The Fake Daughter Is Not Innocent

Chapter 115: Can You Eat Spicy Food?

Xiao Ying brought Zhou Yao out of the school and went straight to the barbecue stall by an alleyway.

At this time, there were many university students buying food outside.

Although these roadside stalls did not look high-class, they had a taste that high-class hotels did not have.

Xiao Ying ordered a bunch of skewers and a large bottle of beer.

Zhou Yao just accompanied her quietly. He supported anything she did.

After the skewers were served, a thick layer of sriracha was drizzled over them.

Xiao Ying grinned and took a bite. “Zhou Yao, can you eat spicy food?”

Zhou Yao’s expression did not change as he nodded and said, “I can eat a little.”

Xiao Ying watched his unchanging expression, disappointed.

Seeing that he was about to take the skewers, Xiao Ying hurriedly stopped him and said, “Forget it, the ones I ordered for you are in the back. These are too spicy, you definitely won’t be able to eat them.”

Zhou Yao’s gaze fell on Xiao Ying’s hand, which was on top of his.

At this moment, Xiao Ying had already withdrawn her hand.

Zhou Yao gently rubbed the residual warmth on his hand and said, “It’s okay. I can eat it.”

Hearing this, Xiao Ying watched as he placed the skewer in his mouth and ate it with a normal expression.

Xiao Ying looked at Zhou Yao thoughtfully. Then, she said happily, “I didn’t expect you to like spicy food so much too. This is great! We can eat together in the future.”

She was addicted to spicy food, and no one around her was willing to eat with her.

Zhou Yao’s expression faltered as he said, “Yes.”

After that, Xiao Ying looked at Zhou Yao, whose expression didn’t change at all even after finishing a large plate of extra spicy grilled meat. She was filled with admiration.

She silently picked up another plate of grilled meat without any chili and continued eating.

Her mouth was already red and swollen from the spiciness.

After finishing their meal, they returned to school.

Xiao Ying’s mouth was red and swollen from the spiciness. Seeing that Zhou Yao’s did not change at all, she was indignant.

He had clearly eaten more than her.

Xiao Ying asked curiously, “Have you always been so good at eating spicy food?”

Zhou Yao pondered for a moment and said, “No. When I was young, there was a period of time when I had nothing to eat besides chili. Afterward, I became tolerant of the spice.”

Xiao Ying paused. She had not expected such an answer.

Zhou Yao’s expression was indifferent, as if he did not care about this matter.

However, Xiao Ying could not be indifferent. She had already drunk some beer and was unable to control her emotions. She suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Zhou Yao looked at her, puzzled.

With reddened eyes, Xiao Ying apologized, “I’m sorry.”

Zhou Yao was stunned, a bit helpless.

Xiao Ying had already calmed down. She suddenly patted his shoulder and said, “Young man, your days will only get better and better.”

Despite the words being cliche, Zhou Yao nodded seriously.

Xiao Ying sighed in her heart. What an obedient child.

In her heart, she was getting more and more satisfied with Zhou Yao.

Zhou Yao insisted on escorting Xiao Ying to the entrance of the apartment complex. She could not persuade him otherwise and only instructed him to be careful when he returned.

The two of them agreed to go to the zoo tomorrow.

She turned around and saw Cheng Yang standing in the shadows. For some reason, she felt a little guilty.

Cheng Yang’s expression was unreadable. He looked in the direction Zhou Yao had left in and held Xiao Ying’s hand. “Let’s go home.”

Feeling the force of the hand holding hers, Xiao Ying knew that he was not as calm as he seemed.

She felt a little uneasy.

The moment they reached home, Cheng Yang leaned over and whispered in her ear, “Didn’t I say not to get too close to random men?”

Xiao Ying felt a little uncomfortable. She struggled for a moment and said, “Cheng Yang, are you crazy? Let go of me.”

Cheng Yang kissed her, and the darkness in his heart erupted.

God knew how much he wanted to rush out and make that man disappear after seeing them earlier.

Xiao Ying could only be forced to endure it.

Clap! Xiao Ying, who had just escaped, slapped him in the face.

The atmosphere froze.

The corners of Xiao Ying’s mouth curled up as she said coldly, “Let’s not see each other for now. You’d best calm down.”

She returned to her room with red-rimmed eyes. She hated being forced.

Cheng Yang’s body stayed rooted at the door. After a long while, he finally left.

…

At this time, Zhou Yao had already returned to the dorm. His roommate saw Zhou Yao return and greeted him.

Suddenly, he felt that something was wrong and asked, “Zhou Yao, are you feeling unwell? Your face is so pale.”

Enduring the discomfort from his stomach, Zhou Yao’s face turned even paler, but his expression was very calm.

He had already gotten used to this kind of pain.

He shook his head slowly and lay down on the bed.

The next morning, Zhou Yao’s roommate saw that he had woken up early and that his expression had returned to normal, so he was relieved.

Yesterday, he had almost called the school doctor when he saw that Zhou Yao’s face was as white as paper.

Zhou Yao was not surprised by the change in his body. He could digest anything he ate and return to normal the next day.

Perhaps this was why he had survived.

He went out and waited by Xiao Ying’s apartment complex.

There was still half an hour until their agreed meeting time.

He waited patiently and did not disturb Xiao Ying.

Xiao Ying got up and looked at the empty apartment. She didn’t know if she was sad or relieved.

She went downstairs according to the agreed time and saw Zhou Yao waiting.
