In the dining room, Li Yan and Su Chen sat on one side while Qiao Mu and Chi Xia sat on the other.
When the food was served, Qiao Mu and Chi Xia started eating. They had been busy the entire morning and were both tired and hungry.
Li Yan looked at the little thing’s poor eating habits and frowned slightly. He reminded her, “‘Eat slowly. No one is snatching it from you.”
Qiao Mu nodded and focused on the grilled prawns in her hands. The dried skin of the grilled prawns stuck to the meat and was very difficult to peel off. She found it strenuous, so she directly put the prawns into her mouth and spat out the skin as she ate.
“This prawn is too grilled. It’s so hard to eat.”
Chi Xia was helpless. ” I think you’re just tired of peeling the skin. Do you want me to peel the skin and feed it to you? ”
Qiao Mu pursed her lips. ” If you were so considerate to me, I would be scared to death. ”
Qiao Mu was eating when she saw Li Yan taking a grilled prawn and peeling it patiently. The man’s fingers were slender and his movements were unhurried. The prawn that was particularly difficult to peel was peeled cleanly in his hands in just a few strokes.
Qiao Mu stared at the prawn meat for a while before burying her head in her food.
When Li Yan saw Qiao Mu’s eager gaze, a smile flashed across his eyes. He placed the prawn meat on her plate. ” You can eat it. ”
Qiao Mu was instantly overwhelmed by the favor!
When had Li Yan ever served her so well? Alright, although he was sometimes very considerate, the number of times he served her like this was very few!
“Uncle, why aren’t you eating?” she asked uncertainly.
Li Yan continued to peel another prawn as if nothing had happened. His voice was calm as he said, ” This prawn isn’t fresh. It’s for you.
Qiao Mu was speechless.
She knew that this man was not that kind.
However, there were palm-sized prawns. They were clearly fresh and delicious, and the color was also good. How was it not fresh?
Qiao Mu didn’t care so much. She took the prawn meat and put it into her mouth, eating it to her heart’s content.
Immediately after, Li Yan peeled another prawn and handed it over. ” This isn’t fresh either. ‘
Su Chen looked at Li Yan’s cold and aloof expression and smiled faintly. ” Big Brother, since the prawns are not fresh, should we call the manager to change the plate? ‘
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yan’s cold gaze swept over. Su Chen smiled and shut his mouth. He was nice to Su Chen, yet he was beating around the bush. How could Su Chen remember his kindness?
Everyone else had clearly seen through it, but Young Master Li was thick-skinned and did not feel embarrassed at all.
Chi Xia could naturally tell what Li Yan was thinking, so she smiled and said,
“”Young Master Li, you’re so considerate to our Mumu.”
Our Mumu?
Li Yan’s eyes turned cold when he heard her address him. He glanced at Chi Xia and asked, ” What’s your surname? ”
Chi Xia noticed the change in Li Yan’s expression. She did not know what she had said wrong. Just as she was reflecting on her actions, Li Yan asked for her surname.
His surname is Chi, ” Chi Xia answered honestly. ” Chi Xia, isn’t Young Master Li’s memory too bad? ”
Li Yan raised his eyebrows. ” Since your surname is Chi, how did Qiao Mu become your family’s daughter? ”
Chi Xia was speechless.
So this was what Young Master Li cared about!
‘ Qiao Mu isn’t from my family. She’s from your family, Young Master Li! ” Chi Xia immediately corrected herself with a smile.
Li Yan’s expression softened after he was done with the flattery, showing that he was satisfied.
Chi Xia raised her head and her eyes accidentally met the man opposite her.
* Cough *
The way this man looked at her really made her uncomfortable!
When he was speaking earlier, he was still smiling and looked like he was bathing in the spring breeze. However, when he turned around and saw her, his face immediately turned into one of disgust..
