Chapter 018 018

“That’s right.” Yan Jin nodded without hesitation. “I was afraid that the white sugar cakes they originally sold wouldn’t be sweet enough for you, so I specially asked them to add another two pounds of sugar inside.”

After saying that, Yan Jin saw Yu Shu standing there stunned and thought he was feeling embarrassed, so she specially softened her tone, “They were bought for you to eat, and we’re from the same hometown. You don’t need to feel burdened.”

No, he still felt very burdened. He would rather Yan Jin not be so considerate of him!

Yu Shu swallowed his saliva. After tasting the first bite, he felt like he had seen hell.

Even now, Yu Shu felt that his throat was still filled with a suffocating and cloying sweetness.

Yu Shu spoke with difficulty, “These… are all for me?”

“Don’t worry, I won’t fight with you for them,” Yan Jin smiled kindly, “Because I don’t like eating sweet things.”

This food box of white sugar cakes weighed a full three pounds.

And in these three pounds of cakes, another two pounds of white sugar were mixed in.

Yu Shu closed his eyes, not having the courage to face reality.

Yu Shu would rather Yan Jin not think of him so much, he would rather Yan Jin fight with him over this one mouthful of food.

But Yu Shu still heard Yan Jin’s confused voice in his ears, “Why aren’t you continuing to eat? Do you not like it?”

Who dares to continue eating? Who has the courage to like it!

Yu Shu was just thinking of tactfully refusing Yan Jin’s bribe, but when he opened his eyes, he saw Yan Jin’s eyes clearly showing puzzlement as she looked at him.

Yan Jin was good-looking, and her pair of eyes were even more outstanding. Especially now that she was intently staring at Yu Shu, with her eyes shimmering, it gave Yu Shu the illusion that he was Yan Jin’s entire world.

Yu Shu’s heart softened, and the words he originally wanted to refuse with were swallowed back down when they reached the tip of his tongue.

“No, I like it very much.” Yu Shu’s slender fingers covered his lips as he forced out a natural smile. “I just didn’t expect you to care about me so much, I was a bit overwhelmed for a moment.”

[Sigh, Yu Shu is too nice. Even like this, he didn’t explain to Yan Jin that eating two pounds of white sugar in one go would cause problems.] [Our baby is just so well-behaved, investing in him won’t be a loss!] [Although it’s a bit ky, I really want to give Yu Shu’s fans a reality check. Just now, the way Yu Shu looked at Yan Jin wasn’t like how you look at an ordinary friend, it was like how a man looks at a woman. Inexplicably softening towards another person is the beginning of love, be careful he’ll ruin his image.]

…

[Yu Shu is a man, Yan Jin is a woman. It’s very normal for him to look at Yan Jin with a man’s gaze, right?] [Yu Shu didn’t come from a talent show, propped up by fans like an idol. He’s a proper singer, even if he falls in love, it won’t ruin his image.] [If an in-group idol falls in love, they’ll be struck by lightning. Yu Shu doesn’t count as an idol, he doesn’t sell a boyfriend image, so falling in love doesn’t count as ruining his image.]

“I just don’t like dealing with strangers, it doesn’t mean I don’t care about friends.” Yan Jin didn’t expect that just by showing a tiny bit of goodwill, Yu Shu would be so touched. Her heart suddenly felt a bit uncomfortable.

Was her attitude towards Yu Shu these past two days really that bad?

How come Yu Shu looked like he was about to cry just from eating a white sugar cake?

But to be honest, good-looking people even look good when eating.

Yu Shu wasn’t like those men who ate with big mouthfuls, spilling food crumbs everywhere and smacking their lips while eating. His eating manner was very refined, chewing the food in small bites without making any smacking sounds. His cheeks were puffed out, like a squirrel happily munching on a pinecone.

Originally, Yan Jin didn’t like eating sweet things, but seeing Yu Shu eating so deliciously, she also felt a bit of an appetite. “Is it really that delicious? Then let me try a piece too.”

After saying that, Yan Jin reached out to take a white sugar cake, but Yu Shu quickly pressed down on her wrist.

Yan Jin: “I’ll just eat one piece.”

Yu Shu was afraid that Yan Jin would discover the truth about the white sugar cakes, so he resolutely refused, “Not even one piece. I’m the type of person who likes to eat alone and doesn’t like to share.”

“I was the one who bought these.” Yan Jin gloomily glanced at the still full food box of white sugar cakes. “There’s still so many, I’ll just eat one piece, I won’t fight with you for the rest.”

Yu Shu almost couldn’t resist Yan Jin’s slightly dejected gaze, but thinking of the taste of those white sugar cakes, he still held firm. “If you want to eat them, I’ll buy some for you later. Not this time.”

[Host Yu Shu, Host Yan Jin’s endurance isn’t as weak as you think.]
