"How? Belittle me?" Eden looked at Minnie, as if he had been disliked by her and felt wronged somehow.
Minnie was surprised to see such a look on Eden's face. For a moment, she wondered if she had really done something wrong.
Minnie said, "If you're so good, why don't you try this?"
She handed Eden a roasted squid and looked as if she was gloating.
Eden saw her expression, coupled with her tone of this moment, and understood what she was up to.
After licking inside his cheek, Eden said, "Why don't we make a bet?"
"What bet?" asked Minnie.
She didn't feel any danger at all, but just thought Eden was struggling at the moment.
Eden said, "If I eat this squid without changing my expression, you give me a chance to pursue you, the kind that I can date you."
Minnie really didn't expect Eden was betting this.
Stunned for a moment, she confirmed that he was serious about what he saw in Eden's eyes, and then began to re-examine the matter.
Minnie said, "So, I have the right to know why would you want to pursue me?"
She still didn't think she could make Eden fall in love with her at first sight.
Therefore, for Eden to make such a request, Minnie was really at a loss.
Eden, on the other hand, was clearly annoyed by her question.
He said, "What do you think? I'm free and chasing you for fun?"
She stared at Eden seriously. After confirming the seriousness in Eden's eyes, she suddenly gave up.
She had little courage to agree to the bet.
Eden saw the change in Minnie's expression and could guess what she was thinking.
"You don't have to be burdened," he said. "In fact, I just want to get off to a reasonable start. At the normal pace, the two of us by this time have been able to have a result."
When Minnie heard Eden say this, for a moment, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"So, you're blaming me now?" Minnie was a little upset.
Eden said, "I didn't mean that. You don't have to think too much about it. I just hope that you can give me a chance to get to know you like I'm meeting you for the first time. I want you to get to know me as well. From an objective point of view, I can tell if the two of us really want to give it a try."
Minnie, however, said strangely, "However, if you follow the normal way of thinking and encounter my attitude, it should be very clear that I have rejected you."
Eden said, "So, or should I come and find out if I'm the one being rejected, or is it just because I'm the one who came to you for a blind date?"
This question, which can be said, really grasped the point.
What she was uncomfortable with was so easily exposed by Eden.
This feeling was very subtle, but also very bad.
It was as if he had everything under control.
Indeed, Minnie used such a way to prepare for Eden to be beaten back just because she resisted being arranged for a blind date. However, what she did not expect was that such a situation would happen now. What she had performed before made her look like a fool at the moment.
Minnie said, "Actually, you do not have to make so much trouble. I do not think that will change. We're not the same."
Eden smiled when she said that, and said, "It's too arbitrary for you to say that. There are a lot of things that you haven't experienced before. It doesn't seem reasonable to make such a decision. Why don't you just give me a chance? If the outcome is as you said, then I'm willing to admit defeat."
Minnie didn't understand how Eden could be so persistent in this matter.
But, having done so, she accepted the bet.
Minnie said, "Since you insist on it, I'll grant you this request."
