Love’s Cunning Ruse

Chapter 249

Kieran, “The task is a piece of cake for you and won’t take up much of your time.”

“I don’t want to help!”

“Are you sure you don’t want to help?”

-“I’m positive!”

“Let me ask again, you sure you don’t’want to lend a hand?”

“I’m sure I don’t!”

“What do you feel like eating tonight?”

“Ceviche.” After saying this, Dylan slapped himself. “No, I decided not to eat! I have principles!”

Dylan then picked up the menu to cover his face, knowing from a young age that Kieran was a crafty one; especially when he was being overly generous, one had to be extra cautious.

“Alright, I’ll make ceviche for you tonight.” Kieran took the menu from Dylan’s hands and said, “Help me book a reliable psychologist.”

“A psychologist?” Dylan asked in surprise. “Who needs a psychologist?”

“Me.”

Dylan lit up immediately, staring into Kieran’s eyes. “You need a psychologist? Look no further, I’m a psychologist, capable of tackling all kinds of mental issues. I have an official certificate to prove it, I’m extremely professional, and you can trust me. Since we’re pals, I can give you a discount, spill it, what’s been bothering you?”

“I asked you to find me a ‘reliable’ psychologist.”

“I’m not just reliable, I’m super reliable, with exceptional professional skills,” Dylan said, keeping a steady gaze on Kieran, observing his every move. After a careful examination, he furrowed his brows slightly. “You’re speaking hastily, holding things close to your chest as if to maintain distance. These are signs of anxiety. All your features are drawn to the center of your face, indicating disgust. You’re anxious and disgusted, and you’re looking for a psychologist, let me guess…”

“And you you’re furrowing your brows, showing confidence? Do you really think you can guess why I need a psychologist?” Kieran tapped on the table and said, “Let’s make a bet. If you guess right, I’ll make you dinner every day for a week. If you’re wrong, you’ll have to go on a blind date, deal?”

If it was anyone else, Dylan would have agreed without a second thought. But facing the crafty Kieran, Dylan dared not to agree hastily.

“Do you really think I’m the type of person to do such boring stuff?” Dylan pointed at Kieran and said, “I will find you a psychologist, and you’re still making me ceviche tonight, plus I’m ordering at least four dishes.”

“Deal.”
