Chapter 231: Chapter 231: Does it hurt?
[“I’m at work, it’s not convenient.”]
[“Even when you were working before, you’d still answer. Why did you hang up this time?”] Lu Jingzhi texted over.
Lu Zhanxing had a headache, his big brother was too suspicious.
[“Send me a photo of you at work, let me see if you’re lying to me.”]
[“Big brother! I’m not a child, there’s no need for you to check on me like this.”]
Back when Lu Zhanxing was a kid and often got into trouble, every time he was out, Lu Jingzhi would check up on him this way, fearing something might happen to him.
[“Alright, call me back after you’re done.”]
Lu Jingzhi seemed to think that his younger brother had grown up and there was no need to be so strict.
Lu Zhanxing breathed a sigh of relief, thankful that his brother didn’t press further, otherwise he would have been infuriated.
“Eat.”
Qiao Yun put a grilled shrimp onto the plate in front of Lu Zhanxing.
Lu Zhanxing took a bite of the shrimp and exclaimed, “Sis, if you opened a restaurant, the business would definitely boom.”
Shen Qi thought to himself, this must be what they call a sister complex—one where no matter whether it’s good or bad, it’s always good to him.
“Eat more if it’s good, I’ll grill some more for you.” Qiao Yun put another shrimp onto Lu Zhanxing’s plate.
“You eat, too.”
Qiao Yun placed some grilled pork belly on Li Hanzhou’s plate and, worried that it might be too greasy, she specially grilled some cucumbers too.
“Have some cucumber to cut the grease.”
She was certainly very thoughtful.
All of a sudden, Lu Zhanxing felt the shrimp in his mouth was no longer appetizing.
Li Hanzhou leisurely took a bite and a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, “It would be great if I could eat this every day.”
“No way.” Qiao Yun seriously informed him, “You can’t eat this every day, it’s unhealthy.”
Li Hanzhou’s fingers paused momentarily before he decided to just eat, what’s the use in discussing this with someone so stuffy.
Lu Zhanxing wasn’t feeling sour anymore, ah… my sister is so cute.
Seeing Shen Qi looking at her eagerly, Qiao Yun picked up a large shrimp for him, “You eat too.”
Shen Qi was flattered, almost moved to tears, “Thank you, Professor Qiao, I will taste your cooking with utmost sincerity, and if you need, I can even write an experience report for you.”
Then he bit into the shrimp and took a deep breath.
“Oh my God! What a delicacy of the human world! I’ve never eaten anything so delicious in my life.”
Qiao Yun looked Shen Qi over and turned to Li Hanzhou: Is there something wrong with him?
Li Hanzhou said, “Stay away from him a bit, lest you become stupid.”
Shen Qi: “…” He was infuriated! How could one not give a brother some face?
“Can I have some more?” he requested timidly.
Just as Qiao Yun was about to speak, Li Hanzhou chuckled, “Want some more? Shall I grill it for you?”
“No, no, no, that’s not necessary.” Shen Qi quickly shook his head, “I’ll do it myself.”
Qiao Yun thought to herself, how come Shen Qi was just like Pei Ya, so clumsy.
Shen Qi didn’t know that in Professor Qiao’s heart, he had already been categorized with people like Pei Ya.
Qiao Yun was grilling so fast she could hardly keep up with their eating pace, so she added more ingredients into the hot pot.
The spicy oil in the hot pot was boiling and when she put the ingredients in, some of the soup accidentally splashed onto Li Hanzhou’s hand.@@novelbin@@
Seeing this, Qiao Yun quickly grabbed some paper towels and wiped it for him, then looked up at Li Hanzhou, “Does it hurt?”
“It doesn’t hurt, it’s okay.” Li Hanzhou saw she was worried and felt pleased.
Qiao Yun held Li Hanzhou’s hand, carefully touching the back of his hand to see if he was injured.
Li Hanzhou’s hand stiffened slightly, the softness of the young girl’s fingertips, like the touch of a feather, tickled all the way to his heart.
He restrained himself, managing not to pull his hand back.
Shen Qi almost dropped his chopsticks.
People like them, who occupy high positions, probably all have strong vigilance, but now, he was letting Professor Qiao manipulate him at will.
Tsk tsk, such a stark contrast between people…
Lu Zhanxing’s internal alarm went off, something was not right, definitely not right!
What do you think?
