Chapter 16: What’s Wrong?
Chapter 16: What's Wrong?
He could not let his imagination run wild.
If he continued to think about it, the society would die.
"May I serve the food?"
"Sure."
Tang Rui hurriedly nodded.
A few waiters came to the table with plates and began to serve the dishes.
Four Tomahawk Steak Sets, Fruit & Vegetable Salad, Prawn Balls & Golden Fish Steak & Squid...
The table was full. If the table was smaller, the food really wouldn't be able to fit.
One word was highlighted.
It was true.
"Sir, your order is ready. Please enjoy your meal."
"Alright, thank you."
After Tang Rui finished talking with the waiter, he turned to look at Li Shuyao.
In the end, the other party looked at him with a smile, and his expression was a little strange.
As for his two younger sisters, they had their heads lowered and their hands on their foreheads. He didn't know what they were doing.
"Let's eat first. If it's not enough, we'll order later," Tang Rui said casually.
This was the most common thing they'd say during dinner.
"Alright."
Li Shuyao nodded with a smile and picked up the cutlery.
Zhou Ziqi and Tang Yue raised their heads and looked at Tang Rui cutting the steak with a knife and fork. Both of them had broken-down expressions.
"Sister Shuyao, that… Actually... My brother..."
Zhou Ziqi tried to organize her words for a long time but didn't know what to say.
"I understand. You're worried. Hurry up and eat. The steak here is not bad."
"Alright."
The two of them were helpless and could only eat.
Ah, Crap.
How useless they were.
However, the Tomahawk Steak was not bad, though it was a little too big.
The two ate half of it and did not dare to eat more.
She was afraid that she would get fat.
"You two can't eat anymore? It can't be, right?"
After Tang Rui finished his steak, he looked at his sisters' plates, and there was still half of the steak left. He frowned and asked.
"I can't eat anymore. I've gained three pounds recently." Tang Yue shook her head.
"I've gained weight recently too." Zhou Ziqi said.
"Come, give it to me. Don't waste it."
After Tang Rui finished speaking, he didn't wait for the two people to stop him and put the steaks on their plates onto his own plate.
It was delicious.
How fragrant. 𝐛𝗲𝗱𝗻𝗼𝐯𝐞𝗹.𝐨𝐫𝗴
Tang Rui ate very happily.
He didn't want to maintain his image anymore. There was no need.
She was a civil servant. She was so beautiful that there were many people chasing after her.
With his conditions, it was better to stop dreaming.
Therefore, eating was the most important thing for this blind date.
Forty minutes later.
Tang Rui put down the cutlery and leaned back on the sofa to rest.
He ate most of the dishes on the table.
The three women only ate some steak and salad.
Li Shuyao finished her steak, even the bread and soup that came with the set meal.
This made Tang Rui a little puzzled.
How did she maintain such a good figure by eating so much?
Could she be the type of person who wouldn't get fat no matter how much she ate?
That was too unfair.
Which window did the heavens close for her?
"Let's add each other on WeChat," Li Shuyao took out her phone and said.
"Alright."
Tang Rui was stunned for a moment and hurriedly took out his phone.
Scanning the code.
Add friends.
After adding her on WeChat, Li Shuyao left.
Only Tang Rui and the others were left.
"Brother, you'd better hurry up and earn money. Otherwise, with your current situation, don't even think about finding me a sister-in-law," Zhou Ziqi said resentfully.
"It doesn't exist. Didn't she take the initiative to add me on WeChat?"
"Alright, brother, as long as you're happy."
Tang Yue pursed her lips and didn't want to say anything.
"Let's not talk about this. Let's go shopping."
"Ah... You still want to shop?"
"We didn't need it at first, but your performance was too bad, and our benefits were greatly reduced. We can only make up for it with you."
They left the restaurant.
Tang Rui was pulled along by his two younger sisters with a helpless look to go shopping at Xinjiekou.
On the other side.
When Li Shuyao got home, she changed into a set of gym clothes and turned on the treadmill.
"It's noon. Why are you working out?"
