Chapter 480: Chapter 479 I Like You (3)
The entire private room was quiet as a grave, with the exception of Wei Jingjing and Little Tang, even Song Fengzhi and Bo Yan’s driver dared not utter a word.
Although Bo Yan poured and drank his own wine leisurely, seemingly at ease, and Qin Baizhou casually chatted with Xia Siyu, presenting an aura of peace, everyone could sense the undercurrents about to erupt at any mont, as if soone was about to flip the table and start a brawl.
The atmosphere was tense, ready to ignite. If Shang Feifei or Xia Sicai, those Tai Chi masters adept at subtle influence, were there, they might have been able to smooth over the situation. If Li Yiru was present, she would have humbled herself to soothe everyone.
In fact, Xia Siyu really held her own.
Not only did she hold her own, she did it with ease, showing no signs of avoidance. Now and then she’d ask Qin Baizhou to pass the dishes, then Bo Yan for a tissue.
It was precisely Xia Siyu who seed completely oblivious to the tension, truly thinking that Bo Yan was quite nice, very quiet, and kept his hands to himself. Qin Baizhou was also good to her; despite witnessing her close interactions with Bo Yan, he didn’t rebuke her, even sharing jokes with her instead.
After observing for a while, Wei Jingjing was exasperated. Xia Siyu’s straightforward nature… sotis it was hard to tell if it was a good or bad thing. She seed genuinely unaware of the brewing troubles. When the last dish was served, she even said, “I want this lamb! It’s got a milky scent, isn’t gay, and slls delicious.”
Qin Baizhou smiled faintly and advised her, “While lamb is good, it can easily cause heatiness. Plus, this type of rich milky-flavored lamb is actually high in fat, which can lead to weight gain. It’s better to eat it with fish, shrimp, and white radish—it’s low in calories and healthy for the body.”
Xia Siyu ate with her cheeks puffed out, frowning slightly.
Xia Siyu loved to eat, but she also gained weight easily. Eating a bit extra usually ant she had to run on the treadmill for two hours sweating buckets. But what did it matter if she ate a little more now? She was about to stay in a village where she wouldn’t even have the chance.
Bo Yan, knowing her preferences, silently picked up the cumin lamb that had just been served and hadn’t been touched by anyone else and placed it in her bowl using his own chopsticks.
Xia Siyu had grown up in a Western household, accustod to separate dining. That habit continued after she entered the company. Of course, as a celebrity, she had her own chef and specialized als, which didn’t generally require sharing with others. However, Qin Baizhou knew that she was slightly averse to others picking food for her. Even if soone did so at a dining event, she wouldn’t eat it.
But at this very mont, when Bo Yan picked food for her, she didn’t think twice and stuffed it directly into her mouth. Finding it tasty, she helped herself to several more pieces.
She certainly minded other people’s saliva, but Bo Yan was different—they had kissed countless tis after all. Moreover, while living together in Qingcheng Apartnt, Bo Yan often cooked food for her, and sotis she’d even snatch food from his mouth.
Qin Baizhou narrowed his eyes.
It was well-known that Xia Siyu had poor sleeping habits. Her eating manners, though instructed by her mother, were decent, but due to being a little careless, her face would often end up sared with sauce.
Now, while eating hot pot, sauce unfortunately sared above her mouth.
Qin Baizhou reminded her, “Siyu.”
He pointed to the spot on Xia Siyu’s cheek.
Lifting her head from the bowl, Xia Siyu looked confused, utterly oblivious to what Qin Baizhou was referring to.
Qin Baizhou pointed at the sa location on his own face, “Here.”
“What?”
Still puzzled, Xia Siyu was at an impasse when suddenly, soone reached over from the side and gently wiped the sauce from the corner of her mouth.
