Jing Yichen felt immensely relieved in his heart. As long as she wasn’t his father’s spy, all was well.

He couldn’t help but laugh at this thought. Father would surely spy on him in secret by getting someone who was cunning and at an inconspicuous position, rather than the one who was constantly by Jing Yichen’s side.

But it was clear that the man behind Shangguan Ning must be a really good friend of his father’s, otherwise she would not have been given such a high position.

So, she would be by his side every day and work with him every minute?

It seemed that the upcoming work suddenly became something to look forward to.

Jing Yichen finished his tea and said with a casual air, “It’s time for lunch. Your treat today.”

Shangguan Ning was a mild tempered woman. But today, she got worked up and burst into laughter by his repeatedly shameless behavior. “I have never met anyone who is as confident as you to ask for a treat.”

Jing Yichen didn’t feel ashamed at all. He replied in a teasing manner. “What a stingy woman! It is just lunch.”

He had turned down so many people, who begged to eat with him. And she dared to find him annoying when he asked to have lunch with her.

“You found such a high level job as soon as you lost your old one. Isn’t it fair that you treat me and I celebrate it with you?”

Shangguan Ning threw a look at him but immediately turned away.

Damn, not only was he good looking, but also blessed with a super attractive voice.

Sitting on the sofa, he looked extremely desirable. If she hadn’t been determined, stubborn and hurt by someone good-looking earlier in her life, she would probably have fallen for him at this very moment.

Shangguan Ning found herself feeling weird again. She took a deep breath, and waited till her heartbeat became stable.

Then she said calmly, “I will treat you to lunch.”

Jing Yichen nodded and stood up. “Then, Let’s go.”

Landscape Compound was located in the outskirts. It was not very populous and there were very few restaurants around.

Jing Yichen had just moved here and he never ate outside. So he had very little knowledge about the restaurants in the area. Although Shangguan Ning had lived here for more than half a year, she also had hardly eaten at any of these restaurants.

They failed to find any suitable eatery after driving around for half an hour.

Shangguan Ning had been tolerant all this while but now she burst out. “Must you be so critical about food?”

They had passed some restaurants just now and all looked nice, but Jing Yichen rejected all of them. They would not be able to eat anything if they kept saying no to every place.

“Oh well, I have a high-level taste.” Jing Yichen seemed to be in a good mood, so he said it in a teasing tone.

Shangguan Ning was totally defeated by his shamelessness. After getting to know him a little, she realised that he was cold on the surface and evil in heart.

“Hungry?” Jing Yichen asked in a gentle tone when he saw Shangguan Ning’s palm-sized face puckering.

“Hmm.” Shangguan Ning nodded.

She hesitated for a moment and said, “What about... buying some ingredients and I can make you some food at home!”

Jing Yichen’s lips curved into a smile.

After making so many efforts, the girl finally understood. That was exactly what he had been waiting to hear!

But... he couldn’t say it too conspicuously.

You can cook?”

“Yes, and I cook well too!” Shangguan Ning boasted shamelessly.

She was a bit under confident in her heart but still kept up a “I am excellent” expression on her face.

A smile hovered over Jing Yichen’s face. He had been cheated by the confidence on Shangguan Ning’s face, and raised his expectations.

The two of them entered the supermarket, picked some ingredients and went towards the cashier. There were many people in the supermarket during the lunch hour, and most of them were women.

Jing Yichen looked so extraordinarily good that many people were staring at him throughout. There were even some young girls who asked him for an autograph with flushed face – they had mistaken him for a celebrity.

Had it not been for his cold attitude, there would have been a lot more people who would have come and ask for his autograph.

Jing Yichen was used to being stared. He ignored everyone who asked him for autograph. Instead, he only focused upon picking the things in the market. He almost never went to supermarket, so this experience was fun for him.

But Shangguan Ning beside him wasn’t used to this situation. She was okay with being stared at, but they stared at her in such a piercing way as if she had done something horrible. She was feeling extremely uncomfortable.

She looked at Jing Yichen who was totally unaffected. It was his fault for being so good-looking that he attracted so many girls!

She picked some vegetables and pulled Jing Yichen away from there. She would be pierced with holes by people’s eyes if they stayed there.

Jing Yichen’s heart flowed with an unnamed emotion when the warm, gentle hand took him. He felt that it had been totally worth all that while to be stared at by those women.

It was a long queue at the cashier. Shangguan Ning was walking in front of Jing Yichen but suddenly turned around to say something to him.

But Jing Yichen walked too fast and she ended up crashing into his arms when she suddenly stopped. His chest was warm and strong, and she fell into him completely. It hurt her a bit.

When Jing Yichen felt the two “meatballs” on her chest touching him, it made his heart beat really fast.

It was of course Shangguan Ning’s front chest that hurt. But she couldn’t massage her chest in public.

Seeing her troubled face, Jing Yichen couldn’t help but chuckle.

Her white face flushed instantly. She looked up and glared at him. So he was laughing at her after he had taken advantage of her!

She grabbed the things in Jing Yichen’s hands. “Wait for me outside. I will go and pay.” She didn’t want his face to make those aunts and young girls scream any more.

She sounded dominating with this kind of imperative tone.

That was the tone Jing Yichen had hated the most before. But for some reason, he really liked her in this way. He tried hard to control himself and not touch her smooth hair. He nodded and walked out of the supermarket.

Shangguan Ning found a cashier with few customers, paid quickly and carried the things out of the supermarket.

Jing Yichen’s luxurious silver white Aston Martin was parked right at the entry of the supermarket. He was dressed in a white suit, and wearing a pair of black sunglasses. He looked like a royal person sitting on the driver’s seat in a cooly, elegant way.

The scenario was a feast for anyone’s eyes. Shangguan Ning felt that a prince was picking up a princess from the market to take her home.

Jing Yichen got out of the car, gracefully when he saw Shangguan Ning coming out of the supermarket. He took the things from her hands and placed them in the trunk. Then he pulled open the door for her, stretched out his hand to protect her head as she was going into the passenger’s seat.

Shangguan Ning couldn’t help but smile at his behaviour. She felt that Jing Yichen acted as if he was in a theater. She never expected that someone so cold could have been so gentle.

The top-notch sports car was taking the two of them through the traffic. What they didn’t notice was that someone had been watching them for a long time.
