Chapter 36: Just plain porridge
Looking at Qin Zhan’s cold eyes, Shi Tao had a third guess. Hopefully Qin Zhan wasn’t angry because Third Master Qin treated her differently, she was also curious about his attitude towards her.
This was too passionate. If outsiders saw this, they would think that this serious and cold Qin family head was her own uncle. Qin Zhan was the one who married into their family because he coveted the family’s wealth.
Shi Tao felt that she had to explain herself clearly. If not, Qin Zhan would kill her out of anger. “Qin Zhan, let me make this clear first. I have nothing to do with your third uncle, and I’m definitely not sent by him. I’m innocent.”
To this, Qin Zhan only had one answer: Hmph.
Shi Tao ignored his sarcastic snort and swore to the heavens that she was not sent by Third Master Qin..
Unexpectedly, the more she explained, the angrier Qin Zhan got.
Forget it. Believe it or not, forget it. Shi Tao gave up on explaining. She was no longer willing to stay in this cold room. She pushed the door open and left.
The moment Qin Zhan stepped out, he saw Shi Tao standing beside Mother Zhang, covering her mouth and snickering. Qin Zhan clenched his fists when he saw how happy Shi Tao was. However, he did not say anything and entered the study with a cold face.
Shi Tao saw the furious Qin Zhan but did not say anything. This fool, did he know what it meant to sow discord? Shi Tao shook her head. The smile on her face widened when she heard Mother Zhang’s words.
No matter what Third Master Qin’s motive for sending Aunt Zhang to their side was, since she was already here, she could not chase her away. She might as well make use of her. No matter what Mother Zhang’s mission was, they could still get the information they wanted from her.
Mother Zhang was a talkative person, and she was good at reading people’s expressions and observing their emotions. Shi Tao had wanted to have a casual chat with her to test the waters, but when she looked up again, the morning was almost over.
Shi Tao was alarmed as she quickly recalled if she had said anything she shouldn’t have. In the end, she concluded that she did not expose anything and Mother Zhang did not reveal anything useful either. In short, the two of them had a good chat in the morning, but it was all useless nonsense. Shi Tao felt a moment of defeat, but she quickly pulled herself together and cheered herself on. It was fine. She would just treat it as a chat to improve their relationship.
Although there were a few servants in the villa, they would only come once every few days. The only servants in the villa were the elusive servant and butler Ah Ming. There was no need to mention the butler. He was definitely Qin Zhan’s man, so the other person she could use was Mother Zhang. If she had a good relationship with Mother Zhang, and if anything happened to her in the future, Mother Zhang would be able to speak up for her. Shi Tao encouraged herself and looked at Mother Zhang with a sincere smile.
In the afternoon, Shi Tao saw Qin Zhan and the butler coming out of the study room. She clapped her hands in front of them. Under Qin Zhan’s cold and vicious gaze, Shi Tao turned to look at Mother Zhang.

For a moment, there was silence.
“I’m not feeling well today. I’m only eating plain porridge.”
Shi Tao was anxious. She understood what Qin Zhan meant. He was not in good health so everyone was drinking plain porridge with him. No, why should I?
“Qin Zhan, I don’t think that’s a good idea. Why don’t I cook and make you a few more bowls of porridge? You can just watch us eat?” Shi Tao thought of a compromise and asked Qin Zhan carefully.
