Chapter 87: Restaurant Encounter
“Xiao Yu!” Miles stuck the tourniquet onto Clark’s body and immediately chased after his wife.
Tang Yu was already far away.
He ran all the way to the entrance, only to see the black car pulling away.
Li Xia did not know why her daughter was suddenly in a hurry to leave. She asked, “Tang Ye, have you completed the procedures?”
“Don’t worry about it, someone else will handle it.” She turned her head, looking out of the car window.
She could not hold back her tears. It started to gradually blur her vision.
‘Miles, you’re a liar!’
‘You were clearly with her at work! You even hid her in your room! Is this a game you like, doctor and patient?’
Tang Yu smiled bitterly in her heart.
She had had enough. Miles was a genius with high IQ and a top student at Carville University. From the moment they met, she should have known that he was a hypocrite who liked to play with people’s feelings!
Li Xia sensed that she was in a bad mood, so she changed the topic. “The restaurant you mentioned yesterday was fully booked, so I booked another one.”
“Okay.”
“It’s Mediterranean cuisine. Do you like that?”
“I like anything.”
This restaurant was a famous Mediterranean restaurant in San Francisco. There were many people every day, especially during dinner. One had to make a reservation a day in advance in order to book a seat.
The moment Tang Yu walked into the restaurant, she saw Michael and his younger siblings, Mike and Mary, sitting at the innermost corner. She immediately took a photo and sent it to Tang Ye.
She wanted to show evidence of her exposed lie.
She had not gone on vacation with Michael at all!
She had planned all of this! She had already made an appointment with her mother yesterday. After the exam, the two of them would go out for a good meal to celebrate. That was why her mother went to pick her up at the entrance of the exam venue.
Her sister had arranged the whole day’s schedule for her to spend time with her mother.
If something like this happened again in the future, she would surely not fall into Tang Ye’s trap again!
Seeing them here, Michael immediately stood up and politely invited them to sit together.
Faced with the invitation of her future son-in-law, Li Xia was naturally very happy. Mike also warmly greeted Li Xia, praising her for being young and beautiful.
Mary was not so friendly. She turned her head away angrily and said to her brother, “I don’t want to sit with them!”
Michael tugged at her sleeve. “Sit properly. You were the one who insisted that I bring you here to eat Mediterranean cuisine, and now you’re throwing a tantrum.”
“If I don’t like her, then I don’t like her!” Mary glared at Tang Yu. “Hey, did you hear that? I don’t want to sit at the same table as you!”
Tang Yu looked at her coldly. “My name isn’t ‘Hey’. Didn’t you lose a bet with me? You should call me sister-in-law.”
“I don’t remember!”
“So, Mary is someone who doesn’t keep her word.”
“You!” Mary was on the verge of crying. She hugged Michael’s arm. “Go away! You’re not allowed to be so close to my brother! You’re not allowed to snatch second brother away!”
Michael rubbed little Mary’s head and said, “No one can take me away. Do you hate her so much because you’re afraid that she’ll take me away?”
She looked at him with tearful eyes.
“Little fool, we’re just getting married. We’re still a family.”
“I know. After you get married, you’ll live outside by yourself. At that time, you won’t even think of me.” She buried her head in Michael’s arms. “My classmates all said so…”
“It won’t be like that, sister. After we get married, there will be another person who will love the both of us,” Michael said gently.
“Yes, yes!” Mike suddenly remembered something and said excitedly to Mary, “Let me tell you something. During the wedding, sister-in-law actually beat big brother to the ground!”
Mary looked at him in disbelief. “She beat up big brother?”
How was this possible? With big brother’s strength, there weren’t many people in San Francisco who could beat him up. Was Tang Ye really that powerful?
“It’s absolutely true.” Mike excitedly recounted the scene that day.
Tang Yu was puzzled. Had her sister really beat up the legendary terrifying big brother that day? She had never mentioned it to her.
Fortunately, she was fine.
She had a new understanding of her sister’s strength.
The way Mary looked at her instantly changed. Her eyes sparkled with admiration, just like Mike’s.
“Quick, call her your sister-in-law.” Mike urged her.
Mary glanced at Michael and thought that having such a powerful second sister-in-law was not bad after all. She lowered her head,calling out in embarrassment, “Second sister-in-law.”
At some point in time, a person had walked into the restaurant. He was wearing a black mask and black baseball cap. He hadn’t made a reservation, and so had been stopped at the door. However, immediately after pulling out a black card, the waiter had respectfully cleared a table for him.
He ordered a glass of red wine and glanced over to the direction of Michael’s table from the corner of his eye.
