Chapter 29: A Sense of Familiarity part 1
At that moment, Mu Jiayi’s brain went numb. It took all his self-control to keep his expression from twisting.
He hadn’t taken this new streamer seriously at first. A streamer who suddenly appeared, using Ancient Blue Star cuisine as a gimmick, likely had someone backing them.
Through sheer luck, they must have obtained a special channel for Ancient Blue Star ingredients.
Since a new streamer could become popular through food, Mu Jiayi, who already had a fan base, would only become even more popular once he obtained these rare ingredients.
In the future, foodies like Elder Tang would be at his mercy.
But at this moment, he regretted it.
He deeply felt one thing: he had underestimated his opponent.
No wonder this person had been so agreeable from the start, agreeing to whatever he said. It turned out that from beginning to end, the other party had thoroughly investigated his background.
Not many people knew about what happened back then. The person behind this streamer must also be from a prominent family!
Mu Jiayi managed to control his facial expression, but Zong Ling couldn’t.
Especially the words “person in his heart” poked at his sore spot. His face instantly darkened.
Pursig his lips, his eyes turned cold, even showing a hint of embarrassment.
Ignoring Mu Jiayi beside him, Zong Ling abruptly stood up and actually left just like that.
Mu Jiayi was furious. He left in front of so many people? Leaving this mess for him?
If Zong Ling had cooperated a bit, even if the truth of the accident back then was revealed, they could still spin it as falling in love after getting engaged, making their public displays of affection over the years genuine.
But Zong Ling just left, directly confirming their fake relationship.
The people in the livestream were also shocked by Zong Ling’s action. Everyone was as excited as a running badger1, eager for the gossip.
Holy crap, holy crap, what else is there for Mu Jiayi to answer? He was stabbed in the back by the person next to him before he even opened his mouth.
Mu Jiayi seemed to just snap back to reality, not noticing Zong Ling’s anger from embarrassment after being poked in the heart when he left.
He even forced a gentle smile, barely maintaining his fake mask: “I didn’t expect Mr. Zong to know about something from so long ago. So Mr. Zong is also from a prominent family in the First Star? Speaking of which, Mr. Zong’s information is indeed accurate. Back then, Ah Ling did have someone else in his heart, but unfortunately, that person’s heart belonged to someone else and rejected Ah Ling. Ah Ling and I both got drunk because of broken hearts, which led to the accident. It just happened that we were both single and heartbroken at the time, plus Ah Ling is a responsible person, so our two families got engaged. However, after getting engaged, I found Ah Ling and I hit it off during our time together, and I’m very satisfied with this engagement.”
Mu Jiayi’s choice to admit it was well thought out.
His plan back then didn’t go as he wished. He was too confident, which led to not many people knowing about the incident when it happened, but it wasn’t nobody.
If he was slapped in the face again, his credibility would be completely gone.
Of course, he was also afraid that this Mr. Zong opposite him knew more things. He didn’t dare to gamble.
He was afraid of the other party, especially since the other party had blocked his chance to replace Truth with Dare first.
A one-hit kill. He took a big tumble this time.
Ning Yunyi looked at the camera with a faint smile. Even though it was a virtual cartoon character, Mu Jiayi felt the other party was mocking him.
Especially after listening, the other party spoke as if not caring much: “Oh? Is—that—so?”
The slow, deliberately prolonged ending note reached the peak of mockery.
Mu Jiayi clenched his hands tightly. Only when a stinging pain came from his palm did he force a smile: “I have something to do later, so that’s it for today.”
Without giving anyone a chance to react, he directly quit the livestream.
As soon as the screen went black on the other side, the crowd in the livestream suddenly woke up, crazy with excitement.
- [Holy crap! I didn’t expect that one day I would be able to eat first-hand big melons!]
- [Hahaha, dying of laughter. Did anyone see Mu Jiayi’s face twist for a moment when he saw Young Master Zong run away? He must be furious, cursing him for not being a man in his heart! But on the surface, he still has to praise the other party—responsible hhh family, who understands]
- [Oh my god, thinking about the plastic fiancé couple who obviously don’t love each other showing off their affection to the outside world for three years, that scene, I feel embarrassed for them]
Ning Yunyi didn’t participate in the carnival that followed. He quit Star Stream and went to call the cub to eat without being affected at all.
If Mu Jiayi didn’t dance in front of him, Ning Yunyi didn’t plan to take action for the time being. First, the First Star was too far away, and second, it was easy to alert the enemy.
But Mu Jiayi delivered himself to him and showed off his affection in front of him, stepping on the marriage obtained after plotting against the original body to show off. Could he tolerate this?
Since he delivered himself to the door, he would collect some interest first.
Ning Xiao Miao couldn’t wait any longer, but knowing his father was livestreaming, he waited obediently. Only the big cat and the small cat pressed their ears against the glass to listen to the movement inside.
When they heard the signal for the meal, they immediately opened the kitchen door, ran in da da, and started taking bowls and chopsticks.
The big cat was a beat slower. It tilted its head and its ears twitched. It didn’t know if it was an illusion just now, but it seemed to hear the voice of that unfilial eldest nephew?
It should have heard wrong, right? Leaving aside that Ning Yunyi didn’t know the eldest nephew, he was away all year round and saw the younger generation only a handful of times, so he really wasn’t familiar with the eldest nephew’s voice.
The big cat was quickly attracted by the aroma of the food. Ignoring everything else, it immediately joined the bowl-carrying queue.
The meal satisfied the two people and one cat, especially today’s carrots were very beautiful! Making the little meow cub reluctant to eat them.
Sure enough, he was ignorant before. He didn’t expect carrots to be so fragrant and could be plated so beautifully.
The big cat looked up from time to time. Fine, the small one eats exquisite plating, and it eats plating scraps. The main thing is an order between old and young, although it is reversed.
Ning Yunyi didn’t send a separate portion to An Dong today. Earlier, the Xun family’s healer arrived, and An Dong had greeted Ning Yunyi in advance.
At this moment, An Dong was staring excitedly at his wristband, swiping through the Star Network quickly, almost dying of laughter.
His sixth sense was indeed amazing. Although he hadn’t seen Mu Jiayi many times, every time he saw him, he felt strange when the other party smiled.
At first, he just heard about it to join in the fun. Who knew Mu Jiayi would overturn, and overturn in Mr. Zong’s hands.
Not only An Dong, but the entire Star Network went crazy. The heat almost made the Star Network crash.
There was no helping it. The pair of Mu Jiayi and the future heir of the Zong family had been high-profile since their engagement, especially Mu Jiayi’s identity as an S-rank healer, which almost every Star Network user had heard of.
The more high-profile the two showed their affection in these three years, the louder the face-slapping overturn this time.
Soon, the front rows of the Star Network hot topics were all about these two.
If it were before, Mu Jiayi would probably be laughing like crazy. He was naturally happy to enjoy this top-level treatment without spending money.
But now he couldn’t be happy.
