I Became the Male Lead's Stepmother After Transmigrating Novel - Chapter 68

Chapter 68: I Saw Madam

Xiang Xiaoyuan mimicked Lu Bei and clenched her fist in a threatening manner. “Don’t you know that I’m his stepmother?”

Wei Zihang: “…”

He shut his mouth completely.

The corners of Xu Xiyao’s mouth curled up slightly.

Xiang Xiaoyuan brought them to a high-class restaurant. After entering a private room, she said to them, “Don’t be polite. Order whatever you want.”

Of course, she added in her heart, it’s best not to order anything too expensive.

At the same time, Gao Yuan accompanied Lu Wanggui to dinner. When he went to the bathroom, he suddenly saw a familiar figure. He thought his eyes were playing tricks on him, but when he saw Lu Bei behind him, he was sure that his eyes were not playing tricks on him. He quickly returned to the private room and stood behind Lu Wanggui. He said in a low voice, “CEO Lu, Madam also came to this restaurant, along with Young Master, the young master of the Wei family, and an unknown boy.”

Lu Wanggui didn’t even raise his head and asked, “Which private room?”

Gao Yuan reported the private room number that he had secretly seen.

A few minutes later, Lu Wanggui stood at the door of the private room. His well-defined fingers knocked on the door three times before he pushed the door open and entered. Wei Zihang who was sitting in a relaxed manner instantly sat up straight and didn’t move at all.

Lu Wanggui took a seat beside Xiang Xiaoyuan. His gaze swept across the menu in Xiang Xiaoyuan’s hand and asked, “What did you order?”

Xiang Xiaoyuan handed the menu to him and asked, “Why are you here?”

“A business partner is treating us to a meal.”

Lu Wanggui took the menu and glanced at it briefly. He then looked up at the three people sitting across from him. His gaze paused on Lu Bei for a few seconds before he lowered his head again. “Add a few more dishes.”

Xiang Xiaoyuan looked at him with sparkling eyes. “Are you going to reimburse me?”

Lu Wanggui held his forehead helplessly and nodded lightly.

“Then I won’t be polite!” Xiang Xiaoyuan rolled up her sleeves. After consulting the opinions of the three people across from her, she began to add more dishes. In order to show her respect to the person who was treating her, she would also ask Lu Wanggui’s opinion in a low voice before adding each dish.

Of course, Lu Wanggui did not have any opinions. No matter which one Xiang Xiaoyuan pointed at, he would only answer with a ‘yes’.

One person asked and the other replied harmoniously.

Wei Zihang looked at Lu Bei, who was playing with his phone, and then looked at Xu Xiyao, who was sitting on the chair like an old monk meditating. He lamented in his heart, “Why should a young man like him sit here and watch a married couple publicly display their affection!

No, he could no longer stay in this private room.

After thinking for a while, he kicked Xu Xiyao under the table, then stood up and said, “Uncle Lu, Aunty, I need to go to the bathroom first.”

Xu Xiyao sat there without moving. Wei Zihang felt that Xu Xiyao did not understand his actions just now, so he pulled him up and said, “Didn’t you just say that you want to go to the bathroom? Let’s go together.”

Xu Xiyao: “…”

He wanted to say that he did not say that he wanted to go to the bathroom, but when he met Wei Zihang’s crazy blinking eyes, he silently got up.

Xiang Xiaoyuan watched as they walked out of the private room one after another. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and her eyes were filled with joy.

Lu Wanggui turned his head to look at her and explained to Xiang Xiaoyuan, “It’s rare to see boys go to the bathroom hand in hand. It’s quite interesting.”

Lu Bei: “…”

Once Wei Zihang and Xu Xiyao left, only the Lu family of three were left in the private room.

Xiang Xiaoyuan flipped through the menu to confirm the final dish. Lu Bei and the others were just in a growing phase, and their appetites were big. In addition, they had been busy all day today, so their appetites were even better than usual.

Anyway, Lu Wanggui was paying today. It was a rare opportunity to rip him off, so Xiang Xiaoyuan wouldn’t be polite. “Do you want to eat steamed abalone? And this lobster looks pretty good too.”

These two dishes were the restaurant’s signature dishes. They heard that the lobster was shipped over by air. The taste was very delicious, and the price was also very beautiful.

Lu Wanggui was as gentle as usual. “Order if you want to eat.”

Xiang Xiaoyuan: “Okay!”

Although Lu Wanggui would agree no matter what she asked, Xiang Xiaoyuan would always ask before ordering each dish. This was the most basic respect for the big boss who paid the bill.

The two of them confirmed the menu in a low voice. When they were almost done ordering, she remembered that there was another person in the private room. She closed the menu and handed it over. “Lu Bei, do you have anything else that you want to add?”

It was said that stepmothers and stepson were enemies. It was a relationship that could not be reconciled no matter what. However, Xiang Xiaoyuan and Lu Bei gave this kind of relationship another possibility.

Xiang Xiaoyuan treated Lu Bei as a roommate, while Lu Bei treated Xiang Xiaoyuan as a classmate. They respected each other and did not cross the line. Xiang Xiaoyuan, an outsider, did not have much hope for this marriage, so it was impossible for her to have any ill intentions toward Lu Bei. Moreover, she knew that Lu Bei was the main character. If she still went against Lu Bei, how stupid would she be?
