Forced Marriage: Devil CEO, Let Me Go - C227
Shi Nan was shocked and almost went forward to catch her, but he resisted. He couldn’t be soft-hearted, he couldn’t let her have hope, and then all he had done would be in vain.
Huang Meuting leaned her hands on the back of the chair, bowed her head and took a deep breath. When she stood up, a smile appeared on her face as she looked at Shi Nan, “This is the first time I’ve cooked in the kitchen. I just learned it yesterday, I don’t know if it’s to your liking. Try it.”
Shi Nan was speechless. He had never seen such a tenacious woman with such a tenacious life force. No matter how he slapped her, she wouldn’t die. He took a deep breath and sat down at the kitchen table.
Huang Meuting was overjoyed. After filling a bowl for both of them, he sat down opposite to Shi Nan. Shi Nan used his chopsticks to pick at the rice in the bowl and said, “There’s not enough water, the food is too tough!” It’s easy to get stomach problems from eating like this! ”
Xue Bao was somewhat embarrassed and didn’t know what to do. He could only let out a dry laugh and apologetically said, “Sorry, I will pay attention next time. Why don’t you try out these dishes first and see if you can eat them?”
As he said that, he picked up a piece of meat and put it into his mouth. Just as he placed it in his mouth, he could not help but spit it out. “So salty!”
He then tried out the second round. “So spicy!” Her face was red to the extreme as she watched Shi Nan’s hand freeze in midair, unable to move. She jumped to her feet, snatched the chopsticks from his hands, and began to clear the table.
“Sorry, there’s still some left in the fridge, I’ll cook it again. You go take a bath first.” She was so anxious that her eyes were red. She really regretted not having tried it out just now. This way, Shi Nan would feel that he was just a useless daughter of a rich family!
Shi Nan quietly entered the kitchen and said from behind, “Go get all the dishes, I’ll cook them.”
Huang Meuting looked back at him and obediently went to the fridge to pick up the dishes she had bought. Shi Nan took over her job and skillfully started preparing dinner.
Huang Meding could not help but be a little dazed as she thought about how happy she would be if she could stay in the kitchen with him every day to prepare dinner and live a normal life together.
“Take the dishes out.” Shi Nan turned his head to look at her, but Huang Meuting showed no reaction. It was as if he turned to look at her again. Seeing him staring blankly at her with a faint smile on his face, it was easy to guess what she was thinking.
“Miss Huang!” He shouted at the top of his lungs, “What is it?”
“I told you to take the dishes out.” Shi Nan couldn’t stand it any longer and repeated that he hadn’t seen anyone who was still in a trance after cooking.
Huang Meding followed his instructions and brought the dishes out. After setting up the tableware, she walked in and stood beside him saying, “Since you know how to cook, why don’t you cook normally? Eating bubbles is bad for your body, and you can’t eat to your heart’s content. ”
“One doesn’t want to cook.” It was always very casual to eat alone, and it was not easy to cook either. He really would rather eat fast food, eat instant noodles, since he had never cooked at home before.
“How can you be like this? Eat fast food at noon and instant noodles at night. That will ruin your body.” No matter how busy she was, she couldn’t afford to miss her meal.
Shi Nan felt a bit of warmth in his heart when he saw her concerned expression. After all, very few people cared about him here. However, the expression on his face remained calm. “We only eat occasionally. Most of the time, we have to accompany our customers to eat.”
“I don’t care! Anyway, you’re not allowed to eat instant noodles anymore, understand? ” Seeing her barbaric look, Shi Nan couldn’t help but laugh to himself as he lowered his head to continue eating.
Huang Meding also picked up her chopsticks and looked at the fragrant and colourful dishes on the table. After she tried one piece, a big smile appeared on her face: “The dishes you cooked were very delicious. I didn’t expect you to be so good at cooking. Who taught you that?”
Shi Nan cast a sidelong glance at her and said coldly, “A country bumpkin like me would of course cook. I’m not like expensive girls like you who only know how to eat. There will be someone to serve them for their entire life.”
“You’re making fun of me again.” Huang Meuting pouted and stared at him: “Shi Nan, can you not always use my identity to ridicule me? Being born in a rich family is not my choice, and I’m already trying to be an ordinary girl. ”
Shi Nan replied without raising his head, “I just want to remind you to pay attention to your own identity, and do as your mother says.” It would be better for you to find a well-matched rich man to marry. ”
“You are not a god! “How do you know that’s good for me?” Huang Meding slapped her chopsticks on the table in frustration and glared at him, “You’re not me, how do you know what kind of life I like?”
Shi Nan was shocked by her sudden discontent. He raised his eyes and glanced at her before continuing to eat his bowl of rice.
“Shi Nan! I’m talking to you! ” Huang Meuting angrily shouted at Shi Nan.
Shi Nan raised his head, put down his chopsticks, and stared at her. He calmly said, “Miss Huang, I feel that there’s nothing much to say to you. You just need to remember one thing. I, Shi Nan, cannot marry you.”
