Female-dominated society: My husband is clingy and I can't shake him off

Chapter 177 It's a pity that the Li sister I specially sought out... this sentiment is probably

Wang Cheng carefully protected the bamboo tube in his arms as he walked step by step through the snow.

It took half an incense stick to get there, and about a full incense stick to get back.

When she arrived at the camp, she saw Qingzhu squatting outside with a worried look on her face, poking at the snow on the ground in frustration.

Wang Cheng proudly presented the bamboo tube from his bosom, saying, "I've brought the antidote for the master."

Qingzhu looked puzzled and followed Wang Cheng into the military tent.

Wang Cheng glanced at Chu Xiaohuan, who was looking at the defense map, then turned to look at Qingzhu and gestured for him to get a bowl.

However, Wang Cheng's eyes were twitching, and Qingzhu didn't even realize what was going to happen.

Wang Cheng could only sigh, lower his voice, and whisper instructions to Qingzhu.

"Bring me a bowl."

"what?"

Qingzhu didn't react for a moment when she heard this, but after seeing the bamboo tube in Wang Cheng's hand, she nodded and turned to get the bowl.

Chu Xiaohuan was still figuring out how the army should attack in order to minimize losses.

He attempted to preemptively make Britain realize that their Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was not to be trifled with.

However, war inevitably results in casualties, so if negotiations are to take place, the only recourse is...

Chu Xiaohuan was so engrossed in his thoughts that he didn't notice Wang Cheng and Qingzhu's actions not far away.

"Clang clang clang clang~"

Wang Cheng added his own sound effects as he tried to pour out the noodles, but nothing came out except a few drops of water.

She assumed she had poured out too much rice, so she gently patted the back of her hand, but it still wouldn't come out.

Wang Cheng got impatient and slapped it hard.

"Snapped--"

The noodles came out completely, but they had clumped together, like a lump of dough.

Wang Cheng smiled awkwardly; she had forgotten that the noodles would clump together and was only concerned with keeping warm.

Qingzhu looked at the whole lump with disdain; it was all white and didn't look appetizing at all.

He picked up the bowl to take the noodles out, but the general couldn't eat this. He was already feeling unwell, and what if it made him even worse?

When Wang Cheng saw that Qingzhu was about to take it away, he quickly put down the bamboo tube, snatched the bowl, and turned around to deliver it to Chu Xiaohuan.

How can we take this out? She went through so much trouble to get it.

Wang Cheng placed the bowl on Chu Xiaohuan's table, but Chu Xiaohuan didn't even look at it. "Take it away, I don't want to eat it."

Qingzhu stared nervously, fearing that Chu Xiaohuan would give in and eat this unknown thing.

Upon hearing that he was to take it, he immediately beamed and agreed, "Okay, I'll take it right away."

Wang Cheng wanted to snatch it, but Qingzhu beat her to it. She could only pretend to be regretful next to Chu Xiaohuan.

"It's a pity that I specifically sought out Sister Li; I'm afraid my good intentions are..."

Before he finished speaking, Chu Xiaohuan immediately raised his head and looked at Wang Cheng. The "Li Mei" here should be Mo'er, if nothing unexpected happened.

Qingzhu was also startled by Chu Xiaohuan's sudden action and froze on the spot.

Chu Xiaohuan leaned forward slightly to look at the contents of the bowl. Although he couldn't make out what it was, he felt a special sense of familiarity with it.

He gestured for Qingzhu to bring the dish to him, and after taking a sniff, he could confirm that it was made by Li Mo'er.

"Does Mo'er know I'm here?"

Chu Xiaohuan kept his head down, and no one could see the expectation in his eyes.

"Don't worry, boss. I didn't tell Li Mei. I just said I'm back."

Chu Xiaohuan nodded, poking at the dough in the bowl with his chopsticks, trying to pick up a single piece, but the whole thing was stuck together.

He could only use the chopsticks as a fork, taking a small bite and savoring it carefully. It was indeed made by Li Mo'er.

It tastes very strange, with multiple flavors mixed together, making it impossible to distinguish them at all.
