My Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 217

Xiran Xiao had to agree to have dinner with Venus Mu.

They went to a Chinese restaurant with local characteristics. After sitting down, Venus’s phone rang. Venus took a look at her phone and found it’s Kerry who’s calling.

“What’s up.” Venus said.

“Where are you? I’ll pick you up” Kerry said. Kerry didn’t seem to be in the office, because there’s some noise on the phone.

“No. My friend and I are going to have dinner. After that I will ask the driver to take me back.” Venus said.

“OK.” Kerry said and hung up the phone.

Venus was somewhat surprised. She thought Kerry was coming for dinner with them, but she didn’t expect him to hang up the phone so squarely.

But she got that wrong. Ten minutes later, she saw Kerry.

“What are you doing here?” Venus asked in surprise.

Kerry smiled and said, “I happen to be around the corner.” Then he looked at Xiran and reached out his hand to her, saying, “Hello, Miss Xiao. I’m Kerry. I’ve often heard Yan Chu talk about you. Would you mind I eating with you?”

Xiran reached out to shake his hand lightly and then let it go. “I don’t mind. Please sit down.” Xiran said with an indifferent facial expression.

Kerry sat down beside Venus with his hand resting on the back of Venus’s chair, showing Venus is his. Xiran pretended not to see that and focused on eating.

“What did you buy?” Kerry asked Venus in a low voice.

Venus was unsatisfied with his arrival, but it’s not appropriate for her to vent her anger to him as Xiran’s with them. “Just two clothes.” Venus said.

Kerry had a keen sense of her mood. But as he had come on impulse, it’s impossible for him to leave. He squeezed Venus’s hand under the table as a sign of asking her not to be angry.

Venus gave him a resentful look secretly and pulled out her hand from his.

After courting a rebuff, Kerry turned to look at Xiran and asked, “Miss Xiao, are you here for travel or work?”

“Work.” Xiran said.

“Oh, if you want to stroll about, I can recommend some places for you to visit. Yan is free and she can show you around.” Kerry said.

Xiran smiled and said, “Let me see if I can spare some time from my work.”

The atmosphere cooled down again. Kerry is not a man who is good at acting according to the real situation and he just makes himself happy.

After seeing Kerry’s reserved face, Xiran couldn’t help feel sorry for Yan and angry for Tianye Mu’s sister. “Mr. Ye, when are you going to marry Yan?” Xiran asked with a smile.

Kerry and Venus were both stunned for a while. They didn’t expect Xiran to ask this question face to face.

“Did I ask the wrong question?” Xiran said. Xiran was still smiling and they couldn’t see her through.

“No.” Kerry paused for a while and said punningly, “Six months later. I’ll take care of everything.”
