I wanted to go have a look, but when Nan Yi flew into a rage, I didn’t dare to court trouble, so I left first and happened to pass by here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she spoke, she observed Summer’s expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man showed no reaction, which meant it wasn’t his people who did it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then it must have been Xia Weibao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Chuyan’s eyes flickered slightly before she smiled and opened the basket, saying, \"By the way, I made some Peach Blossom Crisp with Fifth Sister last night. I originally wanted to take them to Nan Yi, but I didn’t dare go in. Would you like to try some?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she spoke, she offered the Peach Blossom Crisp to Summer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She then said, \"All these were made by Fifth Sister. It took a long time to teach her, but I think they taste quite good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Hualiang frowned, Xia Weibao made them?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In two lifetimes together, she never made pastries for him, and now she’s making them for another man!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, wanting to hurl the Peach Blossom Crisp in front of him away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, how could he bear to?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Xia Chuyan’s words, Xia Yongxuan’s face darkened, \"Second Sister, Summer doesn’t eat Peach Blossom Crisp, you...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as she finished speaking, she saw the man’s slender fingers gently pick up a piece, bringing it to his lips and savoring it slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His demeanor made it seem as if this was a worldly delicacy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Yongxuan’s expression changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Chuyan’s eyes flickered several times before she lowered them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, that’s how it is.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she had guessed, the person Summer liked was not Xia Yongxuan, but Xia Weibao!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Yongxuan looked embarrassed, \"Summer, didn’t you say you don’t like Peach Blossom Crisp?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man still didn’t answer her, quietly and reverently eating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In no time, the plate of Peach Blossom Crisp was empty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Chuyan felt a bit guilty. If this man knew that this plate of Peach Blossom Crisp wasn’t made by Xia Weibao but prepared by a chef under her orders, she wondered if he might spit it out...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, finding out that Summer liked Xia Weibao made the trip worthwhile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked at the now empty plate, deep in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s rare that Mr. Summer appreciates Fifth Sister’s skills. I have some more at my place. If I had known, I would have brought them all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why don’t you come with me, Mr. Summer? I can fetch them for you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Yongxuan’s expression changed, her sharp gaze directed at Xia Chuyan, \"Second Sister, who do you think Summer is? How bold of you to invite him so casually!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Chuyan smiled gently, seemingly unintentional, \"I’m sorry, that was presumptuous of me. I should not inconvenience Mr. Summer. How about I deliver them to you later?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, it might take a while since Fifth Sister is ill, and I need to go back to make her some medicine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Hualiang’s expression changed, she’s sick?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could that be?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be because of last night...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of how he threw Xia Weibao out of the building last night, her clothes were soaked, and even with a bath towel draped over her, the chilly night air could make her catch a cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Hualiang was filled with regret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if he was angry, he shouldn’t have thrown her out of the building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He suddenly felt a bit anxious, not knowing how she was doing now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He really wanted to see her, but as Summer, he didn’t know Xia Weibao and couldn’t reveal his true identity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if seeing his concern, Xia Chuyan’s lips curled up slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She timely said, \"I need to take care of Fifth Sister, so I might not have time to deliver the pastries. Why doesn’t Mr. Summer send someone with me to retrieve them?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Hualiang stood up, \"I’ve nothing to do, I’ll go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Yongxuan’s face completely changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She squinted at Xia Chuyan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Chuyan smiled in response, her gentle and obedient eyes showing a hint of disdain and provocation.\u003C\u002Fp>",701,"2026-06-06T16:22:27.094Z",1,"novelbin.me","b2cdb755ed0e5d33d5fa07251d86a6fcd0c649c2a7ae316713d851079efcde2e","plagued-by-bad-reviews-but-the-top-actress-chapter-1688","plagued-by-bad-reviews-but-the-top-actress-chapter-1686",1766,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fplagued-by-bad-reviews-but-the-top-actress-cover.jpg"]
