Chapter 102: Chapter 101: Good Appetite
Qi Yue fumbled to hold her stomach, but it was already too late.
“Hmm? What’s that sound?”
“It seems like someone’s stomach is growling…”
Jiang Lang and the others exchanged glances, then the people busy at the table began to urge anxiously, “Oh, I’m starving, I’m starving, let’s start eating quickly!”
Qi Yue could feel the cold sweat almost streaming down. Thankfully there were many people in the room, and everyone was hungry, so it wasn’t clear whose stomach had made the noise and nobody paid attention to the sound just now.
“Gu Huai! You wouldn’t really have forgotten to prepare a present for me, would you? No way, no way!” Ling Feng continued to hop about, clamoring for his gift.
“What gift?”
“Oh my, how can you say such cold words with your thirty-seven-degree mouth, oh wait, you might be more than thirty-seven degrees right now…” Ling Feng nearly cried, clutching at his little heart and began to sing, “Cold leaves float elegantly, scattering across my face, my child rebelled and wounded my heart deeply, the words you said are like icicles piercing into my very soul, mom is really hurt…”
Qi Yue: “…”
“In the bag at the door, get it yourself.” Gu Huai spoke up.
Ling Feng immediately bounced off to grab the bag, “Wow! Roast chicken, roast duck, beef jerky, cured meat, dried sweet potatoes… all my favorites!”
Qi Yue: “…”

These were what she had helped the big boss pick out!
“Hand me a pack of the beef jerky.” Gu Huai said.
As Qi Yue was enduring hunger, a corner of the blanket was suddenly lifted, and then through the dim light, Qi Yue saw Gu Huai’s slender fingers pushing a bag of beef jerky into her hands, which he had even considerately opened for her.
Qi Yue: “…!!!!”
Thanks to the big boss for feeding me!
Qi Yue tried to make no sound, quietly beginning to stuff her mouth.
Indeed, the beef jerky she bought from the farm was delicious! So authentic! It’s just that too much meat can become a bit greasy…
Just as Qi Yue finished eating, the blanket was lifted a bit more, and Gu Huai stuffed a bag of dried sweet potatoes to her!
Qi Yue: “…!!!!”
This feeding was even more exciting than the top donor sending rockets!
The delicious food successfully made Qi Yue temporarily forget her current miserable situation, better to eat her fill first!
Due to her usually high level of physical activity, Qi Yue’s appetite was always quite large, and it wasn’t long before Gu Huai had fed her almost all the tasty foods on the table.
Jiang Lang, who was having a beer and boasting with some buddies, glanced in Gu Huai’s direction and only saw a pile of food packaging in the trash can beside him, and exclaimed in surprise, “Alas! Gu Huai, even though you’re running a fever, your appetite seems pretty good!”
Gu Huai: “Not bad.”
Qi Yue with the great appetite: “…”
What am I here for exactly? Did I come here just to freeload on the food…
Actually, she hadn’t planned to eat so much, just wanted to pad her stomach a bit, but as the big boss kept feeding her under the blanket, she just kept eating…
“Come on, come on! Time for cake, time for cake!”
“Hold on, you bandits, I haven’t made my wish yet!”
“What wish should a big guy like you make, anyhow!”
“Go away, go away, I want to light the candles and make a wish! I wish to be single no more this year!”
“Single no more! What nonsense! The wise do not swim in the river of love, don’t make the same old mistakes, long live the bachelor King with a doctorate!”
“Hahaha, long live the bachelor King with a doctorate, Jiang Lang, are you implying something about Gu Huai? But if I could be like Gu Huai, heck, I’d rather be a bachelor King!”
“Not me! I want to cling onto a rich lady!”
…
After a bout of noisy commotion, they finally got around to blowing out the candles and making their wishes outside.
Qi Yue also silently made a wish, hoping their party would end soon.
As she sighed under the blanket, Gu Huai pushed a small piece of cake to her.
Qi Yue: “…”
Big boss! Stop feeding me, stop it!
This was ridiculously like attending a party from start to finish under the blanket, even having the birthday cake, what kind of situation was this…
