Accidentally Married A Fox God – The Sovereign Lord Spoils His Wife Chapter 338 Ardent Expectation

"Fine, fine, all the more for !" Bao Li gave Li irong the evil eye as she emptied the contents of Li irong’s cup into her own. Yet Bao Li didn’t stop there.

After her third consecutive drink, Li irong grabbed the wine bottle and hid it in her dinsion.

"No more wine for you, either," Li irong said sternly. "You’ve picked up a bad habit."

Bao Li’s large, childlike eyes glimred with unshed tears. Her pitiful expression was capable of lting the coldest of hearts.

"Li irong, do you even have a heart?" Bao Li asked, pointing a shaking, accusing finger across the table when Li irong remained unaffected. "Are you truly my friend?"

Unaffected by Bao Li’s dramatic performance, Li irong slowly took a sip of her tea.

"Drinking too much is bad for you," she countered calmly. "I will be a bad friend if I don’t take care of you."

Bao Li’s expression quickly shifted from pleading to irritation, and she switched tactics. If her first strategy of garnering sympathy was not going to work, then she would need to go for sothing else.

She harrumphed loudly and waved a fist in the air. "Whether or not you take good care of , you would know the answer to that very well. I am still your senior, even if I am, unlike you, an outer sect disciple."

"Yes, you are," Li irong agreed, smiling helplessly and nodding her head. "Head Chef Bao Li, what can I do to make you feel better that does not include allowing you to continue drinking?"

The question seed to appease Bao Li’s temper, for she relaxed her pose once more. She placed her small hands back on her lap as a rare little smile spread across her plump, rosy cheeks.

Across the table, Xiao An Fei allowed herself to take another sip from her cup now that the situation had finally cald down. ’Humans are difficult creatures to comprehend,’ she mused silently.

Bao Li cleared her throat a few tis. "This morning, I traveled from Healer’s Peak over to our division’s kitchens. As I ca back, I happened to pass by your house..."

As she trailed off, Bao Li eyed Li irong with an ardently expectant look.

Li irong rely raised one brow questioningly. Her crystal-clear eyes were tinged with perplexion.

"Oh?" she queried.

"You... you do not have anything else you wish to say?" Bao Li asked, annoyed.

"I... I really don’t know what you want from ." Li irong’s confusion was clearly shown in her face.

From Bao Li’s tone, it seed to Li irong as though her friend expected her to confess to sothing. But, for the life of her, she couldn’t figure out what.

Usually, Bao Li would not beat around the bush for long. The chef was a rather upfront sort of person. The main subject she seed to whine over was about acquiring Snowball...

Li irong dearly hoped Bao Li wouldn’t ask for him again. There was no way she would give up her fox spirit, even if he was an unruly little thing.

Xiao An Fei, sitting demure and silent across the table, was still as a statue. Her dainty hand, gripping the cup close to her lips, froze mid-air as her eyes widened slightly in understanding.

This very morning, she and her sister had presented Bai Yu before the Sovereign Lord in this garden. Could it be that this Bao Li girl had overheard their conversation from afar and ca to inform Her Ladyship?

If so, then Xiao An Fei had to find an appropriate ti to intervene, and silence Bao Li before it was too late!

She chose to remain tactfully silent for the mont, to continue assessing the situation. Xiao An Fei was not fully certain of the chef’s motives, and so she would restrain herself for now. Her jaw clenched, and she hoped she would not need to take any drastic asures.
