Chapter 18.1: Make me kneel? Who does he think he is?!

“Don’t just think about others. You’re exhausted too; eat more.”

“Okay.”

A big smile blossomed on Su Qingning’s fair face, even more dazzling than the midday sun.

It made Xiao Huaishuo’s heart tremble, nearly causing him to drop the lamb chop.

Su Qingning hurriedly took it, noticing the faint flush on Xiao Huaishuo’s earlobes, and couldn’t help but laugh inside.

Hahaha, the contrast between the God of War and a pure-hearted young man is simply adorable!

More of this, I love it!

While the Xiao family was enjoying themselves, the Su family was a pitiful sight.

The rations provided by the Shen family were already limited, and Su Bingsheng forced a portion to be given to a few favored concubines and illegitimate children.

Even after distributing all the food, it was barely enough for everyone to eat half-full.

The other unfavored concubines and servants who came along were both poor and hungry, only able to eat the free black buns.

Having been thirsty all day, their throats burned painfully.

With no food and lacking strength to continue, they could only endure the intense pain in their throats, swallowing the hard buns that felt like stones.

Su Bingsheng and Su Chengzhi lay sprawled on the ground, groaning in pain from their new and old injuries.

They complained about the heavens, the earth, and others, never considering their own faults.

The only consolation was that the two of them had eaten Shen’s buns for lunch.

Watching the people around them gnawing on their buns made them feel a little better.

Just when they wanted to see how miserable Su Qingning, that little brat, was living to amuse themselves, they noticed Su Qingning happily eating a meat bun, looking thoroughly satisfied.

The Su father and son immediately felt green with envy, and their previously unhungry stomachs began to rumble.

Su Chengzhi often bullied Su Qingning in the government office, and now he showed no restraint. Wobbling over with his plump figure, he approached her.

“Little brat, give me the meat bun in your hand!”

Goodness! Even professional robbers aren’t this arrogant!

Before Su Qingning could react, she saw Xiao Huaishuo’s finger twitch.
