Chapter 154 I Feel Like a Scumbag
Chapter 154 I Feel Like a Scumbag
When they came out of the hospital, it was already late at night, so they had to go back to the hotel where Xinglu lived and stayed in the same room. After Xinglu accompanied her to check in, they went home. She also brought some crayfish with her, planning to take them back for her parents to try.
Yue Yue said it was okay to try it tomorrow, just heat it up and stir-fry it. Xinglu said it was delicious that day, so she went home overnight.
The two who were sleeping soundly were woken up from the bed by their daughter. Both of them were sleepy-eyed. Star's father yawned and said with murderous intent.
"You better have something important to do."
Xinglu didn't say anything. She took out the crayfish from the cube, opened the lid and shook it in front of the two people.
The rich and strange fragrance made the two of them open their eyes suddenly wide, and they both looked at the food in Xinglu's hand.
"What is this? It smells so good."
"Is this shrimp? It looks weird. Is it delicious?"
Xinglu proudly walked to the dining room carrying the crayfish. The two men followed behind her like wandering souls, their eyes fixed on the crayfish in her hand.
"This is the friend who makes snail noodles that I mentioned to you before. She's selling crayfish this week, and I bought them especially for you. They're in a cubic insulated box. Come on, eat them while they're hot, and don't say I didn't think of you."
"As I was thinking about it," Dad Xing stared at the crayfish and nodded repeatedly, not even moving his head.
Xing's mother was more direct. She pulled the gloves next to her and put them on quickly, holding a shrimp in her hand and looking at Xinglu.
"Lulu, how do you eat this?"
Xinglu put on gloves and demonstrated to the two of them: "This is the way Yueyue taught me to eat it. She said that this way of peeling is the most convenient and complete. And here, here is what you can eat."
The two of them followed her instructions, and although they were a little slow in peeling, they still managed to peel the shrimp tails completely.
Before the two of them put it in their mouths, Xinglu suddenly thought of something and asked, "Can you two drink alcohol? There's some wine in it for flavoring. Yueyue said it was white wine or cooking wine, but I don't know. Anyway, if you can't drink it, you'd better not eat it."
Not eating? How is that possible!
Dad Xing straightened his chest and said, "Although I can't drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, I can still drink a lot. Don't underestimate me!"
Xing's mother also nodded and said that she could drink quite well.
As the richest man, socializing is inevitable, and both of them can drink a lot.
Since they said so, Xinglu naturally believed it.
He nodded and said nothing more, just looked down at the crayfish in the two women's hands with envy.
She wanted to eat some, too, but when she thought about how she got drunk after eating more than ten, she didn’t want to go through that again.
It just so happened that the celebrity's parents were already enjoying the meal, and their hands were peeling the lobster so fast that they were almost out of sight.
"It's delicious, Lulu, you are such a great friend. This is the first time in my life that I have eaten such delicious food. This is called crayfish. Although it's a little ugly, it's really delicious."
Xing's mother also kept nodding and saying it was delicious.
Unbearable!
Xinglu also put on gloves and reached out to the crayfish.
Of course, she did not forget to remind her parents.
"Mom and Dad, I can't drink much. Don't be surprised if I pass out while eating. You don't have to send me to the hospital. Just give me some medicine to drink.
While putting the drink into his mouth, the star's father complained about his daughter: "You can't drink well? When you were at a party before, I remember drinking at least a box of wine!"
In their family, drinking capacity is something that is acquired through practice, but Xinglu’s alcohol capacity is naturally very good. But now she says that her alcohol capacity is not good?
Xinglu explained as she ate: "I have no problem drinking the wine we usually drink, but I have never drunk the white wine and cooking wine that Yueyue used before, so I get drunk easily. I ate more than a dozen today, and then..."
Before he could finish his words, he fell down.
Xing's parents were startled and immediately took off their gloves and ran over.
"Lulu!"
"She's probably drunk. It's okay. Just feed her a potion." As he said that, Xing's father took out the potion and fed it to Xinglu, who then woke up.
The two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Xinglu looked at the empty potion bottle in her father's hand and knew that she was drunk again. She smiled embarrassedly and then started eating again heartlessly.
The star dad and his partner were stunned watching from behind.
"Lulu, you'll get drunk easily if you eat this, why are you still eating it?"
