Just as Lao Yao was thinking about which flavor of instant noodles he should buy if Didi was angry and refused to cook for him, the door opened and Didi walked out after putting on her clothes.

“Didi… Didi! Well… I’m sorry for what happened just now. I didn’t do it on purpose!” Lao Yao stood up in a flurry and explained, “You guys usually lock the door, but when I knocked on the door just now, I realized that it wasn’t locked. I thought that something had happened, so I pushed the door open and entered…”

“It’s… it’s alright…” Didi’s small face had already turned red to the roots of her neck. She said to Lao Yao in a low voice, “I forgot to lock it… In addition, I was… bathing, so I didn’t hear you knock…”

“That’s great… It’s good that you understand!” Lao Yao was touched. It seemed like Didi wasn’t angry and was still so understanding. It seemed like he didn’t have to buy instant noodles for the time being…

“But… Mr. Landlord, why did you come down?” Didi asked curiously, “Didn’t you team up with Sister Lele and the rest to level up?”

“That…” Lao Yao spread his hands and said helplessly, “Looks like I won’t be able to level up with you guys in the future!”

“Huh? Why?” Didi was anxious. “Is it because Sister Lele doesn’t want you? Or is it because of the number of people in the team? No, I’ll talk to Sister Lele. At most, I’ll leave the team and let you take over!”

With that, she got up and wanted to go to Yang Yongle’s room.

Lao Yao was really touched this time. This kind girl was actually willing to quit the leveling team in the future just so that he could level up with the studio’s team?

Lao Yao grabbed Didi and sat her down on the sofa. He smiled and said, “Alright, Didi, it’s not what you think. I was the one who suggested training alone in the future. If I train alone, my speed will be faster!”

“Really?” Didi looked at Lao Yao doubtfully.

“It’s real! More real than pearls!” Lao Yao nodded with certainty.

“Oh, so that’s how it is…” Didi said in disappointment. Then, she realized that Lao Yao’s hands were still holding her shoulders and looking at him face-to-face. His posture was very flirtatious, causing Didi’s face to turn red again. She whispered shyly, “Mr. Landlord, can… can you let go of me first?”

“Oh, oh! Sorry!” Lao Yao quickly apologized and let go of her.

“Where are Sister Lele and the rest?” Didi asked Lao Yao.

“They’re still leveling up in the game!” Lao Yao scratched his head and said, “They haven’t used up their game time yet. I’m a little hungry, so I went offline to find something to eat.”

“I’ll prepare night snacks for you now!” Didi couldn’t help but stick out her tongue playfully as she remembered her duty.

“Alright, we’re in for a treat now!” Lao Yao beamed with joy. He smiled slyly. Wasn’t he just waiting for Didi to say this?

While she was busy in the kitchen, Didi recalled the awkward scene in the room earlier. Originally, she thought that Lao Yao and the studio sisters would only go offline after a while, so she wanted to take a shower before making night snacks for them. Who would have thought that Lao Yao would unexpectedly go offline early and even barge into her room…

I was too careless. I actually forgot to lock the room door! Didi’s face turned red. When she thought of the scene when Lao Yao saw her coming out of the bathroom, she felt an indescribable feeling all over her body. Was she shy? It didn’t seem like it was all…

Because of her momentary distraction, Didi almost messed up his supper. However, because she salvaged it in time, there was no problem. Soon, Didi came out with a large bowl of egg fried rice.

“Mr. Landlord, if you’re hungry, you can eat first!” Didi smiled and said, “I’ll make their portion after Sister Lele and the rest go offline!”

“Then I won’t stand on ceremony!” Lao Yao sniffed the fragrance of the Egg-Fried Rice and looked at the oily golden rice grains. Didi had made a simple bowl of Egg-Fried Rice like it was a work of art. Just looking at it had already stimulated his appetite. He immediately picked up the bowl, picked up the chopsticks, and started eating.

Didi rested her chin on her arm and sat beside the dining table. She smiled as she watched Lao Yao gobble down the rice.

Unlike the girls in the studio, because they were girls, Yang Yongle and the other sisters were more refined when they ate. It was very difficult for them to eat like Lao Yao. To Meng Di, who was a chef, Lao Yao’s eating manner was undoubtedly a huge affirmation of his culinary skills. Moreover, Lao Yao’s unpretentious eating manner indirectly displayed his straightforward personality.

This was what Meng Di’s delicate intuition told her as a girl. Therefore, Meng Di always had a special favorable impression of Lao Yao.

Of course, this favorable impression was still rather vague at the moment. It wasn’t like or dislike…

After Lao Yao put down the bowl reluctantly, he saw Meng Di smiling at him. That peaceful look made Lao Yao’s heart skip a beat. He quickly tried to find a topic to talk about. “Didi, do you know? I’ve always admired you. I really can’t imagine how a person can cook so much food for more than ten people! And the taste is so good!”

“What’s there to admire!” Meng Di laughed. “That’s just very difficult for you, but I’m already used to it. I don’t think it’s that difficult!”
