Chapter 123

Ding Bo squinted at Yi Feng and suddenly said, “Brother Yi, forgive my bluntness, but I feel... you two aren’t really dating, are you?”

He sensed it. Just Yi Feng’s blabbering and Gu Muxi’s completely bewildered expression.

With such a deeply engraved love story, where would such expressions come from?

Thus, Ding Bo judged that Gu Muxi and Yi Feng were not a couple; it was possible that Gu Muxi had found him to act and fool himself.

Yes, very likely!

“How could that be? Mr. Ding, that must be your misconception!”

“We are a couple deeply in love, right, dear?” Yi Feng held her hand, raised it, and said earnestly.

Gu Muxi was exasperated, all thanks to his nonsense, and now, they were suspected, weren’t they?

But now she was too far in to back out, so she could only mimic Yi Feng’s actions and gaze deeply into his eyes.

“Yes, dear, we are to be together forever.”

Saying this, Gu Muxi’s cheeks reddened, and her body broke out in goosebumps.

Ding Bo, seeing their act, although hard to imagine, but they were holding hands too tightly, weren’t they?

His goddess was being held by someone else’s hand!

Pain, it was truly painful!

He was about to continue voicing his suspicions when the waitress came over with a cart.

The cart was piled with dishes and various cuisines.

“Sir, madam, your ordered dishes are ready. Let me serve them for you,” the waitress smiled.

“Okay, thank you. Mr. Ding, let’s eat breakfast first. After talking so much, I’m hungry,” Yi Feng said.

“Uh, okay.” Ding Bo nodded and glanced at the dishes on the cart.

So many dishes, there must be some for other tables too.

But what happened next completely dumbfounded him!

The waitress moved incredibly fast, serving dish after dish, quickly clearing half of the cart.

“Wait, wait, hold on!”

“You must have served the wrong dishes! This red juice sea cucumber, and the abalone, those shouldn’t be mine! I only ordered Set Meal 1!” Ding Bo hurriedly called out.

The waitress looked at him puzzledly, “It was this gentleman and lady who ordered these.”

“Right, right, it was me who ordered them. Mr. Ding, I’ve never eaten abalone or sea cucumber before, so I wanted to try them. It’s okay, right?” Gu Muxi looked at him with her big, watery eyes, showing a pitiful expression.

Ding Bo’s heart melted instantly, “Cough cough, it’s okay, I was just asking. If you want to eat, then eat, it’s fine, this little amount of money is nothing.”

“I think that a man should have some financial strength.”

“Brother Yi, this is where you’re wrong. As a boyfriend, you haven’t even let Gu Muxi eat abalone or sea cucumber?”

He immediately compared himself with Yi Feng.

He had money, although not a lot, but living a slightly better life was completely no problem.

“Ah, my apologies, my apologies. Here, I’ll toast you with tea instead of wine, to Mr. Ding!”

“Mr. Ding is generous, magnanimous, and has a broad perspective, incomparable to me!”

“Here, a toast to you!” Yi Feng raised his cup, earnestly.

Ding Bo tugged at the corner of his mouth, raised his cup in response, and downed it, the bitter tea hitting his throat!

The table was too small, and two carts of dishes couldn’t fit, so the male waiter left one cart beside, with half of the dishes still not served.

Ding Bo glanced at it, feeling even more heartache.

How much will the bill be later?

But, at this point, he could only brace himself, needing to show off his wealth.

“Come on, Gu Muxi, eat more, you look a bit thin!” Ding Bo called out sweetly, trying different ways to say Gu Muxi was thin. Girls, after all, like hearing they are thin, it’s a compliment.

“Yes, dear, look, Mr. Ding said you’ve gotten thinner, come on, I’ll feed you a shrimp dumpling.” Yi Feng picked up a shrimp dumpling and brought it to Gu Muxi’s mouth.

Gu Muxi, very cooperatively, opened her mouth and ate it, smiling sweetly, “Mmm! It’s really tasty~ Thank you, dear!”

“Mmm~”

Gu Muxi sent him an air kiss.

“Mmm~” Yi Feng returned one.

The two were sweet and full of dog food.

But Ding Bo, seeing this, his face grew uglier, as if a knife was stabbing his heart!

Damn it!

Spending my money and feeding me dog food, is there no justice?!

No justice!

Damn it!

You, you’re bullying me too much!

Ding Bo wanted to cry but had no tears, only able to turn his inner sorrow into appetite, fiercely devouring the char siu bao.

He saw a piece of abalone left on a plate, just about to reach for it with his chopsticks.

Suddenly, a pair of chopsticks, with the speed of lightning, snatched the last piece of abalone from the plate.

“Ah, Mr. Ding, did you want to eat it too? How about I let you have it?” Yi Feng said seriously.

Ding Bo put down his chopsticks, covered his face, and his voice trembled, “You, you eat it...”

“Ah, Mr. Ding, what’s wrong? Is there something in your eye?”

“Yeah, I think some sand got in just now.”
