Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

Chapter 996 - 998: She’s Still Far From It!

After all the trouble of preparing the meal, if I can’t use it to figure out this annoying person in front of me, it would truly be a waste.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Xiaoxiao decided to go for it — she’d eat it right in front of him.

Just taking a small bite and pretending like it’s no big deal should be enough to dispel his suspicions.

So she smiled gently at Big Boss and said, "In that case, I won’t worry about you. I’ll eat first; I’m actually quite hungry."

As Xiaoxiao spoke, she picked up her chopsticks, took a small bite from the mound, and put it in her mouth.

She intended to swallow it down immediately, but to make it convincing, she had to chew.

Once the food was in her mouth, she regretted it instantly; she hadn’t even begun chewing before the fiery heat hit her.

She had truly underestimated her meticulously prepared dish; it was so spicy, it could kill.

Tears were almost streaming from her eyes from the heat, but she was determined to figure out the person in front of her.

Still pretending to chew slowly, she finally swallowed down the searingly spicy dish.

After finishing, Xiaoxiao pretended and said, "Hmm, my cooking is still the best. Why aren’t you eating? Come on, eat up! Not eating would really be your loss; it’s not easy to get to eat my cooking!"

Seeing Xiaoxiao like this, Big Boss was even more amused; this girl could really act.

What on earth did she put in this dish?

Seeing her frowning so much her eyebrows nearly touched, with tears almost streaming down, yet she forced it down.

How much did she dislike him? How keen was she to figure him out?

He smiled slightly; back in Anding Village, he was often bullied by this girl; now it’s all coming back to him.

"Is it? If it’s tasty, you eat it all!"

"..." Huh? This wasn’t how the plot was supposed to go!

Xiaoxiao continued to persuade tirelessly, "Don’t! I can’t finish so much alone; let’s eat together."

"..." Knowing the food has issues, yet he would eat? He’s not that silly, "I’m full; weren’t you hungry? You eat it all!"

Upon hearing this, Xiaoxiao slammed the table furiously; she intended to prank him, but it was clear she was the one being pranked.

She shouted angrily at Big Boss, "Are you nuts? You’re full, so why did you make me cook? Are you messing with me?"

"Oh, dear girl, you’re wrong about me; isn’t it because I’m afraid you wouldn’t get used to the mountain food? That’s why I told you to cook for yourself; I meant well."

Such words almost made Xiaoxiao explode with anger; she felt she was incompatible with this person from the start; there hadn’t been anything good since knowing him.

"Girl, don’t get angry; everyone’s watching, sit down and eat; weren’t you hungry?"

Xiaoxiao then realized the whole dining table was now hushed to silence; everyone was watching her.

Xiaoxiao said angrily, "I’m not eating anymore!"

"Come on, weren’t you hungry?"

Seeing Big Boss’s smiling face, Xiaoxiao understood; the game with the food was exposed.

She had lost completely! She still had much to learn.

"I’m not hungry anymore; does that concern you?" Xiaoxiao sat there, arms crossed, huffing, no use eating now since it was exposed!

Moreover, why was it so spicy and awful, definitely the worst dish she’d ever made in her life, nobody would eat it!

Seeing Xiaoxiao like this, Big Boss knew the girl had been figured out enough; time to let her off the hook.

But such well-prepared food shouldn’t just go to waste!
