Island in the middle of the lake.
"How about this... Use a lower heat, and it will burn... Mmm, smells good..."
In the kitchen, Chu Li was leaning over the stove, fanning the rising steam with his hand. A fish was cooking in the soup.
Sprinkle with cilantro.
Delicious!
"Uncle, you can actually cook."
I can't tell.
Chu Dichi rolled up his sleeves, revealing two strong arms. His sharp brows were softened by the fact that he was holding a spatula and wearing an apron.
If the civil and military officials saw this, they would probably be so shocked that their jaws would drop.
The man took the chopsticks and said, "Try it."
"Tsk... I think we need to add a little more salt."
"Wait a minute it's going to be salty."
"I like salty food, a stronger flavor, add more."
"..."
The two of them were rustling around in the kitchen, and after they had eaten and drunk their fill, an hour had passed.
I tend to feel sleepy after meals.
Chu Li held on and didn't go back to the house. She went to the orchard to pick some bayberries, then went to the lake to step in the water for a while. She then broke off a few willow branches, coiled them up, and put a few flowers on her head.
Chu Dichi followed behind her, watching her jumping around lively, as if she had endless energy.
It’s good to be young.
"Xiaojiu, I'm a little tired."
Chu Li didn't even turn his head, "Then you should go back and rest first!"
He hesitated for a moment and said, "Looking at the weather, it might rain soon. Let's go back to the house first."
"Isn't it still raining?"
"It's not advisable to walk too much after dinner. Go back and rest for a while."
"I'm not tired."
She ran away, and when he stretched out his hand, he couldn't even catch the ribbon on her skirt.
good.
well.
See how long you can run.
Chu Dichi followed Chu Li patiently.
The island in the middle of the lake is not small. It has villas, orchards, rockery and streams, as well as a bamboo forest. It is built very elegantly and you can spend most of the day strolling around.
From noon to evening, Chu Li finally felt a little sleepy. As soon as she turned around, she saw the man looking at her with a smile:
"Tired?"
She choked up and said, "I'm not tired."
"Then run two more laps."
"OK."
She started to run, but the man grabbed her by the waist and carried her on his shoulders. "You have the energy, but you don't need to do anything else. I think you are just stalling for time."
Chu Li felt top-heavy and kicked his legs:
“What are you doing!”
"Put me down, it's not even dark yet!"
"It's dark?" Chu Di hesitated, "Did I say what to do?"
She paused.
"Or, what does Xiaojiu want to do? Oh~~ If Xiaojiu really wants it, I'm willing to do it at any time of day or night. Look at you, you're holding back, so how do I know what you want?"
"?"
Who thought?
Tell me, who is thinking this?
And bite back.
What a cheeky guy.
"When are we going back to Jiangnan City?"
Chu Dichi carried her back to the villa and kicked open the door. "It's not today anyway."
"tomorrow?"
"Not today anyway."
Chu Li glared at him, and after his feet touched the ground, he quickly washed up and went to bed, rolled up the quilt and turned over, "I'm sleepy, I can fall asleep as soon as I close my eyes."
Chu Dichi raised his eyebrows slightly, but was not in a hurry. He walked to the table, picked up the gift boxes he brought with him, opened one, and his brows immediately furrowed.
Empty.
Open the second one, still empty?
The third one, the fourth one...
The man's brows furrowed more and more. He looked at the empty box, then at the bulging little ball on the bed, and asked in a deep voice:
"Where are my things?"
Chu Li tilted his body to look over in confusion, "What is that?"
Chu Dichi clenched the empty box tightly, looking at her simple, confused and innocent face, the blue veins on the back of his hand almost popped out.
You ask even though you know the answer!
How dare she go behind his back and throw away all the things he had carefully prepared!
Now that I'm on an island, it's inconvenient to travel. Where can I get these things again?
His face darkened: "It's still early, don't sleep, let's go out for a walk."
Chu Li said "Huh":
"Uncle, didn't you keep telling me to go back to the room and rest? Aren't you sleepy anymore?"
"No! I'm sleepy!"
He is very energetic now!
Chu Li pouted: "You said you wanted to come back to rest, so I went back to the room with you early. But when we got back to the room, you were not sleepy anymore. Do you think you can change your face? How many people can tolerate your temper..."
Complaining quietly.
Chu Dichi took her wrist and took her out for a walk again. He had a gloomy face all the way and seemed very depressed. Looking at Chu Li again, her porcelain-white face was full of sunshine and exuded the breath of youth, like a flower in full bloom.
"Uncle, this garden is blooming beautifully."
"I'll pick some flowers for you."
"Are you happy?"
She ran into the garden giggling and picked a small bunch.
Chu Di glanced at her bright smiling face, her two rows of teeth were white and neat, her eyes were curved into crescents, and her good mood was so strong that she could hardly contain herself.
However, his eyes darkened, his thumb rubbed his index finger, and he said lightly:
"I'm naturally happy when I'm with Xiaojiu."
"Then why don't you smile? Are you born not to smile?"
Chu Li was a person who liked to watch the fun and didn't mind getting involved. He approached with the flower in his hand. The fragrant scent of the flower penetrated his nose, and a feeling of heat rose in his body...
Gradually, the smile on her face solidified...
