My Wife is My Life! Chapter 259
“What do you want to eat?”
There were two sets of menus and ladies had the first priority.
Ji Qingqing glanced at the menu and ordered two dishes and Zhang Lala ordered two dishes too. The lady boss wrote it down. Then she faced the kitchen and hollered out the order. Smiling, she said, “Please sit here and wait for a bit. Your items will arrive shortly.”
Saying that, she went to pour tea and shift the stools for the staff.
A man carrying a huge sack of rice entered the restaurant. The lady boss saw him and quickly hurried over to take the bag of rice from his shoulders and carry it.
Ji Qingqing then noticed that the man’s two sleeves were empty and he didn’t have any arms.
“I already told you so many times. Don’t do this kind of work. If we are short on rice or oil, Da Zhou will go buy it.” The lady boss nagged at him as she patted the dust off his body.
The man’s eyes were all on the lady boss. He straightforwardly smiled. “I’m free and have nothing to do either.”
The lady boss glared at him and pulled him to sit down. She gave him the plate of melon seed which she had peeled. A couple of melon seeds were roughly stuffed into his mouth. “Here. They’re peeled and I'm too lazy to eat them. Since you’re free, go ahead and finish them.”
The man laughed. The lady boss stuffed one in and he ate one. It was like the person before his eyes was his whole world and Ji Qingqing and the other people in the shop totally could not be seen.
Ji Qingqing nodded her head. “I overate.”
They passed by a pharmacy at the roadside and Lu Lixing stopped the car. After five minutes, he came out with a bag and passed it to Ji Qingqing.
Indigestion tablets.
And they were also chewable.
Ji Qingqing popped out two pieces and chewed it. A while passed and only then did she feel better.
“I told you to eat less, but you didn’t listen.”
“That’s because the food was too delicious. Those were the best dishes I’ve eaten ever since trying Aunt Pei’s food.”
“Later at night when Chen Shuyi invites us for dinner, don’t push yourself.”
“Ok.”
Lu Lixing gripped the steering wheel. After a moment of silence, he asked, “You said today you were only willing to marry someone you love?”
Ji Qingqing paused. She didn’t answer his question directly and asked back, “What’s the matter with that?”
Lu Lixing raised his eyebrows. “Nothing.”
