At this moment, Ruan Yaoyao had been observing silently for a long time, and still felt that Lin Yi should not be allowed to continue drinking. She quickly took action and grabbed Lin Yi's hand that was about to reach out to take the bottle opener, and puffed up her pink cheeks and glared at Lin Yi fiercely.

Faced with this situation, Lin Yi could only withdraw his hand in dismay, and said helplessly: "We only drank less than a box of wine."

However, Ruan Yaoyao's attitude was very firm, saying that it was absolutely impossible. Seeing this, Lin Yi could only smile bitterly and said, "Okay, okay, I get it, little housekeeper."

Before he finished speaking, Ruan Yaoyao suddenly raised her head, her beautiful eyes wide open, and asked coquettishly, "Who did you say was the housekeeper just now?"

Mi Yujian, who had been sitting quietly in the corner of the dining table, raised his head and looked at Lin Yi with complicated eyes. He then turned his gaze to Ruan Yaoyao, and then lowered his head again with a lonely expression.

Lin Yi glanced at the table and found that it was filled with a variety of delicious food and wine, most of which were meat dishes, but there were only a few vegetarian dishes. He couldn't help but think of the identity of Monk Yishan, so he turned around and wanted to ask if he needed help ordering two vegetarian dishes for him to eat...

However, before he could finish his words, Lin Yi froze.

The scene before him left him dumbfounded - he saw Yishan actually pouring a bowl of white rice directly into the dish of fragrant braised pork, then stirring it a few times with chopsticks, and then shoveling it into his mouth without hesitation.

Then he put down the plate again, grabbed a bottle of red wine beside him, and as if he was extremely thirsty, he suddenly pulled open the bottle cap and drank it straight from the bottle.

This series of movements was as natural and smooth as flowing water, leaving Ye Feng, who was sitting next to him, stunned with an expression of disbelief on his face.

Perhaps he noticed the strange looks from the people around him, but Yishan didn't pause or look embarrassed at all. He quickly swallowed the food in his mouth, then raised his head as if nothing had happened, and explained to everyone with a smile:

"Don't be surprised, everyone. I am blessed by the east wind as a martial monk. Except for the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar every month when I need to eat vegetarian food and recite Buddhist scriptures, I have no taboos about eating meat and drinking wine at other times." After saying that, he raised the half-finished bottle of red wine in his hand and gestured to everyone, as if to prove that what he said was true.

"Besides, the east wind will protect us."

I don’t know if it’s because he drank, but Yishan doesn’t speak as elegantly as before.

Pada Duck looked at the Peking duck in the bowl in front of him and couldn't help but burst into tears.

"This is not a reason for you to let a duck eat duck meat!" It was filled with grief and anger and could hardly control itself.

Ruan Yaoyao smiled awkwardly, but her eyes involuntarily drifted to Mi Yu, who was curled up in the corner and looked so out of place. She bit her lower lip tightly, trying not to show her emotions.

Recalling the painful experience of being isolated and bullied in her childhood, Ruan Yaoyao felt heartbroken. If Lin Yi had not stepped forward many times to help her get out of trouble and regain her confidence, I really don’t know what her situation would be like now. Whenever Ruan Yaoyao thought of this, she was terrified.

I was ostracized just because I was a little stronger, so the injustice suffered by Mi Yu, who was physically disabled, might be even worse than me. I guess the hardships she had experienced must be countless. Fortunately, I still have Lin Yi, someone I can confide in.

Ruan Yaoyao was full of sympathy and pity for Mi Yu, and thought: If such a beautiful girl could live like a normal person, she would definitely be sought after and loved.

Driven by compassion, Ruan Yaoyao carefully moved her body and sat down closer to the rice bath.

Lin Yi was quite surprised when he saw this, but he didn't say much, just looked away. He knew very well that everyone should have their own space, and they didn't need to report everything to him. This kind of behavior of excessively controlling others' words and deeds can only be done by those who have a strong desire for control.

“Pah.”

A crisp sound came, and Ruan Yaoyao gently patted Mi Yu's shoulder. However, this seemingly slight touch made Mi Yu cry out in pain. She covered her shoulders tightly and looked at Ruan Yaoyao with tears in her eyes. She looked like a poor girl who was ruthlessly bullied by a female devil and could not fight back.

Ruan Yaoyao stretched out her hand, which was trembling slightly, revealing a hint of uneasiness and uneasiness. She smiled apologetically and then waved the QR code on the phone screen.

Mi Yu shrank his neck timidly, carefully took out a few bills from his wallet, and respectfully presented them to Ruan Yaoyao with both hands.

Ruan Yaoyao's smile froze on her face in an instant, filled with astonishment and confusion.

I just want you to add me as your friend, but I didn't ask you to pay for the meal! I'm not collecting protection money! Also, Lin Yi, don't look at me, I really didn't bully her!

