Seeing that there was still blood in the steak Lin Congzhi had cut, Jiang Yimei immediately stopped him: "Lin Congzhi, don't eat it!"
Lin Congzhi was puzzled: "If I don't eat this, what should I eat? Give me yours!"
Jiang Yimei generously said, "I'll give you half."
This is the first time I've seen Jiang Yimei so generous. If I don't give her face, it would be a huge disservice to her kindness.
Without hesitation, Lin Congzhi replied, "Okay!"
Seeing her best friend like this, Yao Yao followed suit: "Gao Jiakai, don't eat!"
Gao Jiakai rolled his eyes at her and said one word without any mercy: "Get lost!"
Yao Yao didn't take it seriously and continued to persuade her, "There's too much blood, don't eat it."
"This little bit of blood won't affect your health."
Gao Jiakai thought Yao Yao was making a fuss over nothing, and at the same time, he also thought his sister-in-law was making a mountain out of a molehill.
Yao Yao frowned: "What if there are parasites?"
Gao Jiakai said indifferently, "Seven-tenths cooked is enough to kill parasites."
After failing to break through her defenses, Yao Yao had no choice but to resort to force: "No, I want to share half with you."
"Clang!"
Gao Jiakai put down his knife and fork, glared at Yao Yao across from him, and sternly rebuked her: "You and I are neither exes, nor colleagues, nor classmates, so don't try to force me in the name of love. It will only make me resentful."
Having been refuted to her face, Yao Yao lost all face and was furious: "Gao Jiakai, have you lost your conscience?"
"Thank you for your kindness," Gao Jiakai replied, then leaned forward, staring into Yao Yao's eyes with obvious disgust, and said, "But I don't need it."
"you……"
Yao Yao's heart sank.
I never thought that Gao Jiakai would reject her so harshly; it was almost as if he harbored a deep-seated aversion to her.
Why is this? Why did Jiang Yimei succeed, but she failed?
Now, she understands the pain Jiang Yimei felt when Lin Congzhi ruthlessly rejected her back then—it was so heart-wrenching and excruciating.
Back then, she mocked Jiang Yimei for reaping what she sowed, but now there's nothing to mock anymore. On the contrary, she finds Jiang Yimei's resilience incredible.
Jiang Yimei never expected that her concern and sharing would trigger an argument between Yao Yao and Gao Jiakai.
This was not what she wanted to see, and she had to condemn Gao Jiakai, that insensitive guy: "Xiao Kai, eating raw beef is bad for your health."
Gao Jiakai explained earnestly, "Sister-in-law, that wasn't born."
Jiang Yimei said stubbornly, "Where there is blood, there is life."
Gao Jiakai felt this was going too far: "We've been eating this for years without any problems, don't make a mountain out of a molehill!"
Jiang Yimei used actual data to persuade them: "The life expectancy of people in this city is not as high as that of people in our Chuyun City, so eating healthily is very important."
Although the average life expectancy in this city is not high, there are many factors that contribute to this low life expectancy, and it cannot be simply attributed to beef with a little bit of blood.
Gao Jiakai pleaded, "Sister-in-law, I know you mean well, but please respect me and don't force me."
Jiang Yimei was furious and said to Lin Congzhi, "Lin Congzhi, discipline your little brother Gao properly."
When his beloved woman spoke, Lin Congzhi would naturally grant her every request.
"Small regular script..."
"Okay, okay, okay!"
Gao Jiakai was truly convinced. Unable to persuade him, he resorted to bringing up Brother Lin to pressure him.
He wouldn't have compromised if it weren't for helping Brother Lin win back Sister-in-law Jiang.
“Give me half,” he said to Yao Yao.
