Chapter 193 Misunderstanding Emily nodded and smiled at Lucas. “Now that you mention it, I’m not that nervous anymore.”
Lucas looked at the bright smile on her face and became absent-minded for a moment. Something
flashed in his black eyes.
Unfortunately, Emily did not notice it. Because her attention was attracted by what Lucas said next.
Logically speaking, Emily had no relationship with the Meng family, so why would Mr. Hawking invite
her to the birthday banquet? Lucas, who could not understand, could not help but ask. “Speaking of
which, since you don’t know Old Meng, why would Mr. Hawking invite you to his birthday banquet?” “It’s
a long story. Do you remember the last time we ate at that medicinal cuisine restaurant?”
Emily looked over with a smile.
Lucas nodded, indicating that he remembered. He asked doubtfully, “Yes?” “Last time, Mr. Hawking
asked me to improve the medicinal formula of the medicinal cuisine. Later, I heard from Mr. Hawking
that the improved medicinal cuisine benefited Mr. Hawking greatly. That’s why I am invited this time.”
Emily roughly explained the matter of changing the formula. After Lucas understood, he couldn’t help
but smile, “In that case, I think he will probably like you very much.” “Why?”
Emily looked over in confusion. Was it because she knew medicine or had improved the medicine list?

understanding. Emily was very speechless, but she did not continue this topic. Instead, she looked at
the things she needed to pay attention to at Lucas’ banquet. While they were talking, the car arrived at
the Meng family manor. There were many guests gathered at the scene. There were countless luxury
cars parked on both sides of the street. Looking at the bustling situation, Emily was already a little
scared when she followed Lucas out of the car.
Of course, her slight expression did not hide from Lucas.
Lucas looked amused. He rolled up his arms and suggested, “How about you hold my arm. With
someone accompanying you, you won’t feel lonely.” Hearing this, Emily looked at Lucas and then
looked at the strong arm. She did not refuse.
Because she felt that Lucas was right. With someone accompanying her, she was indeed not so
nervous. She would feel much safer this way. “Then thank you, Mr. Greens.” After thanking him, Emily
held Lucas’s arm and entered the door. As soon as they entered, because of Lucas’s special identity,
the two of them immediately became the center of attention.
Emily felt the probing eyes around her, and she was very unaccustomed to it. Her whole body was
tense.
Lucas was calm though. He glanced around and saw Old Master Meng in the crowd. At the same time,
he also saw his parents and Mr. Hawking standing beside him. It was unknown what they were talking
about, but there was a faint smile on their faces.
“I’ve found Old Master Meng. Mr. Hawking is also over there. Please come with me
and say hello.” Lucas lowered his head and spoke to Emily who was beside him. Emily naturally had no
objections. The two walked over just like that. At this time, the few people who were originally talking
saw Lucas and Emily walking towards them. Among them, Peiying and Zhenting were the first to be
stunned. Especially Peiying, when she saw Emily holding her son’s arm, she frowned tightly. What was
going on with the Meng Family? Why did they invite the doctor here? On the other hand, when Mr.
Hawking saw the two people leisurely walking over, his eyes flashed with a crafty light. The two of them
were just as he had expected. They stood together and were extremely compatible. It was not in vain
that he had specially arranged this.
At the same time, Emily also saw Peiying and Zhenting. She was a little stunned. She had not
expected to see Lucas’ parents here.
Especially when she met Mrs. Greens cold gaze, she felt a little guilty and wanted to pull her hand back
from Lucas’ arm, Unfortunately, before she could do anything, she had already followed Lucas to the

In the end, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue to hold onto Lucas, greeting him
politely. “Mr. Greens, Mrs. Greens, we meet again.” “Doctor Armstrong.” Although Zhenting was
dissatisfied, he still nodded in agreement.
Peiying, on the other hand, only nodded slightly and no longer paid any attention to her.
She looked at her son and pretended to be slightly annoyed as she reprimanded, “You child, why did
you drag Doctor Armstrong over here? Could it be that you want her to be your shield? Hearing this,
Lucas frowned. But before he could say anything, his mother turned to Emily and said earnestly.
“Doctor Armstrong, although you are treating him, you don’t have to listen to him.” These words
sounded very kind, but in fact, there was something hidden in their words.
Obviously, Peiying was very dissatisfied with her son bringing Emily to such an occasion.
However, due to her identity, she could not say anything, so she used such tactful words to express her
meaning.
Emily also vaguely heard a trace of hostility in her words. But before she could take a closer look, Mr.
Hawking’s displeased voice sounded in her ears.
“Did Mrs. Greens misunderstand something? I am the one who invited Ms. Armstrong here!”
