Ch.159 Everyone is acting, except for me (4)
Isn’t this normal clay pot chicken? Lu Ting who was used to eating all sorts of precious and expensive foods the world could offer sincerely felt that this chicken tasted just normal.
He looked at everyone’s exaggerated expressions and listened their praises, and even began to wonder if Li Murou had paid them off.
Li Murou was standing respectfully in front of the table. Lu Ting looked up at her and the emotions in his eyes were complicated.
He had no idea what this girl thought about him, but he had also refused her very straightforwardly many times. Still, she kept on trying. Lu Ting was beginning to wonder if this girl had used some means to buy off Li Xing, Lin Yueqi, his daughter, and Jiang Mucheng.
The reason Li Murou was doing this was to garner his favor, right? But she probably didn’t realize that their overacting would make him suspicious instead.
Lu Ting was very curious at what Li Murou had done. How on earth was she able to convince Lin Yueqi and the chubby girl?
When he thought of this, Lu Ting took a sip of water and his frown grew deeper and deeper. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this Li Murou girl was terrifying and sinister.
Li Murou met Lu Ting’s complicated gaze, and in an instant, all the displeasure in her heart flew away.
Even though Lu Ting did not say anything, she could sense his obsession with food from his eyes.
Li murou had added alcohol to the food. After they finished the pot, they would be drunk out of their minds while she will be able to take the opportunity to do a variety of things.
She knew very well what tactics Lin Yueqi used back then, and she also planned to do just the same. She will get them drunk, then have Li Xing sleep together with Lin Yueqi.
After all, which man could tolerate seeing his best friend sleep with his girlfriend?
Half an hour later, Tuantuan fell asleep on the tatami mat while rubbing her tummy. On the other hand, Jiang Mucheng couldn’t withstand the alcohol and slept soundly with her head on the table.
Meanwhile, the alcohol had gone to Li Xing’s mind and he began throwing a drunken fit in Swallow Canteen. He even climbed on top of the counter and sang “Single Love Song”.
The waiters wanted to pull him down, but they were all kicked away as he continued letting his sorrows out in his singing. On his high, he didn’t forget to point at Lin Yueqi and Lu Ting. “All my buddies down there, get high!”
Li Murou subconsciously rubbed her temples. This mess was simply mind-splitting. She continued looking at Lu Ting’s direction. That man didn’t seem to be affected at all.
While she was pondering about it, Li Xing jumped down from the bar and kicked Li Murou down. After that, he didn’t forget to point at her and say, “You demon spirit! Let my grandfather go!”
Li Murou fell towards the dining table and just happened to land right next to Lin Yueqi.
The red-faced Lin Yueqi burped and giggled, reaching out to grab her hair and slammed her to the ground. Together with Li Xing, she shouted, “Demon spirit! Let my master go!”
Li Murou was stunned by the sudden beating. With the help of a waiter, she managed to escape from Lin Yueqi’s clutches.
The waiter immediately said, “Boss, I’ll go call security!”
“What were you doing just now?!” Li Murou rubbed her bruised forehead. Her face looked extremely terrible. With a heavy heart, she turned to Lu Ting again, but the man still looked unresponsive.
He was looking indifferently at Li Xing and Lin Yueqi in their drunken stupor.
When four security guards came in, Lu Ting slammed his glass of water onto the table. “Enough! How much longer are you all going to keep the act up for?!”
At the man’s yell, the two stopped instantly.
Lin Yueqi and Li Xing both looked at Lu Ting and burped.
After a moment of silence, Lin Yueqi suddenly became teary-eyed, looking very pitiful. She clamored over to Lu Ting and hugged the man’s waist, constantly nuzzling his chest.
She wailed startlingly, “Papa, I miss you so much!”
Lu Ting, “……”
Compliantly, he wrapped his arm around Lin Yueqi, stroking the back of the girl’s head to comfort her while raising his eyes to Li Murou.
Eventually, Lu Ting couldn’t stand it any longer and frowned. “Miss Li, you should know that trying to scheme will only backfire on yourself.”
The author has something to say: Lu Ting, “Everyone is acting, except for me. :)”
