Chapter 1571: I Won’t Do It

After about ten minutes, Qi Lei finally came out of the kitchen in satisfaction, holding a bowl of fragrant noodles. He then went to the sofa and saw that Dongfang Liuyun, who was sitting next to him, had already finished a large bowl of egg noodles!

He was not mistaken!

There was nothing left in the bowl. Even the soup was finished, and she was already holding her tea while leaning against the sofa, watching an old-fashioned Charlie Chaplin comedy contentedly.

‘Is this woman a pig?’ Qi Lei was shocked deep down. It was such a big bowl that he might not even have been able to finish it all by himself, but unexpectedly, she had! Sure enough, one should never judge a book by its cover.

“You do have a good appetite,” he cleared his throat and said in a low voice when he saw her looking over at him.

“The vegetables were overcooked. Its texture was like pig feed,” she complained.

“Hmm, how come do you know so much about pig feed?” Qi Lei glanced at her and raised his handsome eyebrows.

“Are you implying that I’m a pig? I’m very sensitive when it comes to paronomasia, so don’t try to play word games with me.” Dongfang Liuyun gazed at him with a challenging stare.

“Innuendo is also not my style.” Qi Lei also glanced back at her, his aura unabated.

“I won’t believe you for a second. Anyway, I’ll go up and take a bath first.” With a grin, she grabbed her backpack with one hand and was about to head upstairs.

Before she could take another step, Qi Lei’s voice interrupted, “Aren’t you going to wash your bowl?”

Only God knew that he disliked doing the dishes the most.

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Liuyun froze for a second. She glanced at Qi Lei in slight shock and looked over at the empty bowl that she had placed aside. She then asked after a while, “Won’t you wash it?”

“Nope, I won’t do it!” Qi Lei refused directly, not showing the demeanor of a gentleman at all, but he felt that he could never pay attention to things like demeanor when living with a woman like Dongfang Liuyun!

Sure enough, it was as expected.

After listening to what he said, Dongfang Liuyun gave it a thought and replied, “I don’t want to wash it either. Well, let’s draw cards.”

Before he agreed to it, she had already taken out a deck of cards from her backpack and quickly spread them out before shuffling them. After a short while, she lay them on the table in front of him proficiently and said, “The one who gets the smaller card between the two will do the dishes, and this applies to all the dishwashing in the future.”

“Why should I be afraid? Out of all the games that you get to choose, still, you chose poker. You just dug your own grave!”

The corner of Qi Lei’s lips curved as he gave her a triumphant and wicked smile. He then took a big mouthful of noodles before he reached out to draw a card at random and flipped it over.

The ace of clubs!

Dongfang Liuyun frowned slightly, and she also flipped the card in her hand.

The three of diamonds!

‘F*ck!’ Dongfang Liuyun cursed secretly deep down but still had that unconcerned expression on her face. She gave him a pregnant glance, thought about it for a second, and said, “Mr. Qi, I must first declare that I’ve never used detergent when I do the dishes…”

“It’s okay. Anyway, you only need to wash them until they’re clean. Sit down and have a cup of tea first. I won’t eat that fast.” There was a flash of delight in his dim eyes and an arrogant smirk on the corners of his lips.

A bet was a bet, so Dongfang Liuyun conceded her defeat in the game opened-heartedly. She dropped her backpack and sat down again.

“Why didn’t you stop me?” she gave it a slight thought and asked, “Since you were just behind us.”

“I wanted to stop you originally, but when I thought about it, other people might not want you to bring your family members along. I’m a man that upholds my integrity, and there’s no need for me to go and look at other people’s displeased and unwilling faces.”

As he said that, he gave her a sideways glance, showing her his dignity, his pride, and his integrity in his gaze.

However, looking at his mischievous and triumphant expression, Dongfang Liuyun could not help but laugh out loud. “Well, I’ll bring you along the next time. Lan Xiu is a very good listener thus, he’s very easy to talk to, but he’s also a very stingy person. He seldom lets others take advantage of him. He has taken a lot of treasures from me without paying a single penny for them recently. So, you have to find a way to get them back for me in the future. Don’t hesitate whenever you get the chance to one-up him. By the way, he just added a limited-edition Porsche to his garage collection recently. I like it very much, and I’m thinking of how I can grab it from him.”

“I have a lot of cars. They’re all in the garage, and you can drive whichever you like directly. All the car keys are in the front drawer. His is just another inferior car. Mu Yuchen just lost another car to me not long ago, so you can use it if you like it. They’re all equipped with the highest configurations!” Qi Lei replied disdainfully, looking down on Lan Xiu’s status.

Mu Yuchen, Su Chen, and Zhou Zimo liked to play poker. Although Mu Yuchen’s card skills were naturally good, when it came to playing poker, he still had to bow down to Qi Lei as the latter did not just become a playboy for thirty years for nothing.

He was often found in places like Alaska and Macau, surrounded by all sorts of beauties. Speaking of which, he had been quite a scumbag back then.

Dongfang Liuyun shrugged and looked at him profoundly. “Your stance and attitude make you look like a parvenu from Shanxi. You don’t need to show off your style and status like that.”

“Am I showing off? I’ve always had style, so I don’t think I need to highlight it forcefully. Keeping a low profile is always the best way of showing off.” He gazed at her disapprovingly and then lowered his head to continue eating his noodles.

At this moment, Dongfang Liuyun was a little surprised. She raised her arm to rub her nose, and just when she was about to say something, Qi Lei suddenly turned his head and stared at her. “Have you taken your medicine?”

It was not difficult to sense faint concern in his indifferent tone, which made Dongfang Liuyun feel a slight warmth deep down. She then nodded. “Yeah, don’t worry. I’m not those squeamish little girls. I care about my own body. More than anybody else, I’m afraid of dying.”

“You say that as if I’m not afraid of dying,” Qi Lei replied. He thought about it as he looked at her silently, then asked, “Now, Mrs. Qi, when are you going to take me back to meet our parents?”

The topic turned so quickly that even the wise Miss Dongfang could not react to it. She exclaimed when Qi Lei asked and stared at him in a daze, “What?”

“Do we have to wait until after the Magpie Festival? It feels like we’re having an affair and nobody can know about us, but I heard that Father is an easy person to persuade.”

“Father? Mr. Qi, you seem to have gotten really deep into the play. Don’t worry. If you can’t pass my father’s test, it’ll be useless no matter how sweet you calling ‘Father’ sounds. Wait until the Magpie Festival. I’ll tell my family when the time comes. We’ll go back for dinner, and they should all be there. However, since you’re so shameless, it shouldn’t be difficult for you to deal with them.” Dongfang Liuyun smiled cheerfully.

“I have incredible confidence in my own charm,” Qi Lei squinted at her intensely and said calmly.

“Let’s wait and see.” Dongfang Liuyun shrugged as she stretched out her arm to take a tomato from his bowl and put it in her mouth.
