Love Apartment: Yifei is my junior aunt

Chapter 410 The Restaurant's Signature Dish

Zeng Xiaoxian's eyes twitched violently when he heard Lisa's words.

"Lisa, you...you really have a keen ear for people."

Xiaoxian was initially annoyed, but then revealed a smile that was even uglier than crying.

If it had been Hu Yifei who had just mocked him, he would definitely be arguing with her now.

But the person saying this now is Lisa, her boss.

He had the courage to argue with Yifei, but not the guts to talk back to Lisa.

It wasn't until this moment that the eldest brother realized Xiaoxian and the others knew Lisa, and he asked, "You guys...?"

"..."

"What is the relationship between them?"

Zeng Xiaoxian squinted his eyes, his tone and expression as humble as could be.

"This is my wise and capable boss."

"This is my despicable and incompetent subordinate."

Lisa sighed deeply and answered resignedly.

She is in a very bad mood right now.

What's more annoying than blind dates in this world?

Of course, it was her lewd and despicable subordinate who discovered her blind date.

Actually, given Zeng Xiaoxian's personality, he definitely wouldn't have the guts to spread rumors about his blind date at the station. She doesn't need to worry about hearing gossip like "a female leader in her thirties who is unwanted is going on a blind date" at the station in a few days.

But it's already a disaster if Zeng Xiaoxian is the only one who knows about this blind date!

She didn't want to be stared at by this guy every day with strange looks, as if he was about to shamelessly come over and introduce her to potential blind dates.

Lisa could even imagine what kind of utterly speechless scenes she would face in the future.

In Lisa's fantasy, she's in her office, completely overwhelmed with work.

At that moment, Zeng Xiaoxian, hunched over, tiptoed into the office, and the first thing he did was lock the door and close the curtain.

Lisa sighed helplessly.

[Very good, he must think he's being very cautious.]

[But given this blatant attempt to cover something up, Lisa is certain that by tomorrow morning, rumors will be circulating at the station that a certain older, single female leader has been sexually harassing and slept with a male radio host.]

Just as Lisa was troubled, Seohyun approached furtively, lowering his voice and asking in a fawning tone.

"Lisa, do you want a husband?"

"Just ask, and I'll introduce you to potential partners."

"Don't worry, that's the brother of my cousin's son's boyfriend's girlfriend. He's a very outstanding and reliable person!"

"Besides, he's young, strong, and has plenty of stamina—you'll be satisfied!"

[As he spoke, Zeng Xiaoxian even made a cheeky lip-licking gesture.]

Lisa felt a chill run down her spine just thinking about the image.

But based on my understanding of this guy, he's definitely capable of doing something like this, and it's definitely not just once.

Even if I explain to him repeatedly that I don't need a blind date, he will definitely squint his eyes and say knowingly.

"I understand, I understand..."

"Boss, you care about your image, I understand..."

You know, you know!

[You know nothing!]

Lisa sighed; the vision of the future almost made her lose hope in life.

Good heavens, after finishing work and dealing with my family's pressure to get married, do I now have to deal with my subordinates' blind date introductions?

"Then just kill me with one sword!"

No.

Lisa made up her mind that she had to do something to prevent this possibility from happening.

For example... transferring Zeng Xiaoxian to a radio station in Afghanistan?

Oh well, he's just a bit of a jerk and a bit of a fool.

Even if stupidity is the original sin, it doesn't warrant death.

Lisa suddenly realized something. She raised an eyebrow and glared at Zeng Xiaoxian with a fierce look: "Zeng Xiaoxian, it's this late and you're still here accompanying your friend on a blind date?"

"Do you want to quit your job?"

"If you don't want to do this anymore, then get someone else replaced right now!"

"I'm innocent, Lisa!"

Xiaoxian protested, "I asked you for leave this afternoon, and you even scolded me on the phone."

"Yeah?"

Lisa then remembered that there really was such a thing.

Damn it, I've cursed Zeng Xiaoxian so much that I can't even remember why I cursed him this afternoon.

"yes."

Xiao Xian nodded seriously and said, "Lisa, don't worry, I've already asked Pete Zhu to cover for me, so it definitely won't cause any problems."

