(Part 2)
Lin Yi snorted disdainfully. Forget a dog, he'd killed countless wolves in the mountains with one slap. A Rottweiler was nothing to him, of course.
"See that? That's General Weiwu. I'm telling you, he's very powerful. If you dare go upstairs, I'll tell him to bite you to death! "Mengyao threatened.
"Got it." Lin Yi nodded.
Mengyao thought that Lin Yi was afraid of General Weiwu after seeing how careful he was. She was even more pleased with herself. She dragged Yushu upstairs, leaving General Weiwu to guard the stairs.
Lin Yi picked up the luggage and glared at General Weiwu. General Weiwu shuddered and took a step back. It seemed to sense that the person in front of it wasn't an ordinary person. It was a dangerous person.
Lin Yi wasn't in the mood to play with the dog. He glared at the dog and ignored it. He took his luggage and went to the room Mengyao mentioned.
The room was simple. There was only a bed, a desk, and a small closet. But, these things were more than enough for him. He only brought a few tattered clothes with him, and nothing else. What surprised Lin Yi the most was that there was a washroom in the room. It was like a hotel!
Lin Yi put his luggage down and took a towel to the washroom. Lin Yi was covered in dust from the long journey.
He looked at his watch. It wasn't even six yet. Lin Yi decided to take a shower before Faubert came to deliver his food.
Lin Yi was very satisfied with his current job and environment. He could live in a hotel every day and get thirty thousand kuai. Where else could he find a job like this? It was much better than helping his old man weave straw shoes at home.
… …
"Shu, I'm starting to regret it. This Lin Yi doesn't look like someone who can be my shield." Mengyao complained to Yushu after changing into a set of home clothes.
"I think he's fine." Yushu laid on the bed, leaning her legs against the wall. She didn't know where she'd read that it could slim down her legs and promote puberty.
"What's so good about it? I was thinking of finding a handsome guy to pretend to be my boyfriend, but now I've got a country bumpkin! I'll be a laughing stock if I bring him out!" Mengyao gritted her teeth. "If you think he's good, then you can be his girlfriend." Mengyao was pissed off.
"I'm not in trouble, I don't need a shield. Otherwise, I might really consider it. "Yushu said with a shake of her head.
"You have a brother who is an officer, who would dare to provoke you? If I had a brother who could break a tree with a kick, I wouldn't need to find a shield! " Mengyao knew that Yushu was trying to piss her off on purpose, but who asked Yushu to have a brother while she didn't?
"Yao Yao, how about, I ask my older brother to find you a godbrother in the army?" Yushu blinked. "How about Love Bro … Zhong Pingliang would have to stand aside then!"
"Shu!" Mengyao's eyes went wide as she listened to Yushu's nonsense. "What kind of stupid idea is this?! You said you'd ask my father to find me a shield, but … Look at him, who did you get? How can he be a shield? And now you're giving me this stupid idea, love bro? That's disgusting! "
"Alright, alright, I'll stop talking." Yushu quickly shut her mouth when she saw that Mengyao was really angry. She was right, she was the one who gave Mengyao the idea of finding a shield, but now that the person wasn't to her liking, she had to bear some responsibility as well … …
Lin Yi had just showered when Faubert came to deliver dinner. He looked through his suitcase, but there wasn't a single decent piece of clothing. Lin Yi couldn't help but complain about how stingy the old man was. Couldn't he just buy him some new clothes?
Mengyao would probably think that he was wearing dirty clothes when he went out, and he wouldn't even be able to sit on the sofa. With no other choice, Lin Yi opened the bag Faubert gave him and put on his school uniform.
Both Mengyao and Yushu were taken aback by Lin Yi's new look. He'd been unkempt before, wearing a tattered singlet and underpants, but now that he'd showered, he looked like a gentleman. Paired with the school uniform, he looked like a completely different person from the migrant worker he used to be!
Her first impression of Lin Yi, however, was simply too bad. Mengyao would never admit that Lin Yi was a handsome guy, no matter what. She could only say that he was stronger and more pleasing to the eye than before.
Faubert brought over four dishes and a soup: Yuxiang shredded pork, Sichuan poached fish, stir-fried cabbage, and black fungus with spinach. The soup was shiitake mushroom soup.
The combination of meat and vegetables was perfect. It had been a long time since Lin Yi had such delicious food. Seeing that Faubert had also prepared his own lunch box, he happily took it and sat at the table.
Lin Yi was just about to pick up his chopsticks when Mengyao objected, "What are you doing? Shu and I haven't eaten yet, and you want to eat first? From now on, Shu and I will eat first, and you can eat if we don't want to! "
With that, she turned around and went to the kitchen. She had a habit of using silverware when she was young. It was a habit she developed when she lived with her grandpa. So, in the disinfection cabinet in the kitchen, there was a set of silverware that Mengyao specially used.
Lin Yi could only smile bitterly at Mengyao's domineering attitude. He put away his chopsticks and looked at the food on the table. He could only hold back his saliva. Fortunately, the white rice was his. Lin Yi quickly shoved a few mouthfuls into his mouth. Maybe it was because he ate too fast, but he choked a little. He said with a slurred voice, "Is there anything to drink?"
Yushu looked at the man who looked like he hadn't eaten in eight lifetimes and found it funny. She pointed at the freezer, "What do you want to drink? Help yourself."
"Oh." Lin Yi turned around and saw a big freezer filled with all kinds of drinks. Lin Yi took out a bottle of orange juice and took a big gulp. He felt much better after that.
Mengyao took the cutlery back and started commenting on the dishes on the table with Yushu.
"Wow, Sichuan poached fish, my favorite!"
"This Yuxiang shredded pork is a little too sweet. That damned chef, doesn't he know that eating too much sugar makes you fat? I'll get dad to fire him someday! "
"En, this cabbage is delicious. Shu, you should try it too!"
Mengyao nagged as she ate. These dishes were prepared by the chefs of Pengzhan Industries, and Faubert would deliver them every night.
Pengzhan had a lot of social engagements, but Mengyao's mother had left home when she was very young. Mengyao didn't know why, but her father refused to tell her every time she mentioned it to him.
