Chapter 554: specimen
“Murong, if you keep blabbering, do you believe I will turn you into a specimen?”
Chi Yan fed her a piece, then ate one himself, thankful that Murong hadn’t wandered over here. Otherwise, she would have probably started crying ‘abuse’ again.
His timing was just perfect, as Su Yinhe finished watching the drama just as the fruit was also finished.
Everything was just perfect.
He had always had good control over timing.
“Is it tasty?” Chi Yan asked her.
Su Yinhe still had the last piece of watermelon in her mouth.
She chewed it— the watermelon was sweet, juicy, and delicious. “Tasty.”
“Do you like it?” he asked again.
“Like it, of course I like it. How could I possibly not like it?”
“Then next time I will make another one for you. Or, I can go make a few more right now, and then store them; whenever you want to eat, just take them out…”
“No need, no need, you… don’t need to make so many. Don’t overexert yourself. I feel bad.”
“It’s not hard work, just cutting some fruits. How could it be hard?” Chi Yan stroked her head.
“I know, it’s just… I feel for you,” Su Yinhe pouted coquettishly.
Chi Yan’s gaze deepened as he looked at her.
“Okay, thank you. I really… really like you.” It was always so good with her; how could he not like her? He was falling for her more and more.
He really wanted to hide her away.
Just for him to see.
No one else allowed.
She was his and his alone.
But, he couldn’t do that; it would make her unhappy.
He didn’t want her to be unhappy; he wanted her to do whatever she wanted to do. To be happy.
“Ah… why… suddenly confessing again, it’s kind of embarrassing.” Su Yinhe touched her face, feeling it heat up.
Really now.
“I don’t know. Maybe because…” I like you too much.
Because he liked her too much, he always found it hard to restrain himself, his affection difficult to contain.
“Okay, okay, I get it, I know what you’re going to say. Don’t say it.” She… felt embarrassed. Really embarrassed.
Chi Yan looked at her and chuckled softly.
“Okay, as you wish.”
Murong ended up wandering over here anyway.
Fortunately, his timing wasn’t too bad, and they hadn’t collided.
But it was a close call.
“Yo, Galaxy, you’re quite enjoying yourself, with dramas, snacks, milk tea, and a man. Not to mention, if I’m not mistaken, a fruit plate that’s been completely eaten.” Murong said, casting a glance at Chi Yan.
His last sentence carried an obvious sarcastic tone.
Su Yinhe: “…”
“Heh, it’s fine. After all, I’m the boss here, if I don’t enjoy, who will?” Su Yinhe raised an eyebrow at him.
Murong: “…”
That’s… true?
“Um… what are you doing?” Su Yinhe, noticing Murong acting weird, couldn’t help but ask.
Murong was actually…
…sniffing the plate.
Yes, the plate that had held the fruits.
Is it that fragrant?
What a weird hobby.
“Me? I didn’t get to eat any, can’t I at least smell it?” Murong said mournfully.
Su Yinhe: “…”
Okay, another story she wasn’t aware of.
Su Yinhe glanced at Chi Yan.
The two of them, something must have happened again.
“No, his brain’s not right.” Although Su Yinhe didn’t speak out, he knew what she wanted to say. Her expression said it all.
Su Yinhe: “…”
Right, diagnosis confirmed, both were somewhat abnormal.
In such a huge supermarket, she was the only normal one.
They were all abnormal.
She was the most normal of them all.
“You’re the abnormal one! Brother Chi, you’re falsely accusing me!” Lin Murong got angry. It was bad enough that he didn’t get any fruit from the fruit plate, but now he was being slandered by Chi Yan.
That was too much.
“Whether it’s a false accusation… you know it yourself,” said Chi Yan expressionlessly.
Lin Murong: “…”
It seemed… it really wasn’t a false accusation.
But…
He couldn’t argue logically yet still felt righteous.
It didn’t matter.
“No, you are falsely accusing. Apologize! Or else I’ll… I’ll…” Lin Murong stuttered for a long time but still couldn’t finish his sentence.
“Heh. Take your time thinking,” Chi Yan mocked.
“Hey! Galaxy! Do something,” Lin Murong, having no way to deal with Chi Yan, turned to Su Yinhe for help.
Su Yinhe: “…” She didn’t really have a solution.
She couldn’t just… confront Chi Yan. Besides, she didn’t want to confront him either.
Su Yinhe’s eyes darted around before she decided to pick on Lin Murong.
“Lin Murong, do you want some fries?”
Lin Murong: “??? Sure…” Lin Murong hesitated as he spoke.
It wasn’t because he was too full to eat; he ate fast and digested quickly.
He could eat right away.
But, the way Su Yinhe asked the question, it sounded terrifying no matter how he heard it.
“Okay, then go peel some potatoes. Once they’re peeled, I’ll make you fries,” Su Yinhe gave him a heart sign.
Lin Murong: “???”
“You’re making them yourself?!!!” Lin Murong shrieked.
“Yes, aren’t you touched?” Su Yinhe winked at him.
“So touched, truly touched,” Lin Murong was a bit scared, “but, I actually could go without eating them.” It wasn’t that he didn’t want to peel potatoes; he was just a bit frightened.
“Not eating? Why aren’t you eating? Why should you not eat? Eat! You must eat for me! How can you not eat? I’m making fries myself, and you don’t want to eat them?” Su Yinhe’s face looked terrible.
“But… how dare I trouble our boss to do it by herself. Such a minor task, I can do it myself. I’m not that fond of fries anyway.” He really didn’t like fries.
Lin Murong felt like he was on the verge of crying.
“No, you love them now. Wait for me to make them,” Su Yinhe patted his shoulder.
“Ah… okay.” Lin Murong had a gloomy face; he had a very bad premonition.
“Good boy. Go peel them,” Su Yinhe gave him another heart sign.
Lin Murong: “…”
Damn it.
He really didn’t want to eat fries anymore.
But Su Yinhe was forcing him to want to.
Damn it.
And he couldn’t even resist.
Lin Murong obediently went to peel potatoes.
Su Yinhe felt very cunning; without making a sound, she avoided an argument.
However, she had sent Lin Murong to peel potatoes and had forgotten about Chi Yan.
As soon as Lin Murong left, Chi Yan became unhappy.
“You’re making him fries?”
“Ah, yeah. What’s the matter?”
“I don’t agree,” Chi Yan was very unhappy.
“Why? It’s just making fries.”
“You never made them for me. You made them for him first,” Chi Yan was very unhappy.
“Ah, but… um… you… don’t eat this kind of stuff, right? Fried food, which you dislike the most.”
“It’s not that I dislike, but these would be made by you.” Chi Yan would like anything made by Galaxy.
“You… cough cough cough,” Su Yinhe was a bit embarrassed again.
“Well… when they’re done, you eat first, and Lin Murong can have the leftovers,” Su Yinhe suggested a solution.
Chi Yan was still not quite satisfied.
