Chapter 477: Heading to the sea
Though Yu Dong was slightly offended by what Xiao Hua said, she didn’t say anything given that he was only saying those things about the pervert stalker… of course, it was her fault that she actually dared to kiss him when he was unconscious. So, there was nothing she could say, she finished preparing a bowl of barbecue pork belly and rice for Fang Chi while she cooked some shredded chicken porridge for Xiao Hua. Though the fever didn’t last for long, it wasn’t good for Xiao Hua to eat something so heavy right off the bat the second he woke up, so when she noticed that Xiao Hua’s hands were sneakily creeping inside Fang Chi’s bowl, she smacked the back of his hand with a pair of chopsticks and said, ” Don’t you even think about it, eat your chicken porridge, you haven’t eaten anything since the morning and even got a fever in the middle of the afternoon there is no need for you to upset your stomach by eating something like this.”
Xiao Hua pouted but in the end, he simply focussed his attention on the chicken porridge ignoring the light titter of Fang Chi. “I just wanted to taste a single piece, nothing more.”
” I know better than anyone what you mean when you say that you are just going to taste it,” Xiao Hua was a typical example of a modern-day girlfriend who would order a salad for the sake of maintaining her health but the second her lover’s food was served, she would ask for a bite and then another … and before her lover even understand what was going on half of his meal was gone. The same thing happened to Yu Dong several times in the bar, Xiao Hua would order something light and easy to digest for the sake of maintaining his tiny waist and since the two of them were trying things out, he often ate with her in the office. However, the guy was as sneaky as a thief, by the time she finished eating three bites, more than half of her meal would be gone..and when asked, he would just look at her with an extremely cute expression acting as if he would cry if she was to call him out on the fact that he ate half of her meal.
Xiao Hua’s cheeks flushed slightly but he didn’t say anything instead he started to attack the porridge with a newfound enthusiasm.
Seeing him gobble the porridge as if he was gobbling down her flesh instead of chicken’s, Yu Dong shook her head and turned to look at Fang Chi with a calm expression on her face as she said, ” I will be going to the sea and catch some more fishes to keep in stock, you can pack your bags and help the children to do so as well, I will be moving you all to the hideout by night.”
Xiao Hua was still chomping down on the porridge when he heard the words ‘pack your bags’ and ‘ hideout’ before he raised his head to look at Fang Chi and Yu Dong, seeing that their expression was serious, he couldn’t help but swallow the rice in one big gulp as he asked, ” Is…Are you moving because of me?”
Yu Dong and Fang Chi turned to look at him before Yu Dong smiled and shook her head, ” No, we aren’t moving because of you…I would have stopped and told you about it but I need to hurry before it starts raining, so I will leave Fang Chi to tell you about it.”
” Tell me about what?” questioned Xiao Hua but Yu Dong who was in a hurry simply walked past the corridor and left the house leaving Xiao Hua to turn around and look at Fang Chi as he repeated, ” Tell me about what?”
Fang Chi stared at the panicked expression on Xiao Hua’s face and picked a piece of juice boar belly before putting it in Xiao Hua’s bowl as he said, ” First calm down and listen to me carefully.”
” The sea seems to have turned really violent overnight,” as soon as Yu Dong stepped on the shore, she heard Mammy An say this to the other two mammies as they all looked at the rough waves that were rising and falling against the shore. The water level was still the same but one could see that the currents were a bit too strong, if one wasn’t careful enough they would be swollen by the ocean in just one big bite.
Yu Dong noticed that the net and the baits were sitting untouched on the shore and walked towards Mammy An, before raising her hand to pat the sturdy old woman. ” You couldn’t catch any fish?”
” I am afraid that it’s impossible to be caught in this case,” said Mammy An as her phoenix eyes narrowed while she looked at the ocean and its violent waves. ” The waves are strong and we were almost swept away by them fortunately we managed to get away from the disaster just on time.”
” I see,” Yu Dong crouched down as she picked up the net and started to walk towards the ocean, seeing her go, Mammy An hurriedly stopped her. ” Miss Yu, I know that you are worried about the food but you shouldn’t be this reckless, what will happen to master Fang and the other masters if something happened to you?”
Yu Dong patted Mammy An’s hand and calmly said, ” There is no need for you to worry about it, Mammy An… I know that a lot of people are relying on me so surely I wouldn’t do anything that will hurt me, just stay back and get those barrels here fill them up as soon as I fish the crabs out.”
After saying so, Yu Dong raised the net and threw it in the ocean, seeing her adamantly trying to catch the crabs there was nothing Mammy An could say after all Yu Dong was her boss but at the same time she couldn’t help but worry… the sea was so violent and the waves were almost crashing against her thighs, how in the world will Yu Dong catch crabs?”
However, when Yu Dong reeled in the net after ten minutes, Mammy An was so shocked that she almost dropped her jaw to the ground.
