Chapter 43: Emperor Qi's 18th Birthday
Qi Yaoyang invited a very good barbecue chef to be in charge of the barbecue tonight. The food on the table looked very delicious... Well, the fact that Qi Wuyu started eating and hasn't stopped yet is enough to show that the barbecue chef's skills must be excellent.
Qi Luo was curious before why Qi Wuyu nodded and agreed immediately without any hesitation when Qi Yaoyang invited them to the barbecue party. It seemed that he came just for the barbecue!
After tonight, Qi Luo had a new understanding of Qi Wuyu's obsession with food.
No wonder Qi Wuyu always eats everything up when she cooks at home and keeps snacking. In fact, Qi Wuyu is just a foodie.
"Why are you staring at me? Aren't you going to eat?" Qi Wu Yu elegantly took out a tissue to wipe his hands, then turned his head to look at Qi Luo who was staring at him with a complicated expression.
"I'm full." Not only was she full, but everyone else had also stopped eating, leaving Qi Wuyu as the only one who continued.
Taking a look at his stomach, Qi Luo said, "You just had dinner two hours ago, and now you're eating so much. Is your stomach a bottomless pit?"
Looking at his brothers and sisters, they had no reaction, as if they were already accustomed to the fact that he was a big eater. Qi Yaoyang was even considerate enough to ask the chef to bake some more for him.
Qi Yaoyang personally brought a plate of barbecue and placed it in front of Qi Wuyu, then sat down in the empty seat next to Qi Luo.
"Don't be surprised, sister-in-law. People who are familiar with my brother know that he can't gain weight. We are very happy that he is willing to eat. You don't know that before he was 18, his appetite was even smaller than when Qi Lewan was losing weight. At that time, I was worried all day long about how to get him to eat. Later..."
Qi Wu Yu raised his eyes and glanced at him calmly, and Qi Yaoyang quickly smiled and stopped talking.
Said to Qi Luo: "Brother doesn't let me say it, I dare not say it anymore, I'll go get two bottles of wine, sister-in-law, you talk to brother."
After Qi Yaoyang left, Qi Luo did not speak to Qi Wuyu immediately. She stared at Qi Wuyu.
Eighteen years old.
Only two days after arriving at the Qi family, she heard the second person mention Qi Wuyu's "eighteen years old". Qi Wuyu's third grandfather said that Qi Wuyu had no interest in the entertainment industry before he was 18, but he suddenly went to film when he was 18; Qi Yaoyang just said that Qi Wuyu didn't love to eat as much as he does now before he was 18, and his family even worried about getting him to eat a bite...
Is eighteen a watershed moment for Qi Wuyu?
Her gaze was fixed on him, and Qi Wuyu couldn't ignore her. He stopped eating the skewers and said, "If you have something to say, just say it. It's very rude to stare at others eating without saying a word."
After saying that, he continued eating.
He can eat barbecue so elegantly without looking rude at all. His superior face is not wasted at all and it is very pleasing to the eye. So when Qi Luo heard that he was so bad at speaking, he stopped arguing with him for the time being.
"I'm very curious about what you were like before you were eighteen. It feels like eighteen is a watershed for you. You seem to be very different before and after you were eighteen."
Qi Wuyu put down the skewers in his hand and stopped eating. He looked at her and asked, "Where did you get this conclusion? Just because Qi Yaoyang just mentioned that I couldn't eat as much as I can now before I was 18?"
Qi Luo supported his chin with one hand and tilted his head to look at him, shaking his head, "No, I met Third Grandpa yesterday, and he told me that you had no interest in the entertainment industry before you were eighteen, but you suddenly went to film a movie when you were eighteen."
"How can others know what I am interested in and what I am not interested in? If I don't say it, then I am not interested? That doesn't make sense."
Qi Luo shrugged, "It seems so."
"It's just that you suddenly went to film when you were 18. It can be said that you were interested in filming, but you just didn't say it to let others know. Then what about you being anorexic before 18 and becoming a foodie after 18? Um, based on what my second brother said just now, you should have reached the level of anorexia at that time, right?"
Qi Wuyu glanced at her, then looked away, looking at the barbecue plate in front of him, as if he was considering which skewer of barbecue would taste better. In short, he did not look at Qi Luo again, "Is it not possible to allow people to change their unhealthy lifestyle habits and become willing to eat?"
He did not deny that he was anorexic before he was eighteen!
"That's not the case." Qi Luo looked at him with a smile, "So you suddenly changed your lifestyle and decided to start a healthy life, which is why you became so keen on eating?"
Qi Wuyu glanced at her, "Yeah."
"What was the opportunity? What was the opportunity that made you change?"
"I don't want to die."
His words made Qi Luo stunned.
His anorexia...has it reached the point where it threatens his life?
Then why did he suddenly become so fond of eating? Does he really like eating? Or... he just "didn't want to die" so he had to eat?
Qi Luo grabbed the skewers that Qi Wuyu had just picked up and was about to eat and threw them back into the barbecue plate. Qi Wuyu was not angry nor did he blame her, but just asked in confusion: "What are you doing?"
Qi Luo wanted to ask him directly about this guess, but swallowed the words back when he was about to say them, "You ate a lot tonight, and you won't sleep well if you eat more. I think the view of my second brother's yard is nice at night, so please accompany me for a walk." They are not familiar enough to ask such in-depth questions.
Perhaps because he was a little upset, Qi Luo didn't pay much attention to it and directly pulled Qi Wuyu's hand and stood up.
Instead of pulling his sleeves or arms like before, she just held his hand and pulled him up.
Perhaps Qi Wuyu was too shocked and did not immediately shake off her hand, but just let her hold him. After a moment, he seemed to react. He lowered his eyes to look at the hand held by Qi Luo. His long eyelashes drooped slightly, making it difficult to see the emotions in his eyes.
But this state did not last long. He raised his drooping eyes and stared at Qi Luo: "Qi Luo, is it so easy for you to command me now?"
It was his voice that made Qi Luo realize his actions.
The hand holding his was slightly stiff, and he quickly let go of his hand. Qi Luo was unreasonable but very strong: "What do you mean by ordering you around? I obviously saw that you ate too much and wanted you to walk around to digest it so that you wouldn't feel uncomfortable with food accumulation. I'm just thinking about you!"
"Really? Didn't you just want to see the night view of someone else's yard and drag me along?"
She said it herself, and it would be inappropriate to deny it completely. "Well, okay, I do want to walk around and see the night view, but it's not convenient for me to take you with me. You said it yourself, I want to have as little contact with other people as possible except you in the Qi family. I want to find someone to walk around with me and see the night view, so of course I can only find you."
Qi Wuyu didn't say anything else, as if he had nothing to say.
Watching the two of them walking away from the table hand in hand, Qi Lewan stared at their backs for a long time without looking away. Qi Wuyou, who was nearby, saw this, shook the red wine he had just poured for himself, and whispered "Hey" into Qi Lewan's ear from behind.
Qi Lewan was really scared.
"Qi Wuyou, are you sick?"
"Why call me Qi Wuyou? Call me Fifth Brother. That's rude!" He looked over curiously along Qi Lewan's line of sight, "What are you looking at? You're so engrossed in it."
