Chapter 58: The Wrong Person
"Yes... of course I should..." Yao Jia said as she walked away from Huaichuan.
As soon as she left, Huaichuan actually breathed a sigh of relief.
Yaojia walked to the table and sat down next to Mingjue.
Langyue rolled out the dumpling wrappers, and Yaojia started making dumplings following Mingjue's method.
Not only were the first few dumplings I made crooked, but the fillings were also exposed.
Mingjue didn't say anything to her, but just quietly kneaded the dumplings with the filling exposed.
Later, Yaojia gradually became more skilled in making dumplings. After a while, the dumplings she made became round and cute.
Lang Yue couldn't help but praise: "Yaoyao is really smart. She wrapped it so well for the first time."
Lian Mingjue also nodded and said, "That's right."
Yao Jia was praised, so she was naturally not at a loss like Huai Chuan. She was thick-skinned. She put the plump white dumplings she had just wrapped on the table, wiped her nose, and said, "Of course, I am not just smart!"
Mingjue and Huaichuan both looked at her and laughed.
Yao Jia thought they didn't believe it, so she said with a serious expression: "What are you laughing at? I'm not lying. If you don't believe me, ask Lang Yue."
Lang Yue, who was called out, stopped rolling the noodles, looked at Yao Jia, and immediately laughed, "Yao Yao, it's not that they don't believe you, but the way you look at this moment... at this moment... is really cute... and funny..."
There was a thin layer of flour on Yao Jia's pink and delicate nose tip, which combined with her cute and naive expression made her look just like a kitten.
Yao Jia didn't understand what was going on. She blinked and tilted her head to look at the three of them. This look immediately melted the hearts of the three people in front of her.
Seeing that the three of them were staring at her, Yao Jia realized something was wrong this time. She ran to the water tank, compared her reflection to the water, then raised her hand to wipe off the white spot on the tip of her nose.
He turned around and glared at the three of them, "You three are so mean! Not one of you reminded me that there was flour on my nose!"
The three people: “…………”
Soon, the dumplings were wrapped.
Huaichuan still had a few dishes to cook, so Langyue stayed to make dumplings and add firewood to the stove. Considering that the food was too choking, he asked Mingjue to sit inside with Yaojia.
Mingjue took Yaojia into the pharmacy, took out a small medicine bottle from the top shelf and handed it to Yaojia.
"Is it ready?" Yao Jia took it with a smile on her face.
Just as he was about to open the lid to smell the scent, Mingjue held his hand.
"Don't open it. This medicine is colorless and odorless and is very volatile."
He took out another bottle and gave it to Yao Jia, "This is the antidote, take one pill before you use it."
Yao Jia held a bottle in one hand, walked forward and hugged Ming Jue, thanking him sincerely, "Thank you Ming Jue, you are so kind!"
Mingjue felt his heart almost jump out of his throat as he held the soft and fragrant body in his arms. A tender look blossomed on his face and he tried to raise his hands to hug Yaojia back.
But just as his hand was about to touch Yao Jia's clothes, Yao Jia actually left his arms.
My arms felt empty and I felt lost.
But then he felt a soft touch on his cheek, and Mingjue stood there in a daze. His heartbeat, which had just calmed down, suddenly accelerated rapidly, making him unconsciously raise his hand to hold his chest. He turned around and looked at Yaojia in surprise.
"Why..." kiss him?
Yao Jia smiled sweetly, with some innocence in her peach blossom eyes, "Because you are so nice! I like you so much that I couldn't help but give you a kiss..."
The one who flirts with others without realizing it must be Yao Jia.
Mingjue was stunned, with Yaojia's kiss still on his face, his heart was beating like a drum, and his face turned red. He had never thought that Yaojia would express her feelings so directly, which made him both moved and frightened.
"me……"
Mingjue was so nervous that he couldn't speak. He had never experienced such a scene before. His heart was beating as if it was going to jump out. In the bamboo forest, by the pond, he and she snuggled up to each other in the water. It was out of necessity.
But how to explain the current situation? It was just a kiss, but it made him so confused.
Could he be... Could he be...
Mingjue didn't dare to think about it.
