Chapter 49 I've been poisoned, and I have experience...
Chapter 49
I can smell the melon.
Hugs always surprise us unexpectedly.
Haha, there's juicy gossip here? I haven't even had time to prepare!
Judging from Qiao Manyun's expression, I have a feeling that this matter is not simple.
[Was the hug just a ploy to trick him, or did he actually have evidence?]
[The Mushroom Judge is back! (*^▽^*)]
Bao Keming was taken aback by Chu Xingli's sudden question.
He felt that Chu Xingli was targeting him, and subconsciously seized on his guilty conscience, asking in return, "I taught Lin Ning some principles of life, and you're unhappy about that?"
Chu Xingli raised an eyebrow.
That's good. He didn't even have to say it himself; Bao Keming admitted it on his own.
Seeing that Chu Xingli didn't speak, but just looked at him with a light laugh and sarcasm.
Bao Keming quickly added to his defense, "I was just saying it casually, why are you taking it so seriously? It's just a chat between friends!"
“Brother Bao hasn’t answered my question yet.” Chu Xingli was unfazed by his interruption and naturally brought the question back to the forefront.
Upon hearing this, realizing he could no longer refuse the question, Bao Keming immediately retorted vehemently, "Are you kidding me?! Who would do a paternity test with their own blood relative?! Xing Li, you're being incredibly tactless with this joke!"
Chu Xingli didn't seem to care and smiled, "My sister and I had a DNA test done."
Luo Xiaoran couldn't help but smile.
Hugs really weren't lying.
The eldest sister did indeed have a kinship test done with him when he was sixteen because she thought his thought process was too peculiar.
They wanted to see which of the children in the family was actually the one their parents had picked up from outside.
Fortunately, the eldest brother's thinking was relatively normal, so he escaped the clutches of the eldest sister.
"So what? Are you related to your sister by blood? Let me ask you, what if you're not related to your sister by blood? And let me ask you, what if you and your brother aren't related by blood?"
Chu Xingli was very satisfied with Bao Keming's current contradictory expression, which was both terrifying and filled with impotent rage.
Hearing the other party press for an answer, Chu Xingli casually waved her hand, mimicking Bao Keming's tone from before, and replied with a smile:
"I was just saying it casually~ Why are you taking it so seriously? It's just friends chatting~"
Bao Keming: "..."
One hug, ten words from him
[He's in such a panic, he's broken down, he's clearly broken down.]
[The whole family is incredibly beautiful, especially the eldest sister, who is the epitome of a mature and powerful woman, a true feminine woman who tears apart scumbags without batting an eye.]
[It feels like he used up all his ultimate abilities after just one basic attack while we were hugging (doge)]
[hhh, Bao Keming has also become uncertain.]
[My sister and I did a DNA test, and it really is like a shrimp and a pig's heart, hahaha]
After Chu Xingli and Bao Keming's heated exchange ended, Lu Yunxin recovered from the shock of discovering that her cat was pregnant.
She explained to everyone why she had lost her composure earlier.
The rumors about Lin Ning's pregnancy were thus dispelled.
"I'm going to get something to eat."
Lin Ning didn't want to stay there any longer, so she stood up and walked towards the dining table.
He had already eaten breakfast.
However, because I felt a little uncomfortable, I didn't really like being in crowded places.
Chu Xingli noticed that he was in a bad state and followed him over.
I plan to eat a little more with Lin Ning.
The production team prepared some mushroom soup to warm everyone's stomachs a bit in the cold weather.
Only Chu Xingli knew that Lin Ning was pregnant.
Although we had to keep it a secret from everyone for three months, we couldn't just eat whatever we wanted without any regard for the consequences.
Seeing Lin Ning ladle a bowl of mushroom soup and prepare to drink it, Chu Xingli, who had a phobia of this kind of thing, quickly stopped her: "Don't eat it! It's poisonous!"
He thought all colored mushrooms were dangerous.
Lin Ning: "???"
Director: "???"
The chef in the back kitchen: "???"
"Ningning, don't argue with me about the mushrooms." Chu Xingli hesitated, as if she was making a decision.
Lin Ning listened to him obediently.
"Don't believe that colored mushrooms are edible," Chu Xingli said earnestly, pressing Lin Ning's hand down. "I've been poisoned before, I have experience, don't argue."
Lin Ning: "..."
[hhh "Colorful mushrooms are edible? Don't believe it." "I've been poisoned, don't argue."]
[Waaaa, Ningning is so thin, she really should eat more!]
[Haha, Ningning, have you forgotten the lesson you learned from picking a basket of poisonous mushrooms with Baobao?]
[This is hilarious! Ever since that incident, Hug has developed PTSD from mushrooms; she can't stand any mushrooms.]
[Hugs: Do I have to personally show you my wound before you'll listen to me? o(╥﹏╥)o]
Lin Ning chose to listen to Chu Xingli.
He also knew that his current situation was special.
Chu Xingli couldn't say the reason, but stopping herself from doing so was already a way of reminding herself.
Lin Ning had just put down her soup bowl when Zhu Ji, who had been outside in the cold wind to sober up for a while, walked in.
Zhu Ji missed a lot of shows during his time away, but thankfully he figured out the most important thing.
He walked straight to the dining table, half-squatted beside Lin Ning, and looked up at her to apologize:
"Ningning, I was wrong, can you forgive me? I'm sorry."
