Chapter 49 - The Man Who Serves Women

After hearing this, Qin Ruo Chu didn't know whether to put the meat in or not, and froze in place for a moment.

Right at this moment, Shen Shu Zhou who was seated opposite of them exclaimed, "What's wrong with that? If I had such a beautiful little wife, I would have waited on her happily as well …"

Hearing Shen Shu Zhou's words, the corner of Qin Ruo Chu's eyes twitched, and she could not help but look at him, just in time to see the smiling expression in his eyes.

Shen Mu Qiao who was at the side elbowed Qin Ruo Chu, causing him to come back to his senses, and only heard him say, "Don't listen to those nonsense, you should eat and drink … "What's there to be afraid of? My brother is here."

Of course, Shen Mu Qiao's words were said with a suppressed voice. Although Shen Mu Qiao's words gave Qin Ruo Chu some comfort, she still sneaked a peek at the pale Old Lady Shen before she ate the piece of meat in her hand.

"Old granny, you really have good eyes. Look, our Yi Tong is both generous and beautiful. The most important thing is that she's a very smart girl. That's all. Not everyone can compare to her." Wang Xiu Yun, who had just been scolded by the Old Lady Shen, was now dishonest again.

Qin Ruo Chu was eating the food Shen Mu Sheng gave her on the plate. Upon hearing this, her body visibly stiffened, but she quickly returned to normal and continued to eat the food on the plate. She did not raise her head or speak, as if she hadn't heard anything.

On the other hand, Shen Mu Sheng only opened his eyes after hearing this, and impatiently glanced at Wang Xiu Yun who was at the other end of the table.

Wang Xiu Yun naturally accepted Shen Mu Sheng's cold gaze, and the hand holding the chopsticks froze, "With Miss Tong's outstanding skills, it is a fact, everyone has seen it, right …."

The question was a question, but no one replied her. Seeing that Shen Mu Sheng had retracted his gaze and was looking at another table full of people, Wang Xiu Yun became a little bolder.

"Only a cultured child like Yi Tong is qualified to enter our Shen family's gates. Old granny, do you think I'm right?" Wang Xiu Yun fawned and asked.

Old Lady Shen raised her eyelids and looked at her, but she did not say anything. It was not only tacit agreement or what she meant, it was Qiao Yi Tong who spoke up.

"Don't praise me like that. You're actually not that outstanding either. If you say it like that, it will easily cause others to misunderstand. This isn't good." Saying that, Qiao Yi Tong glanced at Qin Ruo Chu with some ulterior motive, and then smiled and went to get food for Old Lady Shen.

"What I said was the truth. Our Shen family is a well-known family in the Cloud City, so naturally, our mistress is a lady. If any other kind of cat or dog could be our mistress, then it would be a joke … …" Wang Xiu Yun said in an even more unrestrained manner.

Because of Wang Xiu Yun's few words, Qin Ruo Chu could neither laugh nor eat awkwardly, he just stood there on the dining table, not knowing how to respond.

Inadvertently, Qin Ruo Chu raised his head and coincidentally met Qiao Yi Tong's gaze. Qiao Yi Tong raised his eyebrows, undisguised provocation could be seen in his eyes.

That gaze seemed to be saying: "Did you hear that, Qin Ruo Chu is talking about you!"

Qin Ruo Chu took the initiative to look away, and for some reason, he suddenly had a sour feeling in his nose. He held the chopsticks tightly in his hand, and lowered his head.

"Qin Ruo Chu, it's really useless, are you not able to take my words? Didn't they say that if they stood together with Shen Mu Sheng, they would be able to endure any difficulties? Qin Ruo Chu scolded himself in his heart.

When she raised her head again, Qin Ruo Chu had already calmed himself down, he had a relaxed look, but when she raised her head, he saw that she was looking at him.

"What's wrong …" Qin Ruo Chu was startled for a moment, then laughed and asked softly. She knew that Shen Mu Sheng was worried about her, afraid that she would not be able to endure these gossips.

Qin Ruo Chu laughed, "I'm fine …. And I want to eat prawns. " Shen Mu Sheng raised his eyebrows, and the corner of his mouth raised into a smile. He was very satisfied with Qin Ruo Chu's performance.

With a pampering heart, Shen Mu Sheng peeled a prawn for Qin Ruo Chu. Shen Mu Sheng peeled the prawns skillfully, but also gracefully. He placed the prawn on a plate, then used his other hand to pry off the head and other parts of the prawn. He then used his fork to cut through the gap in the prawn skin, and with a flip, the prawn meat was completely detached from the prawn skin.

This time, Shen Mu Sheng did not put the meat on Qin Ruo Chu's plate, but used his fork to fork next to Qin Ruo Chu's mouth.

Qin Ruo Chu was startled for a moment, then her face immediately flushed. Normally, Shen Mu Sheng's actions would not be this normal, so she would definitely eat him without hesitation. With so many people watching, as well as Qin Ruo Chu's thin-skinned face, he was obviously unwilling to give in.

She reached out to grab the fork in Shen Mu Sheng's hand while lowering her voice, using words that only the two of them could hear, "There's so many people watching, I can do it myself …"

Unexpectedly, Shen Mu Sheng retracted his hand and didn't allow Qin Ruo Chu to take the fork back. "Open your mouth …" The overbearing commanding tone made Qin Ruo Chu's face turn even more red. Seeing that Shen Mu Sheng acted like 'if you don't want to eat, then I'll keep holding it up', Qin Ruo Chu could only open his mouth and eat the prawn meat on Shen Mu Sheng's fork in front of everyone's eyes.

Only then did Shen Mu Sheng retract his hand, but before Qin Ruo Chu could swallow the meat, someone had spoken.

"Is it something a man should do to take care of a woman while she eats?" She couldn't bear to see Shen Mu Sheng and Qin Ruo Chu's interaction from the very start, but now, Shen Mu Sheng was actually so blatantly doing this, and it was all just for them to see.

Qin Ruo Chu's mouth did not even dare move as he glanced at Shen Mu Sheng beside him. He was actually very at ease, as he was gracefully sipping a mouthful of red wine.

Qin Ruo Chu could not bear to hear Old Lady Shen say such words about Shen Mu Sheng, but just as he was about to explain, he was interrupted by Shen Mu Qiao.

"Grandmother, that's just a feudal idea. Right now, we are both men and women, why can't the men take care of the women and serve the women? "In love, where is the inferiority of men and women …" Shen Mu Qiao said vaguely as he ate.

After the Old Lady Shen heard Shen Mu Qiao's words, she snorted coldly, "A successful man must do great things, what's the point of serving a woman?"

Shen Mu Qiao hurriedly swallowed the food in his mouth, "Grandmother, your words are too one-sided. You see, my husband is both capable and handsome, and he even dotes on me. This is not contradictory at all."

Shen Mu Qiao said, she opened her mouth and swallowed the beef, her face full of smiles, Lu Ting You had always only had Shen Mu Qiao in her eyes, whatever she said, she would do it, and at the moment, she had nothing to say.
