The aroma of food floated into the carriage, and Xia Luotong couldn't help but sniff it, and then his eyes lit up, revealing a look of longing on his face.
Wu Zechen knew from her look that she was hungry. Thinking about it, it was already dinner time. She had not eaten much all morning, so she must be hungry.
In recent days, he has paid more and more attention to her, and has learned more about some of her situations. The first is her greedy temperament, which has left an even deeper impression on her.
When I eat, I have no control over it, and it is common for me to eat until I am full. As a result, I often make my stomach feel uncomfortable, and I will do it again next time. I simply don’t have the self-knowledge of a doctor.
What made Wu Zechen most helpless was that this woman was actually quite proud of her greedy taste. If she hadn't been unable to cook, she might not be a doctor now, but a cook.
"Are you hungry? Want to eat?" Wu Zechen asked involuntarily, with a hint of tenderness in his tone that he was not even aware of.
Xia Luotong nodded after hearing this. She didn't feel it when she first left the palace. Now the carriage came to the street and various aromas filled the air. She suddenly felt hungry and her chest was pressed against her back.
"Going to a restaurant for dinner?" Wu Zechen rarely asked for her opinion. Normally, he made the final decision.
"No, I just want to eat the sour bamboo shoot noodles on the side!" Xia Luotong said with a firm face and persistent eyes.
At this time, the carriage had stopped on the side of the road, and the aroma of sour bamboo shoots lingered around. There must be such a vendor nearby.
"Sour bamboo shoots?" Wu Zechen couldn't help but frown slightly after hearing this, and then he remembered something and said, "I heard from Jin Yu that your stomach is not good and you shouldn't eat sour bamboo shoots. Can you eat something else?"
When Xia Luotong heard this, he immediately became unhappy. He pursed his red lips and said, "I don't eat bamboo shoots. I just want the taste of sour bamboo shoot soup. Just thinking about it makes me drool!"
Wu Zechen had never seen Xia Luotong look like a greedy cat now. He was helpless and a little surprised at the moment. He didn't expect that she would be so full of life when she was not in front of him.
Before, she always looked distant when she was in front of him. He thought that was her temperament, but he didn't expect that it was just for him?
He couldn't tell whether the faint feeling in his heart was loss or something else, but he suddenly wanted to see every side of her, see the real her, and show her unreservedly in front of him.
"Will you be fine if you drink soup?" Wu Zechen looked at her suspiciously.
With how greedy she was, he couldn't help but think about the possibility that she was fooling around.
"Yes, yes!" Xia Luotong nodded repeatedly, "It's okay to drink the soup, as long as you don't eat the sour bamboo shoots. I've eaten it several times before, and there's no problem with my health at all!"
These words really did not deceive him. If she were not still in Prince An's car at this time, with spies from many forces watching, she would not say more to him here, and just get out of the car and eat!
Wu Zechen looked at her anxious look and was about to throw herself out of the car, and he actually felt like laughing. At that moment, he couldn't help but be stunned. He suppressed the doubts in his heart, nodded and gave orders, and the guards immediately came. Went to buy.
Looking at Xia Luotong who kept looking outside, he paused, and then said calmly: "Were you worried that they would expose you when you were in the main hall before?"
Xia Luotong was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then realized who Wu Zechen was referring to by "them".
"Don't worry, if they wanted to find out about me, they would have done it long ago, not to mention..." Xia Luotong said with a warm smile, "We are friends, and people who can be regarded as friends by me, There is still at least this basic level of trust.”
Such a warm smile made Wu Zechen feel his eyes dazzling.
The trust in that smile and words made him feel a little displeased. He knew very well that it was something that they didn't have between them at the moment...
But the displeasure quickly dissipated, because it was the trust she had in her friends, and she regarded them as friends...
Before I could think about the abnormality of my thoughts, I heard her continue: "If I really feel that they are not reliable, I will definitely tell you before I act, so don't worry."
Hearing what she said, Wu Zechen's mood suddenly improved a lot. Although he knew that this might just be because of his responsibility for the cooperative relationship, it still made him feel a little happy.
"Don't tell them what happens next." Wu Zechen subconsciously wanted to separate those men from her, and suddenly even didn't want them to have too much contact.
Xia Luotong didn't think too much about it, just thinking that he was doing it for the smoothness and confidentiality of the follow-up plan. Although the matter regarding Xia Mansion seemed to be just her own personal grudge, she knew that it must also be related to some of his arrangements. and plans, even though he didn't tell her explicitly, she knew very well in her heart that he hoped she could mess up the Xia Mansion and even the Li Mansion.
From this point of view, the two of them are allies in the same camp.
"Don't worry, this is our business and has nothing to do with them. I won't tell them, and I won't let them get involved in these things." Xia Luotong gave Wu Zechen a positive answer.
In fact, Wu Zechen doesn't need to say anything, she will not involve them in her grudges. She regards them as friends, that is, a pure friendship, without any interest or use. She does not intend to rely on them. forces, let alone implicate them.
She could take revenge herself. If she didn't want those people to end too happily, she could have let them pass away without anyone noticing.
Wu Zechen could probably guess Xia Luotong's thoughts. Although it was not the reason he expected, it still satisfied him.
"You can talk to me if you need anything in the future." Wu Zechen blurted out subconsciously. He intuitively felt that if he didn't have the same purpose as her, he would be excluded by her, which was something he didn't want to happen.
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he was so unlike himself before, Wu Zechen paused for a moment, and felt something in his heart.
He treats her really differently...
He does not reject her approach or contact, his eyes always move around her involuntarily, hoping that he can participate in everything she does...
Maybe he has a crush on her?
But is this good impression because he likes her, or is it simply because of the detoxification and life-saving grace?
He was a little unsure for a moment, hesitant...
He had thought before that he was attracted to Liu Yingxue and had a good impression of Liu Yingxue, but later it was proved that this was not the case and he did not want to develop further with her.
So, what about this time?
