Her Food Livestream Broke the Galaxy

Chapter 289: A Straight Guy is a Sweet Atmosphere Crusher

In five days?

Jiang Qiuqiu didn’t think she’d need five days. At this rate of recovery, she thought, ’I’ll be fine. I might even be able to stream once before the first PK round is over to thank everyone for their support.’

"You don’t even need to request a delay for the second PK round. I—" Before she could finish, she felt a hand grab her wrist.

"Absolutely not."

Mo Si spoke to the person on the terminal, but his words were for Jiang Qiuqiu as well. "She needs to rest. She can’t make too much food at one time."

Hearing Mo Si, Meimei coughed lightly. "I told you not to push yourself. If it’s too much, it’s too much. Xiao Wan and I will keep posting announcements on your stream channel and your social pages. We’ll request a five-day extension for the second PK round for you, too."

"Wait—"

"That settles it, Qiuqiu. You just focus on getting better. I’ll let you get back to spending time with your boyfriend."

"What boyfriend?" Jiang Qiuqiu was baffled. "Sister Mingmei, I don’t have a boyfriend."

"Huh?" Hearing Jiang Qiuqiu’s denial, Meimei was confused too. "When we came to see you the other day... wasn’t the man taking care of you by your bedside your boyfriend?"

Jiang Qiuqiu glanced over at Mo Si.

"He isn’t." ’Not yet.’

"So Little President Qian and I were both mistaken... Well, I’ll hang up now!"

"Goodbye, Sister Mingmei."

"Goodbye, Qiuqiu."

After ending the call, Jiang Qiuqiu turned to thank Mo Si. "Black Hole, thank you for taking care of me all this time."

"You don’t have to thank me," Mo Si said. "I’ve told you before, I’m willing to help you."

With that, he picked up the bag at his side and held it out to Jiang Qiuqiu.

"Is it the Spirit Nourishing Liquid?" Jiang Qiuqiu’s expression soured. "Time to drink the Spirit Nourishing Liquid again. It tastes so awful."

But as she took the bag, Jiang Qiuqiu felt the weight was a bit off.

She opened the bag and saw that besides the tube of silvery-white liquid, there was also a black velvet box inside. Jiang Qiuqiu paused, then took out the velvet box. "What’s this?"

He hadn’t thought anything was odd when he bought it.

It was just... last night, Jiang Qiuqiu had asked for a gift. Mo Si mused that after surviving such a close call, it was only normal for a young woman to want a present after finally leaving the hospital. The problem was, he had forgotten to bring one.

So last night, after returning to his villa, Mo Si had gone back out to buy a gift. It was only on his way back that he noticed the lights in Qiuqiu’s house were still on. That was how he knew the girl had secretly stayed up late.

His thoughts returned to the small square box in the present. Mo Si spoke, "It’s a gift."

"A gift?"

"Yeah." ’The atmosphere feels a little strange,’ Mo Si thought. "Didn’t you say you wanted a gift?"

She opened the box. Inside the square, black velvet case lay a silvery-white metal necklace. It wasn’t a particularly special gift. In fact, what Mo Si had said when giving it to her was almost comically blunt. ’What kind of line was, "Didn’t you say you wanted a gift?"’

’It made it sound like she’d begged him for it.’

But Jiang Qiuqiu was still very happy.

She smiled, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Mo Si. "Thank you, Black Hole! I love it!"

"Yeah." Mo Si felt her joy was infectious. He averted his gaze. "I’m glad you like it."

After they spoke, Jiang Qiuqiu continued to fiddle with the necklace for a long time.

For so long that Mo Si felt his face grow warm. ’He couldn’t understand... why did she keep playing with the necklace?’

So, he couldn’t help but interject, "Qiuqiu, now that you’re done looking at the necklace, hurry up and drink the Nourishing Liquid. It’s almost noon, and it’ll be time for your second dose."

"..."

The joyful atmosphere was instantly shattered.
