“What did you say to my colleague just now?” Ning Sheng asked.

Lu Chu Yao tilted his head, “She asked me if I needed help.”.

He had always kept a respectful distance from this type of woman. He could tell what they were thinking and their various desires just by looking into their eye. Unlike the woman in front of him, whose eyes were so clear he could only see his reflection.

“You don’t need any help. Let’s go and buy some groceries.” Ning Sheng said lightly.

Ning Sheng always had an air of calmness about her.

Lu Chu Yao glanced at her and pulled her hand over and held it tightly, “Let’s go. We’ll eat outside today.”

He pulled the suspicious Ning Sheng to a restaurant, but she stopped when she saw the restaurant.

This was the most famous restaurant in C city, and it was very expensive.

One meal was worth a month of Ning Sheng’s salary.

“Lu Chu Yao, are you aware of the fact that we do not have any money now? What were you thinking trying to come to such a place?” Ning Sheng said sternly, although there was a hint of a sarcasm in her seriousness.

Lu Chu Yao gestured slightly, “Look.”

Ning Sheng turned around and saw the sign at the door, “Valentine’s Day offer. All couples will receive a discount! Discount starts from 90%!”

“I see. So it was because there is an offer?”

Yet, Ning Sheng could not believe it. 90% was too much of a discount.

There was no customer when the two of them entered the restaurant. Ning Sheng surprised by this, looked at Lu Chu Yao and asked, “Is this restaurant closing down? Why is there no customer at all?”.

“I think so,” Lu Chu Yao nodded in agreement.

The waiter at the side lowered his head and didn’t say a word. The other onlookers who knew the truth were secretly suffering on the inside. This was Lu Chu Yao’s F&B company. Is it really appropriate for him to curse his own company?

The restaurant was designed in a primitive style, simple yet elegant, creating an elegant and warm feeling. The ceiling lamp gave it a retro atmosphere.

“Lu Chu Yao, this is my first time eating here.” Ning Sheng said innocently.

The money she used for college was from her own scholarship. After she started working, all the money she earned went to her parents. The money she left after all of that was not even for food and clothes, let alone for eating at such a high-end place.

“I’ll bring you to eat all the good food in the future.” Lu Chu Yao’s expression softened.

The dishes were served one after another. Ning Sheng looked at the dishes in front of her and suddenly felt that the dishes she had made the previous day were unsightly.

Something crossed Ning Sheng’s mind and she looked up at Lu Chu Yao, “Lu Chu Yao, did you live like this in the past?”

“What?” Lu Chu Yao was slightly shocked. Did Ning Sheng figure out his identity?

“You eat and drink well with rich ladies, wear branded suits, and look like an elite no matter where you go, right?” Ning Sheng felt that Lu Chu Yao had made a mistake by marrying her.

“After I married you, I can’t remember my previous life.” Lu Chu Yao’s tone was indifferent as he casually picked up a piece of meat and placed it in front of Ning Sheng. What he said didn’t seem to be a lie.

“We’re probably too poor.” Ning Sheng concluded.

On the other side, Lin Shang, who had been sneaking around, almost spat out.

He started thinking how Ning Sheng thought was really ridiculous. If Lu Chu Yao was classified as poor, then the rest of the world would be so poor that they couldn’t even feed themselves. It seemed like Miss Ning Sheng really have no clue how powerful the man she had married was.

Lin Shang also happened to notice the ring on Ning Sheng’s finger. It was a relic that his president’s mother had left for him. It was said that it was a top-grade diamond made by the best diamond-cutting master in the world. There was no other one like it in the world.
