Fried Mushrooms and Gutter Oil
Mengyao's eyes lit up at the sight of Lin Yi walking out of the fitting room …
Her impression of Lin Yi had changed quite a while ago, and Lin Yi looked a lot more handsome in his school uniform than when he was a laborer. However, Lin Yi looked even more handsome in his casual clothes.
Hmph, she hadn't expected this guy to be this handsome. No wonder he was so popular with girls, even Lingshan was trying to get close to him! She shouldn't have asked him to buy it if she'd known.
Mengyao thought, a little conflicted.
"Wow! Yao Yao, look at how handsome Shield Bro is! He's more than enough to be your Shield Bro! I guarantee it! "Yushu was quite surprised at Lin Yi's change as well.
It seemed that clothes made the man, and bark made the tree.
"How about it?" Lin Yi picked out two casual outfits. He didn't think it'd look right for him to follow the two Misses in a suit. He'd look like a hired thug if he were to wear one.
"So ugly." Mengyao said with a yawn as she looked at Lin Yi with sleepy eyes.
"Haha …" Lin Yi smiled as he looked at Yushu. "What do you think?"
"I … …" Yushu looked at Mengyao, a little troubled. She felt a little guilty all of a sudden. "I guess."
"Alright then." Lin Yi said as he took out the card Faubert gave him.
"I'll do it, I told you I'd buy it for you." Mengyao said, getting up from her chair and going to the counter.
Lin Yi shrugged. There was no need to fight Mengyao if she insisted. This wasn't the time to be a gentleman, after all. The money in his card was from Pengzhan, and the money in Mengyao's card was from Pengzhan.
The two were essentially the same, and it didn't matter whose card he swiped.
"We're done. Is there anything else you want?" Mengyao asked Lin Yi after swiping her card.
"I'd like to get a laptop." Lin Yi said after some thought.
"Oh, a laptop. Shu, I thought you didn't have a laptop in your house anymore? Why don't you get Lin Yi to use it?" Mengyao was a little tired- there weren't any laptops in the mall, and they'd have to walk quite a distance to get one.
"Sure." Yushu didn't really care- computers were the type of thing that got replaced pretty quickly anyway. She was staying at Mengyao's house for the time being, and she'd probably get a new one when she moved back home. She might as well give the computer to Lin Yi for now.
Lin Yi didn't have any objections since both Mengyao and Yushu said so. The three left the mall together, and Lin Yi looked at the long line of cars in front of the parking lot. Mengyao wasn't a bad person. She wasn't afraid of getting a ticket, but with her status, all she had to do was call Faubert in advance. Even if the manager of the mall didn't want to park, he'd have to give her a parking spot.
Mengyao looked at the parking lot and gave the keys to Lin Yi. "You're in charge of getting the car here."
Lin Yi smiled bitterly as he took the keys. Neither of the cars had left, and Mengyao wouldn't be able to move the car out of the parking lot.
But it wasn't a problem for Lin Yi. He got in the car with the keys, and after a couple of shifts, the car was out. Lin Yi got out of the car and sat in the backseat.
Mengyao was a little pissed. "You want me to be your driver?"
"But … I really don't have a license …" Lin Yi said helplessly. "What if I get detained for fifteen days?"
"......" Mengyao was speechless. Who'd dare detain you if you and Lingshan had that kind of relationship? She didn't say anything, though. She got into the driver's seat and started the car.
"Yao Yao, are we still going for fried mushrooms today?" There was a food street not too far away from the business street, and there were a lot of food stalls there at night. The two of them had gone there the last time they went shopping, and Yushu couldn't help but drool at a fried mushroom stall every time she thought about it.
Mengyao was just about to say "Sure" when she remembered Lin Yi in the backseat. She turned around. "Hey, are you coming or not? I'll leave you at home if you're not. "
"Of course, it's just eating, right? I'm good at it! "Lin Yi nodded seriously.
"......" Mengyao didn't know what to say- there were all sorts of things in this world, but she'd never seen anyone boast about being an expert in eating like this … Mengyao wanted to ask if this guy was good at taking a shit as well, other than eating …? But that wasn't a pretty word, and Mengyao didn't say it out loud since she was a girl.
"Ha, Shield Bro, we're really kindred spirits! I'm good at it too!" Yushu said excitedly, as if it was fate.
Mengyao didn't know what to say … How embarrassing! It was too embarrassing.
"I like fried mushrooms, what about you?" Yushu didn't see the look on Mengyao's face as she chatted excitedly with Lin Yi.
"I like fried chicken." Lin Yi said.
"Ahem … …" Mengyao couldn't take it anymore. "Haven't you guys heard of gutter oil?"
"Yeah, Yao Yao, but what does gutter oil have to do with fried mushrooms?" Yushu asked, dumbfounded.
"Ugh … …" Mengyao floored the gas pedal, and the S5 shot out. This was the only way she could vent her frustration- she was completely defeated.
Lin Yi was a little puzzled- Yushu didn't seem like such an idiot, did she? Why didn't she know the connection between gutter oil and fried mushrooms? But Lin Yi understood that the girl was doing it on purpose when he saw that faint smile on her lips.
There wasn't a parking spot on the street, and there were quite a few cars parked there as well. Mengyao frowned- finding a parking spot was the most annoying thing to her every time she went out.
The number of private cars in Songshan had been increasing at an alarming rate for the past two years, and what depressed Mengyao the most was the sudden increase in the number of private cars after she got her license … …
"Stop." Mengyao said to Lin Yi after getting out of the car. "I'll go eat with Shu, you buy whatever you want, don't worry about us."
