Zong Jia felt a tightness in his heart as she spoke, her breath tickling him.
He squeezed her hand a little tighter. "Don't cause trouble."
Jiang Xiaoli felt his body tense and couldn't help but chuckle, "Zong Jiayu, you're so cute."
The person who was praised for being cute was slightly annoyed and threatened, "Little Pear, if you provoke me again, you'll regret it!"
Jiang Xiaoli tilted her head to look at him. In the dim light, his jawline appeared even more angular, highlighting his high nose bridge, tightly pursed lips, and sexy Adam's apple.
She swallowed hard and called out in a hoarse voice, "Zong Jiayu."
He turned to look at her. "What's wrong? Do you want some water?"
Jiang Xiaoli grabbed his collar and kissed him on the lips.
Then she pretended to be calm and said, "Yeah, it's nothing."
Zong Jiayu was stunned for a few seconds before he reacted. He chuckled and leaned over, his usually cool and gentle voice now becoming indescribably alluring and seductive, "Little Pear, is one enough? Want to try again?"
Jiang Xiaoli felt a tingling sensation all over her body from hearing that voice, and she nodded subconsciously.
The next second, his soft lips pressed against hers.
They separated in just two or three seconds, but they could both feel each other's excited heartbeats.
Zong Jia sat down in his seat, and Jiang Xiaoli reached out and touched her face; it was incredibly hot!
Neither of them really paid attention to the rest of the movie; their minds were wandering elsewhere. When the movie ended, Jiang Xiaoli noticed that Zong Jia's hand, which was holding hers, was warmer than usual.
After leaving the movie theater, the two tacitly put the incident that had just happened out of their minds.
Zong Jiayu stood on a step lower than her and looked at her. "Shall we go home or go somewhere else to look around?"
Jiang Xiaoli tilted her head and looked at his watch. "It's 5:30. Let's go home."
On the way, the two of them discussed that Li Guizhi and Zhong Yuan might call them home soon.
When the two got home, the two Minesweeper players had changed the map from 5x5 to 10x10 and didn't even notice that the two had just gone out and returned.
Standing behind the two cobblers, Jiang Xiaoli spoke up just as Li Guizhi was about to light a bomb, "Don't light this one, this one is a bomb."
Li Guizhi and Zhong Yuan turned around in unison, "How could that be? We've both checked, this is definitely blank!"
Jiang Xiaoli shrugged. "If you don't believe me, then go ahead and order."
Zhong Yuan grabbed the mouse and clicked decisively, with Jiang Xiaoli providing the sound effects: "Bang—"
The computer screen displays "Game Over".
Li Guizhi stood up in a huff, "I'm not playing anymore, I'm going to cook. We spent the whole afternoon researching and she only glanced at it a few times, it's pointless!"
Zhong Yuan then pulled Jiang Xiaoli aside and asked curiously, "Xiaoli, how did you figure that out? Teach me!"
Jiang Xiaoli crossed her arms and said in a haughty manner, "Brother Yuan, I want to eat potato chips."
Zhong Yuan immediately brought her a bag of potato chips.
She then made another request, "Brother Yuan, I'm a little thirsty."
Zhong Yuan took a breath, turned around and poured her a glass of water.
Just as she spoke for the third time, "Brother Yuan, I..."
Li Guizhi interrupted her, "Xiao Yuan, don't spoil her! Let's figure it out ourselves later!"
Zhong Yuan snatched the potato chips from her hand, "That's right, that's right, take them if you want!"
Jiang Xiaoli shrugged. "Sigh, it's a pity I have so many tips and tricks for playing Minesweeper, but I don't have the chance to teach others. I'll just watch TV instead."
Zhong Yuan was very principled. After hitting the landmine three times in a row, he shoved the potato chips back into her hand and said, "Little Pear, just tell me about it!"
She chuckled, quickly sat down in front of the computer, and pointed at the Minesweeper screen. "Look, clicking on any of these will display a number, right? I'll teach you a trick, and you'll be good to go."
"There's a mnemonic? Tell me quickly." Zhong Yuan listened attentively.
Jiang Xiaoli said with a smile, "One sandwich, one has thunder; two sandwiches, one has thunder in the heart; two sandwiches, three have thunder; two sandwiches, two on the sides, two on the sides; three sandwiches, one in the middle; four sandwiches, one on the side."
Zhong Yuan was confused, so he simply found paper and pen and asked her to repeat it and write it down.
After memorizing the formula, Zhong Yuan waved his hand and said, "Alright, go play somewhere else. I'll study it myself."
Jiang Xiaoli immediately turned to Zong Jiayu and complained, "How could he be so ungrateful?"
Zong Jiayu laughed and said, "Isn't it because you compromised too quickly?"
Jiang Xiaoli stood behind Zhong Yuan, watching him play, and she noticed that he didn't understand the meaning of the rhyme at first and would make mistakes, but he quickly got the hang of it.
Just as Li Guizhi finished cooking, Zhong Yuan completed a 16x30 puzzle game. The computer screen displayed five words: "Congratulations! You won!"
Zhong Yuan excitedly called Li Guizhi over to see, "Auntie, the mnemonic that Little Pear taught me is really effective. Don't worry, I'll make sure you learn it!"
Li Guizhi glanced at her daughter and said, "You're something else!"
Jiang Xiaoli smiled, her eyes crinkling, "So, do you admire me?"
Zong Jia looked at the computer screen, feeling a little puzzled. Xiao Lizi had hardly ever used a computer, so how was she so good at it?
However, he quickly figured it out himself. Perhaps it was because of the year he had been in Kyoto; she was so smart, she would definitely learn it in no time.
Thinking of this, his furrowed brows relaxed. "Little Pear, tell me what your needs are for the website of Godmother's Private Kitchen, and I'll get it done as soon as possible."
She held a chopstick in her mouth. "Hmm... If I can't upload pictures, I'll upload a calendar. You can make reservations for the days we're open in advance. You can fill in notes on the reservation page. That's all for now. I'll tell you if I think of anything else."
Li Guizhi said with a smile, "None of you big companies have websites, but my little restaurant that hasn't even opened yet has one."
Jiang Xiaoli's eyes lit up. "That's right, 'Jiang Li Ji' doesn't have a website yet!"
Zong Jiayu immediately said, "Leave it to me."
She smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't take advantage of your company. Just make it look nice, and I'll pay for it!"
Zhong Yuan laughed out loud, "Little Pear, if only our company had clients as generous as you!"
Jiang Xiaoli raised an eyebrow, "A client like me is someone you can only dream of!"
Zhong Yuan replied, "Yes, you wouldn't believe it. When I go out to discuss collaborations, people who want to advertise on 'Sohu' are practically begging me to cut their prices in half."
She said she understood, "They must think that you can make money just by doing a few simple operations on the website and changing some data."
"Yes, yes, yes!" Zhong Yuan nodded repeatedly, "That's exactly what you said!"
Jiang Xiaoli sighed, "It's still a matter of user volume. To provide more comprehensive portal information, if one day everyone online chooses to use 'Search the World,' then you'll be in a dominant position in the negotiations."