Li Shuyao's mother watched her daughter turn on the treadmill and asked in confusion.
"I ate too much at noon. I have to burn off the calories."
Li Shuyao was also helpless.
Tang Rui ordered so many things, and it was impossible for her to give him her share. Thus, she could only finish it herself.
It was fine when she ate.
Now, it was very uncomfortable to work out.
"What do you think of Lil Tang?" her mother asked casually.
"It's alright, but we've only met once. There are many things that I can't tell," Li Shuyao answered while jogging.
"Then why don't we try to get along for a while? If you agree, I'll give your Auntie Liu a reply."
"Let's talk about it later."
Li Shuyao waved her hand, indicating that she should stop talking to her.
Because the treadmill's speed had already increased, if she were to speak, she would not be able to breathe properly.
They ran for half an hour.
Li Shuyao got off the treadmill and walked around the room for a while before she started to stretch her body.
After exercising for more than an hour, she finally stopped.
Shower.
She changed her clothes.
Li Shuyao sat in front of the computer, opened a special program, and started typing on the keyboard.
After a while, the computer screen displayed all kinds of information about Tang Rui
His WeChat chat history, his browser history, and his followers' information were on display.
Li Shuyao flipped through these messages and found that Tang Rui's social circle was small, and he only had a few messages with many women.
"How dare you call this a fish pond?"
She pursed her lips and was very speechless about Tang Rui's online name.
She thought he was a Tang Master.
In the end.
Just this?
However, in his browser history, she found some special websites.
She copied the website and clicked on it.
"Macau Casino welcomes you. We have the most professional and beautiful dealers here, and…"
She smacked her lips.
She had casually sent the website to a colleague who was on duty today.
"Block this website."
"Roger that."
"Get lost."
"Okay."
Putting down her phone, she curled the corners of her mouth and opened the various videos that Tang Rui had uploaded.
Among them were videos of Tang Rui doing science at the beginning, videos of him playing with airplane models, and videos of paper airplanes that had recently become popular.
Her eyes instantly widened when she saw the paper airplane that could hover in the air.
She was very surprised to see a paper airplane that could hover.
He appeared to have such an ability.
Li Shuyao closed the program and deleted these messages. She sat on the chair, deep in thought.
After a while, she took out her phone again and sent a message.
"Sister Zhang, please help me check the hotel records of this ID card."
"Alright."
In less than three minutes, a copy of the information was sent to her phone.
She opened it.
It was clean, and there was no record of him checking into a room in the past six months.
The most recent time was when he went on a vacation during the new year and stayed in a scenic area.
"Mom, reply to Auntie Liu."
After putting down her phone, Li Yaoyao shouted at her mother.
"I told you that Lil' Tang was fine. He's an honest child. I'll reply to your Auntie Liu now."
Li Shuyao's mother was delighted to hear her daughter say that.
Although it wasn't the best outcome, it was still a positive start.
…
It was past eight in the evening.
Tang Rui dragged his tired body back home, took off his shoes, and threw himself on the sofa, looking at the ceiling with lifeless eyes.
Tired.
He was too tired.
Although they had only walked a short distance, it was still tiring.
Who knew why he would end up like this when he was shopping with a woman?
It was as if the negative buffs were stacked up.
Even if he climbed up, he would only be physically tired at most. He wouldn't be so physically and mentally exhausted.
He lay there for more than 40 minutes.
Only then did he recover his strength and get up to take a shower.
After showering.
He felt refreshed.
He took out his phone and looked at Li Shuyao's WeChat. He didn't know what to say even after opening it for a long time.
Forget it.
She probably came over to have a meal with him because of his mother.
Falling in love or whatsoever… He didn't even need to think about it.
He put down his phone and wandered around the room.
He didn't know why.
His originally calm heart suddenly became restless, and his blood flowed a little faster.
"Let's see if the teachers have released any new works."
Tang Rui sat in front of the computer and opened a website, his heart full of anticipation.
"Error 404!"
Hmm?
What was happening?
Why did the website get an Error 404?
