The Scheming Ex-Husband's Courtship-Chapter 586 - 513 Wishing to be with You to the Ends of the Earth_3

Chapter 586: Chapter 513 Wishing to be with You to the Ends of the Earth_3
Luo Meijuan whispered to Mu Chenxi, "Your teacher is truly cultured; young people like him are rare nowadays."
In her heart, Mu Chenxi thought, could the man she fancied be anything less than exceptional?
When she looked up, she met Luo Shangqing’s gaze. He smiled teasingly as if he knew what she was thinking, making Mu Chenxi wish she could slip through the crack of the elevator and disappear.
Upon arriving at the pre-booked private room, two people were already seated inside, and one of them was Luo Jiaming.
Seeing him, Mu Chenxi found him familiar. It took her a moment to remember that this elder was the same man she had almost bumped into last time in Mu Kaihua’s office. His pleasant demeanor and kind face had left a strong impression on her, and now she realized that he was Professor Luo’s father, Academician Luo Jiaming.
"Mr. Luo, hello, hello," Mu Kaihua and Luo Meijuan hurriedly greeted him.
Also standing up beside Luo Jiaming was a lady who looked about Luo Meijuan’s age, with very refined looks, and there were similarities between her eyes and Luo Shangqing’s.
Just as Mu Chenxi was pondering her identity, Luo Shangqing took the initiative to introduce her: "This is my mother, Xia Yi."
"Mrs. Luo, hello."
Xia Yi seemed like an exceptionally cultured woman, treating people with the utmost propriety. After exchanging handshakes and pleasantries, Luo Meijuan pushed Mu Chenxi to the front, "This is my daughter, Mu Chenxi. You can just call her Chenxi. She’s a sophomore at the medical college."
Mu Chenxi thought she was only going to meet Mr. Luo at the meal, but Mrs. Luo was present as well, which made her sense that the true purpose of this dinner was not simple.
"Hello Academician Luo, hello Aunt Xia," Mu Chenxi greeted sweetly.
"Ah, so this is Chenxi," Xia Yi held Mu Chenxi’s hand, looking her over with a smile, "This child has inherited the best features from both of you, very likable at first glance."
Mu Chenxi was wondering how Xia Yi knew her, but Luo Shangqing had already arranged the seating for everyone.
And Mu Chenxi was placed next to him, with Luo Meijuan on the other side.
"Chenxi, which major are you in?" Xia Yi had to lean forward across the table to speak to her, as Luo Shangqing was seated between them.
"Aunt Xia, I’m majoring in nursing," Mu Chenxi replied respectfully.
"These days, girls are afraid of hardship and are unwilling to choose nursing as a major because they fear taking care of people. Chenxi, you are quite brave," said Luo Jiaming, who was sitting across from her. Although he hadn’t spoken much, he had been watching silently, "Have we met somewhere before?"
"Yes, Academician Luo, it was at my father’s office door. We’ve met once before, and I nearly bumped into you," she replied.
Luo Jiaming thought back carefully and then remembered, laughing, "I remember now, that did happen indeed."
Xia Yi chatted with Mu Chenxi for a while about family matters, what sports she likes, what books she reads, and so on. Luo Meijuan and Mu Kaihua, sitting beside them, felt something was off—it looked less like they were invited for dinner and more like it was a matchmaking event. And when they glanced at the two sitting together, there were glances full of meaning and occasional smiles exchanged. Although there wasn’t much interaction, the small gestures were incessant.
Luo Meijuan couldn’t help but exchange looks with her husband, and Mu Kaihua shrugged, indicating confusion.
"Kaihua, I hear you’re considering emigrating?" Luo Jiaming took a sip of water before asking directly.
"Yes," Mu Kaihua had submitted his resignation at work, so he didn’t intend to keep it a secret.
"The UK might be good, but after all, living abroad is living adrift. In fact, once you travel around, you’ll find there’s no place like home," Luo Jiaming said earnestly. "Actually, the reason I asked you here today is to discuss something with you."
"If there’s anything, Mr. Luo, please just say it. I’ll do whatever I can," Mu Kaihua answered.
"I have a job offer here for you, just take a look," Luo Jiaming passed over a document that had been on the table, and Mu Kaihua quickly got up to take it.
As he opened the first page, his face revealed a shocked expression.
Mu Chenxi looked at Mu Kaihua, then at Luo Shangqing, who always seemed mysterious, not revealing what he had up his sleeve.
Luo Shangqing winked at her and reached under the table to find and hold her hand.
Feeling the warmth of his palm, Mu Chenxi was filled with a sense of security; whatever he planned to do, she would support him wholeheartedly.