Zhu Ji looked at Lin Ning, his blue eyes glistening with tears.
The unique melancholy atmosphere of the artist.
...provided that he doesn't speak.
Not to mention Lin Ning, who would feel soft-hearted upon seeing this, even Chu Xingli, who currently harbors a strong grudge against Zhu Ji, would have a fleeting thought that "Could he have some unspeakable secret?"
Fortunately, there was a very clear-headed judge of love, Luo Xiaoran, sitting by.
“Crying won’t help,” Luo Xiaoran said calmly. “You should examine your own shortcomings instead of just crying when things happen and hoping that Lin Ning can calm down and resolve the conflict.”
Having gained some insight, Zhu Ji became more and more skilled and precise in apologizing: "I shouldn't have said that you still had feelings for your first love, I shouldn't have wronged you."
Luo Xiaoran adjusted his teaching approach based on how things were developing: "The harm you caused him is substantial, so we can only talk about whether Lin Ning should forgive you after he pays an equal price."
After hearing Director Luo's words, Zhu Ji wished he could kowtow to Lin Ning fifty times on the spot.
Lin Ning absentmindedly picked up the bowl of mushroom soup, about to drink it, when Zhu Ji stopped her.
"Ningning, you can't drink this! Have you forgotten what happened after Xingli got poisoned last time? She went around catching puppies and even acted as a mushroom judge!"
His rhetoric was similar to what Chu Xingli had said before.
The difference is that one is the person involved who uses the incident to make fun of himself, while the other is Zhu Daniu who uses Chu Xingli as a negative example and avoids him like the plague.
Without a doubt, Chu Xingli, the person involved, was stabbed: "..."
Seeing that Lin Ning's tone seemed to have softened, Zhu Ji seized the opportunity to press his advantage, but what he said was not quite right: "Ning Ning, don't molest me."
Lin Ning: "..."
After a moment of silence, Lin Ning sighed: "...I didn't threaten you."
Chu Xingli turned to look at Lin Ning, genuinely wondering, "Ningning, with this level of Chinese, don't you ever burst out laughing when you two are arguing?"
Zhu Ji: "..."
[The videos "Indecent Assault" and "Threat" are hilarious!]
[That's so mean! Bringing up your first love during an argument!]
[Oh, terrible Zhu Daniu, he argued with Ningning and then provoked the innocent girl to hug him (doge)]
[hhh, Ningning's passive skill—her ears directly translate Zhu Ji's bizarre Chinese]
[Lin Ning: With this level of Chinese, after hearing this, could you even continue arguing?]
"Teacher Luo, please start a class. I'll have my boyfriend listen on his knees."

After discussing family matters and their firm resolve to divorce, everyone had lunch, and the recording of this episode came to an end.
People said their goodbyes, some genuinely reluctant, others just feigning politeness.
Bao Keming and Qiao Manyun stayed at the villa, watching the cars drive out one by one in the yard, maintaining the last bit of decorum before the argument was about to erupt.
On the way back, Luo Xiaoran drove the car.
Chu Xingli was a little sleepy and nestled in the passenger seat, dozing off.
Add to that the weariness that comes from the depths of one's soul after a long period of time followed by a sudden fireworks display.
...Actually, I'm just a little weak.
As the car swayed slightly, Chu Xingli drifted off to sleep.
When she opened her eyes again, she found that Luo Xiaoran had already parked the car in the underground garage of the large apartment they used to live in.
Luo Xiaoran draped a coat over him, and the two of them went out of the elevator and entered the house together.
These past few days, the two of them have been sleeping together, which has made Chu Xingli much less wary.
Seeing Luo Xiaoran follow him into the master bedroom, he didn't feel anything was wrong.
It wasn't until Luo Xiaoran gently closed the bedroom door that Chu Xingli realized something seemed off.
Chu Xingli didn't know what to say, so she could only look around.
He was trying to think of topics to talk about so that the atmosphere between him and Luo Xiaoran wouldn't be so awkward.
"Would you like some water?" Chu Xingli finally managed to ask a question that could be considered a question, and turned to look at Luo Xiaoran.
Regardless of Chu Xingli's motives for asking the question, Luo Xiaoran took it as a sign of his concern for him.
Hearing this, he obediently shook his head: "No need, thank you for the hug."
Chu Xingli: "???"
Huh? Why aren't you using it?
He was ready to use this excuse to slip away from the master bedroom and make a quick getaway, so why did Luo Xiaoran refuse him?!
Chu Xingli leaned against the wall in frustration, unaware that she had accidentally touched a switch.
In the dimly lit room with the curtains drawn, the sound of machinery suddenly came from the ceiling above the two people.
Five seconds later.
Chu Xingli looked up in the direction the sound came from.
They were stunned for a moment.
He raised his hand, extended a trembling finger, pointed at the ceiling, and asked with eyes full of terror, "What...what is this??? Why does it look like a..."
Luo Xiaoran has always been very good at hiding his true feelings.
Even though he witnessed Chu Xingli's panic, he remained calm and composed.
It was as if Chu Xingli was the one who shouldn't be making a fuss and being overly sensitive.
Luo Xiaoran's voice was clear and gentle, but the words he uttered made Chu Xingli feel as if he had been struck by lightning:
"A hug is a mirror."
I heard a definite and wild answer.
Chu Xingli's vision went black, and he almost fainted on the spot.
