Chapter 624: Chapter 624: You Won’t Know Until You Try
Wen Wan took the bag from Zhao Qinya’s hand, smiled, and said thank you before sitting back down.
"Xiao Jin, I didn’t know what you like, so I brought back some specialty products from the S country for you." Zhao Qinya handed a delicately wrapped Gui Fei Cake to Ye Jin with a smile, "You wouldn’t look down on it, would you?"
"What are you talking about, elder sister-in-law? The fact that you thought of me is enough to make me happy. How could I look down on it?"
Ye Jin stood up, accepted the box of Gui Fei Cake with both hands, and even though she felt disdainful, she disguised it very well, pretending to really like it.
Shi Keke glanced at her and smiled with a hint of mischief: "Young Aunt, these Gui Fei Cakes taste really good. If you like them, be sure to let me know. If I have the chance to visit S country again, I’ll definitely bring back a few boxes for you."
Upon hearing this, Ye Jin put on an elegantly forced smile, "Keke is so understanding. But really, you don’t have to go through the trouble for me."
Shi Keke shrugged indifferently: "It’s no trouble. They’re just over eight hundred a box; I can buy you two or three boxes with just my daily allowance."
Gui Fei Cakes costing over eight hundred per box couldn’t compare with the exorbitant wild cordyceps.
But if Shi Keke hadn’t mentioned it, Ye Jin might not have felt anything, yet, after hearing her words, her expression did change.
"Keke, didn’t you say you wanted to go see your two little nephews? It’s not mealtime yet, so why don’t you go upstairs and check on them with Mom?"
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit off, Zhao Qinya quickly stood up, went to Shi Keke, and pulled her away.
When they reached the staircase, Shi Keke turned her head and called out, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, wait for me. I’ll come down later to drink with you and get my two good brothers drunk."
Hearing Shi Keke’s voice, Shen Cheng turned to look at her and couldn’t help but curve her lips in amusement: "We’ll see if you’ve got the skills for that."
"You can ask my brother about my drinking ability. I can easily polish off a catty of white alcohol and three bottles of red wine without even blushing," Shi Keke said confidently.
"Who’s saying I can’t?" Shen Cheng teased with a light smile, "Good or bad drinking ability, we won’t know until we try it."
Shi Keke was about to say something else, but Zhao Qinya tugged at her hand again, and only then did she stop and follow her upstairs.
At this moment, Shi Yu slid his arm around Shen Cheng’s shoulder and whispered in her ear, "Who’s saying they can’t? Whether or not you can try depends on asking me."
Shen Cheng certainly knew what he meant.
Just now, when she told Shi Keke that one needs to try to know if the drinking ability is good, ’try’ meant drinking.
And his meaning meant that whether she could drink or not had to be asked through him, depending on his mood.
"So, can I try?"
Shen Cheng went along with it, looking up at him and asking seriously.
Shi Yu didn’t look at her or answer her question, just brushed a strand of hair behind her ear with his hand.
"Can I?"
Shen Cheng looked at him intently and asked again.
"It’s passable," Shi Yu said casually, a faint smile playing on his lips.
Shen Cheng didn’t ask him what ’passable’ meant, assuming that his words were an agreement, and her lips involuntarily formed a greedy smile.
Ye Jin had been observing Shen Cheng and Shi Yu for quite some time, seeing them being intimate and affectionate, feeling a sudden surge of resentment.
"I’m going to the restroom."
After giving Shi Yaoguang a nod, she stood up and headed toward the restroom.
