Hidden Marriage 99 Days: Please Restrain Yourself Chapter 712 - Retreating Together

Chapter 712: Retreating Together

When aristocrats like these people ate, wouldn’t they be particular about how many times the cutlery was disinfected, the temperature at which food was served, nutritional balance, and so on?

Tang Xiaoge, on the other hand, was not so particular with her cooking.

As long as the ingredients were washed and the cutlery was washed and disinfected, she’d just get into the task.

The thermos flask and thermos container were newly bought. Although Tang Xiaoge would definitely clean them up, people who were obsessed with cleanliness might feel uncomfortable.

Li Beinian’s doubts were soon addressed by Tang Xiaoge.

Tang Xiaoge said, “No, I had given him some bone soup yesterday too. He drank it to the last drop. Will was quite happy and told me to boil more for him.”

As she spoke, Tang Xiaoge lowered her voice and said, “One look and you can tell that this person is very rich and very particular. That’s why I paid special attention when I did it. Anyway, since he said that you won’t have to foot the medical bills or repair fees of the car, I should make some nouris.h.i.+ng food for him. It’s also a way of thanking him.”

“Why do we not have to compensate?” Mu Xichen seemed displeased and frowned slightly. “We did something wrong and should pay for it.”

When Tang Xiaoge heard this, she stomped her feet in anger. “Are you stupid? Do you think you’re so great just because your company is big? It’s a large sum of money to have to compensate. The car and all these other expenses, it’d cost at least a few million yuan. Even if you have money, you shouldn’t spend it like this. This money is nothing to him! This little bit of money is nothing to them!”

Li Beinian caught a hint of something, and turned to look at her. “G.o.dma, do you know that Nico?”

When Tang Xiaoge heard this, it was unclear if it was intentional, but she averted her gaze and said, “How would I know him? What kind of person is he? What kind of person am I? Would I know him? I’m just guessing. With just a few words from him, Will would have plucked the stars from the sky and given them to him. If he weren’t from a wealthy family, he wouldn’t have been able to raise such a butler.”

Unconvinced, Li Beinian persisted, “What kind of wealthy family? G.o.dma, you seem to know?”

Tang Xiaoge frowned slightly and glared at her. She said confidently, “It’s always like this on TV!”

“Oh…” Li Beinian seemed to accept this explanation as her gaze fell on Mu Xichen.

Mu Xichen’s gaze deepened as he looked at Tang Xiaoge. His dark eyes were like two whirlpools, dark and unfathomable.

Li Beinian straightened her neck and sat on the bed. She seemed to have a clue when she saw Mu Xichen’s expression.

However, she did not say it aloud. Instead, she asked Tang Xiaoge, “Mom, you said that you had a foreign friend named Nico. What’s his surname?”

“How would I know his surname?” Tang Xiaoge turned around and took out the thermos flask. “I’m not a foreigner, I can’t remember such a complicated surname. I’ll bring them this food now.”

With that, she walked out.

As she did so, she shut the door behind her.

Li Beinian felt that Tang Xiaoge was acting a little strange.

It was as if… she was avoiding the topic!

She looked at Mu Xichen and came straight to the point. “Do you know Nico?”

Mu Xichen, who had been in a daze, shook his head. “No.”

“I’m sure you do.” Li Beinian was certain. “I think he knows me too. When he first saw me, his expression was a little strange.”

Mu Xichen turned frosty as he asked, “Strange? Like how?”
