Chapter 6 Salty Lies! 3
"Hey Chi Weiwei, this place is a famous strange place in City A. Why did you bring me here for no reason?"
Yining looked at me dragging her towards the direction of life leaves and asked in confusion, looking at me with disgust .
"Why are you looking at me like that? I don't have any special needs. Besides, my thoughts and actions are normal, okay?"
Seriously, why are you looking at me like I'm crazy? Can you please talk properly?
"Okay, okay, but I don't understand anything. I heard that people here like to discuss strange issues." Yining looked at me with some concern. "But, Weiwei, what on earth are you doing here?"
"Nothing, I'm just curious about something, so I came to check out the situation."
Since I don't know Hua Likong's specific situation yet, I have no choice but to not reveal my original purpose for now.
Fortunately, Yining is not the kind of girl who will get to the bottom of things.
"Hi, hello, do you remember me?" A boy with delicate and beautiful features and sunny and handsome appearance suddenly appeared in front of me and asked me very seriously while looking at me.
This... isn't this the weird patient obsessed with the theory of cosmic miracles? It's really a narrow road for enemies to meet like this, but this is enough to prove that he often appears here.
"Hey, who are you? I...my memory is not very good." I said with a smile.
Even if I remember it now, I can't say I remember it. What if he finds out that the "100,000 Whys" doesn't contain the theory of cosmic miracles I mentioned? Wouldn't he cause trouble for me? It's really too dangerous, so playing dumb is the only way.
"I'm the one who loves the theory of cosmic miracles, table number 36, don't you remember me?" the boy kept asking.
"Weiwei, do you know each other?" Yining looked at me with a strange expression.
"Ahem, hehe, haha, I seem to remember a little bit, it's the miracle cosmology, right?" I said with a smile.
"It's the theory of cosmic miracles." The sunny boy corrected seriously.
"Yes, yes, that's the theory of cosmic miracles."
Phew... No wonder Ye Hu praised my acting skills. It seems that I really have potential.
"I didn't expect you to come here again today." The sunny boy said seriously, as if using his eyes to express his feeling of missing you after not seeing you for a long time.
"Yeah... I really didn't expect that..."
I smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to respond next.
"Huh? What is the theory of cosmic miracles?" Yining asked in confusion.
"Don't say anything for now, I'll tell you when we get back." I said with a smile, gritting my teeth.
"By the way, I still don't know your name. My name is Hua Jinghuan, what's yours?" The boy looked at me sincerely.
"My name is Chi Weiwei, and this is my friend Yining," I introduced.
"Oh, hello." Hua Jinghuan greeted politely.
"Hello, Hwa Kyung-hwan."
Yining responded with a smile , and at the same time, he came closer to me, nudged me twice with his elbow, and said softly in a voice that only the two of us could hear: "Hey, not bad, pretty handsome."
I curled my lips and whispered unhappily, "Stop it."
"Don't you think he looks a bit like Brother Likong?" Yining looked at Hua Jinghuan carefully and finally came to this wonderful conclusion.
If Yining hadn't said it, I wouldn't have thought so. But now that she said it, I really think there's some similarity between their eyebrows. And even their last names are the same. The world is really amazing.
"What are you talking about? Are you talking about me?" Hua Jinghuan asked curiously, seeming to realize that the whispering between Yining and I was because of him.
"Oh, no." I lied without blushing or beating my heart.
"I have booked a table, but I'm the only one here. You haven't reserved a seat yet, right? If you don't mind, come with me." Hua Jinghuan greeted enthusiastically.
"Okay." Yining actually agreed without my permission.
"Weiwei." Seeing that I didn't react, Hua Jinghuan called me.
“Okay…Okay.”
Can I really say no to someone in public?
But after sitting down, my mind was not on this table. Instead, I kept looking around, wanting to see if Hua Likong would show up. Maybe I could even meet his mixed-race friend.
I just want to know why Hua Likong has to come to my curry house. I don't want to be kept in the dark.
"Is there a theory of cosmic miracles in 100,000 Whys? How come I don't know about it?" Yining's voice suddenly rang out.
When I heard this, I couldn't help but be shocked.
What? What is Yining talking about?
"Of course, Hua Jinghuan studied it last time." I came to my senses in time and covered up my lie.
Oh my God, I even doubt whether bringing Yining out was a wise decision.
"Oh." Seeing me suddenly come out to explain, Yining finally wised up for once. He thought that I was in trouble and stopped asking strange questions.
"By the way, do you know Hua Likong? I feel like you two look alike, even you have the same last name." Yining chatted idly.
"Do you know him?" Hua Jinghuan asked, seeming a little surprised.
