Chapter 469: Chapter 471: You Eat Too_1

Because dinner hadn’t officially started, the table was laid with seeds, peanuts, oranges, and a jug of Osmanthus Brew. Of course, the wine couldn’t be drunk right away; it was to be consumed when dinner began.

Nan Feng began by peeling an orange and put a couple of segments in her mouth.

Delicious, it was so sweet, she beamed as if she had just discovered a treasure. It had been a long time since she had tasted such delectable oranges. She peeled a few more segments for Ye Ge. Seeing that Ye Ge was busy peeling peanuts, and his hands were preoccupied, she fed him an orange segment directly, "Ye Ge, taste this, it’s a very sweet orange."

Ye Ge naturally opened his mouth and tasted the orange. It was indeed sweet. However, he had finished peeling the peanuts in his hands. Seeing that Nan Feng’s hands were busy, he similarly fed her some peanuts, "Here, have some peanuts."

Naturally, Nan Feng opened her mouth and ate it.

"Woah, you two can’t behave this way," Wu Yang cried out in distress from the side: "All of us at this table are bachelors, you two...you’re pushing us to get married."

Chen Niannian also joined in the protest: "I object; the two of you can’t engage in inappropriate behaviors, such as mutual feeding, in public!"

Nan Feng happened to be sitting next to Wu Yang. Therefore, she promptly peeled an orange segment and handed it to Wu Yang: "You, have some too."

She peeled another segment for Chen Niannian: "This one is for you."

Initially, after everyone received a segment, the people’s grievances were finally appeased.

Another table nearby.

Those seated at that table were scholars yet to pass their exams and some businessmen who had made contributions to the local market. Mo Wenxuan was at that table. Besides two scholars he had met a few times, everyone else there were businessmen.

Those businessmen continuously discussed business matters aloud – what sold well, how much sales had dropped compared to the previous year. On the other hand, a few scholars were discussing the upcoming county exam questions, but Mo Wenxuan had already memorized those questions, so he didn’t feel like butting in.

Mo Wenxuan, out of habit, looked in Nan Feng’s direction and saw her feeding Ye Ge. A surge of unease rushed from his chest to his head, and then back to his chest, causing his heart to ache in pangs.

Their actions appeared so natural, not even a hint of affectation. If it weren’t for their natural familiarity, they wouldn’t be behaving so intimately; this was clearly about more than just showing off.

Later, he noticed how unreserved Nan Feng was, conversing and laughing naturally with everyone. Unlike the young ladies at some tables, when they were around others, they would incessantly blush and act coy, and their faces would flare red even when they were just speaking to a man.

Looking at the county magistrate’s daughter on the main table, she sat there solemn and silent as a bottle gourd, acting as if everyone there owed her a significant number of taels of silver.

Mo Wenxuan couldn’t help but recall the foolish and homely girl from Da Ping Village, who had been chasing after him throughout their trivial town.

Could that really be this sharp-witted Nan Feng sitting here right now?

A new wave of regret washed over Mo Wenxuan.

Song Cheng, who was sitting at the table in the middle, glanced at the time and saw that everyone had arrived, thus he stood up and delivered a speech thanking everyone for coming. He hoped everyone would enjoy their meal and drinks at the Little Night Shop. Afterward, he thanked a businessman present for sponsoring the New Year’s Eve dinner.

The sponsoring businessman was sitting right next to Mo Wenxuan. Being mentioned, he stood up and delivered a speech, expressing his gratitude to Mr. Song Cheng for his high regards, thanking everyone for giving face to him. He also hoped that everyone would enjoy their meal and drinks.
