Chapter 55 Extremely Low Emotional Intelligence



Harmony Tea Restaurant, Room 404.

As soon as she sat down, Lin Chuchu couldn't wait to ask, "He Xie, what happened outside just now?"

"What? What happened?"

He Xie pretended to be stupid and didn't want to discuss the matter.

"The road is so wide, how did you manage to jump across it in one go?" Lin Chuchu asked, puzzled. "Only a highly advanced being could do that, right?"

"That's not necessarily true."

He Xie smiled and shook his head, lying through his teeth: "Take me for example, I have superhuman strength and well-developed leg muscles, so I can jump over it in one go. I'm not some kind of advanced creature."

Lin Chuchu: Really?

He Xie: "Really, I'd be a dog if I lied to you."

Lin Chuchu: "?"

[Contrast value from Lin Chuchu +444.]

Seeing that Lin Chuchu didn't believe him, He Xie explained, "Don't you believe me? When I was fighting Qi Yue in the ring that day, didn't I just kick him and instantly kill him?"

"This is proof of my innate superhuman strength and the fact that my leg muscles are more developed than those of ordinary people."

Lin Chuchu: "I don't believe you unless you show me your strong leg muscles."

He Xie chuckled: "Which leg?"

I want to see both legs.

When she said those words, Lin Chuchu's cheeks flushed slightly, clearly indicating that her true intentions were not what they seemed.

Seeing this, Lin Xiaoxiao from next door immediately pushed the menu to He Xie and said with a smile, "Ke Ying's brother, order whatever you like. It's on me tonight."

Everyone has a secret that belongs only to themselves and that they don't want others to know.

Lin Chuchu, however, wanted to get to the bottom of things with He Xie, which would undoubtedly lower He Xie's opinion of her.

Therefore, as the older sister, Lin Xiaoxiao had no choice but to step in and save her foolish younger sister.

She needs her silly younger sister, Lin Chuchu, to maintain a good relationship with He Xie.

He Xie glanced at the menu and quickly pushed it back, saying, "I'm just here to freeload, it's not appropriate for me to order. You should order, Xiao Xiao."

Yes, that's very eye-catching.

Lin Xiaoxiao had a very good impression of He Xie, thinking that this boy handled interpersonal relationships well.

He's a young man with high emotional intelligence.

Thinking it over, she pushed the menu forward again and said:

"You should order some. This is how the Lin family has treated guests for hundreds of years. Don't make things difficult for me, Xiaoxiao."

"Just order what Xiaoxiao tells you to order, why are you being so hesitant like a girl?"

Lin Chuchu was as sarcastic as ever, making He Xie want to stuff a banana in her mouth and let her be a quiet, mute girl.

To avoid endless chatter.

"In that case, I'll order a few more affordable dishes first, so that Sister Xiao doesn't have to spend too much money."

He Xie smiled and said.

After saying that, he picked up the menu in front of him and quickly glanced at the dishes.

Cheap ones cost tens of dollars.

The expensive ones cost over a thousand.

Let's just order a few dishes for a few dozen yuan, that'll be enough.

He Xie was thinking just that.

At that moment, several system notification messages suddenly popped up deep in his mind.

[Ding-dong!]

[Task: Create a persona of low emotional intelligence.]

You have extremely low emotional intelligence. You always do things that make people's faces darken and their mouths twitch—it's like having a brain is superfluous to you.

[Reward: A fool.]

Holy crap!

He Xie quickly glanced through the message and couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly.

Both the requirements of the character setting and the rewards for completing the task made him feel very frustrated.

A persona of low emotional intelligence?

Is this some kind of deliberate attempt to disgust people?

And there's another idiot. What kind of bizarre reward is this?

"He Xie, what are you doing?"

Seeing He Xie's hands suddenly freeze and his lips twitch, Lin Chuchu couldn't help but ask him this question with a heart full of doubt.

"fine."

He Xie smiled, then looked at the waiter beside him and said, "Please bring me a high-grade spirit fruit platter, fresh and fragrant beast milk, high-grade pig demon meat, deep-sea fish from ten thousand meters deep, and hundred-year-old spirit mushrooms..."

Lin Chuchu: "?"

Lin Xiaoxiao: "?"

The Lin sisters were dumbfounded. They'd agreed to order something casual and affordable, so why the hell did you order the most expensive items? And so many of them???

[Contrast value from Lin Xiaoxiao: +3421.]

