Chapter 2164

Everyone was brothers; they had agreed to share joys and hardships together.

If no one had eaten, that would be fine; they could just endure it.

But damn it, Qinlong, Until Hong Zun, Lin Potian, and Qin Shanhai—those four had truly enjoyed it.

It was originally planned by everyone together, but now look—you guys finished eating, and when it got to us, there was nothing left?

How could that work? If we eat, we eat together. You guys ate, so we have to eat too.

They were determined to eat this hot meal by any means necessary.

Ye Changqing understood one principle: it's not the thief stealing that you fear, but the thief thinking about it.

They couldn't keep defending against this forever; one day, they wouldn't be able to stop it.

"Should I go talk to Senior Brother and the others?"

Fairy Baihua, seeing Ye Changqing lost in thought, asked with concern.

However, Ye Changqing shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"It's useless. This meal probably can't be avoided."

If talking were useful, Ye Changqing would have done it long ago. He himself felt it was impossible; there was nothing to talk about.

After thinking about it, that evening, after dinner, Ye Changqing called Seeing Mu You and the other Peak Masters and Elders who hadn't eaten to the backyard.

With a helpless smile, he said to everyone.

"I say, Peak Masters, you guys are like this all day, making everyone panic. My cafeteria is in a state of chaos."

"Little Changqing, we don't want to either, but Until Hong Zun and the others have all eaten, and we..."

"Exactly, if we eat, we eat together. Seeing others eat and then having nothing for us—isn't that just killing the heart?"

Hearing Ye Changqing say this, the Peak Masters also said embarrassedly.

Just as Ye Changqing guessed, they were hooked by Until Hong Zun and the others; not eating this meal made them feel uncomfortable.

Seeing this, Ye Changqing smiled.

"How about this: Peak Masters, don't keep circling my cafeteria all day. I promise you, I'll provide one table for each of you, with no fewer than ten dishes. You can order, but I can only host one person per day. You can decide the time; as long as I'm free, I'll agree. That should be fine, right?"

If he couldn't avoid it, he might as well take charge. Besides, there weren't many Peak Masters and Elders; one table a day wasn't much for Ye Changqing.

Hearing this, Seeing Mu You and the others' eyes lit up. *Damn it, did happiness come so suddenly? It caught them completely off guard. *

One second they were racking their brains on how to get a hot meal, and the next, happiness came knocking at the door? This was great.
