Chapter 176: Breaking the ice
Le Yao Yao wasn’t the only one surprised. Even Leng Jun Yu was caught off guard. Initially, Leng Jun Yu had no interest in trying the stinky tofu. But after seeing how certain Le Yao Yao was, his frozen pupils flickered.
“You’re not senior brother. How would you know he wouldn’t eat it?! Right, senior brother?!” Nangong Jun Xi refuted.
Leng Jun Yu lightly made a “mm” sound. Then, he picked up a piece of sticky tofu with his chopsticks.
“Cousin Yu, you’re really going to eat this? It looks so unhealthy! Don’t eat it!”
Seeing Leng Jun Yu’s gesture, Nian Sulan was freaking out. After all, although they haven’t seen each other in five years, they did grow up together. She knew Leng Jun Yu’s personality. She was also aware that he was a super picky eater; unless it was the best of the best, he wouldn’t even touch it.
In addition, Nian Sulan was worried that the stinky tofu would give him diarrhea. So now, she was determined to stop him.
However, Leng Jun Yu ignored her and placed the stinky tofu in his mouth.
Le Yao Yao was attentively staring at Leng Jun Yu. She was afraid to miss a single expression.
But Leng Jun Yu’s face remained unchanged the entire time. His expressionless face made it impossible for others to guess his thoughts.
Le Yao Yao was curious though. After all, the King of Hell had always been super picky. Furthermore, he had a tendency to look down on everything due to his noble status.
Was he eating it because he was curious?
While Le Yao Yao was trying to figure it out, Leng Jun Yu thought to himself,
So, “he” like this. He will note it down…
—–
By the time everyone was full, it was already very late. But businesses by the river bank of West Lake were still flourishing. Despite how far they were from ashore, they could hear the noises and clamours of laughter. There were definitely many drunk people having a great time.
As for the group on the boat, they were wide awake despite eating a hearty meal. Everyone was enjoying the cool light breeze on the deck. It was very satisfying.
By now, the server on the boat had removed all the empty dishes. He replaced them with a pot of highest quality tea, some wine, fruits and pastries.
Since Le Yao Yao was very full, she was feeling extremely lazy. Currently, she had her hands around her round tummy as she smiled blissfully.
Seeing this, Dongfang Bai picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Le Yao Yao. He handed it to her and warmly stated, “Here, drink some tea to nourish your throat!”
“Mm, thank you, brother Bai!”
At this moment, Nian Sulan also decided to pour Leng Jun Yu a cup of tea. She gazed at his icy face lovingly. “Cousin Yu, please drink tea instead! Alcohol is bad for the body.”
Le Yao Yao couldn’t help but look up to observe them. Currently, Nian Sulan was sitting even closer by the King of Hell. The way she was leaning on the King of Hell made it appear as if her body was boneless. Her posture was very seductive because her body was extremely appealing.
Based on Le Yao Yao’s observations, Nian Sulan was at least a 36 cup. It was so depressing because she wasn’t even a 32!
So, Le Yao Yao stared at Nian Sulan’s boobs, and then she lowered her head and compared it with her non-existing ones. The corner of her mouth couldn’t help but twitch.
When will this body ever look like Nian Sulan’s? She must definitely eat more papaya when she returns!
Le Yao Yao’s despair was very obvious. Right now, her brows were crinkled and her mouth was pouting. All her emotions could be read on her face.
Since Dongfang Bai had all his attention on her, he knew exactly what was going on. Seeing this, Dongfang Bai couldn’t help but choke on his tea as he spat it all out.
Coincidentally, Nian Sulan was the one sitting across from him.
At this moment, half of Nian Sulan’s body was on Leng Jun Yu’s arm. She was actually pressing her 36 sized boobs on Leng Jun Yu.
After all, by nature, humans desired food and sex. Which man wouldn’t love big boobs?
Nian Sulan was very well aware of her appeals. Although Leng Jun Yu was silent the whole time, he must enjoy getting affection from her, right?
However, Nian Sulan had failed to notice that each time she brushed her big chest on Leng Jun Yu’s arm, there would be a look of disgust in his eyes. Leng Jun Yu would move back a bit to widen the distance between them.
But, Nian Sulan assumed Leng Jun Yu was only acting like this because he was shy. So, she was beaming on the inside because she thought it had a positive effect on him.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Dongfang Bai spat hot tea all over her face.
Nian Sulan instantly screamed and leaped up from her seat. Her makeup was melting!
Which woman wouldn’t want to look good? Today, she spent two hours on her hair, makeup, and outfit in order to impress the man she loved. She wanted to show him the best side of her.
In addition, she actually thought her presentation and behaviour was quite good today. Who would’ve thought that something so tragic would happen to her?!
Nian Sulan angrily glared at Dongfang Bai.
Dongfang Bai knew it was his fault and was extremely apologetic. “Nian maiden, I’m so sorry. I honestly didn’t do it on purpose….”
Although Nian Sulan knew Dongfang Bai had no intentions of making her look bad, she was still furious.
But after she cried out so loudly, Nian Sulan realized she had shown a lack of manners in front of the man she loved. Furthermore, she knew that Dongfang Bai was a close friend of Leng Jun Yu. So, Nian Sulan quickly altered her behaviour and tried to form a proper smile on her face.
“It’s f-fine. I’m going to fix my appearance. You guys can continue without me.”
Then, Nian Sulan swiftly departed and went inside the boat to fix her makeup.
Since Nian Sulan dismissed herself, the deck was very quiet. No one said anything and Dongfang Bai felt very guilty.
Seeing this, Leng Jun Yu finally broke the silence and comforted Dongfang Bai, “Don’t blame yourself too much. It was an accident.”
“Ai, I had forgotten my manners.”
“Bai, you usually wouldn’t be so careless. What triggered you? Tell us!”
“Uh…”
Since Nangong Jun Xi asked, Dongfang Bai recalled the incident once again and thought it was hilarious. How could he tell them out loud?
Le Yao Yao was also very curious as she turned to Dongfang Bai. However, Dongfang Bai only smiled and remained silent. But when he noticed Le Yao Yao was staring at him, he began to blush.
Le Yao Yao didn’t notice this, but Leng Jun Yu saw everything. He subconsciously raised his handsome brows and his eyes gleamed.
Soon, Nian Sulan returned with her face redone. She looked so good that it was impossible to tell what had happened earlier.
However, because of what had happened, right now the deck was very quiet. The atmosphere was very awkward.
Seeing this, Le Yao Yao decided to break the ice. She thought of something and her eyes lit up. Then, her red lips curved into a smile.
“Why don’t we play guessing the riddle?”
“Guessing riddles? Sure!”
Nangong Jun Xi knew that Le Yao Yao was trying to warm the atmosphere so he agreed immediately. “Who’s first?’
“I’ll go first.” Le Yao Yao stated.
Since there were no objections, she began, “There is a pig and a donkey. The owner only wanted to kill one. Who do you think died first?”
“Xiao Zhu Zi, what kind of riddle is this? It’s so weird!”
Le Yao Yao rolled her eyes at Nangong Jun XI, “Why is it weird? You’re just saying it’s weird because you don’t know the answer!”
“Eh…” Nangong Jun Xi was speechless by Le Yao Yao’s bluntness. But honestly, he didn’t know the answer!
Le Yao Yao looked around her and asked, “So, are you guys going to guess?”
“Haha…” Dongfang Bai only laughed but didn’t respond. His eyes were filled with wisdom though. It was obvious that he had already figured out the answer.
