Julian’s Stand-In Wife By South Wind Dialect Chapter 172
“Stubborn,” Julian muttered. He watched as Diana was about to drift off to sleep again and was confused.‘ Have
you lost your mind from hunger?”
They were in this situation, yet she still didn’t know how to say anything nice to him.
Diana snorted at his question. “No, I’m not hungry.”
When she said that, her eyes sparkled brightly as if she was telling the complete truth. As soon as the words left her
mouth, her stomach rumbled loudly.
Of course she was hungry! The baby was hungry too!
For the past two days, she had eaten all the snacks she could find in the room, which helped her maintain her body
functions. But she couldn’t find anything this afternoon, so she decided to sleep.
If she was still in this situation, she planned to call Madam Fulcher and ask her to come for a meal. That way, Diana

She didn’t expect Julian to come into her room tonight with Kayla. The sight of them standing together, annoyed
her, especially when she recalled Julian’s history of protecting Kayla. The hurt she felt brought much more harm
than starving.
For the sake of her physical and mental health, Diana decided not to deal with them. However, it seemed that Julian
was reluctant to leave. He looked at Kayla and said, “Do me a favor.”
He beckoned for her to come over and whispered something in her ear. Kayla looked confused, but she quickly
smoothed her face and left the room.
Finally, she didn’t have to look at the face that was eerily similar to her own.
Diana pretended to not have heard her stomach rumble and asked Julian, “Why aren’t you gone yet?”
“I won’t. I’m waiting for you to apologize to Kayla.”
“…You can wait as long as you want,” Diana replied indifferently.
She hadn’t done anything wrong, so she wouldn’t apologize.
So, the odds were that Julian’s hopes were going to be dashed.
But d*mn it… Now that she was awake, she could feel the acute hunger in her stomach. She could also smell
something delicious in the air…
It was then Kayla returned to the room with a cart of food.
Diana’s eyes widened. “What are you doing?!”
“Nothing much,” Julian said when he heard the movement behind him. The smile on his face widened and he
turned to help Kayla set up the meal on the coffee table from the cart.
“Close the door. It’s time to eat.”
But this was the bedroom!
”
Julian had OCD and would never eat in the bedroom, even if someone were to beat him to death!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThat was why Diana only ate the snacks she hid in the bedroom whenever he wasn’t around! But… When she ate
her takeaway in the bedroom a couple of days ago, he hadn’t said anything about it either…
“The chef did a good job today,” Julian said, giving her a look as he opened the container lid while listing out the
food on the table. “Hmm. Meatballs, lobster soup, beef strips…”
Every dish sounded average, though Diana swallowed harshly as she listened. Since they were all meaty dishes, it
wasn’t something she really wanted to eat right now, so she could still endure it.
Unexpectedly, Julian seemed to be able to read her mind as he continued, “There’s also spicy and sour tofu and
sirloin steak with peanut and vinegar sauce. Oh, the spicy and sour soup looks good. It has been a while
since made thinuta
Then he said in a dissatisfied manner, “The sourness is a little too much, though..
As he said that, he stood and walked to the window to open it. “Ah, this is better. This way, the vinegar smell will
blow out.”
Diana was speechless. The autumn breeze today was blowing northwards, so instead of getting rid of the smell as
he said, it would instead blow the fragrant smell in her face!
What the hell?!
