Chapter 18 Su Lingyu brought breakfast to apologize
Ding Dong~
Ding Dong~
Ding Dong~
The doorbell rang three times persistently.
Jiang Yuli walked towards the door in a daze.
Zhao Kai knew the password to the house and also had the fingerprints on the door.
Others... probably don't know he lives here.
Is it the property?
He opened the door without warning.
What came into view was Su Lingyu's face with a sweet smile.
"Hi, uncle! Good morning!" Her voice was clear and apologetic. "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry about last night! I woke up at three in the morning, and I thought the restaurant would have closed long ago, and you wouldn't be stupid enough to wait until then, so... I bought breakfast and came to apologize."
She picked up the breakfast in her hand and blinked at him: "For the sake of this breakfast, can you forgive me?"
Jiang Yuli froze at the door, forgetting to react for a moment.
Happiness comes too suddenly.
He thought Su Lingyu had completely forgotten him, but she showed up with breakfast and an apology.
This feeling of being valued made him feel warm in his heart.
"good."
His voice was a little hoarse, and he couldn't find any reason not to forgive her.
He wanted to have a future with her.
Su Lingyu was obviously relieved: "Then can I go in?"
"Um."
He stepped aside, placed the slippers at her feet, and took the heavy breakfast bag.
That store is not close to here, and it's only a little after seven o'clock...
She gets up very early.
"Uncle, if you're still angry..." She put on her shoes, took a step closer, and smiled slyly, "I can make you a video of 'Admitting Mistakes'. I guarantee that after watching it, you'll immediately feel soft-hearted and want to transfer a million to me!"
Jiang Yuli put breakfast on the table and asked curiously, "What is 'Admitting Mistakes in the Eighth Company'?"
"It's just the confession version of 'The Eighth Company of Acting Like a Baby'."
"What is 'Aegyo Company Eighth'?"
Su Lingyu walked to the dining table. The chair had been pulled out by Jiang Yuli, but she didn't sit down. Instead, she looked him up and down with an inquiring look, as if she had discovered a new world.
Jiang Yuli felt a little uncomfortable when she looked at him, and his ears were slightly hot. "Forget it, I won't ask anymore. Let's have breakfast first."
As the lunch boxes were opened one by one, the aroma filled the air: Jingshi’s famous fried liver with steamed buns, beef biscuits with a rich sauce flavor, sweet pea yellow, steaming mutton offal soup, and... a bowl of soy milk.
Douzhi?
Does she like drinking this?
"You have to eat breakfast and apologize," Su Lingyu sat down and picked up a bun. "I just feel... Uncle, even though you're older than me, we're only four years apart in age. How come you're like you've been disconnected from the internet and haven't even heard of 'The Eighth Company of Coquettishness'?"
She quickly pulled out her phone and searched, holding the screen up to him.
In the video, a girl is acting coquettishly to the camera as she follows the cheerful music: "Please, please~ Please, please~ Can I please~ I don't care~ You are the best~ I love you~ Baby, kiss~"
Jiang Yuli's gaze fell on the screen, but Su Lingyu's face unconsciously replaced it in his mind.
If she said this to me... let alone one million, I would even give her all my wealth.
He felt his ears getting hotter.
"You want to film me admitting your mistake?" He lowered his voice.
"You want to see it?" she asked, raising her eyebrows.
"Um."
"Tsk, uncle, you've become bad~" Su Lingyu teased him deliberately.
Jiang Yuli pushed the bowl of soy milk in front of her: "No need to take pictures, I already forgive you."
"I don't want to drink this." Su Lingyu pushed the bowl back. "I bought this for you. I want to drink mutton soup."
"Bubble..." Jiang Yuli lowered his eyes, his fingertips unconsciously stroking the table. "You know, I went abroad when I was eight years old. I'm not used to some of Beijing's special breakfasts."
Everything else was fine, but the sour and astringent taste of the soy milk, with its subtle unique fermented flavor, was really hard for him to tolerate.
Others describe it as the smell of sweat after being covered for a long time in summer...
His stomach churned.
But this was the first time Bubble brought him breakfast.
"But come to think of it, I haven't tasted it for a long time. I almost forgot what it tastes like..." He picked up the spoon, as if he had made some kind of decision.
Just when the tip of the spoon was about to touch the soy milk, the bowl in front of him was suddenly taken away.
Su Lingyu rushed into the kitchen with the bowl of soy milk and poured it into the sink without hesitation.
Jiang Yuli held the spoon, frozen in place.
“Don’t force yourself to eat something you don’t like.”
Su Lingyu walked back and naturally pushed the bowl of fragrant mutton soup in front of him, "Uncle, drink this."
She wanted to buy some local specialties, but she forgot that he might not accept soy milk.
Not again.
Jiang Yuli's heart trembled, and a warm current mixed with sourness suddenly surged up.
It has been a long, long time... No one cares about what he likes or dislikes.
Every time I go back to the Shen family’s old house, there are always other people’s favorite dishes on the table.
No one ever cared about his likes and dislikes.
But she cares.
He even made the decision for him, quickly and efficiently.
My throat felt constricted.
He stood up suddenly and walked quickly to the kitchen.
Su Lingyu was biting a braised beef pancake with soy sauce, looking at his hurried back, a little confused: What happened?
The way he looked ready to die just now clearly showed that he didn't like it...
Could it be that he thinks she is wasting food?
Jiang Yuli came back soon with an empty bowl in his hand.
He silently divided the mutton soup into two portions and pushed one bowl to Su Lingyu.
Seeing this, Su Lingyu smiled sweetly: "Do you like the refrigerator magnet?"
"I like it." He answered affirmatively.
"I took a glance when I walked in, and you had already pasted it on!" It feels so good to have the gift you gave cherished.
"Did you wait for me for a long time last night?" She said apologetically. "Actually, I was all ready, but... I was too excited and didn't sleep well yesterday. I started putting on makeup at around four in the afternoon and put on a super beautiful full makeup! It was still early, and I was a little sleepy, so I wanted to take a nap... and ended up oversleeping..."
"Although I was wrong," she changed the subject, a little aggrieved, "but you were also wrong, uncle! You called me! You woke me up! If I didn't answer, you called my brother and asked him to pull me out~"
What's the result?
He just sent a WeChat message saying "I'm here, waiting for you", and then there was no further movement.
Who in the family understands?
She sighed exaggeratedly, "I woke up at three in the morning, and the whole world was quiet... Dinner was completely ruined."
"I'm sorry, I wasn't thoughtful enough." Jiang Yuli admitted his mistake sincerely. "Let me treat you to dinner tonight and tomorrow night, okay?"
Su Lingyu puffed out her cheeks while chewing the food and said vaguely, "It's okay tonight, but not tomorrow night."
Jiang Yuli's heart sank slightly: "You... have a date tomorrow night?"
"Tomorrow is my 22nd birthday, uncle!" Su Lingyu swallowed his food and smiled slyly, "Although I agreed to give it a try with you, you haven't been officially hired yet~ Want to celebrate my birthday alone? I'm afraid that's not possible~"
She changed the subject again, invitingly, "However, your wish can still come true—I invite you to my birthday party."
"I will definitely be there tomorrow night." He had already prepared the gifts.
"Then..." Su Lingyu leaned forward and moved closer to him, her big eyes twinkling, "I'm free today. Can I go to the company with you later?"
She tilted her head and tried playfully, "If you want to date me, you have to let me try. Will it be uncomfortable for me to stay with you? So, uncle... are you willing to let me, your little tail, follow you to the company?"
