    Su Wanqing returned a gentle smile, there was understanding, tolerance, and the firmness not to back down in the face of difficulties in that smile, “I know.”

    Her words, concise but powerful, revealed an ease with what was about to happen.

    Regardless of whether Qi Zhi Iu was sober or drunk at the moment, his irritable temper and dissatisfaction had long since become a part of his personality in Su Wanqing’s opinion.

    Instead of blaming for this, she chose to work in her own way to dissolve this disconnect born of misunderstanding.

    “If you don’t think it’s good, I’ll ask the chef from Mount Yi Ping to make it some other day. You can order it anytime you want to eat it.”

    Su Wanqing’s words, there is not the slightest complaint, only to the family members of the deep care and understanding, she is willing to cross thousands of mountains, just to meet that one of the thoughts and expectations of home.

    Perhaps it was true anger that got the better of him, his footsteps intensified inadvertently, but he was completely unaware that his bare feet had come into direct contact with the cold ground.

    Qi Zhi Iu’s deep black eyes seemed like a bottomless abyss, locking onto her tightly, with no sign of faltering in them, revealing an unquestionable firmness.

    “Then, if you insist on this stalemate, I’ll keep you company.”

    There was a note of helplessness in her voice, but it also revealed a hint of determination.

    After a flurry of activity in the kitchen, her back felt as if it were pressed down by a thousand pounds of stone, aching and aching, and every step she took to move tugged at her tired nerves.

    She slowly turned around and walked towards the soft sofa, her posture full of calmness and nonchalance, as if she was telling the world that no matter what the storm was like, she would be able to cope with it with a calm heart.

    “If you dare to sit down, try it!”

    Qi Zhi Iu’s voice suddenly sounded from behind, and between his gritted teeth, what could not be hidden was the uncontrollable anger.

    “We are all no longer ignorant children, and controlling one’s emotions as an adult is a basic and important ability, don’t you think so, Kishii?”

    She spoke leisurely while unhurriedly pouring herself a glass of fresh water, her arms wrapped around her chest, her eyes calmly meeting his.

    Taking a sip of water, her voice was more composed, “You asked me to prepare the noodles, and I did so, and warned you in advance that the flavor might not be to your liking. The result proved to be not to your liking, so just don’t eat it, why throw a tantrum by slamming the bowl in front of the servants? With such behavior, don’t you feel ashamed of what grandpa has been teaching you and expecting of you?”

    As the words landed, he actually took a determined step towards her, ignoring the scattered ceramic shards at his feet.

    Seeing this, she noticed the blood gradually seeping out from underneath his feet, quietly blotting the floor mat underneath his feet, her brows unconsciously twisted into a ball, and the cup of water in her hand was gripped even tighter, as if it was the only thing she could rely on at this moment.

    With that, he stopped in front of her, the difference in height making him seem even more condescending, the gaze seeming to pierce through all the hypocrisy straight to the heart.

    “Are you telling me what to do?”

    His tone was full of resignation, misinterpreting her reminder as a lesson.

    Obviously it was just a kind reminder, but he had to misinterpret its meaning, this kind of stubbornness, but also very easy to be provoked.

    She gently swirled the cup in her hand, her expression bland, and shook her head gently, “The word ‘teach you’ was never appropriate for you.”

    After all, if Qi Zhiyu could easily accept the teachings of others, how could he be the well-known, maverick Qi Zhiyu?

    With that, she gently set the glass of water down, and with one side of her body, she deftly maneuvered around him and toward the other end of the room.
