Chapter 122 Good Enough for You
âOh my goodness! How was this barbecue sauce made? Itâs so delicious! Itâs amazingâ¦â Triston exclaimed in astonishment as he quickly stuffed food into his mouth.
Just like Catherine, he loved barbecue. He had tried all the barbecues in his home country, and in the end, he even opened his own barbecue restaurant with a master chef. It was evident that he truly loved it.
Triston had come here to join in the fun, but he didnât expect this barbecue to be so impressive and delicious. It was truly extraordinary.
Ronin rolled his eyes at Triston and couldnât help but comment, âWhy do you have to talk while eating? If you keep blabbering, Iâll kick you out!â
Triston was scared by Roninâs fierce tone of voice. He quickly grabbed some meat and stuffed them into his mouth to prevent himself from being kicked out later.
Ronin sat in his seat, looking unhappy. He had spent a long time researching the sauce and had tried it many times. It was specifically designed to serve Catherine. But now, so many people shared it.
The sauce wasnât exclusively for Catherine now, which made him angry. âHow could it be like this?â he asked inwardly. âI made the sauce for Catherine! I donât want you to share it with her!â
However, Catherine agreed to let the other people come, and Ronin had no choice but to acquiesce. He looked towards Catherine and saw Branden naturally put a piece of meat on Catherineâs plate. Seeing this, Ronin exploded with rage. He stood up and glared at Branden, his face full of anger.
âHey, how can you use your fork to pick food for our Boss? Donât you know that itâs contaminated with your saliva?â
As soon as these words were spoken, the noisy table fell silent, and only the sound of meat sizzling remained.
Everyoneâs gaze focused on the two of them, but Branden remained calm as if he wasnât the one being shouted at. He slowly lifted his head and glanced at Ronin, his gaze steady and icy, devoid of emotion.
Catherine didnât think it was a big deal either. She continued to eat the meat on her plate without any hesitation.
The lack of response from the two directly answered everything silently. Triston laughed out loud in an attempt to diffuse the awkwardness.
âWell, whatâs the big deal? Theyâre engaged, and their parents have agreed. Itâs normal for them to sleep together, let alone share food.â
Ronin, already on the verge of exploding, threw a fit on the spot. âYouâre talking nonsense! How can this guy be worthy of our Boss?â
The air fell silent in an instant, and Triston internally gave a thumbs-up to Ronin. âWell done, young man,â he praised silently. âYouâre amazing.â
Ronin might be the only person in Casier who dared to say such words to Branden. Sensing the strange atmosphere, Ronin felt panic in his heart, but he quickly overcame it with his strong belief.
âI didnât say anything wrong!â
He stared at Branden, his eyes filled with resentment. In Roninâs opinion, this manâs behavior tarnished Catherine, and he would not let that happen again.
Brandenâs expression changed slightly, and his eyebrows slightly furrowed. He didnât have time to play around with Ronin, a little brat. He cared about Catherine. He locked his gaze Conto Catherine, his deep eyes seeming to carry the power to devour everything. 11 Do you think Iâm good enough for you?â
Catherine, enjoying the barbecue, didnât expect such an abrupt question. Hearing the voice, she slowly raised her head, her cold eyes filled with confusion.
Under Brandenâs charming temptation, Catherine instinctively nodded her head. A faint smile appeared on Brandenâs face. The tip of his tongue pressed against his cheek, and the upward tilt of his eyes was filled with pride.
Triston noticed it as well. He reached out to pat Roninâs shoulder. Ronin turned his head and glared at Triston angrily, forcefully shaking off Tristonâs hand.
Catherine just wanted to enjoy the barbecue and didnât want any more conflicts. Suddenly, she spoke to Ronin.
âThe barbecue is good!â
In the previous second, Ronin was sulking, but a big smile instantly appeared after hearing Catherineâs words. He turned his head to look at Catherine, his eyes filled with anticipation.
âBoss, I was originally worried that the sauce would be too salty. I didnât expect you to like it too. Itâs great, isnât it?â
Catherine raised her eyes slightly and glanced at Ronin, who had a bright smile on his face. She nodded in agreement with his words.
For Ronin, this was like being praised twice in a row by his Boss simultaneously, which enormously excited him. Just a moment ago, he felt the world was gloomy, but it suddenly became colorful and vibrant.
âBoss, I put some jelly in the
refrigerator. I made it myself. Iâll go get it for you!â
After saying that, Ronin got up and left .
Jelly went well with the barbecue. It was a perfect match. As soon as Ronin disappeared, Triston immediately glared at Catherine, whispering, âCatherine, this classmate of yours seems a bit crazy, huh? How can he switch roles so easily? One second ago, he was a cold and arrogant top student, and the next, he was a sweet little puppy. Heâs quite an actor.â
Like a family member, Ronin had been by Catherineâs side since they were young. She didnât like hearing others talk about him.
She raised her head, and her eyes instantly turned icy. Her eyes were like two sharp swords, shooting directly at Triston.
Her gaze was intimidating. Just one glance at Triston made him feel a sense of fear, which was even more terrifying than Brandenâs. Triston suddenly realized that offending Branden wasnât the worst thing. But offending Catherine was because offending Catherine was equivalent to insulting Branden, Bryan, and even Ronin.
Triston couldnât afford to offend them, so he quickly apologized. âWell, sorry, I was just talking nonsense. Iâll shut up and eat the barbecue, okay?â
Since Triston had apologized, Catherine didnât dwell on it anymore. Ronin came back with a plate in his hand. He placed it in front of Catherine, looking at her expectantly.
âBoss, have a try. I added some mint water and fruits without sugar!â
Catherine didnât like to eat sweets. Bryan glanced at the plate and found that Ronin was quite scheming. There were so many people, but Ronin only brought jelly for Catherine. She was truly favored.
Catherine took a bite and nodded in satisfaction. Roninâs cooking did suit her taste. She slowly raised her eyes and glanced at Ronin, asking, âIs there more?â
Ronin knew what Catherineâs words meant. He turned around to bring out a small pot, placing it in front of everyone. His voice was cold as he said, âIf you want to eat, serve yourself!â Roninâs attitude totally changed!
