Translator: 549690339

Tong Tiehu heard this and glanced at Tong Sanlang, his eyes that usually sparkled with vitality were somewhat cloudy.

Carrying out his father’s wish to rebel had left him empty for a lifetime, so how could he disregard Tong Sanlang’s actions.

With a private sigh, he said, “Let’s go, to the shop.”

Tong Sanlang raised his whip, driving the ox cart towards his store.

Qiao Xiaomai entered the Zuixian Building, greeted the shopkeeper Zhou who was crying internally, and then left with Qiao Changshun and Qiao Dami.

Originally, she had planned to dine at Zuixian Building. However, after the recent commotion, and the earlier incident, Qiao Xiaomai felt both physically and mentally exhausted.

The melancholy feeling she had when she first arrived was returning.

She was a rich spoilt child who had defeated her gold-digging stepmother and negligent father, planning to enjoy a pleasant life, but ended up in this lousy place after a car accident.

Enduring poverty.

Enduring some impressive people.

Enduring the aristocracy.

Enduring irregular menstrual cycles.

She was utterly worn out.

“Xiaomai, what happened just now?” Qiao Changshun asked.

He and Qiao Dami were in the backyard just now, only hearing the commotion in front but not knowing the exact circumstances.

“A crazy woman made a scene,” Qiao Xiaomai gave a perfunctory reply, then took a deep breath and said, “Let’s go to Jiwei residence.”

Eating.

As a foodie, she naturally had to feast when facing such a suffocating situation.

So, the family of three went to Jiwei residence. Qiao Xiaomai ordered a second-floor private room, ordered all the signature dishes, filling the table. The three of them feasted until they were content.

When she was almost full, Qiao Xiaomai sipped on the sweet Crabapple and Tremella soup, the gloomy mood that was holed up in her heart gradually dissipated.

She began to think about the incident just now and the cook-off in three days.

Earlier, Bai Zhi pushed her off the second floor and accused her of seducing Yang Ye, constantly calling her a rustic bumpkin.

Alright.

She would remember this.

Four dishes, one soup, one appetizer.

Jiwei residence and Zuixian Building represented the top culinary skills in this area. She had tasted the signature dishes of both places. She might lose when it came to knife skills and refinement, but when it came to freshness and taste, she was confident she would win.

With a strategy forming in her heart, she leisurely finished the sweet soup in her small bowl, called over a waiter, and had the leftover dishes packed.

This table of food cost tens of taels of silver.

But when it came time to pay, Shopkeeper He cheerfully told her that considering their previous cooperation, they could offer a fifty percent discount on the meal.

Qiao Xiaomai raised an eyebrow, recalling when Tong Sanlang had saved her earlier.

Falling from the second floor wasn’t too high, so the time was in fact very short.

In that instant, she didn’t think of anything else. She was worried that she would be crippled, she was too overwhelmed with fear to even harbor resentment.

Only fear itself.

Just as she was becoming desperate, she fell into a pair of arms.

Qiao Dami once asked her what it feels like to be embraced by Tong Sanlang, but she hadn’t felt anything back then.

Even though Tong Sanlang did help her when she desperately needed it at that time, she felt more awkward and uncomfortable then.

This awkwardness and discomfort was too weak in the face of fear.

Therefore, this time, when fear enveloped her, leading to panic and despair, this embrace came at just the right time.

And it left a profound impression.

She was shocked then, but now thinking back on it, she remembered every detail.

Including the feeling of the embrace.

Seems…

Exactly like Qiao Dami said, it was comfortable and sturdy.

It felt just like when she suddenly got this superpower and beat up her ex-boyfriend and hooligans.

Comfortable and substantial.

She clicked her tongue.

She gave her head a little shake to cast out these thoughts, “No, let’s use the original price.”

What kind of previous cooperation? It’s probably a favor from Tong Sanlang.

She kept claiming that she wanted to keep her distance from people but couldn’t bear to part with the money. She definitely wouldn’t do it..
