No One But You novel Chapter 25

It seemed to be weird between me and Calvin.

He took me out to dinner, opened the car door for me, and fastened my seatbelt.

"What would you like to eat?" He asked me over his shoulder as he drove.

"I thought you had it all figured out when you were coming to pick me up for dinner. Don't you know that when a man asks a woman what she would like to eat, there's only one answer?"

“What?" He asked me with interest.

"Whatever."

He smiled. When he smiled, I found some joy in his eyes.

This man's eyes were attractive.

I took one look and turned to the mirror to straighten my tangled hair.

He took me to have beef. The beef was roasted on top of barbed wire. It tasted so good. And it was the best ever.

"Does it taste good?" He cut large pieces of beef into small pieces with scissors and put them in my plate.

"Just fine." I ate as much beef as he gave me. I can't afford to eat such expensive beef at ordinary times. I would eat as much as I can when I was with a fat cat.

He stopped barbecuing and looked at me with his chin in his hand. "You ate a lot."

"Shouldn’t I eat a lot since you treat me to dinner?" I tapped the clip in his hand with my chopsticks, “Bake it, I haven't had enough."

He obeyed, placing chunks of pink beef on the barbed wire and continuing to roast.

The open flame licked the beef, turning the pink to beige.

This kind of beef was particularly easy to cook, and the fat was wrapped in the inside, unlike the general meat with fat meat and lean meat separated, which would be greasy to eat.

Anyway, I liked pork streaky as well, as long as it was meat.

I liked meat before I got pregnant, and then I became a carnivore after I was pregnant.

"You don't eat vegetables?" He took carrot into my bowl.

I took it away with my chopsticks, “Don't try to feed me like a rabbit."

He didn't eat much, but watched me eat.

I looked up at him, with a piece of beef in my mouth, “Are you bankrupt? Is you money only enough for me alone to eat?"

He raised the corner of one lip and smiled with evil, “I like to see you eat."

I buried my head eating my food and listened to him talk about his love history, “When a girl was chasing me, she said she like meat. When we had a dinner, she ordered two steaks. Do you know how much two steaks are?”

"I don't know." I'm too lazy to use my head.

"Two steaks add up to a kilo of beef. After eating half of them, she couldn't eat any more. She threw up in front of me and later I never ate beef again."

He thought it made me sick, but he failed.

I smile happily, looking at him, “What you treated her to eat certainly was not the expensive steak, otherwise she would loath to vomit."

“How many women in the world do you think eat as much as you do?"

“I'm just pregnant."

"How about before getting pregnant?"

"Eat more." I ate all the beef and held my chin waiting for dessert.

He ordered my favorite durian cake and durian pudding. I took a mouthful, the smell of gas leaking through my mouth.

Perhaps because I looked so happy, he scooped a small piece of my cake into his mouth.

"Well?" I asked.

"Not as delicious as the look on your face."

"What a waste." I finished off the dessert on my plate, nodding contentedly, "Delicious."

"So, shall I bring you here next time?"

"Ok." If he was willing to pay money, I was willing to pay my stomach.

Just as I was getting up, someone who seemed to be an acquaintance of Calvin came up to our table.

"Calvin." The man was surprised, “How rare you come out for lunch."
