Chapter 129: Chapter 0129 Gluttonous Feats

After the waiter left, Lin Yingying personally poured Long Fei a cup of tea.

Her attentive behavior made Long Fei wonder what kind of scheme she was planning for him.

"Director Lin, just speak your mind! We’re all acquaintances here, no need for such formalities."

Long Fei couldn’t help but ask.

Lin Yingying gave him a look and said, "Who’s an acquaintance with you? After tonight, you’re still you, I’m still me, we’ll still be strangers."

Long Fei took a sip of tea and stared at her, "Could it be that you really don’t care about that night’s event?"

He already knew that Lin Yingying was the person he was engaged to as a child, and he needed to clear this matter up even more now.

Lin Yingying deliberately avoided the topic, her face flushed as she chided, "Can we not talk about that night, okay? I didn’t come to see you tonight to discuss that!"

"But..."

Long Fei wanted to discuss this matter, for once it was clear, he could start dating Wang Xiaoya.

He had barely started speaking when Lin Yingying stood up, "If you mention it again, I’m leaving!"

Long Fei swallowed his words and said with a heavy tone, "Alright, let’s not talk about it."

Lin Yingying then sat down again, took a sip of tea, and glared at him indignantly for quite a while.

Looking at her, Long Fei felt as though he had stolen something from her.

Feeling uneasy, he asked, "Director Lin, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Lin Yingying’s gaze was sharp as she asked him, "Have you been with Shanshan the past few days?"

"Seems like it!"

Long Fei nodded.

"What has she been telling you?"

Lin Yingying frowned slightly.

Long Fei was startled as he looked at her, thinking she misunderstood that he had some sort of relationship with Lin Shanshan.

He quickly explained, "Nothing much, we just talked about starting a business together. Other than that, we’ve been completely innocent!"

"Only that?"

Lin Yingying looked at him suspiciously.

Long Fei said, "Just that, I swear!"

Lin Yingying observed him, and he didn’t seem to be lying.

Today, she had asked Su Qi to check on Lin Shanshan’s whereabouts, and indeed, Lin Shanshan had been with Long Fei these past two days.

Otherwise, she was at the school for military training and hadn’t gone far from town.

However, Lin Shanshan told her today that she knew about the engagement.

Seeing Lin Shanshan so confident in her speech, Lin Yingying felt she might know something.

She suspected that this matter could be related to Long Fei.

After all, the only outsider Lin Shanshan met was Long Fei.

She began to probe, "Shanshan hasn’t mentioned anything about me in the past few days, has she?"

"About you?"

Long Fei suddenly remembered the matter of their childhood engagement, and it dawned on him that this was what Lin Yingying wanted to ask about.

He cleared his throat and feigned ignorance, "Yeah, she said you’re a penny-pincher, unwilling to invest in her business. Moreover, she said you’re always domineering and bullying her."

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Lin Yingying slammed the table in irritation and demanded from Long Fei, "Do you believe that?"

Long Fei chuckled awkwardly and said in a weak voice, "I kind of believe it."

Lin Yingying grumbled, "Do you even have a brain? Do you believe everything people tell you? Where do I look domineering? Am I not always gentle?"

Her shouting caught the attention of the other customers, who turned around to look.

Caught in an awkward situation, Long Fei flashed the onlookers a smile and whispered to Lin Yingying, "Can we keep our voices down?"

Lin Yingying took a breath, calmed herself after a moment, and said solemnly, "She didn’t talk to you about my marriage, did she?"

Long Fei pretended to be surprised, "My goodness, are you married?"

Lin Yingying blushed and hurriedly said, "Are you trying to kill me? I was speaking softly. Why are you being so loud?"

"I’m just excited!"

Long Fei smirked inwardly, teasing her on purpose, "If you get married, then won’t I become ’the other woman’?"

Lin Yingying ground her teeth and muttered resentfully, "What does it have to do with you? Don’t get ahead of yourself, okay?"

"We have no relationship now, but we will in the future!"

Long Fei chuckled, mumbling to himself as he sized her up.

Lin Yingying’s eyes, bright as morning stars, shimmered like clear springs.

Her face was adorned with two dimples, trademarks of the Lin Family, that would delicately turn up even when she was annoyed.

She was usually serious and unsmiling, but the occasional flash of her smile truly was a charm that could bring a hundred flowers into full bloom.

This wife had looks and talent; apart from a bit of a temper, she was perfect.

Unfortunately, he already had Wang Xiaoya, so he could only apologize to his grandpa.

Feeling his gaze, Lin Yingying became uneasy and asked in a low voice, "Can you take your eyes off me, please?"

Long Fei snapped back to reality, gave a cough, and quickly bowed his head.

Soon, the waiter began to bring out the dishes.

The huge table, one and a half meters in diameter, was completely covered with food.

Meat dishes, vegetarian dishes, sweet, spicy, soupy, deep-fried—a messy mix of everything.

Long Fei, picking up his chopsticks, exclaimed with excitement, "Director Lin, do you have any other concerns? If not, I’m going to start eating!"

Lin Yingying deliberately teased him, folding her arms and saying, "I came here to treat you to a meal, but that doesn’t mean you can waste food as you please. We agreed in advance that if you don’t finish this table of dishes, even if only one dish is left, you’ll have to pick up the tab."

The dishes on this table really weren’t expensive.

Long Fei, who didn’t know much about food, had ordered simple home-cooked dishes. A bowl of abalone and some bird’s nest would top the cost of this whole table of food.

Lin Yingying wasn’t worried about the money; she purely found Long Fei irritating.

For some reason, she just got angry whenever she saw him.

Long Fei was pleasantly surprised, "Does this mean that, as long as I finish it all, you’re paying?"

"Yes!"

Lin Yingying gave him an unamused look.

Long Fei immediately waved over a waiter.

Thinking he was going to send dishes back, Lin Yingying glared at him, ready to intervene.

When the waiter came over, Long Fei quickly ordered, "Bring me five more bowls of rice, and would you consider getting bigger bowls in this place?"

The waiter asked in alarm, "Sir, are you sure?"

This table of food was enough to feed more than ten people.

"Hurry up, I’m very sure!"

Long Fei waved his hand and started on a bowl of rice.

Lin Yingying felt like spitting up blood, thinking this guy was showing off way too much.

She didn’t believe he could finish the entire table of dishes.

While Long Fei ate, she didn’t touch a bite, just watched him.

But then the food on the table started disappearing dish by dish, bowl by bowl, until even the soup was drunk up by Long Fei.

Long Fei finally understood why it was priced so expensively.

The flavors were beyond what any small restaurant could achieve; perfectly balanced in color, aroma, and taste, the meal was truly indulgent.

Take the braised pork, for example; it was a meticulously sourced mix of fatty and lean cuts, oozing delicious pork fat with every bite.

The burst of flavor was enough to make taste buds rejoice.

In less than half an hour, the more than thirty dishes on the table had all been polished off by Long Fei.

He asked for five more bowls of rice during the meal, consuming a total of eleven bowls.

Lin Yingying was almost scared to death as she stared blankly at Long Fei, thinking he must have been a buffalo in his past life.

Otherwise, how could he eat so much?
