Chapter 457 – Cleaning Leftovers
Book… a room? Stop provoking me with those dangerous words. Did you want to use a safer place to offer your body since last time we were almost caught in the act by Auntie Ren?
I really do meet the requirements of booking a hotel room with Wu Sheng’s ID.
Booking a hotel room isn’t really a big deal since I did it before with five other members of the basketball team.
Don’t misunderstand, we weren’t doing gay s.h.i.t. We were watching a live broadcast of an NBA game and thought the more the merrier.
But if I go book a room with Xiao Qin with this ID, then we’re definitely not going to watch an NBA game. Rather, the NBA players would be the ones eager to look into our room.
No. No, my father didn’t raise a son who would book a hotel room with a female childhood friend at 14 years old.
Wu Sheng already said I can use the ID to do whatever makes me happy. It might be happy booking a room, but don’t celebrate too soon because Auntie Ren would kill me if she finds out.
So for the sake of my life, I severely criticized Xiao Qin. At the same time, I put Wu Sheng’s ID away in my wallet, to prevent it from getting lost and being used by bad guys.
“But… Ye Lin cla.s.smate now has an ID. If I don’t book a room with you as your girlfriend, what happens if you go book a room with someone else.”
I laughed and said: “Where’s the rule that states you have to book a room with someone because you have an ID? China has nuclear weapons, but they still declared the no first use policy. Also, other than you, which other brainless girl is willing to book a room with me?”
Xiao Qin pouted: “The cla.s.s leader might.”
“There’s only a 0.000001% chance of that happening. The cla.s.s leader values her body unlike someone like you who has no integrity and would take off her clothes in a heartbeat.”
“Anyway… Ye Lin cla.s.smate has to promise me if you have an urge to open the room, you have to contact me first! If you go to the cla.s.s leader, I, I’ll die in front of you.”
“Fine fine.” I appeased Xiao Qin, “Alright, then I’ll be like the Chinese government and promise I won’t be the first one to invite the cla.s.s leader to book a room together. Is that okay?”
“No, that’s not enough.” Xiao Qin persisted, “You can only book a room together with me with your ID.”
Xiao Qin slowly became more forceful and confident ever since I introduced her as my girlfriend to He Ling and Wu Sheng.
I can’t be too softhearted and let her take control of the relationship. I don’t care if I stay as Xiao Qin’s boyfriend or end up as her sibling, but I can’t lose my dignity as a man.
Thus I pretended to be mad and berated her:
“Why are you being so annoying. You should be focused on studying at your age. Aren’t you embarra.s.sed always mentioning booking a room together? I have the right to book a room with whoever I want to watch NBA games…”
I wasn’t sure if she was scared by me, but Xiao Qin stared straight at me and didn’t say anything.
That’s better. If you want to be my girlfriend, you have to at least respect me. If I listened to her for everything, then it would be the same as the past when I was dominated by the Little Tyrant.
So I continued to preach to her delightedly:
“A girl shouldn’t keep talking about booking a room together. Even if that day comes, I’ll be the first one to mention it.”
Xiao Qin still didn’t say anything, but her shoulders began to tremble.
Huh, is she scared of me? I never thought I would be so imposing in front of her, it makes me feel successful. All the men who are afraid of their wives should use a carving of me as an emblem to resist against female tyranny.
Xiao Qin suddenly turned her body as if she wanted to hide from something.
Then I suddenly flew forward like an artillery sh.e.l.l and brushed past Xiao Qin.
“Ouch!” I fell hard on the ground. When I turned around to look I realized Auntie Ren was behind. I was sent flying because Auntie Ren kicked me on the back.
Auntie Ren looked furious, “What are you saying to my daughter? You’re actually saying you want to book a room at such a young age, do you want to die? Do you even have an ID to book a room?”
I actually did have an ID, but Auntie Ren would get even more upset, so I didn’t say anything.
Auntie Ren grabbed Xiao Qin’s hand and was going to take her away.
“I spent a lot of effort to bring you to the set, but he still followed you. Come with me, you’re going to sit on the a.s.sistant seat and watch me work.”
Xiao Qin couldn’t resist her mom, she could only look at me who was pretending to be dead and lying on the ground and say: “Then see you tomorrow at school”, then she left with her mother with her head lowered.
I only got up off the floor five minutes later. I also scared away a thief who thought I had fainted from heatstroke and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to steal my wallet. I glared at him and he ran and crashed into the arms of a security guard of the film city. He inevitably received a hit with a baton and was taken away for questioning.
