Chapter 132: Chapter 101 If Ming Yue Can't, Mom Will Do It Herself!_3
```
Perhaps it could also be an opportunity to temper her a bit.
She drove to the location on the Bund.
Here, various star-rated restaurants were densely packed, but Liu Rushuang drove into an alley.
There was a small house without even a signboard, and a lady with a good temperament stood at the door as the greeter.
"My surname is Liu, I've reserved the Flower Sea private room."
Liu Rushuang said as she spoke, and the greeter immediately nodded, "Please follow me."
Once the small door was opened, there was a very tasteful Suzhou garden design inside, which led them to a room where most of the walls were floor-to-ceiling windows.
The night view of the Bund was just opposite.
The glitzy lights reflected on the river surface, dazzling like a sea of flowers.
In her past life, Liu Rushuang also liked to take them out for meals.
A private room like this one would cost several thousand at the minimum.
There's also a fifteen percent service charge, which is basically for watching the waiter open a bottle of wine and recite some spiel about the so-called effects and background of the dishes.
Xu Musen would rather give the guys in the dorm three-yuan roujiamo sandwiches, and they'd be so moved they'd yell out "foster father."
This is the life of the rich.

Liu Rushuang did not like having people around when eating, so she let the waiter leave after setting down the dishes.
"Let's all have some red wine today, it's good to relieve fatigue."
Liu Rushuang said, picking up the red wine that had been aerated in advance and pouring for everyone.
"Nuannuan doesn't need any, right?"
Xu Musen looked at An Nuannuan, this little girl probably didn't drink alcohol.
"Yeah, little kids really shouldn't drink, milk tea is pretty good."
Yao Mingyue elegantly swirled her wine glass; she was dressed maturely today, in stark contrast to An Nuannuan's cute long dress.
Meanwhile, An Nuannuan placed her milk tea against her chest as if she couldn't hear the implied meaning in those words.
"I can also drink a little. The doctor said that moderate red wine can stimulate recovery, thank you, kind big sister, for caring."
An Nuannuan thanked Yao Mingyue with a nod, her milk tea slightly shaking with the movement of her head.
But it remained securely in place.
Yao Mingyue clenched her teeth, her rosy lips pursed slightly: "You're welcome…"
Liu Rushuang, watching this scene, roughly understood what kind of subtle dynamic was at play here.
"Little friend An Nuannuan, I hear you also attend Zheng City No. 4 Middle School?"
Liu Rushuang took the initiative to speak.
"Yes, yes, Yao Mingyue, Xu Musen and I are all classmates,"
"Is that so, what a coincidence."
Liu Rushuang chuckled lightly, but her eyes shifted to Xu Musen and her daughter: "Speaking of which, Mingyue and Xiaosen have been together since kindergarten, through primary school, middle school, high school, and now college."
Actually, this statement was a clear message to her: you're just high school classmates, that's all.
My precious daughter, she's his childhood sweetheart, they grew up together, naked bottoms and all!
This near-twenty-year bond, what do you have to compare with that?
At this moment, cocoa blush tinged Yao Mingyue's stunning cheeks, mirroring the red wine in her hand.
Her phoenix eyes were dark and deep as they gazed at An Nuannuan—as if to say this was her natural advantage.
Twenty years of companionship, something no one could just toss away; in the end, he's still hers.
And you?
You're just a passer-by.
Xu Musen felt uneasy inside; though there was no open hostility at the table, the undertone in their words was slightly off.
If An Nuannuan took it the wrong way, it wouldn't be good.
However, An Nuannuan was marveling in astonishment, earnestly nodding: "That's amazing, so Yao Mingyue and Xu Musen must have always had a great relationship, right?"
Yao Mingyue:...
It was as if she had been struck on the forehead with Garen's great sword in a silent big "Q."
Remembering the way Xu Musen had been treating her recently, her chest felt as if it had been smashed by a heavy hammer!
Liu Rushuang was momentarily at a loss for words.
```
Ever since that incident, she was the one who had to shoulder the burden of both the family and the company, and indeed, there was less guidance regarding her daughter's personality.
Thinking of her daughter's obstinate and willful character, Xu Musen really spoiled her too much in the past.
The game started with a heavenly starting hand of two kings and two bombs, yet she was trumped by a single three played by someone else.
No, she had to continue and add some strong spice to make it work.
"Nuannuan, have something to drink."
Xu Musen did not want to make the atmosphere weird.
"Hehe, Nuannuan, you're quite amusing as a little friend. In the past, Xiaosen always had some little girls who liked to play with him, but in the end, only Ming Yue remained. I sometimes worry whether Xiaosen is unable to make friends with others."
Liu Rushuang chuckled, her words signaling a clear message.
Little girls like you, I've seen plenty, but in the end, you will ultimately be defeated by Yao Mingyue.
You are just a passer-by.
He and my precious daughter are a match made in heaven!
Liu Rushuang's words were a direct shot.
Had it been any other girl, she probably would have kept silent and soon found an excuse to leave.
Sure enough, An Nuannuan blinked and looked at Xu Musen, her peach-blossom eyes conveying emotions that seemed a little forlorn.
"Is that so, I see…"
She muttered to herself, her good-looking eyebrows furrowed together.
Yes, that's how to deal with it!
If you're sensible, just concede defeat! Kee kee kee~
Liu Rushuang was smug in her thoughts.
But Yao Mingyue had a feeling something wasn't quite right.
The next moment, An Nuannuan leaned slightly towards Xu Musen, gently tugging on his sleeve, "So you also have as few friends as me."
"Huh?" Xu Musen was dumbfounded.
Yet An Nuannuan, clever beyond her years, turned her head towards Liu Rushuang and said,
"Pretty auntie, I get it, don't worry. I won't be like those fickle, double-dealing people. I'm going to be good friends with Xu Musen for a lifetime!"
An Nuannuan was very serious as she spoke, even placing one hand on her chest.
It had the vibe of a sworn brotherhood found in gangster movies.
You could tell her determination from the strength of her shake.
It was full of sincerity.
And there seemed to be another meaning behind her words, between the lines.
Liu Rushuang: ...◑▂◑
Yao Mingyue: ...◐▂◐
Xu Musen: ●v●
What I meant was for you to take the hint and leave!
How did you hear it as encouraging you and Xu Musen to be inseparable?!
At this moment, she felt like she was punching cotton.
Usually, when she was out socializing, everyone was shrewd, understanding the meaning behind a single sentence.
But in front of this little girl, it was as if all her schemes were futile.
Is she really naïve or just pretending to be?
Was my surreptitious hint for her to take a hint and leave transformed into a solemn oath by her?
What a fierce rival!
Liu Rushuang's competitive spirit was aroused!
If my daughter can't make it, I will take matters into my own hands!
And Yao Mingyue, observing from the side, had already anticipated that things would turn out this way.
An Nuannuan just thinks differently from everyone else.
Seeing her mother getting a bit carried away, she was inwardly exclaiming.
Mom, please rein in your powers!
