Chapter 255: I Want To Eat Soft Bun Every Day (1)
Translator: StarveCleric Editor: Milkbiscuit
When Lin Jiage passed by Lu Benlai, the latter spoke with a slightly dissatisfied voice, “Boss, your wish is a little too casual!”
Casual? Compared to your intangible ‘live carefree and unrestrained’, mine is the most practical of all!
Lin Jiage couldn’t even be bothered to glance at Lu Benlai, and he simply walked right past him.
Just as he was about to pass by Xia Shangzhou, the latter caught Lu Benlai’s words and remarked, “Are all wealthy people that willful?”
Willful? If being willful would let me eat Soft Bun everyday, I’d be as headstrong as I could get!
Ignoring Xia Shangzhou as well, Lin Jiage continued walking forward. Just as he was about to walk past Shi Yao, he turned to glance at her.
Shi Yao noticed that the other three had already expressed their opinion, so she spoke up too, “I love crab roe buns!”
In contrast to his silent treatment towards the others, Lin Jiage elegantly replied, “Mm. Got it.”
Ah… It’s not like my words were just for you. Why are you telling me that you got it?
Shi Yao shot a perplexed look at Lin Jiage.
Lin Jiage didn’t respond. He pulled open the door to the KTV room and walked over to the front counter.
After paying the bill, the perceptive Xia Shangzhou and Lu Benlai paired up and left.
After Lin Jiayi and Shi Yao left the room, they also paired up and headed over to the bathroom. They hadn’t returned yet.
Lin Jiage stood at the entrance of the karaoke store, allowing the chilly night breeze to freshen him up. He remembered the four different reactions he received after he’d said his wish and thought: What do those three know? Their buns are ordinary and common, sold and eaten everywhere. On the other hand, his bun was the one-of-a-kind, peerless Soft Bun!
When he said he wanted to eat buns every day, he was referring to eating Soft Bun every day…
Thinking up to this point, Lin Jiage couldn’t help but scorn the others—with the exception of Shi Yao—disdainfully and derisively.
Just that, his disdain and derisiveness only held up for three seconds before his thoughts drifted off.
Eating Soft Bun… What do I have to do to eat Soft Bun every day, with emphasis on the word ‘every day’?
This thought wandered around his mind for three whole minutes before it suddenly dawned on him what he’d been thinking about the entire time. In an instant, it was as if someone had sealed his acupoints; he froze on the spot.
Am I insane? I actually made that kind of wish… And it would have been fine if it was just about eating buns, but why was I thinking about eating Soft Bun… and every day at that…
A burning sensation instantly consumed the roots of Lin Jiage’s ears, and even his cheeks felt a little hot.
Madness, madness! I must have gone completely mad!
…
“Lin Jiage?”
As Shi Yao and Lin Jiayi walked out of the karaoke store, Lin Jiayi noticed that Lin Jiage was standing by the entrance and called out his name.
Lin Jiage turned around, and soon after catching sight of the two ladies behind him, he quickly averted his gaze with a reddened face. Then, feigning a composed expression, he replied with an “Mm” before asking Lin Jiayi, “You drove here?”
“I came over from a dinner with a client. I left the car for Mom,” Lin Jiayi replied.
“Great, you can drive Grandpa’s car home.” As he said those words, Lin Jiage tossed the car keys to Lin Jiayi.
Lin Jiayi caught the keys and shook it, wanting to ask, “Do you want me to send you all back to school?” But thinking again, she suddenly remembered that they were close to G University, so she swallowed her words and said, “I’ll be heading off first then. Take care.”
