"Shut up, my dear student aid leader..."
Luo Mo said helplessly, "If Guan Xing really became Theresa's sister, I would think it's ridiculous!"
To her, "under the moon" was merely a title, due to her complete lack of understanding of human society.
Moreover, her sister had indeed helped her a lot, so she agreed.
"Guanxing is different from Yuexia; she's a... important figure in the Huang Empire."
Unexpectedly, his foot was stepped on by the stargazer's embroidered shoes, so Luo Mo simply changed jobs.
Although the emperor is nothing here, since the other party is not willing, let it be.
Theresa remained silent. Although Luo Mo had phrased it tactfully, wasn't he looking down on her? Was he looking down on her?
Why am I being disliked even though I haven't done anything?
Besides, the little things you two are doing are way too obvious, aren't they?
Could it be that the other party has a secret identity?
In short, Theresa is currently experiencing a mix of emotions, and it's hard to imagine anyone disliking her.
But it still looks exactly like me.
She said, feeling inexplicably disheartened, "Then let's eat quickly, we've been waiting for you for a long time."
"Well then, I'll leave it to you all."
Guan Xing nodded his thanks and gracefully sat down next to Luo Mo. Yue Xia immediately sat down on the other side, watching the other's movements closely without giving an inch.
Guan Xing chuckled inwardly. To be like him was to conquer himself? What a pipe dream.
Gently pick up a piece of fish, chew it slowly, remove the bones one by one, and then elegantly put it into your warm mouth.
Even though the fish was clearly difficult to handle and had many bones, it still performed perfectly.
In terms of behavior alone, perhaps only Rita can emulate her, and she could be a match for her...
Even Kallen and Fu Hua are no match for them in this respect. With the passage of time, they won't make a fool of themselves, but to be this elegant requires the influence of their family background from a young age.
Theresa glared at the fish on the plate. To be honest, she usually wouldn't touch this troublesome stuff at all, but now she had no choice but to give it a try.
Learn it; it doesn't seem too difficult.
Under the moonlight... she barely managed to catch the fish, and as for the bones, she had no idea how to deal with them.
"Alright, Lord Moonlit Beauty, let me help you choose."
Rita, who happened to be beside Yuexia, chuckled softly and carefully began to prepare the fish for her. A hint of gratitude and relief appeared in Yuexia's eyes.
Because of Rita's previous accusations, Theresa deliberately kept her distance this time, and Rita said she couldn't help her.
However, as the leader of the Far East branch, Theresa had, even if she disliked socializing, had done it before and wouldn't be deterred by a small fishbone.
Is it just a process...?
After witnessing the graceful and agile way Stargazing ate, and Rita's elegant handling of the food, Luo Mo found it unbearable to watch Theresa's eating.
"Pah—" Theresa spat inwardly.
Why are there so many bones in this fish? It's different from the fish she's eaten before!
"Lady Theresa...this time the fish is a different variety, and it tastes even more delicious. As a result...I thought you wouldn't touch this dish."
Rita gave an awkward laugh; she really hadn't meant to.
Furthermore, in the original scenario, she would have been happy to have Theresa sit beside her and help with the tasks.
"Oh--"
Guan Xingyi let out a sneer; the other party was easier to deal with than she had thought.
It's okay if you don't know how, but it's important if you don't know how to utilize your strengths.
"It seems that Lord Stargazer is indeed from a wealthy and noble family, which makes Rita even more curious."
Rita's eyes, slightly glint in her side-swept bangs, were a completely different person from Lady Theresa.
"How about we make a deal? Don't call me 'Lord Stargazer' anymore..."
Stargazer remained silent, looking helplessly at Rita, and said, "I miss that title, but I don't want to hear it from someone else."
“Oh? That’s an interesting thing,”
Rita was taken aback, not expecting that even her honorific title would be disliked. It was a major setback in her maid career. "But I'm sorry..."
Guan Xing pursed his lips, his usual competitive spirit gone, replaced by a strange sadness in his eyes, which made Rita's heart tighten.
Maids are there to make guests feel more comfortable, not to insist on their own habits and cause them inconvenience.
