Chapter 301
In some way, it could be said that Nie Jiqing’s attitude would determine Sheng Man’s fate. Then if that is the case, what if Sheng Man realized that Nie Jiqing’s love for her was no longer as stable as before?
Ye Zhi’s mind suddenly became clear.
Sheng Man was acting so weird today. Could it be related to what happened back then?
...
Sheng Man had been working hard to please Nie Jiqing recently, desperately trying any means so that she could grasp Nie Jiqing’s heart firmly and secure her place.
However, she was distressed by the fact that no matter what she did, she couldn’t seem to move her. Nie Jiqing’s bland response chilled her whole being in panic and trepidation.
Sheng Man thought for a long time and finally decided to make a bowl of chicken soup for Nie Jiqing.
After arriving at the Sheng Mansion, Sheng Man put down the chicken soup in front of Nie Jiqing and said in a soft tone: “Mom, I made chicken soup for you. Can you tell me how it tastes?”
Sheng Man also stretched out her hand in front of Nie Jiqing and cried aggrievedly: “Mom, I accidentally cut my hand to make this chicken soup.”
Sheng Man felt that Nie Jiqing’s eyes were very strange. Although Nie Jiqing was clearly looking at her, it felt more like she was seeing someone through her.
Sheng Man felt bad and panicked, feeling that Nie Jiqing was acting very strangely. Her voice trembled: “Mom, what’s the matter?”
Nie Jiqing came back to her senses and her emotions began to stabilize. Nie Jiqing looked at Sheng Man and said, “Is the chicken soup really made by you?”
Sheng Man replied quickly: “Of course.”
Nie Jiqing said, “Thank you.”
Nie Jiqing only took a few mouthfuls before putting down her spoon. “I haven’t slept well recently so my appetite is not very good.”
This was just an excuse Nie Jiqing casually made, but Sheng Man really believed it.
Sheng Man stayed with Nie Jiqing for a while before she got up and left, ready to go to work.
After Sheng Man left, Nie Jiqing looked at the chicken soup which had gone cold on the table. Sheng Man said that she made it by herself, but her instinct told her otherwise.
Nie Jiqing got up and drove to Sheng Man’s house.
The housekeeper was a little surprised when she saw Nie Jiqing. Just as she was about to speak, Nie Jiqing headed directly to the kitchen.
When Nie Jiqing arrived in the kitchen, she looked at the chef and asked, “Did the young lady ask you to make chicken soup for her today?”
