Wendy had no choice but to hold the iPad. She bit her lips and said, "Remove the cilantro..."
Upon hearing this, even Charlie himself didn't notice that he raised his eyebrows.
The waiter quickly brought up the pot. It was not a traditional charcoal fire, but an electromagnetic stove inlaid on the table. There was a large clay pot on it, which was filled with fragrant chicken soup, with sliced onion and ginger floating in the soup. When the hot pot heated up and tumbled, the aroma drifted away at once.
Thinly sliced fatty beef and vegetable were dipping into the hot pot.
Because the restaurant chose a one-piece sofa, it's inevitable that they were close to each other. Every time Wendy raised her hand, she felt she could touch Charlie's.
Wendy gripped her chopsticks and couldn't help looking at Ryan sitting on the opposite. "Ryan, shall we switch seats?"
"Sure!" Ryan happily agreed.
Charlie frowned. They moved very quickly. They moved quickly and swapped positions before he could stop them.
Wendy kept eating with her head down, trying not to look at the poker face on the opposite side.
Ryan smiled as he added water to her cup and asked, "Wendy, you said on the phone that there were some changes, what changes?"
"The person I want to interview today, Director Huang, suddenly had to fly to Australia for some urgent business, and I don't know when he'll be back..."
"Then what're you gonna do?" Ryan frowned.
Wendy shook her head and said with a sigh, "I don't know. I guess I'll just have to wait..."
"It okay. Things happen!" Ryan comforted her with a smile. "I'm in no hurry to go back, so I can wait with you!"
Charlie, who had been frowning, suddenly said, "If she doesn't go back, will Mr. Ye wait too?"
"Mr. Hogg is kidding, right? How could that be!" Ryan pushed up his glasses.
"Haha." Charlie laughed ambiguously and said in a deep tone, "I just think that things happen, just as you said."
Wendy felt that the atmosphere was a little weird, so she interrupted and said, "Eat quickly, or the beef will be overcooked!"
After the hotpot, the lights were already on outside without anyone noticing.
Charlie took out a car key and glanced at Wendy. "I'll give you a ride."
"Thank you, but no need. I've just ordered a car on the app. It's becoming more and more convenient to order a car online now!" Ryan smiled as he waved his phone. He then pointed at a taxi that had stopped by the side of the road. "Seems like it's already here!"
Charlie didn't say much, and seemed to be happy to hear that.
He continued to twitch his lips. "Wendy, get in the

car.
"Uh, no need..." Wendy shook her head.
Wendy took half a step back as if she was afraid that she would be grabbed by him and shoved in the car. She ran over to Ryan then, "Ryan, I'll go with you!"
As the cab drove through the neon light, the driver in front listened to the radio with great interest.
After coming down from the overpass, Ryan suddenly said, "If I remember correctly, Mr. Hogg drove a white Land Rover, didn't he?"
"Yes..." Wendy nodded and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"It's fine." Ryan laughed as he shook his head.

Hate deception and Abby and Dylan take the cake ,ugh...
NO!!! Tina belongs with Wilson…. Let Dylan and Abby get together...
Wow, once again the villain messes up the true love, Abby needs to go back abroad. And Tina’s true identity as the daughter of Bill Ambrey needs to be exposed! Then the families can “convenience marry” !! Abby is a witch....
Too bad Wilson can’t figure out that his and Tina’s ex’s and his cousin Desmond are conniving creeps!...
Anthea is so stupid, lying and leaving the man who loves her more than life itself. 🤬...
She deserves to be unhappy, being with someone she doesn’t love because of resentment for the exact thing she is doing, hopefully she ends up with no one. Calvin is a wimp and doesn’t love her, just wants a wife to please his family....
So the same basic story as Simon and Addy but stupid Emily is going to marry him! What a hypocrite! Ugh...
Emily gets more stupid every chapter, when did she pickup Calvin as a fiancé!!?? This story line is awful….very sad to do to Simon what she “thought” he had done but didn’t. She is truly a dumb woman. Simon never loved or really even cared for Addy….what the hell is she doing with someone she doesn’t even know or like/love. Awful 😢...
Emily is a fool, don’t let go of the man who truly loves you. Let go of the past, of which he did nothing but help someone who saved his life, and be happy with him… he is your soulmate....
Nothing like cutting off your nose to spite your face Emily. Just stupid! Ugh 😩...
