Chapter 562 - An Old Flame (2/2)
“…” What the hell Flower, would you die if you don’t give people nicknames?
“Flower should be considered… my classmate.”
“Just a classmate?” Lonemoon narrowed his eyes in suspicion.
“If not?”
“I heard from the people from the committee that he…” Before he could finish, he suddenly heard a few beeps, his and Shen Ying’s wristband lit up with a red light simultaneously, at the same time, the plane gate had signs of being activated.
He stood up abruptly. “Is it an intrusion?”
“No.” Shen Ying explained and on this rare occasion, took the initiative to open the plane gate. “It’s someone I called.”
In the next second, a familiar-looking man walked out of the plane gate, looking all handsome in a suit. Lifting his head and looking towards Shen Ying, his lips immediately lifted into a smile, his entire being like the warm sun on a winter afternoon. “Little Ying, I’m here.” It was the Mi Le that they had seen once outside the materials room.
Clang!
The sound of something being broken sounded from behind them. The three turned back instinctively and saw Chef standing at the entrance of the kitchen starting dazedly in their direction, a dish that had just been overturned by his feet.
“Sorry, Master! I’ll make another one.” Chef hurriedly squatted down, slightly panicking as he wanted to pick up the broken pieces of the plate on the floor. He seemed to have been shocked himself, as he had actually forgotten to use his spells.
“Had he been too tired from cooking that his hand trembled? Shen Ying suddenly began to reflect on she’d been too hard on her worker. After some thought she immediately waved her hand, saying, “There’s no need to cook anymore today, Chef, you come here too.”
Yi Qing faltered, his eyes instantly dimming, but he still nodded obediently. “Yes, Master.”
“Are these two your assistants?” Mi Le looked curiously at Lonemoon and Yi Qing.
“Mm.” Shen Ying nodded and continued, “Alright, let’s talk business.”
“Little Ying…” Mi Le’s gaze dulled, he said in a slightly sad tone, “I avoided so many people and so anxiously rushed here to help you. And you’re not even showing me any concern, you didn’t treat me like this in the past.”
“Oh.” Shen Ying darted a look at him. “You want me to show you concern?”
MI Le’s stiffened then recovered immediately. He said with an exceedingly gentle smile, “Sure, sure, sure, anything you say! Whose fault is it that you are my only classmate, when I have made you upset before? But for safety’s sake, at least three!”
“One!” Shen Ying retorted directly.
“Two and a half!”
“One!”
“Two!”
“Two and a half!”
“One!”
“Alright, deal!”
Mi Le: “…”
The corner of his lips twitched as he sighed after a moment and said with a resigned look. “How have I treated you all these years? Are you still not clear? I only have such a small wish, can’t you give in to me just once?”
“No!”
Mi Le panicked and took a step forward, dropped to one knee and grabbed Shen Ying’s hand. “Little Ying…”
Before he could finish, Lonemoon and Yi Qing beside them were at the same time.
“Hold on…” Lonemoon could not help but spoke up and interrupted, while Chef directly pulled Shen Ying into his arms. “Why am I getting more confused the more I listen on, what are you two doing? Acting in a drama?” The kind with an infatuated male lead.
“Huh? You two are…” Instead, Mi Le was stunned. “Has Little Ying not told you about us? We are…”
“Alright!” Shen Ying glanced at him and cut him short. “Say it, what problem do you have now? How do you want me to help you?”
