C287 See Through

At the dining table, Lori's eyes lit up when Ling Xi'er pointed at the plate.

Lori nodded at Ling Xi'er with a smile on her face. Then, she stretched out her chopsticks and picked up a carrot.

Seeing Lori pick it up, the Hu clansmen on the dining table all stopped. A few of the Spirit Fox Clan clansmen also stopped and looked at Lori.

Under everyone's gaze, Lori directly stuffed the carrot into her mouth without any hesitation.

The Hu Clan's protector Ling Xi'er narrowed her eyes and stared at Lori. The atmosphere at the dining table instantly became somewhat solemn.

Lori also felt that something was not right and stopped her actions. She placed the chopsticks by the side of the bowl and carefully looked at Ling Xi'er. Looking at Ling Xi'er's eyes, she felt a little frightened and did not know what was going on.

Lori thought to herself, What is going on? Did I do something wrong that led them to find out that I am not the real patriarch?

But she quickly denied it. It should not be. I feel that I did not do anything wrong. Could it be that there is someone among them who knows Su Lian better than me?

Lin Rann didn't know what was going on either. In this solemn atmosphere, he was the first to speak, "What's wrong? Could it be that Ling Xi'er's protector feels that the food doesn't suit her taste?"

Ling Xi'er squinted her eyes and turned to look at Lin Rann. She said faintly, "The food is very appetizing, but I feel that there is something wrong with this patriarch of yours. Is this really your patriarch, Su Lian?"

"How could it not be?" Lin Rann smiled and said, "I still have the same words as before. The two races will form an alliance. Since your patriarch has arrived, our patriarch will definitely be present. Otherwise, this can be considered as our rudeness! "

"That also means that you can't guarantee that your patriarch is real, right?" Ling Xi'er asked.

"Then how could it be fake?" Lin Rann said with a smile. He thought, What is going on? Lori did not do anything wrong. Didn't everything go smoothly from the beginning to now? Why did Ling Xi'er talk about this now?

All the people of Spirit Fox Clan were very nervous.

Lori stood up and said, "How can I be a fake patriarch? If you don't believe me, you can ask some of the people of Spirit Fox Clan."

Lori changed the topic, "We have been discussing about the alliance since the beginning until now. We have finished discussing the alliance. And you all stressed whether I am the real patriarch or not, questioning me as the patriarch. Could it be that your Hu Clan is regretting not wanting to form an alliance with us? The excuse you have come up with is too untechnical. I think even a three-year-old child can find a better excuse than this! "

" How can that be? How can that be! " Hu Clan's patriarch Arathi quickly helped her out of the predicament. "Patriarch Su Lian, please calm down. How can our Hu Clan not want to form an alliance with the nobles? Our Hu Clan is 100% in favor of forming an alliance. We still need to rely on both of us to protect them in the future. However, there might be some small misunderstanding now. Adding on the fact that the protector of our Hu Clan, Ling Xi'er, has a quick tongue in her heart, but don't worry Patriarch Su Lian. I will talk about him when we get back! "

After Arathi finished speaking, he turned his head and glared at Ling Xi'er. "Ling Xi'er, if there is anything, we can talk about it privately when we get back. This is a banquet!"

Lin Rann, Lori, Jiaang Yunfei and a few others who knew about the situation heaved a sigh of relief when they saw Arathi's help. They had never thought that things would change again.

Ling Xi'er did not pay attention to Arathi's words at all. Instead, she stood up. Pointing at the plate of vegetables that Lori had just picked, she said, "I think the patriarch of Spirit Fox Clan should know more about the people of Spirit Fox Clan than the people of Hu Clan, right? "

The other members of the Spirit Fox Clan nodded their heads in confusion. They didn't know why she said that and what she wanted to say.

Lin Rann, Lori, and Jiaang Yunfei's hearts were in their throats again. They looked at the plate of dishes and guessed, Could it be that she really found something? What did she see in this plate of dishes?

Lori looked at the plate of dishes and was stunned. Then she suddenly thought of something. Her face was a little pale. She thought, I actually forgot about that one. I never thought that there was someone in the Hu Clan who knew Su Lian so well. This was something she never thought of.

Ling Xi'er looked at the people around her and then slowly said, "What is the main ingredient in this dish? It is carrots!"

Carrot?

Then what?

Hu Clan's patriarch Arathi did not know why Ling Xi'er said that, but he was too embarrassed to interrupt and could only watch quietly.

Ling Xi'er's eyes stared at Lori, "We have already gathered information about the patriarch of your Spirit Fox Clan a long time ago. We are preparing for the alliance. We were afraid that because of something wrong, we would anger Patriarch Su Lian."

Ling Xi'er first talked about the matter of gathering information about Su Lian. This was her shrewdness. It showed that she only gathered information in order to not anger Su Lian because of personal behavior when forming an alliance. This was to prevent her from doing so later. Someone used the stolen information to cause trouble.

Unfortunately, no one was concerned about this now.

Contact me and continue, "According to our information, Patriarch Su Lian doesn't eat carrots at all! And I forgot at that time. So I made a slight concession, but I didn't expect that... What?"2

Lori's face turned slightly pale and she tried to defend herself, "As a guest of Spirit Fox Clan, you said that this dish was delicious. So let me try this dish. If I don't eat it, I will definitely give face to the Hu Clan. That's why I ate it. I ate carrots to protect the friendship between the Spirit Fox Clan and the Hu Clan. "

Lori was a little nervous. She didn't know if this excuse of hers could escape from her.

This was something she had just forgotten.

Su Lian did not like to eat carrots and even had some rejection towards carrots.

As for Lori, from the time Lin Rann and Jiaang Yunfei went to her house, it was not hard to tell from the carrots in her hands that carrots were one of Lori's favorite ingredients.

Su Lian did not like eating carrots. For her best friend who had played with her since she was young, she did not like eating carrots. She definitely knew about this matter, but when she ate at the dining table, she thought that everything was in the past. Thus, she relaxed her vigilance. However, she did not expect that it would be at this moment. He had been discovered.
