Chapter 77: Playing House?
Lu Yao, however, seemed to have received a great favor. He trotted upstairs and said, “Wait for me for a moment. I’ll go get the game console and the cartridge.”

He looked so anxious, as if he was afraid that Wen Si would go back on his word.

Wen Si felt helpless and amused. He sat on the sofa in the living room and told him from a distance: “Run slowly and be careful. I’m not in a hurry to play.”

Lu Yao agreed verbally, but his body continued to do as it pleased.

Relying on his long legs, he jumped over several steps at a time and disappeared in a few seconds like a gust of wind.

Seeing this, Wen Si sighed in his heart: What a sin!
He was just a young boy, why did he like her when there were so many other people he could like?

It made her feel like she was in a dilemma whether to pay attention to him or ignore him every day.

If she continues to stay in the love cottage doing nothing like this, she will definitely develop some health problems!
No, I have to find something to do quickly. It would be best if I could work day and night, go out early and come back late, and only meet the male guests a few times a month!

With this thought in mind, Wen Si took out his cell phone and looked through his schedule.

Then I was surprised to find that she had a new schedule in a few days!

The new schedule was also taken over from Wen Yu, which is a talent show called “Chasing Light! Youth”.

Because when Wen Yu was first discussing this variety show, she was neither very good at singing nor dancing, so she ended up getting the job of initiator.

Mainly responsible for livening up the atmosphere, reading out the rules of the competition, announcing the rankings, etc., there is no technical content.

So it doesn’t matter whether we change people or not.

For Wen Si now, as long as she doesn’t have to stay in the love house every day to deal with men, let alone being an initiator, even if she is allowed to be a trainee and directly participate in the talent show, she would be happy!
She was very satisfied with this new schedule which came at the right time.

Just as I was about to open the data file and do some preparation in advance, I heard Lu Yao’s footsteps coming down the stairs.

Not only did he take the game console and the cassette, he also handed a shoulder and neck massager to Wen Si and said, “If you really feel uncomfortable, you can use this to massage it and it will make you feel better.”

“Thank you.” Wen Si took the massager and put it around his neck politely.

Lu Yao took the game console and walked to the huge LED screen in the living room. While connecting the game console, he protested quietly: “Don’t be so polite to me.”

Wen Si smiled and said nothing.

The two of them were still playing Overcooked.

Last time we had limited time in the hotel, so the two of us didn’t play many levels in total, so this time we will continue where we left off.

With the guidance of Lu Yao, the e-sports god, Wen Si’s gaming experience is as good as ever.

But happy times are always short. By the time Wen Si reacted, Lu Yao had already led her through one level after another, and time had unknowingly reached eleven o’clock in the morning.

“Take a break? It’s time for lunch soon.” Wen Si put down the game controller and stretched.

Lu Yao nodded. Just when he was about to ask her what she planned to eat for lunch and whether she wanted to go out with him, he saw Song Zhiyu and Ye Sangsang coming back from outside carrying large and small bags.

Seeing Wen Si and Lu Yao lying comfortably on the sofa, Ye Sangsang started to act coquettishly from a distance: “Sister Si Si, Brother Xiao Yao, come and help me carry these things, they are so heavy!”

Just as Wen Si was about to get up, Lu Yao took the lead and said, “I’ll go, you take a good rest.”

Then he trotted over and took the bags from Ye Sangsang’s hands.

“Are you out shopping?” Wen Si followed closely behind Lu Yao and helped Song Zhiyu share some of the things.

Ye Sangsang was so tired that she was out of breath. She held Lu Yao’s arm and gasped for a long time before she was able to speak a complete sentence: “Yes, didn’t Song Zhiyu think that he had been in the cabin for so long but never had the opportunity to show his superb cooking skills in front of everyone?” “Now that the program crew finally allows us to go out freely, he took me to the nearby vegetable market early in the morning and bought a lot of vegetables and meat, saying that he wanted to show off his cooking skills in front of you.”

“What do you mean I never had the chance to show off my cooking skills in front of everyone? It’s as if I’m so vain and love to show off. I just feel sorry for everyone who has been eating coarse food for a while, and I want to improve everyone’s life!”

Song Zhiyu was so tired that his face turned red, but he still stiffened his neck to refute.

Ye Sangsang: “Ah, yes, yes, yes, yes! Chef Song is so thoughtful, kind, and great!”

No matter if you really love them or just want to show off in front of them, the meal must be cooked for them.

A gentleman is judged by deeds, not by intention. Wen Si and Lu Yao felt embarrassed to take advantage of his labor for free, so they offered to help him.

So, when Jiang Zhihuai came back with an airline box, what he saw was Wen Si and Lu Yao sitting cross-legged on the carpet in the living room, watching TV and picking vegetables.

Lu Yao is taken care of by his mother at home. After joining the e-sports club, there is a dedicated chef. He has rarely stepped into the kitchen since he was a child and knows nothing about choosing vegetables.

Wen Si wasn’t much better.

The two of them came together, choosing and discussing:
“Is this what Song Zhiyu just taught me? Why do I feel like this vegetable is getting balder the more I pick it?”

“That should be right? For some vegetables, you only eat the stems and not the leaves.”

“Emm, never mind. If the stems can’t be eaten, we can just pick up all the leaves.”

With the lively background sound of the TV, this scene looked so heartwarming that it hurt Jiang Zhihuai’s eyes.

Jiang Zhihuai, whose house was robbed when he came back from a trip, said: “???”

When did your relationship become so good?
He walked into the living room quietly and sneered behind Wen Si’s back: “You two are in a good mood today, are you playing house?”

Wen Si was frightened and shuddered: “…”

God damn playing house.

She turned around in anger, wanting to ask, “Are you a ghost? You walk without making any sound!” But she noticed the airline box in his hand.

“what is this?”

“This is the kitten I just adopted.” Jiang Zhihuai said, handing the airline box forward.

The cage door was facing Wen Si’s face, allowing her to easily see what was going on inside.

There was a palm-sized tabby cat curled up inside.

White boots, white gloves, white scarf, and a pink nose that looks a little white, as if she had just eaten a piece of cream cake.

Such distinctive features made Wen Si recognize it at a glance. This was the little tabby cat that took the initiative to climb on him and squeeze his milk at the Meow Meow Mia cat cafe yesterday!
“Isn’t this…” Because the little raccoon didn’t have a name yet, Wen Si stopped talking halfway and asked with joy, “You adopted it?”

“Ah.”

“So you were nowhere to be seen this early in the morning. Did you go to the cat cafe?”

“Ah.”
