Chapter 551: Chapter 357 Traveling Frog_2

Lin Haitang: "..."

"You didn’t expect this, did you? My little cotton-padded jacket has long been bought by me!"

"Then you go back first, when it’s ready I’ll have Xiao Yu call you."

"No way!"

"Why not?"

"Sigh! Lawyer Lin, you don’t know, these last two days Master Yan’s appetite has greatly increased, hardly leaving anything for me after ten minutes at the dinner table."

"I had no choice but to come early and queue up, otherwise I’d go hungry again tonight.

Plus, I can help out with some chores, hehe!"

Seeing Meng Lang advancing step by step, Lin Haitang’s face turned red, and she immediately turned around to call for reinforcements.

"Weiwei! I’m back!"

However... she did not receive any response at all.

"Ah, how unfortunate, it seems that Master Yan hasn’t returned either..."

"You... you stay away from me!"

Watching Lin Haitang’s wary face, Meng Lang immediately felt helpless as he dropped his teasing demeanor.

"I’m saying, Lawyer Lin, you don’t plan on avoiding me for a lifetime, do you?"

Anyway, the longer I can hide, the better!

Sensing the intention in Lin Haitang’s eyes, Meng Lang sighed.

"Is it really necessary? We are already at this stage of our relationship..."

"You... you stop talking nonsense, what kind of relationship could we have?" Lin Haitang’s gaze flickered.

"Hey hey hey! Are you just going to turn your back on this and not take responsibility?"

"What responsibility should I take when nothing happened that night! No evidence, don’t talk nonsense, I’ll sue you for defamation!"

Meng Lang was baffled, can lawyers also tell such blatant lies?

Where is the gate to your sense of justice?

Everyone sees that she’s forcing me...

"Hmph!" Meng Lang crossed his arms and sneered.

"Do you really think that denying it will help?

If you keep avoiding me like this, then I have no choice but to go public tonight, in front of everyone!"

"What do you want to do?" Lin Haitang asked cautiously.

"Of course, I’ll publicly announce everything that happened that day!

Um... but that’s a bit not suitable for children, so, I’ll go talk to Master Yan in private."

Lin Haitang: "..."

"With Master Yan’s resolute character, if she knows that we have mutual feelings for each other but you refuse to accept this relationship because of consideration for her feelings...

Do you think she might make the same choice and step aside on her own initiative?

Um... maybe by tomorrow she’ll find an excuse to travel across the country, like seeking Dark Energy masters to exchange Martial Arts or to attain the ultimate level of Converted Energy... Do you believe it?"

"You... who has mutual feelings for you? I will explain everything clearly to Weiwei!

I have no feelings for you, that night... it was just an accident!

No! There wasn’t any accident at all!" Lin Haitang continued to deny vehemently.

"Do you think she’ll believe that?"

"I am a proponent of not marrying, Weiwei is very clear about this!"

"Are you sure?"

"I understand Weiwei!"

Meng Lang looked at Lin Haitang, and she met his gaze without yielding.

"Um... okay then, I’ll call right now..."

Meng Lang immediately took out his phone and started to dial the number.

Lin Haitang: "..."

"Doo~doo~" The phone was connecting.

Lin Haitang’s mouth twitched, as she refrained from taking action.

[Hello? What’s up?] Yan Weiwei’s voice came through the phone.

"Oh, Master Yan, it’s like this, I have something I’d like to confess to you..."

"Snap!"

Finally, Lin Haitang couldn’t hold back anymore, she quickly snatched the phone from Meng Lang’s hand and hung up, then looked at him with a flushed face, somewhat frantically.

"Enough! What on earth do you want?"

Of course, she was well aware.

Yan Weiwei is no fool, as long as she learned about what happened that night, and with Meng Lang repeating his detailed psychological analysis of that day...

Given Yan Weiwei’s understanding of her, there was a 99% chance she would not believe her side of the story.

If things went that way, even if she walked away now, with Yan Weiwei’s character, she wouldn’t get together with Meng Lang.

She also would never accept a love that was given out of pity.

She would essentially be doing harm with good intentions, directly sabotaging the potential between Weiwei and Meng Lang...

"That’s better!"

Meng Lang’s face showed conceit, his expression reminiscent of a villain coercing a maiden.

"As for what I want... hehe..."

