217 Spoiled Little Girl! (1/2)
”What the hell happened? Why are you so flustered?”
Xiaoyao quickly stopped the fight with Chen. She started to put on a serious look. Everyone knew that Xiaoyao had put a lot of effort in this charity dinner. Thus, she will not allow anything to go wrong tonight.
”Kitchen…All the ingredients that we prepared earlier on have been sabotaged by someone!” The male worker said nervously.
”WHAT?!”
Xiaoyao’s face sank after she heard the news. She rushed to the kitchen immediately.
”It’s just some ingredients. What’s so big deal about it? We can just purchase them from the market, right?” Chen shrugged. He had no idea why Xiaoyao is so anxious about it.
”You have no idea…Those ingredients are not those ordinary ingredients that we can find in the wet market!”
The male worker’s face belonged to a corpse. He said worryingly, ”Australia lobster, truffle from France, caviar, Kobe beef…All these ingredients were imported by air…It’s impossible to acquire them in Green Vine City!”
”Damn! Those are good stuff! Xiaoyao is such a prodigal girl! She shouldn’t have spent the money for charity on all these high-class ingredients! I should spank her later!” Chen pursed his lips and said.
”You have blamed her wrongly.”
The male worker quickly explained, ”Ms. Xiaoyao bought all these ingredients with her own savings. She did not touch the charity money at all!”
”I see…”
Chen was shocked, He knew that he had wronged Xiaoyao. He started to feel guilty when he thought of the effort that Xiaoyao had put in this charity dinner.
”Where is the kitchen? Lead the way…” Chen squinted. He started to get serious as well. It was a mess when he got to the kitchen. All the expensive ingredients were completely destroyed. They were all over the floor, stepped by someone. Xiaoyao was biting her lips angrily. Even her knuckles had started to turn pale due to the hard squeezing. Her face was filled with sadness and worry. She was sad because all her effort was all wasted. And, she was now worrying about where to get all these ingredients before the charity dinner starts. Without the ingredients, she would have to call the dinner off. Also, the quality of the dinner will drop greatly if she decides to buy some other ingredients to replace all these expensive ingredients.
”Don’t be sad…It’s not really a big deal…” Chen walked to Xiaoyao and consoled her.
”It’s easy for you to say! What are we going to do with our charity dinner now?!” Xiaoyao frowned and her eyes started to get teary. This disaster had a huge impact on her heart because God-knows how much time and money she had taken to prepare all these ingredients.
”Pumpkin, you said it yourself that this is our charity dinner. I think it’s time for you to sit back and relax. Just leave the rest for me to solve!” Chen lifted up his hand and brushed Xiaoyao’s hair.
”Eh?”
Xiaoyao felt different this time. She actually felt that she could totally rely on Chen to solve everything. She was even tempted to lean her head on Chen’s shoulder. Maybe, she really can leave everything to Chen. With this thought, all her stress was gone. She realized that her princess hairstyle was completely messed up by Chen when she finally calmed down. The way Chen brushed her hair is not a thing that a normal friend would do. Her face turned red immediately.
”Don’t mess up my hair! It took a long time for me to set it right!”
Xiaoyao pushed away Chen’s hand gently. Then, she asked, with her face blushing, ”How are you planning to deal with this problem?”
”First, we need to catch the person who is responsible for this sabotage! Beat him up!” Chen raised his eyebrows and said.
”It’s not as simple as you think…I have talked to the security guard just now. He told me that he had not seen any suspicious individuals coming in just now. Also, the door was locked as well!” Xiaoyao said.
