I thought my chance had come when Nan Xing called me and invited me to dinner with the kids. Who would’ve known it was a chance for them to hurt me instead? I had always believed that my innocent smile would fool her, but she turned the tables on me with those passive-aggressive attacks. I’ve heard of bunnies biting when threatened, but I never thought I’d witness one myself!

Ouyang Qing thought to herself as she glared at Ning Ran.

Although Nan Chen couldn’t care less about their little power play, he could see what Ning Ran was playing at.

To think that the childish “battles” between women could be this fun to watch…

The food was soon served up along with the soup.

Being a member of the upper echelons of society, Ouyang Qing had always found hotpot unbefitting of her status.

On top of that, the verbal assaults from Erbao and Ning Ran made her so mad that she didn’t have much appetite left. After eating some vegetables, she began scrolling through her phone to pass the time.

Ning Ran, on the other hand, was having a blast as hotpot was exactly what she wanted to help relieve her stress.

The fact that she was allowed to order whatever she wanted only made things even better, and she began wolfing down her food happily.

Nan Chen’s past experiences with spicy food had taught him a huge lesson regarding the risks it would bring him.

In order to avoid embarrassing himself with an upset stomach later on, Nan Chen made a dip for himself consisting of vinegar and some soy sauce.

He even added a small amount of water while no one was watching.

That way, he was able to rinse the food in it to take the edge off the spiciness and save his stomach from the abuse without embarrassing himself in front of everyone.
