Three questions every day after traveling through a book: Has your character been ruined today?

Lu Yanli was not the only one speechless about the seating arrangement.

And there is Meng Yuan.

I just received a check from Lu Yanli in the afternoon and said that we would be strangers from now on, and I sat next to this person in the evening.

This is another test of my acting skills! Meng Yuan couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

Meng Yuan made up his mind to just concentrate on eating without saying a word.

Unfortunately, things never develop as Meng Yuan wishes.

Director Li came over quietly, patted Meng Yuan and Bai Lian on the shoulders, and asked them to be smarter.

Especially when it came to Meng Yuan, Director Li specifically reminded Meng Yuan to make sure Mr. Lu had a good meal later.

Meng Yuan: He’s so old, but he can’t eat by himself?

Director Li made this arrangement for his own selfish reasons.

There is no need to mention Meng Yuan's reputation in the entertainment industry. It should be easy for her to take care of a sponsor boss in such an occasion. With her by her side, he should not have to worry.

Bai Lian is the contestant that he admires most in this season's show. If he can become familiar to the big guys, his future in the entertainment industry will be easier.

Compared with the occasional laughter at other tables, the atmosphere at Meng Yuan's table was indeed a bit weird.

Because of Lu Yanli's presence, many contestants couldn't let go. Even when facing Xiangyou, whom they hadn't seen for a long time, they didn't dare to let go.

Before Lu Yanli transmigrated into the book, he attended many dinner parties, many of which required him to liven up the atmosphere.

After noticing the embarrassment and caution of the other contestants at the same table, Lu Yanli took the initiative to open the topic.

When everyone discovered that the legendary ruthless leader of the Lu Group was actually very approachable in private, they relaxed and started chatting and laughing.

The atmosphere at the table became much more relaxed.

Bai Lian felt a little uncomfortable when she saw Lu Yanli chatting with another contestant at the same table with a smile on his face.

She pursed her lips, picked up the chopsticks and reached for the boiled shrimp that was a little distance away from her.

Because the shrimp was a bit far away and difficult to pick up, Bai Lian tried several times but failed.

This dish was right in front of Lu Yanli.

When Lu Yanli was chatting with someone, he noticed that Bai Lian had tried several times and failed, so he took the serving chopsticks and picked up a shrimp and put it in Bai Lian's bowl.

"Thank you, Mr. Lu." Bai Lian's cheeks flushed with a flattered shyness.

Lu Yanli's action was just subconscious.

After I finished picking it up, I realized that it was the wrong time and the wrong person.

In order to avoid misunderstanding among the other contestants, Lu Yanli picked up another shrimp and put it in Meng Yuan's bowl.

“This shrimp is pretty good.”

Meng Yuan, who had been eating with his head down and had not joined in the conversation at the table, was stunned for a moment.

I don’t understand why Lu Yanli, who had agreed to be a stranger, suddenly did this.

He turned to look at Lu Yanli, his eyes full of questions: "What are you doing?"

"I saw you pinching it for a long time before." Lu Yanli's eyes were full of innocence.

Bring some water.

Lu Yanli didn't say the second half of the sentence.

"Come on, come on, eat too. I'll help you turn around."

After Lu Yanli finished speaking, he turned the shrimp towards the other students.

Thanks to Lu Yanli’s recommendation just now, after one round, the plate of boiled shrimps was empty.

Bai Lian was still staring at Lu Yanli's hand as he picked up some food for Meng Yuan, his heart filled with disbelief:

Brother Yanli not only picked up food for me, he also picked up food for Meng Yuan!

Isn't Brother Yan Li a germaphobe? Doesn't he dislike interacting with others?

They just stared at each other! There must be something fishy going on between them that I don't know about!

Bai Lian lowered her head and concealed her expression. Her hands under the table unconsciously clenched the corners of her skirt. After a few deep breaths, she adjusted herself and turned her gaze back to the dining table.

Bai Lian actually doesn't like eating shrimp, especially the kind that you have to peel with your hands.

Even with gloves on, your hands will still smell bad.

Just now, Bai Lian just couldn't stand Lu Yanli chatting with other girls.

I had no choice but to interrupt in this way.

In addition, Bai Lian thought that the shrimps that Brother Yan Li picked up were not only in her bowl, but also in Meng Yuan's bowl.

Bai Lian lost her appetite, and while Lu Yanli wasn't paying attention to her, she quickly picked up a few chopsticks of vegetables to cover the shrimps.

Just then, the pork ribs and lotus root soup came to his front.

Bai Lian took a clean bowl and filled it with lotus root soup.

"Mr. Lu, please drink the soup." Bai Lian was just about to put the lotus root soup in front of Lu Yanli.

