Chapter 22: I Like to Eat Meat
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Even though Jiang Yu felt that this title was a little too intimate for her liking, she just decided to accept it as Jiang Cheng Lang was the big brother of this character.
The name ‘Xiao Yu’ was a little childish and she was also called ‘Big Sister’ in her past, it was just a name after all so it didn’t matter much.
“It’s getting late, let’s go downstairs for dinner.”
Jiang Cheng Lang asked, “Xiao Yu, do you have any dietary preferences? Tell me and I will let the chef know.”
!!“Celery, it’s disgusting.”
“What would you like to eat then?”
Jiang Yu thought for a while and said, “I like to eat meat.”
“Hmm…”
Jiang Cheng Lang looked her up and down, thinking that this little girl might just be growing or perhaps she was just having a craving.
She looked frail and thin. She did not look like the type to eat a lot of meat.
“Okay, chicken, pork or beef?”
“Anything is fine.”
Jiang Wan piped up, “Big Brother, I want to eat beef!”
As she spoke, she ran to Jiang Cheng Lang’s side and slipped her arm around his. “Big Brother, you must have been hard at work for the two weeks you were away. I can make out the dark circles under your eyes! Are you tired? Sit down and I will massage your shoulders.”
“There’s no need.”
“Why are you being so courteous with me? Big Brother, you love me so much and I must repay your affections.”
Jiang Wan leaned her head against Jiang Cheng Lang’s shoulder and rubbed against it affectionately.
She followed Jiang Cheng Lang downstairs and waited while he talked to the butler about tonight’s dinner. When he was done, she pulled him to a chair in the dining room and sat him down. She placed her two small hands on Jiang Cheng Lang’s shoulders and began to knead.
“Big Brother, is this alright?”
“Yes.”
“Then it was not in vain that I practiced while Big Brother was away on business. I was waiting for you to come back so that I could put these skills to good use.”
A smile appeared on Jiang Cheng Lang’s face. “Wan Wan really is a thoughtful girl.”
A smile bloomed across Jiang Wan’s face.
As she massaged Jiang Cheng Lang’s shoulders, she sneaked a peek at Jiang Yu through the corner of her eyes. Jiang Yu was not paying them any attention.
Jiang Yu was sitting on the sofa, busy looking at her phone.
Her fingers flew across the screen of her phone. No one knew what she was looking at but her expression was serious. She had had her face buried in her phone, completely engrossed in its contents.
Jiang Wan snorted under her breath.
Everyone knows that the phone was the fastest and easiest way to avoid embarrassment. Jiang Yu knew that she wouldn’t fit in so she used her phone to pretend that she didn’t care about what was going on around her.
Ha, she has been together with her big brother for so many years. How could an outsider like her hope to compare?
In reality though, Jiang Yu really did not care about what Jiang Wan was up to.
She was busy thinking of how to pay back Jiang Cheng Lang for his gift. Since it had been a gift, the price could not be too different. Otherwise, it would look like she was just taking advantage of him.
According to her own standards, the gift she gave has to be of equal value to what she had been given. So now, money was a problem.
She had just arrived in this world. It turns out that she could not bring her wealth with her. The owner of this body did not have much money to speak of. She only had 10,000 yuan to her name.
She was poor.
Fortunately, it was easy enough to earn some money.
In the past, Jiang Yu was never worried about money because she earned a tidy sum and never could spend it all. There always seemed to be people willing to give her money. It has been a long time since she had to look for a new job.
She did have her basic business skills though. If that something existed in her original world, it should exist here as well.
She scoured the forums and quickly found what she was looking for.