"but……"

He looked at Lisa, hesitating several times before finally unable to suppress his reckless instincts and asked, "But boss, shouldn't you be working at the station now? Why are you out on blind dates?"

"I……"

Lisa paused, unsure how to respond.

What should she say?

She said she also had someone cover her shift so she could go on blind dates?

If he said that, wouldn't he be on the same level as Zeng Xiaoxian?

"actually……"

Just as Lisa thought of a reason to explain, Seohyun squinted and said.

"I understand, I understand..."

"Even a leader's parched soul needs the nourishment of love, I understand..."

Lisa: "..."

You know, you know.

[You know nothing!]

Now you know why you're annoyed by him!

At this moment, seeing that the two seemed to have finished discussing work matters, the senior brother immediately stretched out his leg and kicked Zeng Xiaoxian four times under the table. The first three kicks were light, and the fourth one was heavy.

This is the code that Ziqiao taught them. The "three shallow and one deep" code that Du Jun is using now is equivalent to telling Xiaoxian that he is quite satisfied with Lisa and that he should give his full support as a wingman.

Xiao Xian, who understood the code, immediately looked embarrassed.

【Wait, Senior Brother, you've actually taken a liking to Lisa?】

Do you realize that if you get together with Lisa, you and Ziqiao will become comrades-in-arms?

Xiao Xian desperately tried to signal to his senior brother with his eyes, wanting to tell him that the plan had changed.

To his surprise, the senior brother didn't even glance at him; his eyes were fixed intently on Lisa.

This made Xiaoxian really angry.

You should know that one of their training programs is to observe your partner's every move through the corner of your eye. The senior brother had always cooperated very well before, so why is he messing up now?

If Ziqiao saw this, he would definitely curse him.

Ziqiao, Ziqiao, where are you?

Hurry up and yell at your senior brother through the headphones to wake him up!

What? He's still hiding under the table, too scared to come out?

That's fine.

Meanwhile, the senior apprentice had already begun the standard blind date process: "Lisa, my situation..."

"..."

"...You should..."

"..."

"...You understand the general idea now, right?"

"Um...wait a minute!"

Lisa nodded. She was thinking that the two sides should go through the formalities first, have a meal, and then she would think carefully about how to prevent Zeng Xiaoxian from behaving badly towards her because of this.

But when she suddenly remembered Zeng Xiaoxian's reason for taking leave, Lisa's expression changed instantly.

She suddenly turned to look at Xiaoxian: "Didn't you say when you asked for leave that Xiaobu was having kidney stone surgery tonight and no one would be taking care of him?"

"Where's Xiaobu? Where is Xiaobu right now?"

"What?!"

Ziqiao gasped in surprise from under the table.

Zeng Xiaoxian, you bastard! You can't just ask for leave without using yourself as an excuse!

Using himself as an excuse is one thing, but he even dared to spread rumors about my kidney!

My kidneys are perfectly fine!

"I think I heard Xiao Bu's voice."

Lisa stood up and looked around. She asked anxiously.

"Did Little Bu come too?"

Upon hearing the noise, Ziqiao quickly covered his mouth and curled up under the table without leaving a trace.

Not far away, Nanfeng and the others also held up menus to cover their faces.

Watching them have fun is fine, but if Lisa finds out they're watching, then things will really get funny.

After all, if Lisa really got angry, Teacher Zeng would be doomed.

"Lisa, you misheard. Ziqiao is in the hospital having kidney stone surgery. How could he possibly be here?"

Xiao Xian was afraid Lisa would get up, and then he was surprised to find that all the people in their apartment, about ten people in total, were there watching her and her senior brother on their blind date.

Good heavens, if things really develop like this, who knows what Lisa will do to herself.

He quickly pressed Lisa back into her seat and casually made up a story: "Lisa, you must be overworked lately, you're even hallucinating."

Xiao Xian smiled ingratiatingly, "Lisa, I know you and Xiao Bu are close, but don't worry, Xiao Bu has someone to take care of him."

"It's just a minimally invasive lithotripsy procedure; he won't have any problems."

Xiaoxian frantically winked at Lisa, saying, "Lisa, look at you! You've almost forgotten you're on a blind date."

