Chapter 178 Choking in a Double Sense
In fact, the plate of fried mushrooms that Xiao Ou had no problems with was basically a "safe" option.
However, Ye Xing did not believe that food that had been "tested for poison" was definitely non-toxic. After all, people's physiques were different, and there was no guarantee that the child might have been coaxed into taking the antidote by his parents before.
He didn't think Xiao Ou would poison him during the meal like he did in the story of stealing the birthday gift. Although the child was a little willful sometimes, he was not a bad person by nature.
Even if his students are in that environment and have made suggestions that have a tendency to break the law, he is still willing to believe that the other party will be a good kid.
After someone started eating, the others stopped sitting and started enjoying the food.
Ye Xing saw that their expressions were crystal clear and his "teammate" didn't give any hints, so it seemed that the food should be normal.
After secretly taking a bottle of universal antidote from the mall, he started eating it without hesitation.
This restaurant is not only beautifully decorated, but also has delicious food.
Even in the game, that's an unusually high price.
He felt that he had made a good deal on this meal, and as long as no one spoke, it would be a perfect meal.
Unfortunately, some parents like to ask questions about their children during this period.
"Xiaobao's teacher, why did you take my Xiaobao away from home?" The lady put down her chopsticks after eating a few bites, staring at the person sitting opposite her.
Inviting her child's teacher to dinner was not new to her, but the previous teachers were all well-known top talents in the education industry throughout the empire.
If it weren't for their relationship, with Xiaobao's grades, he would not have been able to attend the Omega College of the Imperial University no matter how wealthy his family was.
Many children go to school there, not only to learn what an Omega should do after marriage, but more importantly to build up their network.
Some bolder Os would even approach Alphas from other colleges.
Since Xiaobao had already been engaged before entering school, he went to school just to study.
Although she didn't think her little son would be interested in studying hard, he might be able to learn from the excellent Omegas.
Ye Xuan answered quickly, as if he hadn't thought about it, "I didn't lead them. You know my job well."
He really didn't lie: it was Xiao Ou who first suggested running away from home, and he was just following suit; the medical institution where he worked was a subsidiary of the equal rights organization, and everyone at the table knew that.
This evasive answer obviously made the lady very dissatisfied, but she couldn't get angry with the younger ones present.
She absolutely didn't believe that Xiaobao, such a good kid, would come here without this person's instigation.
At this time, Xiaomi wiped the corners of her lips with a napkin and said, "Why would Xiao Ou come to a place like this? It's so remote that I almost thought I was in the suburbs. Fortunately, there were kind people on the road to show me the way, otherwise I really wouldn't have been able to find him."
He had never said before how he got here, and now a "passerby" character has appeared, which makes the consultants wary.
Something doesn't feel right.
Realizing that Xiaomi was moving a little closer to him, Ye Xing quickly moved his chair to the other side.
The soft carpet hindered his movement, and he also realized that the other party might be trying to force him to move over there!
No, it must be redeemed!
Sitting on his other side was Al, who was the future son-in-law in the eyes of the couple opposite.
In this map where gender causes all kinds of problems, it is absolutely a taboo for him to "get close" to an Alpha like the other party.
Xiao Ou's mother had suspected him and Al before. If he goes over to them now, he won't be able to clear himself!
Moreover, if that were the case, his help to Xiao Ou would be considered to be ulterior motives - this move by Xiaomi was truly sinister!
Fortunately, the friction of the carpet was sufficient, and the chair hardly moved far, and no one noticed it except the two people fighting.
He felt that the opponent might have more than one trick up his sleeve. He couldn't just sit there and work hard any longer, but had to be on guard at all times.
Seeing that the man resolved the crisis with a counter-measure, Xiaomi's smile disappeared from his face.
After a long sigh, he pretended to be entangled and said: "Actually, there is one thing I am not sure about. I don't know whether I should say it..."
"You can say whatever you want," Xiao Ou immediately responded to his sweetheart, "Speak freely!"
He is willing to listen to whatever Xiaomi says!
Ye Xuan held his forehead with his hand. What the child said now made him feel that the plate of fried mushrooms was poisonous.
I feel like I'm almost out of my mind, but you're still eating?
The young master almost took up the entire plate!
The mushrooms were already extremely delicious, and Xiao Ou liked them more and more the more he ate them, and he didn't even hear what his sweetheart said before.
I didn't hear these words until I couldn't eat any more.
Someone thought that this student was just here to cause trouble for him.
Wouldn't it be okay to just ignore what that guy said?
If you take this, you will be in trouble.
