Chapter 59 - 59. Depressed Giants II (1/2)

Third person POV

Dinner*

Everyone sat on their seat like usual. The servants served the food and opened the lid. They opened the last bowl and revealing a grayish liquid in it. Bai Huiqing immediately lost her appetite after she looked at the soup. She glanced at the trembling servants.

Bai Huiqing: ” Who made this?”

The servants didn't dare to reply, they just stared at the three tall men who were acting like it wasn't them. The three little Xu brothers were giggling at their ( ML, XTF, XZQ) ignorance, actually they realized how unappetizing it looked that's why they were embarrassed to say it was them who made it.

Bai Huiqing and Hong er understood who it was by looking at their reaction. Bai Huiqing couldn't help but turn away when she saw the grayish liquid. It looked so ominous.

*clink

A clinking sound took all of their attention, they saw Hong er poured the grayish liquid to her bowl. All of them gasped, including Weisheng and the servants. Hong er spooned the soup and brought it to her mouth. All of their face were pale, no word could come out from their mouth. Hong er smiled after she tested the soup.

Hong er: ” En, it is delicious.”

Literally everyone: ”*le gasp”

Hong er: ”?”

Hong er chuckled when she saw their speechless face. Their mouth was agape, she poured them the soup and placed it in front all of them. They looked at the soup in front of them with fear.

Bai Huiqing: ' Maybe I shouldn't judge a book by its cover.'

Xu Tingfeng: ' What a frightening looking soup!'

Xu Zhiqiang: ' Even if I cooked this myself, I didn't dare to test it. No, for Hong er's sake!'

Weisheng: 'Is it even edible?'

The three little Xu brothers: ' NOOOOO!'

They looked up, Hong er smiled at them and she gulped down the soup until the last drop. Their hands were trembling, they looked at each other before they gulped down the soup.

Bai Huiqing immediately closed her mouth with her hand and turned around, the servants had prepared a bucket beforehand. Bai Huiqing threw up into the bucket. The three little Xu brothers also threw up into the bucket the servants prepared for each of them. While Xu Tingfeng, Xu Zhiqiang, and Weisheng were sitting there, didn't move, didn't make any sound. Hong er looked at them and laughed out loud.

Their body were shaking like crazy, their face were as pale as paper. There were some tears in the corner of their eyes.

Xu Tingfeng: ' HOLD IT! YOU ARE A MAN! REMEMBER YOU ARE A MAN!'

Xu Zhiqiang: ' I wanna die.'

Weisheng: ' ....'

Hong er: ” Ahahaha, what's with that expression?”

A dark aura started to leak from Weisheng's body. Hong er's hands lighted up, all of their nauseas were gone. They looked at Hong er with a weird gaze.

Bai Huiqing: ” How could you eat that ominous thing?”

Hong er: ” Because it was made by the people I love.”

Xu Tingfeng, Xu Zhiqiang, and Weisheng felt like they just arrived at heaven after coming out from hell. They almost cried on the spot but the next thing they saw made them stop. Hong er drank all of the soup from the big bowl.

Weisheng: ” Don't drink it!”

Hong er: ” Why?”

Weisheng: ” It tasted disgusting.”

Hong er: ” But it will be wasting food if we threw it away.”

Weisheng: ”…”

And Hong er got a new whole respect from everyone who saw this. Xu Tingfeng was hesitant but he hardened his heart.
