The Birth Of A Villainess

Chapter 307 - A Frightening Man (2)

"Oh, you're here – " Qu Xing Xu said as soon as he turned around after hearing the footfalls from behind him. However, he paused in action as his eyes landed on the addition of three adult men who was standing next to Lin Xiaofei.

With a frown, he watched the three approach the table and said, "Why are you here?"

"Is that something you should first say to your brothers who came after missing you?"

Jiang Sheng had a helpless look as Qu Xing Xu's eyes went past the others and landed on his figure.

With his hands raised as though he was raising a white flag of surrender, Jiang Sheng guiltily looked away. Nothing could get past Qu Xing Xu and that was the same when he saw this three sworn brothers of his. He could somewhat guess what they have come.

Ni Zixuan took a step back, sweat dripping down the lower part of his back as he didn't want to be shot in the crossfire between Jiang Sheng and Qu Xing Xu. On the other hand, Qi Yandi threw an oblivious glance at the two and jumped straight to feast on the delicious plates of food that was laid on top of the table.

"This looks delicious! Can I have some?" Qi Yandi raised his head to look at Lin Xiaofei who was staring at Jiang Sheng and Qu Xing Xu and wondering what was going on with the two.

Hearing him, she looked at where Qi Yandi was already seated and nodded.

"Yes, you can."

Ignoring the two still occupied in their staring battle, Lin Xiaofei sat herself comfortably at the table. Soon, the sounds of porcelain clattering and chopsticks hitting the plates filled the garden.

"Qu Xing Xu, let the guest take a sit. They must be hungry. It is rude to let them stand too long in front of the meal." Lin Xiaofei grew tired at the two who was not moving and silently clashing against each other. She looked at Ni Zixuan, who was trying hard not to be noticed by the two and get caught in their clash, and she offered him the seat next to her.

Ni Zixuan smiled gratefully at her offer and walked to the stone chair she offered. However, just as he was about to lower his butt to the chair, the scruff of his collar was picked up and when he looked behind him, he saw Qu Xing Xu coldly glaring at him.

Reluctantly and like an abandoned puppy, Ni Zixuan scoot over to the next stone chair and sat there after he was thrown there by Qu Xing Xu.

Qu Xing Xu sat down next to Lin Xiaofei and laughed lightly as he said to her, "Already looking for a replacement?"

Lin Xiaofei's chopsticks paused in mid-air. She threw him a glare and retorted, "Behave or I will do just as you said."

Lin Xiaofei moved her hands and started to fill her mouth with the slice of meat that she pinched in her chopsticks and saw Qi Yandi was staring at her with widened eyes.

Lin Xiaofei scowled. An itching sensation enveloped her hand as she recalled that they were not alone and she had just reprimanded Qu Xing Xu in front of his sworn brothers. Besides that, she wasn't in the right mood to enjoy lunch because of the sour taste of realization that she knew little about her husband.

Hence, she was careless when she spoke to Qu Xing Xu.

Lin Xiaofei fisted her hands and gripped the chopstick tightly.

"Haha…"

Qu Xing Xu playfully laughed as he was amused by her reaction. Then, seeing that she was uncomfortable with the gawking of the three men, he sent them another warning glance before he raised his chopsticks and picked a few dishes before putting them on Lin Xiaofei's bowl.

"You should eat more. You'll need it for later." Qu Xing Xu teased her after putting a slice of eel in her bowl.

"Ahem!"

Qi Yandi, who was recently and happily gobbling his food, choked on his food and hurriedly reached for a cup of water. No one helped him and just when he was about to wheeze, he finally stood up and reached for the pot of water and directly poured it in his mouth.

The maids that was standing in the corner and quietly observing their masters gasped at the barbarian actions that Qi Yandi displayed in front of everyone. This was their first time that someone actually dared to act crudely in front of them.

They've seen common people and some beggars that begged in the streets who didn't have the luxury to get to an etiquette class and didn't have manners act in this way, but they never witnessed a man dressed as a nobleman act like this.

Thus, their shock was understandable and faultless.

Qi Yandi didn't seem to care about the strangeness that passed in the air and quicky sat down as soon as he quenched his thirst and the painful feeling of choking subsided. He continued to gobble some more food.

Bai Lu and Su Tang glanced worriedly at Lin Xiaofei and sighed when she remained nonchalant after Qi Yandi's actions. They both knew that the past Lin Xiaofei was extremely strict with her behaviors and was even more to the people who hangs out with her.

The past Lin Xiaofei might have been rude and fearless, but she cared so much about her manners. And ever since Xiaofei possessed this body, her strictness to her actions increased.

It wasn't only the two maids who glanced at Lin Xiaofei's face. Ni Zixuan, Qi Yandi, and Jiang Sheng, even Qu Xing Xu, discreetly observed her. But they didn't see any fluctuations in her eyes or changes in the expressions on her face.

'Why are they looking at me?'

Lin Xiaofei thought in her mind in annoyance.

"Is there something wrong?"

Finally, Lin Xiaofei couldn't keep quiet and handle eyes that was looking at her.
