Thinking about herself in the past, even now, she never worried about food.

She indulged herself to the point of becoming overweight, and it took her a lot of effort to lose all that fat.

But Yang Xiaocui probably has to worry about food every day.

It’s so rare for someone to give her food, yet she can’t eat it. Thinking about what she heard that day, that older woman clearly told Yang Dong to bring food for Yang Xiaocui to nourish her body, but when the food was brought, it wasn’t given to Yang Xiaocui. It’s really too much.

She quickly called Alu, "Alu, go to the kitchen and see what’s there, bring it all over."

Alu obediently went out, and upon hearing this, Yang Xiaocui immediately refused, "Chuntao, there’s no need, I already ate before coming."

"It’s fine, you can eat a little more here later, otherwise you won’t get to eat it once you take it back."

Very soon, Alu brought back the food from the kitchen. Actually, this food couldn’t compare to what Li Chuntao used to have. Li Chuntao used to love meat, and everyone in her family loved meat, or else they wouldn’t all have become so plump.

But now, Li Chuntao needs to control her weight and has changed her eating habits to mostly vegetables. However, it’s not just plain broth; there are still oil and meat slices in it, which would be great for Yang Xiaocui, plus there’s white rice.

Li Chuntao pushed the meal in front of Yang Xiaocui, "Go ahead and eat." 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Seeing such a meal, Yang Xiaocui swallowed hard, but she held back and said, "Really, there’s no need, I ate before coming."

"Go ahead and eat, it’s fine. If you don’t eat it, it’ll spoil tomorrow and end up getting thrown away."

Hearing that it would be thrown away, Yang Xiaocui felt a pang in her heart and also a bit envious of Li Chuntao, thinking how lucky she was to be born into such a wealthy family, unlike her own poor family.

If she had been born into a wealthy family, she might not be worse than Li Chuntao, possibly even better.

"Well, then I’ll eat it."

"Yes, go ahead and eat."

And so, Yang Xiaocui began to eat at Li Chuntao’s place, and she was really enjoying it, her eating mannerisms made Li Chuntao feel very sorry for her.

Such a pitiable person, if her fiancé were also snatched away from her, she might not survive.

Thankfully, she was of a good heart, only feeling regret but never having the thought of snatching someone away. Seeing Yang Xiaocui like this now, she was even more determined not to do such a thing.

Before long, Yang Xiaocui finished her meal, and just as she finished, she heard someone calling from next door, "Xiaocui, where have you gone? It’s so late, why aren’t you back yet?"

Hearing the voice, Yang Xiaocui quickly got up and said, "Chuntao, my mom is calling me again, I have to go back. Thank you for the meal today."

"No need to thank me, hurry on back."

"Yes, Chuntao, please don’t tell anyone about what I told you today, if my mom finds out, I’ll definitely get a beating." Though she said this, in her heart Yang Xiaocui hoped that Li Chuntao would pass this on to the Yang Family.

But what she miscalculated was that she didn’t understand the kind of person Li Chuntao was. Li Chuntao was the type who would keep a promise and not spill any secrets. Moreover, she was purely afraid that if she said anything, Yang Xiaocui’s mother would scold her, so she definitely wouldn’t say a word.

She hurriedly made a promise, "Yes, don’t worry, I definitely won’t say anything."

"Okay, then I’ll be off. Come find me to hang out when you have time." With that, Yang Xiaocui ran out of the yard.
