After Rebirth, My Fiancé Helps Me Avenge the Wicked Scum

Chapter 441 Blushing and Heart Racing
Despite being her first time in a hotel, Jiang Huaiyu controlled herself not to look around like a clueless country bumpkin.
Even though she originally was a country girl, having moved into the town with her father less than two years ago, she already considered herself a city dweller, no longer speaking in her local dialect but adopting the official language of the urbanites.
“Miss Jiang, please order the dishes. Feel free to order anything you like,” Xie Hongjun said with a smile while looking at Jiang Huaiyu.
Being stared at by a handsome guy made Jiang Huaiyu’s heart pound intensely.
“I’ll let Brother Xie decide; I’m not picky and can eat anything.”
“A girl shouldn’t be too casual,” Xie Hongjun said meaningfully.
Jiang Huaiyu’s face turned bright red: How could this man flirt so casually?
“I’m only casual about food.”
However, Xie Hongjun was quite satisfied, knowing that the girl understood the double meaning behind his words.
He smiled: “I was also talking about food. Girls should eat things that are nourishing for the body, especially for blood nourishment.
How about this, we each choose two dishes. I’ll order a steamed pigeon and a braised pig trotter. The steamed pigeon is great for nourishing the blood, especially suitable for girls, and the braised pig trotter has beautifying effects. The remaining two dishes are up to you to pick.”
Jiang Huaiyu became even more embarrassed; surely, his mention of nourishing blood wasn’t implying that, right?
And when he talked about the pigeon, why did he glance at her chest? Could it be, he’s taken a liking to me?
Her face heated up. Even her chest, which he had looked over, grew warm.
She quickly glanced at Xie Hongjun: “There are only two of us, two dishes will be enough.”
Seeing her insistence on not ordering, Xie Hongjun went ahead and ordered two more dishes: a winter melon and bamboo fungus soup, and a braised carp.
During the meal, Xie Hongjun pointed at the bamboo fungus and said, “This bamboo fungus is pretty, isn’t it? It also has another name called Bamboo Maiden.
When they first sprout, they wear a cap and are dressed in a sheer skirt, their tender stems looking like legs, from afar it looks just like a slender young lady, just like Miss Jiang.”
Jiang Huaiyu didn’t understand, how could she be like a Bamboo Maiden?
Suddenly, Xie Hongjun leaned close to her and whispered in her ear: “The Bamboo Maiden is very delicious.”
Jiang Huaiyu’s entire body heated up; he said she resembled a Bamboo Maiden and that the Bamboo Maiden was delicious… was he indicating he wanted to ‘eat’ her?
Throughout the meal, Xie Hongjun managed to make Jiang Huaiyu’s face blush and heart race, and at the same time, extracted all information she knew – what should and shouldn’t be said – related to Jiang Mengyu.
After sorting through it, Xie Hongjun obtained the following useful information:
Jiang Mengyu was bought by Madam Jiang Li Chunhua from her biological father Lin Hai.
Lin Hai favored sons over daughters, so once she was born, while her birth mother Leng Xiangyu was still unconscious, he swapped her with a son he had with a widow outside and then sold Jiang Mengyu to Li Chunhua.
The Jiang Family treated Jiang Mengyu essentially as a servant, often left her hungry, and didn’t allow her to attend school before the age of ten.
But Jiang Mengyu was very smart, completing the curriculum of elementary school, middle school, and high school in just six years, and last year, she was admitted to Beijing Normal University. However, she was schemed against by Madam Jiang who sold her to a human trafficker, letting Jiang Huaiyu take her place at the university.
Yet, Jiang Mengyu was also tough, managing to leap off a cliff to survive and was saved by Gu Dongxing, becoming his fiancée.
She went to Beijing to claim back Jiang Huaiyu’s university identity but did not continue with her university studies. Instead, she came back to finish high school, aiming to re-enter the entrance exam this year.
