Chapter 199: Chapter 199 Ignored This Matter
"Bambi, can’t the Little Deer God take us for a flight?" This team member must have been drunk, and after saying this, he thought about it but didn’t realize there was anything wrong in speaking to his boss.
Instead, he thought of another inconsistency, saying, "Come to think of it, the names Bambi and Miss Su are quite fated, one is called Lu, the other Bambi..."
Su Lu: "..."
Bo Jingshen: "..."
If it had not been for the various incidents that had happened before, which made the relationship between the two so awkward, mentioning the game ID would have been a sweet topic, but now, the two of them were maintaining a precarious peace.
Bringing this up now seemed to only add to the helplessness.
The sober Ying Xi quickly pushed his teammate, "Drink your drink, sleep your sleep, don’t spout nonsense."
Seeing this, Ying Xi seemed to know some things about Bo Jingshen and Su Lu. Who else could know through him?
Jiang Li, who can’t keep his mouth shut.
But that being said, Jiang Li really had no defenses and no reservations around Ying Xi, daring to say anything.
"Stop talking nonsense! Whoever is fated with him can go! Anyway, my sister definitely isn’t!" Su Yi said abruptly, his usually slurred speech surprisingly clear.
It seemed that he had just sobered up from the haze of alcohol and realized his crucial responsibility to protect Su Lu, so, swaying, he tried to stand up, reaching for Su Lu’s hand, "Sis, let’s go, I’ll take you home, let’s go."
Su Lu felt like laughing, her lips curling into a smile.
Remembering how this guy usually called her by her full name with a cold face, only calling her ’sister’ when his consciousness was dulled by alcohol.
"It’s okay, let’s sit for a while, I haven’t eaten yet." Su Lu pressed on his shoulder, not letting him rise, "Let’s go after I’ve eaten."
After hearing this, Su Yi pondered slowly, seemed to see some sense in it, and slowly nodded, "Okay, okay then you eat first."
Bo Jingshen ignored the drunken company at the table, his long fingers picking up a somewhat greasy laminated menu, and handed it to Su Lu.
Su Lu looked at the menu.
It was different in a restaurant run by her fellow countrymen—the menu was bilingual... or rather, it was entirely in Chinese, with each dish’s name printed boldly in Chinese with a very small line of English underneath, looking quite shabby, almost as if they did not intend to do business with foreigners.
This made ordering quite easy, and so far, Su Lu hadn’t felt much.
However, when the ordered dishes arrived, these seafood dishes seemed to suddenly trip some sort of switch in Su Lu.
Su Lu’s pupils dilated sharply, her lips suddenly tightened, she bit the tender flesh inside her lips secretly, hoping the pain would sober her up a bit, so she could suppress the sudden nausea that was welling up.
Su Lu silently adjusted her breathing, hoping that deep breaths could keep the nausea at bay.
However, it was in vain. Before she was certain she could no longer hold back, Su Lu stood up.
"How so?" Bo Jingshen turned his gaze towards her, just as he placed a set of dishes and utensils in front of her.
"No, it’s nothing. I... need to go to the restroom," Su Lu said, "I just remembered that I hadn’t washed my hands after leaving the hospital."
Bo Jingshen nodded and watched her hurriedly walk away, thinking to himself that both had used hand sanitizer at the pharmacy counter before they left.
However, Bo Jingshen didn’t think too much about it.
Rushing to the restroom, Su Lu tried hard to press her lips together and endure, feeling as though stars were bursting in her eyes, and it seemed like the next second, filth would burst forth from her nose.
Su Lu covered her mouth and dashed into the restroom, unable to remember any sounds she might have heard along the way, her mind only filled with a buzzing noise.
Entering the restroom, Su Lu dashed into a stall, not even bothering to close the door behind her, and she immediately started violently vomiting into the toilet. She didn’t know how long she vomited—it wasn’t very long, but it wasn’t short either. In any case, Su Lu had initially felt there was nothing left in her stomach to throw up, and now she truly felt empty.
She heard footsteps behind her and, realizing she hadn’t closed the stall door, thought that the current vomiting scene was somewhat unpleasant.
"Sorry..." Su Lu said softly.
Then, she heard a familiar voice.
"Are you all right?"
Su Lu blinked, initially thinking she was hallucinating, but it didn’t seem to be the case.
Just as she tried to push herself up to turn around and see, a pair of gentle hands supported her shoulders, "Miss Su, is it really you? I saw your silhouette from behind and thought I was seeing things, but what a coincidence to encounter you here!"
The voice was very familiar, and when Su Lu turned, she saw a face with a gentle smile.
"Aunt Zhao?"
"Yes."
"How are you... here?"
"Isn’t this such a coincidence? This store is invested in by a distant relative... my younger cousin. He knew I was coming and insisted I come and try some dishes," Zhao Ying explained.
After listening, Su Lu nodded, "Yes, it really is... such a coincidence. I was thinking of arranging a meeting with you, but it turns out encountering you by chance is better than picking a date."
Zhao Ying gently patted her back, "Indeed, it is a coincidence, but Miss Su... you’re quite daring. Many pregnant women can’t handle seafood after getting pregnant because the sea smell makes them nauseous—you, on the other hand, came to a seafood barbecue stall..."
Zhao Ying’s voice carried a tinge of helplessness, but her actions were gentle, patting Su Lu’s back and handing her water and tissues.
"Thank you," Su Lu said after rinsing her mouth, "I didn’t know I couldn’t handle seafood. There were already seafood dishes ordered by friends on the table, and I didn’t feel anything. But when my own order came, I just couldn’t take it. It’s so tough."
"There’s nothing easy about being a woman..." Zhao Ying’s voice paused before she softly continued, "It might be hereditary. Perhaps your mother couldn’t handle seafood when she was pregnant either. Sometimes it’s mysterious... When I was pregnant with my daughter, I could eat anything but seafood."
Hearing this, Su Lu smiled faintly, a smile that didn’t reach her eyes, and shook her head, "I wouldn’t know. I’ve never met my mother, so naturally, I don’t know if it’s hereditary. Let’s not talk about heredity. However, it’s really a shame to come here and not be able to eat seafood—it feels like a loss..."
Zhao Ying was silent for a few seconds, then a gentle smile returned to her face as she winked and suggested, "Try the abalone. When I was pregnant with my daughter, I couldn’t eat any seafood, but abalone was fine."
