"It's not too bad … I feel quite happy. After I was born, my life became a lot more fulfilling. " She had always been a happy person, and now she didn't want to say anything more about her old life.

All the unhappy things that had happened in the past, Liuxi hoped that they would disappear with the wind and never be able to think about them again.

"Eh, I won't say anymore. Why do you want to go back to Toronto now?" Seeing that this topic was too heavy, Lin Weiwei changed the topic.

"The headquarters are over there, and An'an prefers the environment over there. It'd be good if we went back." Actually, the most important reason was still because of Chen Xiao. Since there was no news from Chen Xiao, Zeng Yi's heart was in the air, so she couldn't be at ease.

"Then you... You won't be coming back in the future? " Lin Weiwei cautiously opened her mouth and said. She knew Liu Xixi's temperament. After leaving here, she might never return.

"I don't know. It depends." Liu Xixi was sure that there was a high probability that she wouldn't return in the future, but when she saw Lin Weiwei's sad expression, she couldn't bear to say such a thing.

"You have to come back and visit us. My daughter has never seen her godmother before."

"Alright, alright. Besides, the internet is so well-developed these days. Why don't we just have more videos?" Liu Xixi comforted her.

Lin Weiwei forced a smile. "That's good …"

Before she could finish her words, she saw the color of Liu Xixi's face fade away. She felt that it was a bit strange, so she couldn't help but turn her gaze towards Liu Xixi and look towards the side of the door.

Shen Jingchen had his arm around a woman's waist. During the two months that Lin Weiwei had been at home, she had watched quite a few idols. With one glance, she could tell that this was the celebrity Gu Wanjing who had been in the limelight recently.

Liuxi covered the desolate look in her eyes and pretended as if nothing had happened as she lowered her head, continuing to eat.

Shen Jingchen's eyes glanced in the direction of Liu Xi and Lin Weiwei's meal, but it only lasted for a split-second before he acted as if nothing had happened. Out of the corner of his eye, Liu Xiya saw that Shen Jingchen's hand hadn't been lowered at all.

A group of well-dressed people walked towards the Yellow Crane Tower's private box, and in a short while, they disappeared around the corner.

Liu Xixi's mouth was no longer tasty. Her appetite had clearly been great a moment ago, but the moment she saw Shen Mo Chen, it was tasteless.

The worst thing in the world, she thought, was a man's bullshit. Not long ago, Shen had promised her that she would do whatever she wanted, but in the blink of an eye, it was with other women as well.

Lin Weiwei put down her chopsticks. Liu Xixi's change in attitude had caught her attention. "Are you alright?"

"No problem, let's continue eating." Liu Xi picked up Lin Weiwei's favorite piece of meat and placed it in her bowl. "It's been so many years. I wonder if your eating habits have changed."

"No, this litchi meat is still my favorite. "Cissy, thank you for remembering so clearly."

In less than two minutes, the hotel's lobby manager brought a portion of fish in front of Liuxi. Liuxi was puzzled, "This dish isn't ours, you served the wrong dishes."

"That's right, this is a gift from Mister Shen in the room. Mister Shen has already shaved all the fish bones." The lobby manager stood to one side with a plate of fish in his hand. It wasn't appropriate for him to place it on the table, and it wasn't appropriate for him to continue holding it.

"No need, please tell Shen Mo Chen." No need, please tell Shen Mo Chen. Liu Xixi's face turned cold, not intending to take the dish.

This man's skin was even thicker than an iron wall. He had clearly been hugging a woman just now, but now he had run over to pay his respects.

"But, Mister Shen said that if you don't accept, then I will just roll up my bed and scram." The lobby manager said bitterly. Why did he have to be the errand runner? If he was not careful, neither side would want to please him.

"Then put it down..."

The lobby manager breathed a sigh of relief. If the bed was really rolled up, then all the hard work he had put in to climb up would have all been for naught.

He placed the fish on the table, and without any business of his own, he turned around to leave. However, he was stopped by a call from Liu Xixi, "Please give this dish to Shen Mo Chen, just say it is a formal exchange."

Liu Xi Xi pointed to a plate of stir-fried bacteria. She knew that Shen Mo Chen was sensitive to such things, so she never used her chopsticks.

When she was staying at the Shen family villa, there had never been a fungus. Today, Lin Weiwei happened to like eating, so she ordered one. Now, giving it to Shen Mo Chen was the best choice.

The lobby manager's face was covered in cold sweat, but he didn't dare to offend Liu Xixi. He responded with a "yes" and continued with his work.

After they had left, Lin Weiwei was filled with doubts. "Xixi, what do you mean by 'Shen Mo Chen'?"

She could not understand what the two of them were doing now.

"I don't know. I'm probably full." Liu Xixi was not in the mood to guess Shen's thoughts. She stared blankly at the plate of fish without a fish bone. Because she was clumsy when eating fish and was often choked by fish bones, she almost never ate fish outside.

He did not expect Shen Mo Chen to be so picky. Liu Xi could not figure out what kind of trick this man was trying to pull, even though he was still carrying a soft jade in his arms.

"Tell me, is Shen Mo Chen trying to show you good will?" He's been alone for so many years. " Because the Gu family's property was related to the Zhiyuan Corporation, Gu Xi Yan had more or less heard some news about Shen Mo Chen.

"If he really wants to make peace with me, would he show up in public with a woman in his arms?" Liu Xixi asked.

Lin Weiwei did not say another word because she saw that not far away, the lobby manager was walking towards her again.

"Miss Liu, Mister Shen told me to tell you that the dishes you chose are very suitable for his taste. He asked me to serve you a cup of bird's nest and told me to watch you eat it all." Although he did not want to accept such an assignment, he did not dare disobey Shen Mo Chen's orders since his authority was still there.

His face was extremely unsightly. Although he was not a rich person, he had been promoted to the position of lobby manager for a long time and hadn't been ordered around by anyone for a long time. Now, he felt like he was back when he was a waiter.

Despite the resentment in his heart, he dared not express it. He stood upright by the side of the table, holding in his hand the bird's nest that he had said Shen Mo Chen had given him.
