A spacious dining room with a rectangular table.
Lou Zhaonian sits at the head, the Xing Chen family on the left, and the Lou family on the right.
Tonight’s dinner was prepared by Lou Xining, who specifically asked Xiahou Xiu Yun about her preferences out of respect for the Wilson family.
Xiahou Xiu Yun mentioned she liked Lansi Country cuisine, so tonight’s dinner was a grand Lansi Country feast!
A table filled with knives, forks, various napkins, and wine glasses made Lou Xinyu’s eyes blur.
She coughed slightly and leaned towards Lou Xining, "Brother! What are you doing? Why are we having Lansi Country cuisine? I don’t know the etiquette for eating Lansi Country food at all!"
Lou Xinyu was raised by Lou Zhaonian, who never worshipped foreign customs and always ate traditional Xuan Country food. He could casually use knives and forks, but when it came to real etiquette...
She was completely clueless!
Lou Xining had no idea she was this clueless, "How would I know? Ah Chen’s mother said she liked Lansi Country cuisine. Do you think I’d prepare braised pork for her?"
Lou Xinyu bit her lower lip, thinking that Ran Xiangsi on the opposite side must use knives and forks just as awkwardly!
She’d definitely embarrass herself!
With the intent to watch the show, she looked across and saw...
Ran Xiangsi casually eating a few bites of the escargot appetizer.
When it came to the soup, her fair hand held the soup spoon, tilted it slightly, and sipped quietly without making any noise!
Then came the bread, Ran Xiangsi tore off bread in bite-sized pieces with her hand and put it into her mouth.
The entire process was extremely graceful...
Lou Xinyu felt perplexed watching her. How could she possibly have eaten Lansi Country cuisine before? And why did it seem so familiar?
The most crucial moment came when Lou Xinyu, not knowing the etiquette of eating bread, used a fork to stab at the bread, ready to bring it to her mouth, only to hear Xiahou Xiu Yun’s astonished words.
"Xinyu, how can you use a fork to eat bread? Put it down! You need to hold it ..."
Xiahou Xiu Yun, who had disguised herself as an old lady that day and went to the villa, coincidentally saw Lou Xinyu.
Lou Xinyu’s attitude towards her at that time left an unforgettable impression on Xiahou Xiu Yun...
Adding to that, Xiahou Xiu Yun now felt woman was opposing her daughter-in-law. So as a mother-in-law, she couldn’t resist teaching her a lesson.
Lou Xinyu froze in place at Xiahou Xiu Yun’s words. Everyone at the table raised their eyes to look at her, full of mockery.
People had long noticed Lou Xinyu’s embarrassing behavior, but owing to her status as a lady, no one spoke up.
Now that Xiahou Xiu Yun spoke up, it was a great relief to all!
Lou Xinyu quickly put down the fork and picked up the bread with her hand, her face somewhat pale...
Everyone held back their laughter.
Except for Ran Xiangsi, who merely glanced at Lou Xinyu lightly, still pondering where Xing Chen had taken Lou Xinyu just now.
Why did Lou Xinyu’s face look so flushed when she came in?
The more she thought about it, the more upset Ran Xiangsi felt.
She really was losing her composure. They had only gone out for a while! Why did she feel so uncomfortable?
Sitting beside Ran Xiangsi, Xing Chen seemed to sense her emotional turbulence. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ NovᴇlFir(e).nᴇt
But he still hadn’t figured out the reason, silently admiring her graceful dining posture, a pleasure as if it were a form of enjoyment.
