"Then who's paying for this meal?" Hua Cai closed the menu, suddenly remembering a very important question.
If the male lead is treating, and they are not related and have nothing to talk about, shouldn't she pay?
Shao Feiyang, who had sat up straight after Hua Cai patted his head, suddenly slumped back onto the table, looking dejected. He didn't even look up when he heard this: "Of course, Yi Min is treating."
"Why me? I just came to drop by."
As expected of someone from a business family, he is very sensitive to money matters. Yi Min, who was originally petrified by Hua Cai's bold actions, was instantly activated by Shao Feiyang's words.
Yi Min's complaints were obviously of no use to Shao Feiyang. Shao Feiyang spoke without any room for negotiation: "You've been sitting here for so long. Do you want to freeload? Besides, you can't give a gift when you meet someone. How can you be so stingy? When I met Sister-in-law Jiang, I gave her a red envelope with two million yuan. You're so stingy even for a meal."
With his face pressed against the table, Shao Feiyang curled his lip, expressing utter contempt for Yi Min without any mercy.
Unexpectedly, upon hearing these words, Jiang Yu's expression changed, and a hint of panic flashed in her eyes.
"Feiyang gave you two million?" Yi Min looked at Jiang Yu with suspicion, seemingly unaware of the matter at all.
Wow, this is going to be interesting.
Hua Cai instantly perked up, staring intently at the two people opposite her, which annoyed them slightly.
Meanwhile, Shao Feiyang, the other party involved, seemed to have known this would happen. He didn't care about the other side at all. Instead, he turned his face, which was pressed against the table, to the other side and looked at Hua Cai. His smiling eyes contained vigilance and inquiry.
Jiang Yu's face paled, and meeting Yi Min's questioning gaze, her eyes suddenly reddened, and her voice trembled: "You...you doubt me, we only just..."
"Your meals have arrived." Just then, the door was suddenly pushed open, and two waiters pushed in a trolley, followed by three tails.
"Boss, look how well we've done it, it's all according to your requirements."
Three boys, dressed neatly in their school uniforms, stood obediently in a row, looking at Shao Feiyang as if waiting for inspection.
"Niu Yuyin???" Hua Cai rubbed her eyes and asked incredulously.
The three people in front of me, apart from their unchanged faces, looked nothing like the three blond-haired men I had just seen not long ago.
Her blonde hair had been dyed a normal black, the ripped clothes she wore that morning were gone, and she was now wearing a school uniform neatly. The tattoos on her hands were gone, and she was standing straight looking at Shao Feiyang, looking exactly like three obedient children seeking praise.
"Not bad." Shao Feiyang was lying on the table facing Hua Cai, but after the three people came in and finished speaking, he didn't even bother to move his eyes.
Hua Cai finally shifted her gaze away from the three people. Seeing that Shao Feiyang still looked like he could fall asleep at any moment, she kicked him in exasperation: "Why don't you look up before you answer? These three are so rare to have reformed, don't be so perfunctory."
The three blond-haired guys, who were already used to Shao Feiyang's attitude, were about to sit down with satisfaction when they heard Hua Cai's words. They were slightly moved for a mere 0.01 seconds before feeling ashamed.
What do you mean by "these three"? And how dare they kick their own leader? They're truly skilled and daring, no explanation needed.
“What’s there to encourage? It’s always the same. Wait until these three stick to it for three days before we talk about praise.” Shao Feiyang moved back a bit, and the soup spoon that had been in front of him was about to hit his head when he reluctantly got up.
The three blond-haired dogs sat down, tears streaming down their faces.
Boss, you've gone astray. What do you mean by "three of us"? You used to only make slight sarcastic remarks about us, never like this.
Hua Cai was already hungry. Seeing the three very well-behaved animals sitting opposite her, she was only briefly intrigued before her attention was quickly drawn to the delicious food that was now in front of her.
After a few polite exchanges, Hua Cai completely ignored the other six people in the room and began to eat heartily.
Shao Feiyang still couldn't muster any energy and didn't touch his chopsticks. When he saw Hua Cai finally put down the teapot, he decisively took over.
Jiang Yu, on the other hand, seemed to relax a little after the interruption and quickly added a dish to Yi Min's plate, clearly trying to change the subject.
Yi Min seemed to have temporarily forgotten what had just happened, and his expression softened. He even chatted with the three men with yellow hair every now and then, and they all seemed to know each other.
Hua Cai's hands kept moving, but she remembered every word of the conversation that was ringing in her ears. On the other hand, Shao Feiyang, who didn't seem like a man of few words, was holding a teacup and seemed to be thinking about something. He didn't say a word, which made the three people opposite him feel uneasy. They felt like there was something wrong with them, and they lost their appetite and kept looking themselves over.
The most satisfying meal in the whole room was undoubtedly the one served at Huacai.
I just ate when I woke up this morning, but now I'm starving again.
Could it be that this body is actually a complete glutton?
While sadly picking at her food, Hua Cai silently admired the original owner who had been gnawing on radish heads for so many years.
No wonder she's so thin; it's truly remarkable that the original owner was able to endure it for so many years.
There was this glutton silently eating on the side, and after the male and female leads finished their sweet and affectionate time together, just as the female lead was about to add another dish for the male lead, she picked up nothing with her chopsticks and was instantly dumbfounded.
An uncontrollable chuckle came from beside him, as if some seal had been broken. Shao Feiyang slumped in his chair, laughing so hard he could barely hold his teacup.
"You idiot, I seriously suspect there's something wrong with the plot now. This second male lead clearly has a grudge against the female lead." Hua Cai swiftly finished the soup in her bowl and then reached for the menu.
Shao Feiyang, who looked like he was about to die laughing at any moment, managed to reach out and press the service bell amidst his busy schedule before continuing to clutch his stomach and cramp up.
Hua Cai flipped through the menu and glared at him fiercely.
The waiter came in quickly, and Hua Cai ordered a bunch of more food. She glanced at Shao Feiyang, who was still swaying back and forth in his chair, with a blank expression: "Hey, are you possessed by the God of Laughter? That's enough."
Didn't you see how incredibly awkward the male and female leads were?
Shao Feiyang wiped away the tears of laughter, looked at the man and woman opposite him, and couldn't help but twitch his lips again: "Why don't we take this opportunity to give the return gift? You've seen it yourself, most families can't afford this, and I'm not as wealthy as the Yi family."
Hua Cai felt a black line appear on her forehead. She wondered if she was being too narcissistic. She felt like this was talking about her, but—what did "can't afford to support" mean?