She was silent for a few seconds, then smiled softly.
"Then, as you wish, let's go stargazing—"
"Well, thank you."
Stargazer nodded. He really couldn't maintain his composure when facing Rita, even when confronted by an enemy.
Meanwhile, Theresa used her chopsticks to mash the fish into tiny pieces, muttering under her breath, "That wretched woman, how wretched! How wretched! She actually looks down on me..."
She quickly understood; it was just fish and meat.
Just like if you're not good at eating fish, does that mean the other person is good at drinking bitter melon juice?
It's just that everyone's constitution is different, which is understandable.
Then Theresa grabbed a handful of bitter melon juice, glanced defiantly at Stargazer, took several sips, and gave him another defiant look.
Looking at the strange green liquid in the other person's bottle, Guan Xing sensed something was wrong.
But since the other side has sent a challenge, how can we possibly back down?
She stared at him for a moment, making sure he didn't show any signs of distress or that he was forcibly suppressing his emotions. Just to be on the safe side, she asked Luo Mo a question.
"Mr. Assassin... what is that?"
Bitter melon juice—
Luo Mo glanced at her and immediately said the name: Theresa drinks several bottles every day, so it's hard not to recognize her.
However, just because Theresa can drink it doesn't mean everyone else can.
"Wait, Stargazing, you can't drink this—"
Luo Mo quickly realized what was happening and hurriedly prepared to reach out and refuse.
"Hmph, it's just bitter melon juice, what's so difficult about that?"
The stargazer's competitive spirit was piqued, and he gave Theresa a look, indicating that she could do it too and give it another try!
Theresa tactfully handed her a bottle, but a mischievous smile played on her lips.
I even had my neighbor, an engineer, build me a machine to make my own bitter melon juice. It's a hundred times concentrated version, and compared to the previous one, I can actually taste the bitterness in this one.
She gradually became convinced of the concentration that suited her best—about ten times the normal concentration.
She had just missed it because she hadn't had it for two days, and she resisted the urge to drink it.
As for the other party... Hmph, it's not that she underestimated the other party, but people's constitutions really are different!
Sure enough, Guanxing only took a tentative sip—she was still very cautious.
Then I felt my stomach churning and my head spinning.
"Ugh~", she actually felt like gagging.
I gave up decisively.
Looking at Theresa with a serious gaze, he felt respect for her for the first time.
What kind of creature is that? How can it drink this?
Indeed, there are many talented people in the world, so I still need to be careful.
"uh-huh?"
Theresa looked at the other side triumphantly. Had she won a round?
"You're ruthless—"
He waved his feather fan as he gazed at the stars, seemingly unconcerned, but his fingers were clenched tightly.
Chapter 102 Stargazing and Check-in (+5/5)
But no matter what, it's just a meal.
Luo Mo and Karen focused on their meal, showing no intention of interfering with the battle on the field.
They all have a very clear understanding of themselves and don't get involved in things they shouldn't.
Moreover, both Theresa and Stargazer are clearly just having minor squabbles. If Destiny really breaks up with them, it would be a disaster out of the blue, turning a small matter into a big one.
In short, both sides ate in silence while glancing at the silent battle unfolding out of the corner of their eyes.
After a moment of carelessness while stargazing and swaying Theresa's goading, he decided to find a way to get revenge.
Theresa is now clearly adopting a cowardly policy, pretending not to see anything. The game is now a draw, and she has no other desires.
The opponent was far too strong; she had no idea where they came from, and they seemed to know everything about them.
Forget about making her her younger sister, I'd be happy to be her younger sister myself!
That way, I won't even have to worry about the academy anymore.
Theresa kept her head down and ate her rice, but when she caught a glimpse of the other person's provocative gaze out of the corner of her eye, she immediately looked away.
After thinking it over, the only thing I can be proud of besides bitter melon juice is my appetite.
"How about I prepare a banquet for everyone another day..."
Oh no, how come she can cook?
Theresa lowered her head even further. If she were to serve up only bitter melons, wouldn't that be too awful?
No, no, I'd rather compete with the other person in terms of eating capacity.
