There is no system for the anime, so I have to work hard on my own.

With a creak, the shop door opened.

Ye Yusheng glanced over subconsciously and saw a young couple. Judging from their intimate manner, they were definitely a couple.

But what does it matter? He turned back to the hot pot and buried himself in his food.

A happy smile spread across her face. It was delicious!

Wang Liyue and Xie Siying shook their heads as they watched this scene. Well, there's no point in trying to watch the show.

Since that's the case, let's hurry up and eat, otherwise Ye Yusheng and Kato Megumi will eat it all.

what?

You're saying that just the two of you can't eat that much?

All Wang Liyue can say is that she's too superficial!

Hot pot is only delicious when everyone's fighting over it, isn't it?

If no one's going to fight over it, what's the point of the flavor?!

We might as well just eat coarse grains and wild vegetables.

However, the moment she picked up her chopsticks, Xie Siying's chopsticks instantly picked up a piece of meat and gave her a provocative look.

Seems to be saying--

Hey, are you looking at this piece of meat?

Unfortunately, we can only look at it now.

Then, without hesitation, she popped it into her mouth, looked at Wang Liyue with a smile, and commented, "Not bad."

Wang Liyue: “…”

What kind of fake friendship is this?!

And there's so much meat in the pot, why are you trying to take it from me?!

Don't they have any sense of public morality?!

However, Xie Siying seemed not to notice her resentful gaze, and instead clicked her tongue, looking at her with feigned confusion.

"Crescent Moon, why are you looking at me like that?"

Wang Liyue couldn't help but gasp, her grip on the chopsticks slightly deformed, and she stiffly said, "It's nothing."

He muttered to himself.

Since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!

I don't know if it's just my imagination, but her eyes seem to be sparkling with fire!

Xie Siying, seemingly oblivious, muttered, "Is that so..."

However, she kept an eye on the other party out of the corner of her eye, and as soon as Wang Liyue made the slightest move, she would strike first.

Wang Liyue frowned slightly; as expected, he had ill intentions.

Then, her eyes lit up and she immediately had an idea. She scanned the pot and quickly spotted her target.

It was a thin, yellow slice, tumbling and rolling in the fiery red chili oil broth, occasionally popping its head out like a tempting little imp, begging, "Come on, eat me!"

Wang Liyue looked at the thin slice and couldn't help but swallow.

ah~

Even though I know they're ginger slices, I still can't resist.

Thinking about it, she couldn't help but glance at the untouched plate of potato slices. Fortunately, no potato slices had been added yet.

Otherwise, how would anyone know if they were potato chips?

Then, she secretly glanced at Xie Siyi, deliberately feigning a wary look, and tentatively reached out with her chopsticks.

Seeing that the other party did not make any move, a relaxed smile appeared on her face, as if a great weight had been lifted off her shoulders.

Without hesitation, she quickly reached for her chopsticks.

Seeing her clean and efficient movements, Xie Siying didn't hesitate and immediately reached for the ginger slices with her chopsticks.

Wang Liyue, on the other hand, revealed a hint of annoyance at just the right moment, as if to say, "You dead crab, you've gone too far!"

Xie Siying acted as if she knew nothing, with only a barely perceptible upward curve at the corner of her mouth.

While silently eating, Ye Yusheng sensed the subtle tension between the two and nudged Kato Megumi.

Kato Megumi glared at him, annoyed. "What?"

Ye Yusheng didn't speak, but gestured with his lips to make her look at Wang Liyue and the others. The dissatisfaction in Kato Megumi's eyes disappeared instantly, replaced by an interest in her eyes.

Between the two of them.....

No, under the watchful eyes of the three of them!

With a hint of smugness in her eyes, Xie Siying didn't hesitate at all, and stuffed the ginger slice into her mouth with the sauce.

The next second, a violent coughing sound came.

"Cough cough cough, it's spicy, so spicy!!"

What followed was Wang Liyue's hearty laughter, a sign that her scheme had succeeded: "Hehe, crab, are you still going to try and take it from me now?"

As she spoke, she leisurely added a piece of meat, dipped it in the pot a few times, and waited until it was almost done before coating it with sauce. She then calmly put it in her mouth, nodding and saying, "Really good!"

Xie Siying didn't say anything, but instead picked up the coconut milk next to her and gulped down a big mouthful before she felt a little better.

"Good for you!"

Wang Liyue was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this, then nodded, with a hint of matter-of-fact: "Isn't that obvious? After all, I am the young lady of the Wang's Hotel!"

Xie Siying glanced at her: "A rich young lady? Judging from your eating habits, I think you should be the one who's rich and powerful!"

Wang Liyue rolled her eyes at her: "So what if I want to~"

Xie Siying: "......"

Ye Yusheng noticed that his girlfriend, who had been enjoying the show, suddenly became lost in thought, and he could faintly hear her saying something like, "I ate so much, I'm not going to gain weight again, am I?"

Suddenly she felt a gentle pinch on her waist. Looking up, she saw that it was indeed Ye Yusheng.

She glared at him, annoyed. "That's enough!"

Ye Yusheng seemed not to hear him, and gently squeezed it again: "Indeed, it's plump and feels really nice~"

Kato Megumi: “…”

However, this made her feel much better.

Seeing the commotion, Wang Liyue and Xie Siyi immediately stopped their confrontation and silently began to watch the drama unfold.

When they heard Yoruichi's chubby words, their eyes widened and they stared at Kato Megumi without blinking.

However, to their disappointment—

Kato Megumi didn't react much.

But, this is not right!

Isn't being fat a taboo for girls?

After saying such things, shouldn't there be bloodshed as a result?

Why is it so calm?

Forget it, forget it.

When they came to their senses, they looked up and met Ye Yusheng and Kato Megumi's eyes, which were completely devoid of any emotion.

stare!

Wang Liyue and Xie Siying were startled and instinctively lowered their heads. Wait a minute, we didn't do anything wrong!

Why should you feel guilty?!

Thinking about it, they immediately straightened up, casually picked up a piece, and dipped it into the boiling pot for a few seconds.

Ye Yusheng and Kato Megumi exchanged a glance but didn't delve into it further.

only......

"Hey, you guys are going too far! This is meat!"

"Excessive? Didn't you also steal the meat we put out?!"

"Ahem, stop fooling around, it's embarrassing!"

"Embarrassing? Is anyone here?!"

"Opportunity! Watch my invincible whirlwind clamp down!"

Upon hearing this, both Ye Yusheng, Kato Megumi, and Xie Siying nearly dropped their chopsticks, their expressions becoming somewhat subtle.

What a terrible name! Isn't it embarrassing?!
