Chapter 801 - Afraid of Acid
Stop Messing Around, Mr Bo!
Old Lady Bo glared at her and said, âPeople nowadays are really cunning and black-hearted! When we bought things back then, they specially chose the best for the customers. They were too embarrassed to sell the inferior ones. Now⦠this is outrageous!â
Shen Fanxing didnât deny it and said calmly,
âThose people wonât be able to achieve anything big. They wonât be able to go far because theyâre greedy for small benefits. Theyâll fall somewhere.â
âLook, as expected of a female CEO. You sound so old.â
Lady Bo pointed at Shen Fanxing.
Shen Fanxing pursed her lips.
When did she become old?
âLunch is coming soon. Here, have a hazelnut to whet your appetite.â
Recalling the sour looks on their faces, Shen Fanxing swallowed her saliva and shook her head firmly to reject Old Lady Boâs good intentions.
âI have a good appetite. I donât need it to whet my appetite.â Afraid that the old lady would say something else, she quickly turned to Butler Lai Rong and said, âAunt Lai Rong, prepare two bowls of rice for me later.â
âNo problem.â
Old Lady Bo didnât insist and the few of them returned to the villa.
Even though Shen Fanxing had instructed them not to prepare too many dishes, there was still a huge table of dishes.
Shen Fanxing had different tastes. Previously, when she came to eat, she didnât know what she liked to eat, so there were many styles today. However, not long after she ate, Lady Bo, who had been staring at her for a long time, couldnât help but speak up.
âFanxingâ¦â âYes?â
Shen Fanxing didnât expect Old Lady Bo to suddenly speak. Upon hearing her, she looked at her.
Old Lady Bo smiled at her and said, âYour taste seems to have changed a lot recently.â
Shen Fanxing lowered her gaze and watched as the servant adjusted the greasy dishes beside her.
Then, she blushed and said, âHe⦠has a light taste. Iâm used to itâ¦â
Old Lady Bo smiled and said, âNo wonder.â
Shen Fanxing smiled and picked up some vegetables to eat. After lunch, the old lady was used to taking an afternoon nap. Shen Fanxing had planned to go to the company and come over with Sang Yu and Wanwan at night. However, when she and the old lady were eating fruits in the living room, Yu Song came.
âOld Madam, Miss Fanxingâ¦â
Shen Fanxing was surprised to see Yu Song and asked, âSecretary Yu, why are you here?â
Yu Song scratched his head with a conflicted expression, as if he wanted to say something.
Seeing how uncomfortable he was, Old Lady Bo threw a dumpling to Yu Song.
âThereâs no hurry. Letâs eat a dumpling first.â
Shen Fanxingâs eyelids twitched and she looked up at the old lady. In the end, the old lady blinked.
Lai Rong pursed her lips and smiled helplessly.
Yu Song was flattered and hurriedly thanked her. âThank you, Old Madam.â
The old lady waved her hand and said, âEat first.â
Shen Fanxing watched as Yu Song lowered his head and peeled the dumplings. The man was too rough when he peeled the dumplings. He split them in half from the middle. He didnât have the patience to eat them one by one. He broke a few in one go and threw them into his mouth.
Shen Fanxing didnât like sour food, especially the sourness of fruits like lemon and orange.
Hence, when the old lady asked her to eat, she instinctively rejected her.
Now, looking at Yu Song, this rough man ate a quarter of a dumpling. How bad would that be?
When she saw Yu Songâs eyebrows twitching the moment he bit the dumpling, Shen Fanxing couldnât help but smile.
It was such a childish trick, but she could always hit the nail on the head.
Needless to say, the old lady was overjoyed when she succeeded again.
Without even chewing, Yu Song swallowed the dumpling in his mouth.
Looking at the remaining three-quarters of the dumplings in his hand, Yu Song gulped and grabbed them.
âOld Lady, Iâm here becauseâ¦â
Shen Fanxing looked up at him. Yu Song paused and finally braced himself.
âOld Madam, do you have a photo of⦠Master?â
The old lady frowned. âWhy do you want the photo?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Yu Song glanced at Shen Fanxing and hesitated for a while before saying,
âThere are no photos of Master and Miss Fanxingâs engagement ceremonyâ¦â
Shen Fanxingâs expression stiffened.
It seemed like she had never taken a photo with Bo Jinchuanâ¦
âNo photos?â
The old lady didnât look too good. She looked at Shen Fanxing and asked, âYou havenât taken your wedding photos?â
Shen Fanxing shook her head and said, âWe⦠didnât think of taking such photosâ¦â
The old lady sighed. âYou two are really two blocks of wood. What else do you know other than work?!â
Shen Fanxing pursed her lips, unable to retort.
âWhatâs the use of just having his photo? Itâs not like the two of them are together!â Yu Song said, âIâll get someone to use the softwareâ¦â
âNonsense! How dare you!â
The old lady got angry when she heard that.
Yu Song looked at Shen Fanxing apologetically.
Shen Fanxing knew that Yu Song was in a difficult position. She thought for a while and said, âItâs just an engagement. Itâs just a formality. I think the othersâ engagement ceremonies are very simple. Some of them donât have any wedding photos. The key is the wedding. Itâs fine to take the wedding photos before the wedding. Thereâs no need to show our photos at the engagement ceremony.â The old lady frowned. âI donât understand the wedding of you young people now. But thereâs nothing I can do now. Instead of putting a fake photo, I might as well not do it!⦠But there are still some days before the engagement ceremony. Jinchuan should be able to come backâ¦â
Yu Song glanced at the old lady and pursed his lips. He wanted to say something but hesitated. Having decided not to release the photos, Yu Song saved himself the trouble.
Then, the old lady added, âBesides, I donât have a photo of Jingchuan when he grows up. Also, that brat Jinghang took a photo of them as if he had skinned them alive.â âBut I have photos of them when they were young. Fanxing, do you want to take a look?â
The old lady winked playfully at Fanxing, making Shen Fanxingâs heart itch.
Lai Rong, who was standing at the side, said helplessly, âMadam, itâs time for your lunch break! Why donât you watch it with Second Young Madam tonight? Otherwise, youâll tell them all the fun things. What are you going to tell them in the future?â
She flipped through the photo album and talked about her childhood. Todayâs afternoon nap was over.
Lai Rong coaxed the old lady and told her the truth.
âYes, yes, yes! I canât say it now. Letâs whet their appetite first! Tonight! iâll come back tonight to show you!â Shen Fanxing didnât know whether to laugh or cry.
