Even as a "normie," I'm completely oblivious to it.

The platinum-colored leather shoes perfectly complement this outfit.

Her face was as exquisite as ever, and her eyes were as clear as a lake, spotless.

This simple change fundamentally altered Xiao Lizhi's overall character.

I just felt... well, this person isn't stupid, she really is the eldest daughter of the Ouyang family.

He hesitated for a long time before coming in.

Zixiao asked, a little puzzled, "What's wrong with you?"

Seemingly having mustered all her strength, Little Lychee forced a smile and nodded slightly.

"Miss Zixiao, good day."

"Wow, disgusting."

This offhand comment instantly shattered Xiao Lizhi's composure.

She covered her face with her hands and said in despair, "Don't say it out loud! I know it's disgusting to say this, but if Mom hadn't told me to act like a real young lady, I wouldn't want to greet you like this!"

I don't know Aunt Elisa's intention, I just thought she wanted Xiaolizhi to learn more about etiquette.

"Alright, alright, is it important? Don't stand outside, come in and sit down for a while. Your brother is still cooking. The hairy crabs you ordered are too much trouble, so you'll have to wait a bit."

"Really?!" Little Lychee's eyes lit up with surprise. She stepped into the house in a flash, completely abandoning the pretense of composure she had just put on.

With light steps, Xiao Lizhi walked towards the kitchen. Before opening the door, she noticed Qi Xinye in the living room.

She stopped again and bowed respectfully, saying, "Greetings, Sister Qi!"

"Ah? Ah... Little Lychee from Gui'an."

What's with this weird way of greeting people?

Zixiao closed the door and grabbed Xiaolizhi by the collar before she could enter the kitchen.

"Come back, come back, don't disturb your brother while he's cooking."

However, Little Lychee struggled for a moment: "No! No! Just one sentence! I'll say one sentence first!"

"One sentence?"

Zixiao didn't know what she wanted to say, but if it was just one sentence... then she would say it.

Zixiao opened the kitchen door and poked her head out to say to Yuzhe, who was cracking crab shells inside, "Brother, the lychees have arrived."

"Okay, I understand. Dinner will be served shortly."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Lizhi stepped into the kitchen, took a deep breath, and, as her mother had taught her, folded her hands in front of her skirt again, trying her best to show an elegant smile.

"Young Master Yu Zhe, greetings. Thank you for your invitation and hospitality tonight. I thank you in advance."

All he received was Yu Zhe's disdainful gaze.

"Ugh...disgusting."

"I told you not to tell anyone!"

18. Small lychees!

To be honest, it's quite tragic. Little Lychee is clearly a genuine young lady from a wealthy family, but she's completely unsuited to the style of a young lady.

Feeling dejected, she was still a little resentful and muttered to herself.

"Hmph... Is it really that disgusting... They clearly tried their best too."

She said it softly, but perhaps she was deliberately trying to let Yu Zhe hear it? So he heard it clearly.

Without stopping the act of cracking the crab shells, Yu Zhe turned his head slightly toward Xiao Lizhi.

The silver hair swayed, making Little Lychee's heart flutter.

"You don't need to force yourself to do things you're not used to. If Little Lychee turned into Big Pineapple, I would feel uncomfortable. So just be yourself."

No matter how Yu Zhe looked at her, her gold-trimmed dress made her look like a giant pineapple.

Let's not tell her.

Little Lychee gave a soft "hmm," then turned around with a relieved expression and prepared to leave the kitchen.

It's okay if I don't have to be a rich girl, as long as Brother Yuzhe is happy!

Yu Zhe quickly called out to her.

"Hey! Don't go yet, come help me put the plates on the table and call Zixiao and Sister Ye, we're about to eat."

"Little Lychee understands!"

She raised her hands above her head and gave a completely non-standard salute. Little Lychee no longer wanted to act like a young lady; she preferred to be free and unrestrained!

"Zixiao! Sister Qi! Dinner's ready!"

A vibrant voice echoed throughout

A living room.

Yu Zhe smiled. This was Xiao Lizhi's amazing skill. With her around, the atmosphere was always much more lively. It seemed that dinner would be quite a lively affair.

..............................

"Brother...you made this...in less than an hour?"

