The Wife Contract And Love Covenants - Chapter 16
016 Ask her to serve
Bei Mingye was still reading the script, completely ignoring the gazes of others.
If he didn’t smoke cigars, he would occasionally pick up the glass to taste a few sips of red wine. Every time the wine was almost empty, Mingke would pick up the bottle and fill it up for him.
Time passed by minute by minute. As everyone waited, half an hour later, Bei Mingye closed the script and handed it to Yi Yang, who immediately put it in his briefcase after taking it.
Bei Mingye’s eyes fell on the dishes on the table, and he glanced at everyone. Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: “Why don’t you eat?”
Xu Nianhua and the vice president of their literary club hurriedly smiled and immediately invited everyone to eat.
Mingke also picked up the chopsticks, lowered his head and slowly ate.
Xu Nianhua saw that she was only concerned with eating, and didn’t communicate with Mr. Bei Ming beside her at all, and kept winking at her, hoping that she could receive some signals.
But Mingke made him desperate this time. No matter how he sent her a signal, she seemed to see nothing. She only cared about eating and ignored everything else.
Xu Nianhua had no choice but to give Xiao Xiang a hint.
Xiao Xiang was a little shy. When facing this super handsome guy, she felt a lot of pressure.
She stood up and took the initiative to pick up food for Bei Mingye and put it in his bowl. Although Mingke was in between, it was not easy to do it. However, someone had to greet him:
“This is the most famous sweet and sour pork ribs in our school. Mr. Bei Ming, please try it and see how it tastes.”
Bei Mingye frowned slightly, and Yi Yang immediately called the waiter to change a new bowl for him.
This action made Xiao Xiang blush immediately. She looked back at Xu Nianhua, feeling uneasy.
Xu Nianhua shook his head at her, knowing that those rich people have some strange problems, such as mysophobia. It was probably because Xiao Xiang had used chopsticks before, and he thought it was not clean when he picked up food for him.
In fact, Xiao Xiang really felt very wronged. She had not even touched the chopsticks she used. If she had touched them, how could she dare to pick up food for Mr. Bei Ming?
Although Yi Yang’s behavior was quite rude, no one dared to think too much because of Bei Mingye’s noble status.
And because Bei Mingye was not a talkative person, no matter what Xu Nianhua and the vice president said to him, he just looked indifferent. When he was happy, he hummed, and when he was unhappy, he didn’t even pay attention, which made everyone very embarrassed and the meal was extremely unnatural.
I don’t know if the food didn’t suit Bei Mingye’s appetite. He rarely moved his chopsticks throughout the meal, and later he even put his chopsticks down directly, which made everyone nervous.
Finally, Xu Nianhua called the waiter again, changed a new table of dishes, looked at Bei Mingye, and smiled flatteringly: “We don’t know what Mr. Bei Ming likes to eat. If Mr. Bei Ming has his own favorite dishes, you can tell me and I will have someone send it to him immediately.”
Bei Mingye ignored him, but his eyes fell on Mingke beside him.
She was still lowering her head, and she had eaten most of a bowl of rice. It looked like she was almost full.
The guests didn’t move their chopsticks, but she was full. This girl really doesn’t understand the ways of the world.
The corners of his lips slightly raised, and a barely visible smile overflowed.
But this smile was still caught by Xu Nianhua. He hurriedly looked at Mingke, smiling a little anxiously: “Keke, introduce the special dishes here to Mr. Bei Ming and see what he likes to eat.”
“Oh.” Mingke seemed to react, responded, and picked up a piece of small green vegetables and put it in Bei Mingye’s bowl.
This action immediately made the other people frown.
Didn’t she see Xiao Xiang picking up food for Bei Mingye just now? She dared to do the same stupid thing when the other party changed the bowl immediately. It can be seen that she was really absent-minded just now. I don’t know what she was thinking about. She didn’t even notice this.
“Waiter.” Xu Nianhua immediately called out.
After the waiter came in, he was about to say something, but a miracle happened again, and an unexpected scene appeared in their sight.
I saw Bei Mingye picked up the chopsticks, picked up the small green vegetable and put it in his mouth. He chewed it twice and swallowed it directly. He seemed to be satisfied.
Xu Nianhua was stunned, the vice president and Xiao Xiang were also dumbfounded, and even Yi Yang was slightly stunned. I don’t know what happened at the moment.
So many people were shocked, only Mingke didn’t react.
Seeing him start eating, she put another corn pearl ball into his bowl, then lowered her head and continued to eat her own.
Everyone looked at the corn ball in Bei Mingye’s bowl, feeling a little uneasy. Xu Nianhua waved his hand slightly and asked the waiter to leave.
As soon as the door closed, Bei Mingye picked up the ball with chopsticks and put it into his mouth, still eating with relish.
Xu Nianhua couldn’t help but whispered: “Keke, pick up some food for Mr. Bei Ming.”
Mingke felt a little annoyed and couldn’t help but turn her head and roll her eyes at Bei Mingye.
It was a subconscious action, but she didn’t realize that all these people’s eyes were on her, and of course they saw her rolling her eyes.
Xu Nianhua panicked, Xiao Xiang was also scared, and even the vice president was scared and dared not move.
Mingke was usually very sensible. Even if he was never a passionate person in such occasions, at least he knew the etiquette.
However, today, she knew that the man sitting next to her was the most distinguished man in Dongling. If he stamped his feet casually, the whole Dongling would tremble for three days. Facing such a person, she dared to be so ignorant. Was she scared and didn’t even know what she was doing?
As for Mingke, why did she roll her eyes? In fact, it was not her fault. This man had hands and feet. Couldn’t he pick up food? Why did she have to pick it up for him? He was not one of the royal relatives in ancient times, who even had to be served when eating.
However, the president asked her to serve, so she still had to do this kind of work.
Rolling her eyes, whether she was telling the truth or not, she still picked up the food and sent it to his bowl, trying to make her voice sound softer: “Mr. Beiming, eat the food.”
Beiming Ye was surprisingly obedient. He accepted everything Mingke asked him to eat, and ate it all without leaving a single bite. He even ate two full bowls of rice. Looking at his satisfied expression when he was eating, he didn’t know how much cuter he was than his cold appearance just now.
After a meal, the people in the literature club all realized that Mr. Bei Ming seemed to like their Ming Ke very much.
Because of this, after lunch, Xu Nianhua immediately suggested: “Our club has a lounge, why don’t you go to the club to rest for a while.”
Seeing that he was unmoved, he immediately added: “Let Ke Ke introduce the content of the script to you.”
He flipped through the script so quickly just now, and he had read the entire script in just half an hour. In fact, no one believed that he read it seriously. He probably just flipped through it casually. After all, it takes at least several hours to finish reading a script.
Sure enough, after hearing him say that he would let Ming Ke introduce it to him, Bei Ming Ye finally had a trace of expression on his face. Although it was still very faint, so faint that it was almost invisible, at least there was a reaction.
He agreed.
