Infinite: Starting from Resident Evil

"It's okay, I can wait." Chi Meng gave her a look that said, "I'm definitely going to treat you to a meal."

"Then you'll have to wait until I finish what I'm doing." Shen Ye knew that Chi Meng was the kind of person who would definitely do what she set her mind to, so he let her be.

After receiving the two new medicines from the pharmacy clerk, Shen Ye immediately turned and left the pharmacy.

"Big brother, wait for me."

Seeing him leave without looking back, Chi Meng thought for a moment, then quickly followed after him.

……

Chapter 445! Five-tenths full

……

In one afternoon, Shen Ye searched almost the entire southern part of the city and finally bought all the medicines on the prescription. Now he was heading to Li Xingyun's clinic.

It was lunchtime, and the aroma of food wafted from the inns and restaurants along the roadside. Chi Meng, who had been walking with Shen Ye all afternoon, was feeling quite tired. She stopped in front of a restaurant, clutching her stomach, and said to the people in front of her:

"Big Brother, it's time. Let's go to that restaurant for dinner."

She had run out of money and hadn't eaten anything at noon. Now, after walking with Shen Ye all afternoon, she was starving.

"If you're hungry, go eat by yourself. I still need to take the medicine back."

Shen Ye didn't stop walking, but just glanced back at her, then waved the medicine he had already bought in his hand.

"No, I promised to treat you to dinner."

Chi Meng shook her head firmly, then glanced at the restaurant with some reluctance before jogging a few steps, clutching her stomach, and continuing to follow Shen Ye.

Shen Ye glanced at the girl beside him who was clutching her stomach, sighed softly, and then stopped in front of a roadside stall selling sesame cakes. He took out some copper coins and handed them to the owner.

"Give me ten sesame seed cakes."

"okay."

After taking the sesame seed cake wrapped in oil paper from the shopkeeper, Shen Ye casually handed it to Chi Meng.

"Eat something to fill your stomach first."

Although she was very hungry, Chi Meng did not accept the offer and said very seriously, "I am the one who is going to treat you to a meal. I can't let you spend money."

As she spoke, she took out a gold ingot and handed it to the pancake stall owner.

"Give the money back to the boss, I'll pay."

Looking at the ten-tael gold ingot, the pancake stall owner was in a dilemma; he couldn't even make change if he sold his entire household.

"He can't make change... Besides, you're the one treating me to dinner, and it's not my money." Shen Ye said very seriously.

Seeing the confusion that suddenly appeared on Chi Meng's face, Shen Ye smiled and explained, "Your little gourd is actually worth more than three hundred taels, but I didn't have that much money on me, so I only gave you more than two hundred taels. In fact, I still owe you more than one hundred taels, so the money I'm spending now is actually your money."

In reality, he had as much gold as he wanted, so how could he possibly spend it all? This was obviously just him trying to fool her.

But Chi Meng didn't know that the naive girl believed it to be true.

"Really?"

"Realer than real gold."

Shen Ye chuckled and stuffed the oil paper package containing the sesame cakes into Chi Meng's hand. Then he took the top piece, took a bite, and said, "See, you paid for it, and then I ate your food. Are you treating me?"

"It seems...yes!" Chi Meng nodded blankly.

"So, since you bought it yourself and treated me to it, can't you eat it too?"

Chi Meng nodded vigorously: "Yes."

"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and eat!"

"it is good!"

Seeing Chi Meng eagerly picking up the sesame seed cake and eating it, Shen Ye shook his head and continued walking forward.

As it turned out, Chi Meng's appetite was indeed astonishing. The two hadn't gone far when Chi Meng had already finished all nine sesame cakes, and judging from the way she was licking the crumbs off her fingers with lingering satisfaction, she was clearly still not full.

Shen Ye had no choice but to buy her a big bag of steamed buns from a stall, but she still finished them before she could eat them all.

So he had no choice but to keep stopping...

By the time Shen Ye returned to the clinic, he had already stopped five times on the way.

"How are you? Have you eaten enough?" Before entering the clinic, Shen Ye turned around and asked Chi Meng, who was patting her flat stomach.

"Filled out!"

Chi Meng waved one hand in front of his eyes.

