Chapter 151 "I always listen to my wife."
After washing up, Wen Duo took the medicine box and carefully untied the bandage on Ji Huaishen's body. She held her breath and carefully observed the wound.
I saw that the originally hideous wound had healed and was covered with a thin layer of dark red scab. The worrying redness and swelling around it had also subsided a lot, leaving only a faint pink halo.
She breathed a long, relieved sigh, and her heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down. Her fingertips gently and lovingly stroked the intact skin around the wound, as if a feather was brushing past.
"Finally, all the scabs have healed..." There was a slight tremor and relief in her voice that she herself didn't even notice.
Ji Huaishen lowered his eyes, looking at her focused and relieved little face, a smile appeared in his eyes.
He reached out and rubbed her delicate cheek with the back of his fingertips, feeling the soft touch:
"No need to worry this time?"
His touch brought a slightly itchy sensation, as if a small electric current was running through. Wen Duo subconsciously turned her head, but failed to avoid it. Instead, the warmth from his fingertips caused her ears to turn red.
She pretended to be calm and put the medical dressing back on him. Her face was stern, but her tone was so soft and intimidating that it had no deterrent effect at all:
"You have to be careful though! If the scab is covered, be careful not to touch or rub it. If it itches, don't scratch it. Don't be careless!"
"good,"
Ji Huaishen withdrew his hand obediently, his tone was 100% indulgent:
"I always listen to my wife."
Wen Duo blushed and her heart skipped a beat when Ji Huaishen suddenly called her "wife".
She subconsciously wanted to refute, but swallowed the words back when they reached her lips.
They have indeed obtained their marriage certificate, so it is normal for her to call him wife.
In the end, she just snorted proudly and used the action of packing up the medicine box to hide her burning cheeks:
"Let's go, let's eat."
"Okay, wife."
Ji Huaishen responded readily and called out deliberately, his deep voice filled with a honey-like smile.
Wen Duo felt the heat in her ears suddenly spread like wildfire. She turned around abruptly and raised her little fist, which had no deterrent effect at all:
"Stop yelling!"
Ji Huaishen immediately put on an aggrieved look:
"Why? Aren't you my wife?"
Wen Duo was choked by these words and couldn't utter a word of rebuttal. Her cheeks puffed up, and in the end she could only mutter softly, her eyes drifting away:
"Well, you can't keep yelling..."
This guy didn’t realize that she was shy!
Ji Huaishen certainly saw it, but he did it on purpose.
However, it’s been good enough so far. What if he continues to tease the kitten and it becomes shy and refuses to eat with him?
So he stood up contentedly, took her hand very naturally, passed his fingertips through her fingers, and held them tightly.
Wen Duo tried to pull back gently, but was held tighter. The scorching heat from his palm penetrated her skin and went straight into her heart.
snort!
Bad guy!
The two walked to the restaurant hand in hand.
It was still a gloomy sky outside, and all the light came from the crystal chandelier.
Warm and soft light sprinkled on the table, casting warm spots of light on the polished long table, and the air was filled with the tempting aroma of food.
Exquisite porcelain plates are filled with a variety of breakfasts, including translucent crystal shrimp dumplings, steaming crab meat dumplings, and a few refreshing side dishes. The chef's skills are as excellent as ever.
As soon as they sat down, Ji Huaishen began to serve the dishes attentively.
"Wife, try this shrimp dumpling with your favorite bamboo shoot filling."
"Honey, be careful with this quicksand bun, it's hot. Let me blow it on you."
"Wife, I've peeled the quail eggs, you can eat them."
"Wife..."
Wen Duo felt as if his head was filled with countless "wives", buzzing, and every cell became numb and soft in his voice.
She lowered her head and ate the food in small bites. It tasted delicious, but she couldn't take her attention away from the man beside her who kept calling her "wife".
He called out so naturally, so smoothly, as if he had called out that name a thousand times, with an unquestionable intimacy and possessiveness, and every syllable struck at the tip of her heart.
She could feel his focused gaze always on her, with a scorching warmth.
"Ji Huaishen..."
She finally couldn't help it, raised her watery eyes and glanced at him with a reproachful look, her voice soft and tender:
"Eat your meal well."
"I'm eating well,"
Ji Huaishen looked innocent and served her another small bowl of shredded chicken porridge:
"Taking care of my wife's meals is also my responsibility."
He deliberately emphasized the three words "serious matters", and the teasing and fondness in his eyes almost drowned her.
Wen Duo's face was so red that it seemed to bleed, but her heart felt like a honey pot had been overturned, and the sweet feeling spread throughout her limbs.
She no longer tried to stop him, but just silently accepted all his meticulous care.
Wen Duo ate the food Ji Huaishen fed her, but as she ate, she just...
I always feel like something is missing.
It was clearly the same ingredients, and the presentation was even more beautiful, but compared to what Ji Huaishen made himself, it always felt like it lacked the warmth that could reach the soul and the precision that suited her taste buds.
It is a taste that belongs only to him and cannot be replaced by top-notch cooking skills.
She ate half a bowl of porridge, picked up a few refreshing side dishes, and put down her cutlery in a somewhat listless manner.
"What's wrong? You're eating so little?"
Ji Huaishen noticed her abnormality almost immediately and frowned slightly:
"Not to your liking? Whatever you want to eat, I'll ask the kitchen to redo it."
"no,"
Wen Duo shook her head, her eyes a little gloomy:
"Maybe I'm just... not very hungry."
Ji Huaishen stared at her for a moment, his eyes swept across the almost untouched food in front of her, and fell on her slightly pouting lips, and suddenly he understood.
He leaned forward slightly, lowered his voice, and asked with a hint of coaxing:
"Then I'll cook something for you. Just some simple noodles, it'll be ready soon."
When Wen Duo heard this, her eyes widened immediately, and she refused without thinking:
"No! Absolutely not! What did you say yesterday? You are not allowed to enter the kitchen or touch the spatula until your injury is healed! Ji Huaishen, you promised me!"
She was so anxious that she even reached out and grabbed his wrist, fearing that he would really stand up and go to the kitchen the next second.
Ji Huaishen just wanted to satisfy her every little thought and tried to fight for it:
"The wound has already scabbed over, just be careful and it will be fine..."
"No means no!"
Wen Duo's attitude was extremely firm. She even pointed at him with her index finger, trying her best to look fierce.
"Not even a little bit of risk! If you do this again, I'll be really angry! I'll ignore you for three days!"
Seeing her face tense and the genuine worry and fear in her eyes, Ji Huaishen's persistence instantly collapsed. He immediately raised his hands in surrender, his tone sincere and soothing:
"Okay, I'll listen to my wife. I won't do it anymore, I definitely won't touch it, and I'll wait for my wife's approval, okay?"
Wen Duo looked at Ji Huaishen's attitude, and the anger she pretended to have was immediately exposed. She couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth slightly, but then quickly suppressed it, pulled back her hand, and pretended to be serious:
"......That's better. Eat yours quickly, it's getting cold."
She picked up the spoon again, scooped a spoonful of porridge into her mouth, and savored it carefully.
Well, although it’s not as good as what he did, it’s actually... not bad.
