“Eleven p.m. You’ve been asleep for almost seven hours since I picked you up.” Arthur picked up his glass of red wine and took a sip.

Picked me up? Shi Qian chuckled.

He had even used an anesthetic needle. Was this considered picking up her?

Arthur put down his glass. “Hungry, aren’t you? I’ve prepared a dinner party. We’ll have dinner when you wake up.”

“Arthur, you didn’t go to all this trouble to kidnap me here just to have dinner with me, did you?”

Arthur couldn’t help but laugh, as if Shi Qian’s words were so ridiculous.

Shi Qian just wanted to test him. Arthur’s smile made her nervous involuntarily.

“Let’s have dinner first. I’m a little hungry after waiting for so long.” Arthur stood up and walked out.

Shi Qian followed Arthur with a belly full of questions.

This villa was so big that Shi Qian looked out of the window. Be it the style of the building or the plants planted outside, they were still in the style of Country F. She immediately felt a little more at ease.

What she was afraid of was that Arthur had already taken her out of Country F.

Fu Sinian must be thinking of all ways to save her.

Arthur went to the cafeteria first and gentlemanly pulled out a chair. “Miss Shi Qian, please sit.”

Shi Qian looked at the sumptuous dinner on the table and felt a little hungry. She walked over and sat on a chair.

Arthur turned around and walked to the opposite seat.

“Would you like some wine?”

“I’m sorry, I can’t really drink,” Shi Qian rejected softly.

“Then I won’t force Miss Shi Qian.” Arthur poured himself a glass.

Shi Qian picked up her knife and fork and started eating.

Seeing her eating so happily, Arthur stared at her with interest.

Shi Qian took a few bites and looked up at Arthur. “Mr. Arthur, didn’t you just say that you were hungry too? Why aren’t you eating?”

“Because you’re already a feast for the eyes.”

“Thank you for the compliment.” Shi Qian picked up the glass of water beside her and took a sip before continuing to eat.

“You don’t seem nervous at all. Aren’t you afraid that I’ll plot against you?”

“Yes, but what’s the use of being afraid?” With that, Shi Qian continued eating.

Arthur could not help but laugh.

“Do you still remember the first time we met? I was the one who let you in so that you could stab Su Ruoqing.”

“Yes, I still owe you one. Thank you.”

Arthur smiled again. “You’re really funny.”

Shi Qian did not answer and continued eating.

She was just pretending to be calm, but she was actually very flustered. She could not guess why Arthur had kidnapped her.

She couldn’t even guess what would happen after this meal.

Arthur stopped talking and picked up his cutlery to eat.

Ever since he was young, very few people had eaten with him. Shi Qian was the first woman who could eat with him. It did not affect his appetite as he had imagined. On the contrary, his appetite had increased during this dinner.

After Shi Qian finished eating, she secretly hid a table knife in her sleeve.

Arthur had also finished eating and asked the servant to come and clean up the cutlery.

Shi Qian’s emotions tensed visibly as she stared intently at Arthur. She didn’t miss any of his expressions.

As soon as Arthur stood up, she immediately stood up as well.

“Does Miss Shi Qian know how to play Go?” Arthur suddenly asked.

“I know a little,” Shi Qian replied softly.

“That’s good. I know a little too. You’ve been asleep for so long, so you shouldn’t be sleepy. Why don’t we play a game of chess?”

Play chess? Shi Qian was really confused by Arthur’s actions.

The more Arthur acted like this, the more nervous she became..
