Chapter 26 Lin Ranran's Dumplings
"Did you make these dumplings?"
Ye Ying nodded, "Yes, don't be fooled by their ugly appearance, they taste pretty good."
Ji Lianqi took off his training uniform and sat down. Before he even touched the chopsticks, he heard a knock on the door and Lin Ranran's voice.
"Brother Lian Qi, it's me."
Ye Yingsi raised her eyebrows without any surprise. Lin Ranran made the dumplings so quickly, and it turned out that she had prepared a portion for Ji Lianqi!
Ji Lianqi hesitated for a few seconds, then got up and opened the door for Lin Ranran.
As soon as the door opened, Lin Ranran excitedly placed a bowl of hot dumplings in front of Ji Lianqi like a treasure.
"Brother Lian Qi, I made an extra portion of your dumplings this afternoon. I thought you didn't have a pot at home, so you must have nothing to eat, so..."
Her voice stopped abruptly when she caught sight of the two bowls of dumplings on the table.
Ji Lianqi frowned and declined gently: "No need, Ranran, thank you for your kindness."
He turned his head and looked back at Ye Ying, "Ye Ying...has done something that I have a share in."
Lin Ranran stomped her feet unwillingly, and her two braids trembled as well.
"Brother Lian Qi, her dumplings are wrapped in such a horrible shape, are they edible? You should just eat mine!"
Then, he walked past Ji Lianqi, forced his way into the room and put the bowl of dumplings on the table.
Then, fearing that he would reject her again, she ran away without looking back.
Ji Lianqi returned to the dining table and looked at the extra bowl of dumplings, which looked better and more appetizing than the ones Ye Ying had made, and his lips were pursed into a line.
But the next moment, he picked up the dumpling made by Ye Ying.
"Ji Lianqi, what are you doing? You're leaving the good food behind and eating this shabby thing of mine!"
Ji Lianqi raised his eyes, swallowed the dumpling, and then said seriously:
"Ye Ying, even though I don't like you and have no feelings for you, I know it's wrong to do this."
Oh!
Ye Ying raised her eyebrows in surprise. This man is really good. He knows how to love himself and also knows how to avoid suspicion.
Since he behaved so well, she had to be more "generous".
She smiled and waved her hands, "Oh, it's okay. It's just a bowl of dumplings, eat it if you want."
Although she said so, Ye Ying's mouth corners were almost stretched to her ears.
Looks like a cat that stole some fish.
Ji Lianqi shook his head: "No, I'll give the dumplings back to Ranran after I finish eating."
Ye Ying was stunned: "Send it back?"
Ji Lianqi nodded, said nothing more, and continued eating the ugly dumplings in the bowl.
Ye Ying thought to herself: He is such a sincere person.
Ji Lianqi drank a sip of soup and suddenly remembered that there was no pot at home, so how did he cook the dumplings?
Thinking of this, he put down his chopsticks and looked at Ye Ying: "I remember there is no pot at home."
Speaking of this, Ye Ying has a lot to say.
"Oh! Don't mention it. It was only when I saw everyone taking the dumplings home to cook that I remembered that we didn't have a pot at home!"
"So, I asked the chef in the cafeteria to cook the dumplings for me!"
Our family...
Ji Lianqi looked a little strange, and he nodded slightly to show that he understood.
Ye Ying took the opportunity to suggest, "Ji Lianqi, why don't you also go and bring back a set of pots and pans? You can use the stove when you have nothing to do!"
"You want to cook?" Ji Lianqi was surprised.
Just making dumplings today had surprised him, but he didn't expect her to suggest starting a small stove.
He did not forget how lazy she was when she took care of the injured Ye Ning, and he could not help but have more doubts in his heart.
"Are you sure you're not in the heat of the moment?"
In response to Ji Lianqi's questioning, Ye Ying also expressed her understanding!
The original owner was lazy and gluttonous, and this image had been deeply engraved in his mind. He suddenly changed his personality. Who would believe it if he told it to others?
But she still decided to defend herself: "Brother, I'm really not hot for three minutes!"
"I really want to cook for myself. I want to eat meat."
Since she said so, Ji Lianqi did not ask any more questions and coldly spat out two words: "Tomorrow."
"Great! Then I can use any stove out there, right?"
Ji Lianqi nodded: "All can be used."
Ye Ying was delighted and decided to have a braised pork meal tomorrow to reward herself for her hard work in losing weight.
"Oh, by the way, Ji Lianqi." Ye Ying suddenly remembered Liu Juan's abnormal behavior today.
"I found Liu Juan very strange today. She didn't mock me like other people did. She generously gave me the leftover dumplings she had."
"I had a fight with her yesterday, and today... do you know what happened in between?"
Ji Lianqi's eyes changed slightly: "I don't know."
"Okay, okay, let's just assume that she realizes her mistake." Ye Ying waved her hands nonchalantly.
At this moment, someone suddenly knocked on the door.
Ye Ying was full and went to open the door.
When she saw Sun Lin standing outside, she was stunned for a moment and subconsciously thought that she was here to look for Ji Lianqi.
"Are you looking for Captain Ji? He's here, inside."
Sun Lin quickly explained: "Sister Ye Ying, I came to see you."
Then he handed the bag of fruit in his hand to Ye Ying.
"I used your dumpling filling this afternoon. Although you didn't say anything, I felt really embarrassed about it, so I thought... I'd bring you some fruit."
"It's just a little gift from me, please accept it!"
Ye Ying was completely confused by this unexpected thing.
Sun Lin has a round face and some baby fat. She doesn't look very old, probably in her early twenties.
Although she didn't treat me as an enemy like the other family members in the courtyard, she wasn't very close to me either. I didn't expect her to send me fruit.
"Sister Ye Ying?" Sun Lin thought Ye Ying didn't want to accept it, so she enthusiastically put the fruit closer and said, "Just accept it."
Sun Lin's enthusiasm made Ye Ying even more confused.
"This... it's not necessary, Sun Lin, you can take it back, it doesn't cost any money."
Sun Lin didn't give up, and said, "No, Sister Ye Ying. Or do you not want to eat fruit? Then I'll go back to the house and get you a bowl of dumplings."
As he was about to turn around and go back to the house, he was quickly pulled back by Ye Ying.
"Don't! Girl, please don't! Give it to me, give it to me."
There are already three bowls of dumplings on the table. Who wants another bowl?
"Oh! Okay!" Seeing that Ye Ying agreed, Sun Lin smiled and put the fruit in her hand, then hurried back to the house.
Ye Ying returned to the dining table with some fruit in her hand. "Here, some fruit after dinner. Eat it."
Ji Lianqi glanced at the bag of fruit, swallowed the last dumpling, picked up the bowl and gulped down a few mouthfuls of soup before saying, "It's strange that someone would send you fruit with your popularity."
Ye Ying wanted to retort, but when she saw the empty bowl without even any soup left, she blinked and said, "Wow, my good man, you even drank up all the soup?"
