Chapter 319 - A Mermaids Tear (1/2)
The real star of tonight's dinner was undoubtedly food. The long table was laden with delicacies of all kinds to suit each person's taste. White wisps from the bowl of soup had etched themselves on the slightly chilly air of the night.
Three kinds of fishes were garnished beautifully in the silver platters. If the rich aroma of food wasn't enticing enough then the sight of those creamy sauces with garden herbs could definitely make one's mouth water.
Xu Mey had really outdone herself this time. In reality, the dinner became a reason for all these people to come together and share their happiness with each other.
During the whole dinner, Xu Mey didn't bother with Jie at all. She's been diligently serving all the food to Ye Jun who at one point thought he was really going to become the first person in this world who actually would die from the overdose of love and food. Such a weird combination!
One would think that Jie would feel uncomfortable or a bit jealous. But apparently, he was really enjoying himself. Not even for a second, his gaze shifted from Xu Mey's face. His eyes held such adoration, affection, pride, and satisfaction that it even made Yang Ziyi feel envious. Even though she was just an onlooker.
On this table filled with people, she found the pair of Xu Mey and Jie to be the perfect one. She really was envious of this love.
How could one not be jealous?
Even though she could see the way Sun Ju placed food in Lin Shen's bowl along with how Yu Kim and Li Qiao were holding hands underneath the table, in her opinion, they couldn't match the love that was brimming in Jie's eyes.
"Keep your evil eyes away from my Xiao Mey and her husband." Wu Wang's voice spoiled Yang Ziyi's mood. She was feeling such warmth in her heart and suddenly, Wu Wang's bitter words dropped on her like a bucket of ice cold water.
She clenched her fists underneath the table and glared at him hatefully. Smiling innocently at him, she answered, "Keep your dumbfuc-kering thoughts to yourself."
"Can't you stop being sarcastic for a minute?" He arched his brows.
"Sorry, but I seem to be too tired for that sh*t!" She definitely cursed to incite him again since Wu Wang's face turned black.
While Wu Wang decided to ignore her, he heard her voice again, "This conversation must have helped to make you realize one thing."
"And what's that?" Wu Wang asked as he clenched his jaw and tried to appear nonchalant.
"The fact that you should choose your words carefully around me... I definitely know how to throw them back right back at ya'."
Wu Wang languidly swirled the red wine in his glass before taking its sip completely acting as if Yang Ziyi wasn't existing in his life at all.
Thankfully for Xu Mey, the dinner ended without anything unexpected. Everyone enjoyed the meal thoroughly and thanked Xu Mey for her hospitality. Just like any other girl, she was over the moon with all the praises and compliments. It oddly satisfied her ego.
Before leaving, Yang Ziyi also came to Xu Mey. "It's really one of the best meals I have ever tasted in my life. Thank you for inviting me!"