"You... don’t mess around!" Lin Haitang backed away two steps, arms crossed over her chest.

"What are you thinking? If I wanted to mess around, would I have waited until now?"

Lin Haitang immediately blushed.

Indeed, that night... was quite outrageous...

Am I not charming enough? How can this be tolerated?

That shouldn’t be the case...

As I was lost in wild thoughts, I heard Meng Lang speak.

"My request is very simple. From now on, you can’t intentionally avoid me, and... I’d like to have fried rice with egg tonight."

"Ah..." Haitang was directly stunned.

"That’s it?"

"Or what? Were you expecting me to make some other unreasonable demand?"

"Of course not!" Haitang said with a flushed face, giving him a glare, but she was relieved inside.

She thought for a moment, then said helplessly.

"I can stop avoiding you, but you must not tell Weiwei about what happened that day!"

Hehe! Too late!

I didn’t say anything, but you can’t help that she’s a master of Dark Energy...

"Deal!"

Meng Lang reached out his hand.

Haitang gave him a look, then turned and walked into the kitchen, tying on an apron to start cooking.

Meng Lang didn’t mind; he leaned happily against the doorway, watching Haitang, dressed in her OL attire, skillfully toss the pan.

Hmm! Truly someone who’s as adept in the parlor as she is in the kitchen, an ideal type...

It’s just sticking to a semi-sugar doctrine when it comes to love! Sure, the road is twisty, but there’s a certain joy to it...

Meng Lang watched Haitang with a smile.

If she knew he had made a deal over a promise that was completely unnecessary, would she be furious enough to cut off his food supply for half a year?

This just goes to show the power of informational asymmetries...

Yes! I must reward the brothers well...

"Haitang, remember to add a chicken leg!"

Haitang: "..."

...

"Haitang... why does he get a chicken leg?"

Weiwei eyed Meng Lang across from her, who was enjoying his fried chicken leg, with an aggrieved expression.

"What can I do? The fridge is almost empty. Heaven knows I just bought so much food the day before yesterday, how it all got consumed so quickly! I rummaged through and only found one chicken leg..."

Haitang looked helpless.

Weiwei felt somewhat guilty.

Anyway, it was just to keep Meng Lang from eating anything tasty; whatever Xiao Yu cooked, she ate, and it ended up like this...

But the point isn’t really about consumption, is it?

The point is...

Why, when there’s only one left, does it have to go to him...

Even if not given to me, it should go to Xiao Yu, right? How does it end up being his turn!

Haitang’s gaze shifted evasively.

Xiao Yu silently shoveled food onto her plate, quietly enjoying the show.

"Ah, who told me to arrive early? Otherwise, I’d give it to you?" Meng Lang smiled, offering the chicken leg to her.

"Ew~ Who wants it, just take it away!"

Weiwei looked disgusted.

"Well! That’s also good, Master Yan, you seem to have put on some weight recently; eating less might be beneficial."

"You..."

With frustration, she shoveled the last few bites of her meal and huffily went off to watch TV on the sofa.

But having only watched for a short while, that annoying voice came from the other side again.

"Ah, Lawyer Lin, you must be tired. I’ll wash the dishes."

"No, no, I’ll wipe down the table!"

"I’ll take out the trash!"

Weiwei: "..."

Is this guy doing it on purpose?

Just a few days ago he was sneaky about it. What, now that he knows I’m aware, he’s blatantly flaunting it?

Haitang’s attitude is also weird.

Her expression seems helpless, but her body seems quite honest? Even going so far as to proactively add a chicken leg?

If she stayed any longer, she felt her wattage would only increase...

Through clenched teeth, she decided she couldn’t take it anymore!

While everyone was around, she slapped the table and declared.

"I’ve decided, I’m going to travel all over the country, seeking masters of Dark Energy to spar with in Martial Arts, and ascend to the ultimate realm of transforming energy!"

Xiao Yu, who was about to go inside to do homework, was stunned.

Meng Lang, about to throw out the trash, was also stunned.

Haitang was even more stunned.

She looked at Meng Lang in panic.

You broke your promise!

Meng Lang looked aggrieved. How was I supposed to know this person would have a brainwave, with thoughts that sync across timespace...

Get stimulated and just go traveling?

Are you a travel frog or what?!
