Chapter 148 - Go Pour Me a Cup of Coffee!
She could not do anything because Shi Nuannuan’s grandfather held a higher status than her grandfather. Otherwise, she would not have just kept quiet after being treated like that!
But relatively, although Shi Nuannuan’s grandfather was more powerful, Shi Yuting still needed the Tengtang family’s support to take over the presidency firmly. This vote was very important!
It was because of this, Shi Le wanted to ally with the Tengtang family through marriage.
Tengtang Xi initially did want her marriage to be bound by her family background. However, she was full of joy when she found out that her husband-to-be was Shi Yuting.
Firstly, it was because of this man. Secondly, it was because Shi Yuting would become the most authoritative man in the country. And she wanted to be the first lady!
Her grandfather once told her, ‘A lack of forbearance upsets great plans’.
Tengtang Xi picked up her chopsticks and ate the dinner slowly without any fuss.
She then looked at Zhong Shenghao on the opposite side with her black eyes.
“When will he wake up?”
Zhong Shenghao was eating dinner. He raised his head and looked at her when he heard the words. “I am not sure yet.”
“Aren’t you a doctor? Why are you unsure?”
It might seem like a normal sentence. However, Zhong Shenghao was not deaf. He could still hear the irony in it.
No one had dared to defame his medical skills after he had become a doctor!
He put down his bowl and chopsticks. This ‘princess’ from the Tengtang family was really so arrogant!
However, Zhong Shenghao was not angry, but instead, he chuckled. “How should I put it? Just like when you are sleeping, how would I know when you are gonna wake up tomorrow morning?”
Tengtang Xi was speechless as soon as he spoke.
This man was being sarcastic at her!
Shi Nuannuan on the side could not help but chuckle. She then signaled Zhong Shenghao by winking her eye, giving him big praise for his move!
Tengtang Xi could not say anything. She was speechless and had to lower her head to eat the dinner sullenly!
She had always been spoiled since she was young. She felt useless and was angry that she was being treated like this. She suddenly put down her chopsticks. She then got up and walked toward the living room.
There were no dishes that she liked to eat anyway. She better not eat then!
“You, go pour me a cup of coffee!”
She pointed to Zuo Weiyi and said as she walked.
Zuo Weiyi paused while watching her back as she walked toward the living room. She could not help but turn and glance at Nuannuan.
She seemed to ask her with her eyes. “Should I go?”
Shi Nuannuan turned her head and glanced at Tengtang Xi’s back. She then signaled with her eyes. “Just go!”
Zuo Weiyi pursed her lips and nodded. She then walked to the bar beside the wine rack. She went to the living room after making a cup of coffee.
“Your coffee.”
Tengtang Xi was sitting elegantly on the sofa. She glanced at the coffee on the table. She took a sip of it.
“Umm…” Tengtang Xi immediately spat it out before she even swallowed the coffee. She then pointed angrily at Zuo Weiyi and yelled. “It’s so bitter. Don’t you know how to add sugar in it?!”
Zuo Weiyi was a little stunned when Tengtang Xi shouted at her.
She was used to brewing coffee for Shi Yuting. Shi Yuting did not like to add sugar in his coffee. So, she had never brewed sugared coffee.
Crack!
Tengtang Xi threw the cup on the ground before waiting for Zuo Weiyi to speak. “Clean it up and make another one for me again!”
Zuo Weiyi recovered from her thoughts when she heard the sudden noise. She knew that she was a maid now.
