Chapter 1398: He Actually Thanked Her!?

Cai Anqi stamped her feet in frustration and harrumphed. She headed back to her bedroom and came back with her leather wallet. She took out some RMB notes from the wallet and gave them to the delivery person.

Ning Shu noticed that Cai Anqis wallet was from a famous brand. The wallet probably cost tens of thousands.

Seemed like Cai Anqi was indeed quite well-off.

Cai Anqi, who had to pay for the food, looked very disgruntled. She purposefully stomped in anger as she walked away.

Ning Shu pretended to not hear anything. She calmly called w.a.n.g Bo and told him to return home for lunch.

When w.a.n.g Bo got home, he saw a table full of fragrant food. He turned to Ning Shu in astonishment and asked, You ordered from outside?

Ning Shu nodded in reply. Anqi doesnt want to cook. She said shell only order takeout from now on.

w.a.n.g Bo frowned and said, How much was it?

w.a.n.g Bo was a working man, and the entire pressure of supporting his family was on him. The whole meal already cost him several hundred yuan, while his daily salary was only a few hundred yuan.

Cai Anqi overheard w.a.n.g Bos words when she came out of her bedroom, and her face instantly turned dark. She sharply pulled back her chair and sat down.

I paid for it, not you, snapped Cai Anqi. Her rude words immediately put people on the spot.

w.a.n.g Bo couldnt help but glance at his mother, but Ning Shu wasnt fazed. Instead, she calmly started to serve lunch.

w.a.n.g Bo felt humiliated, but he didnt know how to counter Cai Anqi. So, he took a deep breath to compose himself and replied, Anqi, thank you.

When Ning Shu heard this, she really felt like dumping the bowl of chicken stew on w.a.n.g Bos face. He actually thanked her!?

Cai Anqi snorted coldly and lifted her chopsticks to begin eating.

w.a.n.g Bo had no choice but to eat in awkward silence. He began to stuff his face with food to quickly escape the uncomfortable atmosphere. Ning Shu placed a bowl of chicken stew in front of w.a.n.g Bo and said, Try this. Anqi had killed a chicken to make stew for you.

w.a.n.g Bos face immediately lit up as he smiled towards Cai Anqi and said, Thank you.

Cai Anqi simply nodded.

w.a.n.g Bo finished a bowl of chicken stew and went back to work after eating. After Cai Anqi was done eating, she pushed her bowl away and went back to her bedroom and locked the door.

Ning Shu saw that there were still several dishes leftover on the table, but she poured them all out into the trash. After she cleaned up, she returned to her room and continued to practice Unsurpa.s.sable Martial Arts.

For the rest of the day, Cai Anqi and Ning Shu didnt cross paths. They both shut themselves in their rooms.

In the evening, when it was time for w.a.n.g Bo to return home from work, Ning Shu finally knocked on Cai Anqis door and said, Its evening already. Its time to order food.

Again? Didnt I just order at noon? Cai Anqis voice turned high in surprise.

Ning Shu smiled kindly and explained, You said that the leftovers were unhealthy, so I threw them out.

You threw away all those dishes!? Cai Anqi was fuming. Its probably because you werent using your own money. Thats why youre being so wasteful.

Hahaha, I didnt see your heartache when you were using other peoples money. You only felt the pain when it was from your own wallet.

Ning Shus face remained unchanged. It was the meal you ordered. You said that eating leftovers wasnt good for your health, so I threw it out.

You... Cai Anqi was so furious that her chest heaved, and she inwardly cursed at the old woman.

To h.e.l.l with honesty. She was clearly a wicked mother-in-law!

Its time for dinner. You should order more food, said Ning Shu blankly.

Cai Anqi held Ning Shus arm and coquettishly said, Mother, you cook the most delicious food. I like what you cook best, and the food cooked at home is clean and healthy.

With a kind smile pasted on her face, Ning Shu gently patted Cai Anqis hand which was on her arm and said, Youre also a woman. You should know that at my age, menopause causes the body to be really uncomfortable. Cooking is too difficult for me in this state.
