Chapter 545: Gift Flowers
"I’m going to give you a bouquet of flowers today, I’m good to you, right? Aren’t they pretty? I’ve picked these out for a long time."
"How could I possibly not eat?" Lin Murong was shocked.
Even if he was feeling a bit nauseous for the moment, it wasn’t enough to stop him from eating.
"I’m being considerate of you," Su Yinhe said with a sweetly innocent face.
"I appreciate your consideration, but I don’t need it," don’t think he didn’t know what she was up to in her mind.
"Pfft, reject my care, will you? A wild boar can’t appreciate fine bran," Su Yinhe was suddenly lively now.
"Who are you calling a wild boar?" Lin Murong looked at her in disbelief.
"Nobody. Who else could there be? Who could I possibly say," Su Yinhe shrugged her shoulders.
"I always feel like you’re talking about me," Lin Murong looked at her, no, it wasn’t a feeling, she was definitely talking about him.
Alas, he had no proof.
"Evidence, I only look at the evidence," Su Yinhe stretched out her hand towards him.
"It seems there’s no evidence," Lin Murong lowered his head, "but I can still eat! Don’t take it away!" He couldn’t let the ducks he had been eagerly awaiting just fly away like that.
"Okay, okay, I won’t take it, take your time eating," Su Yinhe was simply teasing him; seeing him anxious, she let him off the hook.
Then Lin Murong began to eat the ducks, and as he looked at them, he was reminded of soybean juice and felt a bit queasy again.
But he couldn’t bear it, what if Galaxy really took them away if he didn’t eat?
Truly, the waters of West Lake, his tears.
Eat, how could he not eat?
These were his ducks, the ducks he had long been looking forward to.
Lin Murong began to fiercely continue gnawing on the ducks.
Indeed, it was still a bit nauseating.
But as he chewed, the duck was so fragrant that he was no longer nauseated.
And he began to eat deliciously again.
Su Yinhe quietly watched him eat, while Chi Yan quietly watched her.
The main feature was just that, watching each other.
Lin Murong felt a bit of pressure, but as he ate, he soon didn’t mind.
Look, look all you want.
As Lin Murong continued to eat, his appetite grew better, and in the end, he actually finished off all ten ducks.
"Amazing, Your Excellency is truly impressive," Su Yinhe raised her thumb at him.
"Hehehe, just so-so, I think it’s okay," Lin Murong said and then let out a satisfied belch.
Su Yinhe: "..."
"All right, you’ve finished the ducks you wanted, who cleans up after whom?" Lin Murong had a grand time eating, but what was left was a total mess.
"Oh, I’ll clean up, definitely," Lin Murong said with a dutiful face.
"Fine, then I’ll go back to sleep. The cleaning is your task," Su Yinhe said, and then pulled Chi Yan away with her.
Lin Murong looked at the remaining mess, blinked his eyes, no, why did he always feel like something was off?
He understood cleaning up after himself, but why should he also clean up after them?
They all ate, so why should he clean up, whereas Brother Chi didn’t have to?
Brother Chi also ate Galaxy’s, slept Galaxy’s, lived Galaxy’s.
Why was the treatment different for him?
They were both men, and roughly the same in appearance.
Lin Murong was still pondering why Su Yinhe only fancied Chi Yan and not him.
He thought he wasn’t bad-looking.
Possibly even better-looking than Chi Yan.
After much pondering, Lin Murong came to a conclusion: Su Yinhe, had no taste.
She was the problem.
Yep.
Not his fault.
Living life, one should blame others more and oneself less.
That way, one lives happily and contentedly...
Pah, that’s a tangent.
He still had to clean up.
After all, he had eaten their ten ducks.
So Lin Murong did his chores quite dutifully.
Could he be anything but dutiful after having been fed?
After cleaning up, he felt tired.
He looked around and felt there was nothing more to do, he was full, and it was time to sleep.
Since Galaxy and the others had also gone to sleep, and there was nothing to do now, then he...
Lin Murong went to sleep, and slept for an entire day.
Su Yinhe didn’t see him all day.
She actually felt a bit unaccustomed.
"Why are you always thinking about him? He’s not important, think less," Chi Yan was jealous again.
Sometimes, he really wanted to get rid of Lin Murong.
An eyesore.
"Oh, I was just thinking casually."
"Just thinking about it casually won’t do, thinking about it at all is not okay." Chi Yan touched her hair, not exactly patting her head, but lifting her strands and gently stroking them.
His touch was light, but his tone...
Hmm.
Su Yinhe actually quite liked it.
That base voice of a man.
Though she wasn’t a big fan of base voices, this wasn’t just any base voice, this was Chi Yan’s base voice.
She... couldn’t resist it at all.
She had fallen in love.
"What fell in love?" Chi Yan asked.
Damn, she had accidentally blurted out what was in her heart.
"Nothing, nothing, you heard wrong," Su Yinhe nearly exploded.
So embarrassing.
Letting slip her inner thoughts by accident was truly embarrassing.
Su Yinhe ran away.
Chi Yan: "..."
He had the feeling something was amiss.
After Su Yinhe fled from Chi Yan’s sight, she covered her face—damn her mouth.
Sigh.
Aaaaahhhh.
She wanted to die.
Wanted to die.
Thought about dying over and over again.
Thought about passing away over and over again.
She was so embarrassed, her toes were curling into the ground.
Aaaaahhhh.
Want to die, want to die, her desire to pass away peaked at that moment.
Why do people have to live?
Tired, so tired, she was just so tired.
Su Yinhe thought about it and ran back to her room to lie down.
Sleep, sleep, after a good sleep, she wouldn’t remember anything.
Good.
She would forget.
Su Yinhe slept, woke up, freshened up, then took out food from her space, ate, played a bit, continued to sleep, then got up again...
So, after Lin Murong had slept for a whole day, he discovered that his dear Galaxy had disappeared.
"Brother Chi, where’s Galaxy?" He decided to go straight to Chi Yan and ask.
"She ran away because she was shy," Chi Yan returned an answer to Lin Murong after pondering for a long time.
Yes, he had thought long and hard.
Before he finally understood why Su Yinhe suddenly ran away.
He had thought she was afraid.
As long as she wasn’t afraid of him, it was fine.
Chi Yan left this answer behind and walked away, satisfied.
Leaving the freshly awakened Lin Murong utterly confused.
Wait, what shy?
What the hell.
Shy about what?
Why be shy?
Could it be that it was a part of their two-person play?
The more Lin Murong thought about the possibility, the more he trembled.
Hold on, he just slept for a day, why did it feel like something significant had happened?
Were they moving too fast?
Was it really okay for them to move this quickly?
Not good, right?
Not good!
Lin Murong roared inside.
Why did he not dare to roar out loud?
Because...
He was hungry.
After sleeping for a day without eating, he’d woken up hungry.
If it weren’t for the hunger, he wouldn’t have wanted to get up; he could’ve continued sleeping.
Damn it.
He couldn’t just roar out loud, that would use up energy.
Now that Su Yinhe wasn’t around, Chi Yan...
Forget it, he might as well find food for himself.
With the supermarket being so big, with so many things, and his own cooking skills being so good, he’d surely be able to feed himself.
