Chapter 380: The Angry Warlords of the Republic of China vs. the Educated and Well-mannered Overseas Daughter
She raised her leg and kicked his calf rudely:
"Get lost! Who's going to give birth to your child before you even start dating?"
Si Jinnian took the opportunity to grab her ankle and held it in his hand. With his other hand, he touched her lower abdomen, and a meaningful smile flashed in his eyes:
"Jiaojiao, maybe my daughter is already in there."
Quan Jiu: “…”
The incident happened suddenly last night, and the family had nothing prepared, so...
She glared at Si Jinnian and said, "You're dreaming of hitting the target every time."
Si Jinnian kept smiling and teased her deliberately:
"Jiaojiao, what name should we give our daughter?"
“Get out, get out, get out!!”
Quan Jiu kicked the man off the bed.
…
Bamboo Garden, elegant room.
When Si Jinnian walked into the house holding Quan Jiu's hand, a large group of people were already sitting at the dining table.
"Third Master, you are late."
Fan Sheng stared at Si Jinnian with a smile, completely devoid of the anger he had shown in the past few days.
Quan Jiu glanced sideways and found that there was a young talent sitting next to Fan Lingyu. He was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, with an average appearance. Not to mention that he was not as good as Si Jinnian, he was not even as good as Li Yang.
Her eyes flickered slightly, and she roughly guessed the man's identity.
The son of the Du family, Du Haining.
Du Haining sat beside Fan Lingyu, picked up a shrimp for her and put it in the bowl.
"Lingyu, the seafood in Jincheng is famous for its deliciousness. You should try it."
Fan Lingyu forced a smile: "Thank you."
Compared to Du Haining, she still prefers the decisive and ruthless masculinity of the Third Master.
Si Jinnian seemed not to notice the interaction between the two. He took Quan Jiu's hand and sat down in the only two seats in the venue.
As soon as she sat down, the commanders looked at her with somewhat subtle expressions.
It is beautiful, but they will never agree to give up the power of the Fan family for a woman.
As long as a man has enough power, what kind of beauty in the world can't he get?
In their opinion, Si Jinnian was still too stupid.
Despite everyone's calculating gazes, Quan Jiu calmly picked up his chopsticks and started eating.
The other commanders frowned. This woman was really rude.
Seeing this, Du Haining silently picked up another crab for Fan Lingyu:
“This one is delicious too.”
Fan Lingyu glanced at Quan Jiu's empty bowl and his expression eased slightly.
Although the Third Master is handsome, he has been in a high position for too long and does not know how to care for others, let alone lower himself to serve women.
She tilted her head and gave Du Haining a sincere smile:
"Mr. Du, just eat by yourself. You don't need to take care of me."
Du Haining shook his head decisively and said sweetly:
"It's not right for a gentleman to let a lady cook for herself. If there's anything else Miss Fan wants to eat, please tell me and I'll ask the kitchen to add more for you."
Quan Jiu saw through Fan Lingyu's intention to show off at a glance, but she didn't care at all. It was simply stupid to engage in intrigue in front of delicious food.
She lowered her head and gnawed the chicken leg more happily. Only when she looked up occasionally, her eyes would linger for a brief second on the king crab and blanched prawns.
Thinking of the hard shrimp and crab shells, she silently turned her eyes away.
Si Jinnian noticed her little movement and leaned towards her:
"Want to eat?"
Quan Jiu still had a chicken leg in his mouth, and his words were unclear: "...but I'm too lazy to peel it."
Nothing is difficult in the world as long as you are willing to give up. The pain of peeling the shell is greater than the joy of eating the meat, so she decisively chose to give up.
Si Jinnian tapped his fingertips on the table, moved closer to her, and spoke in a lowered tone:
"Peel a shrimp. Will you take the initiative once tonight?"
“Cough cough cough…”
Quan Jiu hadn't swallowed the large piece of meat stuck in his throat yet, and when he suddenly heard his perverted conditions, he almost choked to death while trying to catch his breath.
She stared at the plate full of prawns with a look of horror in her eyes:
"There are at least twenty of them here, right?"
Si Jinnian placed one hand on the back of her chair, enclosing her in his area, and lowered his voice to ensure that no one else could hear:
"If that's not enough, there's more in the kitchen."
Quan Jiu: “???”
Brother, are you too confident in yourself?
Without waiting for her to speak, Si Jinnian waved his hand and began to peel the shrimp slowly and steadily.
At the beginning, the man's movements were obviously a little unfamiliar, and it took him a minute to peel a shrimp. But not long after, his movements gradually became faster, and he could peel a shrimp neatly in about half a minute.
"I didn't expect that Third Master, a native of Jincheng, actually likes eating shrimp so much."
Commander Zhang couldn't help but joke when he saw that he didn't touch the other dishes at all and was concentrating on peeling the shrimp.
He doesn't eat any other vegetables but shrimps. It seems that the Third Master loves shrimps deeply.
There were already four whole red and white shrimps lying on the plate next to Si Jinnian. He slowly peeled the fifth shrimp and nodded.
"good."
He pushed the plate towards the wine.
Quan Jiu stared at the white and tender shrimps with a troubled look on his face. Finally, he picked up the chopsticks, picked up one and put it in his mouth. He puffed up his cheeks and ate with a resentful look on his face.
Five times is five times.
Commander Zhang's joking smile froze on his face. He looked at Quan Jiu in surprise and found that the woman looked very reluctant while eating. The shock and surprise in his heart became even stronger.
He knew that Si Jinnian spoiled her, but he didn't expect that he could do this.
Seeing that he was about to continue peeling the sixth shrimp, Quan Jiu decisively held down his hand:
“Enough is enough!”
Her old waist really can't take it!
Si Jinnian stopped reluctantly:
"Um."
Fan Lingyu was originally happy about Du Haining's thoughtfulness, but at this moment, staring at the red oil and dirt on her plastic gloves, she instantly lost her appetite.
There is no harm without comparison.
It stands to reason that Du Haining, as a second-generation red from a famous family, is already giving you face by constantly picking up food for you in public. However, Si Jinnian, as a first-generation red who holds real power, actually peels shrimps for a woman himself.
In comparison, Du Haining's performance just now was particularly... hypocritical.
She said a lot of sweet words, but actually did nothing. On the other hand, Si Jinnian peeled five shrimps without showing off.
Everyone present sensed the subtle contrast. Du Haining, one of the parties involved, looked embarrassed and weird.
For these gifted men, women are like domestic pets. When they are in a good mood, they can pamper them, tease them, and give them some love.
But people are people after all, and pets are pets after all. They will never allow pets to climb over their heads.
The smile on Fan Lingyu's face disappeared.
Men in high positions and with great power tend to be somewhat patriarchal. In such social situations, everyone assumes that women should serve men, and even her mother is no exception.
She stared at Quan Jiu so hard that her eyes felt sore. She couldn't tell what was so good about her!
Commander Du suddenly said in a sarcastic tone:
"The Third Master is good at pampering women."
Si Jinnian disagreed: "If I don't pamper my own woman, who else should I pamper?"
