Reborn in the 80s: Everyone Falls For Me-Chapter 723: (3 Updates)

"I, I’m not nervous," Xu Sisi murmured in a low voice, simply feeling embarrassed and awkward.

"Let’s, let’s hurry and order," Xu Sisi said.

Jin Ruiyang nodded and pushed the menu in front of her, "What would you like to eat?"

Xu Sisi stretched out her hand and randomly pointed at two dishes, "This one, this one."

Jin Ruiyang glanced at the menu, "Are you sure?"

"Yeah, of course, these are my favorite, let’s have two servings of each."

Xu Sisi, afraid that Jin Ruiyang would see her awkwardness, deliberately emphasized the number of servings to show that she didn’t just choose randomly and that she truly loved these dishes.

Jin Ruiyang furrowed his brows but still ordered the dishes according to her preference.

In addition, he ordered two dishes that were easy to eat and tasted good.

When the two servings of pig’s feet and two servings of chicken feet were placed in front of her, Xu Sisi realized what she had carelessly ordered.

Oh no, why did I order this stuff?

Do I still want to keep up appearances later?

Xu Sisi’s eyes roamed desperately over the four plates of meat, her gaze shimmering with a tragically comic desire to cry.

Apart from these four meat dishes, there was also a dish of stir-fried green peppers with eggs and a dish of stir-fried baby bok choy.

Jin Ruiyang very gentlemanly cleaned the bowl and chopsticks before handing them to Xu Sisi.

Xu Sisi hesitated and then looked at Jin Ruiyang, pursing her lips, but quickly lowered her head when he looked her way.

The dinner table was unusually quiet; this didn’t feel like a date between a couple, but rather like a formal meal.

Because Xu Sisi was just focused on gnawing the pig’s feet.

Xu Sisi thought miserably that she had to finish what she ordered, no matter what.

Gnawing on pig’s feet also meant she had to spit out the bones, and Xu Sisi was terrified that the bones wouldn’t be clean enough and would affect Jin Ruiyang’s appetite.

So she gnawed with great focus, and when she finally spat out the bones, they were shiny and spotless, nearly reflective enough to cast a reflection.

The bone landed on the plate with a crisp "ding."

Xu Sisi paused in her motion, instinctively looking at Jin Ruiyang.

Her face gradually turned red.

Jin Ruiyang had been watching her the entire time, not even moving his chopsticks.

Seeing this, Jin Ruiyang sincerely complimented her.

"You’ve gnawed the bones very clean."

Xu Sisi: "..."

Quietly blushing, she hummed a soft, "Thank you."

One boldly praised, the other bravely accepted.

Xu Sisi’s face was thoroughly flushed, and she suddenly felt an urge to give up all pretense; she couldn’t go on like this, as it wouldn’t be worth it to delay the date over an egg.

After some internal persuasion, Xu Sisi suddenly looked up, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Jin Ruiyang, appearing incredibly enthusiastic.

"Brother Ruiyang, these pig’s feet are really delicious, you should try some."

She eagerly placed a pig’s foot in his bowl.

Jin Ruiyang rested a hand on the table, his gaze falling on her lips that had turned red from gnawing on the pig’s feet, his look profound.

"They do look quite tasty."

Pleased by the praise, Xu Sisi smiled like a child given candy, her face beaming with sunshine.

"They really are delicious."

The young girl energetically loaded his bowl with one pig’s foot after another, almost filling it up.

Compared to her previous awkwardness, she now seemed much more lively.

Jin Ruiyang liked her carefree smile, as if no matter what happened, she could always remain positive and optimistic.

"Xiao Sisi..." he suddenly held the hand that Xu Sisi was using to wield her chopsticks.

Xu Sisi paused, "Hm? What’s wrong..." Brother Ruiyang!

She was forced to tilt her head back, while Jin Ruiyang held on to her wrist with one hand and supported the back of her head with the other.
