But before she could walk far, Lu Zhi’s voice rang out behind her, “1 remember you telling me that you’ll treat me to some food.”
What?
When did she say that?
Wait a minute…
She seemed to have said that she would treat him to a roadside stall.
However, she said it as a joke and never took it to heart.
“Do you really want to eat street food?”
“Of course. Don’t tell me you’re unwilling to treat me to a meal.”
“I’m willing, but I’m afraid that you won’t dare to eat that kind of food.”
He was of such noble status and usually ate all kinds of delicacies. How could he get used to eating street food?
“Let’s go now to celebrate our victory.”
Lu Zhi stood up and strode towards her.
He seemed serious.
Lu Zhi walked up next to her and saw that she wasn’t moving. He asked, “Shall we go?”
“You’d be too eye-catching if went out wearing this. I don’t want us to be gawked at like zoo animals.” Jiang Yining pointed at his expensive suit.
“I’ll go change.” Lu Zhi immediately went back to his bedroom.
Jiang Yining also went to her room to change.
A moment later, the two of them met in the living room. Jiang Yining was stunned when she saw Lu Zhi in white T-shirt and black sweatpants.
He was usually dressed like a businessman, looking immaculate but distant.
He still looked cold, arrogant, and distant now but if people who didn’t know him saw him, they would think that he was a cool university hunk.
Clothes made the man indeed.
“If you go to my school dressed like this, you’ll probably charm a lot of girls,”
Jiang Yining said with a smile.
“Did I charm you?” Lu Zhi asked coldly.
Jiang Yining touched her chin and said, “You’re still a little far from charming me.”
“Is that so?” Lu Zhi asked calmly.
Jiang Yining could feel the coldness emanating from him and realized that he was dissatisfied with her answer.
She quickly changed the subject, “Let’s go. If we don’t leave now, it’ll be too late.”
“Okay.”
Jiang Yining led the way, hopping and skipping like a happy kid.
Lu Zhi quickly caught up to her.
Jiang Yining wasn’t very familiar with A-City, and she didn’t know where the best street food stalls were, so the two of them simply strolled around.
They would eat wherever they ended up.
It was past eight in the evening when Jiang Yining found a food street. She felt like having barbecue.
Lu Zhi humored her.
The two of them found a barbeque stall. It only had outdoor seating but every table and stool was wiped clean.
Jiang Yining was afraid that Lu Zhi would find the place dirty, so she wiped the table and stools a few times with a tissue before she let him sit down.
Lu Zhi said coldly, “I’m not that delicate. I don’t need to so careful all the time.”
“Okay.” Jiang Yining nodded and looked around.
When she saw a stall selling stinky tofu, she turned around and said to him, “Wait here.”
With that, she ran off.
A few minutes later, she sat on her stool with the stinky tofu she had just bought and said to Lu Zhi, “Please feel free to order whatever you want.”
She sounded so generous. People who didn’t know better would actually think that she was rich.
Lu Zhi took the menu and ordered a bunch of things in one go.
In the end, Jiang Yining couldn’t bear to spend too much. Lately, she couldn’t make ends meet, and money was a little tight.
She told him to feel free, not to waste food or bankrupt her.
“That’s enough. Don’t order anymore.” Jiang Yining quickly stopped him and handed the order chit to the boss.
“Didn’t you say that I should order whatever 1 want?” Lu Zhi gave her a light smile.
“It’s shameful to waste food. You’ve ordered enough for the two of us. If you are still hungry later, we can order more.” Jiang Yining said seriously.
Lu Zhi lowered his eyes. He didn’t expect this girl to be so thrifty.
Jiang Yining unwrapped a pair of single-use chopsticks, picked up a piece of stinky tofu, took a bite, and narrowed her eyes in satisfaction.
She had lived at the Lu residence for so long that she had almost forgotten the wonderful taste of this thing.
It was so good.
“Is it delicious?” Lu Zhi asked.
“Yes, of course.” Jiang Yining answered matter-of-factly and picked up another piece of stinky tofu.
“Give me some,” Lu Zhi asked casually.
“Aren’t there chopsticks in the holder? Help yourself…” Jiang Yining said as she stuffed tofu into her mouth.
However, before she could eat it, Lu Zhi grabbed her wrist and forcefully changed the direction of her chopsticks.
In the next second, her stinky tofu was in his mouth.
What an overbearing bandit!
Didn’t he feel embarrassed snatching another person’s food openly like that?
Jiang Yining strongly condemned his shameless behavior in her heart.
Lu Zhi chewed for a while and tasted the stink in stinky tofu. He opened his mouth and wanted to spit it out.
Jiang Yining’s reaction was quick as she covered his mouth. “Savor it, savor it slowly. Don’t waste it.”
How dare he waste the food that he had just snatched from her?
She would not allow it!
Lu Zhi’s lips curled up slightly as his mouth moved.
As he chewed, his lips gently rubbed against Jiang Yining’s palm.
Jiang Yining only reacted after a few seconds and retracted her hand quickly.
Lu Zhi stared at her with his pitch-black eyes as he said, “This thing smells bad, but it tastes okay.”
“Of course.”
Wasn’t this the case with stinky tofu?
Jiang Yining looked at the things on the table, refusing to have any eye contact with Lu Zhi.
After eating their fill, Jiang Yining settled the bill.
The two of them ate a meal for 237 yuan, and there were still leftovers.
If Lu Zhi didn’t randomly order things, this meal would have been cheaper.
However, she wasn’t going to split hairs with him. After all, he had won the battle with the Tao family.
“Shall we go home now?” Jiang Yining asked as she touched her round belly.
“Let’s walk around.” Lu Zhi’s words are concise.
“Sure.” Jiang Yining walked next to him along the streets.
Many couples were out at night on dates, probably.
Lu Zhi looked at Jiang Yining beside him and had the illusion that he and Yining were a normal couple.
He liked the feeling.
Jiang Yining was looking around when someone held her hand gently.
She looked down to check.
When she saw that Lu Zhi was holding her hand, she looked up at him in confusion but met his deep, pitch-black eyes.
Jiang Yining’s heart skipped a beat.
“It’s crowded here. It’s better for us to hold hands and walk so we don’t get separated.”
Um… Okay.
Jiang Yining let him be.
Lu Zhi waited for her to stop looking at him before he curled his lips up into a victorious smile.
The two of them strolled until late midnight before they made their way home. On their way home, Jiang Yining was too tired. She leaned on Lu Zhi’s shoulder and fell into a deep sleep.
When their car entered the neighborhood, another car passed them in the opposite direction.
The man in the passenger seat glanced at their car. When his gaze inadvertently swept across Jiang Yining’s face, he revealed a shocked expression.
However, before he could react, the two cars had already passed each other and were moving in different directions.
When the man recovered from his shock, he immediately asked the driver to turn the car around and chased after Jiang Yining’s car.
They had found her.
He took out his phone and dialed a number. “Mr. Gu, I saw Miss Yining just now. She was sitting in a car with an unfamiliar man..”
