The Little Brat's Sweet And Sassy

Chapter 703 - See How You Like It

Chapter 703: See How You Like It

Xu Yini’s expression turned cold.

She was the eldest daughter of the Xu family, one of the top socialites in the Capital. She had been pampered and received special treatment since she was young.

Other than Lu Huaiyu, she had never been wronged like this by anyone else.

How could she possibly accept this?

“Gu Siyang, aren’t you going too far by doing this?”

Xu Yini glanced at Shen Li with a mocking gaze.

“I know this restaurant belongs to the Gu family, but since it’s open for business, there’s no reason to drive the customers out, right? Are you sure you want to do this... just for her?”

Her tone was nothing short of contemptuous.

She had also heard of some of the things that had happened a while ago.

Ning Li was Ning, but she was also Tree’s Shadow.

She was a top designer that countless people in the fashion industry pursued, and she was also Mei Yanqing’s last disciple.

In the eyes of many people, this kind of identity was already quite amazing.

However, Xu Yini did not really think much of it.

To the people in the circle of the aristocratic families in the Capital, these things were not even as important as her being Lu Huaiyu’s girlfriend.

Updates by

The Lu family, Lu Huaiyu, and the power behind them were the most powerful and unshakable.

However, so what if she was his girlfriend?

After all, there was no real security to that status. Once they broke up, she would be nothing.

Just because of this one person, Gu Siyang wanted to offend her and the Xu family?

Everyone knew that this action would not be worth it.

No matter what, Gu Siyang was the young master of the Gu family. How could he not see this clearly?

However, after she said these words, she did not see the hesitation on Gu Siyang’s face as she had hoped.

On the contrary, he smiled, and it was a very bright smile.

“That’s right!”

He nodded without hesitation,

“It’s all for her!”

Xu Yini’s expression froze.

After a while, she looked at Shen Li and sneered.

“It looks like I underestimated you in the past. You... are really capable.”

To have the ability to make Lu Huaiyu make an exception for her, and to make Gu Siyang help her like this.

How could an ordinary person do this?

Shen Li looked at her calmly without any emotion in her eyes. It was as if she was not bothered by what she had said at all.

However, the more she behaved this way, the angrier Xu Yini became.

Her gaze swept over the two of them with a mocking gaze.

“Does Huaiyu know that Young Master Gu is standing up for you this way?”

When she said this, the surroundings fell silent for a moment.

Gu Siyang was momentarily stunned.

No, he was helping his cousin. Why did he need Lu Huaiyu’s permission for that?

Shen Li, however, calmly spoke up.

“Does Second Brother know that you still address him like that?”

The smile on Xu Yini’s face suddenly froze.

Shen Li’s tone was very calm, as if she was asking whether the weather was good today.

However, it was precisely because of this that Xu Yini was particularly embarrassed.

A strong sense of shame surged into her heart, causing Xu Yini’s face to turn pale.

Yes.

In the past, she had always addressed Lu Huaiyu like that because the Xu family and the Lu family had been family friends. She had done that to deliberately show off that she had a bit of closeness to others.

However, ever since Lu Huaiyu had decisively dealt with her the last time, she knew that she was no longer qualified to do so.

Now that these words had come out of Shen Li’s mouth, it was even more condescending and sarcastic.

Xu Yini gritted her teeth and lifted her feet to walk out.

As she brushed past Shen Li, she suddenly thought of something and stopped in her tracks. She turned her head to look.

Her voice was extremely low.

“Do you really think that you’re the one he likes the most?”

Shen Li met her gaze with an indifferent expression.

The corners of Xu Yini’s lips curled up into a mocking smile.

“You’re so pitiful.”

Shen Li tilted her head, as if she did not understand what she was saying.

The very next moment, she asked, “Miss Xu, in what capacity are you saying this to me now?”

Xu Yini’s lips turned pale.

After all, that was Lu Huaiyu’s girlfriend, and she was nothing!

Xu Yini finally could not take it anymore and turned around to leave.

“Yini! Wait for me!”

The other woman quickly followed after her.

The two of them quickly disappeared out the door.

Gu Siyang turned around and looked at them in disbelief.

“What’s wrong with this Xu Yini’s brain?”

He looked at the manager who was accompanying him and frowned.

“From now on, please be more careful. Don’t let her enter through this door again... It’s bad luck.”

The manager quickly bowed in response.

“Yes, sir.”

Shen Li was too lazy to waste her time on such people and such matters.

“Let’s just go in to eat. Haven’t you been wanting to eat for a long time?”

At the mention of this, Gu Siyang was suddenly reenergized. He said to Barkley, “Yes, yes, send up all the things that Second Uncle sent over!”

...

In the private room, Shen Li and Gu Siyang sat facing each other.

One after another, top-notch seafood ingredients were sent over.

Veron oysters, rose prawns, caviar...

Shen Li looked at the table that was filled to the brim and fell silent for a moment.

“... Does Second Uncle have some misunderstanding about my appetite?”

There were six plates of raw oysters alone.

Not to mention the other things.

There were so many items. Even with Gu Siyang present, they would definitely not be able to finish everything.

Gu Siyang waved his hand.

“It’s alright. These were sent here for you to taste. You can eat as much as you like. If you don’t like it, then don’t eat it.”

As he spoke, he opened an oyster for Shen Li, squeezed some lemon juice over it, and handed it to her.

“Try this. It’s from Kuiyi Wharf. The meat is fat and delicious. I like it very much, but I don’t know if it suits your taste.”

Kuiyi Wharf was one of the most famous wharves in Hong Kong City. The seafood that was produced there was also very famous, especially the Veron oysters.

So, it had been sent from there.

Shen Li accepted it and thanked him.

The oysters melted immediately the moment they entered the mouth. The meat was smooth and tender. When mixed with the aroma of lemon, it became even more outstanding.

She nodded.

“It’s really delicious.”

Gu Siyang chuckled and opened the second plate of oysters.

“This was sent from the fishing port pier. It’s slightly less famous than the ones from Kuiyi Wharf, but it’s also very delicious. Grandma likes this more.”

Shen Li was stunned.

“These... aren’t from the same place?”

She thought that they must have been sent from the same place at the same time.

Gu Siyang picked up a green crab next to her and casually said,”Well, not really. Although they are all in the same sea area, they are quite far away from each other. The water quality, ecological environment, management, and so on are all different, so the taste is also different.”

As he spoke, he handled the green crab in his hand neatly and opened its shell.

“Unfortunately, this isn’t the right season now. This green crab is not fat enough. In a few months, the inside of the green crab will be full of yellow, which is when it will be the most delicious.”

He placed the green crab on Shen Li’s plate and raised his chin.

“This was farmed by the Star Ferry Pier. You can try it.”

Shen Li paused.

She put down the spoon and glanced at the table again.

There were all kinds of seafood.

She asked slowly, “Did these... all come from different places?”

Gu Siyang simply nodded.

“Yes, there are seventeen piers in Hong Kong City. These were selected from each one and sent it over.”

He raised his chin.

“Eat up and tell me what you like.”

Second Uncle was still waiting.
