…
“You want crab roe buns, and you want ten of them?”
Hearing Chen Hao’s words, Ye Jia stared at him in disbelief.
The crab roe buns from the nearby bun shop cost 108 yuan each. They were so expensive that most people would grit their teeth, buy one just to taste it, and call it a day.
Yet Chen Hao actually said he wanted ten?
Had he gone crazy?
“You heard me right. I want ten.”
As Chen Hao spoke, he opened WeChat and transferred 1,100 yuan directly to Ye Jia. “Ten crab roe buns cost 1,080 yuan, and a cup of soy milk costs 4 yuan. You can keep the remaining 16 yuan as your errand fee.”
Ye Jia looked at Chen Hao with sympathy and said, “Chen Hao, it seems Pinru breaking up with you really hit you hard.”
Last night, he had eaten at a top-tier seafood buffet that cost 3,888 yuan per person. Now, he was spending another 1,100 yuan just on breakfast.
That was the spending level of a true tycoon.
As for Chen Hao, the only thing he had in common with a tycoon was the word “Hao” in his name.
Clearly, the breakup had hit him so hard that he had started spending recklessly to vent his emotions…
Ye Jia’s heart practically bled at the thought.
Damn it. If you’re going to waste money like this, why can’t you spend it on me instead?
Chen Hao impatiently waved his hand. “What nonsense are you imagining with that big chest and empty head of yours? Hurry up and go buy my crab roe buns.”
“Look at you! You’re even getting worked up. I obviously hit the nail on the head.”
Chen Hao glared at her. “Keep running your mouth and I’m going to start using my hands.”
…
Five minutes later, Ye Jia changed her clothes and went out to buy Chen Hao’s crab roe buns.
She had barely reached the ground floor when her phone rang.
As soon as she answered, Lin Pinru’s voice came through the phone. “Jiajia, after Chen Hao and I broke up yesterday, how has he been doing?”
“Not very well. He bought ten crab roe buns for breakfast this morning. Pinru, it looks like breaking up with him really dealt him a huge blow,” Ye Jia said as she walked.
“Really?”
On the other end of the phone, a smug smile appeared on Lin Pinru’s face.
Just as she had expected.
There was no way Chen Hao could recover from the pain of breaking up with her in such a short time.
The harder the breakup hit Chen Hao, the more it proved just how irresistible she, Lin Pinru, was.
“Yeah. Pinru, why don’t you call Chen Hao and comfort him a little?” Ye Jia genuinely felt that Chen Hao was rather pitiful.
Lin Pinru immediately replied, “I’m not going to comfort him. Since we’ve already broken up, we should make a clean break. Staying entangled with each other won’t be good for either of us. Besides, I’m afraid Han Yu might misunderstand.”
“All right…”
Ye Jia didn’t say anything more. The source of this chapter is g.com.
However, she suddenly remembered something and said, “Oh, right, Pinru. When you left yesterday, you forgot to take the two sets of pajamas you hung on the balcony. Do you want to come by and pick them up when you’re free, or should I bring them to you the next time we meet?”
“There’s no need to go through all that trouble, Jiajia. Just throw them away for me. They’re only two sets of pajamas.”
“All right.”
…
At 6:40 a.m., Ye Jia returned with the crab roe buns.
By then, Chen Hao had already finished washing up.
He immediately picked up a crab roe bun with his hand and took a bite.
The instant his teeth sank through it, his mouth was filled with rich crab roe and tender meat.
It tasted so incredible that Chen Hao almost wanted to cry out for his mother.
The wrapper was thin, the filling was generous, and the inside was packed with crab roe.
It was fucking delicious.
No wonder they charged 108 yuan for one.
In just two bites, Chen Hao finished an entire crab roe bun.
The rich fragrance of crab roe filled the air. Sitting opposite him, Ye Jia watched Chen Hao eat with such obvious enjoyment and couldn’t help swallowing hard.
The buckwheat steamed bun in her hand suddenly tasted like nothing.
