Chapter 395: Chapter 395: Stop Laughing, No Talking While Eating or Sleeping

"Let me go, let go of me now." Wang Xiangxiang struggled as she shouted.

However, Chu Lian acted as if he hadn’t heard and carried her all the way to the dining hall.

"Let me go, will you? I’ll eat, okay?"

Wang Xiangxiang had figured it out. Why not eat? It was all because of him that she had run around all morning. She wanted to eat her way back to even, after all, Wang Xiangxiang never did a losing deal.

Chu Lian pressed Wang Xiangxiang into a chair and said to the maid beside him, "Prepare a set of bowls and chopsticks for her."

"Yes, young master," she replied.

Soon, the bowls and chopsticks were brought in. Wang Xiangxiang started eating unapologetically, her manner of eating identical to the way she ate at Li Fugui’s—ugly and copious.

Chu Lian sat beside her, ceaselessly frowning. This woman, really... eating so much, how has she not turned into a pig.

Chu Huan, sitting nearby, grew increasingly fascinated with this formidable sister. Who exactly was this sister? It seemed their brother had no way to control her. It was her first time seeing such a situation.

Wang Xiangxiang wasn’t just eating. She observed everything in the room. Those women occasionally glancing their way seemed to be watching a scoundrel, and their faces turned red with embarrassment after looking.

She realized then, this wasn’t any Flower Appreciation Society. This was that matchmaking event the house servant had mentioned. So this scoundrel man was choosing a bride. No wonder.

Wang Xiangxiang could hardly believe that the scoundrel man could be involved in such an event. The more she thought about it, the more she wanted to laugh. He finally had his day!

"Pfft!" She couldn’t hold it in and actually laughed out loud at the table.

Her laugh made everyone turn to look at her. This woman must have some issues, they thought. She’s so aggressive just now and now sinisterly laughing.

Chu Lian was speechless by then. What kind of upbringing did this unreasonable woman have, not eating properly, laughing foolishly by herself?

"Stop laughing, don’t speak while eating or sleeping."

Looking around the table, all were ladies of good breeding, eating silently. Only this unreasonable woman, not caring at all, wasn’t satisfied with one bowl, but had two.

"..." Hearing this, Wang Xiangxiang’s laughter ceased as she continued eating. No laughter, no matter. She decided to focus on her meal first.

Finally, the meal was over, and the maid brought dessert and tea. Other women, having just finished eating, didn’t have any more, but Wang Xiangxiang, seeing the dessert and tea, continued to indulge.

By then, some people were quietly commenting, "The little shopkeeper is really unsophisticated. Look at the way she eats, as if she’s never eaten before."

"Probably, being a cloth shop shopkeeper doesn’t bring in much money. Finally having good food, of course she has to eat a lot."

"She ate so much during the meal, and now she’s still eating."

"..."

"..."

Wang Xiangxiang didn’t care about the discussions at all. To the outside world, she always posed as the shopkeeper of Xiangxiang Cloth Shop. Let them misunderstand; she only wanted to run her business well.

Chu Lian heard everything and was puzzled. Everyone spoke of her like that, yet she didn’t get angry at all.

Chu Huan, however, couldn’t stand it any longer. She had endured these people long enough, always putting on airs, never genuine, not like that formidable sister. She liked that sister’s genuine nature.

"Don’t be too much. What’s wrong with the sister eating a lot? At least she’s more genuine than you, who clearly want to eat but dare not."
