Love You Till the End-Chapter 1027 - 1026: Sorry, I Sent It to the Wrong Person
During the dinner, Shi Aoju spoke very little, it was mostly Quan Xin talking about her experiences abroad, while the other two who would usually liven up the atmosphere remained as silent as fossils.
Su Jiuyi, standing straight with a plate in her hands in the dining room, couldn’t help but comment on how long the dinner was taking—her hands and feet were extremely sore, as if she might drop the plate at any moment.
Shi Aoju also noticed her reaction; in fact, Quan Xin hadn’t eaten much, and Qin Shaobai and Song Zhike had almost finished their meals too, but it was inconvenient to interrupt Quan Xin’s conversation.
At this moment, Shi Quan accidentally knocked a fork off the table with her wrist, subconsciously glanced at the floor, and then said:
"Give me another fork."
Just as she spoke, Su Jiuyi could no longer hold on, and the plate slipped from her hands, with all the utensils inside scattering onto the floor.
"Oh, sorry."
Su Jiuyi quickly crouched down to pick them up, thinking to herself that she shouldn’t have come in, as she’d surely be scolded by the housekeeper for making such a mess.
Quan Xin’s voice came from nearby, with a tinge of anger: "Did you do that on purpose?"
It’s over.
At that moment, Su Jiuyi realized she didn’t have even the basic etiquette of a maid.
Being a maid is a tough job where you have to nod and bow to people. Ever since she came to work at the Shi Family, Shi Aoju hadn’t made any unreasonable demands of her. The most was the housekeeper scolding her a few times when she made mistakes, but never too harshly.
Her eyes glanced at the housekeeper next to her, who waved a hand to the side, indicating for her to quickly go to the kitchen to get a new one.
Su Jiuyi didn’t have time to think, she retreated to the side and then stood up, holding the plate and slipping out.
"Hey!" Quan Xin’s shout came from behind.
The housekeeper saw Quan Xin’s beautiful brows knit together, worried that she might get angry and kick Su Jiuyi out of the Shi Family, so he hurried over to plead, "She’s new and doesn’t understand the rules, it’s my fault for not teaching her well, Lady Quan, please don’t be angry."
Shi Aoju said coldly, "Can’t you leave a good impression on others?"
Quan Xin snorted, lowered her head, picked up a spoon, and stirred the clear soup in her bowl without speaking.
At this time, Shi Aoju’s phone vibrated in his pocket. He swiped the screen to see a message from Su Jiuyi.
—This young lady is actually fiercer than the housekeeper.
Su Jiuyi sent a message to Shi Aoju in the corridor, and immediately regretted it after sending it.
She forgot how close the two of them were, and by openly criticizing his friend, wasn’t she insulting him? Moreover, he certainly wouldn’t side with her.
She quickly typed another message: Sorry, I sent it to the wrong person.
Just as she was about to send it, she received a reply from Shi Aoju.
—She’s always like that, you just come back without worry.
Receiving this message, Su Jiuyi felt as if she saw a "protection order" glowing brightly in front of her.
This farce thus ended, and after Qin Shaobai and Song Zhike left that night, Su Jiuyi wandered into the small courtyard as usual.
She knew Quan Xin was definitely not someone easy to deal with, and just now, before Song Zhike left, he even told her to be wary of this person.
However, Su Jiuyi really couldn’t understand; clearly, they and Quan Xin had all grown up together as good friends, so why were they all siding with her now that an outsider had arrived?
