Chapter 507: 506

"If you don’t understand, just pretend you don’t. Remember to treat Li Ling better in the future, and don’t let her down, understand?"

Xiao Yi stopped joking with Fatty Tang, his face adopting a slightly serious expression.

Could the boss really know about what happened yesterday?

Hearing Xiao Yi’s words, Fatty Tang’s expression froze for a moment, and his mind was suddenly shaken. But how could he know? Did Li Ling tell Xiao Yi? That’s impossible, right? How could Li Ling possibly tell Xiao Yi about something like that?

Even he found it hard to speak of.

Lost in thought, he even forgot to respond to Xiao Yi’s words.

"Stop guessing wildly; it’s written all over your face."

Xiao Yi, seeing Fatty Tang standing there dumbfounded, couldn’t help but reach out and knock on his forehead.

"There’s writing on my face?"

Fatty Tang’s face showed a trace of confusion.

"Yes, a whole series of words are carved on your face!"

Xiao Yi nodded emphatically, and after saying this, he couldn’t hold back a burst of hearty laughter.

"...!"

Fatty Tang was initially puzzled by what Xiao Yi said, but as soon as he saw Xiao Yi laughing heartily, he instantly realized he was being teased and a line of black lines appeared on his forehead.

But in his heart, he was still somewhat unclear whether Xiao Yi really knew about what happened yesterday with Li Ling, and if he did know, how he found out.

"Let’s go, stop daydreaming. Remember what I just said, if you let Li Ling down in the future, I won’t forgive you."

After teasing Fatty Tang for a bit and seeing his awkward expression, Xiao Yi stopped teasing him, patted him on the shoulder with a smile, then turned and walked towards the classroom.

"Boss, don’t worry, I definitely won’t let Li Ling down. If I do, may lightning strike me!"

Fatty Tang didn’t care anymore whether Xiao Yi knew or how he had found out about his business. He quickly caught up to Xiao Yi and spoke earnestly.

Seeing the grave expression on Fatty Tang’s face, Xiao Yi’s face showed a hint of satisfaction. Patting his shoulder again, he said nothing more. In fact, knowing Fatty Tang and recalling how Fatty Tang had struggled with his parents for Li Ling’s sake recently, he also believed that Fatty Tang would not let Li Ling down. It was just that he couldn’t help but remind him.

Returning to the classroom and sitting down, Xiao Yi was surprised to find that Fatty Tang seemed like a different person, not immediately lying down to sleep as usual, but seriously opening a book to read.

His heart gave a slight start. He had wanted to tease him, but upon seeing the serious look on his face, he immediately dismissed the idea.

It seems true, after all, that women are the catalysts that mature men! Fatty Tang had finally started to become mature...

Looking at Fatty Tang engrossed in his book, seemingly oblivious to the surrounding din of the classroom, Xiao Yi’s face showed a smile of satisfaction. He too closed his eyes and began to rest lightly.

After learning Beichen Feng’s secret technique, Xiao Yi had come to place more and more emphasis on this skill of resting with closed eyes. He no longer saw it as just a way to kill time and calm his mind when bored but took it seriously as another essential skill to learn.

............

Was this porridge really made by that young doctor Xiao Yi?

At Azure Waterfront, Liu Jingling came downstairs and entered the dining room. Seeing the exquisite, appetizing pot of porridge on the table, her face froze for a moment, and disbelief flashed in her eyes.

She could hardly believe that this delicious-looking porridge, which had already stimulated her appetite just by looking at it, had been made by that young man in his twenties.

After a moment, she snapped out of it and, with a tentative mindset, gently scooped up a small spoonful of the porridge and placed it in her mouth.

"Wow, it’s delicious!"

As soon as the porridge touched her lips, Liu Jingling felt as if struck by electricity. She was stunned and involuntarily swallowed the spoonful of porridge.

Although the porridge had cooled slightly, its fragrance seemed to have diffused throughout the pot. As soon as it reached her mouth, it melted away, permeating her every taste bud.

She scooped another spoonful unconsciously and put it in her mouth.

Once again, the aroma filled her mouth, captivating her so completely that she swallowed another spoonful.

Spoonful after spoonful, Liu Jingling found herself unable to stop, having consumed nearly half the pot before stopping reluctantly from feeling slightly full.

"Oh my god, how can porridge be so delicious? How did he do it? Did he really make it?"

Putting down the spoon, Liu Jingling looked at the remaining porridge in the pot and once again showed a skeptical and incredulous expression. This was, without a doubt, the most delicious porridge she had ever tasted. As a girl who hadn’t been spoiled with luxury, and quite the opposite had been well-versed in household chores, making porridge was nothing new to her.

But she had never imagined porridge could be this aromatic and tasty!

Soon, she shook her head, knowing her doubts were utterly unnecessary. The answer was right there before her. (To be continued. If you like this work, you’re welcome to vote for it at qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
