Chapter 678: Chapter 68: How to Properly Increase Favorability_2
But Bolun honestly admitted he wasn’t sure.
Because this could still be a disguise.
A deeper disguise!
So, Emily was well aware that her friend was betting on Jason’s genuine love for food, as well as betting that Jason wouldn’t “tear apart” his persona for her, an insignificant “little person”.
But could things really go so smoothly?
Emily, looking at Jason not far away, found both her and her friend’s breaths had halted.
...
Her mind was flooded with all sorts of terrifying scenarios.
For instance, her friend being cleaved in two with a single sword strike, or having their head simply twisted off, or being completely ignored.However, to Emily’s surprise, the “Ship Slayer” merely thought for a second or two before nodding in agreement!
Agreed?!
Emily stood there, stunned.
Her eyes were wide with astonishment.
How could this be?
Did he really love food that much?
No!
It must be an even more “enthusiastic” effort to maintain his character!
Emily’s mind was racing.
Then, a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
No matter which it was!
She knew Bolun had a chance to win the bet!
Afterward…
Emily instinctively wanted to walk toward her friend but stopped immediately.
She was well aware that compared to her friend, she was far from being on equal footing.
If she rashly approached, she might interfere with her friend’s plan.
If it had been earlier, she might not have cared.
But now, with everything riding on this gamble…
Emily hesitated.
However, contrary to Emily’s expectations—
"Jason, may I bring my friend along with me?”
"She’s right over there, you’ve met her before.”
Upon seeing Jason’s nod, Bolun asked directly.
"Of course.”
It wasn’t unusual to bring a friend along when someone else was offering a meal, and Jason didn’t refuse.
"Then, please wait a moment.”
After bowing, Bolun turned and walked toward Emily.
"Bolun, I
Emily, looking at Bolun who had approached, hesitated.
"Let’s go.”
"If we can’t fool the people from the Mystical Side, naturally we can’t fool the ‘Ship Slayer,’ who even those Mystical Side people fear,” Bolun remarked.
"Do you remember what I just said?”
"Sincerity!”
Bolun comforted his friend.
Emily immediately remembered the expressions of horror, disbelief, and fear on the faces of the Mystical Side people they had seen in the “Street of Memories,” especially when they mentioned the “Ship Slayer.” Fear was the predominant emotion.
How could she fool someone who could instill fear in the Mystical Side people who toyed with them at will?
Thinking about their first encounter and his keenness, Emily suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
Since they couldn’t hide it, there was no need for secrecy.
Following Bolun, Emily walked up to Jason.
"Good evening, Sir Jason,”
Emily curtsied, lifting her skirt slightly.
Jason nodded in response.
"Let’s go.”
"Sir Jason, do you have any dietary requirements, or is there anything you don’t eat?”
Bolun and Emily walked ahead as the young man asked.
"Anything delicious is fine.”
"Just nothing too bizarre.”
"If there’s anything like ‘Starry Sky,’ please allow me to refuse.”
Jason loved and was open to all kinds of food.
But not all food was acceptable.
At least, ‘Starry Sky’ was on Jason’s blacklist of foods.
Starry Sky’ sounds like such a beautiful name!”
"What kind of food is that?”
The girl Emily was immediately attracted by the name ‘Starry Sky,’ and with her burden lifted, she didn’t hide her curiosity and abruptly asked.
"Trust me.”
"You definitely wouldn’t like it.”
Jason fought back a twitch in the corner of his mouth as he replied.
Even now, just the thought of the many little fish eyes in ‘Starry Sky’ made Jason feel like he would die with his eyes wide open if he ate it.
"Is it more terrifying than that shit-flavored chocolate the corner store discontinued?”
Emily’s eyes widened with curiosity.
At the same time, she also recalled some memories best left buried.
"Shit-flavored chocolate?”
Jason frowned.
Who has such peculiar tastes?
He looked at Emily and Bolun, and their gazes turned strange.
"It’s made just like regular chocolate, but then it’s called ‘Gold Filling
Emily started to explain but then found herself unable to continue and even began to retch.
"We were tricked by some Excellencies into choosing that chocolate.”
Bolun explained.
Then, the young man pointed to a shop on the side of the road.
"Sir Jason, let’s start here,”
"This is a pie shop.”
"Their specialty is the black pepper beef pie, but the onion chicken flavor is also very good,”
Bolun introduced.
Jason rushed into the shop without hesitation.
With a smile, Bolun followed closely behind.
Emily walked behind them, remembering the shop’s plum juice was also excellent.
Latter, Emily recommended the plum juice to Jason.
By that time, Jason had already eaten ten pies, yet he drank the plum juice with undiminished speed.
With the plum juice as an appetizer, Jason ate even faster.
Emily’s mouth fell open wider and wider.
She had never seen anyone eat so much.
Neither had Bolun.
However, he didn’t show any sign of surprise.
He maintained his smile from the beginning to the end.
Even when the pie shop’s owner informed him that all the pies were gone, his expression remained the same.
"Sir Jason, everything’s been eaten here.”
