Chapter 2700 — What Is in the Backpack?
The Blossom Guardian · Page 1 of 2
"I never said I'd finish it all today. I'll keep eating the leftovers tomorrow, and the day after that too—every day, every month, and sooner or later it'll all be gone," Yu Xiaoke said indifferently, then waved to the owner: "Boss, two large bowls of knife-cut noodles!"
"Coming right up. Meat and egg?" the owner asked.
"No extras," Yu Xiaoke said with a shake of her head.
"Side dishes?" the owner asked.
"None of those either," Yu Xiaoke refused.
"The side dishes here look pretty good. How about we get one?" Wei Zhao glanced at the side dishes; they were decently made, especially the tossed vegetable dish—glossy with red chili oil and quite tempting.
"No. They're not good," Yu Xiaoke said.
"Then I'll order one for myself?" Wei Zhao asked.
"Eat it yourself. That doesn't count as you treating me," Yu Xiaoke said.
"Fine, I'll spend my own money." Wei Zhao guessed that Yu Xiaoke was a cheapskate. Smiling, he stood up and had the owner dish out two plates of side dishes, then paid the owner, simply settling the bill for the two bowls of noodles as well.
The side dishes and the knife-cut noodles were set on the table almost at the same time. Yu Xiaoke picked up her chopsticks and unceremoniously dug into the side dishes—before she had even bothered to touch the noodles, she had polished off one whole plate!
"Didn't you say the side dishes weren't good?" Wei Zhao broke into a sweat watching Yu Xiaoke wolf down her food, yet he also felt a pang of sorrow. The Yu Xiaoke of today handled funds in the tens of millions with every transaction, but judging by the way she ate, she probably never got anything decent normally—otherwise she wouldn't be devouring her food like this here!
"Oh, they're usually not good. Today's are pretty tasty. Don't tell me you think I'm eating too much and don't want to treat me anymore? Then I'll leave?" Yu Xiaoke glanced at Wei Zhao and said without so much as a blush or a skipped heartbeat.
"Then eat up..." Wei Zhao chuckled and called for the owner to bring two more plates of side dishes, only to be glared at by Yu Xiaoke!
"Ordering so much—if you can't finish it, isn't that a waste?" Yu Xiaoke stopped the owner and had him bring just one more plate.
"Oink, oink..." The Heavenly Thunder Pig caught the aroma of the food and started squealing. Having lived with Wei Zhao for a long time, the little pig had begun eating human food too. After all, the true qi it cultivated all came from Wei Zhao, so it no longer needed to eat rare treasures of heaven and earth. With nothing else to eat normally, it just followed along and ate some human meals. Unexpectedly, it had gotten hooked on the stuff—it wouldn't eat pork, but it would even eat dog meat, until Mighty General gave it a beating and it finally behaved.
Wei Zhao frowned, startled! This Heavenly Thunder Pig was a real troublemaker—why did it have to squeal now? Was it trying to let Yu Xiaoke discover him?
Sure enough, Yu Xiaoke had heard the earlier "oink, oink" too, and gave Wei Zhao an odd look: "What's that in your backpack? Why is it making strange noises?"
"Oh, it's an inflatable toy," Wei Zhao said offhandedly, then raised his fist and thumped the backpack twice. The Heavenly Thunder Pig, stung by the pain, let out two more "oink, oinks," but this time it behaved and didn't dare squeal at random.
"An inflatable toy?" Yu Xiaoke was briefly taken aback, but she misunderstood—she thought he meant an inflatable doll. She gave a cold snort. "How disgusting!"
No wonder her thoughts had taken that turn. Wei Zhao was a grown man; there was no way he'd buy the kind of inflatable toys little kids played with. The only thing he could play with was an inflatable doll—and one that could make noises at that... So Yu Xiaoke quite naturally took the "oink, oink" sounds to be the noises of that inflatable doll luring men on!
How shameless. An inflatable doll that even says "jj"?
