I Became the Little Demon in Leading Role's Family
Chapter 119 - 119 119 Your Intelligence Needs ImprovementChapter 119: Chapter 119 Your Intelligence Needs Improvement Chapter 119: Chapter 119 Your Intelligence Needs Improvement “Just like a sulky little child who didn’t get any attention.”
Moh Li didn’t know what was wrong with him, but he had waited on the mountain for a long time and hadn’t seen Bai Zhi, so he came down. When he saw her, he felt she was a bit heartless?
In fact, they had no relationship, were not familiar, and had made no prior arrangements. His fleeting anger was really uncalled for.
“Can you make ‘One Chicken Three Ways’?”
Moh Li quickly regained his composure, and his gaze towards Bai Zhi normalized quite a bit, very cold, devoid of any emotion.
“Yes.”
Bai Zhi could, of course. The reason she could open a restaurant was that she knew how to cook. Of course, those high-end dishes were beyond her, but most of the common home cooking, she could manage.
The reason she could was not only for survival but also for love. Cooking is exhausting, and being a female chef is even harder. Finding a mentor is difficult; they feel women can’t endure and lack the strength; also, there’s the tradition of teaching men, not women.
So, every step was not easy for Bai Zhi, finally making a success and mimicking someone’s style by getting an earring, she came here.
A flash of surprise crossed Moh Li’s eyes; he had merely asked casually without expecting an affirmative answer, but unexpectedly, she indeed knew how.
“I’ll pay you to go somewhere and cook for me, how about that?”
Bai Zhi looked at Moh Li; though his gaze didn’t alter, his voice carried an excitement, indicating this was very important to him.
Come to think of it, every time he saw her, he asked her to buy food, and so much of it. Did he really eat all that himself?
“Where will it be done? What about the price? If I go, it won’t be cheap, you know.”
Bai Zhi didn’t refuse. Instead, she looked at him indifferently. She wanted to see whether Moh Li would agree.
But, since he was with the male lead, if it’s cooking for the male lead, then forget it; she wouldn’t earn that money.
“Cook in the mountains; I can get you whatever you need, and we can negotiate the price, but there’s one condition. You must not tell anyone. Remember, anyone!”
Moh Li’s gaze sharpened, and the way he looked at Bai Zhi became somewhat intriguing.
Serious and stern but with a hint of threat?
Quite interesting.
“Oh? Including that person with you? But aren’t you two close? Why can’t he know about what you’re doing?”
Bai Zhi’s lips slightly curled, this just got much more interesting.
How does that saying go again?
The enemy of my enemy is my friend. If indeed that was the case, she wouldn’t mind assisting this Moh Li.
Though the original owner didn’t really like the male lead either—in Bai Zhi’s view, it wasn’t love. It was because she felt indebted for saving the male lead, who liked the group pet, making the original owner feel discontented; she thought it was love, but it wasn’t.
As for Bai Zhi, the male lead was an enemy, the last straw that broke the original owner, the last straw of starlight in the original owner’s eyes.
Bai Zhi didn’t want to meddle in the male lead’s and group pet’s life; after all, they were heading for the peak of their life. She was just a poor soul, first needing to protect herself. As for the future, to each their own.
In your naive days. Talking about revenge was a joke; supported by power, if you really acted, the male lead could end your life, that’s the harsh reality. So, you must reach a certain height, at the very least not easily squished like an ant.
Sometimes, we must admit our own weaknesses—not out of cowardice but to recognize oneself and find the best direction, striving step by step.
Bai Zhi never felt that she could amount to something; her goal was to live well, protect her grandfather, and lead a good life.
What about the male lead and the female lead reaching the pinnacle of life? She didn’t envy it, nor did she want to get involved. She just wanted to be with her grandfather, and if someday she could trip them up, she would be overjoyed.
So now, the equally mysterious Moh Li was obviously plotting behind the male lead’s back, at least planning something, and naturally, she was willing to lend a hand.
But, in Moh Li’s view, she was just another fool smitten by Ouyang’s looks. Never mind, he was mistaken in his assumptions.
“Forget it, pretend I never said anything. I won’t ask for your help anymore. You better act like you didn’t hear anything. Otherwise, I saw a rather amusing scene the other day—a girl wielding a mountain pear, viciously hitting someone.”
Moh Li laughed, a sweet kind of laugh, but his gaze was somewhat chilling to the bone, emotionless, his eyes’ focus indecipherable.
This guy, was he threatening her?
“What then?” Sorry, but she really wasn’t someone to scare easily. Bai Zhi walked towards Moh Li, looking at him with the same cold demeanor.
“You see, you surely don’t want your image in Ouyang’s heart to be shattered, right? So, let’s leave it at that.”
Moh Li didn’t expect that Bai Zhi actually looked completely unconcerned; but then, anyone infatuated with Ouyang was a fool.
“What rubbish, say that again?”
Bai Zhi instantly exploded; what did this guy mean by that?
Bai Zhi charged at Moh Li intending to grab him but he dodged swiftly, somewhat awkwardly.
“Have you gone mad?” Moh Li couldn’t hold back anymore, glaring at Bai Zhi. Had this woman lost her mind? Bursting out like she had gone crazy.
So in love with Ouyang?
What a fool.
“If you mention again that I have anything to do with that idiot, believe it or not, I’ll hit you? Me, fancy him? He has no looks, no responsibility, blind and narrow-minded, especially self-loving, don’t you know? If I have anything to do with them, it’s only one thing.”
Bai Zhi’s lips curled coldly, a flash of sharpness.
“That’s being enemies. Last time he stole my dish and just left, truly despicable. I thought, if you were opposing him, I’d help. If not, then well, goodbye,
Also, I’m not afraid you’ll tell them, if I do it, I’m not scared of being discovered, understand?”
Bai Zhi looked at Moh Li with sympathy, thinking that he thought she had feelings for Ouyang, such intelligence, didn’t seem to be much help either.
“What look is that?” Sympathy, or scorn? Moh Li felt Bai Zhi was mocking him.
“You keep asking him, am I overthinking?”
“I suddenly feel that your intelligence needs improvement.”
Bai Zhi touched her chin, delivering this concluding remark.
Moh Li’s lips twitched; why on earth had he talked to her about all this?
“One thousand yuan, same time tomorrow, tell me what you need to prepare; we meet here, how about that?”
Moh Li clenched his teeth, now he had no other option left, relying on himself definitely was no good, treating a dead horse as if it were a live doctor, failing that, he wouldn’t give up.
