Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 643: Chapter 380: Qiao Aimin’s Invitation / Luo Lian’s Hard Life (Part 2)

Luo Lian warmly clasped her arm: ”Let’s go, Little Luoluo, today I’ll let you splurge on me, tell me, what do you want to eat?”

”Are you afraid of getting fat?” Luo Ye asked.

”Not afraid, if I get fat I can always lose weight later, even if you ask for fatty pork belly today, I’m willing to accompany the gentleman.”

Jiujiu’s eyebrows raised slightly, and her lips twitched. Luo Ye noticed her expression and asked in confusion, ”Jiujiu, what does that expression mean?”

Jiujiu revealed the truth: ”Miss loves to eat fatty pork belly, it’s us who don’t let her eat too much.”

”Pfft!” Luo Ye laughed while pointing at Luo Lian’s forehead scolding her, ”Oh you’re sneaky, clearly you want to satisfy your own craving under my name, acting as if you reluctantly accompany me, what a big villain, you’re clearly trying to get them to blame me.”

”Eating less fatty meat is not a big deal.” Luo Lian smiled softly and gently, ”They’re just overly worried about me getting hypertension or hyperlipidemia in the future, I’m only 20 years old.”

Luo Ye was exasperated: ”Indeed, it’s a bit too early to worry, let’s go, we can still make a reservation now, if we’re late, we might have to wait, their business is still not bad at noon.”

”Okay.”

Luo Ye reached out: ”Give me the car keys, I’ll drive.”

”Okay,” Luo Lian replied, taking the keys from Jiujiu and handing them to Luo Ye. She then said, ”Jiujiu, why don’t you wait for Yanyan and Qiuqiu to finish up, then you can go eat together? You’ve already seen Little Luoluo’s skills, with her accompanying me, there won’t be any danger.”

Jiujiu shook her head firmly: ”No, I am Miss’s personal bodyguard, I must stay by Miss’s side.”

Luo Lian glared at her: ”Jiujiu, why are you being so disobedient?”

”Miss, I must follow by your side.” Jiujiu looked at Luo Ye: ”Miss Luo, it’s not that I don’t trust you, but protecting Miss is my duty, I can only be reassured by staying at her side.”

Luo Ye patted her shoulder: ”Let’s go.”

Jiujiu quickly ran to open the car door for Luo Lian, ”This stubborn child, I really am at my wit’s end with you.”

”With her by your side, we’re reassured, ordinary people are indeed no match for Jiujiu,” Luo Ye said, starting the car quickly and driving away, she continued: ”Don’t think I’m boasting, I’m speaking the truth, I do have standards to measure up to.”

”You forgot, I also know hand-to-hand combat, maybe not as strong as you, but still, seeing who has more strength isn’t a problem.”

”No need to remind me,” Luo Ye pouted, ”Are you also thinking about having a one-on-one practice fight with me?”

Luo Lian smiled and said, ”Some guidance without distinguishing a winner is okay, I still have a sense of self-awareness.”

When they arrived at Donglaishun, it was the peak time for guests, and the waitress looking at the three of them, pointed to a corner next to the wall: ”Could the ladies squeeze over there?”

Before Luo Ye and Luo Lian could say anything, Jiujiu frowned and sternly said, ”No, we want a private room.”

The waitress politely said, ”A private room has a minimum consumption. If you’re just having lunch, I recommend it’s better to sit over there.”

Jiujiu’s gaze turned cold, and she raised her eyebrows: ”Are you suggesting we can’t afford it?”

”No no, you misunderstood,” the waitress quickly explained, ”Seeing that you look like students, I thought of helping you save some money, now besides that table by the wall, the other tables are big ones. Once it’s full, it might have to accommodate two or three groups of people at one table, which can be quite inconvenient, I really meant well.”

”Still, please reserve a private room for us.” Luo Lian smiled softly, ”It’s my friend who misunderstood you, we’re really sorry.”

Jiujiu also apologized, ”Sorry, I was too hasty.”

”It’s alright, it’s my fault for not making it clear,” the waitress checked the list again and then smiled at them, ”The private room left is 205 on the 2nd floor, go upstairs, turn right, it’s at the very end.”

”Thank you,” Luo Ye said, making sure to note the waitress’s name tag, Sun Xian, such a nice name.

After entering the room and ordering their meal, Jiujiu closed the private room’s door and stood outside, no matter how Luo Ye and Luo Lian persuaded, she wouldn’t come inside.

Eventually, Luo Lian gave in to her, helplessly smiled at Luo Ye: ”Now you understand what I was saying, these girls, all of them are so particular.”

”Yanyan and Qiuqiu are not eating with you?”

Luo Lian shook her head: ”That’s not it, they are not bodyguards, so they are not that particular about eating, but in many other things, they are just as stubborn as Jiujiu.”
