Li Leqin felt a mix of envy and sourness.

"So now our Xiaoyu needs to keep a low profile and bide her time in everything she does," Lin Xiaoying said. "After all, who knows, our Xiaoyu might just be the future First Lady!"

Upon hearing the words "First Lady".

Li Leqin's legs were unsteady.

"Therefore, I absolutely will not allow anyone to harm my Xiaoyu!" Lin Xiaoying said, emphasizing each word: "Not even Shi Nian!"

"Otherwise, it might affect Xiaoyu's chances of becoming the First Lady! Who can bear that responsibility!"

Li Leqin gasped again.

Lin Xiaoying's last words completely dispelled her concerns!

........

A little while later, Lin Xiaoying left Xiaocao's house.

When she reached the door, she heard Xiaocao scream: "Sister-in-law! You can't tell Niannian! You can't tell Niannian!"

Then there was a loud "bang".

It was the sound of something falling heavily to the ground.

Then Li Leqin came out again.

She held several scraps of paper in her hand and hurriedly left.

Lin Xiaoying laughed when she saw this.

She knew what Li Leqin was up to!

........

Night was falling.

Zhan Pingting returned to the White Jade Palace.

Nothing else.

I want to probe Shi Nian's bottom line again.

After all, Wei Huafeng was arrested.

This is enough to prove that her brother is still a normal man.

I'm still interested in a stunningly beautiful woman like Shiyu with her curves.

So if Zhan Xiuchen has normal aesthetic sense, why is he making stir-fried bok choy at home?

Therefore, Zhan Pingting felt she still needed to learn Shi Nian.

As soon as she stepped into the Jade Palace, she was spotted by Lili, who came out of the garden.

Lili immediately went up to her, her face beaming with smiles: "Miss Zhan."

Zhan Pingting nodded.

"Giggle!"

Just then, the sound of an old hen came from the garden.

Zhan Pingting frowned slightly: "I really want to stew these two old hens."

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhan Pingting continued, "But my brother doesn't want to, so I can't stew it even if I want to."

Lily immediately said, "Then it's definitely not possible to stew it. After all, the President is extremely fond of that woman. He even specifically instructed the kitchen to prepare extra lavish meals for her every time, just so that she can gain some weight."

Lili is good at reading people's expressions.

After realizing that Zhan Pingting's attitude towards Shi Nian was not friendly.

She no longer calls Lili "Madam".

When referring to Zhan Pingting, he directly called her "that woman".

"Oh, really?" Zhan Pingting smiled slightly.

"That's for sure! What a pity! That woman is such a country bumpkin! She doesn't know anything about food! All those delicacies would be a waste! By the way, Miss Zhan,"

At this point, Lily remembered something else and immediately said indignantly, "She doesn't even know how to use a knife and fork!"

Zhan Pingting took in Lili's expression.

She parted her red lips slightly and said, "Oh dear, I'm about to burst into tears. Why doesn't my brother cherish you as much as he does? Are you upset?"

Lili's face immediately changed color.

She quickly replied, "Miss, what are you saying? I am nothing, how could I dare to ask the President to cherish me?"

Zhan Pingting smiled and said, "If the woman living in the Jade Palace today were a rich young lady, you certainly wouldn't feel jealous. But she's just a lowly country bumpkin. How can you possibly feel happy about it?"

"Are you thinking, 'If a country bumpkin like this can be the First Lady, why can't I?'"

Lili's face was completely bloodless.

Zhan Pingting revealed all her thoughts!

Lili stammered, "Miss, I, I..."

Zhan Pingting patted Lili's shoulder: "It's okay, that's just human nature, but you'd better tone it down a bit, since I can see through it, let alone my brother."

After a pause, Zhan Pingting said meaningfully, "It's just that my brother is very busy and doesn't have time to care about the thoughts of a little maid."

Lili said awkwardly, "Miss, I'll remember what you say."

"Oh right, you said she doesn't even know how to use a knife and fork?" Zhan Pingting seemed to suddenly remember.

Lili nodded immediately.

Zhan Pingting's face immediately showed malice: "Then tell the kitchen that I will be having dinner at the White Jade Palace tonight, and that I like Western food, so tell the kitchen to prepare Western food."

........

Top-grade Wagyu beef steak.

A century-old vintage red wine.

Bouillabaisse, air-freighted.

Tonight's dinner was very plentiful.

They use only the best ingredients.

Western food is served with knives and forks.

All the chopsticks were removed.

At the dining table, Zhan Pingting sat opposite Shi Nian. She smiled and said to Shi Nian, "This steak is taken from the most precious part of the cow. It's succulent and juicy. Nian Nian, you must try it."

It was only their second meeting, but Zhan Pingting acted as if she were an old friend of Shi Nian for many years.

Shi Nian looked up at Aunt Fen standing to the side and asked, "Aunt Fen, could you get me a pair of chopsticks?"

The Jade Palace is astonishingly large.

Shi Nian did not know where the kitchen of Baiyu Palace was.

Upon hearing this, Aunt Fen was about to go and get it when Zhan Pingting spoke up, "No, how can you use chopsticks for Western food? Niannian, try using a knife and fork."

This sounds like it was said to Shi Nian.

But Zhan Pingting looked at Aunt Fen instead.

Aunt Fen isn't stupid.

She was caught in a dilemma: whether to go or not.

Shi Nian noticed Aunt Fen's predicament.

She didn't say anything, and simply picked up her knife and fork.
