Chapter 1123 Mr. Qi's Clingy Wife 52
Song Jinhuan took it as a polite remark, thinking that if the other party didn't like it, she could handle it all by herself.
So I took out butter, toast, and two eggs from the refrigerator.
"Could you help me rinse the pot in water?" Song Jinhuan cracked two eggs and used chopsticks to break them up.
Qi Lu picked up a small pot and walked to the sink. After rinsing it with water and drying it, he turned and asked, "Turn on a low heat and add the butter?"
Song Jinhuan was dipping the toast into the egg mixture when she said, "Okay."
Qi Lu moved a step to the side, almost blocking her behind him.
Butter tastes slightly different from cooking oil when it's added to the pan.
Even if there's no water in the pot, it will still splatter.
Qi Lu frowned slightly, and only after the butter had completely melted and stopped bouncing around did he make room for Song Jinhuan.
The toast coated in egg wash was baked until golden brown in butter, filling the entire kitchen with a milky aroma.
Her fair and slender hands gripped the spatula, constantly stirring the contents of the pan.
His fair, rosy face was full of seriousness.
The mung bean pot made a "popping" sound, with boiling bubbles constantly pushing against the lid.
The man in the sharp suit stood a step behind the woman, and almost all eyes were on her.
Occasionally, I would share some with the bubbling mung bean porridge next to me.
The scene is filled with warmth.
Breakfast is served half an hour later.
The two quietly enjoyed the peaceful moment, neither of them speaking.
Emotional progress: 70.
After breakfast, Song Jinhuan was covered in sweat. She went back to her bedroom, took a shower, and changed into a beige dress.
Qi Lu sat in his study, his work efficiency extremely low, frequently glancing towards the door until a figure in off-white appeared.
Only then did my restless heart settle down.
For the renovation of the new bookstore, the contractor will contact Song Jinhuan directly.
So the two of them each occupied a corner of the study and dealt with their own matters.
Qi Lu couldn't help but glance at it again and again.
Then, with a smile playing on his lips, he got to work.
It turns out that work can also bring joy.
After finishing some tasks, Song Jinhuan felt thirsty. As she got up and passed by Qi Lu, she noticed that he was too busy to even notice her getting up.
So she braced herself on the desk with one hand, leaned half her body over, let her low ponytail fall from her left shoulder, and tapped her bent fingers lightly twice in front of his eyes.
Qi Lu looked up. "Hmm?"
"I'll get you some water, do you want some?"
Qi Lu nodded reservedly, "Thank you."
Song Jinhuan walked out of the study, unaware that Qi Lu had already stood up and was doing an exaggerated stretching exercise.
Qi Lu was in an extremely good mood, not because the other person poured him water, but because the other person was thinking of him.
When I need to do something, I'll ask him.
He felt excited by the feeling of being remembered and cared for.
He was so excited that he almost forgot himself.
He seemed to be finding it increasingly difficult to suppress his desire to be close to her.
Emotional progress: 72.
In contrast to the calm and tranquility here, the Xia family has encountered another major event.
Xia Mingxuan was exposed for abusing his position to sexually harass students.
His secondary social media account was exposed and his malicious comments made him a target of public criticism.
Phrases like "money in your pocket, students in bed" or "physical education is one of them" are used to describe this phenomenon.
There are quite a few people who admire and agree with his views.
It's hard to imagine that such a person is, on the surface, a university professor who is good-looking, rich, and knowledgeable.
Things escalated too quickly.
The Xia family didn't even have time to do any public relations before Xia Mingxuan was taken away for investigation.
It is said that several parents of students jointly called the police.
