The class leader was embarrassed when she saw her mother desperately trying to scoop me broccoli soup, and it was a terrible broccoli soup.
"Mom, how about you also scoop me a bowl …"
Finally, she offered to share the pain with me.
Lin Yumeng's smile was as elegant and charming as Snow White's mother.
"Silly child, how can you fight over food with a guest? Ye Lin likes this kind of soup, so let him drink it all. "
Who likes this kind of soup! Auntie Lin, you're too much! As the class leader's first teacher, you can't possibly make such a disgusting soup, right? Did you do it on purpose? You must have done it on purpose!
The broccoli soup was sweet and greasy. With a bitter expression, I used my chopsticks to pick up a piece of beef from the potato beef stew. I wanted to confirm if the beef was also purposely made disgusting.
As a result, the meat was tender and juicy, which made me overjoyed.
It seems like Auntie Lin didn't plan on being ruthless! You've left me a way to live! With a delicious dish like beef stew, even if the broccoli soup tastes disgusting, I can still force myself to eat it!
But when I was about to happily eat a second piece of beef, Auntie Lin suddenly asked: "Have you ever eaten shredded sweet potatoes?"
"Yes, I have!" I didn't understand the meaning behind her question. The four dishes and one soup on the table did not include shredded sweet potatoes.
"Hehe, before eating shredded sweet potatoes, everyone has to dip it in cold water to prevent the syrup from sticking to their teeth. But some people don't like to dip it in cold water — which type are you?"
Was it a psychological test or something? The chopsticks I used to pick up the second piece of beef stopped in midair. I was too embarrassed to put it in my mouth without answering the question.
"If there's cold water, I'll dip it in …"
"I see, then have you tried dipping beef stew into broccoli soup?" Auntie Lin winked at me with a gentle gaze, "I heard it's a high-end way to eat a French meal. I'm not sure if my skills can be served in a Western restaurant …"
Don't lie! I've eaten a lot of French meals at Ai Mi's place, but I've never heard of dipping beef stew into broccoli soup! And it's broccoli soup with three times the cream? It wasn't easy for me to discover that the stewed beef tasted pure, but I'm about to contaminate it with broccoli soup!
However, although Auntie Lin didn't force me to do as she said, her eyes were filled with anticipation. It was no different from forcing me. I could only brace myself and soak the delicious stewed beef into the disgusting broccoli soup. I got a piece of creamy broccoli beef.
When it was alive, cows, horses, and sheep all ate grass, and the broccoli belonged to them. After it died, the broccoli finally had its revenge!
It only took one step to go from being popular to being ignored! The broccoli soup was like a reverse Golden Touch. No matter what kind of delicacy it was, as long as it passed through it, it would immediately become a dark cuisine that everyone despised!
I ate the beef stew wrapped in broccoli soup like I was swallowing medicine.
"Don't stand on ceremony, eat as much as you can!" Auntie Lin said to me with a hospitable smile, but her eyes were clearly on the broccoli soup.
Do you mean to let me drink this awful soup until I'm full? What kind of dissatisfaction do you have with me that you would use such torture on me?
At this time, the class leader also noticed that her mother didn't have any good intentions towards me. In order to cover for me, she deliberately changed the topic and started to talk to her mother.
"How's mom's research going? A colleague called yesterday to talk about work. Did you make a new breakthrough and you need to go back as soon as possible? "
Auntie Lin works as a researcher at a vaccine research institute in Shanghai and seems to be currently participating in a major research project.
"How can it be that easy to break through a major problem in the world? Come, Ye Lin, drink some more soup. "
The class leader's plan to attract attention failed and she couldn't stop Auntie Lin from attacking my food.
The class leader didn't give up and started to change the topic by talking about Shanghai's public security.
"Mom, you get off work late and often walk at night, so you have to be careful!"
"It's alright. Shanghai's public security is generally better than Beijing or Guangzhou. Although there are scam beauty salons at Hong Kong Plaza that take single women for forced care, I've never been tricked."
I quickly stuffed a piece of stewed beef that wasn't soaked in broccoli soup into my mouth while Auntie Lin and the class leader were talking.
"Scam beauty salons definitely won't trick my mom. I'm just worried that my mom might encounter criminals when she gets off work early in the morning …"
"Then you're worrying too much." Auntie Lin said with a smile, "Do you remember when I gave you a flashlight on the first day I came back?"
"I remember." The class leader blinked in confusion, "I haven't opened the package yet. What does this flashlight have to do with Shanghai's public security?"
Right when she was about to continue explaining to her daughter, Auntie Lin suddenly saw that I dared to eat stewed beef without broccoli soup, so she started to look at me with a gentle and elegant gaze. Although she didn't say 'it's not right to eat like this', I could only ignore my conscience and make a 'oh, I forgot to dip it in broccoli soup' expression. Then, I personally butchered the delicious stewed beef for the second time …
Auntie Lin explained to her daughter while forcing me to continue tasting the dark cuisine:
"The flashlight I gave you might look like a flashlight, but it's actually a taser disguised as a flashlight."
