Chapter 201: Best Mockery

Ning Meng walked to Xu Wei with a tray. On top of the tray were brewed tea, sculpted fruits, and desserts. Ning Meng placed them on the table before Xu Wei one by one.

Then, she took back the tray and stood to the side. She wanted to see Xu Wei’s reaction.

Qin Shu looked at the fruits and desserts that were placed in front of Xu Wei, and a faint smile came across her face. “Miss Xu, please try the desserts prepared by the pastry chefs at Bright Garden. They are the best at making things that look like little animals. They had put on their best show, and the desserts really do look appetizing.”

Xu Wei snapped out of her thoughts and looked at the fruits and desserts in front of her.

For the sculpted fruits, the yellow mango skin was carved into the shape of a skirt. The mango fruit resembled the female body. The top of the fruit was cut off, and the two sides looked like arms.

Replacing the cut top section was the fruit from a white dragon fruit.

The sculpted fruit looked like a girl wearing a flamboyant yellow dress.

For the dessert, it looked like a small yellow duckling. The area above the duck neck was covered with cream. The duck’s mouth was wide open as if it was laughing.

The area below the neck was light yellow in color.

Xu Wei looked at the yellow fruit and the yellow dessert. Then she glanced down at her yellow dress.

She felt like she was being made fun of for dressing like a yellow duck. She thought that the duck was also laughing at her.

Xu Wei’s expression was unpleasant. She was very embarrassed.

Qin Shu looked at Xu Wei’s changed expression and said in a confused tone, “Miss Xu, why aren’t you eating? These are the best works of our pastry chefs. Because you are Yu’s friend and a guest of Bright Garden, they were willing to show off their skills. Usually, fruits and desserts don’t look this crafty.”

“Even I wasn’t served such delicate desserts,” Qin Shu added.

Xu Wei gripped the ends of her dress tightly with her hands. She did not want to lose her elegance to anger.

She squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth. “You’re too kind.”

Qin Shu said dismissively, “I’m glad Miss Xu likes them. I was afraid that the skills of the chefs at Bright Garden might not please you.”

Xu Wei looked at Qin Shu and tried her best to squeeze out a smile that she thought was good enough. “What are you saying? The chefs at Bright Garden are all top-notch masters. Their cooking skills are unparalleled.”

Qin Shu replied, “Miss Xu sure is knowledgeable, as expected of a lady from a prestigious family. Look at me, all I know is that the food my chefs prepare is delicious. As of their achievements, I know none.”

Xu Wei was at first pleased with Qin Shu’s praise. However, when she saw the little yellow duck’s open mouth again, she was reminded of the mockery and her contentment disappeared.

“Just study more if there’s anything you don’t know. I just remembered that there’s something I need to attend to. Please excuse me.”

After Xu Wei finished speaking, she grabbed her expensive bag and left without looking back. She left in a very flustered and embarrassing manner.

Qin Shu said, “Butler, send Miss Xu off.”

As the butler turned to leave, he glanced at the fruits and pastries on the glass coffee table. Since when did the pastry chef of Bright Garden prepare desserts in such a style?

When Xu Wei was far away, Ning Meng stared at the laughing duck and couldn’t help but burst out laughing. “Young madam, that was amusing.”

Qin Shu looked at the laughing duck and couldn’t help but laugh as well. The pastry chef’s skill was amazing.

It was even better than she had imagined.

At this moment, Fu Tingyu walked in from the entrance.

The butler followed closely behind him.

Fu Tingyu saw the girl smiling very happily.

“What happened? You look delighted.”

Qin Shu pointed at the pastry and held back her laughter. “Our pastry chefs have great skills. Look at their masterpieces.”