Shen Ye made an "uh" sound, and then silently entered the clinic.

"The master is back."

"Ok!"

Shi Yao and Lu Linxuan had already returned. When they saw Shen Ye enter, Shi Yao came up to him and took the large stack of medicine packets from his hands. At the same time, she glanced curiously at the alien girl behind him, but since she was a maid now, she didn't ask any questions. She took the medicine packets and walked towards Xuan Jingtian, who was brewing medicine.

However, just because she didn't ask didn't mean Lu Linxuan wouldn't. Looking at the Miao girl behind Shen Ye, who was curiously looking around, she frowned slightly, her tone carrying a hint of meaning.

"Brother Shen, who is she?"

"Chi Meng," Shen Ye replied. He and Chi Meng had already exchanged names.

"Hello, Miss! You're just as good-looking as that older sister from before!" Upon hearing Shen Ye mention her name, Chi Meng stopped scrutinizing Lu Linxuan, waved to him in a friendly manner, and even complimented him in her dialect.

"Thank you, you too." No one dislikes being praised, and Lu Linxuan was no exception. Then she continued to ask Shen Ye, "Brother Shen, did you two know each other before?"

"No, we just met." Shen Ye took the teacup Shi Yao handed him, took a sip, and shook his head.

"Then why did she follow you back to the clinic?" Lu Linxuan frowned again, seemingly forgetting that Chi Meng had just praised her.

Chi Meng replied, "Because Big Brother helped me, I want to treat Big Brother to a meal."

"Big Brother? Help you? Invite him to dinner? Why?" Lu Linxuan was stunned for a moment, and asked in a series of questions.

"That's how it is..."

Chi Meng immediately told her about how she met Shen Ye and why she invited him to dinner.

After listening to Chi Meng's explanation, Lu Linxuan breathed a sigh of relief: "So that's how it is. I thought..."

She was too embarrassed to continue speaking halfway through her sentence.

Chi Meng looked at her strangely: "What did you think? Why didn't you finish what you were saying, Miss?"

"It's nothing." Lu Linxuan's pretty face suddenly turned red, and she turned and ran to help Xuan Jingtian.

"Big brother, what's wrong with the young lady?" Chi Meng could only look at Shen Ye.

"It's nothing, I was just jealous for no reason." Shen Ye smiled and glanced at Lu Linxuan.

This time, it was Chi Meng's turn to be stunned: "Jealous?"

“Yes, she’s jealous. She thinks you’re with me because you like me.” After saying that, Shen Ye also felt a little ashamed for Lu Linxuan. He immediately picked up his teacup and drank some more to hide his embarrassment.

To everyone's surprise, Chi Meng nodded: "But I really like you, Big Brother."

"puff!"

Shen Ye turned her head and spat out a mouthful of tea, but coincidentally, Shi Yao was standing right there and it all sprayed onto her face.

Seeing Shi Yao's aggrieved expression, Shen Ye wiped the water off her face with his sleeve and said to Chi Meng, "Don't talk nonsense, we've only known each other for an afternoon."

Chi Meng said, "But you've been very good to me, even treating me to food. You're a good person, and I like good people."

"So this is what it means to like someone!" Shen Ye breathed a sigh of relief and took another sip of tea to calm himself down.

But soon, Chi Meng's next sentence made him spit out his tea.

"But, you're also very handsome, exactly my type, so I've decided that I want to marry you."

Then, amidst his choking coughs, Shi Yao's soft voice rang out again: "Young Master... could you perhaps choose a different direction next time?"

Chapter 446! A Belated Realization

……

"Cough cough, I'm sorry, Shi Yao, I didn't mean to." After finally stopping his cough, Shen Ye apologized to Shi Yao first, then looked at Chi Meng with a shocked expression.

Do you know what your last words meant?

"I know!" Chi Meng tilted her head slightly and looked at Shen Ye: "Marrying you means becoming your wife."

Shen Ye twitched the corner of his mouth and asked, "Are you serious? We've only known each other for half a day."

“We Miao women never lie about matters of the heart, and what’s wrong with half a day? There are plenty of cases of love at first sight in our area.” Chi Meng said with an expression of matter-of-fact.

That makes so much sense...
