Request Cooperation

There was a pile of lunch boxes in the refrigerator. Jiang Rongxuan casually took out a few boxes and stuffed them to him.

Ma Chi was very hungry at the moment and didn't pick too much. He warmed up whatever Jiang Rongxuan gave him.

When he opened it after heating, he found that the hot dishes were all vegetarian.

The carnivore without meat, Ma Chi: "......"

While holding rice, Ma Chi complained to Jiang Rongxuan: "Xiao Jiang zong, you're too stingy. It's rare to come to your house for a meal. Why don't you even have a mouthful of meat."

Jiang Rongxuan threw a pillow directly, "Love to eat, if you don't like it roll."

Ma Chi caught the pillow, eating people with short mouths and soft hands, didn't dare to throw the pillow back, walked through the living room and carefully put it on the sofa.

(I didn't found the official english translation, but it can also be "there is no free lunch". A metaphor that means you need to repay favor or the benifits you received from others.)

Ma Chi sat back at the table for dinner. Before he moved his chopsticks, he saw Jiang Rongxuan come over again and take out a small bag of chili sauce from the refrigerator.

The packaging of chili sauce is not formal at all. It is packed in small plastic bags, like the ones sold by roadside stalls. It doesn't look very hygienic.

Jiang Rongxuan put the chili bag on the table, "If you don’t think vegetarian dishes are good, you can mix it with rice."

After speaking, he turned his head and returned to the living room, Ma Chi vaguely heard him mutter: "But I don't think it's necessary..."


Ma Chi looked at the chili sauce with the oil seeping outside, and resolutely chose to eat the vegetables that looked green.

Although the vegetarian dishes don't look very delicious, they are at least clean ah!

The hot dishes are boiled cabbage, fried oatmeal in soy sauce and dried bean curd with celery.

Ma Chi was a little disgusted. He first chose a piece of dried tofu to eat. It's not that he likes dried tofu, mainly because dried tofu with celery is the best selling among these courses.

Ma Chi put the dried tofu into the bowl and tangled for a long time. He picked up a big chopstick and put the rice on the dried tofu. He wanted to eat the rice wrapped with the dried tofu, so that he could ignore the unique taste of leftovers on the dried tofu.

Maybe he ate too much fish and meat. Even if it was covered with rice, Machi felt that these dishes were really difficult to swallow.

After struggling for a while, Ma Chi still decided to listen at his inner desire, raised his head and cried pitifully to Jiang Rongxuan: "Xiao Jiang zong, Rongxuan gege, can you lend me some money and let me order a takeout?"

Jiang Rongxuan threw the pillow again, "Talk well! Is it disgusting?"

Ma Chi chuckled twice and resumed his cheap voice. "Lend me some money, Mr. Jiang. I want to have a barbecue and I want to eat meat."
