Chapter 1049: Three Three

Therefore, at this moment, the Wan Family is quite cautious in their actions.

If Wang Zicheng dares to target Xia Chuyi, the consequences aren’t something ordinary people can bear.

At this time, Wang Zicheng nudged Xie Junping with his hand and said, "What are you thinking? How could I be that kind of person!"

"I’m just a bit jealous. Look at Huo Shiqian, so serious, yet he managed to find a wife," Wang Zicheng glanced at Jiang Fengqi, somewhat sourly, "While someone as young and amiable as I can’t seem to win anyone over."

Hearing this, Xie Junping understood what he meant.

"Alright, stop complaining. Proximity gives advantage," Xie Junping said, "You’re already here; you’re bound to succeed."

Wang Zicheng giggled and said, "Thanks for the good words!"

Nearby, Jiang Fengqi and Xia Chuyi hadn’t heard their conversation.

At this moment, Jiang Fengqi noticed the ingredients Xia Chuyi was carrying and curiously asked, "Whoa, why did you buy so many supplies?"

Hearing this, Xia Chuyi raised her hand, letting Jiang Fengqi see clearly what she was holding.

Then she pointed towards Xie Junping and said to Jiang Fengqi, "We’ve prepared these things to go back to the apartment and cook ourselves."

"Cooking? Making Chinese food?" Jiang Fengqi asked joyfully.

"Yeah," Xia Chuyi laughed, "That’s why, coming early isn’t as good as coming at the right time. Senior Sister Jiang, you’re in for a treat today."

Upon hearing this, even Jiang Fengqi couldn’t help but laugh and said, "I’ve long heard from Shuqin that Chuyi, your cooking is excellent..."

"So today, since I’ve caught you, I must shamelessly join you for a meal!" Jiang Fengqi said, "I’ll pay for the meal later!"

"What money?" Xia Chuyi shook her head and said, "This meal is on me."

These words were meant for Jiang Fengqi and also for Chen Miao.

Jiang Fengqi was her guest, and Xia Chuyi certainly wouldn’t have Jiang Fengqi pay.

"Then I’ll help out!" Chen Miao evidently understood Xia Chuyi’s meaning and quickly said, "I’ll also wash the dishes and utensils in the end!"

Xia Chuyi didn’t refuse.

Because she knew if she declined, Chen Miao would probably feel awkward.

Then, the group laughed and chatted as they headed to the apartment.

Along the way, Jiang Fengqi asked Xia Chuyi many questions about everyday life.

After learning that Xia Chuyi basically solved all the problems by herself.

Jiang Fengqi sighed and said, "You’re much stronger than I was back then. At that time..."

"Forget it, no need to say more. Despite all the hardships, I’ve made it through," Jiang Fengqi said, shaking her head.

Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi didn’t say anything.

Even with a good family background, being abroad, especially in a country more prosperous than your own and fraught with discrimination, the hardships—only those who’ve been through them truly understand.

The group soon arrived at the apartment.

As soon as the door sounded, knowing Xia Chuyi and the others were back, Chen Chen, who lived on the first floor, darted out.

"How was it, how was it? How’s the Chinese food in Chinatown?" Before fully coming inside, Chen Chen excitedly asked, "Is it expensive? How much was it? Should I save more..."

Before finishing her words, Chen Chen saw Jiang Fengqi and Wang Zicheng.

"And this is..." Chen Chen asked confusedly.

"Jiang Fengqi, Wang Zicheng," upon hearing, Xie Junping pointed at the two and introduced, "Both are international students."

"Among them, this is Senior Sister Jiang Fengqi from Kyoto University, Xia Chuyi’s direct senior," Xie Junping said.

Being all international students and one from Kyoto University, Chen Chen quickly said, "Pleasure to meet you, welcome welcome!"
