Chapter 3907: A Perfect Match (99)
She went over and tapped him gently on the shoulder.
“Liang Yin!”
The actor, who had been lost in thought, looked up at her and smiled.
“Shishi.”
‘What are you doing sitting here on your own? Why didn’t you come tea picking with us this morning!’
“Oh, I was still asleep and didn’t know you were going to pick tea.”
“I see!”
Yun Shishi smiled and told him, “We bought teacakes.”
“Teacake?”
“Uh huh.”
…
Yun Shishi took out a teacake from the box, broke off a small piece, and handed it to him.
Hua Jin looked at a tea cake in his hand and asked curiously, “What’s this?”
Before she could say anything, Youyou started explaining, “It’s a teacake. Of course it’s edible.”
“Oh, really?”
“Smell it. It’s very fragrant. I had two and they are really crunchy and fragrant. They’re pretty good.”
“Uh huh.” The actor took a bite. Instantly, the flavor of the tea filled his mouth. It was crisp and aromatic. As soon as he bit into it, the tea leaves, which had been dried until they were brittle, broke. The tea leaves and tea stalks gave off a mesmerizing fragrance.
Except that… it wasn’t easy to chew, and even harder to swallow.
When Little Yichen saw this, he covered his mouth and burst out laughing.
Hua Jin was confused when he saw the boy laughing.
“What are you laughing at?” With the remains of the teacake in his mouth, he spoke with a slur.
“Hahahaha!” Yun Shishi couldn’t help laughing at that. Youyou grinned wickedly as well, as he stood by the side.
The grin was surprisingly identical to Gong Jie’s. There was something sinister about it.
Terrified, Hua Jin quickly spat out the remains of the teacake. “Is it poisonous?” he asked fearfully.
“Of course not!” Yun Shishi tried not to laugh. “This teacake isn’t for eating. Youyou tricked you.”
Little Yichen stifled a laugh that threatened to bring tears to his eyes. Highly amused, he said, “Ha-ha. These teacakes are actually for making tea.”
“…”
Liang Yin stood to the side and asked silently, “Don’t you know that teacakes are not for eating and for making tea?”
The corner of the actor’s mouth twitched. He picked up the glass of water beside him and gulped it down, spitting out the remaining dregs. A bitter aftertaste immediately developed in his mouth.
Apart from the fragrance, dried tea leaves are also inexplicably bitter.
Fortunately, although the tea leaves and stems had been crushed into the tea cake, it was difficult to swallow and he did not swallow much of it.
Why was this family so evil? Gong Jie, Mu Yazhe, even Youyou… Except for Yun Shishi and Little Yichen, the other three were the epitome of evil. Even if Little Yichen could play tricks sometimes, he was already a little angel in comparison to Youyou!
Liang Yin reached into her bag and took out a few paper-wrapped objects. Hua Jin took them from her and opened them. They were persimmon cakes.
“This is a persimmon cake. It’s absolutely edible.”
The actor took it doubtfully. Somehow, even though he knew it was persimmon, he still felt dubious. He took a bite until he was sure it was persimmon, then swallowed it with relief.
He hadn’t eaten much since he woke up, so he ate several persimmon cakes in one go. Liang Yin couldn’t help but whisper, “Can’t you eat less? What if you gain weight?”
The actor eyed her and asked, “Do you grow fat easily?”
