There was no point in thinking about the woman who approached them earlier. Although Lu Mengjie would be lying to herself if she said that she wasn\'t bothered by that woman.

"Have you chosen yet?" Han Yizhou\'s voice brought her back from her thoughts.

She has been staring at the menu list she was holding for a moment. She couldn\'t decide on what to eat since her mind was wandering somewhere else.

They were currently at a restaurant located inside the mall. After shopping for their baby, Han Yizhou ordered one of his men to bring all the paper bags back to their car.

He was never alone while he was following Lu Mengjie around the place. He has already assigned some of his men to keep an eye on them, especially towards the pregnant woman. Her safety was their priority

"Are you still thinking of that woman?"

She sighed in defeat as she confessed, "how can I not be?"

"Whoever she is, we\'ll find out." He reached out and held her hand, rubbing her knuckles with his thumb.

"Mm…"

"So have you decided on what to eat?"

"I\'ll have the same as yours." She lowered the menu list with her free hand. 

"Alright then."

Han Yizhou called for the waiter and ordered food for them and waited. When the order arrived, the plates of steaks were placed in front of them.

Upon having the first sight, the man couldn\'t help but sigh in disappointment.

"What\'s wrong?" Lu Mengjie asked upon noticing it. 

"This aged steak is overrated."

"Overrated? Why so?"

"It\'s not that good." Despite saying that, he didn\'t have a choice but to eat the food he had already ordered.

She chuckled lightly and retorted, "is it really? I\'m sure when you age, you\'re quite delicious."

"..." Han Yizhou was caught off-guard by what she said. For a moment there, he almost released the fork he was holding and dropped it. Good thing he was able to regain his composure all at once and refuted by saying, "I prefer it young. The meat is tender and juicier."

A small blush was seen on her cheeks. "Guess we prefer different types."

"My only type is you though." It was another sneaky remark which darkened the blush on her face.

This guy… 

She cleared her throat then said, "what I mean is food."

"I know and my answer will still be the same." He snickered at her. "I would love to have a daily taste of my favorite food."

"..." It was pointless. Lu Mengjie has been fully defeated by him. She could feel her face heat up and heart race like crazy. She was not used to someone being this affectionate to her so she couldn\'t help but feel flustered with how he was showering her with his attention.

"Just eat your food already." She sighed.

A chuckle came from him. "Do you want me to?"

She flushed. Knowing exactly what he was trying to deliver. "I mean LITERAL food, mister. That one right in front of you."

"Ah… how disappointing." He only gave the steak a quick glance before he returned them to her. "I think I should just change my course of meal instead. I\'m already looking at more delicious food."

She grabbed her fork and was so tempted to stab him with it. The more she was receiving his intense affectionate gaze, the more she wanted to hide. It was so unfair. How could he bring this much effect on her?

In the end, she was forced to keep her mouth shut. That was the only solution or else, he would have continued, using all her words to attack her back.

She puffed out her blushing cheeks as she pretended to ignore him this time.

The smile continued to stretch out from his lips as he quietly watched her consume her food. He had never teased someone like this so it was obvious in his eyes on how he enjoyed teasing her so much.

…

After their dinner, the couple went back to the mansion where they were staying.

The first person to greet them was a fuming steward Fang. "It\'s late, madam. Where have you been?"

"Are you my father?" Lu Mengjie raised a brow at him, obviously not liking how he was acting towards her. He was finally showing his true colors.

Steward Fang ended up stretching his lips into a thin line. It was hard to refute her.

"You are not my father, neither do I have a curfew. If I remembered correctly, Jingye has given me his permission and that is all I need." She could see that he wanted to argue back but couldn\'t since she was slapping him with facts.

"What is happening here?" Xu Chen approached them. "Mengxi, are you making a problem for steward Fang?"

The audacity of this woman to quickly blame her!

"Madam, you don\'t have to trouble yourself in this matter," said Steward Fang, suddenly acting like a victim. "I was just telling miss Bai that she shouldn\'t come home late."

Lu Mengjie scoffed, "Right. I would love to not come home at all then."

"Is that how you talk to your elders?" The other woman scolded, glaring at her.

Han Yizhou wanted to jump in between and help her but when he saw the calm look on Lu Mengjie\'s eyes, he stayed still. She didn\'t need his help. She could handle a matter like this on her own.

"Oh, I\'m sorry. Was I being rude? Steward Fang and mother looked so young."

"..."

"..."

The two people in front became speechless. 

"I know what I\'m doing, I am not a child so I will very much appreciate it if you can just mind your own business." She walked past them. "Let\'s go, Mr. Han, you still have to help me unpack the things we bought."

"You ungrateful bitch!" Xu Chen finally erupted. She was about to grab on Lu Mengjie\'s hair from behind but was suddenly stopped when someone firmly grabbed her wrist. It was Han Yizhou.

His eyes darkened and he coldly said, "you have no right to touch her."
