Chapter 135 Mimi is Back
Two hours later.
With the two of them carefully decorating, Qiao Yue's room is almost finished.
The room was cozy and comfortable, the bed was neatly made, and the curtains were carefully drawn but slightly ajar, letting in a few soft rays of light.
Yuka was a little tired from all the work, so she plopped down on the beanbag chair and planned to take a short rest.
Qiao Yue sat down opposite Youxiang, holding a plush toy in her arms. "Little Youzi, thank you so much! We'll decorate your room together this afternoon."
Yu Xiang nodded excitedly.
The room she's staying in definitely needs to be planned out properly.
Just then, there was a gentle knock on the door.
"Knock knock knock!"
The sound wasn't loud, but it was exceptionally clear in the quiet room.
"Boss, lunch for Miss Qiao Yue is ready."
Bronson's voice came from outside the door.
"Okay, let's go down now."
After answering Bronson, Youxiang stood up and took Qiao Yue's hand, "Let's go eat, you must be hungry too."
Qiao Yue looked puzzled and asked, "Was that zombie just inviting us to eat?"
Yuxiang smiled and nodded, "Yes, I asked him to prepare it."
Qiao Yue was a little curious.
Is the food made by that zombie edible?
By the way, she doesn't think she's ever seen a zombie cook.
Youxiang has never cooked a single meal; it's always Brother Chen, Sister, and Uncle who do it.
After going downstairs, Youxiang and Qiaoyue arrived at the restaurant.
Bronson was already waiting there. He pulled out two dining chairs with a gentlemanly and elegant movement, then handed a hand towel to Qiao Yue and said, "Miss Qiao Yue, please dry your hands."
Qiao Yue felt uncomfortable being served like this all over her body, as if tiny insects were crawling all over her, making her feel uncomfortable everywhere.
She took the towel somewhat awkwardly and said softly, "Thank you."
Seeing Bronson's thoughtful actions and the exquisitely arranged food on the table with its tempting colors, Yu Xiang couldn't help but praise, "Bronson, you did a great job!"
Bronson bowed slightly, a humble smile on his face. "Thank you for the compliment, boss! It's nothing I should do."
Yu Xiang waved her hand and offered a suggestion.
"Don't call me 'boss' anymore. As a butler, calling me that makes me sound more like a subordinate than a butler."
Bronson nodded quickly, "Yes, miss."
"You can call me 'Miss'."
After saying that, Youxiang turned to look at Qiao Yue. Seeing that he hadn't touched his chopsticks yet, she warmly greeted him, "Yueyue, you should try Bronson's cooking. He said he couldn't cook, so I gave him a few cookbooks to learn from. I didn't expect it to look so good."
Qiao Yue looked at the dishes on the table, which looked and smelled delicious, and was a little surprised. "Are you kidding me? I just learned how to make this. It doesn't look like it at all."
As she spoke, Qiao Yue picked up her chopsticks, thought for a moment, and then picked up the garlic ribs that were closest to her.
The pork ribs are golden in color and have an enticing garlic aroma.
She put it in her mouth, took a small bite, and said, "Mmm, delicious."
The ribs were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with just the right flavor.
I don't know how they could make something out of a zombie that doesn't have a human sense of taste.
That's amazing!
Yu Xiang was pleased to see that Qiao Yue was satisfied.
She smiled and said, "Eat more if it's delicious."
While chewing her food, Qiao Yue said, "I haven't had a proper meal lately, so I'm going to eat my fill today."
Yu Xiang placed the plate towards Qiao Yue, saying, "These are all yours."
Qiao Yue raised her head, her gaze falling on Youxiang, her eyes filled with a complex emotion.
“Little Yuzu, it feels like you're the one taking care of me now. I used to take care of you more. Back then, you were even more carefree than me, and I had to worry about a lot of things. But now, it feels like I can't help you at all, and it makes me feel really bad.”
"Yueyue, what are you saying? You've been a great help to me." Youxiang stood up. "You're on my turf now, so it's only natural for me to take care of you. Don't overthink it."
Qiao Yue: "I'm just worried that you'll get tired. I feel like you're very tired right now."
Yuka was slightly taken aback when she heard this. "I'm not tired."
Although there are indeed many things to deal with and many things to consider now, when Zhuozhuo and the others were around, they would think of many things for her and give her advice.
But now, she must shoulder her responsibilities, and at the same time, she doesn't want Yueyue to worry about her.
"Meow!!"
Suddenly, a sharp cat meow rang out.
It turns out that Mimi had gone to monitor Bai Chi for Youxiang and returned hungry.
It finally found the scent of pomelo and jumped in through the window.
Seeing that Qiao Yue was eating with relish while he was starving, he immediately got angry and fumed.
How can you eat by yourself? You didn't even wait for me!
The cat is working so hard to keep watch outside, and they're eating delicious food? That's too much!
Yu Xiang reacted quickly, scooping up the ruffled Mimi into her arms and gently stroking its fur with her fingers.
Immediately afterwards, she took out a meow fruit that smelled tempting and stuffed it directly into Mimi's mouth, silencing his incessant meowing.
Mimi's originally bristling fur instantly softened the moment she tasted the unique flavor of the Meow Meow Fruit, as if she had used Pantene shampoo, with every single hair lying flat.
It squinted its eyes, enjoying the delicious food with relish, having long forgotten its anger and dissatisfaction.
Yu Xiang turned to Qiao Yue and said, "Yueyue, I'm going to feed Mimi. Let Bronson keep you company while you eat."
After saying that, Yu Xiang hugged Mimi and quickly left the restaurant.
Qiao Yue watched Youxiang's departing figure, her mouth slightly open, but she silently swallowed back the words she hadn't yet uttered.
Wait, can't I feed the cat here? Why do I have to take it outside to feed it?
And is she really that comfortable leaving her with a zombie? Isn't she afraid something might happen?
Thinking of this, Qiao Yue couldn't help but steal a glance at Bronson, who was standing to the side like a statue, waiting for orders at any moment.
He was expressionless and his eyes were calm, but Qiao Yue was still a little scared and couldn't help but let her mind wander.
What if he suddenly attacks her? After all, he's a zombie.
Bronson keenly noticed Qiao Yue's gaze. He silently took out the tablet that Youxiang had given him from his pocket, picked up the stylus, carefully wrote a sentence on it, and then slowly walked towards Qiao Yue.
Qiao Yue immediately noticed Bronson approaching her. Her relaxed body tensed instantly, and she looked up warily, her eyes fixed on Bronson. "What are you going to do?"
Bronson calmly picked up the tablet and presented the message written on it to Qiao Yue.
The tablet clearly displayed: "Miss Qiao Yue just looked at me, is there anything you need?"
Qiao Yue quickly waved her hand, forcing an awkward smile, "No, I didn't order anything."
Bronson seemed to sense Qiao Yue's fear. He pondered for a moment, then quickly wrote a sentence on the tablet and held it up to Qiao Yue again.
"Don't be afraid, I promised you I would protect you."
Qiao Yue looked at the words on the tablet, paused slightly, and asked, "Miss? You mean Xiaoyouzi?"
Bronson nodded.
