Chapter 202: Fighting for Favor
Holding his little wife in his arms, Si Ming instantly became a lot tougher.
These words were not meant to ask Ye Xiao and Yun Che for a favor, but to inform them.
After saying this, without giving Ye Xiao and Yun Che a chance to refute, he carried Ye Jiaojiao back to the bedroom.
He slammed the door shut and locked it.
The whole process happened so quickly that when Ye Jiaojiao came to her senses, she had already been stuffed into the quilt by Si Ming, with only her little head sticking out. "A Ming?"
Ye Jiaojiao arched her back in bed, and Si Ming sat down beside her, brushing her hair aside. "Did Jiaojiao talk to Yun Che for a long time last night?"
"Yeah." Ye Jiaojiao nodded.
Although we didn't chat, but practiced sword fighting all night, it was almost the same.
Thinking of the sword practice she had done all night, Ye Jiaojiao's face showed a distressed expression. Seeing this, Si Ming's eyes deepened a little, and his tone was filled with uneasiness that he himself did not realize: "I finally met Senior Brother. Jiaojiao should be very happy, right? I wonder what happy things you talked about last night."
"A Ming, are you feeling uneasy?" After two seconds of silence in the room, Ye Jiaojiao suddenly spoke, catching Si Ming off guard: "What?"
Si Ming didn't react and asked subconsciously. After he asked, he realized that he was actually feeling uneasy, and his Jiaojiao also noticed it.
"Jiaojiao." Si Ming didn't want Ye Jiaojiao to misunderstand, and hurried to explain. Ye Jiaojiao pursed her lips and looked deeply into Si Ming's eyes. Suddenly, she stretched out her fingers and pressed them against Si Ming's lips: "A Ming, you are worried that I will leave, or that I will change my attitude because of the existence of my senior brother."
Is it that obvious?
Si Ming smiled bitterly and did not deny it anymore.
His Jiaojiao came from another world, and the bond between ex-husband and ex-wife that he had originally thought of did not exist at all. No matter how strong Si Ming was when facing Yun Che, he began to feel uneasy when it came to Jiaojiao.
Worried that his Jiaojiao might suddenly disappear one day.
Worried that his Jiaojiao went to a place he could never go to
One was lying down and the other was sitting, the two of them were very close to each other.
Ye Jiaojiao took in all of Si Ming's reactions, a hint of bitterness and sweetness flashing across her face. Then, as if she hadn't seen anything, she tilted her head back and gave Si Ming a bright smile: "It's not obvious. Ah Ming hid it very well. It's mainly because I'm smart that I noticed Ah Ming's worry."
Ye Jiaojiao's smile was very contagious, reaching deep into Si Ming's heart. He was startled at first, then smiled: "Jiaojiao, why are you praising yourself so bluntly?"
"Don't you think I'm not smart?" Seeing Si Ming laugh, Ye Jiaojiao was delighted and worked harder to make jokes. She pouted deliberately, pretending to be angry, and shrank into the quilt to avoid looking at him. Si Ming was amused again, pulled the quilt aside, and fished her out: "Well, my Jiaojiao is the smartest."
“That’s it!!!” Ye Jiaojiao made a fuss for quite a while, and during that time, she did not forget to tell Si Ming why she did not sleep well last night and why she was punished by Yun Che.
Si Ming frowned when he learned that Ye Jiaojiao had only slept for an hour, and planned to have a good "chat" with his brother-in-law later.
Even if Jiaojiao makes a mistake, she cannot be physically punished.
No matter how serious the matter is, the most she can be punished with is not being able to eat dessert for the whole morning.
How can you punish someone by not letting them sleep?
Si Ming thought so, completely forgetting what devilish methods he usually used to punish his subordinates.
"A Ming, why don't we go out and take a look? I have prepared a large table of delicious food for you today. Don't let Senior Brother and Ye Xiao and the others ruin it." Thinking of the morning tea she prepared for her Taoist partner, Ye Jiaojiao was a little worried. Si Ming didn't want to ruin Ye Jiaojiao's kindness, so he agreed.
"A Ming, you should go out first. I'm going to wash my face and wake up." Ye Jiaojiao got up from the bed before she had time to warm the quilt. She asked Si Ming to go out first. Si Ming responded and went out first.
The moment the door closed, the smile on Ye Jiaojiao's face disappeared.
There were stars twinkling in the pair of deer eyes hidden by long eyelashes.
She made Ah Ming feel insecure.
A monk who makes his fellow Taoists feel insecure is not a good person.
otherwise.
She moved in with Ming?
If we stay together every day, Ming won’t feel uneasy, right?
Um!
That’s a good idea!
I just wonder if Ah Ming will think she is too reckless.
After all, her Ah Ming is so upright, so honest.
Ye Jiaojiao was thinking in her mind while wandering to the bathroom.
She washed her face and tied her waist-length hair back into a neat high ponytail.
After cleaning up and coming out, Ye Jiaojiao saw her Ah Ming and Ye Xiao in the living room. Then she heard the noise coming from the kitchen and walked over. Yun Che looked up and saw her. He smiled and said, "Junior Sister, I made some other breakfast dishes that you like. I didn't touch the ones you made."
"Thank you for your help, Senior Brother." Ye Jiaojiao and her third senior brother were both greedy people. They often troubled Senior Brother to make food for them. Ye Jiaojiao felt warm in her heart: "Senior Brother, let me take care of the rest."
"It's not a bother. I've been cooking for you for so many years and I'm already used to it." Yun Che moved aside and gave his seat to Ye Jiaojiao. After saying this, he did not leave and deliberately glanced in the direction of Si Ming.
At the kitchen door.
Receiving the hostility and boasting from his brother-in-law, Si Ming pursed his lips and remained silent.
Learning cooking skills is of utmost importance and is urgent.
In just a short while, Yun Che cooked a pot of porridge and made three pastries. In addition to the rice rolls and sweet and sour dumplings that Ye Jiaojiao had made earlier, she estimated and took into account the appetites of the three men in the family, so she also made a stir-fried beef noodles, fried fish cakes, and a golden taro and shrimp roll.
After breakfast was ready, everyone sat down in turn. As soon as Ye Jiaojiao approached, the three men who were already seated straightened up at the same time, causing Ye Jiaojiao to pause and look back and forth between them several times.
Is this still the atmosphere for breakfast?
Why did she feel like it was a bit like a practicum before going to the battlefield?
Ye Xiao and Yun Che didn't know when they ended up on the same side.
When they sat down, they deliberately left a seat empty between them. When the younger Ye Xiao saw Ye Jiaojiao looking over, he waved to her openly, saying that she had worked hard cooking and asked her to come over and sit down quickly.
Looking at Si Ming sitting quietly alone at the other end of the dining table, Ye Jiaojiao didn't respond to Ye Xiao's words. She turned around and sat down next to her Taoist partner with confidence, facing the creepy eyes of her senior brother and Ye Xiao's gradually distorted facial features.
After sitting down, Ye Jiaojiao glanced at the table and took the lead in picking up a piece of sweet and sour cake for Si Ming: "A Ming, try this, it's very sweet."
"Okay." Si Ming picked up the sweet and thin cake and put it into his mouth to sip it. After three seconds, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Ye Jiaojiao. A cold smile came out of his throat: "It's very sweet. I like it very much."
"If you like it, just eat more." Ye Jiaojiao couldn't bear it anymore and turned her head to avoid her Ah Ming's burning gaze.
She always felt that when her Ah Ming said "sweet" and "liked", he was referring to her and not Tian Bodiao, but she had no evidence.
