After being abandoned by my parents, I became a top boss

Listening to his words, Lu Nanfeng said nothing. He just picked up the fork beside him, picked up a small piece of cake and put it into his mouth.

The sweetness of the cake melted in her mouth, it was still the taste of her childhood, but now she didn't like sweets anymore.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Jiang Hengzhi said, "Why don't you ask who my sister is?"

"Didn't we meet this afternoon?" Lu Nanfeng said in a flat tone, not wanting to continue what he said.

But how could Jiang Hengzhi give up?

He looked at her with burning eyes and said earnestly, "It's not her. I have another sister."

"Then I have even less interest in knowing. After all, Mr. Jiang's family affairs have nothing to do with me." She said, putting the fork in her hand aside, "The cake is too sweet, not the taste I like."

Don't like it?

A hint of gloom flashed across Jiang Hengzhi's eyes. If she was really Xiaofeng, then after all these years of separation, how much of her childhood hobbies had she retained?

Thinking of this, a bitter smile appeared unconsciously on the corners of his lips. What does it matter how much you keep to yourself?

Even if nothing is left, as long as she is still herself and still living well in this world, it is enough.

As for those preferences, he can get to know them again in the days to come.

Thinking of this, he raised his hand, called the waiter, and said with a stern expression, "Take all these away!"

"Okay, sir."

After the waiter brought the dessert away, Jiang Hengzhi's gaze fell back on Lu Nanfeng. His expression instantly softened, and he even smiled faintly. "It's okay if you don't like it. Next time, you can tell me what you like in advance, and I'll do some research first."

"Next time?" Lu Nanfeng raised his eyebrows. "From what Mr. Jiang said, you plan to invite me to dinner more often?"

"I wonder if Mr. Lu will give me this opportunity?"

Lu Nanfeng smiled, picked up the teacup on the table and shook it gently, "Sorry, my job scope does not include accompanying Mr. Jiang for dinner."

"What if it's not work, but just friends eating together on a daily basis, is that not okay?" His dark eyes were full of anticipation, but his words were spoken with some caution.

The smile on Lu Nanfeng's face faded, and he avoided his sight. He said in a light voice, "With Mr. Jiang's connections, it shouldn't be difficult to find a dinner partner. Besides, Mr. Jiang's home is in Lucheng. Going home for dinner may also solve your current needs."

Hearing this, Jiang Hengzhi lowered his eyes, trying to calm down his inner frustration. After a while, he slowly spoke, "What I want is never a dining companion."

He has been used to being alone for so many years, so why would he need a dining companion?

What he needed, from beginning to end, was nothing more than the Jiangnan style, a Jiangnan style that no one could replace.

She is just her, the most important and inseparable person in his heart.

Although he did not say the second half of the sentence, Lu Nanfeng had already guessed it.

All he wanted was to have dinner with her, but was there any point?

We are all adults, no matter what kind of relationship they had in the past, it is all in the past.

Now, she is Lu Nanfeng, and he is no longer the Jiang Hengzhi of the past.

Why should she do something she doesn't like just to satisfy his wishes?

Besides, if I agree to have dinner with him today, does that mean I will have to move into his house tomorrow?

She doesn't want to.

The so-called excessive and unwarranted drama should be nipped in the bud.

While she was thinking about these things, the waiter had already come over with the food cart. Jiang Hengzhi had also calmed down, and when he looked up at her again, his expression was obviously a little gentler.

"These are the specialty dishes of this restaurant, including chicken stewed with mushrooms, beggar's chicken, salt-baked shrimp... I don't know if they suit your taste. If you don't like them, we can order something else."

As he spoke, he placed a plate of shelled peanuts in front of her, then calmly withdrew his hand.

Looking at the plate of peanuts in front of him, Lu Nanfeng's eyes paused slightly.

It turned out that this habit had existed for so many years, and she had never thought that he still remembered it.

Although she was in a complicated mood, she did not show it on her face. She just smiled, picked up the chopsticks, picked up a small peanut and put it in her mouth. "It's soft and tender in the mouth, and tastes good."

Jiang Hengzhi also smiled, "As long as you like it."

After that, he pointed at the other dishes as if he was presenting a treasure, and said, "Try these too. If there's anything that doesn't suit your taste, take it away."

Lu Nanfeng took a quick look and said with a smile, "Mr. Jiang, you are too polite. I am not picky about food. As long as I can eat it, it's fine."

During those years in northern Myanmar, she ate rotten food, pig food and dog food. What had she not eaten?

But later her stomach became weak and she couldn't eat spicy food, otherwise she would have eaten all of them and was easy to feed.

Jiang Hengzhi saw that she was not joking, so he stopped forcing her and just kept picking food for her.

But after a while, her bowl was already full. She finally couldn't help but ask, "Is Mr. Jiang usually so enthusiastic when he has dinner with others?"

Jiang Hengzhi was stunned for a moment, and seemed to realize his own gaffe, and said hurriedly: "I'm sorry, I didn't consider your feelings. Then, you do it yourself."

Then, during the rest of the meal, neither of them spoke again. When Lu Nanfeng finished the food in her bowl and was about to put down her chopsticks, Jiang Hengzhi pushed a plate of peeled shrimp in front of her...

"Their salt-baked shrimp is very special, would you like to try it?"

"No, I've already eaten."

Jiang Hengzhi frowned unconsciously, "Why did you only eat so little? You..."

He originally wanted to say, you are too thin, you need to eat more.

But when the words came to his lips, he felt inappropriate. They were just business partners now, and it was her freedom to eat as much as she wanted.

If he interferes too much, it will make her feel uncomfortable.

He didn't want her to feel uncomfortable, and he didn't want her to feel awkward because of him.

Just as he was about to speak again, Lu Nanfeng's voice rang out, "I don't eat much at night."

As she spoke, she stood up and said, "I'm going to the bathroom. Please enjoy your time, Mr. Jiang."

Then he lifted his feet and left his seat.

In fact, she didn't really want to go to the bathroom, but took the opportunity to leave her seat and create an opportunity for Jiang Hengzhi.

After all, she had to sit there the whole time. How could Jiang Hengzhi get the tableware she used and extract her saliva for identification?
