Chapter 768: Food Made by the Toad

Will not abandon her?

Zhuang Nainai looked down and said slowly, “I understand.”

Lin Xi’er nodded. “It’s good that you understand. You should just stay here and recuperate. Mi Nuo can go to jail for you.”

After saying this, she immediately realized she had said something wrong. “Not for you! You didn’t push your mother-in-law in the first place! This Mi Nuo is getting the punishment she deserves.”

Zhuang Nainai raised her head and looked at her. “Do you think Mi Nuo will go to jail?”

Lin Xi’er was puzzled. “Why not?”

Zhuang Nainai’s lips curled up and a bitter smile spread across her face. How was that possible?

Even if she were convicted, she wouldn’t go to jail. Furthermore, she was Mrs. Si now. How could she go to jail? At most, she would be detained for a few days. No. If they hired a lawyer, she would be able to get out on that very day.

But so what if she told Lin Xi’er all these things?

She couldn’t read Si Zhengting’s mind, but she believed in Si Zhengting’s choices. However... “Why can’t I be with my children?”

Upon saying this, she placed her hand on her stomach. Her gaze was filled with helplessness and frustration.

She had endured the long pregnancy painstakingly. Every day, she was looking forward to seeing them and fantasizing about who the babies would resemble. But now, why couldn’t she even see her babies?

As soon as she finished speaking, the man who was standing by the kitchen door froze slightly.

Anguish flashed across his eyes suddenly. Then, he lowered his head quickly before entering the kitchen again with a knife in his hand.

Around one hour later, a few pregnancy dishes were served.

He managed to make the dishes, which were supposed to be bland and tasteless, extremely delicious. The addition of mushrooms seemed to have boosted the umami flavor of the dishes. Zhuang Nainai’s eyes lit up after she had a bite. She could not help but raise her head and look at Xu Dazhi with twinkling eyes. “Xu Dazhi, I didn’t expect you to be able to whip up such delicious food. It’s a pity that you aren’t a chef.”

Upon hearing her praise, Xu Dazhi looked down bashfully and stared at the tip of his shoes uneasily. Thereafter, he turned around and walked toward the living room.

As Zhuang Nainai still could not leave the bed, she got a bed table to place her food on. She could have her meal just by sitting up.

While Zhuang Nainai was having her meal in the bedroom, the rest of them were hovering near the bedroom door.

Looking at Zhuang Nainai’s food, Zuo Yiyi could not help but roll her eyes and look at Xu Dazhi unhappily. “Hey, why are you cooking only for her? What about us? Do you expect us to starve?”

Xu Dazhi glanced at Su Yanbin before lowering his head and answering her rather nonchalantly, “Order takeout.”

Zuo Yiyi cursed under her breath immediately, “The difference in treatment is way too stark!”

His voice was very husky, as if there was something stuck in his throat. Xu Dazhi said in a moderate speed, “I think you wouldn’t like food that is cooked by a toad.”

Zuo Yiyi: “...!!!!”

When Zhuang Nainai, who was eating in the room, heard this conversation, she almost spat out the soup in her mouth!

Why was Xu Dazhi so similar to Si Zhengting when it came to bearing grudges?!

As soon as Zhuang Nainai thought of this, she shook her head instantly. Why did she compare Xu Dazhi to Si Zhengting again out of nowhere?

In the living room, Zuo Yiyi was fuming after hearing what he said. But she couldn’t possibly deny what she had said, could she?

Indignant, she turned around and plopped down on the couch. Zuo Yiyi stared at Xu Dazhi spitefully before rolling her eyes. Suddenly, she scoffed...
