Chapter 590: Chapter 590: So Stuffed with Dog Food, Who Needs Dinner?
Bai Haoxue bit into a piece of lamb, glanced innocently at Li Mingmo and then at Ji Hanyu, "Huh??? Did I say something? I didn’t say anything? I meant to say, hubby, how can you be so so handsome?"
Ji Hanyu tore off a piece of lamb and fed it to her, his gaze dangerous yet ambiguously affectionate: "If you dare compliment another man next time, you know what’s coming, right?"
Bai Haoxue’s pretty face turned red instantly, but she still continued to stroke his ego, "Hubby, you’re too impatient, I hadn’t finished speaking, I was going to say, without comparison there’s no harm done. That Lu Xiuyu, praised by Yiyi as unmatched, is like an ant next to a tree, starlight next to the sun when compared to my hubby!"
Ji Hanyu looked immediately smug: "..."
Li Mingmo looked as if he had eaten something bitter: "..."
He regretted it, he shouldn’t have come out to eat with this couple.
He was already full from eating dog food, why eat anything else?
He had to admit Bai Haoxue had Ji Hanyu wrapped around her finger.
With all the ego stroking, Ji Hanyu was more than enjoying it, he was almost floating.
However, Li Mingmo caught the key point, "What did you just say? Xi Wei praised Lu Xiuyu as unmatched?"
"Yeah? What’s wrong?" Bai Haoxue looked innocent, "If Yiyi hadn’t said it, how would I know he was Lu Xiuyu? Actually seeing Lu Xiuyu in person, Yiyi wasn’t exaggerating at all."
"Damn..." Li Mingmo downed a big glass of wine, "Xi Wei, that troublesome girl, I knew it, she’s always had a thing for Lu Xiuyu."
Tsk... the jealousy was palpable.
Just go for it then!
"Li Mingmo, look, that brother and sister duo are eating here too, they’re at the table behind us." Bai Haoxue said in a low voice.
"They’ll eat their food, and we’ll eat ours. Why should I look at them?" Li Mingmo said, though he seemed a bit uncomfortable.
"Tsk..." Bai Haoxue said, "After all, you’re acquaintances, aren’t you? One of them is your mentor, the other your beloved, don’t you think you should at least say hello?"
Li Mingmo kept a stern face, "I’m not going over. Besides, with my face looking like this right now, I can’t go.
Otherwise, Lu Xiuyu will think I’m on a mission or something."
"Speaking of which, the Lu Family is quite influential. Now, is Lu Xiuyu’s position higher or yours?"
Li Mingmo: "We’re the same."
"Wow..." Bai Haoxue said, "I always thought you were the youngest, but I didn’t expect Lu Xiuyu to be this young too."
Li Mingmo: "Lu Xiuyu is older than me, okay?"
Bai Haoxue: "But looking at Lu Xiuyu, it feels like you’re older than him."
Li Mingmo: "..."
"Damn!!!" Li Mingmo was so angry he almost flipped the table, "Ji Hanyu, aren’t you going to do something about your wife? Is it okay for her to make personal attacks like this?"
Ji Hanyu: "My wife isn’t wrong. Look at your face, then look at Lu Xiuyu’s face, sigh, your complexion ruins everything!"
Li Mingmo: "..."
"You treacherous couple, I swear I’ll never eat with you two again."
Li Mingmo said, "I’m out there facing the wind and rain, weathered and seasoned, how can that behind-the-scenes Lu Xiuyu compare with me on the front lines? I’m just a bit darker, but my face is better-looking than his!"
"Hmm hmm..." Bai Haoxue, seeing the near-pissed Li Mingmo, nodded with amusement, "What you say does have some truth to it."
