Chapter 119 I want to taste the strawberries to see if they are sweet

Shi Huai stood there, her hands covered with her hands, tears soaking her palms. She was at a loss, her mind full of strawberry cake without strawberries.

Shi Huai was suddenly patted on the shoulder. He was slightly startled and looked back at the tall man standing behind him.

There were sparkling tears in her round eyes, with countless grievances crushed in them. Zhou Jibai's breathing stopped and his heart ached for a moment.

Zhou Jibai leaned in front of Shi Huai and wiped away the tears on Shi Huai's face bit by bit with his fingertips, "What's wrong?"

As soon as Shi Huai saw Zhou Jibai appear, the emotions that had been somewhat suppressed burst out completely. Like a reservoir with a valve opened, he began to cry and complain. He lowered his head and kept wiping his eyes with both hands, which could not stop the tears.

"Gone..."

Zhou Jibai's eyes were filled with heartache, and he asked with some confusion: "What's missing?"

Shi Huai pointed to the strawberry cake on the table without any strawberries: "The strawberries on the strawberry cake! They're gone!"

Shi Huai spoke while crying, and his thin shoulders were shaking constantly.

Zhou Jibai glanced at the piece of strawberry cake without strawberries on the table and fell into deep thought.

It seems like he ate it...

Seeing Shi Huai crying so sadly, Zhou Jibai felt distressed and embarrassed, and his conscience also hurt a little.

At that time, Shi Huai finished eating half a piece of cake and stood up to go back to his room.

Zhou Jibai thought Shi Huai couldn't eat anymore, so he wanted to help her finish it.

Just as he had eaten the strawberry on the cake, Shi Huai stopped halfway and did not come over, but gave Zhou Jibai some instructions.

"Put the cake in the refrigerator later. I'll eat it tomorrow."

Zhou Jibai agreed and stopped eating.

The culprit pursed his lips a little embarrassedly. He coughed lightly and said, "I'll help you get it back."

Shi Huai sniffed and muttered, "How do I find it?"

Today, Shi Huai was in a rare mood and specifically asked for strawberry cake. Zhou Jibai of course doted on her and met all her needs.

Thinking that Shi Huai wanted to eat strawberry cake, he would definitely want to eat strawberries too, so he asked someone to buy a large box of fresh strawberries and send it over.

While Shi Huai was asleep, Zhou Jibai washed the strawberries and placed them in a refrigerator specially used for fruits.

Shi Langyue is a mysophobe, so she has two refrigerators at home: one for fruits and vegetables, and one for food to prevent odors from mixing.

Seeing that Shi Huai's crying became increasingly intermittent, Zhou Jibai covered her cheeks with his hands, rubbed them lightly twice, and asked her to lift her head: "Close your eyes first."

Shi Huai blinked his eyes, a little confused and not quite understanding, but still did it.

Seeing Shi Huai close her eyes obediently, Zhou Jibai curled the corners of his lips and leaned over to kiss her wet eyelashes. Then he immediately turned around and ran over to get Shi Huai some strawberries.

After a while, Zhou Jibai said calmly: "You can open your eyes now."

Zhou Jibai was holding a plate of strawberries in his hand.

Shi Huai curled his lips: "This is not the strawberry on the strawberry cake."

"That's easy."

So Zhou Jibai took out a big strawberry and put it on the half piece of strawberry cake.

Shi Huai: “…”

She was speechless at first, and then she couldn't hold back her tears and laughed.

Then, she stopped smiling and asked Zhou Jibai: "Did you eat my strawberries?"

Zhou Jibai avoided looking at Shi Huai and stuffed a strawberry into his mouth: "That strawberry is not fresh."

Shi Huai held the strawberry in his mouth, took a bite of the tip, and chewed it slowly, "That's not a reason for you to eat it secretly."

Zhou Jibai: "Actually, I didn't eat it."

Shi Huai tilted his head in confusion.

