My Fantastic Chef Wife-Chapter 150 - Meeting Baozhu
Chapter 150: Meeting Baozhu
Liu Qianqian’s face turned a bit pink.
Ye Xiaoxian saw this so she teased her. “Ah, your face is pink. Qianqian, when you get married you must restrain yourself from doing it too much. Don’t be excessively affectionate. How does that old saying go? What are those precious things a youth does not know?”
Liu Qianqian posed as if she was going to hit Ye Xiaoxian, while Ye Xiaoxian tried to dodge her. The two girls were teasing and fighting each other for fun in the teahouse.
Xiao Baoshan looked at them quietly from across the room. As long as Ye Xiaoxian was happy, he felt happy.
When they left the teahouse, Ye Xiaoxian asked Liu Qianqian to do her a favor. She wanted Liu Qianqian to go and inquire about Xiao Baozhu and check if she was leading a good life or not with the Wongs.
Liu Qianqian nodded and said that she would go and inquire about it right away. When she got the information she would go back to inform Ye Xiaoxian. Liu Qianqian was so excited that she needed to find something to shift her attention.
Liu Qianqian and Scholar Wong were relatives so it was normal for her to pay a visit to his family occasionally. It was just that Liu Qianqian was a girl, so when she went to Scholar Wong’s home, she must greet Lord Wong and Mrs. Wong first. After some small talk she was then allowed to go and see Scholar Wong.
When she arrived at the courtyard where Scholar Wong lived she had go to see Scholar Wong and Qin Qingqing together first.
Scholar Wong and Qin Qingqing were extremely affectionate as usual, and their life together was truly sweeter than honey. Even though Qin Qingqing was present, the couple were eyeing each other up. When they talked they held hands under the table, which made Liu Qianqian feel quite nauseous.
This was the very reason that Liu Qianqian had not wished to concern herself about Xiao Baozhu much before. Scholar Wong treated Qin Qingqing very well and if she just came to him and said, “You should look after Baozhu a bit,” then, as a result, not only would Scholar Wong not want to talk with her anymore but Qin Qingqing would also hate her very much. She would end up being hated by everyone.
“Cousin Qingqing, you two are such a sweet couple,” said Liu Qianqian in admiration.
Qin Qingqing felt a bit shy. “Your cousin is taking good care of me.”
“Qingqing, I’ve got a bottle of sunscreen here for you. If you go out in future, you can apply some to protect you from getting sunburned.” Liu Qianqian smiled. “But you must use it up within a year, otherwise it will have no effect.”
“Thank you, Qianqian,” said Qin Qingqing with appreciation.
She noticed that there was another bottle in Liu Qianqian’s breast pocket. She then asked her, “Qianqian, do you also use it yourself?”
“Indeed I do. My bottle is back at home,” Liu Qianqian said on purpose. She had also deliberately shown this bottle of sunscreen to Qin Qingqing so that Qin Qingqing would start the conversation.
“Oh? So who is this bottle for?” asked Qin Qingqing confused.
“You mean this bottle? My friend asked me to take it to Xiao Baozhu. By the way, can I see Xiao Baozhu? She’s my friend’s sister and I was asked to drop in on her.”
Although Liu Qianqian did not go out a lot, she had been hanging around in the upper-class circles in town and developed a worldly-wise manner while dealing with people. She could not directly say that she wanted to see Xiao Baozhu or it would upset Qin Qingqing who may think that Liu Qianqin was here to deliberately embarrass her. Liu Qianqin could only find another excuse to see Xiao Baozhu.
If Qin Qingqing was not loved by Scholar Wong, she would have hated Liu Qianqian already. However, she was spoiled by her husband so she still did not give much consideration to Xiao Baozhu.
She even found Xiao Baozhu to be very miserable and sometimes asked Scholar Wong to go and meet Xiao Baozhu, but Scholar Wong simply did not like her. Therefore, Qin Qingqing was not alarmed by Liu Qianqian’s request. She simply said, “She’s living in a separate wing off the main house. Do you want to go there yourself or shall I ask someone to bring her over?”
“Ask someone to bring her over then.” Liu Qianqian thought that maybe Qin Qingqing said this on purpose in order to see how close she and Xiao Baozhu were.
