Chapter 975
Unless You Have a Guilty Heart
Zhao Yuntao is a very chivalrous person. When there are beautiful women around, he cares a lot about his image. He would rather associate himself with the beautiful women than with other people when he talks.
The reason Zhao Yuntao is linking Xu Bo'an and Bai Susu together in his conversation is because his intuition, based on his years of experience with women, tells him that Bai Susu likes Xu Bo'an.
Although he didn't know why Bai Susu was so passive and didn't express her feelings to Xu Bo'an, Zhao Yuntao was still very certain that Bai Susu liked Xu Bo'an.
That's why she dared to make the bet with Xu Bo'an back then. Although she lost, Bai Susu said she didn't like Xu Bo'an, but the way she looked at him every time couldn't fool Zhao Yuntao, a seasoned veteran of the martial arts world.
Zhao Yuntao implicitly considered Bai Susu as Xu Bo'an's partner, which is why he...
Unfortunately, although Zhao Yuntao was absolutely certain of this, he still lost the bet with Xu Bo'an in the end.
But perhaps this is fate, something beyond human control, and Zhao Yuntao could only be forced to accept this reality.
He looked at Xu Bo'an and said, "What I said is the truth. Maybe Dr. Bai actually wants to be alone with you. You called me here and I feel like a light bulb with several hundred watts of light, like I'm about to explode!"
Xu Bo'an looked at Zhao Yuntao with annoyance and said, "Stop talking nonsense and hurry up and do your job. Go to the kitchen to cook for me and Susu. Oh, right, you probably haven't eaten yet either. Make some for yourself while you're at it. Consider it a reward for you!"
Upon hearing Xu Bo'an's words, Zhao Yuntao muttered under his breath, "What era are we living in? Who would go hungry? You make it sound like I'm some kind of stray cat or dog. No, no, I'm not even as good as a stray cat or dog on the street. If a kind person happens to stray cat or dog on the street, they can get a free meal. But for me to eat a bowl of rice at your house, I have to work hard. And the labor I put in is worth much more than that bowl of rice!"
Hearing Zhao Yuntao mutter under his breath, Xu Bo'an said to him impatiently, "Hurry up and go, or you know what will happen!"
Zhao Yuntao looked at Xu Bo'an, grinning obsequiously, and said to him, "Brother, how about this? My cooking isn't very good. How about I order you some takeout? We'll order something high-end; it'll be much better than what I make!"
Xu Bo'an rolled his eyes at Zhao Yuntao and said, word by word, "Go cook! And the minimum requirement is three dishes and a soup!"
Upon hearing Xu Bo'an's words and seeing the terrifying look in Xu Bo'an's eyes, Zhao Yuntao turned around without saying a word, quickly went back to Xu Bo'an's kitchen, closed the door, and prepared to start cooking!
Xu Bo'an knew that Zhao Yuntao could cook, and he also knew that the guy had studied cooking before and was a very good cook. However, he stopped cooking much after he became rich. If Xu Bo'an hadn't known that Zhao Yuntao could cook, he wouldn't have made this bet with him!
Xu Bo'an believed that there was nothing wrong with his sexual orientation. He thought it was better to hire a delicate woman himself than to have a grown man as a full-time nanny. At least she would be pleasing to the eye!
Seeing Zhao Yuntao obediently go back to the kitchen to cook, Bai Susu looked at Xu Bo'an and asked curiously, "Why does Zhao Yuntao listen to you so much?"
Xu Bo'an smiled and said, "That's what he owes. He insisted on betting with me, and since he lost, he has to keep his promise!"
Upon hearing Xu Bo'an's words, Bai Susu smiled and said, "Usually when it comes to gambling, most people gamble with money or valuables. What did you gamble on? How can you have such an interesting way of gambling? This is the first time I've ever heard of it!" Since Bai Susu was involved in the bet between Xu Bo'an and Zhao Yuntao, Xu Bo'an couldn't tell her the details. He and Zhao Yuntao had simply gotten carried away with their conversation during the bet, and if he told Bai Susu, she might think he and Zhao Yuntao were disrespecting her behind her back.
After all, Bai Susu is a girl, so she's bound to think a bit more. If people misunderstand her, they'll definitely think she's some kind of unreliable person.
So Xu Bo'an was afraid that Bai Susu would overthink things if he told her, so he thought for a moment and said, "Actually, it's nothing. It was just a little joke between friends. I know that Zhao Yuntao is a very good cook, so I used this as a bargaining chip after he lost the bet!"
Bai Susu nodded after hearing Xu Bo'an's words and said, "Alright, you men are quite fun to be around!"
Xu Bo'an smiled and said, "It's alright, it's mainly because Zhao Yuntao is indeed quite humorous!"
After Xu Bo'an poured Bai Susu a cup of tea, the two watched TV and chatted over tea.
Forty minutes passed quickly. Zhao Yuntao had prepared three dishes and a soup in the kitchen and put them on the table. Then he opened the door and went to Bai Susu and Xu Bo'an to call them to eat.
Just then, the TV started showing a scene of lovers being intimate. Bai Susu and Xu Bo'an felt very uncomfortable after seeing this. After all, they were alone, and they were sitting so close together. This made the two single young people feel a little excited, and their expressions were very unnatural.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Yuntao quickly took advantage of the fact that Xu Bo'an and Bai Susu hadn't noticed him yet, and quietly walked behind them, wanting to prepare for a good show.
But after waiting for a long time, neither Xu Bo'an nor Bai Susu made any move. Moreover, Bai Susu was clearly moving away from Xu Bo'an. Seeing this scene, Zhao Yuntao couldn't help but clapp his hands in regret!
Although Xu Bo'an was very perceptive, he was completely unaware of Zhao Yuntao behind him because his family consisted entirely of his own.
Bai Susu was so embarrassed by the intimate scene between the man and woman on TV that she wanted to disappear into the ground. Her heart was pounding wildly, and she didn't even notice that Zhao Yuntao was already behind them.
Hearing the loud noise that suddenly came from behind them, the two turned around at the same time, and saw Zhao Yuntao's regretful expression.
Xu Bo'an looked at Zhao Yuntao and said, "What are you doing here again, kid? Are you trying to scare someone to death?!"
Zhao Yuntao rested his hands on the back of the sofa, chuckled, and looked at Xu Bo'an, saying, "Look at what you're saying. I'm not a ghost, what kind of ghost could I possibly be? Unless you have something to hide, that's why you're scared!" (End of Chapter)
