Chapter 285: Sharing The Barbecue
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Ji Jun read this message back and forth a few times. He felt that something was wrong, but he did not know what was wrong. The only thing he was sure of was that Yu Han was not angry. Hence, he felt relieved and replied, “Goodnight.”
He loosened his muscles and came out of the room, wanting to pour a glass of water. He saw Lin Zi, who had sent away the deliveryman and returned happily with supper. The fragrance of barbecued food items wafted to his nose.
His nose twitched as he watched Lin Zi place several boxes of barbecue of various sizes on the table. There were vegetables, mushrooms, meatballs, and some bean products.
He paused for a moment. ‘’It’s already 12 o’clock. Do you still want to eat so much?”
Lin Zi patted his belly. “1 have no choice. I ate dinner too early tonight, so I’m very hungry now.”
Ji Jun held the glass of water and took a slow sip. “I clearly remember that you ate a lot tonight.” In his impression, Lin Zi seemed to have eaten two bowls of rice and a pile of meat and vegetables.
“That’s different. That’s dinner. This is supper.” Lin Zi picked up a lamb skewer and stuffed it into his mouth. He chewed on it with a creak and his mouth was bulging. “Good kids like you who eat three meals regularly and don’t eat much carbs and oil won’t understand the joy of eating meat and drinking wine.”
…..
Ji Jun looked at the pile of barbecue food silently and suddenly said, “I remember that you had high cholesterol during your physical examination last time. There’s also moderate gout. The doctor recommends that you try your best to control your diet.”
At the mention of this, Lin Zi immediately felt that the mutton skewers in his mouth were no longer nice. Wasn’t this rubbing his nose in it?
Who among the young and middle-aged people nowadays did not have any problems? However, they still had to eat what they needed to eat. Otherwise, what was the point of working so hard?
What puzzled Lin Zi even more was that a self-centered person like Ji Jun usually wouldn’t care if he ate supper or not. However, he was so talkative tonight. It was obvious that something was wrong.
Lin Zi put down the barbecue food item in his hands. “If you have something to say, just say it. You’re beating around the bush and making me feel afraid.”
Ji Jun glanced at him. “How can you say that?”
Lin Zi squeezed out a smile. “Isn’t this not in line with your straightforward style?” After all, Ji Jun had always said whatever he wanted.
Ji Jun pursed his lips and did not comment on the adjective “straightforward”. He said calmly, “You ate Yu Han’s fried chicken last time. Aren’t you going to give her a few skewers of barbecue this time?”
Lin Zi came to a realization and looked at Ji Jun speechlessly. “If you want to see Yu Han, just say it. Why are you beating around the bush?”
He lowered his head to look at the barbecue food items in front of him. In the end, he cleared out a box and placed a few skewers of vegetables, some soybean products, and some meat inside. Then, he gave them to Ji Jun. “Here you go. Go and date your lover.”
As for him, he could only drink and eat skewers alone.
However, Ji Jun did not reach out to take it. “Send her a message.”
Lin Zi pointed at himself. “Me?”
Ji Jun nodded. “You were the one who ate her food last time. Isn’t it normal for you to send it now?”
“Alright, alright, alright. I’ll send her the news.” Lin Zi rolled his eyes and muttered, “You make it sound like I’m the only one who ate that fried chicken. You clearly ate it yourself, and you even got Yu Han to feed you.”
“You ate the most?”
Lin Zi retorted, “I transferred the money to Yu Han for the price of the fried chicken I ate that day. Hence, no matter how much I eat, I’m still eating my own food. I don’t owe you guys anything. Instead, you guys owe me…”
“I’ll treat you to the barbecue tonight.” The rich Ji Jun interrupted Lin Zi’s nagging.
Lin Zi immediately beamed with joy. “I’ll send a message to Little Yu now.”
At the same time, he sighed inwardly. Not only did he want to manage Ji Jun’s career and take care of Ji Jun’s life, but he also had to worry about his relationship. As expected, managers’ work was inhumane.
However, although he sighed, he was happy again when he thought of the three-month bonus he was about to receive.
However, he soon could not smile anymore because Yu Han rejected his invitation.
[Thank you, Brother Lin, but I have a morning scene tomorrow morning and have to get up early, so I won’t eat tonight.]
Lin Zi showed the message to Ji Jun. “Yu Han doesn’t want to eat. It’s not that I don’t want to share it with her, but if you want to see her, you should strike while the iron is hot after playing the game.. Arrange for a time to meet her…”
