As Li Tingting spoke, she tried to peer over Qiao Yiyi’s cell phone.
This made Qiao Yiyi very nervous suddenly and she immediately covered her phone, saying, “No, nothing. I wasn’t looking at anything important.”
That guilty behavior successfully piqued Li Tingting’s interest.
She snorted and lunged forward, demanding, “What exactly are you looking at? Let me have a look too!”
“No, no, I can’t.” Her timid tone and mousy expression immediately agitated Li Tingting into thinking that the girl was completely hopeless.
She leaned forward and insisted, “Show me!”
Qiao Yiyi covered the cell phone with her hand and stammered, “No, no, I can’t.”
But she was growing weaker.
It seemed like she only needed to push the girl one more time for her to cave.
Li Tingting smirked and said, “Oh, you can’t be looking at porn, can you? Your secretive attitude tells me that you’re up to something.”
After saying this, she turned icy and shouted at Qiao Yiyi, “Give it to me!”
Qiao Yiyi: …
Lu Nanze, who was lying in bed, remained sleepless from excessive sleep after the operation.
Hence, he could very clearly hear the conversation between the two women.
Li Tingting was such sc*mbag, taking all the meat for herself just because she liked meat. However, it wasn’t a big deal if Qiao Yiyi only ate the vegetables.
Anyway, it was none of his business.
He continued to lie in bed as these thoughts crossed his mind, but he did not interfere in the argument the girls were having.
But what was this situation now?
Did this girl not know how to retaliate against an attack?
Lu Nanze despised her passive nature.
He thought that the sarcastic smirk he had seen had just been his imagination.
This woman was so dumb, how could she be playing tricks on him?
The corners of his lips curved up in disdain, instantly feeling that his initial intention of marrying an obedient woman still served him well.
At the very least, if he were to ask for a divorce, the girl wouldn’t dare defy him.
At this point, he heard Li Tingting hiss, unable to resist it anymore.
Lu Nanze frowned.
Even if he did not like this woman, he felt uncomfortable about his wife being criticized like this.
Annoyed, he drew in a deep breath and opened his eyes to look at the two girls impatiently.
He saw Li Tingting extending her arm and forcefully snatching Qiao Yiyi’s cell phone from her. Smirking, she lowered her head to look at the phone and said, “I, for one, am curious to see what it is you’re looking at.”
Lu Nanze frowned and, just as he opened his mouth to speak, Li Tingting’s expression suddenly changed.
Standing by the side, Qiao Yiyi explained in a barely-noticeable timid voice, “I- I was looking at information on the food’s safety. It- it’s says that some rotten meat was used to produce these meatballs. A recent batch of rotten human meat was used for meatballs, distributed throughout the country. So that meatball, being so fresh and tender, could it be—”
Before she could finish, Li Tingting could not take it anymore. She immediately covered her mouth, dashed off to the washroom and started retching.
After Qiao Yiyi did this, she quietly sat down and continued with her dinner.

But Lu Nanze saw her place the meatball in her bowl and start eating it with gusto.
As she ate, she even lifted her head up to glance at the bathroom. At that moment, her usually dazed eyes were gleaming with a sly shine.
Then she curved her lips into a smile that was really familiar, but he couldn’t put his finger on where he had seen it.
That look of hers truly made her look a little sly fox.
Lu Nanze’s irises swelled, he was shocked.
He stared at Qiao Yiyi and suddenly realized that he didn’t know much about his wife.
He narrowed his eyes and stared at her, halting what he had been about to do. He looked in her direction with curiosity and eyes narrowed, so she wouldn’t realize that he was already awake.
Qiao Yiyi would have never thought that Lu Nanze would fake being asleep.
At least one hour had passed since he had last moved.
How bored must a man be for him to fake being asleep for an hour?
At that moment, she was enjoying the delicious food on the table while looking at the bathroom.
After a while, Li Tingting returned and when Qiao Yiyi saw her, she instantly waved to her. “You’re out.”
Li Tingting: …
Li Tingting walked over and sat down. When she saw that almost all the food on the table seemed to have been finished by Qiao Yiyi, she instantly frowned and asked, “How do you still have the appetite to eat it?”
Qiao Yiyi lifted her head up in confusion. She went back to using her weak and innocent gaze. “Why wouldn’t I have the appetite?”
Li Tingting: …
Li Tingting replied, “That article just now—”
“Ah, you mean that article that said there might be human meat in the meatball? I just ate one and it tastes so fresh and delicious.”
Before she could finish speaking, Li Tingting felt disgust surge up in her again. She instantly stood up and rushed into the bathroom.
Qiao Yiyi looked at her and laughed.
Their meal just ended like that.
As Qiao Yiyi ate, she was so happy and energetic, like there wasn’t anyone around. It stunned Lu Nanze.
This person was truly like a little fox!
He remembered today, when he hadn’t been able to clean his back by himself, how Qiao Yiyi had just stood there and acted as if she saw nothing.
At first, he had wondered if the mockery that had flashed through Qiao Yiyi’s eyes was real at all, but now that he recalled it… he realized that he had been really blind.
Qiao Yiyi had quite deep thoughts and was really scheming. He had just wanted an obedient and good wife, so she had put on a show and hidden her real self. Why had she wanted to marry him?
What was her motive?
Lu Nanze was instantly cautious of her. The gaze that he used to stare at Qiao Yiyi was full of judgement and importance, something that he had never used to look at her with.
It seemed like he would have to ask the butler to do a thorough background check.
What exactly was up with her?
As Lu Nanze had these thoughts, Li Tingting finally gave up eating. After the two women cleared the dining table, Li Tingting finally sat on the sofa, drained of energy.
She pointed at Qiao Yiyi and said, “You, go pour a cup of water for me.”
Qiao Yiyi: …
At that moment, Lu Nanze suddenly gained even more interest in Qiao Yiyi.
He stared at Qiao Yiyi, wanting to know what she would do.
Qiao Yiyi twitched her lips and thought, “Seriously, does she think I’m her maid?”
