Chapter 606: universe
“Do you think the entire universe revolves around you? Wake up.”
A sour soup hot pot without sour soup beef is incomplete.
Su Yinhe was engrossed in her show, oblivious to the fact that Chi Yan was alone, his mind filled with various odd thoughts.
Chi Yan fed her a piece, then ate a piece himself, thankful that Lin Murong hadn’t wandered over; otherwise, he would have had to exclaim about the lovey-dovey display again.
His timing was impeccable; as Su Yinhe finished the show, she also finished the fruit.
Everything was just perfect.
He always had a knack for controlling time.
“Is it tasty?” Chi Yan asked her.
Su Yinhe still had the last piece of watermelon in her mouth.
She chewed, finding the watermelon sweet and juicy, very delicious. “Yes, it’s tasty.”
“Do you like it?” he asked again.
“Yeah, of course I like it. How could I not like it?”
“Then I’ll make another for you next time. Or, I could make a few more now and store them in a space; whenever you feel like eating, just take them out…”
“No need, no need, you… don’t need to make so many. Don’t tire yourself out. I would feel really bad.”
“It’s no trouble at all, just cutting some fruit. How could it be hard?” Chi Yan stroked her head.
“I know, it’s just… I feel for you,” Su Yinhe cooed coyly.
Chi Yan’s gaze deepened as he looked at her.
“Okay, thank you. I really… like you a lot.” He always appreciated her goodness; it was impossible not to like her more and more.
He so wanted, really wanted, to keep her all to himself.
For only him to see.
No one else to look at her.
She was his and his alone.
But, he couldn’t do that; she would be unhappy.
He didn’t want her to be unhappy; he wanted her to do whatever she wished, happily.
“Ah… why… another sudden confession? I’m a bit embarrassed,” Su Yinhe touched her face, feeling it grow hot.
Really now.
“I don’t know. Maybe it’s… because I like you too much.”
Probably because he liked her so much, he couldn’t contain it, and love just couldn’t be controlled.
“Alright, alright, I get it, I know what you’re going to say. Don’t say it.” She… was embarrassed. Truly embarrassed.
Chi Yan looked at her and chuckled softly.
“Okay, as you wish.”
Wandering around, Lin Murong still ended up coming by.
Luckily, his timing was decent and didn’t coincide with anything.
But it was a close call.
“Yo, Galaxy, you’re really enjoying yourself, aren’t you? A show, snacks, milk tea, and a man. If I’m not mistaken, there’ll be an empty fruit plate too,” Lin Murong said, glancing at Chi Yan.
His last remark was unmistakably sarcastic.
Su Yinhe: “…”
“Hehe, not bad. After all, I’m the boss, right? If I don’t enjoy, who will?” Su Yinhe raised an eyebrow at him.
Lin Murong: “…”
That’s… true?
“Um… what are you doing?” Su Yinhe couldn’t help asking as she observed Lin Murong’s odd behavior.
Lin Murong was actually…
Smelling the plate.
Yes, the plate that held the fruit.
Is it that fragrant?
What a weird hobby.
“Me? I didn’t get to eat any, can’t I even get a smell?” Lin Murong spoke with a sense of grievance.
Su Yinhe: “…”
Great, another story she was unaware of.
Su Yinhe glanced at Chi Yan.
Something had happened between the two of them again.
“No, his brain just isn’t right,” although Su Yinhe didn’t say it aloud, he knew what she was thinking; her look made it quite clear.
Su Yinhe: “…”
Hmm, diagnosed, both a bit abnormal.
A huge supermarket, and she’s the only normal person.
They are all abnormal.
Only she is the most normal.
“You’re the one who’s abnormal, Brother Chi, you’re slandering me!” Lin Murong got angry, it was bad enough he missed out on the fruit plate, but now he was being slandered by Chi Yan.
That’s too much.
“Whether it’s slander… you know it yourself,” Chi Yan said emotionlessly.
Lin Murong: “…”
It seems… it’s really not slander.
But…
He couldn’t reason it out yet he blustered on.
No matter what.
“No way, you are slandering, apologize! Or else I will… I will…” Lin Murong “will” for a long time, but still didn’t come up with anything.
“Heh. Take your time,” Chi Yan retorted.
“Hey! Galaxy, you deal with this,” Lin Murong, unable to handle Chi Yan, turned to Su Yinhe.
Su Yinhe: “…” She didn’t have much of a solution, either.
After all, she couldn’t just… confront Chi Yan. Moreover, she didn’t want to confront him.
Su Yinhe’s eyes wandered as she decided to take it out on Lin Murong.
“Hey, Murong, do you want some fries?”
Lin Murong: “??? Sure…” he replied hesitantly.
Not because he was too full to eat, he ate quickly and digested quickly.
He could eat again soon.
It was just… the way Su Yinhe asked gave off a terrifying vibe.
“Alright, go peel some potatoes. Once you’re done, I’ll make you fries,” Su Yinhe gestured a heart with her hands.
Lin Murong: “???”
“You’ll make them?!!!” Lin Murong exclaimed with a shrill scream.
“Yeah, touched, aren’t you?” Su Yinhe winked at him.
“Touched, so touched, really,” Lin Murong was a bit fearful, “but honestly, I could do without them.” It wasn’t that he didn’t want to peel potatoes; he was just a bit scared.
“Not eat? Why not? What makes you think you can’t eat? Eat! You must eat for me! How can you not eat? I’m personally making fries just for you, and you don’t want to eat?” Su Yinhe’s expression didn’t look so good.
“But… I wouldn’t dare to bother our boss to do it personally. For such a small task, I can do it myself. Plus, I’m not that into fries.” He never really liked them.
Lin Murong felt like crying.
“No, you love them now. Wait until I make them,” Su Yinhe patted his shoulder.
“Ah… okay then.” Lin Murong grimaced, feeling a very bad premonition.
“Good boy. Go peel,” Su Yinhe gestured another heart.
Lin Murong: “…”
Damn it.
He really didn’t feel like eating fries anymore.
But Su Yinhe forced him to want them.
Damn it.
And he couldn’t resist.
Lin Murong obediently went to peel potatoes.
Su Yinhe felt quite clever, having avoided an argument without a fuss.
Only thing was, after sending Lin Murong to peel potatoes, she had forgotten about Chi Yan.
Once Lin Murong left, Chi Yan got upset.
“You’re making fries for him?”
“Ah, yes. What about it?”
“No, I don’t agree,” Chi Yan was clearly unhappy.
“Why not? It’s just some fries.”
“You haven’t made any for me, but he gets them first,” Chi Yan was upset.
“Ah, but… um… you… you don’t eat this sort of thing,” Su Yinhe referred to the fried food, the kind Chi Yan liked the least.
“I may not like them, but these are made by you,” Chi Yan loved anything made by Su Yinhe.
“You… cough cough cough,” Su Yinhe felt a bit embarrassed.
“Well… once they’re done, you eat first, and Murong can have the leftovers,” Su Yinhe offered a solution.
Chi Yan wasn’t quite satisfied though.
