Kung Fu Baby with 17 Doting Brothers-Chapter 559: A True Appetite
Just woke up from a nightmare, and already getting some concern from fellow peers, Li Zhou indulged himself for once.
After happily ordering from the store, he cautiously asked Ji Zhangzhuo.
"Can I really order anything?"
Ji Zhangzhuo’s face was expressionless, "Order whatever, you can even empty the store, senior brother has money."
Li Zhou glanced at his expression and didn’t dare to continue ordering.
That expression didn’t look like he didn’t care.
At this moment, a chubby face popped over, speaking in a teasing tone.
"Hehe, Second Senior Brother isn’t thinking you ordered too much, he’s just shocked by your appetite. He always thought he was the one who could eat the most, the ’strong man’!"
Some people want to prove the very thing they lack.
Ji Zhangzhuo, with his baby face, often smiles cheerfully and sometimes pretends to be cute, but in reality, he cares quite a bit about his image. He hopes to present himself as mighty and strong.
Once, when he went out with Gu Li, many people mistook him for Gu Li’s high school-aged younger brother. Gu Li disdainfully said at the time, "I don’t have such an old younger brother."
A heartbroken Ji Zhangzhuo went home and pretended to cry while hugging Tuanzi, and since then, he’s been eating more and more.
However, what he lacks is not appetite or physique, but his face.
Some people are just naturally baby-faced, no matter how you try, you stay cute.
Tuanzi unceremoniously revealed Ji Zhangzhuo’s shortcomings in front of the new senior brother.
Their bond as siblings is about being close and loving, and Ji Zhangzhuo has tricked her before too.
Tricks make the bond deeper.
Li Zhou had a moment of realization.
He looked at this Second Senior Brother’s face, gave an earnest smile showing his canine teeth, "To me, you’re the strong man, two meters tall."
Ji Zhangzhuo, however, wasn’t so easily placated.
He was smart enough to deduce the truth from his junior brother’s appetite.
"Go ahead and order, anything you like."
He turned his back, preferring to see no more.
Tuanzi was half hunched in Li Zhou’s arms.
She quickly glanced at the standing senior brother, starting to push her own agenda.
"This store’s barbecue is very delicious, and it’s clean and hygienic. Miaomiao has checked it out, and she wouldn’t eat at an unclean place."
"This one, this one, the milk tea... cough cough, no, the fruit tea is super good, you should try it, Miaomiao especially recommends it..."
"The roast duck here is amazing, and they even give freebies..."
"This, this, you must try!"
Li Zhou’s appetite was already large, and initially, being new here, he was too embarrassed to eat much, but now that he received permission from Second Senior Brother and various recommendations from the little junior sister, he ordered a lot without much thought.
This behavior caused quite a few merchants to call and confirm, just in case.
Within the next hour, deliveries came like a stream, with even security stopping by to see if someone was throwing a party.
The dining hall was filled with food.
Tantai Yi would not eat after a certain time and was simply sitting by as company.
Tuanzi quietly joined the night snack party, occasionally glancing outside the dining hall, fearing that Gu Cheng might suddenly appear and watch them.
"Don’t worry," Ji Zhangzhuo, still intending to compete with Li Zhou, spoke with his mouth full, yet still managed to chat with Tuanzi, "with such an uproar, Big Brother must have noticed long ago. If he hasn’t come down, he’s tacitly allowing it."
Tuanzi breathed a sigh of relief.
After a pause, she added, "Then should we invite Big Brother for a late-night snack too?"
Her tone was full of uncertainty, considering in her memory, Big Brother never had late-night snacks. He’s a very disciplined person, unlike her and Second Brother, who often pushed the limits.
"Sure," Ji Zhangzhuo glanced at her small, flowery face, speaking meaningfully, "go as you are, let him see your face, smell the barbecue aroma, oh, and you just sneaked some taro grass jelly."
Tuanzi immediately turned her back, as if doing so would prevent Ji Zhangzhuo from seeing what she was eating.
During the late-night snack, Li Zhou said nothing, he only did one thing—eat.
While eating, his two furry black ears constantly twitched, his tail similarly swaying back and forth.
Tuanzi modestly ate a bit before stopping.
Having washed her face and paws, she came back to see the tail swaying back and forth, her gaze involuntarily following the tail.
Unable to resist, Tuanzi followed her instincts, much like a cat seeing a feather toy, and lunged forward to grab the tail.
Her grip was gentle, ensuring the tail wasn’t hurt.
The one enjoying the night snack paused for a second, then continued eating as if nothing had happened.
Tuanzi hugged the fluffy big tail tightly, not minding the heat, and rubbed against it several times.
At this time, Ji Zhangzhuo finally admitted defeat, daring not to compete with a junior brother whose main form is a Black Panther. Catching a glimpse of Tuanzi hugging the big tail, he felt a bit tempted too.
He quickly glanced at the junior brother still eating and cautiously reached out, planning to give it a quick touch and then run off.
With this new junior brother’s skills, there’s no way he could catch up.
Just as his fingertips were about to touch the dense soft fur, the long black tail sensed it and slipped away from the junior sister’s palm, avoiding Ji Zhangzhuo’s hand.
Ji Zhangzhuo: "...Junior Brother, you are being biased!"
The snack was on his tab after all!
The young man with the pointy teeth innocently blinked, "What bias? Senior Brother, what are you talking about?"
Ji Zhangzhuo: "..." This feigned innocence looks so familiar!
Once Li Zhou revealed his true appetite, the night snack didn’t last very long.
Tuanzi and the others discreetly cleaned up the boxes while sneaking glances at Li Zhou’s abdomen.
Li Zhou wore a short sleeve that Ji Zhangzhuo had contributed, which now, being tight, outlined his perfect muscular lines. Even through the white shirt, they could see the outline of his eight-pack abs.
Tuanzi didn’t quite understand eight-pack abs, only feeling that this senior brother had a really nice body, regularly exercising for sure.
Besides that, she was also quite surprised.
"You just ate so much, how come your tummy isn’t sticking out?"
Li Zhou patted his belly through the shirt with an embarrassed smile.
Ji Zhangzhuo immediately understood, "Still not full?"
He suddenly felt a sense of crisis, suspecting that all his earnings might not be enough to cover this new junior brother’s food expenses!
"I only eat like this occasionally," Li Zhou also felt awkward having his senior brother and sister pay for his meals, "normally, I don’t eat much."
The Beastman Clan has a powerful healing ability, and this strong recovery power is based on eating a lot and resting.
From his careful observation when following his senior brothers back yesterday, this world seemed very safe, so he didn’t need to often intervene, which means he could eat less and rest more and still recover just fine.
With these plans in mind, he followed his senior brother and sister to digest food, then returned to his room to rest, sleeping until nine in the morning.
In a hurry to go downstairs, he found out that his junior sister’s big brother had already left, and the others had finished breakfast too.
Tuanzi was still panting while practicing martial arts.
Seeing him standing dazed at the door, she pointed toward the kitchen.
"Your breakfast is kept warm in the kitchen, hurry up and eat!"
Li Zhou followed the scent toward the kitchen.
