Ding Bo squinted at Yi Feng and suddenly said, âBrother Yi, forgive my bluntness, but I feel⦠you two arenât really dating, are you?â
He sensed it. Just Yi Fengâs blabbering and Gu Muxiâs completely bewildered expression.
With such a deeply engraved love story, where would such expressions come from?
Thus, Ding Bo judged that Gu Muxi and Yi Feng were not a couple; it was possible that Gu Muxi had found him to act and fool himself.
Yes, very likely!
âHow could that be? Mr. Ding, that must be your misconception!â
âWe are a couple deeply in love, right, dear?â Yi Feng held her hand, raised it, and said earnestly.
Gu Muxi was exasperated, all thanks to his nonsense, and now, they were suspected, werenât they?
But now she was too far in to back out, so she could only mimic Yi Fengâs actions and gaze deeply into his eyes.
âYes, dear, we are to be together forever.â
Saying this, Gu Muxiâs cheeks reddened, and her body broke out in goosebumps.
Ding Bo, seeing their act, although hard to imagine, but they were holding hands too tightly, werenât they?
His goddess was being held by someone elseâs hand!
Pain, it was truly painful!
He was about to continue voicing his suspicions when the waitress came over with a cart.
The cart was piled with dishes and various cuisines.
âSir, madam, your ordered dishes are ready. Let me serve them for you,â the waitress smiled.
âOkay, thank you. Mr. Ding, letâs eat breakfast first. After talking so much, Iâm hungry,â Yi Feng said.
âUh, okay.â Ding Bo nodded and glanced at the dishes on the cart.
So many dishes, there must be some for other tables too.
But what happened next completely dumbfounded him!
The waitress moved incredibly fast, serving dish after dish, quickly clearing half of the cart.
âWait, wait, hold on!â
âYou must have served the wrong dishes! This red juice sea cucumber, and the abalone, those shouldnât be mine! I only ordered Set Meal 1!â Ding Bo hurriedly called out.
The waitress looked at him puzzledly, âIt was this gentleman and lady who ordered these.â
âRight, right, it was me who ordered them. Mr. Ding, Iâve never eaten abalone or sea cucumber before, so I wanted to try them. Itâs okay, right?â Gu Muxi looked at him with her big, watery eyes, showing a pitiful expression.
Ding Boâs heart melted instantly, âCough cough, itâs okay, I was just asking. If you want to eat, then eat, itâs fine, this little amount of money is nothing.â
âI think that a man should have some financial strength.â
âBrother Yi, this is where youâre wrong. As a boyfriend, you havenât even let Gu Muxi eat abalone or sea cucumber?â
He immediately compared himself with Yi Feng.
He had money, although not a lot, but living a slightly better life was completely no problem.
But how poor is Yi Feng? With such a manâs conditions, how can he provide security to a woman?
Gu Muxi, get angry, quickly give Yi Feng a disdainful look, hehe!
Yi Feng nodded and smiled, âYes, so today I let her loosen up a bit, order whatever, eat whatever!â
Gu Muxi, holding Yi Fengâs hand, sweetly said, âAh, dear, youâre so good~â
Boom!
Ding Bo was petrified!
Damn!
Damn!
Please, this meal is on me, okay?!
What does it have to do with Yi Feng!
Gu Muxi, itâs me whoâs treating!
Itâs me!
âCome on, Mr. Ding, donât just stand there, eat, eat whatever you want, donât be shy!â Yi Feng picked up a sea cucumber and threw it into his mouth, delicious.
Ding Bo: âå¸(ï½â³Â´ï¼)!â
Spending my money, why the hell would I be shy.
Wait, thatâs what I should be saying!
Damn!
Ding Boâs face was filled with gloom, angrily grabbing a char siu bao and biting into it fiercely.
After the waitress served a cart full of dishes, over twenty varieties piling up half the table, another male waiter came with another cart.
âExcuse me, sir, let me serve your dishes.â
Ding Bo: âÑ(ºÐºÑ)ï¼ï¼â
Damn! Thereâs more?!
âAh, Mr. Ding, these are what I ordered. Iâve never eaten abalone or sea cucumber before either, and I was afraid this wouldnât be enough, so I ordered a few more, and about the others⦠I also wanted to try, itâs okay, right?â Yi Feng smiled.
âYouâ¦â Just as Ding Bo was about to erupt, he was immediately interrupted by Gu Muxi.
âDear, how can you speak to Mr. Ding like that? Mr. Ding is so generous, so open-minded, and so wealthy, would he mind this little bit?â
âBy saying that, arenât you belittling Mr. Ding?â
âRight, Mr. Ding?â Gu Muxi showered him with flattery.
Ding Boâs face turned extremely ugly. He looked at Gu Muxiâs slightly admiring eyes and forced a smile, âAh, right, just a little thing, a little money, itâs fine, itâs fine.â
He said that, but his heart was bleeding, no, it was gushing blood!
He pressed a hand against his chest.
Pain, it was truly too painful!
âAh, my apologies, my apologies. Here, Iâll toast you with tea instead of wine, to Mr. Ding!ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âMr. Ding is generous, magnanimous, and has a broad perspective, incomparable to me!â
âHere, a toast to you!â Yi Feng raised his cup, earnestly.
Ding Bo tugged at the corner of his mouth, raised his cup in response, and downed it, the bitter tea hitting his throat!
The table was too small, and two carts of dishes couldnât fit, so the male waiter left one cart beside, with half of the dishes still not served.
Ding Bo glanced at it, feeling even more heartache.
How much will the bill be later?
But, at this point, he could only brace himself, needing to show off his wealth.
âCome on, Gu Muxi, eat more, you look a bit thin!â Ding Bo called out sweetly, trying different ways to say Gu Muxi was thin. Girls, after all, like hearing they are thin, itâs a compliment.
âYes, dear, look, Mr. Ding said youâve gotten thinner, come on, Iâll feed you a shrimp dumpling.â Yi Feng picked up a shrimp dumpling and brought it to Gu Muxiâs mouth.
Gu Muxi, very cooperatively, opened her mouth and ate it, smiling sweetly, âMmm! Itâs really tasty~ Thank you, dear!â
âMmm~â
Gu Muxi sent him an air kiss.
âMmm~â Yi Feng returned one.
The two were sweet and full of dog food.
But Ding Bo, seeing this, his face grew uglier, as if a knife was stabbing his heart!
Damn it!
Spending my money and feeding me dog food, is there no justice?!
No justice!
Damn it!
You, youâre bullying me too much!
Ding Bo wanted to cry but had no tears, only able to turn his inner sorrow into appetite, fiercely devouring the char siu bao.
He saw a piece of abalone left on a plate, just about to reach for it with his chopsticks.
Suddenly, a pair of chopsticks, with the speed of lightning, snatched the last piece of abalone from the plate.
âAh, Mr. Ding, did you want to eat it too? How about I let you have it?â Yi Feng said seriously.
Ding Bo put down his chopsticks, covered his face, and his voice trembled, âYou, you eat itâ¦â
âAh, Mr. Ding, whatâs wrong? Is there something in your eye?â
âYeah, I think some sand got in just now.â
