Celebrity girl is my wife novel Chapter 139

Nan Chen really wanted to leave at once.

How can I, Master Nan Chen, be subjected to such humiliation

However, Nan Chen was actually still able to tolerate these. Looks like he had previously underestimated a human being’s ability to tolerate things.

He returned to the dinner table gracefully, exuding an air of nobility.

Dinner officially started.

There were many ingredients in the hotpot, including tofu, pork belly and many other food items. Afterall, the fun of eating hotpot was that any food could be dumped inside.

Staring at the oily and spicy looking soup, Nan Chen did not know how to start.

In the first place, he seldom ate hotpot. During the occasional times that he ate it, it was always at high-end restaurants where he would order a clear broth, served in an individual pot.

It was his first time eating hotpot in this style, where everyone dipped their chopsticks into the same pot.

He raised his chopsticks but hesitated.

“Are you eating or not? If you are not eating, please don’t sit here. We are happy to have more space.” Ning Ran looked at him in disgust.

“Dad, eat! It’s so yummy!” Erbao said, as she picked up a piece of pork belly meat and put it inside her mouth, with an exaggerated expression of satisfaction.

Nan Chen figured that if it was something Erbao could eat, it couldn’t be too spicy. With that in mind, he chose a piece of tofu and ate it.

It actually tasted good. It did not taste like the hotpot which he had before.

However, after he swallowed, it felt as if a volcano had erupted in his mouth. He could barely handle the sudden overflowing spicy aftertaste.

To prevent being looked down upon by Ning Ran, Nan Chen ate a big mouthful of rice, hoping that it would help to neutralize the spice.

“Dad, try this! This is the best.” Erbao was referring to the pork belly meat.

In order not to disappoint Erbao, who had enthusiastically recommended her favorite food, Nan Chen forced a big piece of pork belly meat down his throat.

It was too spicy and oily! He stuffed himself with some vegetables to flush the taste away.

As Nan Chen continued eating, he realized that the food did not taste as spicy anymore.

Even Nan Chen started to admire himself for his ability to adapt. Within such a short span of time, he was already able to tolerate such a high level of spiciness.

After finishing one bowl of rice, Nan Chen stopped eating. He had a queasy feeling in his stomach.

“I’m done. Please continue enjoying your meal.” Nan Chen said politely.

However, he didn’t leave the table immediately. According to proper dining etiquettes, the guest should not be the first person to leave the table.

But Ning Ran was not familiar with such concepts. “Why are you still here? Step aside.”

This woman knows nothing about etiquettes. If she marries into the Nan family, it would be a disaster! Nan Chen thought to himself.

He had no choice but to leave the table. He sat down on a couch.

Just then, he felt a burning sensation in his stomach. He was starting to feel pain.

Without attracting attention, Nan Chen gulped down a huge glass of water. But it didn’t help.

The pain got unbearable after a while. Nan Chen had no choice but to go to the toilet. He walked quickly, taking long strides.

“Oh no. Dad has diarrhea. Maybe he really cannot take spicy food.” Erbao said.

“Didn’t you say he love spicy food? He seemed to be enjoying himself just now.” Ning Ran frowned.

Nan Chen emerged from the toilet, still upholding his poker face.

But the scene in the toilet just now was different. His stomach hurt so badly that his forehead was beaded with sweat.

“I will make a move first. I have something on.” Nan Chen announced.

“So fast? Please stay a while more!” Cheng Xiangyun continued to extend her warm hospitality.

“Sorry, I can’t. I really need to go now.” Nan Chen headed right towards the door.

Just then, he made a one hundred and eighty degree turn and took long strides towards the toilet again, trying to look nonchalant.

Even though he appeared calm, everyone was aware that this young master had an upset stomach.
