"How could that be? I've only had things like that a few times. Usually, it's just home-cooked meals. No matter how good something is, you can't eat it all the time. Simple food nourishes the body," Mianmian replied with a sincere expression.
This answer instantly won everyone over. They thought this young lady wasn't bad. Even though her family was wealthy, she wasn't arrogant. Instead, she was gentle and approachable, like a girl next door, making her seem friendly and endearing.
Zhao Mai had intended to make everyone dislike Mianmian more, but unexpectedly, she gained their favor instead. Zhao Mai was so angered she almost lost her temper and cursed right there, but she dared not. She was too afraid of Yun Buji. She knew too well that if she angered him, she might be kicked out of their little group.
So, she had to suppress her anger and remain silent for the moment. Mianmian happily ordered her favorite dishes and waited eagerly, looking forward to the meal.
Mianmian had eaten lamb skewers before, but not at a small shop like this. So, when the food arrived, she took one, took a bite, and was filled with its rich aroma. The meat sizzled with oil; it was exceptionally delicious.
Mianmian's eyes lit up as she ate.
"Try this, it's also very good," Yun Buji had quickly taken a piece of lamb rib for her and offered it to her.
At the same time, a pair of silver chopsticks was handed to her. Mianmian took the chopsticks, picked up the meat, and ate it. This was even more fragrant. The meat was a perfect balance of lean and fatty, truly a delicacy.
Mianmian ate with her cheeks puffed up, like a happy little hamster, constantly pulling on Yun Buji's sleeve, asking for this and that to eat. Yun Buji patiently prepared food for her, barely eating a few bites himself.
Watching this scene, everyone felt it was quite magical. They had always wondered what kind of woman could win over a man like Yun Ge. They had guessed it would be a strong woman, but never expected a beautiful, adorable girl.
They now deeply understood a certain term: "simp" or "devoted follower."
Their Yun Ge, who was usually so formidable, had now become a simp for a cute little girl!
"Why aren't you guys eating? These are all delicious." Mianmian's small mouth was shiny with oil, and her eyes were beautifully innocent and adorable, making her look pitiable.
"We're... watching a food vlog! Yun Ge, you're right, if you and the young lady started a live stream together, you'd definitely be famous. The way the young lady eats is so appetizing."
"Yes, yes, young lady, are you always this cute when you eat?"
"Huh? I just think it's really delicious! It's much tastier than anything I've eaten before!" Mianmian explained earnestly.
"Can you guys hurry up and eat, and stop spouting nonsense! If you want more, just order it. It's my treat today!" Yun Buji glared at them.
Everyone was speechless.
He looked at the little cutie with such gentleness, but at them, he was so fierce. This was such double standards.
However, they finally understood why Yun Ge, who usually found girls annoying, would suddenly dote on this little girl. It was because she was genuinely beautiful, genuinely cute, and genuinely sincere! It was impossible not to like her! Now, they were all starting to like this little sweetheart.
The waiter brought the wine, and Yun Buji immediately said, "Who told you to bring wine? We didn't order any."
Because Mianmian was there, Yun Buji didn't want the dining environment to be messy, so no smoking and no drinking were allowed!
