Prosecutor vs. Minister: A Battle of Wits Chapter 144

Jiang Jingsi moved her little legs and ran to Jiang Tong’s side, wrapping her arm around her elbow.

"Senior, senior, senior, I want to join you for dinner too!"

Calling out ’senior’ three times in a row instantly revealed her fangirl nature.

Of course.

It still feels better being with the senior.

Being with her so-called sister-in-law, there’s always a weird atmosphere.

From a perspective where no one could see, Shen Anru’s expression was indeed somewhat stiff.

After all, who would feel happy being disliked by a future sister-in-law?

But she deserved it.

Looking at the couple in front, glued tightly together, Gu Qize had a deep, unending smile in his eyes.

"Third Brother, you’ve come over."

He called only Jiang Huai Bei, directly ignoring Shen Anru.

Sure enough, Shen Anru’s already stiff face turned even gloomier.

Afterwards, what made her the most angry was that after ignoring her, Gu Qize cheerfully turned around and walked towards Jiang Tong.

"Little Tongtong, let’s go, I know you like the crabs at Sea River Banquet, so I’ve specifically ordered a lot for you."

Jiang Tong returned a smile to him and intertwined fingers with Bao Nan, "Then let’s go."

The group walked ahead, chatting and laughing, leaving Jiang Huai Bei and Shen Anru behind.

Jiang Huai Bei felt it was nothing, as he naturally wasn’t very talkative.

But Shen Anru’s heart was twisted with jealousy.

She stared viciously at Jiang Tong’s back, her fingernails digging into her palm.

Just wait...

It’s not far from Jiang Tong’s downfall...

By then, she’d see how Jiang Tong would kneel down and beg her!

...

Sea River Banquet.

Everyone entered the private room that Gu Qize had booked, the dishes had been served out a minute before they arrived.

They sat according to their favorite spots, elegantly arranging their utensils.

Only Shen Anru, among them, moved stiffly and awkwardly.

She gritted her teeth, looking at Jiang Tong who was sitting across from her.

Jiang Tong, upon entering, had directly sat down, and just as she was about to reach out, Bao Nan snatched the bowl and chopsticks from her, leaving only a spoon before her.

Jiang Tong suddenly found it both funny and exasperating; is Bao Nan treating her like a child?

Lately, his actions have indeed confirmed it all.

Such as her favorite crabs.

Only to see Bao Nan reach out, picking the largest one for her, fiddling with the crab’s claws, carefully extracting the liver and meat and putting them into a bowl.

"Hurry up and eat." He reached out and placed the bowl in front of her, speaking gently.

Afterwards, he picked a few shrimps, helping her peel the shells.

The noble and cold man was charming even in his shrimp-peeling and crab-opening movements.

Gu Qize covered his chest, howling aloud, "You two, stop bullying us single dogs!"

Dammit!

Had he known, he wouldn’t have agreed to dine with these two, it’s just asking for self-torture!

Jiang Jingsi and Si Yuan Yang buried their heads in their meals, apparently unable to bear watching.

Shen Anru was so jealous she nearly snapped the chopsticks in her hand, looking at Jiang Huai Bei with longing eyes.

Jiang Huai Bei, not realizing it, asked puzzled, "What’s wrong?"

With one sentence, the whole table turned to look at them.

Shen Anru became pale from the attention.

You can’t blame Jiang Huai Bei; raised in luxury, he was used to having everything done for him.

Even for crab-opening and shrimp-peeling, someone else always did it.

So he truly couldn’t understand Shen Anru’s longing gaze.