“Is it because I’m the daughter of a rich family?” Tears welled up in Huang Meding’s eyes.
“Feelings are what’s important to you. I don’t like you at all. You know what you’re doing. Eat quickly. I’ll send you back after you finish eating.” Shi Nan lowered his head and continued eating. He couldn’t bear to hurt her, but what Mrs Huang said last night kept ringing in his ears, forcing him to do so. With his high self-esteem, he definitely would not allow others to beat him up.
“No need! Mr. Shi! “No matter how lowly and despicable I am, I still have a limit. From today onwards, I won’t harass you anymore!” Finishing her words, Huang Meuting turned and ran away, covering her mouth with her hands, leaving behind only a string of wuwu sounds.
He had hurt her again, sitting at the kitchen table, listening to her cry go away. He shook his head and took a deep breath. Looking at the dishes on the table, he suddenly lost his appetite.
In his heart, from the moment Huang Meuting showed her interest in him, he had instinctively rejected her. No matter what she did, she felt it was too inconvenient. Was it really because of her identity?
If she was just an ordinary girl, would he still reject her so much? He wouldn’t even give her a chance!
Huang Meding sat in front of the mirror and stared blankly at herself. She didn’t understand why she was so detestable. It was worth it for Shi Nan to say those harsh words to hurt him time and time again.
He had just decided this morning that he was going to stick it out, but now he felt like he had no more face to stick it out. In the end, she still had some self-respect. Before this, she had already lowered herself to cater to him.
“Beautiful.” Mrs. Huang’s voice came from the door, and Huang Meuting quickly wiped away the tears in her eyes. Just as she finished wiping them away, Mrs. Huang walked in, holding a red evening gown.
“Mei-Ting, the dress has been prepared. Let’s try it out and see if it looks good.” Mrs. Huang came to her side and pulled her out of her chair.
“Mom, leave it here. I’ll try again later.” Huang Meting replied without the slightest emotion.
Madam Huang shook her head and smiled, “There are still about ten days before you take over the company. When the time comes, there will be a celebration party, and you will be the main character. Madam Zhu and I have already discussed it and their party will be pushed back so that you and Young Master Zhu can get to know each other at the celebration party. It will be more lively this way.”
“Mom, do we have to get to know that Young Master Zhu?” Huang Meding called out unhappily.
“It’s just that I wanted you to know her, and I don’t want you to marry her. Why are you in such a hurry?” Mrs. Huang said with a smile as she stuffed the clothes into her arms, “Quickly go and try out the dress. If it’s not good, you have to go and change it as soon as possible.
“Oh.” Huang Meuting answered obediently and walked into the locker room with her gown. After a while, she came out of the dressing room in a red evening dress. She looked very beautiful.
Mrs Huang could not contain her joy and nodded repeatedly as she praised, “Alright! “There really is a bit of a queen’s style. The next generation heir of the Huang Family, Mei Ting, this gown looks really good on you.”
“But, Mom …” “Why do I feel like I only wear red when I get married?” Huang Meuting scratched her head, feeling uncomfortable all over.
Thus, Huang Meting turned to Madam Huang and asked: “Mom, can you raise the collar a little more?”
Mrs. Huang did not understand. She looked at her collar and asked, “Why? Isn’t that great? “There’s no need to change it!”
“Oh.” Looking at her reflection in the mirror, she suddenly thought of her poor sister, Meiyu. She turned to look at Madam Huang and asked, “Oh right, Mom, how are you going to split the shares of the company?”
“30% are shareholders, and the remaining 70% are in my name. Now, I’ll naturally transfer them all to your name.” Madam Huang carried it out and helped her to straighten the hem of her skirt.
“Mom, this won’t do!” Huang Meding quickly followed and squatted down, pulling her sister’s hand as she anxiously said, “Mom, you should let me be half with sister, or maybe I can be a little less. Anyway, I didn’t do anything for the company, that’s what’s fair.”
“That won’t do, your father single-handedly created the Huang family, we can’t give any of it to her.” Madam Huang rejected without the slightest hesitation.
“But, my sister has been working for the company for the past few years. The company will get such a good profit, my sister has done a lot of work. Furthermore, back then she didn’t intend to kill Father, she was innocent … ”
“Alright!” “Don’t say anymore. I’ve already prepared all the documents and am only waiting for your signature to take effect.” Madam Huang interrupted her. She did not want to hear any word about what had happened that year. That would be an eternal pain in her heart!
Huang Meuting followed her and stood up, tugging at her arm as she pleaded, “Even if you don’t give your sister so much, let’s cut it short. Please, mom …” She’s my own sister, and I don’t want to see her sad. ”
“She asked for it herself!” Madam Huang shouted angrily. She works for the company and I’ve already paid her according to the high salary. What else is there for her to be unhappy about? ”
“Mom, please.” Huang Meding clasped her hands in supplication as she stared at her.
“Alright, I’ll think about it again. You don’t need to worry about this matter, rest early.” After saying so, Madam Huang once again glanced at her clothes, telling her that she had to take good care of them before leaving in peace.