Zixiao looked at the dishes that filled the entire table, and even had to bring over a small shelf to put the dishes that couldn't fit on the table.

Her eyes twitched slightly. Of course, she knew that she couldn't judge her brother's abilities based on common sense, but what did this matter?

Superpowers?

Can a normal person cook more than a dozen dishes in less than an hour with limited kitchen equipment?

"Yes, some dishes can flavor each other, so there's no need to cook them separately. Stop looking and eat!"

Little Lychee's eyes were already shining as she stared intently at the dishes on the table, especially the prepared hairy crab in the center.

At the same time, Qi Xinye was shocked. In just a few short years, Xiao Zhe had gone further and further down the path of being inhuman.

While ordinary people are still learning to ride a bicycle, geniuses are already building their own airplanes.

This table is actually quite large, with a total of eight chairs. If four people sit one chair apart, there will be plenty of space.

But now the four of them insist on sitting side by side.

To be precise, it was Xiaolizhi and Zixiao sitting on either side of Yuzhe.

Qi Xinye arrived late and could only sit on the outer side.

"Waaah! I can't hold it in anymore!"

Little Lychee's eyes were practically brighter than the restaurant's main lights. She picked up her chopsticks, grabbed a piece of crab leg meat, and stuffed it into her mouth without any seasoning.

Then, a happy expression appeared on her face.

"Waaaah... I'm so touched."

Zixiao had just picked up her chopsticks when she asked, "What are you moved to now?"

As she placed the next piece of crab leg meat into her bowl, Little Lychee paused slightly, seemingly to express her respect for the meat.

"I'm sorry I can't cook, but thankfully I can eat! So I'm very touched!"

"puff!"

Yu Zhe almost spat water onto Xiao Lizhi.

"Look at you, so pathetic... Is being able to eat enough? Do you even know there's a position called the Cleansing Altar Messenger?"

"The Cleansing Altar Messenger? I know him, but why are you suddenly bringing this up?"

Looking at Xiaolizhi's silly expression, Yuzhe smiled without saying a word, finding it particularly amusing to tease her.

Qi Xinye couldn't help but laugh: "Little Lychee, is Xiao Zhe saying you are... Pfft, never mind."

"???"

Just because she doesn't say it doesn't mean Zixiao won't say it.

In short, your brother is saying you're a pig.

No, no, no... at most it's just talking about Pigsy, not a pig at all. Zixiao really doesn't hold back at all when it comes to Little Lychee.

Little Lychee suddenly realized, "Ah! Brother Yuzhe, you're insulting me! Just because something is edible doesn't mean it's a pig!"

“For example, there’s you.” Yu Zhe chuckled and pushed a dipping sauce in front of her. “Don’t be angry, don’t be angry. Dip it in the sauce and it will taste completely different.”

She was very concerned about this issue and wasn't completely distracted by the dipping sauce.

Although she still obediently dipped her tongue in the sauce and took a big bite before carefully swallowing it, she told Yu Zhe.

"Brother Yuzhe, I... I can eat a lot, but I won't get fat, okay?"

These boastful words sounded more like an explanation coming from Xiao Lizhi's tone.

Stepping past the puzzled Yu Zhe, Zi Xiao glared at Xiao Lizhi with a murderous look.

The other two are people who can't gain weight easily, but she's the only one who plans her diet to maintain her figure.

"Are you showing off?"

"No...no...Zixiao, calm down. I...maybe I might gain a little weight, who knows?"

Zixiao is so kind.

"That's great if I don't gain weight! I can eat more! These ribs, oh, and the cream cake, um... I guess it would be better to add a few more layers of cream."

She took out a whole half-plate of pork ribs and placed it all in front of Xiao Lizhi.

Then, after hesitating for a moment, he put a few pieces back in his pocket.

My brother's pork ribs were so delicious... Even though I was sulking, I still wanted to fatten up Little Lychee.

But Zixiao still couldn't bear to part with it; she wanted to eat it too! (>ω<*)

All that followed was Little Lychee's gratitude.

"Ah, Zixiao, thank you! You really are my best friend!"

I'm so touched. She gave all of this to herself. How can anyone be as kind as Zixiao? ... Waaah.
