He looked slightly taken aback.

Meng Mian had her head down, her hair in a bun, her skin smooth and her whole body glowing white.

The red earphones, nestled on her fair and delicate ears, made her skin appear even more translucent and radiant.

Her eyelashes were extremely long, like small fans.

He fanned it once, then fanned it again.

Her fair face looked so delicate and soft, perhaps because it was so flawless.

Wearing a pale yellow chiffon shorts set, she looked even more youthful, fair-skinned, and slender.

Perhaps because she's currently looking at her phone quietly, she seems unusually well-behaved.

Ji Silin simply couldn't reconcile the person in front of him with the one who had stopped him earlier—an extremely pretentious and exaggerated person dressed in an overly mature manner, who was utterly unlikable.

But it really is the same person.

What caused her to change so drastically all of a sudden?

His temperament seems to have changed as well.

It's like there are two people.

However, their relationship was just a transaction, and they would break up after three months.

Ji Silin was too lazy to investigate what was going on.

Thinking about not recognizing the person, Ji Silin still felt a little embarrassed.

But considering that he had already apologized to Meng Mian and transferred money to her, Ji Silin felt no emotional fluctuations at all.

We ate in the hotel's largest private room.

Meng Mian and Ji Silin sat facing each other.

Ji Silin asked Meng Mian to order the food.

Meng Mianzhen ordered it.

Seeing how decisive Meng Mian was, without any hesitation, Ji Silin thought it was very good.

After Meng Mian finished ordering, Ji Silin ordered all the signature dishes that Meng Mian hadn't ordered yet.

Meng Mian didn't react much, just obediently drinking the freshly squeezed juice that was served.

This is the Ji family's hotel, so naturally, the food for this private room is prepared first.

Some have even already prepared them.

The dishes were served quickly.

The table was laden with dishes.

Meng Mian wanted to eat sweet and sour pork ribs the most, so she picked out two pieces of sweet and sour pork ribs and put them in her bowl.

But I didn't eat it right away.

Instead, they simply held their chopsticks and waited.

The ribs are too hot for her right now.

She has a high pain sensitivity; even temperatures that feel warm or slightly hot to a normal person are unbearable for her.

Otherwise, there will be intense pain in the mucous membranes of the mouth and esophagus.

So every time she eats or drinks, the food is only slightly warm at most.

Ji Silin across from her had already taken a bite of food, but when she looked up, she saw that Meng Mian had clearly put food in her bowl, but she wasn't eating it. Instead, she was staring at it with bright eyes, looking particularly well-behaved.

Kind of cute.

After slowly swallowing the food in his mouth, Ji Silin asked, "Why aren't you eating?"

"It's too hot, I'll wait until it cools down a bit before I eat it," Meng Mian replied softly.

Her almond-shaped eyes were still fixed on the two tempting-looking, incredibly delicious-looking ribs in her bowl.

Ji Silin thought it was because the ribs were fresh out of the pot and very hot.

"Then you can eat something else first."

Meng Mian shook her little head, insisting, "I want to save my stomach for what I want to eat most first."

If I've eaten something else and my stomach isn't so empty, then these ribs won't taste as good.

Ji Silin couldn't understand.

But we respect it.

He didn't say anything more.

For some inexplicable reason, I also picked up a piece of spare rib.

She took a small bite and checked the temperature, finding it just right for eating: "It's edible now, not too hot."

He didn't even realize he was testing the temperature for others.

"Really?" Meng Mian thought it wasn't hot anymore and took a bite without any precautions.

But as soon as she took a bite, the heat made her eyes immediately redden: "It's hot."

Her little face looked so wronged.

Ji Silin was taken aback.

The food he just picked up from the plate should be a little warmer than the food she had already picked up and put in the bowl.

How could his not be hot, but hers still be hot?

Judging from her strong reaction, it must be more than just a little hot; it must be very hot.

But looking at Meng Mian's red lips and white teeth, her pitiful expression, and her teary eyes...

Ji Silin found that he was actually having trouble saying anything harsh.

With a rare hint of helplessness, she said, "I don't know why yours is still hot. Mine isn't hot at all. I'm sorry, please don't cry."

"Huh?" Meng Mian had just recovered from the pain when she heard Ji Silin say this. She was stunned. "I didn't cry."

No?

Ji Silin's cold gaze fell on Meng Mian's eyes.

Look closely at Meng Mian's eyes.

Although Meng Mian's eyes were red, they weren't actually filled with tears.

Their eyes are just so clear and watery.

Her eyes just reddened, as if they were brimming with tears.

Ji Silin coughed lightly, feeling a little embarrassed.

Meng Mian was already explaining: "It's not your fault, you don't need to apologize. It's just that I can't eat hot food, not even a little bit hot."

Delicate and spoiled.

The last time I bumped into him, it was just a light bump, and he cried out in pain.

He thought she was crying.

Looking back now, I don't think I cried last time either.

Ji Silin stopped caring whether Meng Mian ate or not, and continued eating his own food.

Meng Mian didn't care.

After waiting a while, Meng Mian picked up the rib that had just burned her from the bowl.

Having been burned earlier, she didn't dare to bite directly with her mouth this time.

First, I gently touched the rib with my lips and felt that it was no longer hot.

She immediately smiled and took a bite.

It's so delicious.

Her eyes crinkled with satisfaction.

When Ji Silin saw this, he thought the other person was being spoiled.

But he still didn't say anything.

After finishing the ribs, Meng Mian picked up a piece of spicy chicken.

She can't eat too much spicy food either, as it will worsen her pain.

Meng Mian asked the waiter for a small bowl of water and rinsed the chicken pieces in the water for a long time before daring to put them in her mouth.

Then her eyes crinkled with satisfaction.

Ji Silin saw it again.

He remained silent.

But then Ji Silin noticed that Meng Mian also didn't eat anything too sour, anything too icy, or anything too hard.

After a long time, she was finally able to happily eat a bite of food again.

She even picked up some fish, but after picking at it for a long time, she still couldn't get rid of all the fish bones. So she gave up and her fair face was full of regret as she ate something else.

But not being able to eat the fish he wanted clearly made him less happy than before.

His eyes no longer bend.

Whose spoiled brat is this?!

Ji Silin was unusually agitated.

He picked up a piece of fish, carefully removed the bones, and then placed it in Mengmian's bowl.

My restlessness subsided considerably.

Meng Mian was burying her head in her mouth, eating vegetables.

He was still thinking about the fish.

She preferred fish to vegetables.

It would be great if fish didn't have bones.

But she won't eat fish with bones.

I've had a fishbone stuck in my throat before, and it was extremely painful.

Suddenly, a piece of fish meat, with all the bones removed, appeared in the bowl.

Her eyes lit up immediately.

He immediately looked up at Ji Silin.

Ji Silin said expressionlessly, "Eat."

"Thank you!" Meng Mian's eyes crinkled with joy again, and her voice was full of energy.

Ji Silin didn't know what was wrong with him, but he couldn't help taking care of Meng Mian.

Perhaps Meng Mian is too obedient and too soft-hearted now.

Ji Silin wanted to put down his chopsticks, since he had finished eating.

But Meng Mian was eating the fish meat that he had picked the bones out of for her, obediently and quietly.
