My Waste Husband

Chapter 16

"We met at Master Ferger's exhibition." Henry picked up a scallop and put it on the plate in front of Sylvia, and continued, "At that time, Master Ferger had an exhibition in Chang'an. Both me and Sylvia were attracted by Master Ferger's painting called Early Breakfast, but we offered different opinions. I still remembered that Sylvia said that she was yearning for the quiet feeling in the painting. The soft lines would calm her down, and I admired the love expressed between the man and woman in the painting. Of course, the green scenery was very good."

Milan felt a bit strange but she said, "I see. I wanted to go there also, but I didn't have a chance. After hearing what you said, I'm pretty jealous."

Henry smiled gently and said, "Three months later, Master Ferger will hold an exhibition. If there is a chance, we can go together."

"Okay." Milan also smiled and nodded. "Ah! My food is ready!"

Then she ran to the kitchen in a panic.

"How do you know?" Sylvia asked with a soft voice full of doubts.

"What?" Henry took one scallop for himself.

"How do you know about Master Ferger's exhibition? How do you know about the Early Breakfast?" Sylvia was puzzled. The reason why she told Milan that she met Henry at the exhibition was that she also liked painting. However, she didn't make it to this particular exhibition.

Hearing Sylvia's question, Henry pointed to his mobile phone in his pocket and said, "I just checked it. I'm trying not to get exposed!"

"Well done!" Sylvia gave him a thumbs-up.

"Hey hey, thank you for your praise, President Lin."

In the kitchen, Milan glanced at the dining room secretly. After confirming that Sylvia and Henry were sitting at the dining table, she took out her mobile phone and dialed the number. Soon, somebody picked up.

Holding the phone in one hand and covering her mouth with the other, Milan whispered, "Nico, do you remember the wanted photo we saw on the street in France three years ago?"

"I remember." A crisp female voice came from the other end of the phone, accompanied by the sound of a spatula colliding with a fried pot. At this time, it was lunchtime in France. "Why, why do you suddenly ask this?"

"I saw him! I don't know what happened. He has returned to China and married my best friend as an artist!" Milan looked anxious.

"Oh my God!" A burst of exclamation came from the other side of the phone. "You actually met him! Has he not been arrested by the French royal family? You know, he even dared to deceive the princess of the royal family at that time! Why didn't you call the police to arrest him and expose his identity in front of your best friend?"

"I don't know how he came back, and I don't know why he wasn't arrested. I can't call the police, I don't have any evidence, and I can't directly expose him. Now my silly best friend has been completely cheated by him. Once I directly say he is a French wanted criminal, not only will my best friend not believe it, but also will warn this guy. At that time, there will be no way to reveal his true colors!" Milan's tone was full of anger and anxiety. At this point, she even sneaked a glance at the restaurant.

Sylvia also noticed that there was a happy expression on her beautiful face when she looked at him. She tore off a piece of duck meat and handed it to Henry.

Seeing this scene, Milan trembled with anger. She made up her mind and said on the phone, "This is a love liar. I have to find a way to reveal his true identity! Please ask the teacher for a leave and tell him that I won't go back these days."

"You won't come back? Oh my God, Milan, do you know what you're talking about? Our teacher told me last night that he passed the test. If there is a chance, he can take us to meet that master. If we can learn a little from that man, we can inherit his position and become the chef of the French royal family!" The woman's voice on the phone was full of disbelief.

"Let's talk later about the chef. I can't let my best friend be cheated like this. Okay, I'll hang up first!" Milan hung up the phone, picked up the food that had just been prepared, and walked toward the dining room. At the same time, her face was full of smiles. "Mr. Zhang, try the snails. You will definitely like it."

Sylvia enjoyed the food made by Milan very much, but she was more afraid that Milan would ask any tricky questions, so she quickly ate the food on the table instead of enjoying it slowly as usual.

"Sylvia, do you have anything to do tonight?" Milan asked curiously. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"No." Sylvia shook her head. "I'm just worried about you. You came back from France and haven't returned home yet. There is only one flight to Hangzhou tonight."

Holding a snail shell in her hand, Milan stared at Sylvia and said, "Sylvia, I'm not leaving. I want to stay here for two more days."

"Ah? Two more days?" Sylvia lost her composure because of the unexpected news and opened her mouth wide.

"Yes." Milan nodded and said, "So, am I welcomed or not?"

After two seconds, Sylvia came to her senses and said, "Welcome...Welcome."

"Haha, I knew you couldn't bear to leave me. Let me think about which room I should live in." Raising up her head, Milan glanced at the second floor.

Sylvia smiled bitterly and looked at Henry.

Henry winked at Sylvia, made an OK gesture, and made a mouth gesture.

Looking at Henry's appearance, Sylvia felt helpless. "Relax? How can I relax? Sooner or later, I will be exposed! If that is the case, it will be too shameful!"

After dinner, Henry washed dishes in the kitchen as usual. After giving a thumbs-up sign of "good man", Milan began to unpack.

Sylvia sat on the sofa and looked at Henry in the kitchen. Then, she looked at her best friend who was running around the room. She reached out and covered her forehead, sighing helplessly.

After washing the dishes, Henry saw Sylvia sitting on the sofa, drinking tea while watching the city's financial news today. Sylvia would watch it every day.

"Add a little hot water." Henry came over with a kettle and added water to Sylvia's teacup. He glanced at the TV and found that there was news about Jenny Qin on the television. On the news, there was also the news that Jenny's Hengyuan Trade Company had been approved to blow up the mountain. In the news, the authorities said that they would fully support her and would make Hengyuan Trade Company the benchmark company for one year in Yinzhou City.