[Character design completion rate: 10%]

He Xie accepted the nearly 5,000 contrast points and 10% character completion with tears in his eyes, and then continued with his low emotional intelligence: "Sister Xiaoxiao, Chuchu, why do you two look a little off?"

"No...it's nothing."

The two sisters surprisingly spoke in unison.

He Xie persisted, saying, "You don't think I ordered too expensive food and are feeling bad about it, do you?"

"That's not true."

Lin Xiaoxiao waved her hand with a forced smile.

She was completely stunned.

She thought to herself, "Didn't He Xie just seem quite well-mannered and have high emotional intelligence?"

How could my brain disappear in the blink of an eye?

[Contrast value from Lin Xiaoxiao +2347.]

[Character design completion rate: 20%]

Lin Chuchu, who was standing to the side, was also a little confused. She immediately kicked He Xie to remind him to watch his words and not to cause trouble.

No sooner had she finished kicking than He Xie retaliated with two kicks.

He kicked it quite hard.

She cried out in pain.

[Character design completion rate: 30%]

Hearing the sound, Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Lin Chuchu and asked with some confusion, "Chuchu, what's wrong?"

"No...it's nothing."

Lin Chuchu said, rubbing her calves.

At the same time, he glared at He Xie to show that he was very angry.

Seeing this, He Xie said with a proud look:

"Hehe, just now Chu Chu was having a leg-strength contest with me under the table. Luckily, I have superhuman strength and my leg muscles are unusually developed. I knocked her out with one kick and made her scream."

Lin Chuchu: "?"

Lin Xiaoxiao: "?"

[The contrast value from Lin Chuchu is +3245.]

[The contrast value from Lin Xiaoxiao is +3858.]

[Character design completion rate: 40%]

The atmosphere was a bit awkward, so Lin Xiaoxiao tried to change the subject by asking, "By the way, He Xie, how are you and Chu Chu's relationship at school?"

He Xie proudly said again, "Xiao Xiao, you might not believe it, but even though Lin Chuchu is beautiful and academically excellent, and is seen as an unattainable goddess by everyone, she is actually my simp."

Lin Xiaoxiao: "???"

Lin Chuchu: "!!!"

[The contrast value from Lin Xiaoxiao is +3858.]

[The contrast value from Lin Chuchu is +3794.]

[Character design completion rate: 70%]

Upon hearing this, Lin Chuchu immediately panicked and quickly tried to deny it, saying, "I...I didn't, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!"

He Xie said with a smile, "Look at you, you're even stuttering when you speak, and you're still trying to argue."

[The contrast value from Lin Chuchu is +1237.]

[Character design completion rate: 80%]

Lin Xiaoxiao, who was standing to the side, couldn't stand it anymore and had to change the subject, saying, "What is Ke Ying's brother, Chu Chu, like at school? I'm quite curious."

He Xie thought for a moment and said, "Aside from not being as good as me in terms of grades, charm, or popularity... being a bit sarcastic, and having conflicts with most of the girls in the class, everything else is pretty good."

Lin Chuchu: "???"

Lin Xiaoxiao: "???"

[The contrast value from Lin Chuchu is +2937.]

[Contrast value from Lin Xiaoxiao +2024.]

[Character design completion rate: 90%]

Hey, only 10% left to finish.

You two, what are you doing?

Once I've completed my mission, I'll definitely make it up to you two.

Thinking this, He Xie was about to continue praising the two stunningly beautiful sisters in front of him.

Unfortunately, just as they made a move, there was a knock on the door.

"Knock knock knock!"

"Hello, I'm a hotel employee here to deliver complimentary items. Would you like some?"

The waiter arrived just in time.

Lin Xiaoxiao desperately needed the other person to come in and ease the awkward atmosphere in the private room.

So he immediately replied, "Yes, I want it!"

"OK."

Soon, a waiter pushed a food cart in from outside.

She picked up a very heavy fruit platter from above and walked towards the dining table with some difficulty.

Seeing this, He Xie silently apologized to the waiter.

Then he stopped her and said, "To thank the restaurant for the free gift, I've decided to give them a performance in return. I'll put on a show for you, miss."

After saying that, he quickly started singing and dancing with great enthusiasm.

?(??3?)?o???: "Listen to me, thank you. Because of you, the four seasons are warm..."

The waitress was completely numb.

She didn't want to watch any performance; she just wanted to quickly put the fruit plate she was holding on the table.

Because this fruit platter is so damn heavy!
