Eternal Love: A Love Story

Chapter 283 - What Relationship Do You Have With Her?

While everyone was praising Xie Ming for her cooking skills, someone was not happy that she was getting everyone's attention.

Yuan Lei who was sitting on the corner saw everyone's faces and the way they were praising Xie Ming. Even the cameraman and the head makeup artist was complimenting her.

Though they were not someone that can help her in her career or she may gain benefits from but this feeling was annoying that no one was paying attention to her.

She was the female lead of the movie and was also an A grade actress. She was much more experienced and beautiful than Xie Ming but still, everyone was praising her and giving their attention to her.

She picked up her chopsticks and slurped the noodles. Her brows furrowed when she tasted the noodles.

She thought that they were overpraising her and she wanted to find some flaw in it, but surprisingly they were delicious. She didn't have noodles in so long because of her diet but when she tasted these noodles, she couldn't help but admire its taste.

They were delicious and mouth-watering. However, she can't just sit still and enjoy these noodles while everyone gathering around Xie Ming. historical

She has to show her that she is the boss otherwise she will become boastful and arrogant.

"What is this? Xie Ming, these noodles are so salty and it's not good for one's health either. You should have used less salt. And these noodles are soggy and does not taste that good." she looked at Xie Ming with disapproval.

" You should have cooked for less time. It tastes weird. You need to learn more otherwise everyone will criticize you for your cooking. "

" I am your senior that's why I am telling you the flaws in your cooking otherwise you won't know there is a problem with your cooking," she said concernedly. She tried to look like she was correcting Xie Ming and wanted her to improve.

The happy atmosphere at the table suddenly turned awkward. Everyone understood Yuan Lie's personality and could see that she was deliberately picking on Xie Ming.

Xie Ming looked at Yuan Lei as if she was looking at fool. She doesn't know what rubbish she was saying. She was the one who has created the recipe of these noodles in her past life and she was telling her to learn cooking?

She could see that she was deliberately trying to humiliate her in front of everyone and was thinking that she would not retaliate in front of everyone.

And even if she did say something, people will think that she is too much and was arguing with a senior.

But these were only childish tricks in front of her. Her mother in law and Xiao Li has already done all this with her so she knows what kind of trick she was trying to pull.

Jian Yan was sitting between Xie Ming and Yuan Lei. His expressions turned dark when he heard Yuan Lei's words.

He wanted to say something because in popularity he is much more above Yuan Lei. He is popular and his fanbase was much bigger than Yuan Lei.

He was only low key and does not show off his popularity much and choose to remain silent. But seeing Xie Ming being picked upon, he could not hold up.

Before saying anything, he turned to look at Xie Ming but surprisingly she was not angry but her expressions were calm and gentle.

This was not so like Xie Ming. She was short-tempered and she would have started arguing with Yuan Lei. Xie Ming hates these kinds of people and she always had a hard time controlling her tongue.

She was always rash with her actions and only think after doing something.

" Really? I am sorry that you didn't like the noodles. It just..I made these noodles according to my taste preferences. Moreover, I already asked everybody who was helping with the preparations earlier about the seasoning they like in the noodles. You were not there so I don't know about your taste." she said while pursing her lips lightly.

" If you have come earlier and helped everyone with the preparations, then I would have asked your preferences as well. I am sorry that it's not your taste." Xie Ming said while making a sorry and innocent face.

She was taunting her indirectly for not coming earlier while everyone was working and she comes at the last moment just to eat.

' Does she not need to work? Even Wu Sheng was working, then why didn't she come?'

"Moreover, I didn't make these noodles that salty. Maybe your blood pressure is high that you feel that these noodles are too salty. If you can't eat these unhealthy salty noodles, then you can make salad for yourself. We have all the ingredients for it." she stretched her hand and picked up the noodles down in front of Yuan Lei without waiting for anything.

Yuan Lei: " -_- "

Everyone: " -_- "

" I would have made a salad for you, but I don't know how to make a salad. And what if I made it wrongly and it does not suit your taste? Then what would you eat?" she said while making an innocent face.

" Also, if you're making some salad, then please let me taste as well. I want to taste your dish as well. You know so much about cooking, then you must be a great cook."

There was a slight smile on her face.

" Pfft."

Xu Lan couldn't control herself and spit the water in her mouth that she was drinking. She was having a hard time controlling her laughter, so she chose to drink water.

But hearing Xie Ming's last words, she lost it. She could not believe that she asked her to make salad herself and let her taste also.

Yuan Lei looked at Xu Lan with a displeased look.

Everyone looked at Xie Ming with interest then they turned their gaze towards Yuan Lei to see her expressions.

Not only Xie Ming lost her temper but didn't even let Yuan Lei eat those noodles. She even told her that her blood pressure is high that's why she was finding noodles salty.

Indirectly she was referring that she was overreacting due to her high blood pressure.

Xu Lan pursed her lips tightly to control her laughter. She has never seen someone taking food from Yuan Lei.

She has never expected from Xie Ming that she could retaliate against Yuan in such a classy manner. She didn't behave rudely or angrily instead she was gentle and polite with her all the time.

But everyone could see that Xie Ming has knocked Yuan Lei with her few words only.

Yuan Lei was looking at Xie Ming in disbelief. Her expression darkened as she glared at her with her sharp gaze.

She clutched her hand into a fist under the table and was trying to calm down otherwise she would have slapped Xie Ming on the spot.

" Xie Ming, what are you doing? Are you insulting me? Your senior? You're just a newbie and was behaving so willfully. Is this a good attitude for you to show everyone?" she tried to lecture her like a senior and tried to make it like she was trying to teach her.

But everyone could see that she was being unreasonable and was deliberately pushing her limits.

" Yuan Lei, I am surprised that you know that a junior should act respectfully towards their seniors. Because I have never seen you respecting your seniors. Leave seniors, you never have been polite to anyone." Wu Sheng spoke as he looked at Yuan Lei disapprovingly.

" You always treat people according to their value to you and if they can help you or not. So these words do not look nice coming from you. Don't you think so?" He said while folding his hands around his chest.

His gaze was sharp and his posture was domineering.

Xie Ming was surprised when he suddenly spoke to Yuan Lei on her behalf. She looked at him thankfully.

Whereas, Jian Yan was not happy because it was Wu Sheng who helped Xie Ming, not him. He was late in speaking up for her.

Xu Lan just sat there and was watching the good show. She would say something for Xie Ming but she doesn't mind that Yuan Lei has been caught on a tight spot.

She was enjoying this drama as she resumed eating her noodles.

Yuan Lei glared at Wu Sheng with her bloodshot red eyes and wanted to retaliate against him but suddenly she heard a noise.

" tssh" she furrowed her brows and looked at the source of the noise.

Her expression turned ugly when she saw Xu Lan slurping noodles while making noises.

Here they were arguing and she was eating noodles? Does she not care what is happening around her?

Yuan Lei felt frustrated and realized that they were all supporting Xie Ming and was targeting her.

" Wu Sheng, why are you speaking on behalf of Xie Ming? What relationship do you have with her? Do you think that you could get her attention if you do this?" she sneered arrogantly as she looked at him with her mocking gaze.

Wu Sheng's gaze furrowed when he heard her disgusting words. Her mouth was foul and nobody can talk to her reasonably.