It was stopped by Lu Yanli's other hand.

"Don't give it to him. He can't drink lotus root soup."

Meng Yuan realized he had spoken out of turn as soon as he finished speaking.

Maybe it was because the dishes on the table today were too affordable, or maybe it was because Lu Yanli’s action of helping him pick up the shrimp just now was too natural.

Meng Yuan seemed to be back in a trance, as if she had returned to the scene before she entered the book, when she went out to eat with her husband.

Meng Yuan’s husband Lu Yanli is allergic to lotus root, so when Bai Lian was holding a bowl of lotus root soup and preparing to hand it over.

Meng Yuan subconsciously chose to stop it.

After he said this, Meng Yuan reacted a little late.

Seeing the surprised expressions of the people at the table, Meng Yuan had no choice but to bite the bullet and say:

"I met Mr. Lu at a dinner party once before, and heard about it from the people at the same table."

"Is that so? But I remember seeing an interview before where he said Mr. Lu's favorite hometown dish is pork ribs and lotus root soup?" Bai Lian had an aggrieved expression as if he was trying to do good but accidentally got into trouble.

Looking at the bowl of lotus root soup that Bai Lian was holding in the air.

Lu Yanli suppressed his emotions, took the soup, and smiled to smooth things over:

"I appreciate Miss Meng and Miss Bai's care and concern for me."

"There are always a lot of rumors about me. Since we are talking about this today, I will dispel a rumor right here on the spot. I am not allergic to lotus root soup."

Lu Yanli smiled, lowered his head and drank a few sips of lotus root soup.

This also suppressed the complex emotions in his eyes.

Lu Yanli didn’t know whether the former domineering boss Lu Yanli really loved pork ribs and lotus root soup.

But he was really allergic to lotus roots before he traveled through the book.

How did Meng Yuan know about this?

A somewhat absurd guess emerged in Lu Yanli's mind.

After this little episode, the atmosphere at the dinner table became relaxed again under Lu Yanli's deliberate adjustment.

While chatting, Lu Yanli carefully observed Meng Yuan who was sitting on his right.

Okra just happened to turn in front of him.

Lu Yanli naturally used the serving chopsticks to pick up a piece of food for each of the people on his left and right.

She even smiled and joked: "Eat more to maintain your beauty."

Bai Lian on the left smiled at Lu Yanli and then finished eating.

Meng Yuan on the right said thank you, then pushed the okra aside with some disgust and continued eating the beef she had not finished.

Lu Yanli took out his phone and quietly sent a message to Gu Ze:

[Lu: Let me ask you something. Do you know Meng Yuan’s eating preferences? ]

[Handsome and wealthy Mr. Gu: The information should be there. I'll look for it.]

Gu Ze was very efficient and replied in a short while.

[Handsome and wealthy Mr. Gu: He loves to eat meat, especially shrimp; he doesn’t like to eat vegetables, especially okra]

[Handsome and wealthy Mr. Gu: Why are you asking this? ]

[Lu: Just asking]

Seeing Gu Ze’s reply, Lu Yanli couldn’t hide his disappointment.

After dinner, Lu Yanli wanted to find another opportunity to talk to Meng Yuan in person.

I didn't expect Meng Yuan to slip away and run faster than anyone else.

On the way back, Lu Yanli kept wondering if he had chosen the wrong person.

Because my wife mentioned before that there was a novel with the male and female protagonists having the same name as them.

Influenced by preconceived ideas, after Lu Yanli traveled through time and space into the book and became the male protagonist, he always thought that his wife must be the female protagonist.

But what if it’s not?

The heroine in this world has the same face as his wife.

But the second female lead has the exact same name as his wife!

Lu Yanli recalled his contact with Meng Yuan after coming to this world.

He tried hard to recall every detail, trying to find evidence that Meng Yuan was his wife.

I unexpectedly discovered that in addition to the other party mentioning that he couldn't drink lotus root soup at the dinner table today,

The perfume she used was her wife's favorite.

Her eating habits are the same as his wife's.

She likes to fold napkins when she is bored at the dinner table, just like her wife.

Although these habits may just happen to be the same as Meng Yuan in this world,

Although the fact that she was allergic to lotus root was something she had just heard by accident at the dinner table.

But since Lu Yanli has already planted the seeds of doubt, he must find out the truth.

Because there is one most important point.

Whenever Lu Yanli chatted with Meng Yuan these times, he always felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity and intimacy.

This is a feeling that Lu Yanli didn't have even when facing Bai Yueguang.

Lu Yanli tapped the armrest with his fingertips, and after thinking it over, he called Zhao Xing over:

"Zhao Xing, help me check Meng Yuan."

"Three minutes. I want all the information about this woman."
