Yan Shao finally saw Zhu Qianying at five o'clock in the afternoon.
Zhu Qianying walked in carrying a big bag full of containers. Her first words were not an apology, nor was it any kind of polite greeting like it's been a while.
Instead, she said, "Yan Shao, isn't it a bit early for dinner at this time?"
Yan Shao immediately exploded!
"I asked you to deliver lunch, and now at five in the afternoon, you're saying it's early?"
Yan Shao was grateful that when he couldn't find Zhu Qianying around one o'clock, he had called Qin Xiu over to scold him. After being berated by Yan Shao, Qin Xiu immediately went across the street and bought Yan Shao's favorite meal.
Otherwise, if he had been waiting for her to bring his meal, he would have fainted from hunger by now.
Zhu Qianying blinked innocently at him as he frowned, "Lunch? Mr. Qin didn't mention it!"
Yan Shao glared at her, feeling that she was just spouting nonsense. She was clearly just antagonizing him.
