Chapter 158


    Hearing her words, Ste raised her eyebrows, “I guess there’s no such thing.”


    “I want to go to college again too. How wonderful it was to fall in love when I was a student. I haven’t


    experienced the feeling of falling in love for a long time.”


    “I think he will decide it himself. I asked himst time and he…”


    Thinking about the conversation they had at that time, Ste couldn’t help but smile and shake her


    head.


    After the two of them chatted for a while, someone knocked on the door of the private room and the


    waiter started to serve the food.


    Just then, a figure passed by the door and subconsciously looked over. She was stunned for a while


    when he looked at them and reversed his direction, walking into the private room, “Why are you guys


    here?”


    Sherry and Ste looked up at the same time and saw that the person standing at the door was Winnie.


    Winnie had been busy shooting for her film for the past few months. When she heard that Ste having


    an ident, she had called Ste to give regards to her, but she didn’t expect to run into them when


    she had just returned.


    Ste said, “Are you eating here too?”


    “Yes, I’m eating here with …” She did not finish her sentences as she felt that it was quite awkward.


    Sheughed dryly and said, “My boss has to attend a dinner here to discuss the investment of a movie.


    So he asks me to follow him here.”


    Sherry didn’t realize at all that who was the boss she was referring to, “Then when are you going to


    finish the dinner. We will wait for you as we happen to be waiting for Ste’s brother as well.”


    Winnie’s eyes moved rapidly for a while and she smiled, “I think the dinner will end soon. I will tell them


    I’ming here ande over. You guys can eat first when Ste’s brother is here. No need to wait


    for me as I’ve already eaten quite a lot.”


    “Okay, you may go back first.”


    After Winnie left, Sherry picked up a piece of pre-dinner dessert. When she ate the food, she suddenly


    realized something.


    Winnie was an artist under Conrad Group, then wasn’t her boss…


    Sherry felt that the food in her mouth instantly became tasteless. The food dropped down from the


    chopstick and fell into the bowl.


    She felt that they were too fucking unlucky. It had been two months since they busy doing their work.


    Now they came into a restaurant rmended by a friend and they did not expect that the wretched


    man was also here.


    She slowly moved her head around to observe Ste’s reaction. She was drinking water and when she


    noticed that Sherry was gazing at her, she smiled, “What’s wrong?”


    “Hahaha, nothing. Ste, don’t just drink water. We need to wait for Chan for a while. Eat some food


    first.”


    As she spoke, she took her chopstick and kept putting vegetables into Ste’s bowl, piling up the food


    in her bowl in no time.


    Ste was speechless.


    Meanwhile, in the private room next to theirs…


    Winnie sat down and took a sip of water as she nned. Then, she used the cup of water to hide her


    facial expression and nced at the man next to her with the corner of her eyes.


    rence looked at her coldly. Without saying a word, he made Winnie have a guilty conscience.


    After sitting for a while, she guessed that she had the right emotions. She put down the water cup and


    coughed, “Mr. Conrad, everyone, I just received a phone call. Something happened to my family. I have


    to go now. Please help yourselves.”


    But she didn’t expect that when she had just picked up her bag, she heard rence’s cold voice,


    “What happened?”


    “Just… some personal matters. Thanks for your concern.”


    rence looked up at her as if he could read her mind.


    It seemed like he was saying that the look Winnie disyed didn’t look like she was having a personal


    matter.


    Winnie knew that the wretched man was not easy to deal with. She smiled, “Actually, it’s because I met


    two friends when I went out just now and I hadn’t met them for a long time, so…”


    rence said coldly, “Are you the main actor of the film or me?”


    Winnie knew that he was taunting her for having a bad working attitude and her irresponsibility.


    She was so smart to say, “I think the details that we’ve discussed just now are enough, so you can


    decide the rest of the details. I also know that my actions today are impolite. But I am very sorry. My


    friend had a bad rtionship before as she met a scum. She suffered a lot of damage physically and


    mentally. I have to gofort her and express my concern to her.”


    rence was speechless.


    He said impolitely, “I think you have nothing better to do.”


    At this time, the other people in the roomughed to ease the unsettling atmosphere, “Winnie is right. I


    think the details that we’ve discussed just now are enough. Mr. Conrad, we can discuss the rest of the


    details. We should really express our concern to them when our friends met some problems.”


    Winnie also agreed, “Yes. My friend is a nice person. She is pretty and capable, but I don’t know who


    the wretched man who is so silly to do something to hurt her feelings is.”


    rence’s temples pulsed for a moment and his handsome face disyed a cold and gloomy look.


    Before rence got angry, Winnie quickly left the room.


    When she reached the next room, Winnie even deliberately turned her head to check if rence


    suspected her before she pushed open the door.


    In the private room, Channing had already arrived.


    Channing smiled and greeted him, “Hi, handsome boy.”


    Channing remained silent as he didn’t know what to say.


    Only after Winnie sat down did Sherry ask her in a whisper, “Didn’t your boss say anything as you just


    came over like this?”


    “No, I scolded him, but I am sure that he doesn’t know what I mean.”


    Sherry smiled as if she understood Winnie’s words and picked up her ss to make a toast to Winnie.


    Channing frowned and asked Ste, “What are they talking about?”


    Ste picked up a piece of fish for him and she looked calm, “It’s their business. Leave them alone. Eat


    more.”


    Channing was speechless.


    Halfway through the meal, Ste went to the washroom.


    But what she didn’t expect was that just after she washed her hands and came out, she saw the man


    standing not far away smoking.


    ? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.


    Ste wasn’t surprised the moment she saw him.


    She slowly averted her gaze from him, pretending that she didn’t see him. She was about to leave


    when she heard the man’s low and cold voice, “Ste.”


    Ste closed her eyes and took a shallow breath before looking at him again with an extremely


    perfunctory smile, “Oh, it’s Mr. Conrad. I really didn’t expect to see you here. Are you here for dinner


    too?”


    The way she spoke to him was polite and indifferent as if they did not have a close rtionship.


    rence looked at her indifferently, “Of course.”


    “Ah… looking at your look, I thought you were going to destroy this restaurant.”


    rence was speechless.


    He put out his cigarette and he looked a bit annoyed, “Can’t you talk politely?”


    Ste’s expression gradually turned calm, “Mr. Conrad also knows that the way I speak is like this. If


    you don’t like me, you can also…”


    “Shut up.”


    “Okay.”


    Ste also had no intention of spending any more time with him there. She directly strode and left the


    ce.


    Looking at her back, rence licked his teeth. He relit a cigarette and bit it between his lips before


    smiling suddenly.


    She was still so eloquent.


    When Ste returned to the private room, Sherry asked, “Ste, what took you so


    long?”