I touched my burning back and was glad Auntie Ren held back. I would have already kicked the bucket if she used all her strength.
I was planning on having lunch with Xiao Qin, so now I felt a bit lonely.
Although I had an access card for the set of the Magic Cauldron and could eat at the cafeteria, I would get scolded again if I b.u.mped into Auntie Ren, so I should find another place to eat.
I suddenly remembered I could try to mooch some food from Ai Mi’s place. The French chef’s cooking can put you into a good mood for the rest of the day.
As I got closer to the RV, I noticed Peng TouSi had already come back along with Obama. The bodyguards were all holding lunch boxes while standing around Obama and joking around.
Obama was locked in a cage with the sign ‘In a diet, please do not feed.’ still hung around his neck. It seems it was so he wouldn’t go in and disturb Ai Mi who was currently eating in the RV.
In order for Obama to successfully lose weight, the bodyguards weren’t allowed to feed their lunch to Obama, and they also surrounded him while holding their lunch.
The plump Obama gloomily bit onto one of the bars on the cage. He tried to stick his face through the bars and had a look of protest.
As I walked over, it was like he saw a savior and he said:
“Since I shared my master’s underwear with you, you should save me from these earthlings.”
Of course, that was all my imagination, the actual wording he used was “Woof, woof woof, woof woof woof”.
I petted Obama’s head, told him to stop fantasizing and just watch the others eat.
It turns out I came at a bad time. Ai Mi only ate a bit for lunch and was taking a shower. It was a bit awkward because I came to mooch food, but the owner was already done eating.
It was good Peng TouSi was here since he knew I was here for food when he first saw me, so he asked the French chef to prepare lunch for me.
I saw there was still leftover food Ai Mi didn’t finish sitting on the table. It was cinnamon toast, French onion soup, Omelet Lorraine, and baked scallops. It was overly sumptuous, she had tasted every dish, but there was over 95% of the food left.
I was taught by my dad not to waste food, so I sat down at the table. I told Peng TouSi to not bother the chef and I was fine with Ai Mi’s leftovers.
Peng TouSi lived in the slums as a child, so he didn’t want to waste food either and he appreciated my choice.
“Lin, you’re someone who’s willing to think of others.”
He might have been complimenting me, but it sounded weird when he said said it. I don’t want to be considered a gentle person by a h.o.m.o! You should be satisfied with G.o.d and stop making plans to attack me.
I then loosened my belly and finished all of the cinnamon toast, French onion soup, Omelet Lorraine, and baked scallops.
I was a bit too full, but I don’t regret it even if I died from eating too much gourmet food.
In order to save the most resources, I didn’t even get a new pair of utensils. Ai Mi had just finished her shower, and she saw me licking off the remains of the omelette off the utensils when she came out.
Ai Mi instantly realized I was eating her sc.r.a.ps and even used her utensils.
She covered her mouth and snickered, “It makes sense your the lowest level manservant since you even finish your master’s sc.r.a.ps. Do you feel pleasure licking my used fork?”
Pleasure my a.s.s, I just didn’t want to waste any food. Look at the French chef who’s crying tears of joy when he saw how much I enjoyed his food.
“Did you leave the violent girl? I thought you guys would eat together.”
I was planning on eating lunch with Xiao Qin, but Auntie Ren was p.i.s.sed when she heard I wanted to ‘book a room with Xiao Qin’ and she’s not letting me go close to her.
It seems Ai Mi felt that since I didn’t eat with Xiao Qin and would rather come back to eat her leftovers, was a sign of loyalty and deserved a commendation.
“Manservant, seeing as how you’re so proactive with your behavior, I’ll let you off the hook for making me use watermelon frost.”
It’s clear your ulcer got better after you used the watermelon frost since your speech is much clearer. I can’t believe you treated watermelon frost as poison, hurry up and apologize to it!
Ai Mi said the shooting went really well today, so she didn’t have any work in the afternoon and was planning on heading back to the VIP building in Qing Zi Academy to sleep.
It was quite sad that a 12 year old girl only had half a day of rest a week, and sometimes she had to use that time to make up for missed cla.s.ses.
“Manservant, you should come back with me. Winnie also came to the VIP building this morning, so you can meet her if you come back with me.”
“Huh, did Winnie go to your place in the morning? Then why didn’t she come here to watch you act?”
“I wanted to invite her, but when she found our there was a single room bas.e.m.e.nt in the VIP building, she proposed to make her stand inside as a punishment. I had no idea what she was thinking…”
