Chapter 1873 Can’t Eat More
If she continued to stay in Jindo City, she would not be able to lose weight. That was because Jiang Lei was too cunning. Every time she said she wanted to lose weight, he always had a way to get food from somewhere, so she threw her weight-loss motivation to the back of her mind.
If one were to ask Lu Xiaoxiao why Jiang Lei did that, she would say he was evil.
He must have despised her for staying in Jindo City and constantly finding trouble with him, so he deliberately made her fat. How could a fat woman become an actress? Would she not return home dejectedly if she could not become an actress? If she went home, would he not be happier in Jindo City?
That was why Lu Xiaoxiao believed she should go home to hide from Jiang Lei for a while. She would return to Jindo City after losing some weight to continue fighting Jiang Lei. When she returned, she was determined not to fall into Jiang Lei’s trap again.
Jiang Yao and Lu Xiaoxiao purposefully ate fewer calories for dinner. Jiang Yao restrained her appet.i.te and only ate half a bowl of rice and half a bowl of soup.
She did not feel full and sat there looking at the dishes on the table with a face full of envy. She gritted her teeth and put down the bowl and spoon when she thought about being overweight and losing weight.
Lu Xingzhi, who was used to Jiang Yao’s three bowls of rice per meal, noticed Jiang Yao had put down the bowl and spoon and glanced at her. “You’re not eating more?”
“We can’t eat more! Sister-in-law, we have to lose weight!” Lu Xiaoxiao was afraid that Jiang Yao could not control herself, so she immediately reminded her.
“If you eat so little, you’ll be hungry in the middle of the night.”
Lu Xingzhi did not care. He got up and got another bowl of rice for her. Before Lu Xiaoxiao could say anything, he also added another bowl for her. “Didn’t you say that you liked Mom’s dishes? Even if you want to lose weight, you still have to eat. If you don’t have enough to eat, and if you’re hungry in the middle of the night, you’ll want something for supper. This method of losing weight is useless.”
Then, when he saw their hesitance, he said, “Don’t waste food.”
Lu Xingzhi was right about one thing. Mrs. Lu’s cooking skills were excellent. It was not easy for the two of them, who liked Mrs. Lu’s cooking, to restrain themselves from putting down their bowls and spoons.
The two of them looked at each other helplessly when Lu Xingzhi got more rice for them.
“Brother is right.”
Lu Xiaoxiao took the lead in picking up her spoon again and looked at Jiang Yao. “Sister-in-law, let’s eat. We can’t waste food. We don’t need to do this now. We’ll start tomorrow!”
Before Jiang Yao could respond, a piece of braised pork was placed in front of her. Lu Xingzhi was already helping Jiang Yao with her favorite dishes.
Mrs. Lu was happy to see that. “This is how the younger generation lives now. When we were young, it was a blessing to be fat. It meant that you were from a rich family. Besides, both of you are still so pretty even if you’ve gained weight. All our children are beautiful. Look at Yaoyao and Xiaoxiao. Don’t they look good recently? Their skin is fair too.” Lu Xingzhi glanced at Jiang Yao with a smile in his eyes. Then, he whispered, “Just like lychee.”
Lu Xingzhi’s voice was very soft, and only Jiang Yao, who was next to him, could hear him.
Unsurprisingly, Jiang Yao rolled her eyes at Lu Xingzhi. She sat there with her spoon, her ears slightly red.
That guy really dared to say anything!
They had taken a day-long flight to three cities. After eating, Jiang Yao shared the gifts she bought on their trip and went upstairs with Lu Xingzhi.
