Xue Can exerted a great deal of willpower to suppress the urge to get rid of Lei Li.
Lei Li wasn't the type to play by the rules. The more you told her not to do something, the more she wanted to do it.
Utterly rebellious.
Xue Can didn't want to get into a huge fight with Lei Li in front of Shen Lu. He figured he'd just get through the meal for now and explain everything to Shen Lu in private later.
Seeing Xue Can's foul expression, Lei Li felt a surge of satisfaction.
She finally let go of Shen Lu and picked up her chopsticks.
As soon as she took a bite, she immediately sensed the secret within the dishes.
'This food can actually soothe the Spiritual Sea!'
It wasn't just one dish; every single one, including the rice, had this effect.
Lei Li shot a quick glance at Shen Lu as a million thoughts raced through her mind.
'For example, why do these dishes have the ability to soothe the Spiritual Sea?'
'Is it the ingredients?'
'Where did the ingredients come from?'
