Chapter 181 Sweetness
Su Jiqing shivered involuntarily in broad daylight. He slowly turned around, his smile more painful than a grimace, "Feifei, you're back..."
Zheng Fei, as always, kept smiling and staring at him, but the smile was unusually sinister, making Su Ji shrink his neck even tighter when he saw it.
Zheng Fei gritted his teeth, "Bird, what are you planning to do?"
"I didn't plan to do anything, I just... I just remembered that I still owe you money..." Su Ji blurted out a little truth in her desperation.
"Oh? But what I get is that you're trying to ask me for a favor directly?" Zheng Fei said with a forced smile.
"No! Absolutely not!" Su Ji firmly denied the fact.
Lu Yi and Ye Ran both felt a strange unease as they watched this scene unfold. These two...
Something looks a little off.
Zheng Fei ignored their thoughts and kept staring intently at Su Ji. "That would be best. You haven't forgotten that I picked you up when you fainted from hunger on the mountain, have you?"
"No, am I the kind of person who doesn't know how to repay kindness?" At this point, Su Ji more firmly denied the bad thoughts that had just crossed his mind.
At the same time, a faint sense of guilt rose in his heart. Yes, although Zheng Fei often made him angry, he was still very good to him...
How could he have gotten so smug after getting rid of Zheng Fei? That's so wrong! If Master and Senior Brother knew, they'd definitely scold him...
Seeing his dejected look, Zheng Fei knew he was feeling guilty, so he pressed his advantage, "Then tell me, what were you planning to do just now?"
"I... I was just telling them that I came down the mountain to help them, but now they're going to Beijing."
"I had no choice, so..." Su Ji explained in a low voice.
"That's something that can't be helped, but I think I forgot to tell you that my dad is about to be transferred to work in Beijing."
"My mom and I came here to pick up my grandparents and take them to Beijing. Our train is tomorrow," Zheng Fei said slowly, staring intently into Su Ji's eyes.
"Huh?" Su Ji was dumbfounded. Zheng Fei was also going to Beijing?
Does that mean he'll be under constant control?
As Su Ji thought about how the days when he could eat meat whenever he wanted were getting further and further away, the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned down.
Seeing Su Ji's expression, Zheng Fei knew what he was thinking. He shook the bag he was carrying and said, "I brought you some food."
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Su Ji's eyes widened. "What food? Is there meat?"
"Yes, it's pork liver porridge. Drink more of it; it'll help replenish your qi and blood." Zheng Fei gently placed the porridge in front of him.
Upon hearing that there was really meat inside, Su Ji indeed forgot everything else and devoted himself wholeheartedly to his rice-making endeavor...
Overwhelmed by an indescribable sense of awe, Ye Ran and Lu Yi remained silent throughout the entire process, merely observing the scene with thoughtful expressions.
After Zheng Fei silently watched Su Ji eat for a while, he finally noticed the two of them again. He handed Su Ji a tissue and told him to wipe the soup off his mouth.
Then Zheng Fei turned around, walked to Ye Ran and Lu Yi's side, and whispered, "You two really don't hold back at all!"
