...
After a wait of fully around fifteen minutes, Ye Rumeng arrived fashionably late.
Ye Wenshan, afraid of upsetting Ya Shitian, had someone specially dress up Ye Rumeng.
Ye Rumeng was beautiful and had an innocent appearance, like a fairy that was out of this world.
She was particularly suited to wearing pure white dresses, which made her seem even more ethereal and saintly.
At this moment, she was dressed in a tight-fitting white dress that not only highlighted her slender and exquisite figure but also accentuated her breathtaking purity.
Compared to her, Ye Anqi's beauty seemed coquettish and flamboyant, lacking in refinement.
Overall, upon seeing Ye Rumeng, people's first impression was of a celestial angel.
Upon seeing Ye Anqi, the first impression was that of a seductive vixen...
Therefore, Ye Rumeng was C City's number one beauty, while Ye Anqi not only ranked second but was also always subject to people's ridicule and exclusion.
It was for this reason that the original host hated Ye Rumeng so fiercely.
But now, Ye Anqi looked at Ye Rumeng with a very calm gaze, without any trace of jealousy.
Ye Rumeng sat down on the other side of Ya Shitian with an expressionless face.
Ye Wenshan, standing to the side, apologized, "Mr. Ya, as you know, Rumeng is injured, her body isn't in good shape, and she even had a headache earlier. That's why she didn't want to come down for the meal. I hope you can be a little more understanding."
Ya Shitian glanced at the bandage on Ye Rumeng's forehead, "Does the second miss's wound still hurt?"
Ye Rumeng responded indifferently, "Thank you for your concern, I feel much better."
"I thought you might have been killed by that blow to your head," Ya Shitian said sarcastically, curling his lip.
Thinking of the humiliation from the day before, Ye Rumeng felt a surge of anger.
She hated Ye Anqi, and also hated Ya Shitian.
Having always been adored by everyone, this was the first time she had suffered such a significant insult, and she couldn't swallow her pride.
Ye Wenshan quickly tried to smooth things over, "Please have your meal, Mr. Ya. The dishes won't taste good if they get cold."
"But I want to eat the fish flesh personally picked by the second miss," Ya Shitian said with a smile as he stared at Ye Rumeng.
Ye Anqi immediately put down her chopsticks, realizing there was no place for her in this.
Ye Rumeng frowned and replied very impolitely, "Does Mr. Ya not have hands? Can't you pick them yourself?"
"I just want to eat fish flesh picked by the second miss. I think it would be very delicious."
"Sorry, but I'm not good at picking out fish bones."
"Miss Ye is capable of doing it, how come you can't?" Ya Shitian's expression cooled slightly.
Ye Rumeng looked at Ye Anqi with disdain, "She is she, I am me. Is there anything she can't do?"
The sentence that followed was purely sarcastic...
Ye Anqi raised her eyebrows and laughed provocatively, "You're right, I can do everything. Are you envious or jealous?"
Ye Rumeng looked at her in astonishment, then sneered with contempt.
"I wish I would never know how to do the things you can do," she continued to mock her.
Ye Anqi remained unbothered, laughing lightly, "I'm so sorry, but I can eat, I can sleep, I can talk; all of which I also wish you'll never be able to do in your lifetime."
Ye Rumeng frowned, "How boring!"
"Yes, it's so boring. Mr. Ya, I'm feeling sleepy. May I go rest now?" Ye Anqi then turned to ask Ya Shitian.
Ya Shitian raised an eyebrow, "You haven't eaten yet. Eat first, then I'll consider it."
"Alright, I'll eat right now."
Ye Anqi, flexible and adaptable, picked up her chopsticks and started eating earnestly. She wasn't just feigning interest in the meal; she was genuinely enjoying the food.
Ye Wenshan, in an attempt to please Ya Shitian, had arranged for a very sumptuous meal with excellent flavors.
The motto of Ye Anqi's life was that good food should never be wasted.