Facing Ruan Yaoyao's indifference, Mi Yu misunderstood her meaning and stuffed the entire wallet into Ruan Yaoyao's hands. Before Ruan Yaoyao could react, she immediately handed over her bag.

At this moment, Ruan Yaoyao's face became extremely gloomy.

Seeing that Mi Yu was so anxious that he almost cried, he even tried hard to hide the Poké Ball hanging around his waist behind him.

I really can’t give you this!

Ruan Yaoyao: “…”

Noticing that Lin Yi was about to stand up, Ruan Yaoyao took a deep breath, snatched Mi Yu's phone and started operating it.

Mi Yu looked as if he wanted to say something, but he covered his slightly aching shoulder and pouted his lips in grievance.

Ruan Yaoyao opened the WeChat account on Mi Yu's phone and her breath stopped when she saw the few contacts on it.

Ruan Yaoyao, who knew she had been misunderstood, pretended not to notice it, opened the scan button as if nothing had happened, and added her own WeChat.

"Here," Ruan Yaoyao handed the phone back.

Mi Yu took it carefully and looked at Ruan Yaoyaoyao weakly, somewhat confused about what she was doing.

Ruan Yaoyao pointed to her phone and typed a string of words into the chat box.

[Hello, it would be nice to meet you. My name is Ruan Yaoyao.]

Mi Yu was very surprised by the new friend on WeChat and replied quickly.

[Hello, my name is Mi Yu. What can I do for you? ]

[Nothing special, just want to ask. Why are you so concerned about Lin Yi? ]

【that…】

Mi Yu did not answer immediately, but asked.

[Excuse me, what is your relationship with Lin Yi? ]

[I am his girlfriend, what's wrong? ]

[No, nothing]

A look of loss and unnaturalness flashed across Mi Yu's face, and this emotion was captured by Ruan Yaoyao.

"Tsk."

Ruan Yaoyao pouted, feeling very upset and wanting to hit someone. If it was someone else, Ruan Yaoyao might have already punched him, shouting "How dare you steal my man!" But when she looked at the lovable deaf-mute girl in front of her, she couldn't bear it anymore.

After a little thought, Ruan Yaoyao bit her lip and asked

【Did you know him before? 】

[Yes, we have met.]

Mi Yu's eyes showed joy, and then dimmed.

[But after so much time, he seems to have forgotten me. ]

Ruan Yaoyao's heart suddenly shook, and the alarm bell rang instantly.

So many years have passed? We grew up together and have been inseparable. How could I not recognize you? Well, Lin Yi, I didn't expect you to be cheating on me!

Ruan Yaoyao clenched her teeth tightly, with sparks of anger flashing in her eyes, and glared at Lin Yi fiercely.

Lin Yi looked confused: "..."

What was going on? Why did Yaoyao suddenly get so angry? Was it because I had drunk two more glasses of wine and annoyed her? But I had her permission to drink at that time!

Looking at Ruan Yaoyao's angry face, Lin Yi felt very confused, but for a moment he didn't know how to respond.

Ruan Yaoyao snorted coldly and turned around to tell Mi Yu about this. At this moment, a cool breeze blew through the window into the house, lifting her hair.

"The wind in Haiquan Town is too strong, isn't it? Qinghai City is also close to the sea, but the wind isn't this strong."

Ruan Yaoyao tucked her messy hair behind her ears and complained. As the one closest to the window, Ruan Yaoyao walked to the window without hesitation.

“Crack—”

Suddenly, a dazzling white light flashed like lightning, stinging Ruan Yaoyao's eyes. She couldn't help but scream softly and quickly reached out to cover her eyes.

"What's wrong?" Lin Yi heard the voice and hurried over to ask with concern.

"Well... nothing, it seems like I was hit by something." Ruan Yaoyao answered helplessly while rubbing her eyes.

Lin Yi frowned slightly, walked to the window and looked out, but didn't find anything unusual. He shook his head and looked back.

"Don't rub your eyes with your hands." Lin Yi said softly, then reached out and gently pinched Ruan Yaoyao's small hand, "I have eye drops in my bag, I'll put two drops in for you."

"Oh." Ruan Yaoyao nodded obediently and did not refuse. She felt the warmth of Lin Yi's palm, and a warm feeling surged in her heart. She calmed down and stopped worrying about what happened just now.

Lin Yi turned around, closed the window, took Ruan Yaoyao's hand and prepared to leave. However, they did not notice that there was a figure hiding in a corner downstairs.

He was a man with obvious Western features, wearing an exquisite high-end suit, quietly watching everything happening in front of him. When he saw Lin Yi and Ruan Yaoyao leave, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing an elusive smile.

Taking out the photo from the old camera, he looked down at the photo he had just taken in his hand, with a mysterious light flashing in his eyes.

Afterwards, he carefully put the photo away, as if it had a special meaning to him. Then, the mysterious man quietly left and disappeared into the crowd...
