Chapter 935: 935 Chapter 935: 935 The two of them, one tending to the fire, the other chopping and frying vegetables, worked together to prepare dinner.
Having been confined in her room all afternoon, Li Rong’er had been stewing in frustration since Xiao Yishan had taken her back to her room and then went back to work in the yard.
She waited and waited, but he didn’t return to coax her, generating a whole afternoon of suffocation, and at the sa ti, she began to particularly resent the presence of Su Qingyue and Tao ijiao.
As the sky darkened, she wondered whether to start making dinner or not.
Xiao Yishan was helping Xiao Yuchuan with work and had only agreed to provide lunch.
Rong’er then planned to make dinner just for Xiao Yishan and herself.
Upon entering the kitchen, Li Rong’er slled the aroma of chicken stew cooking in the stove pot and a plate of fried fish, making her drool with desire.
She didn’t want to be mocked, so she endured the delicious sll and acted as if nothing were unusual.

Seeing Xiao Qinghe and Tao ijiao chatting and laughing, preparing dinner like husband and wife, she couldn’t help but utter sarcastically, “Oh, Miss Tao, how did you end up with my fourth brother?
You’re an un-married girl, don’t you feel ashad?”
She didn’t get along with Tao ijiao and couldn’t care less if Xiao Qinghe was on her side or not.
Besides, she didn’t believe for a second that a young Miss from the town would take an interest in a disabled man.
Tao ijiao snorted, “That’s none of your business!”
Xiao Qinghe, however, said, “Miss Tao, she’s right, you should stay away from , to avoid any misunderstandings.”
Tao ijiao laughed and said, “Fourth brother, I truly like you, Xiao Yue even said she’s happy to see us together.”
Xiao Qinghe’s body stiffened, a bitter taste spreading through his heart, “Did she really say that?”
“Why would I lie to you?” She remarked, “Xiao Yue and I are good friends.
If she hadn’t agreed, I wouldn’t dare have designs on you.”
“My, how truly shaless,” Li Rong’er said with a look of disdain.
“Miss Tao, despite being a wealthy young lady, clinging to a man like that, you’re about to lose all face for your family.”
“I like Xiao Qinghe openly and honorably.
Much better than you, a lowly cousin, stripping off and climbing into second Brother Xiao’s bed!”
Li Rong’er retorted, “You’re also shalessly enticing Xiao Qinghe…”
“When you lured Xiao Yishan, he was still a married man,” Tao ijiao snorted, “Xiao Qinghe and I are both single and intending to get married.
What’s wrong with us bonding a little?”
Xiao Qinghe was startled by her words, his complexion turning pale as he urgently said, “Miss Tao, don’t talk nonsense!
You and I are impossible!”
“How is it impossible?” Tao ijiao, exhibiting her young Miss’s temper, beca even more persistent as Qinghe resisted, “Let tell you straight, I took a liking to you from the very first mont I saw you.
Over the years, no young Master has caught my eye.
I want you to marry into the Tao Mansion and be my son-in-law!”
Xiao Yishan and Xiao Yuchuan, standing outside the courtyard, overheard Tao ijiao’s bold declaration.
They both were surprised but would be pleased to see it happen.
Du Juan was anxiously waiting in the yard, “Young Lady, please don’t talk recklessly.
If these words spread, it will ruin your reputation.”
“So what if it’s ruined?
I’ve set my heart on Xiao Qinghe!” Tao ijiao simply blurted out her thoughts.
Xiao Qinghe, a village boy, had never been confessed to by a girl in such a way before.
His clean and handso face blushed with embarrassnt but also showed a troubled look tinged with anger, “Miss Tao, please don’t be petulant.
We’ve only just t today!”
“So what if we’ve only t today?” Tao ijiao dismissed the objection, “I fell for you at first sight!”
