“Um…I…”
After taking a quick glance at them, Xingyao lowered her head and spoke nervously.
"I... still want that beef."
He rubbed his fingertips unconsciously, bit his lips, and said with courage:
"I have a date today, and I want to make a perfect dinner..."
"I just looked around the market and couldn't find anything better, so, sorry, even though it's abrupt, I still want to ask, can you give me that portion of beef? If not, that's okay too... Sorry..."
However, before he could finish his words, the little maid's voice rang out.
"Of course!"
Xingyao looked up suddenly.
The one who spoke was another short-haired maid. She called up the purchasing panel, took out the beef, and transferred it to Xingyao's panel.
The maid who had just bought beef with Xingyao put her hands on her hips and said helplessly: "Phil..."
But it did not stop her from transferring the ingredients.
The maid named Phil winked at Xingyao.
"I wish you a successful date. Make sure you win the other person over!"
Another maid also smiled at him: "Wealth will bless you."
After saying this, the two walked away arm in arm.
A little bit of joy climbed into Xingyao's heart, gradually expanded, spread, and filled her entire chest.
Very good!
He smiled so brightly and charmingly that passers-by couldn't help but look back.
Turns out... it's not that hard to speak...
He pursed his lips, unable to suppress the smile on his face.
It turns out... there is so much kindness from strangers...
At the same time, Phil took Demi's arm and walked to a place where Xingyao couldn't see him. He said excitedly: "Didn't you recognize him?"
"Who is it?" Demi looked at Phil helplessly.
"The deputy minister of the Ministry of Mines!"
Phil's gossipy heart was about to burst out.
"It's a date! It must be with that fierce minister! Wow, they're definitely going to have sex tonight!!"
…
The first oasis is in the Jin family’s manor.
Butler Simon glanced at the young master who had been standing in the cloakroom for half an hour and cleared his throat.
"Do you have an appointment today?"
Jin Yi said "hmm", "five o'clock tonight."
Simon checked the time, "But it's seven in the morning."
Jin Yi looked at the dazzling array of clothes in silence.
After a while, he said, "It's hard to choose."
Simon gently reminded: "Perhaps you can go downstairs and have breakfast with the lady and the master first, and then make your choice."
There was another silence.
Jin Yi turned around and said, "That makes sense."
There was incense burning on the dining table and lilies still dripping with water.
Huaying put down her empty glass of milk and glanced at the stairs where the noise came from. "Ah, here they come."
Jinhe picked up the napkin and wiped his mouth, then looked coldly at Jinyi who was walking towards him.
"If you were any later, you could have lunch directly."
Compared to the Pei family’s overly gorgeous long dining table, the Jin family’s eight-person dining table appears much smaller and cozier.
Jinyi politely greeted his parents good morning, then sat down and picked up his knife and fork.
"Sorry for the delay."
"Ah..." Huaying looked at her son, "Isn't today a holiday? Why are you up so early?"
"I have an appointment." Jin Yi said simply, "I won't be home for dinner tonight."
Huaying blinked in surprise and glanced at Jinhe who turned on the screen to watch the morning news.
Although the light curtain was placed upright, a glance secretly peeked out from behind the glasses.
Huaying smiled sweetly, "Are you coming back to sleep tonight?"
Jin Yi: “It’s hard to say.”
"Ah..." Huaying's smile deepened.
Jinhe suddenly cleared his throat.
"There will be a lord's banquet next week, mainly for the upper-class nobles of Baisha Star. All young people of your generation who are of marriageable age will attend."
Jin Yi paused.
If I remember correctly, next week happens to be the Oasis Flower Festival, which is similar to the Chinese Valentine's Day on Tianfu Star.
"If you don't want to dance with an aristocratic Omega you don't know, it's best to bring a partner." Huaying said with a hint of meaning.
Jin Yi ate breakfast in silence.
"Don't you have a date?"
Huaying held her face with one hand.
"Since I heard you say you were dating, it's been three years now, right? When are you getting married?"
Jin Yi choked.
"I think the Flower Festival is good." Jin He pushed up his glasses. "The Flower God will protect you."
Jin Yi put down his knife and fork with a snap.
"I understand. I will take him to the banquet. As for marriage, please wait. I haven't proposed yet."
He turned around indifferently and held his forehead.
——He hasn’t confessed yet.
