Jiang Xuecheng was skillful at lying and he was even able to do it without blinking.
He looked natural and calmly put another slice of sweet and sour lotus root into his mouth to prove that he really liked the dish.
However, Su Wan sensed something amiss. Recalling his frown earlier on, she felt his behavior was abnormal.
She remembered him telling her that he was not picky when it came to food and had no preference to taste!
Su Wan casted him a doubtful look. While he was not paying attention, she quickly snatched a few slices of lotus root with her chopsticks.
When Jiang Xuecheng saw Su Wan's gesture, he hastily called out to her, "Don't eat it!"
However, it was too late. Su Wan had taken a bite.
The minute she chewed, she spat out the slice of lotus root.
God, why was it so salty?