When he said the word 'guard against wolves', he glanced at me.
Hey! I'm a Metal Blood Lone Wolf, not a pervert! Your attitude towards me today, do you think I'm a pervert who harbors ill intentions towards your daughter?!
"This taser is easy to use. It can be used as a flashlight, or it can be used as a police baton. When paired with high heels, sometimes you can beat perverts without the taser function."
Based on what Auntie Lin said, it seems she really did meet a pervert and chased him away without any fear.
"After Ye Lin leaves, I'll teach you how to open the safety of the taser. I'll teach you after he leaves."
There's no need to say 'after I leave' twice! Do you have to say it twice because it's important! Is it because the taser is mainly used to deal with me, so you can't let me understand how to use it!
"I understand. Anyways, mom, you have to be careful walking alone at night."
"You also have to be careful going to and from school by yourself." Auntie Lin seemed to be implying something else.
Okay! Auntie Lin's gaze was temporarily not on me! The opportunity to eat 'pollution-free stewed beef' finally appeared! My hands moved quickly and silently. I picked up a piece of stewed beef and passed it over the three bowls of terrible broccoli soup. I was about to put it in my bowl!
I planned to hide this piece of beef under the rice, that way I could secretly eat it without anyone noticing! I'm so smart!
The class leader saw my movements and in order to smoothly implement my plan, she covered for me:
"Mom, although there aren't many violent crimes in Shanghai, there are still a lot of thieves, right?"
"Huh? There shouldn't be so many that I need to remind you, right? Also, if you steal something with the institute's logo, the thieves would be annoyed if they saw it … "
I didn't understand why thieves would feel annoyed when they saw Auntie Lin's institute logo, or maybe I didn't have time to figure it out because the class leader immediately said something that made me spit out rice:
"Anyway, I think there are a lot of thieves in Shanghai. I've heard people mention it more than once. I think there's a guy called Luffy who always says he wants to be the 'Shanghai Thief King', but he hasn't been caught yet …"
Don't act cute! Class leader, your anime ignorance has broken through the sky! Luffy wants to be the 'One Piece Pirate King', not the other way around! Do you really not know, or are you trying to make a joke in front of me so I can successfully take the stewed beef!
Things don't go as you wish! You said Luffy wants to be the 'Shanghai Thief King' with a serious expression, it made me want to laugh too much! I tried my best to hold back my laughter, but I didn't hold the stewed beef properly. Unfortunately, it fell into the broccoli soup below.
The spilled soup stained the table, and a small portion splashed onto my collar.
Since the table was too full, the napkins were placed on the coffee table a bit further away. When the class leader saw the soup spilled, she immediately got up and went to the side to get a napkin for me.
Using the few seconds the class leader got up and walked to the coffee table, Auntie Lin lowered her voice and asked me through the four dishes and soup:
"I heard Xiao Zhe say you're Sha Sha's boyfriend?"
So this is how Shu Zhe reports to his mother? No wonder Auntie Lin has a weird attitude towards me! When she came back on May Day, her daughter was still fine. But in September, her daughter immediately had a boyfriend, so of course she would be suspicious!
"Auntie, you misunderstood." I quickly lowered my voice and explained, "Shu Sha and I are just normal friends, Shu Zhe was joking."
Auntie Lin's gentle smile didn't change, "Unfortunately, I have eyes, so I can tell what the relationship between you two is like."
At this time, the class leader came back with the napkins. Auntie Lin and I temporarily stopped our conversation, but the atmosphere at the dining table was even darker than before.
"Oh, that's right." Auntie Lin suddenly remembered something and said to her daughter, "I was chatting with our neighbor Auntie Zheng the day before yesterday. She seems to have seen Ye Lin walk out of our house one morning, is that true?"
Huh? She's referring to last semester, when I suddenly had a fever and spent the night at the class leader's house after the basketball match. I even foolishly hugged the class leader as a pillow!
The next day, we were discovered by our neighbors when we went out together! Mind your own business! Even if you saw it, you didn't have to tell the class leader's mother! In this way, I would be even more suspicious!
The class leader blushed when she heard her mother mention it, but she forced herself to calm down.
"That time, Ye Lin suddenly had a high fever and his body temperature was already 39 degrees Celsius. He insisted on not going to the hospital, so Xiao Zhe and I decided to let him stay the night and take care of the patient."
The class leader emphasized the word 'patient' as if she was emphasizing that I didn't have the energy to do anything inappropriate at the time.
"Is that so?" Auntie Lin's smile was warm and her tone was gentle, but she faintly emitted a dangerous aura that made me subconsciously feel like something bad was going to happen.
"Since I work in a vaccine research facility, I've seen a lot of patients undergoing clinical trials, I would like to ask …"
I couldn't help but shiver when I suddenly widened my eyes, as though they were shooting out an icy shockwave that could freeze all things.
"If you're taking care of a patient, is it necessary to sleep on the same bed as the patient and hug each other the entire night?"
