So what if she's a fake heiress? She's being pampered by a powerful figure in Beijing'

Jealousy spread like wildfire and quickly engulfed Zhao Feier.

But then she thought of how Huo Shen had spoken coldly to her earlier.

She gritted her teeth and swallowed her malice towards Xie Junfei, that little bitch.

From childhood to adulthood, anything she liked or anyone she set her sights on had to be hers.

The position of Huo family daughter-in-law belongs to her, and Huo Shen is absolutely hers too.

She will definitely make a move against Xie Junfei, but definitely not now.

After all those years in the Huo family mansion, she outmaneuvered countless women who openly and secretly coveted Huo Shen. What is Xie Junfei compared to her?

If she uses a few more tricks, what is Xie Junfei, that little bitch, anyway?

Thinking of this, Zhao Feier forced herself to compose her expression and got out of the car, once again adopting the demeanor of a well-bred young lady.

Once everyone had arrived, the manager of the private room ordered the servants to serve the dishes.

Zhao Feier glanced at the dishes and immediately smiled and praised them:

"Brother Shen's management skills are really good. I haven't seen him for a few months, and the head chef of Lishui Restaurant has improved a lot."

Hearing her say that, Wang Yu'er just smiled and didn't respond.

Xie Junfei, however, pretended to be puzzled:

"No, haven't the head chefs at Lishui Restaurant always been at this level?"

"You're just too biased towards Huo Shen. How can the management level allow the master chef's skills to improve?"

After saying that, Xie Junfei smiled at her with his eyes crinkling. It looked like a gentle and earnest smile, but in reality, his eyes were full of mockery.

Seeing her like this, Zhao Feier immediately realized what was going on.

The fact that the kitchen staff at Lishui Restaurant has never changed means that the head chef treats her and Xie Junfei with completely different levels of seriousness.

Through Huo Shen's introduction, Xie Junfei became Huo's daughter-in-law at Lishui Tower, holding the position of Huo's eldest daughter-in-law.

The dishes prepared by the head chef were naturally much more upscale than those prepared for her, an ordinary customer who could only make reservations and even had to wait in line!

Xie Junfei's words were a subtle hint to Zhao Feier, suggesting that she should use this meal to better understand her own position.

Zhao Feier could no longer maintain her fake smile.

When has she ever suffered such humiliation on Huo family territory!

She's not Zhao if she doesn't get her revenge today!

Thinking of this, her face turned completely cold.

Now that she can't touch that little bitch Xie Junfei, can't she at least make an example of her?

Do you really think she's a clueless little girl?

Thinking of this, she picked up her chopsticks, casually grabbed a shrimp ball from the table, and just as she placed it on her plate, she exclaimed in exaggerated surprise:

"Brother Shen, you're spoiling these servants at Lishui Tower way too much!"

Upon hearing this, Huo Shen put down the chopsticks he was using to serve Xie Junfei food and frowned, saying:

"What's wrong with you?"

Zhao Feier pouted, feigning innocence:

"Don't you know that I've been allergic to seafood since I was a child?"

"These servants are so blind and indifferent! Don't they know this?"

After saying all this, she didn't forget to escalate the matter further:

"It's fine if it's just me today, but what if some high-ranking or powerful person comes to dinner? Wouldn't that offend them?"

"Brother Shen, you must give these ignorant servants a good beating!"

After saying that, she glanced gloatingly at the butler who was standing by with his hands at his sides, her eyes full of pride.

You blind fool, fawning over Xie Junfei so much that you've even forgotten about me, the pampered young lady raised in the Huo family mansion!

They've had a couple of good days and already forgotten their own limitations!

After hearing her words, Huo Shen not only did not react, but his brows furrowed even more deeply.

He was about to say something when Xie Junfei grabbed him.

Xie Junfei gave Huo Shen a wink, and Huo Shen immediately shut his mouth.

Then, the girl adopted a peacemaker's demeanor and gently tried to mediate:

"This was an oversight by Lishuilou. Please be lenient and give Lishuilou another chance."

"Moreover, when we called here this morning, we didn't know that my sister would suddenly visit, so it's understandable that we didn't expect it."

“My favorite dishes here are seafood. It’s good that the manager is being attentive to me knowing my preferences. Please bear with me this time, but next time you come here, just mention my name and the head chef will apologize to you. Is that alright?”

"Besides, the people at Lishui Tower are all wage earners, not servants in a mansion. If they lose their jobs just because of a little negligence outside of their responsibilities, it will only make Uncle Huo seem more mean-spirited."

After saying that, Xie Junfei looked at Zhao Feier, who was being indirectly scolded, with a smile.

These words made Zhao Feier feel utterly disgusted, as if she had swallowed a fly.

Despite Xie Junfei's polite words, what he actually meant was:

You're just a freeloader who showed up halfway through the trip. You're only getting this meal because of me. Now that you've benefited, shut your mouth and eat your food.

After leaving me at Lishuilou, who do you think you are? You actually dare to nitpick and fire my employees?

What are you dreaming about?

That's not all; after Xie Junfei finished speaking, Huo Shen even nodded in agreement.

"Junfei is right."

"We've all finally managed to get together for a meal, so please don't throw a tantrum."

After saying that, he swiftly stopped Xie Junfei from secretly tossing broccoli into his plate:

"Eat properly, and don't be picky about food!"

Xie Junfei pouted and ate the food with a bitter expression.

When Zhao Feier saw how affectionate they were, her eyes welled up with tears.

She's had a smooth life and been pampered for so many years; this is the first time she's been ridiculed like this!

She really wanted to flip the table, rush up to Xie Junfei, and tear off his hypocritical face!

But when she thought about the purpose of her desperate attempts to get close to him today, she could only swallow her anger.

Her purpose in coming here was not only to improve her relationship with Wang Yu'er, but also to get closer to Huo Shen.

Some time ago, she asked the elders at the Huo family residence in Shanxi to put pressure on Huo Shen and force him to meet with her a few times.

After all, she was an elder, and although she wasn't a member of the Huo family, she had grown up in the Huo family since childhood.

So even if Huo Shen was unwilling, he still had to give the people at the old mansion some face.

And so we met for the first time.

Huo Shen then entrusted her to Huo Lan, making her Wang Yu'er's assistant, and also gave her the most prestigious contract from Venus.

She even used the excuse that she was alone in the capital to beg Huo Shen to let her celebrate her birthday with her.

Huo Shen agreed.

On his birthday, he even gave himself a brooch worth millions as a gift.

She even took a picture and posted it on her WeChat Moments with a strong implication, asserting her dominance over those despicable people who coveted Huo Shen.

In her opinion, it's often said that it's easy for a woman to pursue a man.

Moreover, she and Huo Shen had been betrothed since childhood, so as long as she was persistent enough, Huo Shen would be hers sooner or later.
