Chapter 117
In the spacious and bright kitchen, there came the sound of cutting vegetables.
To make scrambled eggs with tomatoes, you need to fry the eggs first, then add the tomatoes and fry them for a few times, mix them evenly, and finally add the seasoning.
Jiang Qiao looked at his finished product with satisfaction. Mm, it looks delicious.
Simmer the old duck soup over low heat, steam the multi-grain rice in a pressure cooker, and that’s enough to make two more dishes.
Eating lotus roots in this season is good for the body. She took out the lotus roots and prepared to wash them in the sink. When she was halfway through washing, the doorbell rang.
It had only been a few minutes since she sent a message to Lu Xun, and she was back already?
During the few seconds she went to open the door, the doorbell kept ringing, as if it would not stop until she opened the door.
Who is so annoying?
As soon as the door opened, the man didn't even raise his head and said naturally: "Auntie, is there anything to eat? Give me something, I——"
Following the white and slender calves, Gu Xing slowly raised his head, then widened his eyes: "You, you, you, why are you here!"
Jiang Qiao must have just taken a shower. He was wearing loose and simple home clothes. He looked as if he had lived here for many years.
Living together now?! Gu Xing was stunned. What was the point of tricking Jiang Qiao into living in the apartment?!
Jiang Qiao didn't expect it to be Gu Xing. Since he was her boss, Jiang Qiao wanted to politely invite him in.
Seeing his stupid expression of "Who am I, where am I?", Jiang Qiao couldn't keep up the fake smile on his face and rolled his eyes: "Auntie has asked for leave. There are snacks I bought on the table and cakes in the refrigerator. If you want to eat, take them yourself."
"Oh, thank you." Gu Xing spoke faster than his brain, and he reacted when he saw the girl walking towards the kitchen.
He immediately followed: "Hey, are you really living with Lu Xun?"
"First, I'm not saying hello," Jiang Qiao took the cleaned lotus root to the chopping board and said deliberately, "Second, why should I tell you?"
Gu Xing: “…………………………”
This familiar tone of being offensive is exactly the same as someone else's.
He snorted: "If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. I don't want to know."
Jiang Qiao ignored him and gave him a thumbs up with his back turned.
Be as perfunctory as you can.
Gu Xing: “…………………………”
"Boss Gu, what are you doing here?" Jiang Qiao asked him.
Gu Xing crossed his arms and imitated her words: "Why should I tell you?"
"Oh." Jiang Qiao said indifferently.
Gu Xing: “…………………………”
After waiting for a while, seeing that Jiang Qiao really didn't ask any more questions, he got anxious first, coughed twice, and said, "It's my grandfather's birthday the day after tomorrow, I came to send an invitation to Brother Xun."
As he said that, he took out a red gilded invitation from his trouser pocket and said in a proud tone: "You can come with Brother Xun when the time comes."
Jiang Qiao didn't buy his tricks: "You didn't give me an invitation, so I won't go."
Gu Xing: “…………………………”
He looked around and found a black pen on the TV cabinet. He opened the invitation and added two more words "Jiang Qiao" after the name "Lu Xun". Then he said to Jiang Qiao: "Is this okay? Why are you so stingy? I'm your boss!"
"Alright, alright." Jiang Qiao looked at the two crooked words and was amused. Seeing Gu Xing's wide eyes, she said in a serious tone, "I will definitely choose a good gift. Thank you, Boss Gu."
Only then did Gu Xing nod with satisfaction.
Jiang Qiao was confused as to how this serious young man from aristocratic family could get along with Lu Xun, as he always made himself look like an idiot.
But she didn't dare to ask, for fear that Gu Xing would go crazy again.
Jiang Qiao cooked very well. Gu Xing looked at the time and said that he wanted to eat here too. As if afraid that Jiang Qiao would refuse, he immediately left the kitchen and went to the living room.
On the table in the living room, there is a supermarket shopping bag with various snacks in it. The refrigerator is also full of food, including cakes and colorful drinks.
On the open balcony, the dim afterglow of the setting sun shines in. A snow-white kitten is sleeping soundly with its belly spread out. Occasionally, the aroma of cooking wafts from the kitchen.
There is normal human touch everywhere.
Gu Xing's expression became complicated for a moment, and he almost suspected that he had come to the wrong place.
Jiang Qiao finally finished stir-frying the last of the vegetables and heard a cat meowing in the living room.
When I went out to take a look, I saw that idiot Gu Xing was lying on the ground, with his whole face buried in the kitten's belly, rubbing back and forth, as if sucking it.
The "victim" 166 struggled angrily, but the enemy was too powerful and it had no choice but to be ravaged.
[Stupid human!!! Jiang Qiao! Get this guy away from me!!!], 166 roared.
Jiang Qiao: “……………………”
She slapped her forehead helplessly, turned around and left. She really didn't want to communicate with someone who was always crazy.
Behind him, 166's screams were even more "tragic."
Jiang Qiao was afraid that the food would get cold, so he prepared to serve it on the table later. He sent another message, asking where Lu Xun was.
I waited for more than ten minutes but received no response.
She thought Lu Xun must be busy.
At 6:10, the sound of a car was heard in the villa.
Jiang Qiao's eyes lit up, and she trotted out. Before she saw anyone getting off the car, she began to complain coquettishly: "Lu Xun, you are so slow..."
When the car door opened, the first thing that caught my eye was the man's slender and powerful long legs.
“………………………………”
Wow, his legs are 1.8 meters long and super strong, her boyfriend!
Jiang Qiao had admired enough and raised her little face. Just when she was about to show off how many dishes she had cooked, she bumped into the man's cold and emotionless black eyes.
Jiang Qiao was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked: "What's wrong?"
The girl's tone was a little doubtful. When she looked at me blankly, her beautiful and clear eyes showed obvious dependence and trust.
Her name is Jiang Qiao, and she is his lover, Lu Xun said to himself silently.
Many scenes of him and the girl flashed through his mind. He remembered every scene very clearly: love, separation, reunion...
He was clearly in the middle of it, but he was like an outsider, with no emotion in his heart.
He knew this was not normal.
Lu Xun lowered his eyelids and did not answer the girl's question. He said in a neutral voice, "Go in."
Jiang Qiao came back to his senses only after Lu Xun walked past him. He frowned and followed the man inside.
"Brother Xun, you are finally back. If you don't come back, I will eat up all the dishes made by your Jiang Xiaoqiao, and then you——"
Gu Xing's joking words came to an abrupt end when he saw the indifference on the man's face and the silent girl behind him.
This...is a quarrel?
He winked at Jiang Qiao, and Jiang Qiao waved his hands, indicating that he didn't know what happened either.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was a bit weird. Gu Xing really couldn't stand it and even regretted staying to eat for free.
The thank you list will be posted tomorrow.