Xinglu waved her hand disapprovingly:
"Oh, it's okay. I got drunk once at Yueyue's place. I went to the hospital for a checkup and the doctor said I was just drunk. He also said I was healthy and had no other problems. So don't worry, mom and dad. Just give me some medicine when I'm drunk."
Star Parents: …
Although I don’t know how much these bowls of crayfish cost, they are definitely not as expensive as the medicine I fed her tonight.
The two of them had just sat down and put on their gloves and had just eaten one when the Star Dew fell onto the table again.
……
Xing's father: "How about we not feed her the potion yet, we both eat some first and feed her later."
Xing's mother said without hesitation: "Okay."
If Xinglu hadn't gotten drunk so quickly, they wouldn't have found it so troublesome.
They each had one portion. After showing off, Xing's father muttered that he had not eaten enough, and slowly got up and fed Xinglu the potion.
After Xinglu woke up, she stretched out her hands and started grabbing things just like an NPC. Then she saw that all the takeout boxes on the table were empty, except for the one next to her which still had a few food left.
"Mom and Dad, these are the only few you left for me?"
Mom Xing was a little embarrassed, but Dad Xing was not at all. "Oh, what you brought is not enough for the two of us. It's good enough that I left some for you. Besides, it's troublesome for you to eat. You get drunk after eating a few. You also need to drink potions. It's a waste of money."
Xinglu didn't avoid the two of them at all. She rolled her eyes and said, "I knew it." Then she waved her hand and the remaining crayfish filled the table.
"How could I buy only a few? I asked for fifty!"
Although her original intention was to eat more than ten servings herself and bring back thirty servings, she didn't expect that she would get drunk after eating more than a dozen, so she brought back only so many.
"Okay, you're smart. Buy more tomorrow. Also, eat slowly."
Xinglu knew without even thinking that the two of them were definitely planning to eat to their heart's content like they did just now, and then wake her up, so she reminded them slowly.
"If you guys act like you just did, I won't bring back any crayfish tomorrow."
Star's parents looked at each other.
This kid knows where to buy it.
Only she knows.
After they had the same idea, they both gave up their previous thoughts.
In the second half of the night, the family of three maintained a strange pace.
Xinglu has her father on her left and her mother on her right. The three of them use their left and right hands to eat. After a while, Xinglu fell down. Her father took off his gloves and fed her a potion. After a while, she fell down again. Her mother took off her gloves and fed her a potion.

After waking up, Yue Yue felt depressed when seeing the message from Chu Yu on her phone.
After the video call was connected, the two looked at each other in silence.
Yue Yue was in good spirits, but Chu Yu was visibly not in good condition. His skin was dull, he had dark circles under his eyes, and there were red bloodshot eyes.
After a long silence, Yue Yue took the initiative to show concern.
"You haven't been sleeping well lately? Is it serious?"
Seeing that she was willing to talk to him again, Chu Yu visibly relaxed.
He stroked his brows gently: "Well, because of the Queen Mother's matter, we have now gone to war with other countries. I am leading troops in the south. During this period of time, because of the occasional raids, I have no time to call you. Yue Yue, will you blame me?"
Yue Yue shook her head: "No."
Not to mention that they are all adults and have their own things to do, just looking at Chu Yu's identity, she couldn't blame him for these things.
And now it's obviously my own problem.
Yue Yue lowered his head, and Chu Yu's originally raised mouth corners were also straightened.
"Yueyue, do you have something to tell me?"
Yue Yue nodded, "Well, I was thinking..."
"Yueyue," Chu Yu interrupted her and looked at her tenderly, "I know what you want to say. Yueyue, can you listen to me first?"
Yue Yue nodded slightly.
"We are together less often than we are apart, and I don't know if you will come into my world in the future. But what remains unchanged is that I still like you. I like you now and I will like you in the future. Yueyue, I will not restrict you. I just hope to keep my place in your heart."
Yue Yue was stunned when she heard his words. Did this mean what she thought?
But why does Chu Yu’s expression feel a little strange?
009 thought to himself: Of course it’s strange, he speaks so generously, but I wonder what bad ideas he is thinking.
He sees through Chu Yu.
When they went shopping together, the girls were jealous, not to mention the boys. He didn't believe that they didn't have some thoughts when they said these things.
Chu Yu observed Yue Yue's expression. In the video, she had a gentle smile on her face. Outside the video, her hand hanging by her side had broken the brush in her hand. Her hand was covered in blood and debris, but her expression did not change at all.
