How did having a al get you worked up?
And why did you suddenly start pointing at the eel rice and saying things with heartfelt sincerity that humans can't understand?
Things like "The army can be deprived of its commanding general, but raw at can't be deprived of its beef ambition," "As the heaven's movents are vigorous, so should a gentleman strive unceasingly with cooked at slices," "An old steed in the stable, with ambitions of a thousand miles; no translation, mother sells criticism"...
Well, it's just these two, even if "three people" now see Lin Li and Bai Bufan suddenly deciding to swear allegiance to eel at, they wouldn't be surprised, they'd rely distance themselves and act like they don't know the two.
Eat if you want.
The girls shook their heads, exchanged a helpless glance, then lowered their heads to chat among themselves, ignoring the two.
…
With the barley tea in his cup running out, Lin Li got up, ready to refill.
"Wait, get a cup too," Bai Bufan quickly drank the remaining brown sugar water in his cup upon seeing this and handed it to Lin Li:
"The sugar water is sticky and doesn't quench thirst at all. This ti let's get the free, serious barley tea from this place, cold, thanks, dad."
Having given clear instructions, Lin Li's code had to run normally, and soon, he ca back with two cups of drinks.
"Cheers..."
Lin Li smacked his lips, looked disdainfully at the miso soup in front of him.
"What's up, doesn't it taste good?" Bai Bufan asked upon noticing Lin Li's expression.
"Yeah, not quite right," Lin Li stated bluntly, "It tastes like overly salty dishwater, feels like I need sothing to pair with it to swallow."
Anyway, whether it was this restaurant's miso soup or not, Lin Li drank it and couldn't sincerely say 'five ants' and 'oh yish.'
"Then let it sit for a while, maybe it'll taste good," Bai Bufan suggested.
"Have you had it before? Does it get better when it's cool?" Lin Li was sowhat curious at Bai Bufan's serious suggestion.
Bai Bufan: "No, but I heard ti dilutes everything. Weren't you saying it's overly salty? Wait for ti to dilute it, maybe it'll taste a lot better."
Lin Li: "..."
Your mom.
That ti is too powerful.
Upon seeing Lin Li's middle finger, Bai Bufan was like soone who found the perfect snack while drinking, sipping his iced barley tea, satisfied and shaking his head: "Tea is still best."
Lin Li heard this, glanced sideways at him, a mocking smile curling at his lips.
"Any comnts?" Bai Bufan squinted his eyes, seeing it was too obvious.
"Nothing." Lin Li waved his hand with a smile, but his eyes were full of pity and disdain, "Just experiencing the pathetic thick wall between , as an adult, and you kids."
"Really?" Bai Bufan frowned, "I just said five words, right? I can understand if you sensed my hosickness, but how could you pick up on the thick wall?"
"Only kids like you talk about drinking tea," Lin Li retorted indifferently.
"Oh—? Now I'm curious, how do you adults say it?" Bai Bufan laughed, dragging his tone.
Lin Li: "Adult goods."
"..."
"..."
"Never heard of it?" Lin Li pursued.
"..."
In the silence, the temperature in the restaurant seed to drop several degrees.
"Your mom, it's so cold..." Bai Bufan shivered, wrapped his coat closer, glanced at Lin Li, then shook his head, unable to bring himself to watch and looked away.
Is this Lin Li's revenge against his own ti? Ha ha.
"Stop with the cold jokes," Chen Yu Ying, with a faint smile, had already ticulously wiped her mouth with a napkin, raised her eyes at the two boys, chin slightly lifted: "I'll leave the rest to you guys."
The girls were just about full.
"OK." Lin Li and Bai Bufan nodded, then switched into Bao Wei mode, starting to eat like a bottomless pit.
"..."
"Click."
Hearing Lin Li and Bai Bufan place their chopsticks on the porcelain plate, Ding Sihan, who was looking at her phone, lifted her head. The two were already wiping their mouths, she confird: "Done?"
"Yeah, yeah."
"Full."
The two nodded.
"Alright, Wanqiu, give the bill, I'll go settle it." Ding Sihan reached out for the billing slip by Qu Wanqiu.
"Wait—"
Lin Li elegantly grasped the napkin with two fingers, slowly dabbed his lips twice more, then flicked his wrist, the napkin floating precisely in front of Bai Bufan.
Lin Li maintained the two-finger pose, leisurely reached into his pocket and pulled out a bank card.
With a flick of the wrist, the card landed with a snap on the table in front of Ding Sihan.
Upon noticing Ding Sihan's gaze, Lin Li's eyes held a third coolness, a third mocking, and four parts nonchalance, lazily tapping the table, his tone arrogant yet playful:
"How could sorting out the bill exclude ? Dingzi, six zeros, go ahead and swipe."
Ding Sihan laughed coldly: "Ha, fooling a fool? Banks don't let you set a password with six zeros, at least pretend before trying to deceive !"
But Lin Li's expression changed to pure innocence, his tone normal in an instant:
"I didn't say the password was six zeros, I ant the balance is six zeros."
Ding Sihan: "?"
"What I an by giving you this card is—"
Lin Li pressed his palms together, his voice ingratiating:
"Sister Ding, I'm so broke I can't cook anymore, after you pay, note the card number and send so money, no matter how much, a hundred or two hundred would be appreciated, even a di or two would be considered love, just think of the money as feeding a dog, I'm begging you, Sister Ding."
From an arrogant boss to a bootlicking pup, Lin Li needs just three seconds.
Ding Sihan: "(;☉_☉)?"
"Crazy! Begging has co to now!"
