Chapter 142 - Hot Pot (1) (2/2)

As soon as he finished speaking, a girl in a black chef’s uniform walked into the hall with two plates of white meat. She placed the two plates on the bar and took out a knife. Smiling to the two tables of customers, she said, “Sorry for the wait.”

The girl was only about twenty and no taller than 160cm. She had delicate features and a thin figure. When she picked up the bulky iron cleaver, everyone was worried that she wouldn’t be able to hold it well and that the weight of the cleaver would break that dainty arm.

But soon, the cleaver was in her hand, and she was able to twirl the cleaver easily ono her palm like an acrobatics show.

The director clapped and shouted, “Amazing!”

The bar was situated right in front of the two tables and it only went up to the girl’s waist. Li Murou served up to pieces of white meat that was kept frozen at a low temperature. With gentle strokes of her knife, she cut the meat into slices.

Each slice of meat was cut paper-thin. After she put together about a hundred slices arranged on a plate, she brought them to the table.

Lin Yueqi was clearly hungry too, and she couldn’t stand the aroma.

Who under the heavens could stand the temptation of food?

Once the meat was served, everyone started moving their chopsticks. Only Lin Yueqi was holding down her stomach desperately, watching everyone else at the table chow down.

The director slurped up about a dozen meat slices before he asked Lin Yueqi, “Xiao Lin, aren’t you eating?”

Lin Yueqi swallowed her spit again and shook her head, rubbing her stomach. “The movie just finished shooting, I’ll have to start losing weight. I really can’t eat more. I’ll just watch you guys eat while I drink water.”

But under the scent of the food, the tea just tasted bland in her mouth.

75 kilos may not be much for a normal person, but for an actress, it could completely destroy her future in the industry.

As soon as her voice trailed off, diet-fiend Qi Mo picked up a piece of meat and dipped it into the soup pot, fishing it out in just a few seconds. He deliberately brought the cooked meat in front of Lin Yueqi, shaking it. Under the light, she could see the cooked meat coated in a translucent shine.

A wave of insuppressible hunger rushed into her nose, but Lin Yueqi’s stomach was doing its best to resist. Due to her extreme reticence, her forehead was covered in a layer of sweat.
