Pei Zhi is a retiree from the Quick Transmigration Bureau. Due to her flirtatious behavior in several small worlds before retirement, the worlds faced collapse, forcing her to return to duty. The a...
Chi Xiuwen retorted, "I'm the mistress, so what are you anyway?"
Lu Mingxu said smugly, "I didn't say I was a good person."
Lu Mingxu simply couldn't stand Chi Xiuwen's pretentious act.
"You're just like me. Neither of us is more noble than the other, so don't look down on me."
Lu Mingxu thought for a moment and then added, "If we're really comparing, I'm actually ahead of you. In terms of seniority, you should call me 'senior'."
Chi Xiuwen raised the corners of his mouth slightly, looking at Lu Mingxu with a half-smile, "Senior? A senior who only knows how to flirt and please women?"
Chi Xiuwen's disdain for Lu Mingxu is actually not much related to Pei Zhi.
However, there is a hierarchy of contempt in the entertainment industry.
At the very bottom are idols, and then there are top stars like Lu Mingxu, who have no real talent and rely on fans for their livelihood.
Without fans, you are nothing.
Lu Mingxu wasn't angry. "That's right, so I pleased Pei Zhi, and she calls me 'senior,' so I'll teach you?"
"If you really pleased her, would I even be in the picture?"
Both were men, and they both understood what Chi Xiuwen meant by his words.
It's simply saying that Lu Mingxu's abilities are insufficient, which is why Pei Zhi sought out Chi Xiuwen.
Lu Mingxu could tolerate the mockery.
To say he's not manly enough is something few men in the world could tolerate.
Pei Zhi was cooking when she heard what sounded like something falling to the ground outside, but she pretended not to hear it.
The commotion outside seemed to be getting louder and louder, with the sounds of fists hitting flesh and curses.
Pei Zhi calmly cooked the dishes, and worried that the two men had exercised too much and wouldn't have enough to eat, so she added a shrimp ball soup.
With that, the five dishes and one soup were ready, and the outside quieted down.
Pei Zhi took off her apron, opened the kitchen door, and ignored the mess on the floor and the two people who looked disheveled.
The dining chairs were also lying on the ground, all askew. Pei Zhi picked one up and carried the dishes over by herself.
Pei Zhi took another set of bowls and chopsticks, sat down, and prepared to eat.
"If you're hungry, get your own bowl and chopsticks and eat."
Pei Zhi seemed unaware that Chi Xiuwen and Lu Mingxu had fought the same way.
Chi Xiuwen got up and went to the kitchen first, and Lu Mingxu also stood up. Only when they were full would they have the strength to fight.
Pei Zhi is a very good cook, but she rarely cooks.
The two of them were like competitors, afraid of missing even a single bite of food; they practically wanted to fight over a dish.
Chi Xiuwen put a chicken wing on Pei Zhi's plate, and Lu Mingxu insisted on putting a broccoli on Pei Zhi's plate as well.
"Eat your own food."
Pei Zhi didn't eat much; Chi Xiuwen and Lu Mingxu cleaned up the entire table of food.
"I'm a little tired and I'm going to take a nap. You two, clean the living room and the kitchen."
On the living room floor, there were fresh flowers, water, a broken vase, a fruit bowl, magazines, and other items.
There were footprints on the sofa, and the coffee table was overturned on the floor.
Clearly, it was the work of Chi Xiuwen and Lu Mingxu.
"Zhizhi, are you angry? He provoked me first."
Lu Mingxu was the first to complain, "He said I'm not manly enough. You know best whether I'm a man or not."
Pei Zhi wiped her mouth with a napkin. "I'm not angry. Your fighting has nothing to do with me. If you're full, keep fighting."
After leaving the napkin, Pei Zhi got up and went back to her guest room, leaving Chi Xiuwen and Lu Mingxu behind.
Lu Mingxu snorted first, expressing his dissatisfaction.
Chi Xiuwen rubbed his temples; he had really been made childish by Lu Mingxu.
How could he possibly argue with an idiot like Lu Mingxu?
Sure enough, being around stupid people will lower your IQ.
"If you want to stay in my house any longer, you'd better behave yourself."
Lu Mingxu was least afraid of threats. "I won't, what can you do to me?"
Chi Xiuwen crossed his arms. "I can't do anything to you. In the end, Pei Zhi went abroad, and you'll be happy."
With just one sentence, Lu Mingxu's arrogant demeanor vanished instantly.
Lu Mingxu gritted his teeth, then finally lowered his head. "What do you mean by that?"
"We've had such a huge fight, have you seen Pei Zhi's emotions fluctuate even slightly?"
“She disapproved of our behavior, so she pretended not to see it.”
Chi Xiuwen paused for a moment, then continued, "If we keep making a scene, she'll find us troublesome."
Chi Xiuwen's words were far too heartless.
Lu Mingxu murmured, "Does that mean we are not important to Pei Zhi at all?"
Lu Mingxu's eyes gradually dimmed. He had argued and quarreled with Chi Xiuwen all for Pei Zhi.
As a result, Chi Xiuwen bluntly told him that Pei Zhi didn't care about them.
"You've seen clearly, it's not too late for you to back out now."
Chi Xiuwen had no time to comfort Lu Mingxu; he was too happy to be upset about his rival's misfortune.
Lu Mingxu suddenly looked up: "Why should I quit? I will never quit in my entire life."
"Okay, living room or kitchen?"
Lu Mingxu felt frustrated for a long time before saying, "I don't know how to wash dishes, let's do it in the living room."
The two of them, feeling utterly pathetic, began tidying up their respective areas.
Lu Mingxu grumbled as he tidied up. He was such a jerk, running to his rival's house to clean up for him.
Despite the criticism, Lu Mingxu still worked quite hard.
He can't be outdone by Chi Xiuwen, otherwise it would really make him seem like he has no merits.
Huffing and puffing, he frantically mopped the floor with a towel.
Pei Zhi had a good sleep. When she opened the door, she was prepared that the two of them might cause another huge uproar.
As a result, the living room was filled with a peaceful and serene atmosphere.
Chi Xiuwen leaned back on the sofa reading a book, while Lu Mingxu played on his phone.
Although there was a galaxy between them, they were indeed sitting on the sofa.
Pei Zhi raised an eyebrow slightly. She just took a nap, and these two people had already adjusted themselves?
Chi Xiuwen put down his book: "You're awake. Let me get you some water."
"good."
Lu Mingxu quickly put down his phone. "Would you like something to eat? I'll buy it for you."
"No need, you do your thing."
Lu Mingxu quickly replied, "What's more important than you? I was just waiting for you and killing time."
Pei Zhi took the water glass from Chi Xiuwen and thanked him.
Pei Zhi took a sip of water and said slowly, "Why did you stop arguing?"
Lu Mingxu said somewhat awkwardly, "I won't argue with him."
Chi Xiuwen acted as if he hadn't heard Lu Mingxu's words at all; it was unclear who was refusing to argue with whom.
In any case, it's a good thing that these two have stopped arguing.
"Since you've stopped arguing, sit down and let's have a proper talk."
They should have talked about it a long time ago; Pei Zhi just hadn't found the right opportunity.
Moreover, Chi Xiuwen and Lu Mingxu always bicker whenever they meet, and they can't stand each other. Now is a good opportunity.
