Chapter 266: She had a crush first. Chapter 266: She had a crush first. During breakfast, Wen Zhi casually brought up the idea of wanting to see Meng Fan to Nian Xun.

Nian Xun ate his breakfast methodically, speaking while eating, “If you want to see him, see him.”

Meaning he wouldn’t stand in her way.

But Wen Zhi wasn’t very happy. Setting aside whether he really wouldn’t stop her, the problem was that she couldn’t contact Meng Fan on her own.

This was a big problem.

Wen Zhi lowered her head and bit her spoon, silently pondering in her heart, trying to think of a better way. She didn’t realize that her thoughts were written all over her face, and Nian Xun could see everything clearly.

He put down his utensils, “I heard you’ve known Meng Fan since childhood, so your relationship must be very close?”

Wen Zhi looked up at him, “Relationships from childhood, do I even need to say? Definitely very close.”

Nian Xun gave her a sideways glance, “Have you already remembered some of your memories with Meng Fan?”

“A little bit,” Wen Zhi didn’t hide it and admitted honestly, “But it’s quite vague. However, I believe that with more contact with her, I will quickly remember everything related to her.”

Nian Xun elegantly wiped his mouth with a napkin, “I believe you.”

Wen Zhi seized the opportunity, immediately proposing, “Then can you help me arrange a meeting with Meng Fan?”

Nian Xun, “Didn’t you throw a tantrum at me yesterday, making a fuss about leaving, and now you’re asking for my help today?”

Wen Zhi also put down her utensils, her face taut, “If you won’t help, just forget it. Why bring up that matter?”

Nian Xun, “Then I won’t help.”

Wen Zhi, “…”!

She stood up to leave the dining table, and Nian Xun didn’t even bat an eyelid. Only after she had walked some distance did he speak slowly, “This afternoon at three.”

Wen Zhi, who had reached the staircase, suddenly stopped.

Nian Xun, “I’ve arranged for you to meet her this afternoon at three.”

The next second, Wen Zhi returned to the dining table and asked with an uncertain tone, “Really?”

Nian Xun looked up at her, “It could be false too. It depends on my mood, and on your attitude towards me from now on.”

Wen Zhi immediately squeezed out a smile, her subservience on full display as she bent over and asked, “Mr. Nian, would you like some more porridge?”

Nian Xun suppressed a curling lip, “No more, I have a bitter taste in my mouth now, I would like to have some fruit.”

Wen Zhi turned swiftly, “I’ll get you some fruit right away, please wait a moment.”

She’s even using honorifics now.

Nian Xun couldn’t help but let out a soft chuckle.

Two minutes later—

Wen Zhi tenderly placed a plate of fruit in front of Nian Xun.

In the exquisitely gilded fruit plate, there were grapes, wax apples, and sliced starfruit. These were all common fruits that Wen Zhi also enjoyed eating.

At that moment, Nian Xun was sitting on a sofa using his computer, with the slim notebook resting on his lap, his fingertips sliding across the touchpad, the scene was very quiet and pleasing to the eye.

When he heard the noise, he looked over.

And he saw right at Wen Zhi’s sly, fox-like smile, as charming and endearing as a little fox.

He paused for a moment, then looked away, his voice cool and indifferent, “Did you do this yourself, or did Aunt Xu help?”

“Of course, I did it myself.” Wen Zhi wouldn’t allow her effort to be questioned and immediately said, “Aunt Xu insisted on helping, but I didn’t let her. If you don’t believe me, ask Aunt Xu.”

Nian Xun tugged at his lip.

Wen Zhi quickly pushed the fruit plate closer to him, “Stop smiling now, eat your fruit.”

Nian Xun’s fingers continued to slide on the touchpad, casually replying, “Suddenly, I don’t feel like eating it anymore.”

Wen Zhi clenched her back teeth, damn it.

She felt like smashing the entire plate of fruit on his face!

All she could do was think about it, her hand already offering a slice of starfruit, insistently bringing it to Nian Xun’s mouth, “Try it, it’s really sweet.”

Sour to death!

She had deliberately chosen the one that wasn’t fully ripe.

Starfruit, even when ripe, can be sour, and it’s only when thoroughly ripe that it becomes sweet. The unripe kind can make one’s soul wince with its sourness.

At that moment, Wen Zhi looked expectantly for Nian Xun to open his mouth, but Nian Xun seemed to have caught onto her little scheme and said directly, “You eat it first.”

Wen Zhi, “I handpicked and cut these for you, you eat.”

Nian Xun, “Do you still want to meet Meng Fan?”

“I’ll eat, I’ll eat.” Wen Zhi stuffed the slice of starfruit into her own mouth.

Her face expressionless, she chewed and said, “So sweet.”

Nian Xun raised his eyebrows, “Swallow it.”

Wen Zhi turned and spat it out, her face at any moment was worthy of an amusing meme.

“You’ve asked for it.” Nian Xun lightly sneered, the teasing laughter clear in his eyes.

Wen Zhi indignantly placed the fruit plate on the coffee table.

Nian Xun reminded her, “Handle things gently, anything I have spent money on in this villa is very expensive.”

Wen Zhi fell silent.

Nian Xun gave her a probing look, “Feeling emotional?”

Wen Zhi asked, “When my dad entrusted me to your care, did he pay you?”

Nian Xun didn’t answer, just looked at her with a very calm gaze.
