Xinyou knew she was retorting her, so she curled her lips and her face was full of dissatisfaction, “How dare you? I’m telling you, since now I’m nice to you, you should be grateful. Serve the porridge for me, or I’ll tell Kerry how incompetent you are as a cook!”
Venus really wasn’t afraid anymore. She pursed her lips, but her tone was calm, “Go ahead. It would be a lot easier for me if he could remove me from this position.”
Seeing her look like she was dying to be like this, Xinyou was furious and she found that recently Venus was better at arguing with her.
Xinyou should really do something practical to teach her.
“I was just joking, and I’m not going to do something like this that the gain is not worth the loss!” Xinyou looked smug and said with a malicious tone.
Venus wasn’t surprised. She had known her for four years, and she knew her better than anyone else after seeing her true face.
“It’s none of my business.” After serving the porridge, she turned around and took out a tray from the cupboard.
Xinyou focused on her movements, with a grim smile on her face and said, “Even if I were to do it, I would do the best. I want you to die, to disappear in front of me!”
Xinyou’s eyes were a little flickering as she spoke, but Venus didn’t see it because she was back to her, but when Xinyou said that, she felt some unease.
She had a feeling that Xinyou was tactfully telling her that she was about to deal with her again…
Venus stiffened, but she quickly returned to her original state. She turned around with an expressionless face, holding the hot porridge and walking to the dining table.
Looking at her back, Xinyou withdrew her gaze and landed unkindly on her bowl, smiling wryly.
When Kerry came down from the stairs, he saw that Venus was carrying the food to the dining table, and for some reason, when he noticed the cartoon patterned apron on her, he felt warm inwardly.
Passing through the stairs of the living room, he came directly to the dining table and sat down, and when he only saw Venus was busy around, Kerry frowned, “Where is Mrs. Qin?”
Naturally, this was said to Xinyou, who was already seated on the side, and Xinyou replied while picking up his favorite food to him, “Mrs. Qin saw that there is no more coffee beans you usually drink, so she went to get some when she was preparing dinner.”
Kerry heard it and didn’t care, instead he noticed Venus who was tidying up the kitchen and raised his voice, “Stop it. Hurry up and eat.”
Venus cheered herself up.
Xinyou glanced at her unintentionally and picked up the spoon and gently drank some hot porridge, praising her hypocritically, “Venus, your porridge is really good, especially the cinnamon in this and the fragrance is smooth and soft. The taste is really good, Kerry you should drink more.”
Kerry was calm and he took some and indifferently said, “Just so-so. Much worse than Mrs. Qin.”
Hearing his words, Venus snorted inside. Since it’s far worse, why he still drank it? What’s wrong with him?
Looking at him as he continued to drink the porridge, Venus really had the urge to throw it away. She had cooked it herself and she definitely didn’t wat him to drink.
Xinyou concentrated on her porridge. Soon she finished half bowl of porridge and she elegantly picked up a napkin to wipe her mouth.
Her fingers gently touched the edge of the bowl and spoke, “Kerry, let’s go for a walk in the courtyard later. It’s not good for you to sit in your office all day.”
