Chapter 76 Fortunately, we arrived in time.



Jiang Xuelin did feel that Fu Hanlai was being a bit unreasonable. She hadn't invited him; she was just there to try the food. Besides, Fu Hanlai hadn't always been this kind of person.

What's wrong with me today?

"Alright, alright, the wedding procession will be here soon. Be quiet, or your mother will definitely punish you when we get back."

—If this keeps up, I'm going to hit someone.

I've tolerated your outbursts in front of so many people today, but I won't tolerate it if you continue to act unreasonably.

Others didn't understand Jiang Xuelin's underlying meaning, but Fu Hanlai did.

My heart clenched again.

I...will endure it!

Jiang Xuelin must sleep on the floor tonight!

He was afraid he would be infected by her stupidity!

Fu Hanlai couldn't even see through that woman's obvious scheming, and instead felt sorry for her. He had never seen Jiang Xuelin so blind!

Fu Hanlai, though seething inside, sat down without saying anything more. However, he kept flashing his eyes at Qingwan, who was sitting next to Jiang Xuelin. He stiffly picked up the clean chopsticks on the table and began to eat with a tense expression.

As soon as Qingwan's chopsticks reached for something, Fu Hanlai's chopsticks followed closely behind, quickly picking up a piece and placing it in Jiang Xuelin's bowl, his eyes still fixed on Qingwan—this young master will make this stupid girl Jiang Xuelin see your true colors!

Qingwan paused for a moment, then continued to bring the delicious and exquisite food to Jiang Xuelin's mouth.

When Fu Hanlai saw this, he realized it was serious and immediately picked up the food that was in the bowl and held it to Jiang Xuelin's mouth as well.

Jiang Xuelin: "..."

Faced with food being offered to her mouth at the same time, she fell silent for once, looking at Fu Hanlai with the eyes of someone who had lost their mind—what are you doing?

Moreover, is it possible that I, a girl with hands and feet, can pick it up myself?

For some reason, there was a sense of confrontation, and Jiang Xuelin was starting to think about becoming self-reliant.

Or should he just eat it himself?

I feel a bit of a toothache.

Fu Hanlai forced a smile, his eyes filled with threat.

If you dare to eat what she puts on your plate, don't blame me for being impolite!

Can that woman compare to me, the young master?

Can she even compare?!

Don't forget, I just helped you solve a big problem, protecting your and the Jing'an Marquis's family's reputation, and I was even misunderstood by my mother and confined to my quarters because of it!

Jiang Xuelin: "..."

Considering that she had come to see Fei Qing off, and that Fu Hanlai had indeed helped her a great deal this time, she reluctantly ate the food that Fu Hanlai had put in her mouth.

Since it was placed in front of her, Fu Hanlai had no chance to administer the laxative.

Seeing that Jiang Xuelin had eaten what he had picked for her and hadn't chosen what Qingwan had picked for her, Fu Hanlai finally felt like he had won and gave Qingwan a look from above.

Qingwan: "..."

He put down his chopsticks and did not continue to provoke.

The heir of this royal family is not someone like her who can be provoked. If she continues, there might be big trouble later. It's better not to. She knows her own limitations.

Moreover...

Now that she has seen it with her own eyes, Qingwan feels that the Jiang family girl and the Prince of Ping are indeed a rare and well-matched couple.

However, it seems that Prince Ping's heir has not yet realized his feelings for his heir's wife.

The Crown Princess was also unaware of all this.

Since that's the case, Qingwan naturally won't point it out, but she can only offer her blessings to the two of them.

Qingwan stopped trying to feed Jiang Xuelin and watched Fu Hanlai do it with great interest.

Jiang Xuelin didn't know what was wrong with Fu Hanlai, but since she was being served food, not the other way around, she naturally had no objections and would eat whatever was offered to her.

Others naturally didn't comment on what happened to the two of them; they simply watched quietly.

They had just drunk wine and weren't hungry, so they didn't dare show that they hadn't eaten much, for fear that Jiang Xuelin would remember that they had been eating, drinking, and having fun with geishas in broad daylight and would beat them all up if she was unhappy.

...and I'm also afraid these geishas will complain to Jiang Xuelin.

Although they didn't really plan to do anything, just hold hands and hug each other, who knows what Jiang Xuelin might think? Just in case, it's better to stay quiet.

Yu Bo thought about how he had been caught speaking ill of Jiang Xuelin last time, and how he had even promised Jiang Xuelin a favor, so he was even less likely to do anything.

So now the strange scene is that the music continues, and several usually arrogant playboys are sitting there timidly, like children about to face an exam, while on the other side, a young and handsome man keeps putting food on a beautiful woman's plate and feeding her.

If you didn't know their identities or were very familiar with them, you would really think they were a loving couple, with the husband taking good care of his wife.

How sweet and wonderful!

But these two people are Fu Hanlai and Jiang Xuelin!

Everyone in the capital knows that these two are mortal enemies who have been fighting each other since childhood.

Anyway, they were getting a stomachache watching it.

...To be honest, Jiang Xuelin also had a stomachache after eating this meal.

Unfortunately, she didn't know what Fu Hanlai was up to, and because he had indeed helped her a lot in the past, she tolerated his obviously erratic behavior.

...But this meal really gave me a stomachache.

Fortunately, because of the earlier delays, the meal didn't last long before the sounds of gongs, drums, and various other noises came from outside the window.

The wedding procession is coming.

"Alright, alright, the wedding procession is here!" Hearing the commotion outside, Jiang Xuelin immediately got up—so she decided to skip the meal and watch the excitement first.

This is the wedding day of the Third Prince and the Second Daughter of the Yongchang Marquis's Mansion!

When a woman gets married, her dowry is the most important thing. What onlookers enjoy is the size of the dowry. A month ago, Jiang Xuelin was married into the Pingwang Mansion with a grand wedding procession, while the Fei family girl who was originally going to marry into the Pingwang Mansion is marrying the Third Prince today. Naturally, people want to see whether Fei Qing's dowry is more or less than Jiang Xuelin's.

Jiang Xuelin wasn't very interested in this, and guessed that Fei Qing's dowry was probably not as good as hers.

The current mistress of the Yongchang Marquis's mansion is not Fei Qing's biological mother, but her stepmother, so how could she possibly care too much about her?

Just because she wasn't interested doesn't mean the others in the private room weren't interested either.

Jiang Xuelin got up and walked to the window, opened it, and looked down at the joyous wedding procession. She couldn't help but sigh that this was how her wedding had been last time.

After Jiang Xuelin got up and left, Fu Hanlai breathed a sigh of relief.

He felt something was off after feeding her for so long, and was waiting for Jiang Xuelin to get impatient and tell him to put her down.

As a result, Jiang Xuelin remained silent the entire time.

Fortunately, the wedding procession arrived in time.

Standing by the window looking down, Jiang Xuelin was also thinking the same thing.

Fortunately, the wedding procession arrived in time!
