Chapter 1874: Why Favor One Over the Other

Xie Wanyi hurriedly reminded Li Xingyan: "Don't even think about it, some people; this was prepared for me by Tiantian, and I certainly won't share half of it!"

"Hmph, who cares!"

Li Xingyan suddenly felt that Xie Wanyi was very childish.

And he himself... was also a bit bored.

He didn't like doing boring things, so he got straight to the point: "Let's finish discussing the remaining content, and I'll leave immediately; I won't disturb the two of you."

Xie Wanyi had originally wanted to eat first.

After all, this was his girlfriend's thoughtful gesture.

It would be a shame if it got cold.

But considering that Li Xingyan was already coveting his lunch, Xie Wanyi had no choice but to satisfy his condition.

And then hurry to send him away!

Because they had the same goal, both of them worked very efficiently.

Moreover, the conversation went very smoothly, without a single wasted word.

However, just as Li Xingyan was preparing to leave, Jiang Motian smilingly asked him to stay.

While those two were talking about work, in a flash of insight, Jiang Motian suddenly understood her brother's little hidden thoughts!

Sigh, if her brother wanted to eat, he should have just said so; he didn't have to act so cryptically!

Jiang Motian felt very helpless.

But since he was her own brother, Jiang Motian could only grumble while helping him order a meal.

She then explained: "This food, it wasn't made by me, but bought on the way here. I felt that Brother would like it too, so just now, I sent a message to the shop to order a portion for you; let's eat together in a moment."

Once Li Xingyan heard that the food wasn't made by Jiang Motian herself, the sense of anticipation in his heart diminished by more than half.

But upon hearing that Jiang Motian had also ordered a meal for him...

He felt that, since it was his sister's good intention, he would reluctantly accept it.

Li Xingyan lifted his chin slightly and said with a touch of arrogance: "Actually, I'm not very hungry."

Just by his expression, anyone could tell he was being insincere.

But Jiang Motian didn't call him out, only chiming in: "Even if you're not hungry, you have to eat on time, otherwise your body won't be able to handle it."

No sooner had she finished speaking than someone knocked on the door.

Jiang Motian stood up and said excitedly: "That should be the delivery!"

Outside the door, someone had indeed come to deliver food.

Jiang Motian took it and couldn't wait to place it on the table as well.

Xie Wanyi assumed that what Jiang Motian had ordered for Li Xingyan was the same as his own.

But after opening the lid...

It was completely different!

Li Xingyan's delivery had such a rich variety!

Inside there was spiced beef, braised pork ribs, and such; it was extremely tempting!

Looking at his own again...

It really looked bland no matter how he looked at it!

Jiang Motian didn't yet know that her boyfriend already had little hidden thoughts.

She swallowed her saliva and prepared for everyone to start eating.

As a result...

"Tiantian, why is your brother's food so much better than mine?"

"What do you mean? The price points were clearly about the same."

"But he has big fish and meat!"

As soon as Jiang Motian heard this, she knew what Xie Wanyi was minding.

But this wasn't Jiang Motian favoring one over the other; she reminded him: "You are still taking medicine, and that medicine requires you to have a bland diet, have you forgotten?"

Xie Wanyi had already recovered.

However, Liu Xin'ai had asked Xie Wanyi to continue taking the medicine to consolidate the results.

And Xie Wanyi himself was very clear about the instructions for taking the medicine.

Now, hearing Jiang Motian's reminder, he was silent at first, then offered an assessment: "Watching others eat delicious food is very cruel."

Upon hearing this, Li Xingyan deliberately picked up a piece of pork rib.

Then he intentionally held it up to examine it and said: "It is indeed very cruel."

Seeing him like this, Xie Wanyi felt stifled.

He even warned him resentfully: "Stop showing off, be careful that the rib falls off!"

Whether or not Xie Wanyi had cast a curse, that piece of rib... actually fell onto the table.

In an instant, Li Xingyan was embarrassed.

At the same time, he realized he was doing something boring again!

Seriously, what is wrong with today!

Li Xingyan felt annoyed inside.

But on the surface, he pretended that nothing had happened.

He dealt with the rib that had fallen on the table and began to eat attentively.

And when Xie Wanyi saw him make a fool of himself, he felt a bit more balanced, gave a light huff, and also began to eat.

Between the three of them, there was a moment of peace.

But eating so quietly is so boring.

Jiang Motian rolled her eyes and found a topic: "This treasure of a restaurant was actually discovered by Yangyang and me last time."

As she spoke, Jiang Motian glanced at Li Xingyan without leaving a trace.

She was certain that Li Xingyan had heard Wei Yangyang's name.

But this did not affect the speed at which he ate.

He did not even pause; his movements remained elegant.

This reaction was somewhat beyond Jiang Motian's expectations.

She was not willing to gain nothing, so she prepared to observe a little more.

But such blatant observation was very dangerous.

To prevent Jiang Motian from exposing herself, Xie Wanyi spoke up to interrupt her: "Do you two often go looking for delicious restaurants?"

Jiang Motian's attention was pulled back by this question.

She answered very seriously: "It's not that we specifically look for them; it's just that that day, Yangyang was being given a hard time by an eccentric client and was in a bad mood, so I accompanied her to clear her head, and we stumbled upon it by chance."

This matter was not made up; it had actually happened.

That day, in order to coax Wei Yangyang, the two of them even drank beer.

This was the first time Xie Wanyi had heard Jiang Motian mention this, so he couldn't help but ask: "She ran into an eccentric client again?"

Again?

Jiang Motian thought for a moment before she recalled that she and Xie Wanyi had previously run into Wei Yangyang being bullied by a client.

And then, they had even stepped in to help solve it.

These memories made Jiang Motian sigh: "Yeah, Yangyang is unlucky enough to always run into things like this."

"Is there any way to avoid it?"

"Avoid it? Unless she changes her line of work, but it looks like Yangyang doesn't want to change yet."

"Actually, getting a promotion works too; as long as Wei Yangyang is promoted to management, she won't have to face eccentric clients."

"That... is also true."

Listening to this, Jiang Motian's eyes suddenly lit up, feeling she had found a very good solution.

But who knew that Li Xingyan, who had been silent all along, spoke up at this moment: "Management doesn't have to face eccentric people?"

Hmm...

This question stumped Jiang Motian.

What she usually dealt with was artistic creation, which didn't involve management.

She had absolutely no reference experience.

But fortunately, there was a boss right beside her!

Jiang Motian raised her head and looked at Xie Wanyi with a face full of seeking advice.

Xie Wanyi thought for a moment and replied: "In management, there is more use of the brain, and the pressure is also relatively greater."

"Use the brain? All work requires using the brain."

"I am referring to the use of the brain in terms of intrigue, social dealings, and overseeing the big picture."

Regarding what Xie Wanyi said, Jiang Motian felt it was very far away from Wei Yangyang.

She didn't know if Wei Yangyang could handle it.

However...

Jiang Motian's eyes suddenly became firm, and she said: "Growth requires facing some difficulties, but after maturing, one can learn ways to cope!"

"But with Wei Yangyang's brain, are you sure she can learn it and manage things clearly?"
