Chapter 404 World Five: An Accidental Fall into a Time-Traveling Romance (44)



Upon hearing his words, Mu Lingxi nervously picked up her rice bowl. She knew that food was the only thing she couldn't let go of, and she couldn't let her food get cold because of talking.

Seeing the girl eating with relish again, the men's eyes were filled with smiles, and they were all delighted.

However, it's time to get rid of this troublesome woman.

Yi Changfeng, Han Jin, and Bo Changling exchanged a glance at each other at the same time, instantly understanding each other's meaning.

After all, even if they didn't see it at first, they understood how Song Bao'er was targeting Mu Lingxi.

Although they failed to win Mu Lingxi's heart, they couldn't bear to see the girl being targeted for no reason.

At first, I thought Song Bao'er was an honest person, unlike Bai Mengmeng, whose jealousy was written all over her face.

But unexpectedly, Song Bao'er turned out to be so sharp-tongued and mean-spirited, actually setting a trap for Xi'er?

Yi Changfeng was very unhappy. How dare someone touch his precious darling?

When he was unhappy, he would naturally take it out on that person, so Yi Changfeng didn't hold back and started to mock Song Bao'er.

"I don't think I've ever tasted any of the dishes Miss Song made. Why don't I eat more of them so I won't have nothing to do?"

Yi Changfeng had just finished peeling shrimp for Mu Lingxi when he used serving chopsticks to serve Song Bao'er a few bites of vegetarian dishes, filling a bowl to the brim.

The dish was a mess, all vegetarian with no meat in it, piled up in the bowl, making it completely unappetizing.

Yi Changfeng's meaning was very clear: if eating can't shut you up, then he'll shut you up with your unpalatable food.

When Yi Changfeng served food to Song Bao'er, it should have been an ambiguous signal in the dating reality show, but it turned into something sarcastic and awkward.

The audience couldn't connect with this couple at all, since Yi Changfeng's actions of seeking revenge were too obvious.

"Oh, I get it! Yi Changfeng is standing up for Mu Lingxi. Song Bao'er's actions just now angered him!"

"I was wondering why the two of them suddenly started talking, and why Yi Changfeng was even serving food to Song Bao'er. Oh, I see."

"Then there's no problem. This Song Bao'er is really something. Of all people to mess with, she had to provoke Mu Lingxi. Now she's angered her protector."

"Hahaha, Song Bao'er must be furious! She probably won't be able to eat a single bite of this awful food!"

Just as the audience said, Song Bao'er's face turned red and white in turns, and she instantly became angry and embarrassed.

However, because she herself had brought this trouble upon herself, she was unable to express her suffering and could not utter a single word.

Looking at the bowl piled high, Song Bao'er felt a bit resistant. She didn't eat much at night, so how could she possibly finish such a full bowl?

Moreover, judging from the expressions of the others just now, even though she hadn't tasted her own dishes, she could imagine how terrible they were.

"That won't be necessary, I'll diet tonight too—"

"Oh, Miss Song has unique tastes. She says she can cook, but we don't appreciate these dishes, so we'll have to ask Miss Song to eat them herself."

Han Jin understood the refusal in Song Bao'er's words and, not wanting her to continue, pushed several plates of vegetarian dishes in front of her.

Song Bao'er looked at Han Jin, who was usually gentle and refined, and saw that he was now being aggressive towards her as if she had done something heinous.

She felt a sudden pang of heartache. She never expected that she had only dug a few pits for Song Lingxi, but how did she end up provoking so many wolves and tigers?

However, Song Bao'er was still confident in rejecting Han Jin, since she had never heard of Han Jin's background and only thought that he was not in this circle.

"No, I'll eat it—"

Seeing Song Bao'er's disgusted expression and her complete lack of interest in taking a bite, Bo Changling narrowed his phoenix eyes, seemingly deep in thought.

Finally, seeing that Song Bao'er seemed about to refuse again, Bo Changling uttered two words, which immediately made Song Bao'er lose her will to refuse.

"cooperate."

Upon hearing Bo Changling's words, Song Bao'er felt as if struck by lightning. She was fearless, after all, she had been raised by the Song family with great care.

However, the only thing she feared was the project between the Song family and the Bo family. If she ruined it, she would never be able to be proud again.

She knew that the Song family was cooperating closely with the Bo family; to be precise, the Song family was the one eagerly seeking cooperation.

Those orders are nothing to the Bo Group; they can do them for whoever they want, and they can do them even without the Song family.

But the Song family is different. Most of their businesses have been hit by the economic downturn, and many of their factories have closed down.

The large orders from the Bo Group today were secured with great difficulty by his own father.

Furthermore, the father said that they would continue to cooperate with the Bo Group in the future, and they would strive to secure more and more orders in order to restart the factory.

Now, Song Bao'er didn't expect that Bo Changling would suddenly bring up this matter. If she ruined the family's cooperation, she would definitely be in deep trouble.

She forced a smile, afraid of giving herself away, and quickly picked up her chopsticks to eat a few bites of the dish she had made.

The mushrooms' raw, vegetable-like taste and the tomatoes' earthy, earthy taste filled my mouth; it was so unpleasant I almost vomited.

But there was nothing she could do; with so many eyes watching, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and swallow it.

"It really tastes bad, I—"

Don't waste food!

Yi Changfeng didn't care. He had never been used like this before, and no one wanted to hurt the girl he had his eye on.

There was nothing she could do but eat the food she had made, bite by bite, without showing any disgust.

After all, if Bo Changling were to be attacked by everyone, the Song Group's board of directors would definitely have a problem with him.

Qin Che could tell that Song Bao'er disliked these dishes, but she had no choice but to swallow them one by one and pretend to be nonchalant.

After all, he had grown up with Song Bao'er since childhood, and he was instantly moved with compassion.

"Baby, why don't you eat something else..."

Qin Che never expected that a single sentence from Bo Changling—no, just two words—would make Song Bao'er do something she was so unwilling to do.

It seems that what Bao'er told me before wasn't a lie. In that case, I'll have to reluctantly give her up.

Qin Che unconsciously turned his gaze to Mu Lingxi, and seeing her diligently hoarding food like a cute little hamster, he felt a pang of sadness.

He now understands what he should and shouldn't do.

Qin Che's thoughts were easy to understand, especially his bitter look. The other men exchanged glances and understood that Qin Che was no longer a match for them.