Zhou Jibai pointed to the big, red, plump strawberries on the plate and said, "That strawberry gave birth to a child. These are her descendants."

Shi Huai glanced at Zhou Jibai with a look as if he was looking at a mentally retarded person.

Seeing that Shi Huai had finished the strawberry in her mouth, Zhou Jibai handed her another strawberry.

Shi Huai opened his mouth and let Zhou Jibai feed it.

"Are you still sad?"

Shi Huai shook his head at first, then nodded heavily, "You stole my strawberries, your crime is unforgivable."

Zhou Jibai laughed out loud, "How do you want to punish me, sir?"

Shi Huai curled his lips, "I haven't thought about it yet."

Seeing Shi Huai's pouting lips, stained with strawberry juice, red and attractive, Zhou Jibai couldn't help but bend down, gently pinch her chin, and lick her lips.

Shi Huai:!!!

In an instant, Shi Huai's face turned completely red.

"Why are you still acting like a hooligan?"

"I want to try the strawberries to see if they are sweet."

Shi Huai: “…………”

Shi Huai was so angry that he grabbed a strawberry and stuffed it into Zhou Jibai's mouth: "That's not a reason for you to kiss secretly!"

After saying that, he turned around and left angrily.

Grandma went to stay by the bedside, so only Shi Huai and Zhou Jibai were at home tonight.

Shi Huai cried so hard just now that his head was much clearer. He was not very sleepy yet and did not want to go back to the bedroom. He walked out the door and went to the courtyard.

Although the New Year had passed and the weather in Guangnan was warm, it was night after all, and Shi Huai was too heavy to be exposed to the cold wind.

Zhou Jibai took off his coat and put it on her.

Shi Huai raised his head and glanced at Zhou Jibai, then shifted his gaze to the dark night sky.

As she entered the third trimester, her emotions became overly sensitive, something she didn't want to be.

Obviously, today's strawberries were a trivial matter. But when I saw that the strawberry cake in the refrigerator was missing a strawberry, I couldn't hold back my tears and my mood completely collapsed.

Now that Zhou Jibai had calmed her down, she felt that she had really been making a big deal out of nothing.

Shi Huai sighed softly: "Am I being too hypocritical?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Huai felt his hand warm up. He lowered his eyes and saw that it was Zhou Jibai's palm holding his entire hand, using his body temperature to warm himself.

"Not pretentious, it's cute this way." Zhou Jibai said with a faint smile.

Shi Huai: "Just follow my words and coax me."

Still feeling a little guilty, Shi Huai sighed again.

She didn't look at Zhou Jibai, but she could feel that Zhou Jibai's eyes were always on her.

With the help of the hazy moonlight, one can vaguely see the redness in Shi Huai's eyes that has not yet faded.

"Shi Huai, don't blame yourself."

Zhou Jibai's voice sounded heavy and guilty.

"You're still so young, and you've already borne my child. You've endured hardships that ordinary people can't understand, and even your emotions have been controlled."

"I'm the only one who should be sorry."

Shi Huai's heart sank, and when he looked up, he met Zhou Jibai's eyes.

Eyes don't lie.

The light amber eyes suddenly flashed with heartache and guilt, as if a huge rock fell heavily into the pool, splashing water everywhere with a "plop", which disturbed Shi Huai's mood again.

If Zhou Jibai knew what he had done in his previous life, would he still think so?

Shi Huai took a deep breath, closed his lips, and wanted to cry again.

Seeing Shi Huai's frustrated look as she tried hard to hold back her tears, Zhou Jibai bent down, held her face, and rested his forehead against hers.

While Shi Huai wasn't paying attention, he rubbed her head again: "It's okay to cry, there are plenty of tissues."

Shi Huai: "I don't want to cry, it's this damn pregnancy hormone."

Zhou Jibai raised his eyebrows: "Isn't it because of what I said just now that you are moved?"

That's true.
