Seeing her elegantly chewing her food, Zhao Yuanzhen suddenly had an epiphany, stood up, and was filled with indignation!
"You guys were snacking in the kitchen! Without me!"
She hurried to the kitchen, and upon seeing this, everyone quickly got up to follow. Zhao Yuanzhen grabbed Lin Ning and repeatedly asked:
"What tasty food are you hiding in the kitchen?"
Lin Ning was also bewildered—from a while ago everyone just came to me one by one to make awkward conversation, and now Sister Zhao is accusing me of hoarding food... Where did I hide anything? Aren't all the dishes I'm going to cook laid out on the counter?
"I didn't hide anything," she honestly responded.
"Liar!" Zhao Yuanzhen was livid, "Clearly you invited them one by one to sneak into the kitchen to eat, intentionally not calling me!"
"Not at all," Su Yunjin took the lead in explaining, "I just went to the kitchen to chat with Ningning."
"Right," Lin Ning was truly clueless and hastily agreed.