Lisa felt a little relieved to hear that Xiao Bu was being taken care of.

After hearing the second half of Xiaoxian's sentence, she realized that she was still on a blind date and that her behavior just now was really too extreme.

She looked at her senior brother with a slight apology: "I'm sorry, Xiao Bu and I are very good... friends, so I got a little excited just now."

"fine."

The eldest brother handed the menu to Lisa: "First..."

"..."

"...Let's order."

"Thanks."

At this moment, Zeng Xiaoxian's lips were still twitching wildly after hearing Lisa say that she and Ziqiao were good friends.

Yes, good friends, definitely good friends.

【How can friends who can share a bed overnight not be considered good friends?】

Zeng Xiaoxian was full of complaints, but he couldn't tell his senior brother about her and Ziqiao in front of Lisa.

So he could only sit awkwardly to the side, squeezing out a few words through gritted teeth.

"You guys need to think of something quickly. We can't really expect me to play matchmaker for them."

"What are you talking about?" Lisa asked, puzzled.

"No, no..." Zeng Xiaoxian denied repeatedly.

……

Just as Lisa was being pushed back to her seat by Xiaoxian, Meijia saw that Lisa was still hung up on Ziqiao even though she was on a blind date, and she immediately started complaining.

But she was afraid that if she spoke up rashly, Lisa would hear her, and if that ruined Teacher Zeng's career, she would be in big trouble.

So, when Lisa wasn't looking, Mika subtly put down the menu and gestured to everyone with her eyes.

[It seems Lisa wasn't really serious about the blind date tonight; it looks like Senior Brother has no chance now.]

Guan Gu, looking sullen, pointed at his senior brother, Lisa, and Zi Qiao, who was huddled under the table.

[This has nothing to do with sincerity. If Senior Brother really gets together with Lisa, how awkward will it be when they run into Zi Qiao?]

Curry Sauce nodded.

Yes, Brother Ziqiao is both Senior Brother's dating mentor and Lisa's ex-boyfriend.

Those who know the situation would say it all happened by accident, while those who don't would think that Brother Ziqiao deliberately pushed it onto Senior Brother to take over.

Upon hearing this, Nanfeng gestured to her belly, making a gesture as if she were holding a baby, and then pointed to her senior brother, Lisa, and Ziqiao.

[So if they really get together, what if Senior Brother and Lisa's child looks a bit like Ziqiao...]

Those who understood the meaning of "South Wind" frowned.

【Alas……】

Yu Mo pointed at her senior brother with a helpless expression, and then made a heart shape with her hands.

[But I think Senior Brother seems to have fallen for Lisa now. Look at how dazed he is, his eyes are practically glued to her.]

Upon inspection, everyone saw that it was indeed as Yu Mo had said.

Yifei pointed at everyone and gestured with her eyes.

So, who among us will tell our senior brother the truth?

Everyone silently bent down.

This, this, this...

This is really hard to talk about.

Zhanbo had one last question, so he lowered his head and started playing with his phone.

[Tang Seng loves Pantene shampoo]: We just exchanged so much with our eyes and gestures. If we were afraid of being overheard by Lisa, why didn't we type it?

Everyone: "..."

Depend on!

Just as everyone was being outsmarted by Zhanbo, the dishes they had ordered earlier were finally served.

Centered on the eldest brother's position, the enticing aromas of dishes from the four tables around the apartment where everyone was seated began to spread, with the eldest brother and his group at the very center clearly being the most fragrant area.

Everyone saw that the senior brother and his group had entered the process of going through the procedures and ordering. At present, the situation was not too optimistic, but it was not too bad either.

At this moment, everyone who smelled the aroma of the food was clutching their stomachs, looking extremely hungry.

[Delicious curry sauce]: How about... we eat first?

The group chat immediately started flooded with messages.

【it is good! 】

【Can! 】

【agree! 】

I agree!

……

The four tables of people were drooling as they looked at the plates of grilled octopus on their own tables.

You should know that this restaurant's grilled octopus is absolutely amazing; they've all been craving it for ages.

I'm coming

Grilled octopus is here.
