Sir, How About A Marriage novel Chapter 57

Why was the world so small? The world was so small that one would always end up meeting the person one did not want to meet.

Although it was for different reasons, this was something that troubled both Ye Xin and Song Ning.

At this moment, a middle-aged man dressed in an exquisite suit with his hair meticulously styled stood in front of Song Ning. From his appearance to his expression and the air of elegance around him, they all hinted that he was from a distinguished family. The man was clearly surprised to see Ning Xia. "Ning Xia, why are you here?"

Song Ning replied calmly, "I'm here to meet a friend."

The man looked around the restaurant that was owned by the Mu Group.

The restaurant was the most luxurious restaurant in M City, and its patrons were, naturally, the wealthy and the influential. The upper floors of the restaurant were part of the office in the Mu Group's headquarters.

The man asked skeptically, "You're meeting your friend... here?"

Song Ning only smiled faintly as she replied, "Are you implying that I don't have friends who are qualified to dine here?"

When the man realized he had made a gaffe, he said, "I'm sorry, Ning Xia. That's not what I mean. Why don't you call your friend over, and we can have a meal together. We haven't eaten together in years."

Song Ning's smile froze immediately. "No, I don't have the appetite to eat with you."

The man's expression darkened immediately. "Ning Xia, how dare you speak to me like this? Mind your manners. It's clear you've been negatively influenced over the years."

Song Ning's eyes reddened slightly as she looked at the man in front of her. "Manners? After my mother passed away, no one taught me anything about manners. No one influenced me; I'm just naturally rude. Don't you know that?"

The man loosened his tie slightly as he softened his voice and said, "Ning Xia, the door of our house is always open to you. You can come back anytime you want. It was never my intention to abandon you; it was your mother who insisted on taking you away."

"Don't mention my mother!" Song Ning's voice rose, attracting the attention of the people in the surroundings.

Feeling embarrassed, the man lowered his voice. "Do you really have to throw a tantrum on such an occasion? Didn't you learn to behave after so many years of suffering? You gave up on the chance to have a nice and easy life back at home. Look at what you've become!"

Song Ning's breathing grew heavy. She dug her nails into her palms when she clenched her hands. She said, "I don't want a nice and easy life. I'm not Ning Xia; my name is Song Ning! Song Ning! If you see me in the future, please pretend that you don't know me! I'm not worthy enough to know someone like you anyway!"
