Chapter 231: Chapter 231 I’m hungry... I want to drink water..._1

He Tiantian smiled, Qi Xiaoyan was spot on.

She had very high caloric needs at the moment, so eating well every meal was crucial to ensuring that her body had enough energy. It wasn’t for anything else, but so that her body could be in tip-top shape each month, and she could provide the Sacred Blood needed for the Snake King’s cultivation.

"I’m over here!" He Tiantian walked over. After all, she had already taken the Little Rotating Turtle, so there was no need to stay there.

"Oh, Sister Tiantian, you’re here!" said Qi Xiaoyan, "Let’s go, it’s time for dinner. We couldn’t find you and were worried, so we came out to look for you."

"It’s alright, I’m a grown-up, what could happen to me!" laughed He Tiantian, "Let’s go, I’m hungry too."

Seeing that He Tiantian had been found, Niu Dajun’s heart was filled with joy, and he no longer needed to blame himself.

Qi Xiaoyan, holding He Tiantian’s hand, asked, "Sister Tiantian, what were you doing here?"

"I just thought this little park was nice, so I came for a walk. I saw a kitten and played with it for a while," explained He Tiantian. Even though Qi Xiaoyan was her best friend, she wouldn’t tell her this secret.

She hadn’t told her parents!

Nor had she told Huo Yingjie.

No one else knew, this was her secret alone.

"Oh, I thought you got lost," said Qi Xiaoyan. "Sister Lili is treating us to dinner today. She made your favorite, big meat wontons. They are already prepared, just waiting for you to come and then they’ll go into the pot."

"That’s great, those are my favorite," said He Tiantian with a smile, following Qi Xiaoyan and Niu Dajun back to Taoyuan Hotel.

When Niu Lili saw them coming, she asked the chefs in the back to hurry up and cook the wontons, and had them served in the dining room for them to eat, as she still had to go out and be busy.

When Niu Lili finished being busy, she came over to talk and joke with Qi Xiaoyan and He Tiantian.

Niu Lili was beaming with energy, and excitement sparkled in her eyes.

Taking the opportunity, He Tiantian covertly looked at Niu Lili and asked in a low voice, blinking, "How are things going on your end?"

Niu Lili smirked and said, "Already got to talking."

Qi Rongjun felt a bit down and awkward after he learned from his brother that Guo Cuicui had taken a liking to someone else, but he wasn’t too upset. Now that things had come to this, it was already the best outcome, and he wasn’t angry anymore.

When he received Niu Lili’s letter, Qi Rongjun was a bit surprised. Having seen her once, he had a deep impression of the tall, bright-eyed woman. Almost involuntarily, he ended up replying to Niu Lili’s letter.

Niu Lili talked about interesting things at the hotel, while Qi Rongjun shared amusing incidents from his workplace. Back and forth, their correspondence grew more frequent.

"Hehe, congratulations," He Tiantian said with her hands clasped together. If a man wasn’t interested in a woman, he generally wouldn’t reply to her letters. And even if he did, it would be out of courtesy and he wouldn’t write back too much.

Niu Lili, smiling, said, "Thanks to you, too. By the way, I heard Guo Cuicui has already gotten engaged to Qin Hai."

"Ah?" He Tiantian was taken aback, "That was quick. Isn’t she getting what she wanted then?"

"Yeah, it just looked a bit ugly," Niu Lili said, "That Qin Hai is no good. He was playing around with Guo Cuicui, took advantage of her, and then refused to acknowledge it after benefiting from her. But Guo Cuicui isn’t easy either; she was on guard against Qin Hai. When he started to distance himself, she directly brought the bedsheets to Qin Hai’s home. If he didn’t agree, she threatened to accuse him of rape."

"Bedsheets?" He Tiantian blinked in surprise, "What’s the bedsheets for?"

Seeing He Tiantian’s puzzled look, Niu Lili blushed and chided, "You little rascal, if you don’t know then don’t ask. Anyway, that had evidence of Qin Hai taking advantage on it."

Hearing this, He Tiantian suddenly understood—it was that thing!

A woman’s lost innocence, a man’s that thing—this Guo Cuicui was something else!

In a previous life, she had pressed Village Chief Qi’s family down hard.

In this life, she was causing a huge stir!

Putting aside Guo Cuicui’s character flaws, He Tiantian actually quite admired her in certain regards!

Valuing one’s life!

Daring to love and hate!

The stance of making your whole family miserable if you don’t let me be, is not something everyone can pull off!

"To be honest, Guo Cuicui is pretty amazing," said He Tiantian in admiration. "Not your average person can compare."

Niu Lili nodded and said, "She is amazing. Willing to risk everything, daring enough to knock the emperor off the horse. Guo Cuicui, having lost her virginity, if she hadn’t thrown caution to the wind, what could she have done with her life! But meeting a guy like Qin Hai, only someone like Guo Cuicui could handle him. Girls with softer personalities would probably have committed suicide by jumping into the river."

Upon hearing suicide by jumping into the river, He Tiantian immediately thought of Qi Xiaoyan.
