It seemed that no one had ever expressed concern about her catching a cold or even cared for her a bit.

However, in front of Shen Bei, she remained calm and composed.

Huo Man took the blanket from Shen Bei’s hand and gently covered her body. She did not forget to thank him.

The corners of Shen Bei’s lips curved slightly, and his eyes filled with gentle warmth as he gazed at her.

He couldn’t tear his eyes away from her. Sometimes, when the light shone in, he could even see the little hair on her white face.

Shen Bei unconsciously reached out his hand and his fingers gently stroked Huo Man’s soft cheeks.

The moment Shen Bei approached Huo Man, she woke up from her half-asleep state.

She did not expect Shen bei to touch her face while she was asleep. She did not understand Shen Bei’s intentions. Did he treat her as prey, or did he actually have feelings for her?

Huo Man didn’t want to guess, nor did she know how to.

Shen Bei always had a profound look on his face that no one could see through.

All of this fell into the eyes of Xu Feng in the driver’s seat. He was so shocked that he almost stopped the car.

It seemed that Young Master Shen had fallen for the Young Lady of the Huo family! After so many years, the iron tree finally bloomed!

It was rush hour, and the short journey took a lot of time.

After Huo Man woke up, she figured that they were stuck on the road, and the car didn’t seem to have moved much.

“Where are we going to eat?” Only then did she remember that she hadn’t asked where they were going for dinner.

Shen Bei glanced at his watch. “A French restaurant. The environment and the food there are pretty good.”

“I don’t want to eat French food,” Huo Man said directly.

Huo Man had never liked western food. She was used to being rough and liked simple and direct food. Whenever they went to a western restaurant, she had to pretend to be a lady and eat cut beef in small bites.

She didn’t like this kind of method.

Shen Bei was inevitably a little unhappy after Huo Man’s rejection, but he still went along with her and asked, “What do you want to eat?”

“Just find a food stall and cook some side dishes. Isn’t it better than French food?” Huo Man used to like eating at food stalls with Tang Qin and occasionally drinking with him. She fondly remembered those days.

However, to Shen Bei, having food from stalls was a novel concept.

Ever since he was young, Shen Bei was used to living in luxury. He had always eaten in high-end restaurants. Even at home, the ingredients used in the kitchen were of the highest quality. To Shen Bei, roadside stalls and food stalls were like products from another world.

He scoffed at these unkempt places, so when Huo Man mentioned the food stall, Shen Bei could not help but frown.

“It seems that you don’t want to eat with me.” Huo Man’s was no less attentive than Shen Bei. She caught Shen Bei’s emotions and spoke out.

Shen Bei felt that Huo Man was testing him. Therefore, he decided to go along with it. “Okay, let’s go to the food stall then. Tell Xu Feng the address.”

“Young Master Shen, are you really going…”

“Yes.”

Xu Feng was glad that he was not facing Shen Bei. Otherwise, Shen Bei would have definitely seen his face filled with shock.

Every time Shen Bei and Huo Man were together, Xu Feng’s understanding of them would only continue to grow.

For example, a man like Shen Bei was actually going to ‘stoop down to commoners’ level’ and eat at a food stall.

Just a second ago, he was shocked when Shen Bei touched Huo Man’s face.

After all, he was Shen Bei’s subordinate. No matter how incredulous Xu Feng felt, he still had to drive Huo Man and Shen Mei to the food stall that Huo Man had mentioned.

The food stall was filled with people.

The people around were dressed casually, only Shen bei, who was in a suit and leather shoes, was out of place.

Fortunately, the people in the food stall were immersed in their own world and did not care too much about Shen Bei and Huo Man.

“Come, sit here.” Huo Man picked a corner seat and let Shen Bei sit opposite her. At the same time, she did not forget to look at the door. “Xu Feng, are you not eating?”

Seeing that Huo Man was concerned about Xu Feng, Shen Bei frowned slightly and said, “He usually doesn’t eat with me.”

Huo Man didn’t say anything and called the waiter.
