Chapter 27 Return the Dumplings
Ye Ying felt relieved at first, but then she thought, since he drank up all the soup, he probably didn't eat enough.
"Ji Lianqi, are you not full? If not, I have more here."
As she spoke, Ye Ying pushed the remaining half bowl of dumplings in front of Ji Lianqi and suggested generously:
"If you're not full, eat more."
Ji Lianqi glanced at the half bowl of dumplings and shook his head quickly: "No, I'm full."
But at this moment, Ye Ying completely believed that Ji Lianqi was just embarrassed.
"You must be hungry. Don't be embarrassed! I'll help you!"
Then he quickly put the remaining dumplings in his bowl into Ji Lianqi's empty bowl.
"Eat it. I'll put it in your bowl!"
Ji Lianqi stared at the dumplings from Ye Ying's bowl, then looked at Ye Ying, and slowly frowned.
Honestly, he's a bit...
I really feel a little disgusted.
Although he said that he doesn't care too much about appearance and values the heart more, the current situation between him and Ye Ying is just that of a partner living together and there is no love between them.
So, considering their current situation, it is really hard for him to accept eating dumplings that Ye Ying has eaten.
Seeing the hesitant look on Ji Lianqi's face, Ye Ying's briefly absent EQ finally returned.
She quickly put the bowl away and said, "Forget it, forget it. If you're not hungry, don't eat it."
Ji Lianqi breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the bowl of dumplings that Lin Ranran brought him and went out.
Lin Ranran was quite happy to see Ji Lianqi, but her expression changed immediately when she saw that the dumplings she sent were taken back intact.
"Brother Lian Qi, why don't you eat?"
Ji Lianqi put down the bowl of dumplings and said, "I'm full, thank you Ranran. You can save this for Lin Jie to eat when he's hungry tonight."
"But..." Lin Ranran glanced at Lin Jie who was eavesdropping and whispered:
"My brother isn't hungry! Brother Lian Qi, you can eat some more. Just try it. It's definitely better than what that fat guy...Ye Ying made."
Ji Lianqi shook his head firmly, turned around and was about to leave.
Lin Jie hurriedly called him: "Mr. Ji, come back. There is something going on."
Ji Lianqi stopped in his tracks: "What's the matter?"
Lin Jie pulled Ji Lianqi back into the house and pushed him into a chair: "Why are you in such a hurry to go back? There's no beauty waiting for you."
"What's going on? It's only been a few days, and you've been tamed by Ye Ying?"
Ji Lianqi didn't want to discuss Ye Ying, his face darkened: "What exactly is going on?"
"Can't you sit down and chat for a while?"
Lin Jie punched Ji Lianqi on the shoulder and said, "You talk to Ran Ran, I'll go outside."
The next moment, the door slammed shut.
At this moment, Ji Lianqi had no idea how to face Lin Ranran, and he subconsciously wanted to run away.
Lin Ranran called him anxiously: "Brother Lian Qi, don't leave in such a hurry! I have something to ask you."
But Ji Lianqi opened the door and left as if he was escaping.
His identity is different now. If word gets out that a man and a woman are alone in a room, it will be easy for people to be defined as having problems with their lifestyle.
I ran downstairs and found Ye Ying in the corridor, awkwardly standing on tiptoe to collect the clothes that had been hung out to dry.
Ji Lianqi walked over, took the clothes from Ye Ying's hand, and snatched the clothes rail from her hand.
"Let me do it."
Ji Lianqi's sudden appearance startled Ye Ying, who was completely immersed in how to make money. She sprained her ankle and almost fell flat on her face.
Fortunately, Ji Lianqi's strong and powerful arms held him firmly.
This scene was seen clearly by Lin Ranran who was chasing after them.
"Be careful." Ji Lianqi said with a dark face, "Is your foot okay?"
Ye Ying shook her head and steadied her steps: "It should be fine, no big problem."
She felt that her chubby body was being covered, which was really weird and embarrassing!
Originally, the picture of a hero saving a beautiful woman was so beautiful, but when I thought about how fat I was, my toes were about to dig out of the three-bedroom, one-living room apartment.
As soon as Ye Ying stood up, Ji Lianqi let go of her as if she was a hot potato, and then bent down to pick up the clothes rack that he had just thrown away.
"You are suspicious of everything. Are you up to something?"
Ye Ying confessed: "No. I was just thinking about how to make money, so I was distracted."
She has already figured out how to make her first pot of gold, and plans to test the waters tomorrow morning after exercising.
She hopes to make money and lose weight at the same time, and she hopes that she can make money while becoming more beautiful.
Who says you can't have your cake and eat it too?
Only children make choices. She wants both money and beauty!
She has even imagined her life after becoming rich.
By that time, she must have divorced Ji Lianqi.
So she planned to hire a few gigolos, spend money on them on a daily basis, make them submit to her, and do her bidding!
Thinking it was pretty, she didn't even notice what Ji Lianqi said. Then the clothes she had received were taken back into the house by Ji Lianqi.
Lin Ranran, who was hiding at the stairwell and peeking, left with a look of reluctance on her face. Her fingernails dug into the flesh but she didn't feel any pain at all.
Ye Ying followed him back into the house and saw Ji Lianqi starting to fold clothes.
The clothes were folded so neatly that even she, as a woman, felt ashamed of herself.
"Do you always have to fold your clothes and quilts so neatly?" Ye Ying couldn't help but ask.
"Um."
Ji Lianqi's answer was a little cold and his tone sounded stiff.
He looked unhappy since he returned the dumplings. What happened to Lin Ranran just now?
Ye Ying didn't really want to ask these questions, but she felt itchy inside.
In the end, she chose to keep her mouth shut and not gossip about it anymore.
In this low-pressure atmosphere, Ye Ying chose to go out for a walk to help digest her food.
She walked around the playground a few times and when she came back she saw He Siting in the yard.
There is a foam box in front of He Siting. Whenever someone passes by, she will take out a popsicle from it and give it to the person.
When Ye Ying passed by, He Siting also gave her a popsicle filled with red beans.
"Sister-in-law, it's hot, come and have a popsicle. I made it myself, it's clean and hygienic."
Clean and hygienic....
When Ye Ying heard this Internet buzzword, she felt as if she was in another world.
That was a catchphrase from a host on X-Music who lived in India. She wanted to laugh every time she saw it.
But now that it came out of the girl's mouth, she no longer had any urge to laugh.
Ye Ying took the popsicle, thanked He Siting, turned around and prepared to go back.
At this time, He Siting's voice came from behind: "Sister-in-law, are you going back?"
Ye Ying nodded.
"If you're going back, bring a popsicle for Brother Lian Qi!"
What, give Ji Lianqi a popsicle?
No wonder she searched the entire compound but couldn't find anyone selling popsicles.
