Chapter 126, Apology (1 more)

When Xie Zhinuan said this, Yuanbao listened but dared not take it seriously.

This Miss Xie, neither motivated by money nor daunted by power, was not an easy person to manipulate.

"Alright, alright, Miss Xie, whatever is convenient for you!" Yuanbao took the basket and hurried back with it.

Xie Zhinuan smiled and turned to call for dinner.

Perhaps because of yesterday's incident, everyone was being somewhat cautious, but Xie Zhinuan smiled and did not expose them.

"Let's eat!"

Yuanbao, carrying the basket, returned promptly to set the table for Li Hengyi: pork bone congee with cured meat, cold cucumber salad, quite simple dishes.

Li Hengyi did not speak, took his chopsticks and ate little by little.

It was indeed the familiar taste, and the slight frustration in his heart dissipated, calming down for dinner.
