Chapter 313: Coincidental Meeting in the Kitchen
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lin Piaopiao stayed in the living room all day.
Occasionally, she would see Feng Yue standing in the courtyard. However, because she was too focused on her staring, she angered Feng Yue and was mocked by her.
She also listened to music occasionally, but was shunned because she got in the way of the servants.
She endured all these.
In order to achieve her final goal, she was willing to bear all these ill intentions.
Lin Piaopiao was deeply moved by herself. As she watched the servants busying about to prepare for dinner, she carried the cup of water to the kitchen once again.
Because of his health, Old Master Li had to eat tonics and medicinal cuisine every night. Lin Liguo specifically told her which type it was.
What she did not know was that Li Nanchen and Wu Mei were injured, so the servants had also prepared tonic soup for them.
Lin Piaopiao looked at the three pots that were steaming hot at the same time, and her head started buzzing in pain. She was at a loss.
Which pot is it?
“What are you doing?” Wu Mei’s voice came from behind.
Lin Piaopiao was so frightened that her hands trembled. She grabbed the cup in her hand tightly, but the other thing that she had hidden in her palm fell to the ground.
She quickly turned around and looked at Wu Mei through gritted teeth. “Did you scare me on purpose?”
“This is the kitchen. It’s not suitable for you to be here.” Wu Mei’s gaze landed on Lin Piaopiao’s hand. There was only a cup of water.
Lin Piaopiao frowned and grunted, “I want to get water.”
Wu Mei crossed her arms and watched as Lin Piaopiao walked to the kettle. She poured a cup of water and drank it slowly.
She began to admire Lin Piaopiao.
Lin Piaopiao had suffered several blows, and even after being imprisoned by Li Nanchen, she was able to pull herself together in a short period of time.
Her willpower was strong.
“Young Madam, this is Madam Wu’s medicine.” The servant brought a bowl of soup to Wu Mei and apologized to her.
The servants at home were preparing dinner, and there was no one to deliver the medicine to Mother Wu.
Wu Mei wasn’t going to get angry over something like this. She assured the servants, “This isn’t a big deal. I can get it myself. You guys can do your thing.”
While she was carrying the medicine, Lin Piaopiao had already walked past her and returned to the living room.
When Wu Mei came back today, she had already heard that Lin Piaopiao was no longer hiding in her room. Instead, she appeared in the living room and even exchanged a few words with Feng Yue.
Not noticing anything strange about Lin Piaopiao’s behavior, she headed upstairs with the medicine.
Mother Wu was already waiting for her in the room.
When Wu Mei placed the bowl on the table, Mother Wu immediately held her hand and blew on it gently. “Your hand is red from the heat.”
“Mom, I’m not that delicate.” Wu Mei didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
She pulled Mother Wu to sit at the table and persuaded her softly, “Hurry and drink while it’s hot. I’ll keep you company.”
Mother Wu picked up the slightly bitter medicine and drank it slowly. She also talked about how she wanted to go home.
She could not stay in the Li family forever, but she hoped that Wu Mei would stay.
Wu Mei smiled helplessly. “Mom, rest for a few days first. We’ll talk about this later.”
Mother Wu held Wu Mei’s hand. “I don’t care what you young people think. I just hope that you can be taken care of. Nanchen is great. He can take care of you.”
Wu Mei couldn’t refute. She blushed and tried to change the topic.
Her mother was very concerned about her relationship with Li Nanchen.
Wu Mei also started to hesitate.?Should she and Li Nanchen…
No way!
Her matter had yet to come to an end. Now was not the time.
Mother Wu saw that Wu Mei was starting to get distracted. She placed the empty bowl on the table unhappily and reminded Wu Mei, “You must hold on to such a good man, understand?”
Wu Mei nodded her head vigorously and quickly coaxed Mother Wu, “Don’t worry, Mama. I’ll remember what you said.”
As they were chatting, they heard a knock on the door.
Li Nanchen was back.
Li Nanchen greeted Mother Wu. “Auntie, I’m back. I’ll call you when dinner is ready.”
How could Mother Wu not understand Li Nanchen’s intentions??She pretended to be miserable and said, “I just drank some medicine but now I have to eat again.”
She pushed Wu Mei away and said, “Hurry up and leave. Let me have some time to myself.”
Wu Mei was forced to leave the room. When she closed the door, she raised her hand and was about to hit Li Nanchen.
Li Nanchen was faster than her. He pinned her hands behind her back and pressed them against the wall, kissing her forcefully.
They had not seen each other for a day.
They missed each other a lot.
Wu Mei felt a change in a certain part of Li Nanchen. Her face turned red and she hurriedly avoided Li Nanchen’s kiss.
How could Li Nanchen let go of her? He hugged her tighter and tighter until Wu Mei gently bit him.
He moved away slightly and complained pitifully, “How could you bear to bite me?”
Wu Mei pulled out her hands and looked around. She lightly tapped Li Nanchen’s chest and said in a low voice, “My skin isn’t as thick as yours. What if the elders see us?”
Li Nanchen held her wrist graciously and replied smugly, “They hope we can be intimate every day. Can’t you tell?”
He’s doing this again?
Wu Mei was afraid that Li Nanchen’s wounds would be reopened, so she did not dare to dodge too harshly. In the end, Li Nanchen still succeeded.
They kissed in the hallway for a long time, until the butler came upstairs to remind them to eat. After which, they parted awkwardly.
Wu Mei angrily punched Li Nanchen’s shoulder and returned to her room to change.
