Chapter 54 Milk Tea



To her surprise, Li Ruan didn't even blink and dragged him up, saying, "Let's go, I'm a little thirsty, let's go buy some milk tea!"

She's not someone who hasn't seen the world; these are just ordinary jewels. She could easily fetch astronomical prices at auction with any piece of her jewelry!

The two returned to the underground parking lot, put all the bags of various sizes into the car, and then went to queue up at the milk tea shop hand in hand. It was already 11 o'clock, and there were many customers in the shop. Even though the two were wearing masks, they still attracted a lot of attention.

Xi Leng is nearly 1.9 meters tall, while Li Ruan is considered tall for a girl, with a net height of 172 cm, and less than 180 cm when wearing high heels. When the two of them stand together, they are so tall that it's impossible for them not to be noticed.

After queuing for only a short while, Li Ruan started whining again in a delicate voice, "My legs are so sore. I've been walking for a long time today. What should I do if I can't stand up anymore?"

Xi Leng didn't say anything. Didn't you say you wanted milk tea? You can't just not buy it, can you?

Li Ruan poked his hard chest with her finger again, "Mr. Xi, aren't you tired?"

Xi Leng used his free hand to hold her fidgeting little hand, "We'll find a masseuse to give you a good massage when we get back to the hotel."

The hotel's fifth and sixth floors house a wellness center, offering aromatherapy spas, beauty and body treatments, and wellness massages.

Li Ruan burst out laughing, "Hahaha, my Mr. Xi, you're so cute."

Xi Leng subconsciously felt that he might have answered incorrectly, but he didn't know what he had done wrong.

"How about I arrange a personal masseuse for you?"

He felt that no matter what mistakes were made, spending money was never wrong!

Li Ruan: "...Who asked you for a masseuse?"

Although the two spoke in hushed tones, they were still heard by the people in front of them in line.

The young couple really wanted to laugh. The girl couldn't help but turn around and remind them with a smile, "Is it possible that your girlfriend just wants you to hug her and comfort her?"

Xi Leng: ...

Fortunately, it was soon their turn to order milk tea. Li Ruan ordered a mango pomelo sago and a strawberry sundae. After paying, she pulled Xi Leng away from the milk tea shop.

"Didn't you want milk tea? Why are you holding onto the strawberry sundae so tightly?"

And is that cup of milk tea in his hand?

Don't lie to him if he hasn't tried it!

Li Ruan quickly took off her mask, scooped out a spoonful, and put it in her mouth. Then she pulled off Xi Leng's mask, scooped out a spoonful, and stuffed it into Xi Leng's mouth. "How is it? Is it delicious?"

This was Xi Leng's first time trying this kind of cold drink. It tasted alright. After all, he didn't dislike strawberries, and with the hot weather, eating something cold was fine.

"Um."

"I knew you'd like it, try this one too."

Li Ruan immediately handed the straw of the mango pomelo sago to Xi Leng's lips, gesturing for him to try it.

Xi Leng was puzzled. The two stood on the street, ignoring the passersby. "Knowing I would like it, why didn't you just order two?"

"You really have no sense of romance. I only ordered it because I knew you would like it."

Li Ruan held the straw to Xi Leng's lips again, and after he tasted it, she quickly took a sip herself. "Wow, it's delicious!"

Xi Leng still didn't understand. If they liked it, they could have ordered two more. Why did they have to do it this way? Wouldn't it be uncomfortable for two people to share a spoon and a straw?

"It's already noon, what would you like to eat?"

Li Ruan raised an eyebrow. "Let's go get some skewers. I haven't had them in ages!"

Xi Leng: ...What are skewers?

Xi Sang and Xi Si, who were following behind the two, looked completely bewildered as their young master was pulled into a roadside skewer shop by Li Ruan.

They grew up alongside the eldest son, and the Xi family's background destined the eldest son's growth trajectory to be different from that of ordinary people.

He received an elite education and enjoyed an elite lifestyle from a young age. His wife never allowed him to eat junk food outside, so he had never even tried the milk tea shops or skewers shops that Miss Pear took him to.

Young Master, Miss Li has suddenly dragged you down to earth.

"Are these things really delicious?" Xi Leng asked, looking at Li Ruan who had filled a large plate with various skewers.

Li Ruan nodded, secretly amused. His suit and tie seemed a bit out of place in this small shop, but it didn't matter; she would soon make him fit in.

"Let's go, eat first, and come back for more when we run out."

The two found an empty table and sat down. Li Ruan put the skewers from the plate into the pot, then helped them prepare the dipping sauce. "Can you handle spicy food?"

"Eat a little." Xi Leng's eyes were still trying to distinguish the various colored ingredients in the small bowls. So many condiment bowls, what exactly are in them?

However, the food in the pot did smell really good. His gaze swept around the hall. Good, Xi Sang and Xi Si followed him in. These two, like him, didn't know how to eat this stuff either. They were just like a broken record, imitating Li Ruan as she picked up the skewers.

Li Ruan mischievously added an extra spoonful of chili oil to Xi Leng's bowl. What's the point of eating skewers if they're not spicy?

Seeing that the food in the pot was cooked, Li Ruan picked up a skewer of tripe and put it in her bowl. She didn't forget to call out to President Xi, "Eat up, take whichever you like, or do you want to say hello to them before you eat?"

Xi Leng: "What greeting?"

"You look like you're facing a multi-billion dollar deal. Can't you relax a little?"

The two were originally sitting facing each other, but Li Ruan simply moved over, reached out to help him take off his suit jacket and draped it over the chair, then unbuttoned two buttons on his shirt, took out a few skewers from the pot, and used chopsticks to help her remove the skewers and put them in the dipping sauce bowl, saying, "Try it and see if it's good."

After finishing all that, Li Ruan returned to her seat.

Xi Leng decided to make the best of it, picked up a cauliflower and put it in his mouth. He couldn't taste anything else, but he could taste the spiciness.

Previously, his meals were prepared by a professional chef, and the taste was on the lighter side, so it's normal that he wasn't used to spicy food.

He glanced up at the mischievous little girl across from him, suppressed his urge to drink cold water, and continued eating.

He quickly got used to the spiciness and found enjoyment in eating skewers. "What's this yellow thing?"

Li Ruan was surprised that he could be so patient. She couldn't help but tease him, "That's beef tripe. It's good for replenishing blood and promoting growth. If you eat more, Mr. Xi might grow even taller!"

Xi Leng looked up, pursed his slightly red lips, and, unusually, started joking with Li Ruan: "Where do you think I need to grow any longer? Is there something about me that you're not satisfied with?"

The shop was already full, and the two men's outstanding looks attracted a lot of attention, so Xi Leng lowered his voice to a very low level, which made his voice even more magnetic and seductive.

Li Ruan was almost tempted by him, but fortunately, her Dao heart was firm and she did not transform on the spot!
