Rebirth in the 90s: Melting My Devoted Mr. Iceberg

Chapter 1135: Brother’s Misunderstanding

However, she hadn’t taken a few steps before she suddenly heard Nangong Chen say, "Miss Jiang, feel free to order anything you want; this meal is on me."

"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Nangong. But there’s no need, my brother is treating today, so don’t compete with him." Jiang Xue said, quickening her pace, catching up with Lu Jintian, and entering the private room at the end of the hallway.

Since Lu Jintian’s friends were quite a few, he specially booked the largest private room.

Nangong Chen only retracted his gaze after watching Jiang Xue enter the room, then instructed the restaurant manager standing nearby, "For that private room, regardless of what they order, add these dishes for me."

Nangong Chen reported the names of the dishes, the manager noted them down, and then asked, "Young Master, is there anything else you’d like me to do?"

"Put it on my account."

"Understood!"

Jiang Xue was completely unaware of Nangong Chen’s arrangements. After entering the private room with Lu Jintian, she took Little Reunion from his hands and poured a glass of water to cool it down.

At this moment, Lu Jintian looked at Jiang Xue with a complicated expression, a look of wanting to say something but holding back. Jiang Xue found it amusing and asked, "Brother, if you want to say something, just say it. Aren’t you uncomfortable holding it in like this?"

"Xue’er, you’re naughty!" Lu Jintian lightly tapped Jiang Xue’s forehead with his hand before asking, "Xue’er, are you very familiar with that Mr. Nangong we just saw?"

"Not at all!" Jiang Xue shook her head. She and Nangong Chen weren’t familiar with each other at all. They could only be said to know each other.

"Not familiar?" Lu Jintian seemed skeptical, then said, "Xue’er, didn’t you notice that the man was looking at you differently just now."

"Really, I didn’t notice." Jiang Xue wasn’t lying; she really didn’t notice. She felt that Nangong Chen was dangerous, so she stayed as far away from him as possible, let alone paid attention to his gaze.

"Xue’er, that person said you were his lifesaver, is that true?" Lu Jintian gossiped again, leaving Jiang Xue speechless, and she said, "Brother, exactly what do you want to ask? Can you just ask directly?"

Hearing this, Lu Jintian felt a little embarrassed. He knew that his thinking was wrong, but he was worried Jiang Xue was young and might take a wrong turn, so after hesitating for a moment, he spoke up, "Xue’er, I don’t mean anything else, I just don’t want you to go astray. That man and Qian Cheng are two completely different types of men, you mustn’t do anything foolish."

Jiang Xue froze, staring at Lu Jintian blankly for a long time before coming to her senses, then looked at him speechlessly and said, "Brother, what wild thoughts are you having? I’ve already told you, I’m not familiar with him at all."

"As for his recent help, I don’t think there’s any other meaning. Maybe he saw that I saved his life before, or perhaps he didn’t like that woman and took the opportunity to teach her a lesson."

"So, bro, don’t overthink it, that man obviously has deep intentions. Whatever he does, he has his own reasons."

Listening to Jiang Xue’s words, Lu Jintian felt relieved and said, "Xue’er, as long as you understand."

Jiang Xue found his expression amusing and said, "Brother, you’re underestimating your sister too much. I’m telling you, in this life, apart from Mu Qiancheng, I won’t like anyone else, so you can rest assured."

"Okay, I understand now, it was my fault this time, I misunderstood you." Lu Jintian felt awkward after hearing Jiang Xue’s words of loyalty.
