Chapter 653 Veteran Barbecue
As soon as he heard this, Lin Mo knew he was in trouble. Sure enough, Zhao Yun seemed to have confirmed that he had just lied.

"No, listen to me, she really went to change her pants, we didn't," Lin Mo quickly explained.

Zhao Yun simply blushed and gave him a disdainful look, which immediately shut him up.

Because he could read shock, disgust, a look of utter disdain, and a hint of excitement in Zhao Yun's eyes.

You don't need to think to know what she's thinking right now.

But he could never say that Emperor Ruyan drank too much water.

After five minutes of silence in the living room, Liu Ruyan finally emerged from the bedroom, her face flushed.

Seeing the blush that hadn't completely faded from Liu Ruyan's face, Zhao Yun glared at Lin Mo again, her expression becoming incredibly varied.

After all, from her perspective, it was hard to imagine that Liu Ruyan, a cool and aloof goddess with a mature and sophisticated style, would do something unspeakable with her boyfriend in the living room during the day. This clearly shattered her worldview.

"Ahem, Yunyun, what brings you here?" Liu Ruyan asked somewhat guiltily, forcibly breaking the awkward silence.

Hearing this, Zhao Yun breathed a sigh of relief. In this situation, it was still a bit awkward for her to be with Lin Mo. Fortunately, Liu Ruyan came out.

"It's snowing outside. I happened to be off work today, so I came to see you. By the way, have you eaten yet?" Zhao Yun asked.

Upon hearing this, the two shook their heads.

"Not yet, but it'll be soon. If you haven't eaten yet, I'll have my brother cook something so we can eat together," Liu Ruyan said.

Anyway, the two of them were planning to have dinner after watching the movie, so this timing was just right.

There were still ingredients at home, enough for a lunch. With Lin Mo's cooking skills, it wouldn't be a problem. After all, ever since he learned to cook, his refrigerator had never been without chicken-related ingredients.

So even if it's not Wednesday, he won't find himself in the awkward situation of not knowing how to cook.

"No need, you two pack your things, put on your clothes and come with me. I'll take you out for something nice to eat, it's my treat today!" Zhao Yun said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the two were taken aback. Lin Mo even exclaimed, "Wow, what day is it today? You actually invited us to dinner? Is it your birthday?"

Suddenly inviting people to dinner on an ordinary day or holiday would surprise anyone. Although Zhao Yun was acquainted with them, they weren't that close.

If it were Miss Yuan, Chuanmei, or others who wanted to treat him to a meal, he wouldn't even ask questions; he would just go straight there. Being even a second late would be considered disrespectful to the host.

"No, it's just a rare day off, plus it's snowing outside, and it's Saturday. I thought you two would both be home, so I was planning to have dinner together," Zhao Yun said, shaking her head.

In response, Liu Ruyan chimed in, "Indeed, today is not Yunyun's birthday; her birthday has already passed."

"You mean going out for something nice to eat? What do you want to eat? It's still snowing outside. Let's just have something to eat at home. You've tried my brother's cooking before."

"Ahem, it seems she's never actually tried it before," Lin Mo explained from the side.

He initially wanted to treat her to a meal at his restaurant, but Zhao Yun and Jiang Feng couldn't go due to their status, and she didn't get to eat the food they brought back.

"Is that so? That's perfect, let's try my brother's cooking together. He can earn hundreds of thousands for a meal outside," Liu Ruyan continued.

It wasn't that she insisted Lin Mo cook or eat at home, but she always felt that Zhao Yun wasn't telling the truth.

Although her relationship with Lin Mo was already public and Zhao Yun believed it, she still had a natural wariness towards this person who had feelings for her boyfriend, a subconscious defensiveness.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Zhao Yun said somewhat embarrassedly, "Well, actually, there's something small I wanted Lin Mo to help me with!"

Lin Mo: "Help?" Liu Ruyan: "What is it?"

Zhao Yun: "Oh dear, don't ask yet. You two hurry up and get dressed and come with me. You'll know when we get there!"

After saying that, she pushed the two of them to change their clothes. Soon, Lin Mo and the other person changed into their outdoor clothes. It was snowing outside, so of course they had to dress warmly. Liu Ruyan even wore a black scarf, which made her look very elegant.

Lin Mo's outfit was much simpler; he wore ordinary cotton clothes and shoes, and put on a mask before going out.

Inside the elevator, Lin Mo was fixing her hair in front of the mirror on the innermost wall.

"Your hair's gotten a bit long," Lin Mo sighed softly.

His hair is currently medium-length, somewhat like a trainee's, but it's actually just that he hasn't had a haircut in a while.

He's not from Sichuan. He used to have short hair. Although it wasn't a village style, it looked clean and refreshing. He doesn't like long hair because it's hard to manage, and he can't go out without washing his hair after waking up. Short hair is much more convenient. He doesn't even need to wash it, and his hairstyle won't get messed up.

"No, this length is just right. We can trim the edges though. When you have time, I'll take you to get a haircut. I guarantee you'll look even more handsome then," Liu Ruyan said with a smile, linking her arm with his.

As a uniform enthusiast who loves new skins, Emperor Ruyan still hopes that Lin Mo can appear in front of her in more different looks.

"I still want to cut my hair short, this hair is a bit uncomfortable," Lin Mo said, scratching his hair.

In response, Liu Ruyan retorted, "It's the dead of winter, so cold, why cut your hair short? Grow it long!"

As they talked, the three of them got out of the elevator together. Lin Mo went to the trunk of his car and cut off the power to the Qin and Huang families again.

During this period, the "Creation of Heaven and Earth" board game box remained in the trunk of his car. Every time the power went out, the electronic devices in his car would also lose power. Fortunately, he didn't drive often, and he would voluntarily give up the car the day before he needed it. Therefore, the Qin and Huang families were mostly without power during this period.

The three of them got into Liu Ruyan's car, and soon the car drove out of the residential area. Liu Ruyan was driving, Zhao Yun was in the passenger seat, and Lin Mo was sitting in the back seat scrolling through his phone.

Soon, the car arrived at the West District, which is considered the old city of Jiangning. The buildings are older than those in other districts, and it is not as prosperous. Even the housing prices are the lowest among the urban areas, and it is now considered a suburb.

Just as Lin Mo was browsing Li Shiya's recent public opinion online, the car slowly came to a stop.

"We're here, this is it!" Zhao Yun said.

Hearing this, Lin Mo slowly raised his head. Directly opposite them was a small shop with a sign above the entrance that clearly read "Veteran Barbecue".

"Barbecue? Is this what you mean by 'eat something good'?" Liu Ruyan asked, somewhat speechless.

Besides, you can eat barbecue anywhere, why do you have to travel all the way to Xicheng District?

"Of course, let me tell you, this isn't just a simple barbecue, it's run by my dear comrade-in-arms!" Zhao Yun said with a smile, but there was something chilling about that smile.

Seeing this, Liu Ruyan said disdainfully, "So what? It's still barbecue, isn't it?"

"You've never been in the army, you wouldn't understand. I missed out on this guy when he was discharged, but this time I'm going to beat the crap out of him!" Zhao Yun said viciously.

Liu Ruyan: ? ? ?

Lin Mo: ? ? ?
"Wait a minute, didn't you just say this was a barbecue restaurant owned by your dear comrade-in-arms? Why did you hit him?"

"Heh~ Of course it's because he's a retired military police officer! I had to ask around for a long time to find out about him!" Zhao Yun said with a sinister smile, feeling a sense of satisfaction at the prospect of getting revenge.
