As Xiao Yunyi spoke, he picked up a piece of spicy chicken from Lan Xi's bowl and gave her a piece of steamed fish.
Although what Xiao Yunyi had done tonight was already shocking enough, they did not expect him to be able to do such a thing.
They all knew that Xiao Yunyi had a slight obsession with cleanliness, and that he would never eat or use anything that others had used before. He didn't expect that he would directly receive the dish picked up by Lan Xi's chopsticks like that.
Others knew about this habit of Xiao Yunyi's, but Lan Xi didn't. In the past few days that she lived in the villa, she would occasionally eat with Xiao Yunyi. They served each other, too, and she thought it was quite normal.
However, the expressions on the faces of the other three were the same as when Qiao Lin saw Xiao Yunyi helping her with the dishes.
It seemed that Xiao Yunyi had quite a few problems. Lan Xi thought as she swallowed the food in her mouth. After that, another piece of vegetables appeared on the plate. She raised her head and saw that Xiao Yunyi was shaving a piece of fish in his bowl.
"Alright, alright, there's no need. Eat by yourself. This is too troublesome." Lan Xi hurriedly told him.
"I haven't said anything, how do you know this piece of meat is for you?"
Xiao Yunyi teased her as he moved slowly.
"Eh …" Lan Xi felt a little awkward. When she looked at Xiao Yunyi's malicious expression, she knew that he was teasing her. She then thought to herself, "So it wasn't for me, what a pity." I originally wanted to give you this chopping block, but now it's gone. "
Lan Xi was about to put the pork chop into her mouth when a pair of chopsticks cut the pork chop off and placed it into her bowl. "Eat well."
Xiao Yunyi used his chopsticks to pat her head as he spoke in a pampering tone.
Mu Yaran, who was at the side, watched their interaction. She was simply about to explode from anger, but she still had to pretend to be magnanimous.
Xiao Jianan also felt that Xiao Yunyi and Lan Xi's actions had been a little excessive. Moreover, he could tell that Xiao Yunyi was doing it on purpose for them to see. However, Lan Xi's actions were as though she was used to doing this. This meant that they were usually very close.
Xiao Jianan had originally been dissatisfied with Lan Xi's identity as an assassin, but now that he saw how intimate she was with Xiao Yunyi, he was even more displeased.
From his point of view, the girl had to love herself and be obedient. This was exactly what Mu Yuran was doing in front of him.
Seeing that Xiao Yunyi and Lan Xi were preparing the dishes for each other, Mu Yaran finally couldn't hold it in anymore. "Miss Lan, you can try cooking this stewed prawn. The main chef of the Xiao family is the best. It must be the taste that you haven't tasted before when you were outside, and you should know that this is one of Big Brother Xiao's favorite dishes. "
A prawn was placed in Lan Xi's bowl. Lan Xi didn't know whether she should peel it with her hands or with her mouth. But either way, it doesn't seem to be quite right now.
She looked at the prawn with a bit of distress, then looked at Xiao Yunyi for help.
Xiao Yunyi guessed that Lan Xi wanted him to help her think of a way, but Mu Yaran felt that his gaze was asking Xiao Yunyi to help her peel the prawns. She could not tolerate this any longer.
"Miss Lan." Mu Yaran spoke again, "I know that you are a guest and Brother Xiao has always been very polite to his guest. But your repeated requests are really too much. It's better to eat your own food. It might not be so good as someone else's food. "
"You misunderstand …" When Lan Xi had just started her sentence, she was interrupted by Xiao Yunyi. "She's injured and can't eat prawns."
It was a good excuse that could be used countless times, especially in such an awkward situation.
Mu Yaran, on the other hand, was roused by Xiao Yunyi's protective stance. The prawns couldn't be eaten, as well as the spicy dishes. However, there were still a lot of dishes on the table. She didn't believe that Lan Xi would be able to fend off all of them.
Looking at the soup in the corner, Mu Yaran had an idea.
"Sigh, then it really is my fault. I didn't think about Miss Blue's health. How could Miss Lan be hurt? Was it an accident at work? "
Mu Yaran said gently, but her words were laced with a hidden edge.
"There's no need for you to worry. Director Xiao's medical skills are very good, and the injuries on my body have already healed." Lan Xi coldly replied, "As for my work, you've already investigated it. Why are you putting on an act?"
The Xiao family's old patriarch looked at the people talking back and forth without any expression, like a cold and detached bystander. However, only he himself knew the evaluation towards Mu Yaran and Lan Xi.
Suddenly, Mu Yaran stood up and walked around the long table to Lan Xi's side.
"It's because I can't speak and I haven't thought it through properly. I'm really sorry." Mu Yaran sincerely apologized to Lan Xi. "It must be really hard on you to come to the Xiao family's dinner when you were injured. Furthermore, the dishes prepared tonight don't seem to suit your taste very well. However, I think you should be able to drink this vegetable soup, right? "
As Mu Yaran spoke, she picked up a bowl and scooped a bowl for Lan Xi. "Do you like it?" He carefully passed it to her.
However, just as Lan Xi was about to receive it, Mu Yaran released her hand in advance. She dropped her bowl and looked as though it was about to land on Lan Xi's body.
Lan Xi flipped her wrist reflexively, causing the bowl to be overturned. The soup was then scattered all over Mu Yaran's body.
Ahh!
Mu Yaran screamed continuously from the heat. She extended her hand to slap Lan Xi, but she was unable to move her wrist.
Old Man Xiao ordered Lan Xi to let go. Lan Xi sniggered and let go. Mu Yaran picked up a dish and placed it on Lan Xi's body, but she dodged it. Lan Xi became angry and pushed Mu Yaran onto the table.
The scene was a complete mess.
"Hehe, big brother, this is the friend you brought. My master is so good, to be able to beat someone up so easily. He truly is worthy of being a hitman." But if the Mu family knew that their daughter was being wronged here, who knows what they would do. "
Xiao Ran had seen enough of this farce and couldn't help but mock Xiao Yunyi.
When Xiao Jian An heard Xiao Ran's words, he glared at Xiao Yunyi and said, "You take care of the person you brought yourself." He then looked at Xiao Ran. "Don't you dare cause trouble here."
Not wanting to look anymore at this mess, Xiao Jianan left the restaurant.
"Tsk tsk tsk, this is the first time I've seen you being scolded by a grandpa. It really isn't easy. It seems like the woman you brought here is still useful." At least what he did tonight, ordinary women from aristocratic families would not be able to do. "
Xiao Yunyi cast Xiao Ran a glance and coldly smiled.
