I Really Didn’t Want to Increase My Favorability!

Chapter 252

The ingredients are quite affordable: the pork belly is only 15 per serving, and the rest are also very cheap, with sesame cakes at 1 yuan each.

“Do you want something to drink?”

A few minutes later, Qin Yunhe looked at everyone and suddenly felt like having a drink.

“Don’t!”

Ji Yun and Bai Xiaoxiao both raised their arms. They still vividly remembered that night’s events.

“You can have some yourself, but you’re still driving, right?”

“Right, I almost forgot, but Su Qingwan can drive.”

“I don’t want to… It’s too far, and I’m not familiar with the route.”

So, Qin Yunhe could only helplessly shake her head and have hawthorn juice with everyone.

“By the way, it would be great if we could enjoy the hot spring while having barbecue,” Liu Qinnuan lazily got up from the bed.

“Are you dreaming? Get up and grill the meat yourself. It’s all self-service.”

Xu Lin looked at the hot spring pool and the grill, which were quite far apart.

“Grill it for me~ Am I not a guest?”

“I’m not good at grilling.”

“I think it tastes good.”

“It really doesn’t.”

“Try it and you’ll know.”

“You two stop arguing. Sister Liu Qinnuan, you want to eat barbecue while soaking in the hot spring?” Ji Yun interrupted them.

“I was just saying, don’t take it seriously,” Liu Qinnuan scratched her head awkwardly.

“Actually, it is possible to eat barbecue while soaking in the hot spring.”

Ji Yun immediately picked up the phone and called the front desk. Xu Lin and Liu Qinnuan were a bit puzzled.

A few minutes later, the service staff who had been harassed by Xu Lin—or rather, the one he intended to recruit—walked in.

“Do you want to open the sliding door here?”

“Yes, we want to see if we can eat while soaking in the hot spring.”

“That’s possible. You can move the grill to the door edge; you should be able to manage it while sitting in the pool.”

The staff understood Ji Yun’s intention, said a few words, then went over to open the side door. She also brought out an extension cord from the cabinet below.

In the end, everyone moved the grill to the door edge. The pool was just outside, and thanks to the door frame, it wouldn’t fall into the water.

The power cord ran from the back, which was relatively safe and wouldn’t get wet. They had truly achieved grilling while soaking in the hot spring.

“Sister Ji Yun, how did you think of this?”

“Because there were photos in the brochure showing hot pot by the hot spring, I thought barbecue should also work.”

“That’s really just for promotional purposes and specially staged. But it can be done. Enjoy your meal, I won’t disturb you further.”

The staff member smiled and slowly backed out, casting a slightly frightened glance at Xu Lin.

Xu Lin could only helplessly say, “I didn’t mean to flirt with her; I genuinely wanted to recruit her for business.”

“Stop looking. She’s gone.”

“Ugh, I really think it’s a waste for her to be a waitress; she’d be great as a store front desk.”

“Alright, alright, let’s eat!”

Qin Yunhe said this, took off her bathrobe, and headed straight for the hot spring.

Everyone was startled and immediately surrounded her, keeping her in the middle.

“Sister Qin, what are you doing? Xu Lin is still here!”

“I still have a bath towel inside.”

“You might accidentally drop it. Be careful.”

Ji Yun and the others felt that Sister Qin was too wild, not considering Xu Lin as an outsider at all.

But Qin Yunhe simply replied, “We’re all open and honest here, so what’s there to be afraid of?”

The several girls around were frozen in place, and Su Qingwan’s eyes widened in surprise.

Qin Yunhe, what do you mean by this?! Are you organizing a team fight or something?! Should I stay with my bestie or not?

Xu Lin was also a bit confused, not knowing what Qin Yunhe intended, and pretended to be puzzled.

Qin Yunhe continued, “Last time when Xu Lin and I were together dismantling that scam nest, we both got a bit injured. Because it was quite urgent, we didn’t pay much attention to gender differences. When the ambulance arrived, we were all placed together and had our coats removed, but we still had our underwear on.”

“So, are we being so honest with each other? Sister Qin, you can’t just undress directly. You go into the pool first,” Ji Yun said. The group sighed in relief and sent her into the hot spring.

“Xu Lin, turn your head away,” Ji Yun added.

“I want to enjoy the hot spring and eat barbecue too. Today, I’m treating you all. You can’t do this to me~”

“Turn away first.”

In the end, Xu Lin was forcibly turned away, and he heard the girls behind him rustling as they changed clothes.

“Sister Bai Xiaoxiao, you really should eat more. Your arms are too skinny.”

“I’ve eaten a lot already. My legs are even getting thicker.”

“Thicker? Your legs are so pretty! But Wanwan, have you gained weight recently?”

“No, still 99 pounds.”

“Feels like you’ve gained some useless fat.”

“Shut up, you haven’t even seen it.”

“What do I want to see?”

“What if I have kids in the future?”

“That’s enough.”

“Hey, I’m still here.” Xu Lin interjected, feeling increasingly embarrassed by their conversation.

“You can hear but not see, isn’t that perfect.”

“…”

Hearing Qin Yunhe’s mockery, Xu Lin felt like locking the door, activating his riding the wave technique, and dealing with all of them at once!

Though the consequence would be losing all favorability, getting reported, and ending up in jail.

“Alright.”

After two minutes, Bai Xiaoxiao’s voice came, and Xu Lin turned his head around. He saw that in the hot spring pool, the five beauties were wrapped in towels, leaning against the edge.

Qin Yunhe picked up two pieces of meat with chopsticks and placed them on the grill, immediately making a sizzling sound.

“I’ll grill the meat for you,” Xu Lin said as he took the chopsticks from Qin Yunhe and sat down on this side of the room.

Since he couldn’t get in the hot spring or watch the beauties, he figured it was better to grill meat. At least he could eat while working.

“Thanks, tool man Xu.”

“I’m just destined to be a tool man,” Xu Lin rolled his eyes at Su Qingwan and started grilling the meat.

After grilling for a while, Xu Lin was sweating.

The girls, who had been chatting, eating meat, and drinking cold beverages, watched Xu Lin work tirelessly without eating anything, and felt a bit guilty. They were there to have fun, and Xu Lin was working hard for them, carrying their bags, taking photos, and not enjoying much himself.

A few minutes later, Xu Lin had grilled a small plate of chicken wings. He looked up to serve them but saw the group huddled in a corner, whispering about something.

What are they up to? Whatever, just keep grilling the meat, maybe sneak a chicken wing…

Just as he picked up a chicken wing, he heard Qin Yunhe call out “Xu Lin,” startling him so much that he dropped the chicken wing onto the grill.

“Scared me, what’s up?”

“Come down.”

“Where should I go?” Xu Lin looked at Qin Yunhe in confusion and continued grilling the meat.

“After discussing among the sisters, we think you’re quite pitiful. We approve you coming down to eat meat and soak in the hot spring with the beauties.”

“Really?!” Xu Lin could hardly believe his ears.

Was he dreaming?!

“Finally, you have 10 seconds.”

“Wait a moment, I’ll go get a towel from over there.”

Xu Lin’s previously dejected expression turned excited in an instant as he quickly ran out!

Beauties! Hot spring!

The trip today wasn’t in vain!

The girls exchanged glances and all laughed.

“Are we being too soft-hearted?” Ji Yun asked, looking at Xu Lin’s back.

“Anyway, we’re all wearing towels, and Xu Lin is very honest. I trust him,”

“I trust Brother Xu Lin too,” Liu Qinnuan also said.

Only Su Qingwan rested her chin on her hand, not expecting her wish to soak in the hot spring with Xu Lin would come true in such a way.

Oh well~
