Chapter 318 The Sour Smell in the Air
Ji Zihang's eyes were dark. He stood aside indifferently, watching Ji Yuntang eating with a satisfied look on his face, and cursed in a low voice.
"A mouse has skin, but a man has no manners!"
"Some people, even if they become princesses, cannot change their inner worldliness."
Unexpectedly, just after he finished speaking, his stomach growled twice.
"Cuckoo~"
The voice was so loud that Ji Zihang's face instantly turned red with embarrassment.
Xie Liuzheng held a piece of grass in his mouth, stared at me, sneered, and spoke leisurely.
"Oh, you are so noble and great, but it turns out you can get hungry too!"
"Scolding my sister for not knowing propriety and morality is nothing more than saying that no one can prepare a sumptuous meal for you!"
"Want to eat? Ask your good sister to buy it for you!"
Ji Zihang: "..."
His face darkened instantly.
He glanced at Xie Liuzheng, then at Ji Qingqing, and the difference between the two was immediately apparent.
Not to mention food, he had been off the stage for so long and Ji Qingqing hadn't even poured him a cup of tea.
It would be a lie for Ji Zihang to say that he had no resentment. He didn't really want to eat, but he just felt very embarrassed.
True concern is never just words. In front of Xie Liuzheng, he, her biological brother, was compared to her and nothing was left!
Ji Yuntang gained enough face at this moment because of Xie Liuzheng's support and concern.
But what about him?
Ji Zihang began to think, what did Ji Qingqing give him?
She just wanted him to win the championship so that she could become the crowned sister and look more noble than others when she walked out.
Besides, the prince will value her more.
Everything Ji Qingqing did was for herself.
But no one has ever asked him whether studying is hard or tiring, or whether he has enough meals every day.
Ji Zihang began to reflect on whether he had really done something wrong.
Mistaking fish eyes for pearls.
If he had used all the kindness he showed to Ji Qingqing on Ji Yuntang, would he be as content as Xie Liuzheng now?
While thinking about these things, Ji Zihang turned his head and looked at Ji Yuntang for some unknown reason.
When he looked up, he happened to meet Ji Yuntang's teasing gaze.
At this moment, she was holding a pigeon wing in her hand and gnawing on it.
Seeing Ji Zihang looking at him, Ji Yuntang bit off a piece of meat from the pigeon's wing in front of him, and chewed it twice vigorously.
She sneered: "What are you looking at? I'm not your sister!"
"But if you are really hungry, I don't mind giving you two bones to try."
After Ji Yuntang finished speaking, he spat a bone at his feet.
Ji Zihang: "..."
Ji Zihang: "!!!"
He could hear the laughter of the crowd. Ji Yuntang's action was not very harmful to him, but it was extremely insulting.
The little regret he had in his heart was instantly washed away, and Ji Zihang wished he could tear Ji Yuntang to pieces right away.
This bitch, so arrogant and domineering, how can she compare with their gentle and considerate Qingqing?
The whole family of Duke Rong's Mansion fell in love with her, they are really blind!
Although he was angry, fortunately Ji Zihang still had a little rationality left in his mind. After glaring at Ji Yuntang fiercely, he turned around and left without looking back!
Ji Yuntang looked at the man's back as he left, feeling a little disappointed.
She also wanted to make Ji Zihang so angry that he lost his mind, and then watch him tear her apart in anger on the spot!
That way, she would have a legitimate reason to slap him!
Unfortunately, Ji Zihang was a scholar and had received a higher education.
He did not act as impulsively as Ji Qingfeng and Ji Huaiche. Instead, he suppressed his anger and was willing to be the coward.
Provoking someone doesn't work very well on him.
Ji Yuntang sighed and looked down at his own hands that were as white as jade.
These hands once slapped Ji Huaiche and Ji Qingfeng.
She always felt like something was missing because she didn't slap Ji Zihang.
Ji Zihang didn't know yet that the reason Ji Yuntang irritated him was because he wanted to slap him in the face.
He walked a long way in one breath. Even though he could no longer see Ji Yuntang, he could still hear the woman's soft and pleasant voice in his ears.
"Brother, this red stewed pigeon is really delicious. I want to eat it again in the future."
Xie Liuzheng responded: "No problem, I'll buy it for you. You can have as much as you want. I'll ask the chefs at Shidinglou to cook it for you. I guarantee you'll have enough to eat in one go."
Ji Zihang's eyes darkened slightly, with a sinister look in them. He reached out and rubbed his brows.
After experiencing what happened today, his mentality changed and his mood became very complicated.
Before, he always thought that the Rongguo Mansion recognized Ji Yuntang as their goddaughter just out of humanitarianism and it was just talk.
Unexpectedly, they were serious and each of them was so nice to Ji Yuntang.
Ji Zihang couldn't understand why a vicious woman like her deserved to be treated so well by the whole Rongguo Mansion family?
The Rongguo Mansion insisted on picking up the grass they threw away and treating it as a treasure.
Could it be that this family was really under the spell of Ji Yuntang?
At the same time, in the private room on the second floor of the teahouse.
Luo Junhe witnessed the whole incident.
He raised his eyelashes, his dark and deep eyes were filled with gloom, reflecting indescribable emotions.
Chen Hu felt that suddenly, the whole room became cold, like a harsh winter.
Just as he was hugging his arms to keep warm, he heard Luo Junhe's low, magnetic voice, which was faintly filled with anger.
"Chen Hu, pass the order down. Tonight's dinner at the Night Palace will be a pigeon feast."
Chen Hu was stunned and asked, "Ah, why does the prince suddenly want to eat pigeons?"
Luo Junhe narrowed his black eyes and squeezed out four words from between his teeth.
"The princess loves to eat."
After he finished speaking, he took out a silver note worth one hundred taels and handed it to Chen Hu.
"Have someone take all the banknotes and buy pigeons. Princess, you've worked hard in the competition today. I'm going to give you a good treat tonight."
Chen Hu: "..."
His eyes widened, and at this moment a terrible idea suddenly popped up in his mind.
If I were to buy all the pigeons with a hundred taels of silver, how long would it take them to eat?
Will the princess be given too much nutrition, become fat and ugly, and then the prince will no longer want her?
Chen Hu glanced at Luo Junhe angrily. He inexplicably felt that Luo Junhe looked like he was angry!
But he didn't dare to ask, nor did he dare to say anything. He could only resign himself to taking the banknote and ordering someone to buy the pigeon.
In the stands, Xie Liuzheng suddenly shuddered. He frowned and sniffed, and smelled a strange odor.
He asked Ji Yuntang, "Sister, do you smell a sour smell in the air?"
Ji Yuntang looked at him in surprise, "No, how can it taste sour?"
Xie Liuzheng sniffed twice more and said with certainty: "No, it smells sour. I can't be wrong."
