"I— " Bai Lan almost immediately eyed Mo Li, hoping to gain a reaction from him. Was he going to acknowledge her presence and give her a bowl of food?

"Sister Lan…." Li Yue interrupted her stupor. "You should go get yourself some food. You know…. I feel extra hungry today. Turns out teaching is not an easy job."

Bai Lan swallowed her nonexistent saliva. This is bullying! This woman is trying to bully her! "Then… then… I will go get some food. But… since you're hungry… would you like me to get you some more food?"

"Ahhhh? You have more?" Li Yue beamed. "Then… I hope Sister Lan won't mind. Do get me another bowl." She then went back to eating her fill until Bai Lan left them.

"She must be planning to poison your food." Mo Li said. "You shouldn't eat it."

"How can you tell?"

"She did it once before."

Li Yue nodded. Mo Li had actually known just what kind of woman Bai Lan is, yet he tricked her into coming here and pretend to be so close to him, all to make that Bai Lan jealous! Had Mo Li been trying to kill her all along? Li Yue's gaze turned accusatory. Maybe Mo Li was planning on killing her because he could not afford to pay her? She nervously looked at Mo Li.

After a few seconds, Li Yue let out a sigh. Maybe she was just overthinking things. She should focus on her quest and anger Bai Lan to death. Hopefully that way, Mo Li would see her usefulness and not kill her.

This silence continued until Bai Lan arrived alongside another two bowls in her hands. She smiled at Li Yue, her downcast expression earlier had long since gone. Of course, Li Yue didn't miss the sinister glint in the woman's eyes.

"Thank you, Sister Lan. I'm sure your in-laws would be very happy to have you as their daughter in law." Li Yue sweetly said. However, unlike before, the smile on Bai Lan's face didn't falter. She walked towards Li Yue and immediately handed her the bowl in her left hand. "Wow! This looks amazing! " Using a set of chopsticks, Li Yue got one meatball from the new bowl and held it in front of Mo Li's face. "Here… Li… you should try it first."

"Eh? What are you doing?" Bai Lan said, her eyes widened in surprise.

"Oh… we always feed each other all the time… so I— "

"No!" Bai Lan shook her head. "I made that specifically for you! How could you let Elder Brother eat it first?"

"Huh?" Li Yue stared at her, confused. "I thought you cooked this for Mo Li?"

"I— I— Yes… I did but that bowl… I've arranged it especially for you… I mean… I mean… you are a guest after all and I— "

"Then great! This means this bowl is more delicious than what Mo Li is eating!" Smiling, she held the meatball closer to Mo Li's mouth.

"I said you can't do that!" Bai Lan's voice echoed inside the room, her hand started shaking, her eyes turned red as beads of tears started forming in her eyes. "I made it for you. You can't give it to elder brother!"

"But— "

"I said No! No means No!" Bai Lan shook her head before she stood up from her seat. "Elder brother… this woman keeps on disrespecting me. I'll have to leave your room and eat in the dining room instead. I will also ask the servants to escort her as she leaves the place tonight… it is already late she just couldn't walk around without a car. You also can't drive her as —"

"Oh! Don't worry, I'll sleep here tonight!" Li Yue interrupted her. She pointed at her bag. "I've already brought my stuff. So… there's no need to be so concerned about me."

"Sleep here? But… "

"I'll sleep in Mo Li's room!"

"You— " Bai Lan staggered. She stared at Mo Li as if waiting for him to scold the daring Li Yue. "You will stay with elder brother inside his room?" Bai Lan's chest tightened.

"Yes! Please don't worry… this isn't the first time we spend the night together anyways… I mean… we've already slept together before so…"

*THUD*

Li Yue's eyes lit up! She smiled, ignoring the Bai Lan who was already out cold on the floor. 'Then…. Can I use it to open the vending machine?'

[Negative.]

'But you said I can use it to open the vending machine!'

[Vending Machine Activation Cost: Eleven Coins. Host's total Coins: Ten.]

'You— Are you kidding me?' This robot just tricked her! 'You despicable being! You said I can use it to open the machine?'

[You lack one coin to Activate the vending machine. Host needs to work harder.]

'You lied to me!' she accused. Of course, she knew that the Robot didn't actually lie to her, it had only hidden the fact that she actually needed eleven coins to open the Vending Machine. She really had her hopes up for nothing! As expected, she still could not rely on this robot to help her in times of need!

Unable to stop herself, Li Yue screamed. "AHHHHH!" This robot is really too much!

"What's wrong with you?" Mo Li turned to her after he finished calling his people so they could get Bai Lan out of his room. "You're the one who made her faint. Why are you screaming?"

"That's none of your business!" Li Yue hissed. "Get her away from me!"

"My men are already on their way. They will send her to my parents' house."

"You tricked me! You should compensate me more tonight!" Of course, Li Yue immediately vented her irritation on the only person she could actually talk to. However, Mo Li only stared at her for a few seconds. Slowly, his eyes darted towards her neck, then to her chest.

"What kind of compensation do you want exactly?"

Li Yue balled her hands into fists. This man… This man…. Is just as infuriating as her robot!
