178 Someone Had His Sights on His Highness Jiu (1/2)

The pain in her stomach was still there, but nobody could tell that there was anything different about Fu Jiu.

Just like what Qin Mo had said about her, a person like Fu Jiu was really difficult to see through.

At breakfast, there was a huge fruit platter on the table, and most of them were pear slices.

Chen Xiaodong moved closer and told her in a small voice, ”These were sent here directly from the hotel under Young Master Qin's orders. He said that Young Master had excessive body heat, so it's better for you to eat some.” He swore that he wasn't overthinking things this time! But, what exactly happened last night? Young Master even had excessive body heat!

Fu Jiu lifted her eyebrows and looked at that fruit platter.

Pears were fruits with a cool nature.

All women knew that during their great auntie's[1] visit, this kind of fruit was the most unsuitable.

When Fu Jiu was on her period, she didn't even dare to drink cold water, let alone eat pears.

But this time, Fu Jiu picked a piece up with a smile and put it in her mouth. ”Nice, tasty. Thanks, Brother Mo.”

Qin Mo retrieved his gaze from the young man's face and asked someone to bring a bowl of soup. The soup had the same purpose—to lower her body heat and get rid of the smog!

There were lily roots in the soup, so Fu Jiu really didn't want to drink it. But someone as smart as this god would surely realize something was going on later on, even if he didn't realize it on the spot.

Therefore, she needed to fully act this farce out. Fu Jiu raised her head up and drained the cold soup in one swig.

Qin Mo watched Fu Jiu finish it, but he noticed her hesitation. His eyebrows twitched a little. ”You don't like lily roots?”

”Not a fan.” Fu Jiu curled her lips up. ”I'm a picky eater.”

Qin Mo nodded and sounded indifferent, ”Teenage rebellious phase.”

Fu Jiu: ...What does this have to do with the rebellious phase of adolescence?
