"No, if it were just you, it would probably be boring. Whether it's your words, actions, or thoughts, they're all incredibly boring—"
"Hmm..." Tan Xing was even more confused by the contradictory and harsh comments. "So, you just played a not-so-funny joke on me?"
"No, the idea that everything will rebound after reaching its limit—because you, your child, really have no highlights—has become the biggest highlight." Bai Xiaoqian's father stroked the feathers on his lapel: "Look, isn't my outfit very rustic? Both rustic and tacky—but if this style is fully combined, then people will feel that, ah, it seems a little handsome—"
Ah, as expected - Chu Shangli thought, he guessed he would say that.
Bai Xiaoqian's father threw blueberries and white sugar into the machine. As the machine ran, the smell coming out of the air outlet was filled with the sweet aroma of blueberries.
An automatic jam maker?
Chu Shangli had come across this in his previous life. It was a magical tool for making small batches of jam, but it was not enough for large-scale production, and the core would overheat, causing the machine to temporarily stop.
If the fruit is freshly picked, it can retain its freshness to the greatest extent possible - but if it is frozen, it will also retain the unpleasant taste after being frozen.
Chu Shangli has a special feeling for the automatic jam-making machine.
I miss it, but also have a subtle dislike for it——
Because it was this same machine that had caused me to eat awful frozen jam all winter—and the machine broke down, forcing me to use part of my assassination training to repair it.
However, Chu Shangli unexpectedly agreed with Bai Xiaoqian's father's twisted logic.
Indeed, precisely because Tan Xing is so boring, this boredom seems to be unexpectedly interesting - especially when combined with his background -
Chu Shangli even just remembered that he had a great interest in Tan Xing - although he was more interested in the environment and region where Tan Xing lived, but -
As expected, I still want to understand Tan Xing's inner thoughts - after all, he is a type I have never seen before.
"Oh, right—why does uncle always change the subject? It makes me almost forget what I wanted to say—"
Tan Xing let out a long breath—
"What I want to ask is, does Uncle think that the person Bai Xiaoqian is interested in is Young Master Wei Shengfan?"
"Huh?" Bai Xiaoqian stared at Tan Xing with wide eyes: "What did you say?"
"That's right—someone who has a close relationship with Senior Sister Chu Moyin. Actually, the one Bai Xiaoqian really cares about is Luo Dongxia, right? But you misunderstood it as Young Master Wei Shengfan before. I don't know why, but I feel like I can understand it a little bit. After all, Bai Xiaoqian is hardly distracted during class, but she often looks at Classmate Chu Shangli. In fact, that is a manifestation of her concern for Young Master Wei Shengfan—"
"..." Bai Xiaoqian's father's expression twitched.
"Looks like I have to take back my previous comments. You're just a boring brat." He sighed. "Really? I thought you were the type that would be favored by the Family store manager, but you turned out to be a pathetic wretch who was fired within a week of working?"
"Being fired after only one week of work...that's so willful. I should have worked hard."
