Yumiju is a famous Chinese restaurant. The chefs who cook Chinese food here are top chefs, and they are very precise in their cooking techniques, such as the temperature and the ingredients used.
Many people come here because of its reputation.
Many food bloggers also come to Yumiju in Country A to do mukbang (eating broadcasts).
Di Chenxiao secretly booked a private room next to Bai Yanlang's, but Shi Xi didn't know. Shi Xi thought that Di Chenxiao had returned to the castle.
Bai Yanlang was waiting for Shi Xi at the entrance of the private room. When he saw Shi Xi arrive, he went up to greet her, "Xiao Shi, you're here. I didn't know what you liked to eat, so I ordered all the famous dishes here."
"Bai Bai, I'm not picky about food, I'll eat anything." Shi Xi, who isn't picky about food.
"Let's go in first!" Bai Yanlang led the way.
After entering the private room, Bai Yanlang helped Shi Xi pull out chairs and set out the tableware.
"Thank you, Bye-bye."
Shi Xi didn't see Bai Feng and Bai Ying outside, so she assumed they were in the private room, but they weren't there either.
"Bai Bai, where are Bai Feng and Bai Ying, who have always been by your side?"
Bai Yanlang paused in his chopsticks, then picked up a small piece of sea cucumber for Shi Xi, saying, "The two of them couldn't come because they had something to do."
They're all very busy people, so they cherish the one person who has free time.
Not only does he not go to school, but he also frequently gets into trouble!
"Thank you, but don't bother serving me food. You should eat too! I'll serve myself." It seems like everyone who eats with her likes to serve her food.
Di Chenxiao was the same way. Every time she was with Di Chenxiao, before she could even pick up any food, her bowl would be filled with food by Di Chenxiao.
It caused her to overeat every time, and made her a laughingstock among Di Wu and the others!
I'm so annoyed!
"Okay." Bai Yanlang really enjoyed watching Shi Xi eat vegetables like a little hamster, her cheeks bulging out; it was very cute.
As expected of a top chef, the cooking time was perfect. All the meats were very tender; any more heat would have made them tough, and any less heat would have made them too tender.
"How's the injury on your neck?" Bai Yanlang looked at the glaring white gauze and felt very uncomfortable.
Shi Xi subconsciously touched the gauze on her neck and said with a smile, "Don't misunderstand, I didn't hang myself or try to commit suicide. I hurt myself by accident. The wound has healed and it's nothing to worry about."
The neck is a conspicuous and awkward spot. People who don't know the situation might think that Shi Xi failed in her suicide attempt and that the injury was left behind!
She initially didn't want to wear gauze, but then she thought that it would be even more embarrassing to have an injury to the major artery without it.
Mi Rou glanced at the gauze on Shi Xi's neck, then looked away guiltily.
Bai Yanlang put down his chopsticks and looked at Shi Xi with apologetic eyes, "Xiao Shi."
"Ah—, what's wrong?" Shi Xi glanced at the food on the table. Darling, I'll take care of you later.
“I planned to go to the black market, but I didn’t expect it to hurt you.”
He only wanted to cause some trouble for Di Chenxiao. He didn't have the ability to kill Di Chenxiao, and it wouldn't be easy for Di Chenxiao to catch him either.
But to his utter surprise, Yan arrived at the black market earlier than he had anticipated, and even more unexpectedly, Shi Xi bumped into Yan right when she went out.
Shi Xi: "..."
The culprit has been found!
When the city gate catches fire, the fish in the moat suffer!
She, an innocent little fish, was caught in the crossfire of the power struggle between the two big shots.
"I'm sorry, I... I don't know what else to say but sorry!" Bai Yanlang took out a tube of ointment from his pocket and placed it in front of Shi Xi. "This is a scar removal medicine. It works very well. Take it back and try it."
