Chapter 640: Chapter 642 Popcorn
Zhao Guangran was in a really good mood today, knowing that Gong Ruini was punished by Uncle Gong.
This was huge news. Although he didn’t know why, it wasn’t fake news—it was very much the real deal.
Especially since Gong Ruini was so angry that she refused to come out for dinner. This move really scared Zhao Guangran.
He had been punished by his parents and elder brother so many times. No matter how wronged he felt, he never dared to complain, let alone protest in this way.
Zhao Guangran had thought about using this method, but as soon as he was about to try it, his dad blocked the door. If he really dared to do it, he’d be without food in the future.
You know how parents said that, Zhao Guangran wasn’t stupid. He wouldn’t dare to make the same mistake again; of course, he just obediently ate his meals.
And now that Gong Ruini was doing this, Zhao Guangran was really looking forward to seeing Uncle Gong’s reaction.
If Uncle Gong let Gong Ruini off easily, then he’d want the same treatment in the future.
Zhao Guangran actually didn’t want to go out. He wanted to stay at home to see if Gong Ruini would really not eat and also to see how Uncle Gong, who always pampered Gong Ruini, would handle it.
Unexpectedly, someone came to the village selling popcorn, and he couldn’t sit still. It wasn’t a common occurrence. After fetching some corn and rice from home, Zhao Guangran hurriedly went to get them processed.
Zhao Guangran hadn’t thought that Gong Ruini might sneak some food while he was gone, but it was just a short time, so it was unlikely she’d get a chance.
Zhao Guangran hadn’t considered whether his big brother would help, but his brother consistently wouldn’t indulge someone continuing to defy after making a mistake, so he took Gong Ruwen away.
No other way, since Gong Ruwen had such a worried look, he was sure that as soon as he left, that brother who pampered his sister would definitely give Gong Ruini something to eat.
When Zhao Guangran returned home with the processed popcorn, the first thing he did was take some to find Gong Ruini.
He wasn’t doing it out of goodwill; he just wanted to see if Gong Ruini was firm, remembering how when he was punished, Gong Ruini neither mocked nor coaxed him to play along.
Zhao Guangran had been wanting to get back at Gong Ruini but never found such a good opportunity. This time he finally caught it.
"Ni Zi, eat something." Zhao Guangran leaned at the door, looking into Gong Ruini’s room again and again. There was no one—good, good.
Then Zhao Guangran carefully stepped in, taking popcorn out of his pocket for Gong Ruini. "Ni Zi, eat, this is nice and sweet, I added a lot of sugar."
"No one’s around right now, you can eat."
Worried Gong Ruini wouldn’t want to eat, he added, "I won’t laugh at you." Only when you take a bite will I laugh.
Really so kind? Gong Ruini wanted to play along for the drama, but someone’s expression was too revealing of his intentions. "Brother Guangran, your expression betrays your heart."
No way, Zhao Guangran was dumbstruck. Did he really show it that obviously?
Humph, definitely trying to trap him, "Hey, you’re being excessive."
Excessive? Gong Ruini was very satisfied with Zhao Guangran’s angry mood. Someone wanted her to fall into a trap, but she just didn’t and instead got him into one. She felt great.
"You queued today, right?" What a foodie, getting excited over this. Gong Ruini didn’t care much for it, only nostalgically had a few bites upon first seeing it, but wasn’t too interested after.
"Mm, lots of people. I went as soon as I got the news, didn’t expect to still be late." Zhao Guangran wasn’t too upset, though; even if not first, he was still near the front.
As for Gong Ruini not eating, Zhao Guangran didn’t think it was a problem; he just had to eat a few bites happily in front of her. When her stomach growls, she’ll have a harder time resisting.
Zhao Guangran was sure Gong Ruini would end up eating, so he happily ate while chatting with her, not forgetting to say, "It’s delicious, really delicious, and sweet."
Watching Zhao Guangran’s chewing mouth, Gong Ruini kept thinking, hoping he’d become a big fatty from eating so much and making no distinction from a certain animal.
"If you like it, eat more." Does this compare to beef? Such junk, yet Zhao Guangran eats with such gusto.
Gong Ruini genuinely felt sorry for Zhao Guangran, finding this tasty. She couldn’t imagine how he’d react if he tasted chips, chocolate, beef jerky, etc., in the future.
Will he eat and eat, becoming a big fatty? Gong Ruini was really looking forward to it.
Taking big bites of popcorn, Zhao Guangran felt less and less entertained because Gong Ruini simply ignored him, letting him eat away.
If not for someone coming to the rescue, Gong Ruini might not have held back. Now with her stomach half full, she wasn’t into such junk food.
Not to mention, knowing this guy’s ill intent, she’d not step into it. Eat, eat.
Gong Ruini remembered Zhao Xu mentioned their dad’s cooking was too good today; Zhao Guangran ate quite a bit of noodles. Even if he went out for a stroll, how much room could his stomach have?
And now eating so much popcorn, she was really worried his stomach would burst.
See, she couldn’t help but check on him from time to time, and Zhao Guangran was secretly delighted, eating more eagerly.
"Ni Zi, it’s pretty good, have some." He took a handful to hand to Gong Ruini.
My God, those saliva-coated hands grabbing food to give to her—that would be eating his saliva? The more Gong Ruini watched, the more disgusted she felt.
"I won’t eat." Gong Ruini kept her head down, better to type honestly. If she stared at that guy any longer, she might really stuff food in.
Again, not eating. Humph, won’t believe you can hold out for long.
Zhao Guangran intentionally wanted Gong Ruini to ask for food, so he relished his eating, occasionally making sounds.
Zhao Xu, after washing the dishes outside, chatted for a while before returning to Gong Ruini’s room, only to see his silly brother enjoying popcorn.
What surprised him most was that his brother had already eaten much of it. He saw the bag when Zhao Guangran came in, and now more than half was gone.
Glancing at Zhao Guangran who was still eating, Zhao Xu said, "You keep eating, aren’t you stuffed?"
This kid had no self-awareness, ruining himself just to get Gong Ruini to eat? Zhao Xu didn’t understand his brother’s brain.
