Upon entering Tianxin Tower, she assumed Chuanwen would go to a private room, but instead she saw him sitting in the main hall with several other people at the same table. At first glance, they turned out to be people from Xiao Liang Kingdom.

"Little girl, this is delicious. Here, have some."

Fang He and the old man Hong Yue presented Chuan Wen with a plate of soft and sweet pastries, smiling happily. They wondered how this girl could grow up to be so beautiful, as they had never seen anyone so pretty before.

They had met before at a palace banquet, and now that they met again, they invited Chuanwen over to eat together. Good-looking people are always popular.

However, Chuanwen frowned when she looked at the plate of pastries they handed her. It wasn't that she was picky, but the pastries were indeed not very tasty; they were too sweet and not delicate enough.

Despite the high prices and large number of customers at Tianxinlou, it's not necessarily true that all the dim sum is delicious. Some are both expensive and unpalatable, and I don't know why the chefs there have been able to stay in the kitchen until now.

Chuanwen glanced at the dishes of snacks on their table, and for some reason, he was so precise that Xiao Liangguo and his group had ordered all the unpalatable ones.

Chuanwen summoned the waiter and ordered all the dishes he usually liked to eat. After the waiter left happily, Chuanwen looked back and saw that Fang He and the others' faces were a little green.

"Um, these dishes you ordered aren't cheap, are they?"

Hongyue felt a little embarrassed. It wasn't that they were stingy, but that they really didn't have any money. They had to really grit their teeth and order these few items.

The Liang Guo group was already considering whether to just dine and dash for this meal. As for losing face, they weren't afraid. What's face worth anyway? A meal is much more worthwhile!

"This meal is on me!"

Just as Fang He and the others were dart around with their eyes, Chuan Wen said with great enthusiasm.

"Oh, this, I really can't accept this..."

They said they were sorry, but their hands were already rubbing together, reaching for the plates of snacks on the table.

I was reluctant to eat it earlier, but now that someone's treating me, I might as well eat it!

One of them even yelled and called the waiter over, who then added more than a dozen more items.

Wen Xue's lips twitched. "Have they no shame? A bunch of grown men are ripping off a girl!"

Wen Xue was just standing up for Chuan Wen when she turned around and saw Chuan Wen pull out a handful of gold melon seeds from his purse and say generously, "Add more! We have plenty of money!"

Wenxue: Uh...

Hua Jing, who was standing at the door and saw this scene, also wanted to facepalm. Originally, with Chuanwen's looks and abilities, she didn't think that the other party could be interested in her stupid husband. But, well... as she saw in front of her, the other party's brain would twitch from time to time, so who knew if she would suddenly fall for her stupid husband.

Seeing that Chuanwen was with others, Hua Jing could only find another opportunity to talk to him. However, since she was already inside, she decided to take two boxes of pastries back with her.

However, after walking in only a few steps, Chuanwen saw her. She saw that his eyes lit up and he greeted her, inviting her to come and sit down.

[Rumors can't last forever, otherwise they'll become reality over time. I'm still a virgin!]

What the hell is this about a virgin?

Wen Xue almost choked on Chuan Wen's shameless address. Besides, what young woman would be thinking about a man's abs and biceps every day?

"What a coincidence."

Hua Jing couldn't hear Chuan Wen's inner thoughts, so after sitting down, he exchanged pleasantries with Chuan Wen.

However, the group from Xiao Liang Kingdom were somewhat wary of Hua Jing. They had been in the capital for several days and knew that Hua Jing was a princess from the Western Regions and that she always went to the emperor to ask for electricity.

Therefore, from a certain standpoint, they and Huajing are in a competitive relationship. However, fortunately, they have already surrendered to Dajin and become a part of Dajin, so Dajin will develop them first!

"Has Mrs. Du ever heard of Zhou Shuqin?"

Chuanwen didn't have the inclination to beat around the bush, which is why she couldn't directly reveal the plot; otherwise, she would have simply said that Zhou Shuqin, that female contestant, fabricated my Huang Yao.

Hua Jing was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Chuanwen wanted to say, so she nodded hesitantly, "I heard she is a wealthy merchant from Jiangnan. She even gave me a bowl of fish soup before, and I thought it tasted pretty good."

"Speaking of fish soup, let me tell you a story?"

Chuanwen looked at Huajing with a bright and excited expression. Before Huajing could even nod, the guys from Xiaoliang Kingdom were already engrossed in their conversation, enjoying their snacks and listening to stories. How wonderful!

Wenxue silently started eating sunflower seeds. Based on her experience, Chuanwen was about to start making things up again.

“Okay.” Hua Jing was very accommodating.

Chuanwen cleared his throat and began to ramble—or rather, to tell his story—"Once upon a time, there were four fish, named Little One, Little Two, Little Three, and Little Four. Little One and Little Two were a couple. Although they often quarreled, Little One, the male fish, was particularly obedient to his mother, but at least there was no third party involved."

However, one day, while the third sister was swimming in the water, she suddenly saw a fish that was prettier and cuter than her swim by. This fish was the fourth sister. She became jealous and couldn't eat or sleep properly because of her jealousy.

Just as she was going crazy with jealousy, she saw the couple, Xiao Yi and Xiao Er, swimming past. A plan formed in her mind. She swam over, grabbed Xiao Er, and accused Xiao Si and Xiao Yi of having an affair, even though Xiao Yi and Xiao Si had never even spoken to each other.

Fang He and his friends were listening with great interest when the story abruptly ended, leaving them all bewildered.

"Then what?"

Fang He asked, and Chuan Wen simply shrugged, "That's all."

Fang He and the others didn't understand, but Hua Jing understood immediately. Her expression turned somewhat unpleasant; she had been used as a pawn by Zhou Shuqin.

After leaving Tianxin Tower, Hua Jing's face darkened. When he returned to the Du residence and saw Du Binghai lying on the bed groaning, he was even more furious. He glared at him and cursed, "Useless thing!"
