Xie Ji couldn't understand why Ji Shi was crying so bitterly over two used pacifiers.
It's probably related to his upbringing.
But that's not the point. The point is, they're about to go to work, but they still don't have breakfast.
So everyone had to decide to skip breakfast for the time being, go to their respective work areas to work, and come back for lunch.
The task of cooking naturally fell to Lu Xunji, who was originally in charge of the villa area.
After all, his job was relatively easier than others'.
Ji Shi felt utterly humiliated today. Unlike Ji Shi, he didn't linger with Xie Ji for a while before getting up and going to the paddy field. He changed into his work clothes, picked up his hoe, and left without saying a word.
Before leaving, Zhou Heyu came over and said goodbye to Xie Ji.
Shang Yan then followed Xie Ji directly to the breeding area.
"I had those pills you gave me sent to the testing agency yesterday, and the results should be available within three days." Shang Yan sat on a small stool, watching Xie Ji busily tidying up the breeding area. "If there are no problems, we can apply for a business license and start selling directly. If you agree, the Shang Group will be the distributor for these types of pills. Of course, if you want to create your own brand, the Shang Group will consider it an investment."
Xie Ji thought for a moment and then asked, "Which one do you think is better?"
Shang Yan paused for a moment, then pursed his lips. "From my perspective, I would naturally prefer the Shang Group to act as the agent."
Xie Ji said, "Okay."
Shang Yan was somewhat surprised. "You just listen to me like that?"
Xie Ji said, "Because I believe in you."
Shang Yan was silent for two seconds, then lowered his head, wrote something on the document, stood up, and said, "... I understand."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Little Black was finally able to climb out of Xie Ji's pocket and catch his breath. "You really trust Shang Yan that much? What if he swallows your money?"
Xie Ji lowered his head and mixed the feed. "The eldest son of the dignified Shang Group would disdain doing such things. It's good to have a powerful backer. With the Shang Group as our endorsement, the sales channels and prices of these pills will probably increase several times over."
"Can the Shang Group really let this go? Even if they double their money, they'll still take the lion's share." Little Black flicked its tongue. "Can you really tolerate this?"
Xie Ji curled his lips slightly but remained silent.
Little Black knew that Xie Ji was up to his old tricks again.
He's really gone mad, actually worrying about whether Xie Ji will suffer a loss?!
He's already being kind by not letting others suffer losses!
When Xie Ji finished his basic tasks in the breeding area and returned to the villa, Lu Xunji had already prepared a meal.
Zhou Heyu and Ji Shi changed their clothes and washed their hands, and were setting up a dining table in the yard.
To be honest, since we started the show, we haven't really had a proper meal together yet. Most of the time, we've just redeemed points from the points mall and eaten on our own.
Xie Ji first went to the door to check on the two little ones. Seeing that they were in good condition, he felt relieved and went to wash his hands to prepare for dinner.
Shang Yan brought out the dishes prepared in the kitchen in a continuous stream.
A large table of dishes, each with its own unique color, aroma, and flavor, was on Xie Ji's mind. He leaned over the table, gazing longingly at the food.
Ji Shi's heart softened at the Ji Shi, and he was about to step forward and pet the golden kitten when suddenly a figure blocked his view.
Lu Xunji casually tore apart disposable chopsticks, picked up a piece of squirrel-shaped mandarin fish, blew on it, and held it to Xie Ji's lips, whispering, "Want to try some?"
Xie Ji's eyes lit up, and he took the fish from Lu Xunji's hand and put it into his mouth.
The squirrel-shaped mandarin fish was exceptionally well-prepared; the fish meat was fresh, fragrant, and firm, with a sweet tomato aroma that instantly filled his mouth.
Lu Xunji was about to put his chopsticks away when Xie Ji grabbed his wrist. He stared pitifully at the chopsticks and whispered, "Brother, feed me one more bite, just one more bite."
Lu Xunji chuckled, handed Xie Ji a bowl, and used serving chopsticks to put a large piece of fish into the bowl before giving it to Xie Ji: "Be careful of the bones."
Xie Ji took the bowl and nodded quickly, "Brother, I'm the best at finding fault, don't worry!"
Lu Xunji: "..."
He casually rubbed Xie Ji's earlobe, then turned and went back to the kitchen.
Ji Shi quickly sat down next to Xie Ji, staring blankly at him.
As Xie Ji ate, he suddenly felt two burning gazes fixed on him.
Mu Yao sat opposite him, propping his chin up with his hand and watching him eat.
Xie Ji: "..."
Why does that look in his eyes make it seem like he tastes better than the squirrel-shaped mandarin fish?
Could it be...?
Xie Ji quickly looked away and slapped himself!
Nonsense! My squirrel-shaped mandarin fish is the most delicious thing in the world!
Damn it, you can't even concentrate on eating, you're hopeless!
Xie Ji ignored the two burning gazes and continued to eat with his head down!
[No one else has even touched their food, and Lu Xunji is still in the kitchen. How come he's already eating?]
[ Lu Xunji himself hasn't said anything, yet you're singing and dancing like this.]
[This is how our little darling is! Don't talk about him!]
Watching Xie Ji eat makes me so hungry, have you considered becoming a mukbang streamer?
