“What is it?” Jiang Xinxin asked, but her eyes were not on it at all. She was still looking at the bowl and chopsticks in her hand.

Lu Yuanzhi was a little annoyed. How could he eat it without asking? And she seemed to know about it, but she did not tell him. Looking at the bowl and chopsticks in her hand and the leftovers on the table, he thought to himself, ‘No wonder this person made such a big table of delicious food. Could it be that she wanted to use the food to bribe me so that I won’t pursue this matter?’

Jiang Xinxin noticed that Lu Yuanzhi had not moved for a long time, so she secretly raised her gaze and looked in his direction. She immediately saw Lu Yuanzhi standing there with angry lines on his face, and an unpleasant expression.

‘It’s over, it’s over, I’ve really offended him this time.’

She originally thought that if she did not tell Lu Yuanzhi, he would not find out about this matter. However, he just had to see the list that she had written. Facing Lu Yuanzhi’s questions, Jiang Xinxin wanted to cry but had no tears. She opened her mouth with a trembling voice, wanting to explain. However, just as Jiang Xinxin opened her mouth, the man in front of her suddenly took a step forward and walked towards her!

She stepped back subconsciously. Jiang Xinxin wanted to stop him from getting closer. “Listen to me…”

“Say it.” Lu Yuanzhi moved closer to her calmly. “I’m listening.”

Jiang Xinxin braced herself and explained, “Although it’s cat pudding, the ingredients are very fresh and processed. It’s actually edible. I promise there won’t be any problems. Don’t be angry, okay?”

“It’s edible?” Lu Yuanzhi crossed his arms and raised his chin slightly. He looked down at her and said rudely, “Then eat one.”

Jiang Xinxin was speechless. ‘There’s no need for that, right?’ However, Lu Yuanzhi’s expression showed that he was not joking in the slightest. Jiang Xinxin thought that this person was indeed vengeful. She did not make it clear that he ate cat pudding, so he wanted her to eat one too as revenge. His character could be said to be quite bad.

Jiang Xinxin argued, “Can I use other delicious food to compensate you?” As she spoke, she begged in a coquettish tone, “I beg you, don’t let me eat cat pudding, okay…?”

The displeasure on Lu Yuanzhi’s face seemed to have eased a little, but he did not stop until he had forced Jiang Xinxin into a corner, with her back against the wall, and there was no way to retreat. Only then did he stretch out his hand to trap the weak Jiang Xinxin between the corner of the wall and his chest, lowering his head and looking at her aggressively.

Jiang Xinxin did not dare to look at him at all, because his aura was too strong. Just looking into his eyes, Jiang Xinxin’s heart beat faster, not to mention that the two of them were so close now.

“You want to make it up to me?” Lu Yuanzhi’s tone was very light. “It’s not so easy to make it up to me.”

Since he was going along with what she said, it meant that there was a turning point in this matter, Jiang Xinxin quickly promised, “It’s okay. You can ask me to make it up to you however you want. As long as you don’t force me to eat cat pudding, I’ll agree to anything!”

Lu Yuanzhi lowered his eyes and looked at her chattering little mouth. His eyes darkened. Her mouth was pink, and was uniquely tender like a young girl’s. He had tasted it countless times, so he was sure that it was the most delicious thing in the world.

Thus, as soon as Jiang Xinxin finished speaking, Lu Yuanzhi’s kiss landed on her lips.

Jiang Xinxin was dumbfounded. She had never expected Lu Yuanzhi to do such a thing. Didn’t Lu Yuanzhi hate her? Why would he suddenly kiss her? Could it be that her aunt plan was about to succeed?

Just as she was distracted, a large hand pinched her chin and lifted her face, which was drooping lower and lower because of her shyness and shock. He said in her ear unhappily, “Miss Jiang, please pay attention when you’re making it up to me.”

With that, he kissed her again — with the frenzy of a storm!
