Chapter 70 - Lin Yi's Weakness
Mengyao and Yushu couldn't really eat much, after all. Before Lin Yi came, they'd always be left with more than three-quarters of their food. But for the sake of balanced nutrition, Faubert still stuck to four dishes and one soup every day, with at least three dishes and one soup.
Even the best chef couldn't make too little of a dish. Not only would it be difficult to control the heat, but it'd also be difficult to control the balance of the seasonings. In order not to affect the taste, it was better to stick to the normal size.
Mengyao found the food tasteless after a couple of bites. Before Lin Yi came, she and Yushu would talk about interesting topics as they ate, and the meal would take more than half an hour. She didn't know why, but the scene of Lin Yi standing up for her at the bank kept popping up in her mind.
Was this guy an idiot, or was he serious about his job? There was no point in risking his life for a few tens of thousands, was there? Mengyao didn't know where her father found a guy like this, but her dislike for Lin Yi seemed to have lessened quite a bit.
Was it because he saved her yesterday? Fine, she'd keep him by her side for now. It wasn't a bad idea to have him as a fighter.
"I'm full." Thinking back to her attitude towards Lin Yi, she felt that it was a bit too much to let him eat her leftovers.
"What's wrong? Yao Yao, why're you eating so little? " Yushu looked at Mengyao, a little surprised- the girl had only moved her chopsticks a few times, and it was still vegetables.
"It's nothing, just a little tired." Mengyao shook her head. "I'm going upstairs. Get Lin Yi to eat with you."
"Ah?" Yushu blinked. What was Mengyao up to?
Mengyao felt a little irritated- the guy she hated the most had saved her yesterday, and now he was putting on airs when she was trying to be nice to him! Hmph, forget it if you don't want to eat. I won't eat either. You don't want to eat if you want.
Yushu blinked in confusion as she looked at Mengyao's exhausted figure. Could it be that what happened last night had scared her? That's not right. It's been a day and a night. Isn't his reaction a little too slow?
Yushu put down her chopsticks and ran to Lin Yi's room, knocking on the door. "Hey, Shield Bro, come out and eat!"
Lin Yi opened the door and looked at Yushu. "You called?"
"Would I call Yaoyao Shield bro? In this villa, you're the only one who can be called brother, right? " Yushu slapped her forehead. "Oh, I remember now, General Weiwu, Doggy Bro …"
"…" Lin Yi was speechless. Comparing himself to a dog?
"Let's go, time to eat. I'm starving." With that, Yushu walked towards the restaurant.
Lin Yi looked at the restaurant, but Mengyao wasn't there. He followed Yushu in, puzzled. "Where's the Miss?"
"You said Yao Yao? She said she wasn't hungry, so she took two bites and went upstairs. " With that, Yushu pointed at the seat Mengyao had been sitting at. "Sit, hurry up and eat. The food's ready for you."
"Oh." Lin Yi looked at the table- the rice was already in front of him. Since Mengyao had gone upstairs, Lin Yi didn't need to be courteous. Yushu was a little weird, but it wasn't a big deal.
Gah gah! Yushu looked at Lin Yi evilly as he picked up his chopsticks and put a mouthful of food into his bowl, shoving it into his mouth along with the rice. Joy blossomed in her heart, and she clenched her fists under the table.
Yay! She'd tell Yao Yao later that she'd avenged her. She ate Lin Yi's saliva yesterday, and today Lin Yi used her chopsticks to eat the leftover rice. Lin Yi ate her saliva, and now they were even.
"Eat slowly. Here's some water." Yushu handed the orange juice to Lin Yi.
"Oh, thanks." Lin Yi really did feel like he was choking at Yushu's words. He took two sips of the orange juice and realized something was wrong. "This orange juice … …"
"Oh, Mengyao left after two sips, and I didn't want to waste it, so I gave it to you." Yushu said innocently as she looked at Lin Yi. "Right, you wouldn't dislike her, would you? You wouldn't go rinse your mouth and vomit too, would you? "
"Oh." Lin Yi replied, expressionless. He knew that Yushu was doing it on purpose, but it wasn't a big deal to Lin Yi. Back in the primeval forest, he'd basically used all his metal as weapons, leaving only a set of tableware for everyone to use. Lin Yi had long since developed this mentality.
Plus … Not everyone could just eat a beauty's saliva. Maybe that idiot Pinliang would go for Mengyao's spit if she wanted to, Lin Yi thought evilly.
Yushu was a little disappointed that Lin Yi didn't have any reaction, but then she remembered that she'd taken a sip of the orange juice before … Didn't that mean …? Yushu couldn't help but blush at the thought.
But after diluting Mengyao's saliva, there shouldn't be anything up there anymore, right? Yushu comforted herself. Yes, that must be it.
"Hey, Shield Bro, I'm thirsty! Get me a glass of water!" Yushu ordered. She was starting to get a little salty.
"Go yourself." Lin Yi didn't even raise his eyes as he continued eating.
"Toilet paper … TV … …" Yushu coughed.
Lin Yi rolled his eyes- this was a secret signal, what was with that? Lin Yi got up helplessly to get Yushu a glass of water. Yushu treated him pretty well, thinking about him even when she was eating. Lin Yi decided to hold it in.
If Huaijun knew that Lin Yi was serving the two Misses all day, he'd probably be laughing his ass off.
He poured Yushu a glass of water- Lin Yi knew that her glass was pink, so he was familiar with it.
"Thanks, Shield Bro." Yushu said sweetly as she took the glass from Lin Yi.
Lin Yi didn't say anything as he continued eating. Yushu was thinking that a little coquettish might make Lin Yi more willing, but she didn't think that she'd be showing it to a blind man. It seemed that in Lin Yi's eyes, the braised chicken on the table was prettier than her own.
In actuality, Lin Yi wasn't blind. Who wouldn't be tempted by a beauty in front of him? But he was here on a mission, and this was just a short reunion. After the mission was over, everyone would go their separate ways, and they might not meet again for the rest of their lives. Lin Yi didn't want to leave too many emotional ties behind.
Besides, he was arranged by Pengzhan to accompany Mengyao to school. What would happen if he messed with Mengyao's best friend? One shouldn't be too much of a jerk.
