Gorgeous Female Tenants

Chapter 280: So Handsome

After Xu Xiangbei patiently explained five times, with sweat on his forehead, Lu Xiaomei finally had a sudden realization.

Once she figured it out, Lu Xiaomei relaxed her tightly knit brows and laughed naively: "So Miss Gu is your future wife, you two are family. If you had said this earlier, I would have understood. You’re not very sharp, such a simple thing, you explained so complicatedly, even worse than me."

Xu Xiangbei immediately felt like he wanted to spit blood.

He took Lu Xiaomei back to the villa community, and it was already noon. He called Gu Xinyan, wanting to go upstairs and take her out to a northeastern cuisine lunch.

But Gu Xinyan was packing her luggage and didn’t want to go out to eat. She left a message over the phone, asking Xu Xiangbei to bring her some noodles.

Just as they arrived at the northeastern restaurant’s entrance, he heard Lu Xiaomei’s stomach growling. Xu Xiangbei then noticed Lu Xiaomei’s face was a bit pale, and her eyes looked listless.

"What’s wrong with you, are you sick?"

Lu Xiaomei listlessly shook her head: "I’m fine, it’s just..."

"It’s just what?"

Her face slightly red, Lu Xiaomei hesitated to say: "It’s just that I’m a bit hungry."

So she was hungry. Not paying Lu Xiaomei’s salary was already embarrassing, he couldn’t let her starve, so Xu Xiangbei ordered four dishes and a soup.

When asked what staple food to eat, Lu Xiaomei puzzledly asked the waitress, "I want to eat rice. How do you serve your rice here?"

The waitress had a warm attitude and smiled: "We serve rice on big plates; it’s just right to fill two people."

Lu Xiaomei stared silently straight at Xu Xiangbei.

Seeing her eyes, Xu Xiangbei felt she wanted to order something but was embarrassed to say, so he smiled and said: "Order whatever you want to eat, it will definitely be filling."

Upon hearing Xu Xiangbei’s words, Lu Xiaomei immediately became excited: "Really filling?"

"Of course, it’s filling. If I don’t pay you and don’t let you eat enough, I would be like a feudal landlord Zhou Bapi."

Emboldened, Lu Xiaomei coldly said to the waitress: "Give me ten plates of rice."

Xu Xiangbei was just pulling out a cigarette and, hearing this, his hand shook almost dropping it.

The waitress was also shocked, gesturing with her hands: "We serve rice on this big of a plate, not a small bowl."

Feeling the waitress doubted her, Lu Xiaomei was displeased and impatiently said: "I know, ten plates of rice."

When ten plates of rice were all placed on the table, the whole table was full. The customers at the next table saw the rice-filled table and couldn’t help but laugh.

Xu Xiangbei had black lines all over his face, very doubting whether Lu Xiaomei could eat so much rice.

When the dishes arrived, Lu Xiaomei ate like a whirlwind, opening her mouth wide and continuously eating rice at a speed that made it seem like she didn’t chew the rice, as if drinking porridge, swallowing it down with a tilt of her head.

Xu Xiangbei watched, dumbfounded; the customers at the next table and the restaurant’s waiters laughed, whispering, with bursts of laughter coming through.

Xu Xiangbei’s face turned slightly red from being watched. This girl can eat so much, more than several times the amount of a normal man’s meal.

Curiously, Xu Xiangbei asked: "Lu Xiaomei, eat slower, all this rice is yours. Normally, how much rice do you eat in one meal?"

Wiping her greasy mouth, Lu Xiaomei laughed unreservedly: "I usually eat three jin of rice for lunch, fifteen buns each for breakfast and dinner, sometimes adding fifteen eggs as a snack. But my mom never lets me eat my fill, really thank you, Doctor Xu, for letting me eat my fill."

Xu Xiangbei suddenly felt like he boarded a pirate ship, shouting that he was tricked, the city’s tricks are deep, truly hard to guard against.

When Lu Xiaomei followed him away, Lu Zhigang and Lu Daan, father and son, laughed happily, like enjoying liberation after many years of fighting.

At that time, he thought it was because father Lu Zhigang’s leg was healed, making them happy.

Now thinking back, it was because their big-eating sister finally went out to work, no longer eating crazily at home, making them so happy they laughed.

Xu Xiangbei made small calculations in his heart, with her eating habits, 200 yuan a day isn’t enough for her meals, no wonder the Lu Family’s financial situation was so dire, probably half ruined by Lu Xiaomei’s eating.

No wonder her mother insisted that Lu Xiaomei follow him and didn’t ask for a salary; her monthly meal expenses were almost as much as a normal wage. Fortunately, he had significant financial resources now, assets over a hundred million, might as well take a little hit.

The die is cast, can’t just send her away just because Lu Xiaomei can eat, a big eater.

After eating to her fill, Lu Xiaomei burped with a face full of contentment and happiness, eyes even misted, seemed like she hadn’t felt filled for a long time.

She recalled Xu Xiangbei’s earlier phone call with Gu Xinyan, reminding Xu Xiangbei: "What does your wife want to eat? Let’s bring some for her."

Hearing Lu Xiaomei blatantly call Gu Xinyan his wife, Xu Xiangbei playfully pressed a finger to his lips, instructing Lu Xiaomei.

"Shh, in front of anyone, including Miss Gu, don’t mention she’s my future wife, because in the entertainment circle, idols can’t fall in love, it affects fan value. Do you understand?"

He thought it would take many times to explain for Lu Xiaomei to understand the relationship, but didn’t expect after eating, Lu Xiaomei’s IQ improved significantly, understanding with just one explanation from Xu Xiangbei.

Lu Xiaomei comprehended, covering her mouth to laugh: "I’ll keep your secret. If I fail, you can punish me with a day of not eating."

For Lu Xiaomei, this was truly a venomous oath, a day without food is life-threatening.

Lu Xiaomei followed Xu Xiangbei to the apartment, Gu Xinyan saw Xu Xiangbei bringing back a tall girl, looking confused, staring at them in puzzlement.

Xu Xiangbei smiled and introduced them: "This is my friend Lu Daan’s sister, Lu Xiaomei. She’s very capable and just right to be your life assistant."

Thinking that in the future, the film company would pay for Lu Xiaomei’s meals, Xu Xiangbei felt relieved, silently laughing, finally throwing away a big burden.

Gu Xinyan’s beautiful eyes widened, curiously looking at Lu Xiaomei, because Lu Xiaomei was tall, while she was sitting in a wheelchair, her neck got sore from looking up.

She couldn’t help but rub her sore neck, thinking this girl is over 1.8 meters, almost 1.9 meters, considered a small giant among girls, she’s too tall.

While Gu Xinyan was curiously observing Lu Xiaomei, Lu Xiaomei was equally enthusiastic, eyes wide, looking down as if looking at a little lamb at Gu Xinyan.

To Lu Xiaomei, Gu Xinyan was like a well-dressed doll, she giggled: "This little sister is really pretty, just like a little star in the movies."

Gu Xinyan’s face flashed a blush on her fair cheeks from this comment.

Xu Xiangbei laughed: "You’re right, it won’t be long before she’ll become a star."
