Chapter 108
"Master, when the time comes, remember to pretend you're speaking casually, like this... Your expression must be relaxed and natural, and you must not let the leader see any flaws. It's best to..."
Ah Ping followed behind Mu Jiao, patiently teaching her and Yin Jiuyuan the techniques of making requests over and over again. And then, with his worried expression, he looked like a handsome young man transformed into an old lady.
However, Mu Jiao understood Aping's worries very well, and listening to Aping explaining the precautions over and over again in her ear also made her feel a little more relaxed.
She wasn't very good at pretending, and she lacked confidence. She needed to prepare and practice over and over again before doing anything. She remembered the time she spent looking for a job after graduation in her previous life. She had to be incredibly prepared for every company she went to. Even so, she couldn't help but feel nervous during interviews. While she admired those who could remain calm and composed no matter what, Mu Jiao knew she wasn't one of them.
Inviting Yin Jiuyuan to dinner was a very purposeful matter, and achieving the set goal was as difficult as the interviews in her previous life, or even much more difficult. After all, those interviewers were not as powerful as the big devil.
Lunch was arranged in the room Mu Jiao currently lived in. This house had one bedroom and one living room, about a hundred square meters, with the living room separated into a reception area and a dining area.
At this moment, a table full of delicious dishes was laid out on a rectangular dining table in the dining area. In addition to Mu Jiao's two medicinal dishes placed in the middle, the head chef had someone specially prepare other delicious dishes, having somehow learned that she had invited Yin Jiuyuan to dinner today.
Everything was ready, and Yin Jiuyuan arrived as promised. However, when he arrived, his expression seemed... not so good.
Yin Jiuyuan followed the usual two tall attendants, one of whom he had assigned to "watch" him for an entire afternoon in the west of the city. Both had "perpetually icy faces," seemingly expressionless at all times, but today they looked as if they had encountered something sad, their brows lowered and their eyes drooping, somewhat listless.
The master and his two servants all looked glum, surely something wasn't going well at work. The chances of this meal achieving its intended purpose seemed suddenly diminished... I wonder if the two "medicinal dishes" she prepared will brighten the devil's mood? If not, then it seems she doesn't have any other talents... Can't sing, can't dance, can't... Oh, she can make medicine, cupping, acupuncture... Ugh... Those don't really seem like talents anymore. What should I do, Yu Sang.
"Little thing, I took time out of my busy schedule to come here to keep the appointment. Didn't you say you would treat me to a meal? Now you are standing at the door. Are you planning to go back on your word?" Yin Jiuyuan asked coldly.
Today was the first time Little One had asked him out for dinner. But just before he arrived, he received some terrible news, and his mood was down to the bone. But to keep his word and not let Little One down, he still showed up.
Now he has reached the door, but the little thing only glanced at him, then stared blankly at the two behind him. Yin Jiuyuan frowned, his mood became even worse, and he looked at the two behind him with a murderous look. What an eyesore~
Shiyi and Shier were swept by their master's murderous eyes and lowered their heads in unison: men with unrequited love are so scary! ! ! They didn't do anything? They didn't know why the leader's girlfriend was staring at them in a daze. Such innocent Shiyi and Erya...
"Ah, no, bah, no, the dishes are already prepared, just waiting for you to come over!" Mu Jiao was asked by the big devil with a strong unhappy voice, and immediately came back to her senses, and found that she was still standing at the main door, so she quickly softened her voice to make up for her behavior, put on a smile, and turned sideways to let the big devil in.
"You still have a conscience." Somehow, when Yin Jiuyuan heard the little thing say softly, "Just wait for him to come over," his mood inexplicably improved a lot.
It seemed that what he said just now was a bit harsh. Looking at the flattering Mo Jiao, Yin Jiuyuan raised the corner of his mouth, trying to make his expression look gentler. The little thing was a little timid, and he looked a bit fierce, so he couldn't have a cold face, which would easily scare her.
Thinking of this, Yin Jiuyuan tried to speak gently: "Let's go, together."
The four short words, spoken in his cold, ash-like voice, made her seem to hear a hint of timeless tenderness. The voice was a little pleasant, and her heart trembled uncontrollably.
Mu Jiao: “!!!” Did she say something wrong just now?
Why is the big villain so moody? Also, that curve at the corner of his mouth, is he smiling? It looks a bit weird...
The dining table wasn't too big, but it was neatly laid out with a table full of delicious food. Because of Yin Jiuyuan's mood swings, Mu Jiao felt uneasy, even wondering if she was being too impatient. She should have prepared more, at least when the big devil was in a good mood...
But the opportunity was rare. If she didn't seize the opportunity to eat, who knew whether the big devil would be willing to come next time. So, Mu Jiao could only bite the bullet and continue with the rehearsed process, trying to open the two bowls of medicinal food placed in the middle of the table as naturally as possible.
The aroma of the medicinal food was so strong that it overwhelmed the taste of other dishes on the table as soon as it was opened. Even Yin Jiuyuan, who had no appetite across from him, couldn't help but glance sideways at the two small white porcelain jars placed in the middle of the table.
"Brother Jiuyuan, try this medicinal meal I made myself. It's very good for your health." Mu Jiao took a small bowl of it like a servile boy and placed it on the table in front of Yin Jiuyuan.
"Master, I have never heard of medicinal food. There seems to be no testing mark on it. Is this..." Shi Yi frowned, staring at the medicinal food that had no testing record, and cursed in his heart: How is the kitchen doing its job? It's negligent and slack, it's time to give them a scolding.
In fact, if Chef Si were here, he would probably cry out in injustice. God knows, he just thought this was food for that little beast as usual! !
Hearing the words of Mu Tou No. 1 behind Yin Jiuyuan, the smile on Mu Jiao's face instantly froze... She seemed to have forgotten that she seemed to have mentioned medicinal food to Yin Jiuyuan before, and his reaction at that time seemed... very disdainful.
To die before achieving victory is a hero's lasting sorrow. It seemed she was about to become the one with tears streaming down her face. Would this make the great villain even more upset? What should she do now? Her only real talent was making medicinal dishes...
She regretted not signing up for the interest training course at the orphanage because she was too busy. Otherwise, she could at least divert the attention of the big devil...
"No need, it looks very good, little one. Is this the 'medicinal food' they mentioned that can cure gene collapse syndrome?"
The little guy was lively and happy eating the soup she made the moment before, but the next moment he seemed to be hit by frost because of Shiyi's words.
Yin Jiuyuan immediately interrupted Shi Yi's words, picked up a bowl of yam and meat soup and stirred it gently with a spoon. The fragrance was refreshing, different from any other food, and it seemed to make people feel refreshed both physically and mentally!
"Yes, Brother Jiuyuan, don't worry. The medicinal food I made is not poisonous and has only benefits and no harm to your body. If you don't believe me, I'll drink it first." Mu Jiao was waiting to be sentenced to death the previous second, and was reborn the next second because of Yin Jiuyuan's words.
In order to prove that her medicinal food was not poisonous, she immediately took the lead and took a bowl of freshly prepared medicinal food and drank two big gulps...
"No need, I..." I believe you.
The action was done in one go, and Yin Jiuyuan didn't even have time to say the next few words.
Then……