She had never eaten such an expensive and fragrant crab roe bun in her entire life.
If this had been before last night, she would have simply reached over, grabbed one, and started eating.
However, after the lesson she’d learned yesterday, she could only stare longingly as Chen Hao enjoyed the delicious crab roe buns all by himself.
Chen Hao ate six crab roe buns in a row.
He was incredibly satisfied.
However, eating too many of these things at once really did become a little rich and greasy.
So Chen Hao quickly inserted a straw and began drinking Ye Jia’s soy milk.
No, wait.
The soy milk Ye Jia had bought.
Chen Hao looked at the remaining buns and asked, “Ye Jia, there are four crab roe buns left. Why aren’t you eating them? Don’t you like them?”
Ye Jia froze for a moment. “I can eat them?”
“Of course you can. Food is bought to be eaten.”
Even after hearing that, Ye Jia still didn’t reach for one. Instead, she stared at Chen Hao warily and asked, “Are you giving them to me, or do I have to pay for them myself?”
“Listen to yourself. They’re just a few buns. You really think I’d charge you for them? I’m not that stingy.”
Chen Hao spoke with an air of immense generosity. “Go ahead and eat. All four crab roe buns are yours.”
Only after hearing those words did Ye Jia finally lower her guard.
She reached out, picked up one of the crab roe buns she had been craving for ages, and eagerly took a bite.
Chen Hao wore a completely harmless smile as he asked, “Well? Is it good?”
Ye Jia’s eyes curved into happy crescents as satisfaction spread across her face.
It tasted so incredible that, just like Chen Hao earlier, she almost wanted to cry out for her mother.
Chen Hao smiled and said, “Glad you like it. In that case, you can treat me to crab roe buns tomorrow morning.”
The moment those words left his mouth, Ye Jia was so startled that she nearly dropped the half-eaten crab roe bun in her hand.
She glared at him furiously. “Chen Hao, how can you be so mean!”
[Ding! The host has gained 200 Emotional Points from Ye Jia. Current Emotional Points: 1,100!]
Ye Jia gritted her teeth and glared at Chen Hao. “I’m not eating anymore! I’ll even spit out what’s in my mouth and give it back to you!”
Seeing that Ye Jia really intended to spit out the crab roe bun in her mouth, Chen Hao reacted instantly. He reached over and covered her mouth with one hand while gently squeezing her throat with the other.
The next second, the crab roe bun in Ye Jia’s mouth slid straight down her throat.
“Chen Hao, you can’t bully people like this. Waaah…”
As Ye Jia spoke, grievance welled up inside her, and she looked ready to cry again.
Chen Hao hurriedly said, “Don’t cry, don’t cry. I was just teasing you. I won’t make you treat me to crab roe buns tomorrow.”
Ye Jia immediately asked, “What about the day after tomorrow?”
Clearly, she had learned from experience and wasn’t about to fall for his tricks again.
“You won’t have to treat me the day after tomorrow either. You’ll never have to treat me to crab roe buns. Happy now?”
“That’s more like it.”
Ye Jia wiped away her tears and happily resumed eating the crab roe bun in her hand.
Seeing her like this, Chen Hao couldn’t help smiling. “Ye Jia, I’m starting to realize that you’re actually pretty cute.”
“Hmph! And I’m starting to realize that you’re getting worse and worse!”
Ye Jia glared at Chen Hao indignantly.
She truly felt that this guy had changed far too much.
In the past, he hadn’t even dared to look her directly in the eyes.
Yet now, he dared to tease her however he pleased.
From last night until now, Chen Hao had sent her emotions on a roller coaster, constantly rising and falling.
If the old Chen Hao had been an honest and well-behaved guy, then the current Chen Hao was already showing signs of evolving into a playboy.
After finishing all four crab roe buns, Ye Jia glanced at the time, quickly grabbed her bag, and headed out.
She worked as a car salesperson.
In her line of work, weekends didn’t really exist.
The sales staff took turns arranging their days off instead.
And today, she still had to work.
