sit down here. She used wet tissues and tissue paper to wipe the chair three times. Seeing that he sit down with relief, she felt relieved too.

"What do you want to eat?" Tang Yinning held the menu and looked at the delicious food on it, which aroused her appetite.

"Steamed eggs with sea urchin, lemon shrimp, salt and pepper brown crab, lobster with cheese, and clam soup." Xi Xiu named Tang Yinning's favorite dishes as if he was reciting the dishes on the menu.

Tang Yinning was stunned and asked in surprise, "Do you like them too?"

"Yes. Can't I?" Xi Xiu looked at her dazing face and found her cute.

"Okay, that's all. Thank you." Tang Yinning handed the menu to the proprietress and smiled sweetly.

The proprietress was in her fifties. She knew that Tang Yinning was a frequent customer. It had been a long time since she saw Tang Yinning last time. She couldn't wait to say, "Long time no see, girl. I thought you left Yunjing City! You take your boyfriend today? I will definitely treat you the best today."

"Thank you. He's not my boyfriend..."

"I'm not her boyfriend. I'm her husband. Thank you!" Xi Xiu immediately interrupted Tang Yinning and introduced himself without asking if she was willing.

The proprietress gurgled and then turned around to go downstairs.

The second floor of the sidewalk snack booth was opposite the bay. It was dusk in the afternoon. The afterglow fell on the rooftop of the second floor, painting everything with dazzling color. Tang Yinning looked at Xi Xiu in front of her. At this moment, he seemed to merge with the sunset and become a beautiful painting.

Xi Xiu was very calm when he saw her staring at him like this. He even raised his eyebrows and smiled banteringly. He looked very seductive as a woman killer.

Noticing her impoliteness, Tang Yinning coughed awkwardly and looked away, "What are you going to tell me? About the lawsuit."

"The court summons has been sent to the Shengyang Company. All the documents are ready. The trial will be held next week." Xi Xiu said to Tang Yinning as if he was reporting work.

Tang Yinning nodded and said awkwardly, "But I haven't been involved in the company's affairs in the past few years. Will it be bad for me?"

"Since I'm here, you can do whatever you want." Xi Xiu was actually not interested in the Shengyang Company, but he knew that if Tang Yinning didn't relieve her rage, Chen Pojun would be like a thorn in her heart, making her sick.

Only when this thorn was pulled out could Chen Pojun be in the past tense. Xi Xiu didn't want Tang Yinning to think about other men.

He was so confident. Tang Yinning couldn't refute. Now she had to rely on him. After all, she had never managed a company. Although she majored in accounting, it was still different from doing business.

The seafood was quickly served. The seafood was still steaming, and the proprietress gave them a bottle of home-brewed plum wine for free, which was Tang Yinning's favorite.

She picked up a piece of lemon shrimp and put it in her bowl. She peeled it bit by bit while saying, "This shrimp is very delicious. I'll peel one for you."

She thought that such a big boss couldn't peel shrimp himself!

To her surprise, after she peeled one, Xi Xiu had already peeled two and put them in her bowl, which really made her awkward.

Tang Yinning was in a polite manner at the beginning, but when she was captured by delicious food gradually, she finally gave up struggling and let Xi Xiu peel shrimp and crabs for her.

It was the first time for her to eat at a sidewalk snack booth so happily. She used to peel for Chen Pojun.

Tang Yinning's appetite arose greatly while eating. She hadn't eaten so contently for a long time. Although it was just a roadside stall, it was much more down-to-earth than the Michelin.

After dinner, Xi Xiu sent her back to Yeshe Studio without Tang Yinning's notice. He even remembered to pack Du Ruoshui some food.

Looking at the lobsters and crabs, Du Ruoshui was very surprised and asked while eating, "Did you drive the supercar to eat at a roadside stall?"

"Yes." When Tang Yinning went out from the bathroom after a shower, she saw that Du Ruoshui was still eating crabs. So she said casually, "Boss Xi is very down-to-earth."

"Come on, he was experiencing life. He's not from the same class as us. How do you know him?" Du Ruoshui began to gossip.

Speaking of this, Tang Yinning's face expression immediately changed. She couldn't tell Du Ruoshui that she thought he was a gigolo and slept with him!

"Well, he's my old friend." Tang Yinning felt that this explanation was not enough and added, "We met because we had some cooperation with the Shengyang Company."

"When did you start managing the company?" Du Ruoshui kept asking.

"Just eat your crabs, you can't even shut your mouth!" After saying this, Tang Yinning focused on her phone and shut up.

Du Ruoshui chuckled. She noticed something fishy. "Hmm, I'll find out." thought she.

On the weekend, Xi Xiu didn't call or text her. Tang Yinning was not used to it. Bah, he only knew her for a few days.

However, this situation did not last long. On Monday morning, it was drizzling. Xi Xiu drove to the entrance of the Yeshe Studio and called Tang Yinning.

"Who is this?" Tang Yinning answered the phone in a daze and asked reluctantly. She was lying on her stomach in the bed.

Hearing her soft voice, Xi Xiu's heart and his tone softened, too. "I'll send you to the company to deal with the business."
