Chapter 217: An Odd Coincidence 7
Lu Yan did not expect to see Qi Qingyao here, as well as to be ignored by her. He felt annoyed. The first two times they met, she called him Grandpa without permission. However, now that they happened across each other outside, she did not call him that.
This woman really was ungrateful.
Lu Yan said deliberately, “Miss Qi, why do you pretend that you don’t know me?”
“Do I know you?” Qi Qingyao opened her eyes wide curiously.
“Don’t you?” Lu Yan dragged the syllables out.
Qi Qingyao shrugged. She said casually, “If you really do want to get to know me, I’ll reluctantly give you the chance to!”
“…” Lu Yan lost this round!
Heir Pei was curious after seeing Lu Yan’s actions. “Huh? Do the two of you know each other?”
Lu Yan looked at Qi Qingyao expressionlessly as he said to Heir Pei, “Back at the inn, Miss Qi entered my room without permission twice. She took off my pants in front of a crowd of people, and had planned to take hers off too, just to get even with me. It is very hard for me to forget such a shocking thing.”
“Did you let him see?” Heir Pei looked at Qi Qingyao.
Qi Qingyao dug her ear casually, as if she had forgotten about everything, and asked, “Did something like that happen? I don’t remember anything.”
Lu Yan gritted his teeth. “It seems that Miss Qi is quite forgetful.”
Qi Qingyao gave him a fake smile. “Thank you.”
Heir Pei felt like there was something between the two of them, so he said instinctively, “Yaoyao, since you’ve come over anyway, you might as well have lunch here before leaving.”
Lu Yan: ???
Heir Pei called her Yaoyao!
Were they that close to each other?
The only similarity between them was that both of them knew the Heavenly Physician Su Hexiao.
Was there a relationship between the two of them that had to be kept secret?
Si Jin was gloomy too. He only dared to call Qi Qingyao Elder Sister. Heir Pei was merely an heir. How dare he give Qi Qingyao such an affectionate nickname? He had gone overboard!
Qi Qingyao froze as well when she heard those words. Before she could correct Pei Fengtang, his eyes fell on the food container Si Jin was carrying. He asked, “What did you bring?”
“I brought you some cakes I made myself.”
Qi Qingyao opened the food container, took two small plates of cakes out, and set them on the table before Heir Pei’s chair.
She introduced, “I borrowed the inn’s kitchen and made these just for you. They’re a token of my regard.”
“Regard?” Heir Pei asked.
Qi Qingyao said, “I’ve only cooked a few times for my kids when I was really poor. After that, we stayed at an inn, just so that I wouldn’t need to cook. I didn’t know what I could give you that would show my sincerity, so I thought about it for a long time. You must have had your fill of precious and valuable treasures and antiques. I couldn’t afford something like that, anyway, but if I buy some cakes or snacks from the shops outside, they wouldn’t be better than what your cooks make for you. That’s why I made them myself. They’re quite bland, which should be to your taste. Of course, if you don’t think that they’re delicious, my sincerity will be wasted!”
Heir Pei was moved by her words.
She, a person who rarely cooked, was willing to do so for him!
And the cakes were so delicate too.
She must have tried and failed countless times before succeeding!
At that thought, Heir Pei pinched a cake between his fingers and put it into his mouth.
When Lu Yan saw it happen, he felt like he was struck by lightning.
