The Strong Female Lead Versus The Most Miserable Male Lead

Chapter 95: Chapter 95 Full Belly

The chestnuts are ready!

Nian Shutong called out to everyone, “Come over and try some.”

Wang Fu’s family followed behind Nian Shutong, with his youngest daughter, Wang Xiaoxiao, tightly holding her mother’s hand, blinking uneasily.

Just as Nian Shutong approached to grab a chestnut, Fu Yunhe stopped her.

“It’s hot.”

“Eat this one.”

...

A slightly opened brown chestnut, held between Fu Yunhe’s attractive fingertips, looked like a display sample of a fine chestnut exhibit for a moment.

“So thoughtful, thanks,” joked Nian Shutong, taking the chestnut. She pinched it gently between her thumb and index finger, and with a ‘pop,’ the chestnut cracked open. @@novelbin@@

She extracted the flesh and popped it into her mouth.

Soft, sweet, with a bit of stickiness.

“Not bad, quite successful. You should try it too, see how much we should sell them for,” Nian Shutong told Fu Yunhe, then turned to Wang Fu’s family behind her and said, “Help yourselves, don’t be shy.”

“I’ve already said, food and shelter are included, and although there’s no wage for now, I will definitely make sure you’re well-fed.”

“Thank you,” Wang Fu first bowed to express his gratitude, and then his children and wife followed suit, each stepping forward to take a chestnut.

Wang Fu’s family had not yet tasted them when Ha Ha had already eaten over twenty.

And he was eating them shell and all.

Fu Yunhe couldn’t bear to watch any longer, stepped forward, and grabbed Ha Ha’s arm, saying, “They taste better without the shell.”

Ha Ha first looked at Fu Yunhe’s hand with disgust, shook his own arm and said:

“My body is only for the Commander to touch.”

At his words, Fu Yunhe’s retracted arm hung in mid-air, with each hair on it standing on end – not out of fear, but a shudder of revulsion.

What would the others eating chestnuts think of that remark?

A chestnut nearly got stuck in Nian Shutong’s throat; she fortunately managed to swallow it. For the first time, she asked with a bit of a gossiping tone, “Ha Ha, are you and your Commander really that close?”

At the mention of the Commander, Ha Ha’s eyes shone like the starry sea, bright and surging.

“Of course! The Commander feeds me, bathes me, massages me, and cuddles me to sleep. It’s very comfortable.”

Nian Shutong’s inquisitive gaze nodded somewhat knowingly, so that’s the nature of your relationship!

Fu Yunhe’s chest tightened with a breath he wanted to explode.

You fool, Ha Ha, that was during your juvenile period when you were still a wolf cub!

But how was he supposed to explain that?

Fu Yunhe could only turn his sorrow into an appetite, eating chestnuts. As for Ha Ha, you might as well eat the shells!

Aside from the Wang family, everyone else had eaten plenty.

Nian Shutong didn’t insist; she let everyone sign the contracts and then went off to rest.

However, she packed up a small basin of caramelized chestnuts, steamed a pot of rice and egg custard, and found some clean clothes to deliver to them.

Wang Fu looked at the steaming food and clean clothes in front of him and felt his uneasy heart settle.

It was enough to have a full stomach, a full stomach was good.

And it was food they had never tasted before, rumored to be very expensive.

“Eat up, you’ll have three meals a day, guaranteed to fill you up.”

“Thank you, thank you,” the Wang family repeated their thanks as Nian Shutong waved her hand and turned to leave.

After she left, Fu Yunhe got in touch with the Yan Family, ready to sign the contract.

Meanwhile, at the Yan Family, the Family Head, Old Man Yan Yuan, had a huge blister on his lips, which made him unable to eat.

Their family had always been honest salt handlers, but salt was not profitable, their status low, just scraping by.

Consequently, they didn’t resort to deep schemes but were very straightforward. If Fu Yunhe said to wait, they really did wait.

They were supposed to sign the contract, but the waiting stretched to several days. Afraid of any changes and yet not daring to rush, Yan Yuan was frustrated and anxious to the point of getting a fever.

“Dad, your Light Computer is ringing!”
