Chapter 465: An Old Acquaintance
Chapter 465: An Old Acquaintance
Many passers-by saw it and started talking about it in low voices.
After all, one of them is handsome and the other is beautiful. Not to mention supporting each other, even just standing there, they look particularly well-matched.
"Oh, look at this couple now, they are so intimate on the street in broad daylight."
"I have to say it, they are such a perfect match. How did they come together to be so good-looking?"
"Look at his clothes, he must be rich or noble, he must be from a wealthy family, even his wife is the daughter of a wealthy family."
……
Both of them had good hearing and naturally heard the discussions, but they blushed and hurried into the restaurant without explaining.
The waiter came forward and greeted them enthusiastically: "What would you like to eat, my two guests? Please feel free to sit in the hall."
Fu Mingchuan said, "Come to the upper room."
"Okay, you and I will go upstairs."
As they spoke, they were taken to a room on the second floor by two people.
After Su Lanyin sat down, she bent down to check her ankle. It was indeed a little red and swollen, but the injury was only on the outside. She had to lift her foot up to see it clearly, which was a bit awkward.
Seeing this, Fu Mingchuan said worriedly: "If you don't mind, I can help you check it carefully. I also have research on this kind of sprain."
"Research?"
"Yes, long-term illness makes a doctor. I often read medical books. Over time, I have a good understanding of some injuries and illnesses."
"I see. Thank you for your help, Brother Fu."
"No need to be polite to me."
As he said that, he knelt on one knee in front of her, carefully took her foot in his hand, and then lifted her trouser leg a little to check the sprained part.
After touching and pressing it, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, there are no broken bones, just some redness and swelling. I'll apply a hot towel when I get home, and I'll be back to normal tomorrow."
"Well, thank you, Brother Fu."
"You order first, I'll go get you some safflower oil."
"Ah? That's not necessary...right?"
Before Su Lanyin could finish her words, Fu Mingchuan rushed out and quickly went to buy some medicinal wine to reduce her swelling.
Moreover, he left in such a hurry that he even forgot to close the door.
The waiter came in and put down the menu, then said, "Sir, take a look at what you would like to eat. All the dishes in our restaurant are delicious and we guarantee that you will be satisfied."
Su Lanyin didn't bother to check the menu, and said perfunctorily, "Then please serve three of your signature dishes."
The waiter put away the menu and asked: "Sir, do you have any dietary restrictions? Or do you not eat onions, ginger, garlic, etc?"
"No, just do as you see fit. By the way, is there a pharmacy nearby?"
"A pharmacy? There's one at the other end of this street. All the others have to go to other streets."
"That's quite far..."
"Isn't it? What's wrong, sir? Are you feeling unwell?"
"No, no, please help me get the food served quickly."
"Okay, wait a minute!"
The waiter took the menu and ran downstairs, also forgetting to close the door.
Su Lanyin was somewhat helpless, muttering: "Why don't you close the door? It's right next to an aisle, with people coming and going..."
She limped over and was about to close the door when she looked up and saw Fu Wuyang and Shen Ruchu walking towards her.
It was clear that they all saw each other.
Su Lanyin got so nervous that she slammed the door shut.
She looked at the door in front of her, feeling confused.
what am i doing?
Why don't I just say hello?
Isn't it too obvious to close the door suddenly like this?
She just felt that she had exposed her guilty conscience and was worried about what the other party would think of her.
Little did he know that at this moment Fu Wuyang's face had turned dark and gloomy.
What's wrong with this woman?
You don't even bother to say a word to him when you see him?
He is so heartless!
He was a little angry and wanted to rush up and knock on the door, but Shen Ruchu behind him pulled his sleeve.
"Your Majesty, maybe Miss Su didn't notice us. Why don't we not disturb her? What if she is having dinner with someone else?"
Fu Wuyang frowned. What do you mean by didn't notice? Just now, the two of them could be said to have looked into each other's eyes!
Besides, who was she dining with that required her to close the door?
"Since we are old acquaintances, it would be wrong not to say hello."
After saying that, he walked up and knocked on the door.
Su Lanyin heard the knock on the door in front of her, her heart beat faster and she swallowed nervously.
Should I open the door?
As she was hesitating, the door was knocked.
Only then did she realize that she had not locked the door, she had only closed it.
The two stood at the door, staring at each other in a daze, feeling a lump in their throats for a moment.
Fu Wuyang opened his mouth but was stuck. After a long while, he asked, "Why are you here?"
Su Lanyin smiled and said, "I...come to eat."
She immediately felt extremely regretful!
What do you mean by coming to eat? Nonsense! If you come to a restaurant but don’t eat, do you mean you have to wash the dishes?
As she complained, she forced a smile and looked expectantly at Shen Ruchu, hoping that she could relieve the awkward atmosphere.
Receiving her gaze, Shen Ruchu smiled indifferently, walked forward and took Fu Wuyang's arm.
"Miss Su, do you still remember me?"
The awkward situation was broken. Su Lanyin looked at her gratefully and said hurriedly, "Remember, Miss Shen is the prince's fiancée, right?"
She felt a little uncomfortable after saying this, but there was nothing she could do.
After all, the facts are there. Fu Wuyang will soon be able to marry a wife who is better and more powerful than her.
But for her, it was just a dream of prosperity after all.
"Fiancée?" Fu Wuyang frowned and asked coldly, "Who told you that she is my fiancée?"
Su Lanyin just found it funny and retorted: "Your Highness, have you forgotten that you admitted it yourself before?"
"what?"
He was stunned, wondering if he had really said something like this in a fit of anger?
"Don't talk nonsense, Ruchu and I..."
He was about to explain when Shen Ruchu interrupted him: "Did Miss Su come with a friend? Why is there no one in the room? Could it be that she knew Wu Yang and I were coming, so she followed us?"
Su Lanyin frowned, vaguely feeling that Shen Ruchu was full of hostility towards her. It seemed that he had not provoked her, right?
Thinking of this, her face turned cold: "Who I come with seems to be none of Miss Su's business. You should keep an eye on the road and don't look into other people's houses. As for whether I followed you, it depends on who came in first. It's obviously me. Could it be that you followed me secretly?"
Shen Ruchu was speechless. Although he still had a smile on his face, his eyes were much sharper.
"Miss Su, you are joking. The prince and I were watching a play and drinking tea and we were a little hungry, so we came out to find something to eat. Why would I follow you?"
"Since no one is following anyone, let's just eat our own food. You guys treat me?"
Su Lanyin was ordering them to leave, but unfortunately, the two of them didn't even get in the door.