"Yes, he is our friend." Yining replied with a smile, but seeing Hua Jinghuan's reaction was a little strange, she smiled and asked, "Could it be that you know him too?"
"Yes, we are from the same family." Hua Jinghuan nodded seriously.
Oh my god, they are actually related!
"You? From the same family?" I asked curiously.
Hua Jinghuan replied, "Yes, that's right."
"Then do you know much about Hua Likong?"
This is really great news that came unexpectedly. I unexpectedly met Hua Jinghuan, who belongs to the same family as Hua Likong.
"Well, it's okay. I know most of his things." Hua Jinghuan said confidently.
"Can you tell me something about him?"
I know too little about Hua Likong, and I feel I need to understand Hua Likong's situation in all aspects.
Seeing that I was really interested in Hua Likong, Hua Jinghuan didn't know whether he was happy or disappointed. The expression on his face was very strange, as if he was a little conflicted and hesitant.
"If it's inconvenient to talk about it, forget it..." Seeing that Hua Jinghuan seemed a little embarrassed, I quickly waved my hand and said. I still didn't want to embarrass Hua Jinghuan about this matter.
"It's not inconvenient, it's just that you may not believe it when I say it." Hua Jinghuan frowned slightly, as if he didn't know where to start.
"It's okay, just go ahead and talk, I'm listening." I spoke quickly, my heart tightening inexplicably.
"Yes, go ahead, we are all listening." Yining also agreed with a smile.
"Well... okay, let me tell you." Hua Jinghuan said seriously, "In fact, we all belong to a mind-reading family that has almost disappeared."
"Wow! A family of mind-reading! Doesn't that mean you can easily read people's minds? That's so cool!" As soon as Hua Jinghuan finished speaking, Yining jumped up from his chair excitedly.
"Shh..." I looked at Yining, raised my right index finger and gently placed it on my lips, signaling her not to get excited.
Seeing this, Yining immediately sat down obediently.
"Not really. There are prerequisites for understanding people's minds." Hua Jinghuan explained seriously, "And if you are not careful when learning mind reading, you will be left with strange sequelae. Every heir of a mind reading family is like this."
"Then what are the prerequisites for understanding people's minds? I'm very curious. How about this, Hua Jinghuan, can you try to read what I'm thinking now?" Curious baby Yining kept urging.
"This..." Hua Jinghuan showed an embarrassed expression.
"Are you the only one in your family who can't read minds?" Seeing that Hua Jinghuan kept hesitating and unable to speak, Yining began to doubt that Hua Jinghuan couldn't read minds.
"Well...it's not that I can't. Didn't I just say it? There is a prerequisite for reading people's minds, and that prerequisite is that you must look carefully into the eyes of the person whose mind you are reading." Hua Jinghuan said in a low voice.
"Then you can just look directly into my eyes." Curious Yining was eager to get closer and let Hua Jinghuan read his mind.
"Well... ever since I was old enough to understand, I haven't dared to look into girls' eyes. So, my mind-reading ability is ineffective on girls." Hua Jinghuan's voice became less and less confident.
"Ah? Why is this happening?" Yining looked a little lost, like a deflated ball.
So, Hua Likong, who is also the descendant of a family with the ability to read minds, must also be able to read minds, but I never knew this. However, maybe Hua Likong is just a special case who can't read minds?
That’s what I thought to myself.
"But I really want to try it, I think it's super magical. Otherwise, Hua Jinghuan, can you read to me the psychology of male customers in Life Leaves? I won't be shy to look into their eyes, right?" Yining asked expectantly.
"Okay... okay. Although it is very impolite to snoop into other people's minds, since you all want to see it, then I will... give it a try, just once..." Hua Jinghuan pointed with his index finger.
"Yeah, okay." I nodded.
"Well, this male guest is wondering when he can meet a magical alien who can give him special superhuman powers." Hua Jinghuan looked into a man's eyes and said.
"puff!"
As soon as Hua Jinghuan finished speaking, Yining, who had just taken a sip of coffee, spat out the coffee in his mouth .
This... this is really weird!
"Cough, cough, cough, cough."
Yining started coughing because of Hua Jinghuan's words.
Nowadays, people's thoughts are so wild that they even imagine that aliens can give them special superhuman powers. They might as well pray to God to turn themselves into aliens.
Hua Jinghuan and Yining were chatting happily, but I was thinking about other things.
Can Hua Likong read minds?
I couldn't help but think of some previous scenes. Hua Likong seemed to understand the guests' psychology very well and could often guess what others were thinking. Maybe Hua Likong also had the ability to read minds.
