Chapter 27: I’ll Treat You to Breakfast

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Early the next morning, Jin Xi was woken up by the lizard. She rubbed her eyes and asked, “what’s wrong? Is there black mist again?”

The lizard immediately nodded.

“I’m not surprised.” Jin Xi bent over and lazily turned over. “As long as the roof is still there, the black mist will continue to appear. Even if you eat it all today, it will appear again tomorrow.”

The lizard obediently lay on the ground and licked the back of Jin Xi’s hand.

“I know you want me to take care of this matter, but the Jin family wants money more than their lives. They might not listen to me.”

After that, Jin Xi sat up and put the lizard in a glass bottle. Then, she went to the bathroom to wash up. As she had expected, Jin Yida would not tear down the roof at all. Not only that, he had left the house early, obviously hiding from her.

However, Jin Xi didn’t care at all. After all, she wasn’t the one who would suffer in the end. She picked up her bag and went out to hail a taxi to school.

As soon as she got out of the car, she heard a low and magnetic voice. “Good Morning.”

Jin Xi paused and turned around.

She saw Zhong Yihan in a suit and leather shoes, standing tall and straight beside a luxury car, looking noble.

“What are you doing here?” Jin Xi asked.

“I’m here to treat you to breakfast.” Zhong Yihan smiled. He opened the car door and made a gentlemanly gesture of invitation.

In the luxury car, there were a few thermal containers containing a variety of dishes, such as seafood porridge, fried buns, sandwiches, and a bowl of ramen. It was clear that these dishes were carefully prepared.

“Do I look like I have the habit of eating breakfast?” Jin Xi raised her eyebrows and asked.

“I know you don’t.” Zhong Yihan replied indifferently. He then picked up a sapphire-blue thermos cup, shook it a few times, and said, “but you would want this want.” He sounded confident.

In fact, Jin Xi was indeed wavering because she smelled the fragrance of milk tea from the thermos cup.

It was half-sugar, warm, and definitely two times the amount of pearls, which was her favorite. After thinking for a while, she slowly said, “alright.”

After saying that, Jin Xi took a step forward and sat in the luxury car.

With a smile in his eyes, Zhong Yihan opened the thermal containers one by one, then took out the tableware and handed it to her. “Milk tea is good for the stomach after breakfast.”

His tone was very stern, but it was full of gentleness, and Jin Xi’s heart softened.

Jin Xi picked up the chopsticks and slowly chewed. Her movements were elegant but not exaggerated. It was obvious that she had received professional etiquette training.

“How’s it?” Zhong Yihan asked with a chuckle.

Jin Xi raised her eyes and said faintly, “it’s alright.”

Hearing this, Zhong Yi, who was in the driver’s seat, almost vomited blood. This was the breakfast that Master Han had personally prepared, and she said it was just alright?

He felt a little sorry for Master Han.

“You’re quite picky.” Zhong Yihan raised his eyebrows and an unruly smile hung on his mouth.

Jin Xi finished the last fried bun and could finally drink the milk tea! She took a deep breath. It was fragrant and sweet, completely different from the ones sold in the store. It suited her taste.

“I’m goingto class. I’ll return your cup next time.” With that, Jin Xi took the thermos and got out of the car.

“Wait a moment.” Zhong Yihan suddenly called out to her.

“Is there anything else?” Jin Xi turned around and asked with her head tilted.

Zhong Yihan did not respond. Instead, he took out a piece of tissue and gently wiped the corner of her pink lips.

There was a small milk stain there.

“Done.” After wiping it off, Zhong Yihan rubbed her head. “Go to school.”

He sounded sweet, but it made Jin Xi inexplicably irritated. A trace of red appeared in the bottom of her dark eyes.

“Eh? Jin Xi, you’re so early today!” A girl ran over. It was her deskmate, the very well-behaved one.

“Yes, I woke up early today.” Jin Xi glanced at Zhong Yihan and entered the school gate.

“She has quite the temper.” Zhong Yihan leaned back in his seat and laughed in a low voice.

Zhong Yi coughed a few times and turned to the back. “Master Han, I don’t mean to disturb you, but don’t forget the purpose of our visit today.”