Yao Jia looked at his shy appearance and couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Why are you still blushing?"
She reached out and gently touched Mingjue's blushing cheek, smiling.
Mingjue took a quick step back as if he had been scalded, lowering his head and not daring to look at Yaojia.
"I...I'll go out and see if they've prepared the meal."
Mingjue stammered and turned to leave.
Yao Jia looked at his fleeing back and found it funny. It was just a kiss, so why did he have to avoid her like the plague?
After a burst of firecrackers.
Yao Jia entered the house. The dumplings were already out of the pot. On the square dining table were several side dishes. In the middle was a cooked dish, Huaichuan's specialty, boiled fish fillet.
At the small square table, three people had already taken their seats, leaving only an empty seat between Langyue and Mingjue. Yaojia walked straight over and sat down.
Seeing Yao Jia sitting down, Huaichuan said, "Junior sister, try the boiled fish I made. I guarantee you will want to eat more after you have tried it."
He picked up a piece of fish with chopsticks and put it into Yaojia's bowl, then looked at her expectantly.
Yao Jia endured the discomfort, picked up the chopsticks, put the fish into her mouth and chewed slowly.
But in an instant, a smile broke out on his face, "Brother, your cooking skills are really amazing. The fish is tender and delicious, and the soup is just the right amount of spicy. It's really delicious!"
Lang Yue also picked up a piece of fish and put it into his mouth, chewing it gently, with a glimmer of admiration in his eyes, "Huaichuan, the boiled fish you made tastes just as good as the one in the restaurant."
When Huaichuan heard the two people's praise, a proud look appeared on his face. That was natural. He thought about how he had stayed in a restaurant for half a year in order to carry out the mission. While completing the task, he also learned some skills.
The three of them ate and chatted, and the atmosphere was quite pleasant.
In comparison, Mingjue seemed a little taciturn. He occasionally turned his head to look at Yaojia, and seeing that she was eating with relish, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.
However, when Yao Jia accidentally made eye contact with him, he would immediately lower his head and pretend to eat seriously.
Yao Jia noticed his little action, picked up a dumpling calmly, put it in his mouth, and his eyes lit up instantly, "The dumplings are also delicious, a hundred times better than the dumplings I've eaten before!"
Mingjue prepared the dumpling filling. After hearing Yaojia's words, he raised his head and met Yaojia's sincere smile. He actually showed some shyness on his face. He lowered his head hurriedly and whispered, "As long as you like it."
"Mingjue, what's wrong with you? Why do I feel like something is wrong with you?" Huaichuan looked at Mingjue who was lowering his head beside him and asked curiously.
Mingjue was stunned by Huaichuan's question, his eyes were a little evasive, "No... nothing, just a little tired."
After saying this, he lowered his head again and stopped talking.
Huaichuan opened a jar of wine and filled it for everyone, "It's rare for so many people to celebrate the New Year together, let's not go home until we are drunk tonight!"
Yao Jia picked up the bowl and drank it first. After one gulp, he burped due to the spiciness.
Lang Yue didn't expect that Huaichuan bought strong liquor. Seeing this, she hurriedly stood up and poured a cup of tea for Yao Jia, "Hurry up, Shun Shun, this liquor is too strong. I still have a few bottles of peach wine I bought last time. I'll bring them to you."
Yao Jia held him back and said, "No, I think this wine is good. After drinking it, I feel warm all over and feel very comfortable."
Huaichuan said with a smile: "Langyue, please sit down quickly. People who practice martial arts must drink strong liquor."
Urged Yaojia to drink the remaining wine in the bowl.
Yao Jia did not let him down. She picked up the bowl and drank it all. She handed the empty bowl to him and said, "Fill it up again."
After three rounds of drinking, Yao Jia's mind was a little unclear. He was swaying from side to side on the stool, and there was a risk of sliding off the chair at the next second.
Mingjue looked at her nervously, wondering whether he should help her or not. But the next moment, Yaojia tilted her head and fell towards him.
She buried her head in his arms, wrapped her arms around his waist, and rubbed her forehead against his chest, "I feel dizzy..."
Yao Jia's voice was soft, with some girlish innocence, "To coax me to sleep..."
