A few minutes later.
Zhan Pingting forced a smile and said, "Brother, I wanted to eat Western food, so I specially asked the chef to prepare it, I..."
Before she could finish speaking, Zhan Pingting suddenly stopped.
Since Zhan Xiuchen had asked the question.
Then they must have noticed something amiss.
He was so perceptive.
The more she explained, the less effective it became.
Therefore, Zhan Pingting paused for a moment, then said nothing more, only uttering four words: "Brother, I was wrong."
Zhan Xiuchen's expression was dark and unreadable, but a cold stern look appeared between his brows: "Pingting, you are still young and may not be sensible, but you should know how to respect your sister-in-law."
Zhan Xiuchen's voice was flat, without any inflection.
But the sound of it sends chills down your spine.
A chill ran down Zhan Pingting's back.
She was careless.
Zhan Xiuchen became interested in Shi Yu, which gave her confidence.
She thought that this stir-fried bok choy didn't hold a very important place in Zhan Xiuchen's heart.
That's why she dared to test the waters with this stir-fried bok choy.
Look at how openly they mocked her.
How will she react?
But unexpectedly, she made a mistake!
sister in law?
Zhan Xiuchen actually said that the stir-fried bok choy was her sister-in-law?
Zhan Pingting's heart sank slightly.
So what exactly does Zhan Xiuchen want to do?
Zhan Pingting was unfathomable, but she didn't reveal a word of it on her face.
She lowered her eyes, her voice pleading: "Brother, I've remembered every single word you just said to me. I promise I won't do it again."
Zhan Xiuchen then looked at the group of servants, his gaze deep and sharp.
An oppressive feeling spread to everyone present.
He spoke, his voice icy: "And you too! Shi Nian is the lady of Baiyu Palace. You'd better remember exactly what she likes to eat and what she likes to use! Otherwise, if you can't even take care of the lady, you won't need to stay in Baiyu Palace!"
The servants were so frightened that their legs trembled, and they all nodded in agreement.
Lili, in particular, was sweating profusely.
Fortunately, the president hadn't returned yet when she was joking and reciting it!
Otherwise, what if the President catches them!
So, is she still able to stand here right now?
While relieved, Lili also felt a sense of unease.
Although the president did not witness it.
But that country bumpkin wouldn't run to the president to complain, would he?
Thinking about this, Lili felt both regret and frustration!
How could she have such audacity!
How dare you laugh at this country bumpkin!
........
Lili was worried that Shi Nian would complain to Zhan Xiuchen.
However, Shi Nian had no such intention.
Including the previous incident where Zhan Pingting's gold chain was stolen.
In the end, Shi Nian managed to extricate herself from the situation.
But that doesn't mean Shi Nian thought it was just an accident.
But afterwards, she did not complain to Zhan Xiuchen.
Because she had her concerns.
"Didn't you say you were going to rest? Why are you sitting here?" A deep, magnetic voice suddenly entered my ears.
Shi Nian looked up as she sat on a garden bench, deep in thought.
Zhan Xiuchen has arrived.
It was already late at night.
The moonlight enveloped the earth.
Zhan Xiuchen seemed to arrive stepping on the moon.
The soft moonlight bathed him, giving him a halo and making him appear even more handsome.
“Look at them,” Shi Nian said softly.
Her gaze fell on the two old hens in front of her.
The two hens were already asleep.
Perhaps it was because they ate and slept well in the Jade Palace.
Both hens have gotten quite plump.
Chubby.
Zhan Xiu sat down beside Shi Nian, keeping her company as she watched the two sleeping hens.
During this time, Shi Nian did not utter a single word.
Silence spread between the two.
Finally, Zhan Xiuchen broke the silence.
He didn't mean it, his tone was as if he were just casually mentioning it: "If anyone makes you unhappy in the future, you can tell me."
Shi Nian was taken aback.
She suddenly remembered that two servants had passed by when Zhan Xiu sank.
The two maids looked at her tremblingly, bowing repeatedly to greet her, and saying they would never let the kitchen prepare Western food again.
Shi Nian immediately understood.
She glanced at Zhan Xiuchen in surprise.
Zhan Xiuchen arrived late and didn't hear the laughter or sarcasm.
But I never expected men to be so perceptive.
He suddenly understood everything.
The Western food was just a way to mock her.
“No need, you don’t need to stand up for me,” Shi Nian said. “Because they can’t laugh at me. I’m thick-skinned and I don’t think it’s shameful to not know how to use a knife and fork.”
Zhan Xiu's eyes darkened slightly: "But you are my wife, and I will not allow anyone to laugh at you."
After a pause, Zhan Xiuchen continued, "You don't need to worry about troubling me by telling me."
Shi Nian glanced at Zhan Xiuchen again, then said, "You're overthinking it. I'm not afraid of troubling you."
Zhan Xiuchen: "......."
