Chapter 427: 125: A not-to-be-missed drama!_1
The steak was personally fried by Li Xianxian. To be able to cook a master level crispy tender steak, she had intentionally attended a culinary course in R Country for over a month.
The red wine was personally purchased by Li Xianxian. It had been decanted previously, you could smell the fruity taste of grapes even before it reaches your throat.
It was top-notch red wine from F Country.
Mo Baichuan picked up his glass and took a small sip, “The taste is good.” It just felt a bit bitter, he didn’t recall ever having this slightly bitter feeling before drinking red wine.
Could there be something wrong with his taste buds?
Mo Baichuan took another sip and savored it carefully. This time, he didn’t get the slight bitter feeling again. Only the robust and mellow flavor that he’d missed was left.
It must have been an illusion.
Li Xianxian stole a glance at Mo Baichuan from the corner of her eye, a crafty smile hooking up at the corner of her mouth.
“Try the steak again.” Li Xianxian stood up and switched the cut steak in front of her with Mo Baichuan’s.
“No need,” Mo Baichuan held down his plate, his tone indifferent, “I can do it myself.”
“Alright.” Li Xianxian sat down without feeling awkward and started to smile.
Mo Baichuan was cutting the steak with his eyes down, his posture graceful. After all, he was a young masterborn into a wealthy family, this kind of demeanor that emanated from his bones was something ordinary people could never imitate without making a fool of themselves.
Li Xianxian simply looked at him, the deep infatuation in her eyes impossible to conceal.
Just thinking about how this excellent man would soon completely belong to her made Li Xianxian unable to contain her excitement once again.
“Baichuan,” Li Xianxian took a sip of red wine and asked hesitantly: “Have you told your parents about… us?”
“What are you referring to?” Mo Baichuan bit into the steak, savoring it carefully.
From Mo Baichuan’s reaction, Li Xianxian could tell that he didn’t really care about this matter.
A feeling of unwillingness flashed in Li Xianxian’s eyes.
Just what was she in Mo Baichuan’s heart?
In order to reach his heart, to stand beside him, she had transformed from a naive country girl who knew nothing into someone who could please the sophisticated ladies of Beijing.
No one knew how much effort she had put into this!
And what about Mo Baichuan?
Mo Baichuan didn’t even bother to inform his parents about this important matter!
The more Li Xianxian thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. Her heart was filled with an indescribable sadness, yet she managed to conceal it well, feigning shyness as she said: “I mean… our relationship.”
At first, Mo Baichuan was a bit taken aback, then he said: “When the time is right, I will naturally tell them.”
Li Xianxian nodded, then said hesitantly: “Baichuan, I feel like your parents…don’t really like me.”
While cutting the steak, Mo Baichuan said: “My parents are very easy-going, you’re overthinking.”
Li Xianxian didn’t respond. She just poured another glass of wine for Mo Baichuan.
Meanwhile, at the Zheng Family’s residence.
The assistant was reporting Li Xianxian’s whereabouts in the past few days to Zheng Xianjing.
“About a week ago, Li Xianxian ran around ten pharmacies, all just to buy a specific secret potion.”
“What kind of secret potion?” Zheng Xianjing looked up at the assistant.
The assistant’s eyes flickered, he leaned in and whispered in Zheng Xianjing’s ear.
Upon hearing this, Zheng Xianjing was shocked: “Really?”
The assistant nodded, “After Li Xianxian left the pharmacy, I had someone purchase an identical potion from the pharmacy. Here it is.” The assistant took out a small green bottle from his pocket.
Written on the bottle were the words ‘Spring Breeze Palace’.
“You’re sure it’s that potion?” Zheng Xianjing squinted her eyes.
This Li Xianxian really had wild ambitions, to think she dared to buy even this kind of potion.
Fortunately, she was prepared and had someone following Li Xianxian.
“Yes,” the assistant nodded, “I have already had a doctor authenticate it.”
“What is Li Xianxian doing now?” Zheng Xianjing asked next.
The assistant continued: “Tonight, Li Xianxian invited Mr. Mo for a dinner.”
“What?!” Zheng Xianjing abruptly stood up from her chair, “How could you tell something so important only now?! You incompetent!”
She bought that kind of potion in one breath, and invited Mo Baichuan for dinner in the other, even a fool would know Li Xianxian was up to no good!
She was utterly shameless!
Enraged, Zheng Xianjing stormed out, fearing that every second wasted, Li Xianxian and Mo Baichuan would become a fait accompli.
After a few steps, Zheng Xianjing broke her stride, “Where are they having dinner?”
The assistant responded, “At Li Xianxian’s residence.”
The moment the assistant’s words echoed, Zheng Xianjing had already disappeared from sight.
