Chapter 500 We Are Adults

This dinner was dramatically chaotic, like the god of love had gotten drunk and started randomly matching people together.

Larry and Nancy kept hinting for Keith to show affection to Shirley, while Shirley kept giving opportunities for Keith to show affection to Nancy.

Keith claimed to be showing affection to Shirley, but in reality, his attention was all on Nancy. He peeled shrimp after shrimp, then started peeling crabs, piling up a mountain of food in Nancy's bowl that she couldn't possibly finish eating...

"Alright, alright, stop peeling. I'm full, really full."

Nancy wore an awkward smile, no.velxo stopping Keith from peeling more shrimp. Then, she lowered her voice, "I've been a wingman for you long enough. Why don't you chat with Shirley, serve her food? Have you forgotten everything I taught you? If you don't act soon, she'll leave the table."

"Are you really disgusted with me? Is it because the shrimps I peel aren't clean enough, or the crab legs I handle aren't plump enough? I can do better!"

Keith looked at Nancy with pitiful, puppy-dog eyes.

That confused Nancy.

"Ahem, I'm full too. You guys enjoy your meal!"

Shirley wiped her mouth and got up to leave the table, calling out to the two children, "Let's go, Ben and Ally, I will take you to play!"

"I'm full as well.’

Larry also stood up.

Even if his observation skills were poor, he could see who Keith was aiming for. So he stopped trying to play matchmaker.

After all, he had taken Nancy for his sister. If Nancy won over Keith, it would be the same as if Shirley had won him over. The effect would be the same, and Keith could still be "used."

So, only Keith and Nancy were left at the dining table.
