Soon, all the dishes were served. Ji Lan was the first to sit down, and He Yi sat opposite her. Ren Hao was one step too slow. He was furious, but he could only sit in another seat.
Ren Hao looked at the food on the table, and a look of disdain appeared in his eyes.
They were indeed living the life of the lower class. What kind of food were they serving him?
"Ji Lan, is this what you eat now? I remember that in the past, you used to eat escargots and foie gras, but now..." Ren Hao glanced at He Yi as he spoke, but he did not finish his sentence.
However, before Ren Hao could finish his sentence, he glared at He Yi.
He Yi paused for a moment, and the tip of his fingers that were holding the chopsticks turned white.
Ji Lan was keen as she reached out and held He Yi's hand as if she was comforting him.
"I used to live with my family, so I couldn't choose what to eat, but I can make my own decisions now. Why should I eat the things that I don't like to eat?
"What? So I can't make my own decision now?" Ji Lan raised her eyebrows, and her words were dangerous.
"No, it's good that you like it." Ren Hao clicked his tongue and shook his head. "It's just that it doesn't suit your status. You are the Ji family's daughter..."
"I heard that your illegitimate little brother is about to join your family?" Ji Lan raised her eyebrows. "I wonder if you still can be the only Young Master Ren in the Ren family."
"You!" Ren Hao stared at Ji Lan. "What do you mean?"
Ji Lan had memories of her previous life. No one knew Ren Hao's weaknesses better than her.
Ren Hao's father was fickle-minded and had countless mistresses outside. He could have at least three illegitimate children out there. If Ren Hao was not his only adult son, he would have been abandoned long ago.
That was why he was so eager to marry Ji Lan. With that, he could obtain the support of the Ji family, gain the attention of his father, and prevent those illegitimate children to be brought up to the public.
She remembered that in her previous life, Ren Hao had disappeared for several years after the divorce, and he was sentenced to death not long later. The second son of the Ren family, who was the adopted son of his father, was the rightful heir of the Ren family.
As for Ren Hao's fate, Ji Lan had heard from others that she had seen him in some male porn movies and some private clubs.
She heard from others that Ren Hao was a celebrity in the movies, and many perverts liked him because he was flirtatious and willing to go all out.
"What do I mean? Don't you know what I'm saying?" Ji Lan smiled. "The soup is almost ready. I'll go get it."
Ji Lan said the last sentence to He Yi.
As soon as Ji Lan left, Ren Hao was hostile to He Yi, and he sneered.
"He Yi? Why don't you clean yourself up and take a look at yourself? You don't deserve to stay by Ji Lan's side. Marriage is the union of two families. What about you? What can you bring to Ji Lan? What benefits can you bring to Ji Lan's family? You are people from two different worlds. You can't give her happiness. Be sensible and leave her alone."
Just as Ji Lan was about to bring out the soup, she heard Ren Hao's words, and a cold light flashed in her eyes.
Ji Lan made some voices, and the both of them in the dining room kept quiet. Ji Lan then walked out of the kitchen with a smile on her face.
"He Yi, this is the beef stew with radish soup that I just learned how to cook. Try it and see if it tastes good."
She pretended not to see He Yi's awful expression. She took a bowl and served him the soup. "It's very nutritious."
She turned around to take another bowl and serve Ren Hao a bowl of soup. However, Ren Hao could tell the difference.
He Yi's bowl of soup had a lot of beef and radishes in, and it looked very delicious. However, what Ji Lan gave Ren Hao was utterly different as there were only a few radishes in the soup.
Ren Hao gritted his teeth. He was about to flare up, but he stared at Ji Lan's beautiful face.
Forget it. No big deal! It was not like he had not eaten beef before. He did not give a sh*t about the beef.
Ji Lan walked to Ren Hao with the bowl of soup. Ren Hao was about to take the bowl from her, but she acted like she was about to trip in a very exaggerated manner, and she threw a bowl of hot soup at Ren Hao's face.
