Xia Xibei had to admit that her mood brightened up the moment Qiao Yanjue denied having any relations with Li Weiyun.
She even took a piece of meat for Qiao Yanjue with her chopsticks.
“You should eat too.”
An idea occurred to Qiao Yanjue as he looked at her smiling face. He wiggled his fingers, “I have to peel the shrimps.”
He opened his mouth when he was done talking, exposing his tidy white teeth.
Xia Xibei was dazed for a moment, blinking in confusion.
“Quick,” Qiao Yanjue hastened, “I have to get on with the peeling.”
Xia Xibei hesitated for a moment, before decisively placing the piece of meat in his hand.
“Eat.”
He shouldn’t mind eating meat with his hands since he had gotten them dirty while peeling the shrimps in the first place.
Qiao Yanjue was speechless, while Huo Zijun and Jiang Yuran were shocked.
Both of them were pretending to be busy eating while secretly observing the couple’s actions, but Xia Xibei’s unexpected move almost made them spit out their food.
Luckily, they didn’t have anything in their mouths at that moment. Otherwise, all the dishes on the table would have been ruined.
The two of them started coughing, as they had nearly choked.
“Sorry, sorry! My throat is suddenly so itchy!”
Huo Zijun grabbed the glass on the table and started gulping down water, his face flushed red.
Jiang Yuran nearly burst out laughing.
Qiao Yanjue wasn’t good at flirting with girls indeed!
Of course, it was mainly because the girl wasn’t in the mood for it.
Qiao Yanjue’s face turned very dark as he stared at the piece of meat in his hand.
After a very long moment, he finally stuffed the meat into his mouth.
Jiang Yuran nearly spat his water again.
Qiao Yanjue actually ate with his hand?! He was out of his mind!
Jiang Yuran couldn’t help but shake his head with a deep sigh.
Just how did a bright, young man turn into someone like this? Love really did drive people insane!
However, what shocked him more was that Qiao Yanjue quickly adjusted his mood, carrying on with his task of peeling shrimp.
Towards the end of the meal, he couldn’t even bear to look at Qiao Yanjue anymore. It was too much of an eyesore!
He would have captured the moment with a camera if he could, so that he could show it to the whole world!
He didn’t dare to do such a thing, of course. All he could do was try to distract himself by chatting with Huo Zijun.
“By the way, have you found the herbs that I asked you to?”
Huo Zijun nodded, “I found them. I was going to tell you when you happened to show up.”
Jiang Yuran was glad.
“Great! I’ll give them to my older brother, so he’ll take care of his health.”
Jiang Yuran’s older brother, Jiang Liran, was in his early thirties this year, meant to be his fit, youthful years. However, his health wasn’t great. Despite not having any major illnesses, he had always been under the weather.
Having attended many health check-ups, he was simply deemed generally frail.
The entire Jiang family was speechless. He had been alright in the past. It wasn’t like he could fight a bull but running 1.5 kilometers without exhaustion was certainly no big deal for him.
How did he become so frail all of a sudden?
Regardless of the cause, all the members of the Jiang family were concerned with his health.
Jiang Yuran was only ever interested in having fun and enjoying life; the family business was never his thing. That was why he worried for Jiang Liran’s health a lot.
After all, Jiang Liran was the pillar of the Jiang family.
Jiang Yuran never wanted to shoulder any of the responsibilities.
“You! Look at you!” Huo Zijun couldn’t help but shake his head, “If you could just be a little more serious, your brother wouldn’t be so burned out!”
Jiang Yuran shrugged, “But I’m just lazy! Haiya, it’s no big deal. The capable ones should always work harder!”

Huo Zijun rolled his eyes, not wanting to talk to him anymore.
“I happen to have the stuff with me, I’ll hand them to you.”
Huo Zijun took out a bag and opened the box inside.
Upon detecting the familiar scent, Xia Xibei turned swiftly to look, her eyes shining so bright, it was almost frightening.