"Yueyue, you are excellent, and your abilities are amazing and powerful, but you are also lonely because of your abilities. I hope that when I am not around, someone will accompany you, take care of you, and protect you. You don't have to feel guilty or sorry for me. I won't feel anything. There is only one thing. If one day you like someone else more than you like me, I hope you can tell me."
After that, Chu Yu added: "I believe you like me too, we can still get along normally as a couple like now, but I won't interfere with you in anything, I just hope you can think more about me, I'm about to launch a night raid here, I'm going to hang up first, we'll talk again when we're free."
At the end of the video, Chu Yu lowered his head and said, "Yueyue, what I hope most is that you can be happy."
After that, the video was hung up.
Yue Yue felt a little sad.
She didn't know whether what she did was right or wrong. She felt like a real scumbag and was very sorry to Chu Yu.
009 saw that she was stuck in a dead end, so he kept silent and let her think for herself.
Admittedly, he felt that his host should have many handsome men and live a happy life of choosing concubines, but if Yue Yue herself really couldn't accept it, he wouldn't think it was a big deal.
Yue Yue thought about it for a while and then gave up. Forget it, just let things take their course.
With this time, she could go and prepare the ingredients. Rather than worrying about love affairs, the most important thing is to complete her task first.
the other side……
Chu Yu looked at the blood in his hand, his face as gloomy as the sky before a thunderstorm, depressing and deep, making people shudder.
If he hadn't realized that the girl might say something he didn't want to hear, why would he pretend to be generous and not care? Oh, how could he not care?
He just didn't want to hear anything about breaking up.
If Yue Yue said this in front of him, he would tie her up directly, but he couldn't scare her through the video, otherwise he was afraid that he would never see her again.
As for the other men, just wait and see. If he gets the chance to get close to her, I’ll kill him one by one!
By then, nothing can separate me and Yueyue.
At this moment, Chu Yu was already regretting not following them.
There are generals in the Celestial Empire, but it doesn't mean he has to lead the troops. His mother chose to stay here because the situation was a bit troublesome at the time, and now it is completely fine if he is not here, but unfortunately, it seems that Yueyue will not come to his world in the near future.
After their video call, Xinglu sent a few messages.
"Yueyue, check the internet. The news of your stall has been leaked somehow. Are you okay? Do you want to move to another place?"
Yue Yue clicked it.
(It seems that the snail noodle boss is setting up a stall again, as shown in the picture, that familiar food truck, although it is in the sea, and what it sells is crayfish, but for the boss's cooking skills, I'm already on the way!)
The picture above is a frontal shot of Yue Yue, who is frying crayfish with her head down. The food truck behind her can also be seen clearly. The original poster is also attached to the back of this photo. When you click on it, you can see that it is indeed a mermaid, and an Internet celebrity mermaid with many fans.
The comments below are relatively normal, because the reason why this mermaid became popular is that she posts videos of herself singing while collecting sea crystals every day. The songs are beautiful, and she is pretty, and coupled with the movements of collecting sea crystals, many people watch it as a stress-relieving video.
Therefore, his fans were paying attention to him instead of the food, but it happened to be seen by her diners, who then forwarded it.
It was posted online and in the group. It seems like he doesn't want to hide it at all.
There's everything in the group.
"Are you sure it's not a fake photo? Yesterday I also saw a photo spanning three planets! I only found out it was fake when I got there. It was just a joke. I'm speechless."
"I saw that one too, but I didn't cross three planets, but I took a day off!"
"And this location is outrageous. No one would really believe it, right? This environment looks like it's in the sea. How can you cook in the sea?"
"That's right, whoever fabricated this is stupid."
"Didn't you see who originally posted this? The first person to post this picture was a mermaid from Hite, who has quite a lot of fans, much more than our group. She shouldn't be using this to gain attention. Anyway, I believe it, and I'm on my way."
"My home is close, and I'm on my way too."
"The royal family said they were researching a recipe before, but there's still no news. Sigh."
"Shhh."
Because Baili and others were in the group, no one dared to speak carelessly. At the beginning, Baili and others would join the groups that were created later, but later they were too lazy to join and just ignored them. Therefore, many people in this group would specifically join the later groups just to speak freely.
Of course, Baili and the others now knew about it, but they did not go directly to Hite. Instead, they sent a message to Yue Yue to confirm first.
After Yue Yue replied "yes", they set off to go to Hite.
