Chapter 43: Chapter 43: Bewitched by Zhi Zhi

Huo Jincheng suddenly felt a bit sour; his little girl doesn’t seem to think he, her fiancé, is all that great.

Completely doesn’t take it to heart.

"The food is here, eat it while it’s hot!" Huo Jincheng didn’t dwell on it; some things can’t be rushed.

He picked up a hairy crab, peeled it, and placed it on Lu Xingzhi’s plate.

Lu Xingzhi didn’t hold back and happily ate it.

Then Huo Jincheng peeled two more, and Lu Xingzhi ate them again.

When it came to the fourth one, Huo Jincheng didn’t peel it for her. Seeing her puzzled look, he said, "Hairy crabs are cold-natured, eating too many isn’t good."

When Qin Shihuai came in, he saw Huo Jincheng peeling crayfish for Lu Xingzhi, one peeled, one eaten.

He simply couldn’t bear to watch; at this rate, once they’re married, Huo Jincheng will definitely be a wife slave.

She hasn’t even taken a fancy to him yet, and he’s already so attentive.

"Jin Chen, your service is pretty good!" Qin Shihuai teased.

Huo Jincheng raised his eyes lazily, "You got a problem?"

"No, not at all." Qin Shihuai placed a bottle of plum wine on the table, "Homemade plum wine, quite suitable for women to drink. Let your fiancée taste it. I normally wouldn’t bring this out for just anyone."

"Can I drink it?" Lu Xingzhi, who hadn’t had alcohol before, looked at Huo Jincheng with hopeful eyes.

Huo Jincheng curved his lips slightly, "If you want to drink, drink it. This wine is sweet, a little won’t hurt."

After saying that, he directly opened the wine bottle and poured Lu Xingzhi a glass.

Lu Xingzhi picked it up and tasted it, "It’s delicious, sweet and sour with just a slight bit of bitterness. Better than juice."

Soon, Lu Xingzhi finished the glass.

She held up her glass to Huo Jincheng, "Uncle, I want another glass."

"This wine is sweet, but it does have alcohol in it. You should drink less so you don’t end up drunk." Huo Jincheng was worried; since Lu Xingzhi hadn’t had alcohol before, maybe she shouldn’t drink it.

"Just a little more, please." Lu Xingzhi’s voice was soft, sweet, and slightly timid in her plea.

Her features were originally radiant, her eyes held emotion, but the mole at the corner of her eye added a touch of pitiable charm.

Looking at you like this, all pitiful, even the hardest of hearts wouldn’t outright say no.

Huo Jincheng was enchanted, feeling like he was some kind of villain.

Turning his head, he saw Qin Shihuai’s gaze fixed on Lu Xingzhi, with a hint of infatuation.

Not only that, he heard him say, "Jin Chen, why don’t you let Little Zhi Liao have a bit more? I’ll give you two more bottles to take home when you leave."

"You really are generous! Usually stingy about this, but today you’re offering to let me take some home." Huo Jincheng said sarcastically.

Seeing Lu Xingzhi’s eyes light up at the news she could take home two bottles, and then looking at Qin Shihuai, he felt increasingly annoyed.

"Are you planning to join us for dinner?"

Qin Shihuai finally got it; Huo Jincheng was trying to get rid of him — having a romantic interest means neglecting friends.

He thought back to when he had a girlfriend and never ignored his buddy!

"I won’t join you for dinner then. Little Zhi Liao, enjoy your meal. Later, I’ll have someone pack up two bottles of wine for you."

"Are you that familiar with us? Calling her ’Little Zhi Liao’." At this moment, everything about Qin Shihuai was annoying to Huo Jincheng.

"Fine, fine, I’m leaving."
