Chapter 125: Eat enough to have strength
Xi Jiu was worried that the splashing hot oil would burn Ruan Qi's hands that were around his waist, so he immediately grabbed her arm and took two steps back.
Then he picked up the lid and covered the pan with it in one swift movement.
The lid blocked out the air, and the flames in the pan gradually died down, leaving only the sizzling sound of hot oil.
Ruan Qi poked her head out from behind Xi Jiu, "Jiujiu..."
Before she could finish her words, the man suddenly turned around, put his arm through her legs, and picked her up with one hand as if she were holding a child.
Ruan Qi's field of vision instantly changed from about 1.6 meters to about 1.8 meters.
She subconsciously hugged the man's neck, looking confused, "Jiujiu?"
Xi Jiu's eyes were a little dark, and the veins on his arms as he held the little girl were bulging.
He left the kitchen silently, carried the little girl into the dining room, then squatted down and put her on the dining chair.
Ruan Qi was a little confused by his series of actions. She moved her little butt and tried to stand up.
"Don't move." Xi Jiu pinched her waist and pushed her back into the chair.
The man's eyes were as dark as ink, and there was a hint of danger in his voice, "Baby, if you want to eat, stop teasing me."
"?" Ruan Qi blinked, with a small question mark on her pretty face.
When did she tease him?
The little girl's expression was blank and innocent, and her charming peach blossom eyes were clear and pure, making the fire in people's hearts burn brighter and brighter.
Xi Jiu's eyes darkened, and the hand around her waist squeezed as if to punish her.
The man's strength wasn't great, but he squeezed Ruan Qi's spine so hard that it softened. The corners of her eyes instantly turned a light red, and her watery peach blossom eyes looked at him aggrievedly.
Xi Jiu became more and more angry as he was being stared at. The beast that was already unable to be suppressed roared and wanted to break out of the cage.
He didn't dare to stay any longer, so he took a deep breath and turned away in embarrassment.
Ruan Qi looked at the man's slightly flustered back, and her mind finally shifted from the birthday party to what would happen tonight.
She remembered the look Xi Jiu had given her just now, and an ambiguous blush slowly crept up her delicate little face.
Just then, the cell phone on the dining table vibrated.
[Sister Xiaodi: Soft Baby, how's the battle going? Has it started?]
Ruan Qi's hand holding the phone trembled.
She glanced guiltily at the figure in the kitchen and quickly typed a reply to Qin Qingdi.
[It's Xiaoqi: Not yet. Jiujiu is cooking.]
It's Xiao Qi: Sister Xiao Di, I'm a little nervous. [Rabbit shaking.jpg]
Qin Qingdi replied to the message very quickly.
[Sister Xiaodi: Don't be nervous. Have you read all the 50g tips I gave you? Have you done your homework?]
It's Xiao Qi: Yes.
[Sister Xiaodi: That's good. Don't be afraid, baby. It will pass if you grit your teeth and close your eyes.]
Ruan Qi: “…”
Even more scared.
She typed a line of words on the keyboard tremblingly.
[It's Xiao Qi: Sister Xiao Di, you're saying this as if I'm going to die...]
[Sister Xiaodi: Pah, pah, pah, what are you talking about on your birthday? Brother Jiu loves you so much, he will be very gentle.]
[Sister Xiaodi: But I still suggest you eat a full meal. A full meal will give you more strength, and at least you won't faint after just two rounds at Brother Jiu's hands.]
“…”
The little girl stared at the phone screen with gradually terrified eyes.
Fainted?!
Why did she faint?!
None of the physiology classes she had taken nor the 50-gigabyte hard drive secrets had told her that she would faint if she did this!
