Second pregnancy, sixth child: The beloved mom's disguise has been exposed again.

Chapter 223 The Focus of Attention, Showing Warmth and Concern

Lunchtime.

Miao Yuliu did not accept Ning Yao's terms of negotiation, so she naturally had no money to buy food. She squeezed onto a small table with her girlfriends and ate free white bread.

The two girls, nicknamed "Dog Legs 123," all had serious expressions on their faces. In the huge ship's dining room, they were actually eating white bread in a corner.

They harbored resentment, but dared not voice it openly in front of Miao Yuliu, since they hadn't paid for the boat tickets themselves.

Many people had already given them strange looks as they passed by, and the group of girls wished they could bury their heads in the table.

Unfortunately, this white bread can only be eaten in the restaurant and cannot be taken out; otherwise, they wouldn't be making a fool of themselves here.

They glared resentfully at a large table of people by the sea view window on the other side, where Ning Yao was sitting, laughing and eating happily.

Ning Moran and Ning Chen wished they could bring all the delicious food in the restaurant to the table for Ning Yao to try.

A large table of dishes, including all kinds of delicacies from land and sea, with the two most eye-catching items being two enormous king crabs.

Ning Yao swallowed hard. She was still thinking about controlling her weight. If she wanted to pursue a career in the entertainment industry, she had to pay attention to her figure.

However, with so much delicious food in front of her, Ning Yao couldn't resist and started eating heartily.

Ning Yao picked up a crab leg that Ning Moran had prepared for her and drizzled with sauce. Just as she was about to eat it, she remembered Wen Tingye in the room.

What did he eat for lunch?

He didn't come down to the restaurant. Did he order the food to be eaten in his room?

While they were eating, Cui Mengmeng, who was next to Ning Yao, suddenly covered her mouth and screamed, staring in shock at the restaurant entrance not far away.

"Cough cough..."

Ning Yao was startled by Cui Mengmeng's sudden situation. The crab meat dipped in wasabi got stuck in her throat, making her choke and almost bringing tears to her eyes.

Sitting next to Ning Yao, Ning Chen glanced at her with concern, reached out and handed her a tissue, then placed his hand on her back to pat her and help her catch her breath.

Ning Chen raised his hand halfway into the air but was stared at by a cold and piercing gaze. He turned his head in surprise and met Wen Tingye's eyes.

No one could withstand such immense pressure and still put their hand on it, but Ning Chen did.

He nodded to Wen Tingye, then quickly turned his gaze back to Ning Yao with concern, patting her back.

This kid is pretty arrogant. He dares to be so unrestrained in front of him?

Wen Tingye's thin lips twitched slightly, but he didn't show it too obviously. He pulled up a chair and sat down next to Ning Yao, intentionally blocking the way between Ning Chen and Ning Yao, and cutting in.

Ning Chen wasn't unhappy at all. On the contrary, she cooperated with Wen Tingye's actions and moved to the side, making room for him.

Wen Tingye raised one eyebrow, clearly puzzled by Ning Chen's actions.

Why is this kid so arrogant one minute and cowardly the next?

What show is being performed?

Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue exchanged a glance and involuntarily straightened their backs.

Wen Tingye has an innate sense of authority that can intimidate even those who don't know his identity.

Moreover, they knew Wen Tingye's identity, which amplified their sense of awe.

It wasn't until Wen Tingye raised his hand and began to take over Ning Chen's actions to help Ning Yao, who had been choked by wasabi, catch her breath.

Xin Yujue's eyes widened as she glanced at the men sitting at their table with a rather gossipy look.

Ning Moran always appeared gentle and easy to talk to, seemingly mild-mannered, but in reality, she was cold and ruthless, and not easy to approach.

His care for Luo Xiyao was meticulous, as if he had given her all the tenderness he had in his heart.

Anyone with eyes can easily see Ning Moran's feelings for Luo Xiyao; after all, eyes don't lie.

Ning Chen, on the other hand, is much more irritable. He appears to be extremely difficult to get along with, but he is probably a gentle person inside.

His affection was subtle; he didn't easily reveal it, but that didn't mean he wouldn't. It was like when he handed Luo Xiyao a tissue and patted her back.

Undoubtedly, Ning Chen also had feelings for Luo Xiyao, and those feelings were perhaps no less than Ning Moran's.

During the meal, whenever Ning Moran did something to Luo Xiyao, Ning Chen would try to make up for it in another way.

This behavior looks exactly like jealousy, as if Ning Moran is trying to win Luo Xiyao's favor.

As for Premier Wen, Xin Yujue didn't quite understand it.

He was always enigmatic, yet he was kind to Luo Xiyao.

But whether this "goodness" is based on the kind of nurturing game the sugar daddy plays on the canary, or whether it's genuinely good, she really can't figure it out.

There was no doubt that all the men at the table had feelings for Luo Xiyao. Xin Yujue glanced at Luo Xiyao thoughtfully.

Her roommate is really lucky.

Even someone as oblivious as Cui Mengmeng could see that the men at the table harbored ill intentions towards Luo Xiyao.

In her eyes, all the men at this table were Luo Xiyao's harem, and President Wen was naturally the rightful empress!

When Miao Yuliu saw Wen Tingye appear not far away, she subconsciously shrank her neck.

It seems Ning Yao's threats weren't empty words; Wen Tingye really is on the ship...

Just as I was thinking this, my few sycophantic girlfriends started gossiping about me.

"Isn't that President Wen? I've seen him on financial news. He's much more handsome in person than on TV!"

"He was actually on the ship too, and sitting next to Luo Xiyao. It seems that the rumor that President Wen flew his lover to school isn't just a rumor, it's true! Holy crap, what good deeds did Luo Xiyao do in her past life to deserve this blessing?"

"I originally thought those two boys were already quite good-looking, but without comparison there is no harm. Boys are just boys, they don't have the charm of mature men. Look, when President Wen sits down, the boys' aura diminishes."

"No, I still think Ning Chen is great. He didn't seem scared at all; on the contrary, he was quite calm and composed."

"Ning Moran is no less impressive. He wasn't timid at all, openly competing with President Wen for a woman. How cool is that?"

All the outstanding and eye-catching men on the ship sat at Ning Yao's table. Not only was Miao Yuliu envious and jealous, but the socialites and ladies on the other ships also showed envious eyes.

Which woman wouldn't want to have lunch with three handsome men of different styles?

Ning Yao noticed that everyone around her was looking at her, and she coughed uncomfortably.

Her cough immediately drew the attention of the three men at the table, who looked at her with concern.

People handed her tissues, juice, and one even called over her private doctor, instructing him to examine Ning Yao's throat and soothe her choking.

She was just choked by wasabi, that's making a mountain out of a molehill. She's not made of paper!

Ning Yao was so embarrassed by the hushed whispers around her that she almost had a stroke, but she was too embarrassed to say no.

After all, it was a token of affection from several men, especially since one of them was her most beloved son.

The doctor examined Ning Yao's throat and took out a vial of medicine to spray on her, but Ning Moran stopped him.

“Use this bottle; there are no side effects.” Ning Moran handed the doctor a vial the size of a palm. It had no brand logo, only a black barcode for anti-counterfeiting.

The private doctor was stunned when he received the medicine. He examined the medication carefully, and his eyes widened in shock.

"Are you Dr. Ning Moran, a genius in biopharmaceutical science?"

I thought it was just a resemblance, but I never expected that the person sitting at the table was actually Dr. Ning himself!

He was so honored!
