No matter how hard she tried, Tao Yuxuan could only respectfully welcome Leng Qiankun's arrival and report in detail everything that had happened in the past year.
Especially what has happened in the last month.
The real heiress returns home, Shi Xi leaves home, and rumors circulate at the banquet...
Tao Yuxuan felt that in this palace intrigue drama, she was like a little eunuch by the emperor's side.
So tired.
"So, it was Ning Yu who upset Shi Xixi?" Leng Qiankun tapped the sofa armrest with his index finger.
Tao Yuxuan: "I think so. Ever since Ning Yu came back, Xixi is like a completely different person."
In a sense, Tao Yuxuan is quite right.
Leng Qiankun's lips curled into a sinister smile. "Ning Yu, that sounds so old-fashioned and boring."
Tao Yuxuan and Leng Qiankun practically grew up together, and she knew his habits very well. Whenever Leng Qiankun smiled, she knew it was definitely not a good thing.
Ning Yu is likely to be in trouble.
Tao Yuxuan quickly said, "Xixi told me before that I shouldn't target Ning Yu."
"Don't worry, I won't go too far." Leng Qiankun smiled. "I'll try to invite Ning Yu to my welcome banquet tomorrow as well."
Tao Yuxuan: ...They really treated her like a little eunuch.

At this moment, Shi Xi had already gotten into Xie Yunzhou's car and arrived at a small restaurant serving spicy hot pot.
The shop is newly opened and clean and tidy.
Shi Xi picked out many of her favorite dishes and then grabbed a can of iced cola.
Xie Yunzhou looked at the ingredients in front of him, then at Shi Xi, and could only accept his fate.
He returned by plane, exhausted, and only wanted to see Shi Xi. He wasn't hungry at all, so he casually picked out some dishes and asked the restaurant to make them slightly spicy.
After sitting down, Shi Xi still felt a little incredulous and stared at Xie Yunzhou.
"Why are you staring at me?" Xie Yunzhou asked directly. "Is there something on my face?"
"No, I thought you CEOs didn't eat these things." Shi Xi really couldn't imagine Xie Yunzhou eating spicy hot pot with her.
Just like she couldn't imagine what Sheng Yan would look like with a bald head.
Xie Yunzhou laughed and said, "I'm human too, what wouldn't I eat?"
Xie Yunzhou's smile vanished when the spicy hot pot, smeared with chili peppers, was served.
He remembered saying the words "mildly spicy".
Just as Xie Yunzhou was about to ask the shop owner, he saw Shi Xi's spicy hot pot, which was full of chili peppers.
Xie Yunzhou fell silent.
Is this really edible?
In his early years, he often worked overtime, ate irregularly, and drank alcohol frequently, which led to stomach pain.
Although things are much better now, seeing this huge field of chili peppers still makes me a little uneasy.
Shi Xi went to get the tableware and also served Xie Yunzhou some rice.
"You like spicy food?" Xie Yunzhou watched Shi Xi's actions and felt a slight stomachache.
"It's alright, I'm not a picky eater." Shi Xi asked, "You can't handle spicy food, can you?"
"Of course." Xie Yunzhou smiled gently, showing no sign of his impending stomach ache.
Looking at the chili peppers in front of him, Xie Yunzhou prepared himself to go to the hospital.
The price of going out to eat with Shi Xi is too high.
But Shi Xi didn't give him the chance to eat spicy food.
Shi Xi had only taken a few bites when she put down her chopsticks, her face pale, and clutched her lower abdomen.
Xie Yunzhou was pondering how to start eating when he sensed something was wrong. "What's wrong?"
The girl in front of me was deathly pale, her forehead was covered in cold sweat, and she was gritting her teeth, unable to speak.

Hospital.
After the doctor put Shi Xi on an IV drip, he scolded Xie Yunzhou, "She's physically weak. She can't eat spicy or cold food, and she can't get chilled during her period. What kind of boyfriend are you?"
