Chapter 190

This was the fourth time he had seen her.

The first time was on a noisy street. She had mocked him and he had turned around to look at her, but he did not have a special impression of her.

The second time he saw her, she was divining words for someone. Her confident manner had attracted his attention. He found that her face was very normal and her skin was yellow. Only that pair of limpid eyes were deeply imprinted in his mind.

The third time he saved her from the back of the horse, her face full of red spots gave him a fright. Fortunately, he had excellent control, so he didn't reveal anything strange.

But the person in front of him was like a completely different person.

He almost did not recognize her.

Her face was clean without a single trace of makeup on it, but it was like a warm spring breeze blowing into the room.

That soft skin was as clear as jade and there were still droplets of water on her face. Her eyebrows were like crescent moons and her eyes were like paint. There was a faint blush on her cheeks that was as delicate as a hibiscus that had just come out of the water. The petals still had drops of dew on them.

This made his eyes, who had seen a lot of makeup and women, light up. He never thought that there would be this kind of natural beauty in this world.

"Young master, if you keep staring at me like this, I'm afraid my face will be melted by the young master."

Chen Ning saw him staring at her and revealed a faint smile. Then she used the words he had just said to tease her.

"Ke, ke, ke ….." The black clothed man had a sip of tea in his mouth and when he heard this, he choked on it and couldn't help coughing.

He lowered his head and felt his face heat up. He never thought that there would be a day when he would be teased by someone.

This girl really was bold.

But he could not be angry.

His slender fingers gently stroked the smooth teacup as he pondered how to tell her the reason for his visit without being rejected by her.

Chen Ning was also curiously looking at him.

She found that his eyebrows were very thick and his eyelashes were very long. When he looked down and no longer looked at her with an aggressive gaze, the pressure on her instantly decreased by quite a bit.

She noticed that his fingers were touching the teacup. The cup was already empty, but he did not notice it.

This meant that he was thinking about a problem and this problem had to be related to her.

He did not look up at her, meaning that he had not thought of how to ask her.

Chen Ning revealed a faint smile. She knew that her judgement was not wrong.

She leaned back in her chair and poured herself a cup of tea. Her expression was relaxed as she quietly waited for him to speak.

"Two esteemed guests, the dishes are here!"

Before the man in black could say anything, the waiter opened the door and served the dishes they had ordered.

When the first dish was brought over, it immediately attracted the black clothed man's attention.

Before the dishes even entered the door, a special aroma wafted into his nostrils.

The snow-white porcelain plate was covered with emerald green branches that overlapped and formed what looked like a bird's nest.

A young pigeon that was roasted to a brilliant golden yellow lay cross-legged in its nest with its neck stretched towards the sky. Its appearance was unique, and at first glance, it really did look like a phoenix.

The man in black laughed involuntarily, "Is this the Phoenix's Return to the Nest?"

The waiter smiled as he nodded. His face was filled with pride.

As long as this dish was placed in front of the guests, there was no one who wouldn't praise it. In this period of time, the praises he had heard almost filled his ears.
