Chapter 1085: Chapter 1085: Stubborn as a Dead Duck
Jian Dan didn’t know that all day today, two people had been following them.
Perhaps it was because these two didn’t have any ill intentions that Jian Dan hadn’t noticed them.
These two were none other than Shang Simiao and Chen Xirui.
“How about it? After following Jian Dan all day, how do you feel?” Uncle Simiao asked, looking at Jian Dan.
They had just been at Shang Mansion, where Simiao said Xi Rui would like Jian Dan, but she didn’t believe it. So, they made a bet to see if Xi Rui would end up liking Jian Dan after all.
“What kind of feeling? It’s just been one day, how could I feel anything?” Chen Xirui spoke defiantly.
“Alright, how about we continue tomorrow?”
“Continue then! Who’s afraid of you?!”
“Good!”
Although Chen Xirui’s tone was tough, deep down something had already changed, but she hadn’t noticed it herself. Besides, she was naturally resistant, which made it even harder to detect.
“Then shall I take you back to Li Garden?”
“I’m staying at your place tonight!”
“What? Why at my place?”
“What? Is there a problem?” Xi Rui glared at him with her big eyes.
Simiao swallowed hard, “Okay, okay, okay! Whatever you want!” This little tyrant had never been one to mess with since childhood. To go against her wishes would lead to consequences that ordinary people couldn’t endure.
“That’s more like it!”
“Well then, my lady, this way, please!” Simiao had none of the presence of the young master of the Shang family in front of Xi Rui.
“No!”
“Now what?”
“I’m hungry. I want to eat first!”
So many demands!
That was Simiao’s truest thought, but what he said was, “What would you like to eat, princess? We’ll go have it right now!”
“I want to have Liangpi!”
“Liangpi? What is that?”
“You don’t know either, do you? I knew it!” Xi Rui had a I-told-you-so look. “I don’t really know what it is either. I just saw someone eating it in a video by chance, and it looked incredibly delicious, so I wanted to try it too!”
“But where do we go to eat Liangpi?” It was akin to asking him a riddle!
“How would I know? Obviously, you need to figure it out!” Xi Rui spoke confidently.
“Me??” Simiao forced a reluctant smile.
Did I owe you in a past life?
“Any problem?”
“I’ll think of something!” At this moment, Simiao was both helpless and speechless.
Simiao sent more than ten WeChat messages to Chu Liyuan, only to receive a few words in return: Good luck with that!
He was truly in a situation where neither heaven nor earth would respond to his calls!
He was usually the one asked for favors, and now he had to ask others. He just couldn’t swallow his pride. When he finally had no idea what to do, a name suddenly popped into his head. “How did I not think of this sooner?” he muttered as he took out his phone and made a call.
“Uncle Simiao? Why are you calling me? Do you need something?”
“Jian Dan, I have a question I’d like to ask you.”
“You’re asking me for advice?” It was strange for Uncle Simiao to seek her counsel.
“Do you know where to buy Liangpi?”
“Ah?”
“Do you know?”
“As a seasoned foodie, how could I not know? I’ll tell you a place that’s really delicious!” Despite her curiosity, since Uncle Simiao had asked, she still intended to tell him.
“Thanks so much!” He knew he had asked the right person.
“I’ll send you the address right now!”
After hanging up the phone, Jian Dan sent Simiao an address.
‘Uncle Simiao, this is a snack street, where you can find lots of delicious places. I’ll send you the names in a bit, and if you’d like, you can try some too!’
After sending the voice message, she followed up with a text detailing the best foods and the names of the shops.
Seeing the detailed guide, Simiao finally smiled and sent a message back to Jian Dan: Thanks!
