After ten years of being raised by beastmen, Jiang Mian transmigrated back to an era where humans raised beastmen. Humans keeping beastmen as pets had become a trend, with beastmen holding extremel...
Chapter 192 Dinner
When Jiang Mian saw this message, his fingers were suspended in the air, and they did not land on the projection screen.
She is not at home now, and she is eating out with another orc.
Just yesterday, I came here to eat with Lin Xuan and encountered such an incident. Today, I came to the same commercial city to eat with another orc, and he was a man.
Why am I starting to worry that the other person will get angry?
However, Jiang Mian still told the truth. If he told a lie, he might be exposed later and the other party would be even more angry. It would be better to tell the truth directly.
So Jiang Mian first told Chi Lin about what happened today.
She did not specify the gender of the person who invited her to dinner, she just said that someone invited her to dinner, and then she took this opportunity to catch the killer who assassinated her with Li Yan.
Once Li Yan interrogates another killer, he will probably be able to determine who hates him so much and wants to kill her.
Chi Lin: Who are you having dinner with? A man or a woman?
Who knew that Chi Lin's first reaction would be this as well.
The focus is really very unified.
Jiang Mian spoke directly without reservation.
Jiang Mian: A man, one of my patients. He invited me to have a meal to thank me.
Then she hurriedly explained.
Jiang Mian: Actually, I just wanted to use him as a tool to lure out the killer again. Otherwise, I would not agree to it under normal circumstances.
Chi Lin: Are you hurt?
Jiang Mian: No.
Chi Lin: Which restaurant is it? I’m in the commercial city too, I’ll come find you.
Chi Lin: Your friend definitely won’t care about my past.
When Jiang Mian saw the two messages sent by Chi Lin, his eyes paused slightly. How could Chi Lin have the nerve to do that?
Although she understood what Chi Lin was thinking, she probably thought it was jealousy again.
Jiang Mian: After I finish eating with him, you can come and pick me up.
This is better than joining suddenly, after all, they only invited him, Jiang Mian.
Jiang Mian was too embarrassed to invite anyone else to come and have dinner together.
The main reason was that it was her that was invited by the young white fox before, and it felt a bit awkward to let someone else come in halfway.
Chi Lin: Okay, send me a message after you finish eating and I’ll pick you up.
Jiang Mian: Okay.
In fact, it’s not just Chi Lin who will come to pick her up. Li Yan will also come to pick her up together.
But it's okay.
"Doctor Jiang, please come in quickly." Fox Nine looked behind him at Jiang Mian, who was walking very slowly because he was reading the message on his brain.
Jiang Mian lowered his wrist and walked into the box with him.
Two people eat together.
Hu Jiu has been serving Jiang Mian meals.
"Doctor Jiang, try this!"
"Doctor Jiang, this is delicious!"
"Doctor Jiang, you must try this!"
"Doctor Jiang, you must try this plate of shrimp I peeled. It's delicious!"
…
Jiang Mian looked at Hu Jiu's enthusiastic words, which sounded like she had a strong desire to share. Her pair of very bright amber eyes seemed to be looking forward to her tasting it soon.
I simply hope she enjoys her meal.
Jiang Mian couldn't refuse for the moment, so he ate a lot under Hu Jiu's expectant gaze.
But she still said: "You eat too."
Fox Nine nodded and started eating as well.
The two of them had a pretty pleasant time having dinner together, mainly because Fox Nine was very enthusiastic.
Jiang Mian couldn't help but feel happy too.
While the two were chatting, Hu Jiu shared his work with Jiang Mian.
"So how do you feel about your work now?" Jiang Mian felt that the other party really wanted her to ask this question. Don't ask her how she knew it, the main thing is that the other party's eyes seemed to be able to speak, and he was looking forward to her asking this question.
"I sit in the office every day now, so I don't have to pick up trash. Every day is clean and refreshing, which is great!" Fox Nine grinned, and his two white fox ears trembled.
"That's great." Jiang Mian gave his affirmation out of courtesy.
"Well, mainly because I have someone I like, and I should pay attention to my image..." Fox Nine said in a low voice with his eyes wandering.
"What?" Jiang Mian hadn't paid attention while eating.
"No, nothing!" Fox Nine tried hard to eat.
After the big meal.
"Thank you for your hospitality." Jiang Mian took out the gift he had prepared from his pocket and said, "This is my gift to you."
Because I treated the other person as a tool, I felt a little guilty, so I prepared a gift.
Fox Nine was completely unaware of this and just stared at the gift box that Jiang Mian handed over with shining eyes.
Mingming's pair of eyes, as beautiful as the setting sun, stared at the gift box handed over by Jiang Mian with great brightness, as if he really wanted it, but his whole body movements seemed a little flustered. "Really, are you really giving it to me? But I don't have a gift prepared for you."
At this time, Fox Nine also became a little annoyed.
Why is he like this? Why didn’t he think of this before coming?
It really lost a lot of points.
Jiang Mian felt a little embarrassed when she saw him like this, as if the gift she gave him was something very precious.
This gift was just her compensation for the other party being treated as her tool. Naturally, Jiang Mian didn't dare to say this out loud.
"It's really for you." Jiang Mian smiled and nodded.
Hu Jiu accepted Jiang Mian's gift and smiled, showing off his eight big white teeth. "I'll give you another gift next time. It's my fault for not preparing one this time."
"No need." Jiang Mian felt even more guilty when he heard the other party say that.
"For use!" Fox Nine said as a matter of course.
Jiang Mian looked at the other person's pair of pure, clear and bright amber eyes, and for a moment he couldn't bear to deceive the other person.
Otherwise she would feel uncomfortable.
So Jiang Mian told the truth.
"Actually, I gave you this gift to thank you." Jiang Mian spoke slowly, "The reason I agreed to have you over for dinner was to lure out the person who wanted to assassinate me, so as to expose the person behind it."
Fox Nine paused, and just when Jiang Mian thought he would be upset, he asked, "Have you lured out the assassin? Could it be the man driving the hoverbike?"
Jiang Mian couldn't help but pause for a moment after hearing this. He didn't expect him to react like this, so he replied, "It's not that man, but he has been lured out, and my orcs have also been captured."
Li Yan has also interrogated her and said he would tell her in person.
Chi Lin and Li Yan had both gotten the results of the interrogation. Although neither of them said who it was, Jiang Mian had already guessed that it was most likely Jiang Yu, the fake daughter of the imperial capital.
"That's good." Hu Jiu breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Jiang Mian again, "You could have told me earlier. I could have prepared and been vigilant at all times to protect you."
"It's okay, it's over." Jiang Mian smiled, "I'm glad you don't mind."
Fox Nine smiled and said, "I don't mind. You can call me if you need any help in the future."
