Chapter 58 - Breakfast
Chapter 58: Breakfast
The associate director muttered to himself, “Yu Jue is an unruly little wolfhound in front of his fans. In front of his younger sister, he is a cute little puppy seeking attention. The younger sister is a prideful tsundere. This plot between the siblings should be very interesting…”
The colleague beside him also said, “Indeed, Yu Jue’s persona is very contrasting and cute. Furthermore, Yu Yao had previously gained so much attention because of the face-swapping software at the press conference. The other teams’ popularity combined can’t even compare to theirs.”
“Yu Jue and his sister are the highlights of our show. The staff members in charge of their group must be extra careful.”
It was still early. Although the production crew had already started their day’s work, they did not put all their energy into the guests.
After all, they felt that at this time, it would be very difficult to film anything interesting from the guests.
But what was unexpected was that Yu Jue and Yu Yao’s group had given them plenty of surprises this early in the morning.
Yu Yao knocked on Yu Jue’s door. The person who opened the door was Yu Jue, who was wearing an apron and holding a spatula.
“Yaoyao, I was just about to wake you up.” Yu Jue smiled, revealing his white teeth. He said warmly, “I made you breakfast. Let’s go eat.”
How could this image of a househusband be linked to Yu Jue? Because she was too shocked, Yu Yao did not react for a moment. She stared blankly at Yu Jue for a long time before finally taking hesitant steps into his apartment.
“Are you sure the breakfast you made is edible?” Yu Yao asked suspiciously. “I’m not doubting your culinary skills. It’s just that I have something very important to do later and don’t want to harm my body…”
“Don’t worry, Yaoyao. I fried eggs and prepared milk and bread. Today’s breakfast will definitely be very healthy!” Yu Jue nodded without hesitation, his attitude firm. “What do you have in mind after breakfast? Do you want to go out with me?”
Yu Jue had clearly misunderstood Yu Yao’s meaning. He thought that she was arranging activities for the variety show.
“So you’re looking forward to being alone with me too? I’m so touched!”
As Yu Jue spoke, he looked at Yu Yao with sparkling eyes. Yu Yao quickly took two steps back and couldn’t help but rub her arms to shake off the goosebumps.
“You’re overthinking things. I have something to do later. If possible, I don’t want to take you along…”
Yu Jue’s expression immediately changed to one of disappointment, and his eyes dimmed. However, he quickly perked up and said, “No matter what Yaoyao wants to do, I’ll accompany you. Let’s eat breakfast first.”
Yu Yao very much doubted Yu Jue’s culinary skills, but Yu Jue seemed to also know his own limits. He didn’t challenge any difficult breakfast foods, just warm milk, toasted bread, and fried eggs.
When it was placed on the table, it still looked normal. Yu Yao carefully tasted the fried egg and found that other than being fried a little too much, there were no other problems.
She looked up and met Yu Jue’s expectant gaze. Yu Yao was silent for a while before saying, “Breakfast tastes pretty good. Hurry up and eat too.”
Although he had only received a simple response that could not even be considered praise, Yu Jue grinned happily. “Yaoyao, as long as you like it!”
Even when the two of them got into the nanny van after breakfast, Yu Jue’s smile had never left his face. Even when he was playing with his phone, he kept humming a cheerful tune.
Yu Yao was annoyed by his ruckus. However, because there were cameramen and Yu Jue’s team staff on the nanny van, she couldn’t embarrass him in front of everyone. She could only roll her eyes helplessly and turn her head to pretend to be asleep.
The camera happened to capture Yu Yao’s rolling eyes. The directors were all amused by her actions and couldn’t help but laugh.
When the nanny van stopped at the hotel, Yu Jue finally thought of asking Yu Yao what she was doing here.
Yu Yao explained casually, “Qiao Lian said he was going abroad for a few days and asked me to help take care of his cat.”
“Qiao Lian?” The familiar name stunned Yu Jue for a few seconds. Then he suddenly thought of the man he had seen at the psychiatric hospital’s entrance the other day and instantly became alert. “Yaoyao, why are you still in contact with him?”
“We’ve always been in touch,” Yu Yao said, giving him a strange look. “I even met him at school. Second Brother knows about it too.”
“What? Why didn’t Second Brother stop you from meeting him?” Yu Jue almost jumped up in anxiety. “Yaoyao, that man must be up to no good. You should stay far away from him. How can you maintain contact with him?”
Yu Yao thought that Yu Jue’s intuition was quite accurate. Qiao Ling kept trying to abduct her home to be his stray kitten and indeed had ulterior motives.
But how could she possibly tell Yu Jue all the details about her interactions with Qiao Ling? Yu Yao just rolled her eyes and walked straight towards the hotel’s entrance.
