My Wife Is The Final Boss-Chapter 875 - 487: Zhu Pingniang Needs Someone to Save Her (Double - )
Since all the dishes on the table are Yun Qian’s treasures, then... wouldn’t it be uncomfortable to let other women share?
Zhu Pingniang squinted her eyes: "Hmm... Sister, don’t rush to answer me."
Let this topic ferment for a while longer.
——
?
Yun Qian seemed a bit puzzled as she glanced at her, but she was eating, chewing slowly, so she didn’t rush to respond.
Yun Qian didn’t even know how to respond; in her mind, this wasn’t a question at all—because the target of the question wasn’t directed at her.
Yun Qian knew that Zhu Pingniang essentially didn’t intend to ask her, so she naturally wouldn’t respond.
She should eat first.
The girl thought to herself.
Thus, the atmosphere that had just improved almost froze again in an instant.
Xu Chang’an: "..."
He observed Zhu Pingniang’s eyes, which seemed sly like a fox, unable to say a word.
In his impression, neighborhood disputes often involved instigation, like fabricating things out of nothing and provoking the stronger side to attack the weaker side, and what Zhu Pingniang was doing now was undoubtedly that kind of thing, like slowly pouring oil over a dying flame.
Thinking negatively, Zhu Pingniang was clearly trying to stir up Yun Qian’s feelings, guiding her to direct her anger towards Li Zhibai and the others...
’She can’t stand the good atmosphere at the banquet?’
Xu Chang’an and Miss Lu had the same thought, but Xu Chang’an soon gave a helpless smile.
He was well aware of Zhu Pingniang’s feelings for Li Zhibai, and even... now he was somewhat supportive of his teacher’s friend, so he didn’t care how Zhu Pingniang stirred things up.
After all, let’s not forget that today’s banquet belonged to Zhu Pingniang, and everyone, including Yun Qian, were just embellishments.
Let the Senior go ahead and cause a stir.
Miss Lu also soon let go.
Probably not.
She was rather helpless about her sister’s childlike ’provocation’ tactics, but seeing how much fun Zhu Pingniang was having, she could only sigh lightly.
Speaking of which.
Do others understand Yun Qian... Miss Lu didn’t know, but she knew very well that Miss Yun in front of her wouldn’t be jealous; she definitely wouldn’t get jealous over them eating the meal cooked by Young Master.
Thinking about it, since she knew, Pingniang should also know that Yun Qian wouldn’t be easily jealous?
After all, Zhu Pingniang wasn’t hesitant to be alone with Xu Chang’an; she must have understood Yun Qian’s temperament.
So...
Miss Lu’s eyes turned in a circle just like Zhu Pingniang’s, rolling around within her eye sockets.
Since Zhu Pingniang was instigating, it indicated that... there must be some women at this table who were unclear about Yun Qian’s temperament, otherwise Zhu Pingniang wouldn’t have said such a thing.
First, exclude myself, Young Master Xu, Miss Yun, and Pingniang herself, who was instigating.
Then it’s...
She glanced around at Wen Li and Li Zhibai, then locked onto the target.
Compared to the pear blossoms still eating, Li Zhibai, who seemed to be secretly observing Yun Qian, was clearly the one caught.
So it was said for this Miss Li.
Humph.
Miss Lu subtly kicked Zhu Pingniang under the table and when Zhu Pingniang looked over, she shot a reproachful look.
"Continue eating."
Facing Miss Lu’s reproach for the instigation, Zhu Pingniang gently returned a kick.
She didn’t think she was instigating; instigation is when two sides are evenly matched, or when one is about to stop, adding fuel to the fire. Isn’t it?
When the weaker side is being hit really hard, almost to death, someone helping out isn’t called instigation; it’s called acting righteously.
Zhu Pingniang believed she was acting righteously.
Yes.
Now, as long as she could find a way to get close to Li Zhibai, she would accept any means, because... in this relationship, Li Zhibai held absolute advantage. If Zhu Tongjun didn’t think of a way to save herself... she was truly on the verge of being beaten to death.
Especially when Zhu Pingniang realized that Li Zhibai clearly knew she loved her, yet still remained indifferent... the looming sense of crisis told her, if she didn’t act to save this relationship, she would forever be trapped in the role of ’sister’.
Having realized this, Zhu Pingniang was sure she couldn’t keep relying on ’hints’ and ’ambiguity’ like before; if this continued, she’d really stand no chance.
Now is the time to be blunt, to attack Zhibai directly, to see results.
The reason Zhu Pingniang was restless at the banquet. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺
Considering that there wouldn’t be many chances in the future to dine with Li Zhibai and the younger generation together, at least now she should try leaving the impression in Li Zhibai’s mind that ’even the juniors know Tong Jun likes me.’
Perhaps such an impression could subtly cause Tong Jun not to see her as a ’sister’?
Even this kind of ’mysticism’ had become a lifeline for Zhu Pingniang... don’t even mention instigating.
If there was an effective ’seductive medicine’ for Li Zhibai at this point, Zhu Pingniang would definitely use it without hesitation.
She was desperate to such an extent.
——
Seeing Yun Qian still hadn’t responded, Zhu Pingniang, who understood Yun Qian’s character, was not in a hurry; she glanced at Li Zhibai.
Speaking of which... is there really such a ’poison’ effective on Li Zhibai? It seems there actually might be?
