Chapter 36: If You’re Full, Watch Me Eat

Li Beibei looked over in surprise. “I thought you don’t like coriander either?”

“It’s fine. I’ll just pick it out.”

And so, Li Beibei and Yi Ziyao exchanged their orders.

Li Beibei was rather embarrassed because she knew that people who did not like coriander would not like the taste of coriander in the soup even if the coriander was picked out.

Thus, she said, “I’ll treat you to dinner tomorrow.”

Yi Ziyao agreed readily. “Okay.”

“I think we should form a group called ‘No Coriander Alliance’.”

“Okay.”

“How about this: when you go on stage for your thank-you speech when you win the Azure Dragon Award for Best Actor… Appeal to everyone not to eat coriander. Your fans will definitely respond. This way, we will definitely be one step closer to a world without coriander.”

Yi Ziyao: “…”

“I was only nominated for the Azure Dragon Award. The possibility of winning the Best Actor Award is not high. The others are all veterans who are my seniors in the industry…”

Li Beibei took a big bite of beef and said affirmatively, “Don’t worry, it’s definitely you. Not only the Azure Dragon Award, but also the Huabiao Award and the Golden Rooster Award. You’re the youngest Best Actor in the history of Chinese showbiz.”

Li Beibei suddenly realized that she had let it slip.

Sure enough, the guy opposite her had already put down his chopsticks. “How do you know?”

She could not possibly say that she was reborn and was omniscient.

Li Beibei had an epiphany and pretended to be mysterious as she said, “I… know how to read fortunes.”

Yi Ziyao snorted again. “Nonsense.”

“It’s fine if you don’t believe me. When you win the Azure Dragon Award for Best Actor, remember to come and worship me.”

The two of them chatted happily as they ate. They did not notice a tall figure in the corner of the noodle shop.

Fu Jingmo came over not long after Li Beibei entered.

When he saw the video in the afternoon and knew that she hated coriander, he specially brought food for her dinner.

But when he got there, he heard her tell her roommate that she was going to have dinner at the food street.

He looked for her along the food street before finally finding her here. Then, he saw her sitting with a guy, chatting and laughing. She did not even notice him in the corner after a long time.

However, several female students came over—one after another—to strike up a conversation.

Li Beibei finally noticed Fu Jingmo when she was getting the check.

Li Beibei looked very surprised. “Why are you here?”

This kind of food street did not seem to be a place that Fu Jingmo would come to.

Fu Jingmo was obviously displeased. “I’m here to visit the set.”

Li Beibei thought for a moment before coming to a realization. “Bo Muyan hasn’t started filming yet.”

Fu Jingmo said, “I’m here to look for you.”

Li Beibei was shocked. “Why are you looking for me?”

“Your mother asked me to bring you something.”

“If she had something to give me, why didn’t she have the driver send it over?”

Although this place was in the suburbs, it was in the city not far from home. Even though Li Beibei had been staying in the dormitory on set for the past few days, it was only an hour’s drive away from home.

It would be more convenient for Lin Jinghe to send something over directly. Why did she have to go the roundabout way and pass it to Fu Jingmo before asking him to send it over?

Neither the Fu family’s residence nor Fu Jingmo’s company was close to their home.

Fu Jingmo: “…”

Li Beibei figured it out very soon—her mother liked to secretly matchmake the two of them.

“Fine. What did my mother ask you to bring me?”

Fu Jingmo glanced at Yi Ziyao.

Of course, Yi Ziyao knew the famous Second Master Fu.

However, he did not expect Li Beibei to be on such familiar terms with him.

When Yi Ziyao saw his gaze, he said tactfully, “Beibei, you guys chat. I’ll make a move first.”

After Yi Ziyao left, Li Beibei asked impatiently, “What is it? Give it to me quickly. I’m going back to sleep.”

“I haven’t eaten yet. Eat with me.”

“But I’m full.”

“If you’re full, watch me eat then.”

Li Beibei: “…”
