PEERLESS GENIUS SYSTEM I

Chapter 176: It's All Mine / Are You Nuts

Xiao Luo reported back to Yan Wang and Feng Zixiao, who were at the training camp, that Gu Qianxue was with him. Then he took Gu Qianxue to a hotpot restaurant.

The young girl didn't even glance at the vegetables on the menu and only ordered meat. It made Xiao Luo feel like the two of them shared some common interest after all. They were both meat lovers.

After boiling a plate of shaved meat, Gu Qianxue started to eat straight away. She blinked her bright eyes and asked Xiao Luo, "What kind of meat is this?"

"Shaved lamb meat," Xiao Luo said.

"This is not lamb. I had lamb in the Mount Tianshan. It doesn't taste like this." Gu Qianxue took it very seriously.

Xiao Luo raised his eyebrows and thought to himself: There was so much shaved meat in hotpot restaurants. They claimed those were pork, beef, or lamb. But as long as it was edible, who would care what kind of meat it really was?

He changed the subject and said, "By the way, why didn't you go back to the training camp after finding out I played a trick on you?"

Gu Qianxue didn't respond straight away. She lowered her head and put some meat in her mouth with a fork. After a while, she said to Xiao Luo without raising her head, "I don't remember the way back."

It turned out she really didn't have any sense of direction!

Xiao Luo exhaled a sigh. How could such a directionally-challenged person be an auxiliary police officer? He couldn't help but start to feel suspicious about Gu Qianxue.

He then said, "You could have called your sister with your phone."

"No way. She would definitely come to take me back if she knew I signed up to be an auxiliary police officer."

"Even if you can't tell your sister, you could have asked the police for help. They would certainly take you back as soon as you tell them you're in the training camp," said Xiao Luo.

Hearing Xiao Luo's words, Gu Qianlin raised her head and took a brief look at him. A trace of disdain seemed to appear in her sparkling eyes. She said, "We are the police officers."

Xiao Luo was speechless. The auxiliary police were indeed part of the police. There was nothing wrong with what she said.

After the short conversation, Gu Qianxue continued to bury her head in the food. Starving, she didn't have the psychological burden of a pretty girl who was afraid of displaying such poor table manners. She gulped down meat and chugged water with the style of the martial ladies in ancient times.

Even though Xiao Luo had already taken dinner, looking at Gu Qianxue devouring food gave him an appetite once more. He picked up the chopsticks and was about to taste a slice of beef in the hotpot.

However, as he was about to put it to consume it, the slice of beef was snatched by Gu Qianxue, leaving him with a pair of empty chopsticks. She then duly brought to her own mouth that already looked oily from the food. She started to chew the beef with relish.

She glared at Xiao Luo and said, "These are all mine. You're not allowed to eat!"

What?

Xiao Luo furrowed his brows and thought, "This young girl had gone too far. I treated her with hotpot, yet she has hoarded all the food and wouldn't even allow me a slice of meat. How was this reasonable?"

He was not in the mood to give in to her ways and picked another slice from the steaming hotpot using his chopsticks.

Nevertheless, the chopsticks in Gu Qianxue's hand once again pouched the meat he picked like a snake springing at the prey. Prepared, Xiao Luo dodged immediately and made Gu Qianxue come away empty-handed. Gu Qianxue's knitted thin arched brows as she twisted wrist, and once again, the chopsticks in her hand shot at the piece of meat.
