Chapter 436: Chapter 436 Are you sure you’re not showing off your love?_1

Qiao Ning felt immediately awkward. She hoped that the relationship between them wouldn’t worsen because of her.

“Xiaotang, you really didn’t need to make Mr. Dongfang leave. It doesn’t feel quite right,” Qiao Ning expressed her concern.

Hai Xiaotang casually said: “It’s alright, I just don’t want to see him right now anyway.”

“What happened between you two?” asked Qiao Ning, “Why were you arguing?”

Hai Xiaotang began to criticize Dongfang Yu.

“Because he’s spending too recklessly!”

“Recklessly?” Qiao Ning was surprised and doubted if she had heard correctly.

Dongfang Yu was famously good at making money, how could he be reckless?

Then she listened to Hai Xiaotang complaining fiercely.

“Qiao Ning, you know his company is in severe loss now, possibly on the brink of an economic crisis. But instead of tiding things over, he keeps recklessly spending money. He’s been showering me with gifts recently! Cars, houses, jewelry, all worth at least a couple hundred million. What’s more outrageous, he has saved several hundreds of millions under my name! No matter how much I scold him, he just doesn’t stop, it’s getting more and more excessive. He even mentioned gifting me a plane today, do you think he’s spending too recklessly? Isn’t he overdoing it?!”

Qiao Ning: “…”

“You two argued over this?” Qiao Ning asked incredulously.

Hai Xiaotang nodded solemnly, “Yes, don’t you think he’s being absurd too? Or are you suggesting that I’m being ungrateful?”

Qiao Ning glanced at her, hesitated, then asked, “Xiaotang, are you sure you’re not just bragging about your romance?”

Hai Xiaotang: “…”

…

After Dongfang Yu finished processing the discharge paperwork, he returned to the hospital room only to find Hai Xiaotang dressed and ready.

Qiao Ning was helping her pack up.

Seeing him enter, Qiao Ning shyly greeted, “Hello, Mr. Dongfang.”

“Hello.” Dongfang Yu nodded in acknowledgement. However, as soon as he looked at Hai Xiaotang, his eyes couldn’t help but soften, “All packed up?”

Hai Xiaotang nodded, “All packed. But Qiao Ning and I decided to go eat first. Why don’t you join us.”

Dongfang Yu frowned, “Your health hasn’t fully recovered…”

“As long as I’m careful, it should be fine. Besides, the doctor did say I’m recovering quite well,” Hai Xiaotang looked at him with anticipation, clearly eager to eat out.

After spending so much time in the hospital eating bland food, she was on the verge of going crazy.

Since Qiao Ning was also present, she wanted to get out and grab a bite.

Dongfang Yu, realizing her intent, indulged her, “Alright, if you want to go, then go. I’ll have someone accompany you.”

“You’re not coming?” Hai Xiaotang was surprised.

Dongfang Yu nodded, “Yes, I have some matters to attend to at the company.”

“Alright then.” Hai Xiaotang obediently nodded, but with an inexplicable unease deep in her heart.

Every time Dongfang Yu mentioned handling things at the company, she would instinctively worry, fearing that something would go wrong with his company.

But it’s fine, Dongfang Yu seemed relaxed and even had the leisure to buy her gifts, so the company probably wouldn’t have major issues.

However, Hai Xiaotang’s self-consolation was quickly shattered!

She and Qiao Ning went to Baiweizhai Restaurant for a meal. As it was peak hours, all the private rooms were full.

They weren’t picky and found a seat in the main dining room.

Perhaps because it was crowded and bustling, everyone spoke loudly.

Then, Hai Xiaotang suddenly heard a man’s voice from the next table over.
