illicit relationship

Chapter 1269: Cloud Restaurant

Nalan Jiangge was about to meet her business partner. It was her important business partner, so she was annoyed when her car suddenly broke down.

Of course, she had tried to call her husband, but he was currently attending an important meeting, so he could not help her.

Yun Xin Er was also attending a live TV Show, and her assistant took a day off because her mother had an incident.

‘It would be bad if I’m late because we are about to discuss important project.’

Nalan Jiangge turned her head when a Lamborghini car suddenly stopped.

‘Why did that car stop?’

She still had no idea that Xiao Tian was the owner of the Lamborghini.

Nalan Jiangge was startled when she saw Xiao Tian getting out of his car.

‘Xiao Tian?’

She did not expect to meet him in that place.

Xiao Tian, who was walking towards Nalan Jiangge, kept asking in his head.

‘Oi, Xiao Tian. What are you doing? What if she yells at you like usual? What if she gets upset later? You still remember your relationship with her, right?’

The closer he was to Nalan Jiangge, the muddled his mind was.

Xiao Tian stopped his footsteps when he was in front of Nalan Jiangge.

*Silence…

They only looked at each other without saying a single word.

*One second…Two seconds…Three seconds…

After looking at each other for several seconds, Nalan Jiangge broke out of the silence. “Xiao Tian, what are you doing here?”

“It seems like your car broke down, so I want to offer some help. But I will leave immediately if you don’t need my help.” Xiao Tian felt awkward.

Nalan Jiangge was startled.

Sure, they had quite a good relationship when he pretended to be Yun Xin Er’s bodyguard, but she had caused a lot of trouble for him.

She did not answer immediately and shifted her gaze from Xiao Tian to her car. 

She had to meet her business partner immediately, so Xiao Tian’s offer would solve her problem.

Xiao Tian felt even more awkward when Nalan Jiangge did not say a word and only looked at him.

‘Damn it, Xiao Tian! You should have guessed it! She doesn’t like you being close to her daughter, so your good intentions are useless. It seems like you are trying to win her heart to get her daughter.’

At this moment, he thought Nalan Jiangge would refuse his offer.

To his surprise, she walked towards his car.

‘Hm?’

Xiao Tian was startled.

He did not know why Nalan Jiangge suddenly walked towards his car.

But what surprised him most was that Nalan Jiangge immediately opened the car door before finally getting into his car.

When Nalan Jiangge saw Xiao Tian did not move from his place, she immediately said, “Shi Hao, what are you doing there? Didn’t you say you wanted to help me?”

Even though she had a complicated relationship with Xiao Tian, she accepted his offer because she needed it.

Xiao Tian tilted his head to the left.

‘Shi Hao?’

He did not understand why Nalan Jiangge didn’t call him by his real name.

Shi Hao was his fake name when he pretended to be Yun Xin Er’s bodyguard. He never used it again after that.

He just did not expect her to call him using his fake name.

‘Well, Shi Hao is also my name.’

He immediately got into his car.

“Where do you want to go?” Xiao Tian inquired.

“Cloud Restaurant.” Nalan Jiangge responded, “I have appointment with my business partner at Cloud Restaurant.”

“Alright.” Even though Xiao Tian never went to Cloud Restaurant, but he knew where the Cloud Restaurant was.

Cloud Restaurant was like Autumn Restaurant. It was a restaurant for rich people because the price of food and drink at Cloud Restaurant was costly.

Of course, the price was commensurate with the luxury of the restaurant and the taste of the food.

After driving for about forty-five minutes, they finally arrived at Cloud Restaurant.

“We have arrived.” Xiao Tian did not know how to address Nalan Jiangge.

When he pretended to be Yun Xin Er’s bodyguard, he called her madam Nalan. However, he was Xiao Tian now, so he did not know how to call her.

Nalan Jiangge instantly got out of the car.

“Then I will leave now.” Xiao Tian wanted to leave because he was hungry.

Sure, they were in front of the restaurant, but he did not want to eat there because he would feel awkward later.

When Xiao Tian was about to leave, Nalan Jiangge uttered, “Why do you want to leave immediately? Follow me. This is a good chance for you to expand your connection.”

Even though Nalan Jiangge disliked Xiao Tian, but he was currently Shi Hao, not Xiao Tian. That was why she wanted to help him expand his connection.

Xiao Tian, no, Shi Hao had helped her, so she wanted to return the favor.

At first, Xiao Tian wanted to refuse, but he changed his mind because this was an excellent opportunity to get closer to Nalan Jiangge and get a connection with a rich person.

Then Xiao Tian and Nalan Jiangge headed to the VIP room. The VIP room was located on the highest floor, the third floor.

The VIP room was like the dining room of a mansion, huge and decorated with luxurious furniture.

There was a round table in the middle of the room with ten chairs surrounding it. 

And as if the decorator wanted to make the room look even more luxurious, he placed a crystal led ceiling chandelier right above the table.

Not only that but there was also a red couch behind the round table as if the decorator prepared that sofa for customers who wanted to relax on the couch. 

Of course, there were fancy lamps on each side of the sofa.

‘This room is not bad.’

Xiao Tian nodded his head in satisfaction.

The VIP room was only for one family or group, so they could keep their privacy.

‘Did she order in advance?’

Xiao Tian looked at Nalan Jiangge before returning his attention to the table again.

There was red wine and many kinds of food on the table. If anyone saw it, they would know immediately that these foods were very expensive.

Instead of sitting on the couch or chair, Xiao Tian walked towards the big window.

‘I can see many buildings from here.’

He was sure the view would be better at night.

Unlike Xiao Tian, Nalan Jiangge sat on the couch. “Shi Hao, I heard you managed to raise your family status to an upper-class family. Tell me, how can you raise your family status so quickly like that?”

Xiao Tian turned around.

He showed his charming smile before finally replying, “I’m just lucky.”

“Luckly, huh?” at this moment, Nalan Jiangge thought Xiao Tian did not want to tell her about it.

*Silence…

The VIP room turned into a dead silence.

Both Xiao Tian and Nalan Jiangge did not know what to say. 

Of course, he wanted to break out of the silence, but he did not know what to say. He could not think anything whenever he was with Nalan Jiangge.

‘Sigh. Maybe it’s because our complicated relationship.’

Xiao Tian was still standing behind the window.

At this moment, Nalan Jiangge’s business partner entered the VIP room.

‘Hmm?’

Xiao Tian was startled when he saw Nalan Jiangge’s business partner.
