☆, Chapter 85 What if I get fat?
Lu Congxu reached out and rubbed her head. "I asked my assistant to buy some crab burgers and have been waiting for you to come over."
"I..." Wen Mianyu couldn't help swallowing her saliva. She really liked the crab burger, especially the soup that went with the rice. It was simply delicious.
Unfortunately, in her previous life, she had to maintain her figure and never dared to eat as much as she wanted.
After her rebirth, she gradually discovered that Su Moli's body had an amazing physique and she really wouldn't gain weight no matter how much she ate. Unfortunately, she was short of money now and couldn't spend all her money on food.
"I think it's cooler here, so I came here to eat." Wen Mianyu finally couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food and didn't say no.
Lu Congxu smiled and said, "It's a bit stuffy in the car with the air conditioning on. I'll ask my assistant to bring something over so we can eat together."
"No need." Wen Mianyu stood up holding the lunch box, "It's fine in the car too."
It was cool under the tree, but the dust from the coming and going of people was a bit thick. Wen Mianyu didn't mind eating here, but she really couldn't bear to see the mysophobic Lu Congxu eating here and being watched.
The two returned to the car together, and the assistant took the food out of the thermal box and placed it on the table.
As soon as the lid of the crab burger was opened, the aroma wafted into the car. Wen Mianyu couldn't help swallowing her saliva. She was really hungry after a chaotic morning.
Lu Congxu handed her a pair of disposable gloves and said, "I asked the restaurant to double the amount of female crabs and fresh shrimps. We have a longer lunch break, so you can eat slowly."
"Yeah." Wen Mianyu nodded, put on gloves and picked up a shrimp to peel.
Now she was not so afraid of being alone. She had to deal with it head on. Some things had to be made clear. She couldn't avoid it forever.
She really doesn't love Lu Congxu to the point of life and death, and cannot respond with the same amount of feelings, but if Lu Congxu doesn't mind, she can try to date him and slowly cultivate feelings.
Wen Mianyu had prepared herself mentally and even thought of a response to the confession, but for some reason, Lu Congxu did not mention what happened last night in the following conversation.
Lu Congxu rarely spoke much, but he talked about ordinary things, from filming to scripts, to extras, and finally to dinner.
"What do you want to eat tonight?" Lu Congxu pushed a plate of peeled shrimps in front of Wen Mianyu.
Wen Mianyu waved her hand, "No need to peel it for me, I can do it myself, just eat it quickly."
"I'm full." Lu Congxu took another crab and peeled it.
Wen Mianyu felt very embarrassed and confused by the service. If she hadn't heard Xu Hong admit it in person this morning, she would have suspected that Ye Qianan had just talked nonsense last night.
Does Lu Congxu really like her? Why doesn't he say anything?
Wen Mianyu glanced around again and again, and finally couldn't help it, "Don't you have anything to say to me?"
"What?" Lu Congxu looked at her.
“…” Wen Mianyu opened her mouth in silence.
"Chenzui came to see you just now, but he couldn't get through to you on the phone." Lu Congxu suddenly brought up this matter.
Wen Mianyu paused and said, "My phone was on silent mode when I was filming. Maybe I forgot to turn it on."
"Then do you want to reply to him now?" Lu Congxu asked.
"No, my hands are all greasy. Let's talk about it after dinner." Wen Mianyu stuck out the tip of her tongue and sucked the juice on the finger gloves.
Lu Congxu looked at her and his eyes darkened. He picked up the ice water on the table and took a sip.
The next second, the car door suddenly opened, and the assistant got in with a large bowl of mung bean soup. "Brother Lu, Director Lin sent this over. He said everyone should drink some to cool down."
"Put it here." Lu Congxu moved the cup beside him to make room.
"Xiao Li, have a drink too. It's too hot today." Wen Mianyu took out an empty cup from the box.
The assistant shook her head and said, "No need, Sister Jasmine. I just had a drink. I shared a drink with Director Lin and also listened to some gossip."
"What gossip?" Wen Mianyu asked curiously.
"It's Team B. It seems Chen Zui and Ye Qian'an are having a bit of a conflict." The assistant sat down next to Wen Mianyu and said, "Ye Qian'an's first filming, and I heard his acting wasn't very good, with a lot of NGs. Chen Zui, who was acting opposite him, complained about it, and Ye Qian'an felt disrespected, so the two of them started arguing."
"Are they really arguing?" Wen Mianyu was a little unbelievable. There were so many people on the set, and Ye Qianan was the most shameless hypocrite.
"Not only were they arguing, but I heard they almost got into a fight!" The assistant said with an exaggerated expression, "I'm not afraid of that young master Chen Zui's temper. Ye Qian'an has been in the industry for so many years and is already a senior. How could a junior give him a hard time? I heard that both of them had their fists raised. Luckily Luo Zhifan intervened, otherwise the assistant director might not have been able to stop them alone."
"Then how did it end? Did you continue filming after the quarrel?" Wen Mianyu asked with a gloating look as he scooped a spoonful of soup and poured it on the shrimps.
"No, they're frozen. Director Lin just went over and is probably trying to persuade them right now. I don't know how he's doing." The assistant said, "Director Lin can't let them interfere with the filming!"
"That's right. After all, we all came here with signed contracts." Wen Mianyu poured the shrimps into the rice and made a rice bowl, which looked particularly appetizing.
The assistant, who had just finished his meal, was so greedy that he couldn't resist the temptation of the delicious food and got off the car on the pretext of having something to do.
The car door closed, and Wen Mianyu scooped a spoonful of rice into her mouth, chewing while mumbling, "Chen Zui just came to see me, could it be that they had a quarrel?"
"Maybe." Lu Congxu put the peeled crab roe into her bowl and said, "This rice is also delicious."
Wen Mianyu slowed down her chewing, "...well, thank you."
Lu Congxu poured another cup of mung bean soup and placed it next to her. "What do you want to eat tonight? I'll ask my assistant to buy it."
"I saw Director Lin bought some vegetables, so we can just cook something in the evening." Wen Mianyu said.
"It's too hot, don't go into the kitchen." Lu Congxu said, "Just buy whatever you want to eat."
"Uh..." Wen Mianyu hesitated.
After peeling the last shrimp in the casserole, Lu Congxu took off his gloves and said, "You can think about it slowly."
Wen Mianyu swallowed the food in his mouth and finally realized something was wrong.
Lu Congxu seemed a little too nice to her today.
Of course, Lu Congxu has always been very nice to her, but that kindness was based on the position of good friends and did not cross the line.
Now, Lu Congxu is gentle and attentive, just like a... boyfriend.
The gentle tone and meticulous care made Wen Mianyu flattered and quite uncomfortable.
Of course, this kind of discomfort doesn’t mean it’s annoying, it’s just a little embarrassing, making people’s heart beat faster for no reason and afraid to look at each other.
"Actually, I can eat anything. I'm not picky about food." Wen Mianyu lowered her head and stirred the rice in the bowl.
"But eating what you like will make you happier." Lu Congxu said in a gentle and pleasant tone, "You will eat more too."
"Yeah, hehe..." Wen Mianyu laughed foolishly, "But you can't eat too much, what if you get fat?"
