After a busy day and covered in sweat, Luo Shimiao took a quick shower and then went downstairs to help.
"Brother Yi, Sister Xue, is there anything I can help you with?"
Jiang Xue was preparing the shrimp when she turned around and said, "You just rest, Yi Ge and I can handle it."
"Okay, what are we having for dinner?"
"Lettuce, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and shrimp. Let's just order whatever we want today. Tomorrow, everyone should work harder so we can win more delicious food."
At this moment, Huang Zongyi called out, "Shi Miao, come and serve the dishes."
Luo Shimiao: "Okay."
She ran into the kitchen, took the stir-fried tomatoes and eggs, and brought them to the dining table.
The remaining two dishes were simply blanched, so they were prepared quickly.
At the dining table.
Luo Shimiao looked at his bowl, which was full of rice, and then looked at Jiang Xue and Qiao Zhixi's bowls, which only contained a fistful of rice.
"Sister Xue, aren't you hungry eating so little?"
Jiang Xue bit her chopsticks and said, "This is already a lot. If my manager were here, I could only eat two bites."
"Two bites? Luckily, my agent doesn't interfere with my diet."
Qiao Zhixi seemed to have forgotten the pain once the wound healed, and said, "You're just a nobody, so even if you gain weight, no one will notice. Unlike us, who are always on TV appearances, we naturally have to be stricter."
Luo Shimiao glanced at him and said, "If you keep babbling, you'll be washing your hair upside down on live stream tonight."
Qiao Zhixi shut up as expected, after all, it wasn't a glorious thing to renege on a promise in front of a national audience.
"Shi Miao, why aren't you eating the shrimp? You won it back yourself." Jiang Xue noticed that Luo Shi Miao was only eating scrambled eggs with tomatoes and vegetables.
"Um... well," Luo Shimiao smiled sheepishly, "I'm lazy."
Jin Hongxuan, who had been silent until now, seemed to have found an opportunity and said with a smile, "Miao... Shi Miao, let me peel it for you."
“Even a dog wouldn’t eat the skin you peeled,” Luo Shimiao replied without looking up.
From the left, came Gu Nian's muffled laughter.
"Brother Hongxuan has been taking care of you in every way because we work at the same company. You not only don't appreciate it, but your attitude is also so rude. You really don't know what's good for you," Qiao Zhixi said with dissatisfaction.
Jin Hongxuan tugged at her sleeve: "Zhixi, stop talking."
Am I wrong?
"There's a reason why she's not famous. It's just that you put up with her. Brother Hongxuan, you're too kind."
Ha, kindness?
Qiao Zhixi: "Hey, why aren't you saying anything?" After saying so much, she didn't respond at all, calmly eating her food as if she hadn't heard her at all.
Luo Shimiao swallowed the food and said lightly, "I only talk to people."
"Luo Shimiao!" Qiao Zhixi slammed her chopsticks on the table, stood up abruptly, her chest heaving, and stared intently at her.
Jiang Xue shook her head, unable to even finish her meal in peace.
He pressed Qiao Zhixi down into a chair: "Zhixi, say less."
Qiao Zhixi pouted, tears welling up in her eyes: "Sister Xue, even you are taking her side, sob sob."
She pushed back the chair, covered her face, and ran upstairs.
Live stream chat:
—【Isn't Xi being a bit too dramatic? Everyone else is eating peacefully, and she's the only one babbling on and on, only to end up feeling wronged.】
—【This isn't the first time; it's the same old Biluochun tea.】
—Zhixi fan [Upstairs, watch your mouth! It was clearly Luo Shimiao who insulted my Xixi first.]
—Zhixi fan [Besides, Xixi was just telling the truth. Can't people even speak the truth these days?]
— [Speechless. As the saying goes, like idol, like father, like son; if the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked too.]
A silence fell over the dining table; no one spoke.
Luo Shimiao was eating his meal with his head down when suddenly a peeled shrimp appeared in his bowl.
Gu Nian: "You don't mind, do you?"
Luo Shimiao stared at Gu Nian in astonishment. Why was he peeling shrimp for her?
Not only was Luo Shimiao surprised, but everyone else was equally shocked.
Luo Shimiao slowly shook his head, not minding, nor daring to mind. It was an honor for me to peel shrimp for you, sir.
Luo Shimiao: "Thank you."
She ate the shrimp bite by bite, and as soon as she finished one, another one came. After eating the third one, Luo Shimiao couldn't help but ask the question that had been bothering her: "Why?"
The moment the question was uttered, those three gazes turned towards him instantly, and he even lowered his breathing.
The man's hands never stopped moving; even peeling shrimp was done with exquisite elegance, a feast for the eyes. Despite everyone's gaze, he remained calm and composed.
He placed the peeled shrimp into Luo Shimiao's bowl, looked into Luo Shimiao's eyes, and said, "I like peeling shrimp."
"Huh?" After waiting for so long, this is all?
Huang Zongyi: "........."
Jiang Xue: "........."
Jin Hongxuan: "........."
Okay, whatever the big shot says goes.
On the second floor, Qiao Zhixi hid under the covers, thinking that someone would come to comfort her, but no one came up after a long time.
After dinner, Huang Zongyi gathered everyone in the living room.
"Let's discuss tomorrow's tasks."
I found a piece of paper and wrote down the ingredients that were still left.
Huang Zongyi: "Is there any dish that you particularly want to eat?"
Qiao Zhixi: "Beef is low in calories."
Director Li, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said, "Here's a task: Grandpa Lin in the village has run out of medicine, and his family isn't home, so tomorrow you need to help Grandpa Lin go to town to get more medicine, and also help him sell all the farm eggs from his house."
Upon hearing that they were going to the town, Qiao Zhixi excitedly exclaimed, "Director, I'll go! I'll go!"
Director Li: "Do you have a motorcycle driver's license?"
"Um...no, but I have a C1 driver's license."
Director Li shook his head and said, "Only motorcycles."
