Mr. Bo, Madam Is Pregnant! by White Moon Lake

Chapter 227

Chapter 226: Chapter 226 Tension

When Zhao Ying arrived, Shen Xun was no longer so nervous. He wasn’t entirely at ease, but at least he didn’t feel the kind of tightness that left him unsure of what to say, like before.

He was just a bit reserved. Su Lu could sense Shen Xun’s good intentions because they were excessively kind.

To be honest, Su Lu felt that the only thing he hadn’t done was feed her.

She had genuinely saved Su Zhe’s life, and Su Zhe had been very good to her, but even he wasn’t as over-the-top as Shen Xun.

So perhaps... guilt was indeed a heavier emotion than gratitude.

Su Zhe was grateful to her, so he treated her very well. Shen Xun must have been carrying a constant sense of guilt towards her, which made his kindness towards her more than just good—it was almost excessively cautious.

This made Su Lu feel a little uncomfortable. She was always worried that any casual remark might be overinterpreted by Shen Xun and then he would become all cautious again.

But to tell the truth, Shen Xun indeed seemed a lot less nervous.

And it appeared that nervousness had shifted over to Zhao Ying.

When Zhao Ying arrived, it was nearly dinner time. Shen Xun had booked a private room at the restaurant on the top floor of the hotel and ordered quite a few dishes.

Su Lu and Su Zhe followed him up. Su Lu had eaten at this restaurant a few times and the food was good.

The menu was filled with Su Lu’s favorite dishes; heaven knows how he knew these things...

Su Lu glanced at the menu and then couldn’t help but look towards Su Zhe.

Su Zhe simply shrugged his shoulders, looking as if he knew nothing. It wasn’t him who had let the secret out, and besides...

Actually, Su Zhe wasn’t very clear about Su Lu’s dietary preferences himself. While she was with the Su family, she always kept a very low profile, let alone ordering dishes with the housekeepers or nannies. She would eat whatever was available without being picky.

Heaven knows how Shen Xun found out.
