“...... What are you going to do if I say I've eaten it?"

"Even if you think about it with your hair, you know that it must be a lie. You looked like you had just woken up, and when I walked into the Technology Development Bureau, I saw a takeout menu from the canteen on your adjutant's seat————— the kid looked serious, not like someone who could order takeout. That's for you, right? ”

"Jokes. Do I need to read it every time to memorize something of that magnitude?"

"If it's under normal circumstances, no. However, the dining hall in the main building of the military headquarters happened to change the menu a day ago———— I heard about it from Sister Ruoxi. She complained that the new menu was not the right taste, but she didn't want to use her status as a military marshal to force the cook to get a new one, as if she was pestering Sister Zi to make her lunch box. I bet you've never heard of changing menus, right? After all, Sister Yonglin, you are not a person who would pay attention to such trivial things from the beginning. ”

“......”

Because Ji Yuehua's guess was basically completely correct, Bayi Yonglin couldn't help but be speechless for a while.

That's right, she really hadn't heard of the change of dining hall to restaurant.

Although now she can get up from bed at a fixed time even if she doesn't deliberately run over to wake her up, no longer refusing to contact others, she has also mastered a certain degree of interpersonal communication skills, at least in the daily communication with her subordinates, in all senses, she has improved dozens of times compared to her who was assisted by Ji Yuehua back then, but there are also some places where ———— are deeply rooted, and nothing has changed so far.

Not declining contact with others does not mean that you enjoy contact with others. Except for the new little lieutenant and the original friends such as Yakumo Zi, the treatment of others is still the same as if they are thousands of miles away, and even if they can chat, it is only limited to work-related topics. As for some of the things she considered to be trivial, such as what coffee beans to use for coffee, what kind of pen to use for paperwork, and so on, they were never on her list of thoughts, as in the past.

The coffee beans were delivered by a married ex-boss.

The stationery on the table was purchased by her current deputy.

In order to make sure that there was more than one choice when eating, she wrote down the contents of the take-out menu before. However, what kind of changes have happened in the canteen is not within her scope of attention.

The person he likes can see through his own living habits, although he understands that it is just the accumulation of experience, and Ji Yuehua himself has perfectly inherited the attribute of "insight" from his two sisters———— which should explain the result of the ———— of the master and the apprentice, but after all, Bayi Yonglin is also a woman, and she still has a little longing for this kind of spiritual feeling.

What's more, even though this is a heartwarming trip to buy gifts for your rival, if you just look at the content, it looks like an ordinary date. Moreover, unlike when I traveled with Ji Yuehua's three sisters and brothers many years ago, this time it was 100% and only two people went shopping together.

"Well, you win."

...... Thinking of this, the resentment in my heart has dissipated a lot unconsciously.

Putting aside the purpose of this trip, just as Ji Yuehua hadn't been here for a long time, the last time Bayi Yonglin herself came to the "Qinglan" area was almost seven or eight years ago.

At that time, Yakumo Zi and the others still regarded her as Ji Yuehua's bride candidate, and after using themselves as a cover many times to ask Ji Yuehua to ask her out, they finally had a whim one day and said that they wanted to bring her here to visit their hometown.

The farmland on the outskirts was mostly small wooden houses and small communities of brick houses, all of which have been lost to history over time.

It's not that she misses the way this place used to be, after all, she has only been here once, and what is engraved in her mind is only the level of cognition of "where Ji Yuehua and those two stupid sisters used to live".

She is not a person who pays attention to the changes in the streets, and she spends most of her life at work, squatting at home and working as a workaholic who never goes out, and the benchmark for judging whether she is interested depends on who calls her out, so ———— on the other hand, as long as the person she likes invites her out, no matter where she goes, it can bring her freshness.

Bayi Yonglin casually looked at the shops on both sides of the street, and said softly, "I really haven't had lunch yet...... So, where are you going to take me?"

"I've heard that there are a couple of good restaurants around here. Let's just take it as a return gift for you to accompany me out to pick out a gift, and I'll treat you this time. ”

The answer was more refreshing than expected.

Although Ji Yuehua's tone is quite natural, and this is indeed the right time in terms of topic, but ———— because it is too natural, it makes people feel a little wrong.

Although it doesn't look like it's been rehearsed dozens of times beforehand, if you want to describe it, it looks like it was premeditated.

Bayi Yonglin bent her eyebrows in surprise, looked at Ji Yuehua with half-open eyes and said.

"I'm obviously a person who doesn't have a job, but I talk about the treat very happily. Did you plan to do that from the beginning?"

"Anyway, my savings won't be used up for about ten years———— what you're freezing is the access to my old "Mythical Storehouse", not my bank ledger. If you're like Master Hua Yizui and Master Hua Zhaoye, you have to drink several times more wine than you eat every time you eat, maybe I really have to think about it. However, since it is not an extreme case, I still have the ability to invite women to a meal. Besides———— otherwise, what should I use to express my gratitude? There are no shops selling flasks nearby?"

“...... Do you really want me to smash that thing in your face?"

I didn't expect that Ji Yuehua would use the words she had said to turn against the army, compared to the doubts that just popped up in her head, it was the earlier unhappiness that resurfaced first, making her so angry that she couldn't speak.

At that moment, Bayi Yonglin accelerated her speed of walking forward without looking back after giving Ji Yuehua a blank look, as if she wanted to throw the latter away.

It's just that what she didn't notice as she just walked forward was ......

“......”

Behind her, Ji Yuehua quietly breathed a sigh of relief. After calming down the nervousness, he quickly caught up with his former boss who was walking in front. 21010