Sure enough, after Xiaomi had prepared, he said, "The kind person who showed me the way said that he seemed to have seen Xiao Ou, but he didn't come alone. As for the person who came with me, it was naturally——"
"O." Al suddenly uttered a syllable, interrupting the other party's words.
In Ye Xuan's opinion, this interruption, which was nothing but nonsense, actually saved him!
It is an honor to have such a partner!
Those who can join the equal rights organization are naturally Omegas, not to mention Alphas, even Betas are not allowed.
This meaningless but reasonable remark directly choked back everything Xiaomi had intended to say.
His rhythm was completely disrupted, but he couldn't lose his temper.
Not to mention that he still has to maintain his own image. The fact that "the other party is Brother Al" is enough to make him throw away his weapons.
Ye Xuan guessed correctly, these three childhood sweethearts are all very love-sick.
Seeing that Xiaomi didn't mention anything else, he breathed a sigh of relief.
It goes without saying that this person is going to say something like "The person in the same industry looks like Xiao Ou's teacher." Although it is true, it certainly cannot be heard by Xiao Ou's family at this critical juncture.
Xiaomi indeed thought so, and his prediction was more logical than that of a real NPC.
What he wanted to say was something a little euphemistic: "Xiao Ou never gets so close to strangers. At that time, the kind-hearted person saw the two of them communicating. That person was probably Xiao Ou's acquaintance in the equal rights organization."
Needless to say, everyone understands that, what kind of acquaintances could this young master Xiao Ou have in the equal rights organization?
Isn’t that the consultant of the medical institution, his “good teacher”?
After being choked by her lover's words, Xiaomi stuffed a few mouthfuls of rice fiercely - in Ye Xuan's opinion, the other party's dining etiquette was actually still elegant and impeccable.
However, elegant dining etiquette does not mean that you will never make mistakes. When he took the third bite quickly, he choked on his food.
He wanted to cough, but out of consideration for everyone at the table except the consultant, he held it back.
After taking a few sips of tea, he still felt uncomfortable.
It's so uncomfortable, I feel like I'm suffocating.
He looked at the people around him hopelessly.
He wouldn't go to see Xiao Ou, because that guy might say something disgusting like "How about I help you suck it out?"
As for the people on the other side… they work in medical institutions, so they should know something!
Ye Xing received the look that could be described as "seeking help" and raised his eyebrows.
Yo, isn’t this the “villain” who tried to harm him several times but failed?
How come he became so embarrassed after not paying attention for a few seconds?
This is a good opportunity to make the other party owe him a favor. With that favor, it will be easier for him to get the other party to join his gang.
I was originally hoping for some opportunity, but now it seems to have come without any effort.
He pushed his untouched drink over calmly.
Fortunately, the tablecloth was very slippery and there was almost no resistance when pushing it. If it was like the carpet just now, there would be no way it would not make any noise.
The drink itself didn't do much, but he added a miracle drug he found in the mall.
Just take a sip and your esophagus will be unobstructed. There is just one minor side effect - your intestines will also become extra unobstructed within a day.
He did not tell the other person about this side effect, but encouraged the other person to drink it with an affirmative look.
It may just have some laxative effect, and it won't do any harm to the human body.
Xiaomi didn't think the consultant had the courage to poison her in person, so she drank it.
He took a small sip carefully, and surprisingly, the medicine worked!
This person might not be what he imagined.
Looking at the "opponent" who he originally thought was just lucky, he felt that the other party's luck was too good.
It’s as if this world is serving one party.
Xiaomi didn't think about it too much, because if he thought about it any further, the game would become something else.
Ye Xuan was shocked when he saw the character who seemed to understand his identity and the nature of the world.
In fact, this is also because he has never played games. In fact, many games have the setting that "the game characters realize that the world they live in is a game."
However, he had seen scenes of breaking the fourth wall in performances of the school drama club, so he was not completely unfamiliar with it.
The meal seemed to end without incident, and the consultant even thought of packing up the leftovers.
The dishes on the table are super expensive, it would be a pity not to take them away.
Besides, the lady looked like she wanted him to take away what he couldn't finish, so didn't that mean he should take it away?
So he interrupted Oppa who was checking out without any psychological burden, and added several take-out boxes and just enough take-out bags to the bill.
Good restaurants are different. Even the take-out boxes and bags look so good.
Of course, the price is also very "good-looking".
Before he left with his wooden lunch box and thermos bag, he exchanged contact information with Xiaomi in a corner where no one noticed.
Thanks to modern technology, isn’t it faster to scan a code than to remember the number?
In barely a second, they sneakily completed it.
Looking at the people in front, they had only taken two or three steps.
