Chapter 12: Eat it, take revenge
After washing her face, Su Yan came out of the bathroom and looked at the man standing in the living room. Her eyelids twitched.
He was so dirty that if he sat on the sofa, she would have to wash it again.
He Ji waved at her and said, "Go get my clothes and pants. I need to take a shower."
Su Yan held it in for a long time but couldn't bring herself to ask him to go back and wash.
Watching He Ji enter the bathroom, she was so angry that she almost went crazy.
Listening to the sound of water splashing in the bathroom, she finally went to get her clothes and pants.
She hung her clothes and pants on the bathroom door handle, raised her hand and knocked on the door, "I put the clothes on the door handle."
The person inside didn't respond, and she didn't wait, but turned around and went out again.
If it was any later, those aunties would have closed their stalls and she wouldn't be able to buy any good food.
When He Ji came out, he didn't see anyone. He knew she must have gone out. He didn't chase her out, but dried himself and put on his clothes.
While drying my hair, I turned on the TV and watched the real estate advertisements on TV, wondering if it was time to buy my own house.
He has been traveling around for so many years and has never thought about settling down, so naturally he has never thought about buying a house.
But now it's different. He met a child he likes and wants to have a home with her.
Stroking his wet hair, he was wondering which house among the ones under construction would be suitable.
He hadn't decided on a house yet when Su Yan, who had gone out to buy groceries, came back. He turned around and looked at her, baring his teeth.
"Kid, why didn't you get me some underwear just now? It's going to hurt if I don't wear underwear, you know?"
Su Yan pursed her lips, her face tense, and tried hard to control herself.
She knew she had to wear underwear, but how could a girl like her have the nerve to take a grown man's underwear?
She didn't answer, changed her shoes, and went into the kitchen with the dishes.
He Ji stopped watching TV and followed her, leaning against the kitchen door frame to look at her.
"Kid, guess if I'm wearing any underwear right now."
"Click"
As soon as he finished speaking, a fish slipped from Su Yan's hand and hit her foot.
Just as He Ji was about to pick it up, Su Yan jumped back as if she had been electrocuted, and ran to the bathroom before he could react.
He Tingting was still stretched out in the air, listening to the sound of water splashing from the bathroom, and smiled with gritted teeth.
It’s really hard to change a child’s habit of being clean.
He picked up the fish, cleaned it up, put it aside, and went to the bathroom.
Su Yan squatted on the ground, squeezed some hand sanitizer onto her feet, and was rubbing them vigorously.
When she saw He Ji coming in, she paused for two seconds, then turned around, leaving He Ji with only the dark back of his head.
He Ji stood behind her without saying anything until she washed twice before he stepped forward to stop her.
"If you rub it any further, the skin will break."
Su Yan withdrew her hand that was about to take the hand sanitizer, looked at her red feet, and frowned tightly.
She particularly hates the fishy smell of raw fish. When she was a child, she was teased by her classmates after school and several fish were thrown on her. She vomited twice before she even returned home.
Seeing how concerned she was, He Ji approached and squatted down, leaning over to smell her feet. "It's not fishy anymore, it smells very good."
Sakura-scented hand soap will of course smell good after washing.
He was not lying, but Su Yan seemed to be frozen. He Ji had stood up, but she had not yet come to her senses.
This was the first time in her life that someone had sniffed her feet. Although her feet had just been washed, she still found it a little unacceptable.
Seeing her dazed, He Ji reached out and flicked her forehead, "Come back to your soul, it's not a big deal, how could it be worth losing your soul?"
Su Yan still didn't speak, but she moved. She looked up and stared at He Ji for two full minutes, then walked out silently like a ghost.
Her mind was in a mess and it wasn't enough for her to sort out what had just happened. She had to go back to her room and think carefully about what to do next.
After watching her enter the room, He Ji leaned against the wall, lit a cigarette, and hesitated whether he should go in and take her down before she came to her senses.
Although if you think about it carefully, they have known each other for a short time and the number of times they have met can be counted, he seems to have no patience left.
I feel so angry just thinking about him every day, let alone looking at him.
The reason she could endure for so long was because of her young age.
After finishing a cigarette, he crushed it out with his hand and threw it away, and the cigarette butt fell steadily into the trash can.
Before entering the kitchen, he thought it would be better to wait until the child was no longer so hesitant, and then he would take ruthless action.
Just be patient for now. Anyway, the person is already in your hunting circle and can't run away.
If He Ji knew that his hesitation would prevent him from seeing the child in the house for even seven months, he would not only regret it so much, but would even give his current self a good beating.
But he knew nothing now. Not only did he not know anything, he was also happily busy in the kitchen.
Su Yan hid in the house for more than half an hour, and only moved when the aroma of food came in through the crack in the door.
However, thinking of the shameful scene just now, she didn't dare to go out.
She was stubborn and even though her stomach had growled several times, she still had no intention of going out.
Finally, He Ji couldn't help it anymore. He stood outside the door and said in the softest and gentlest voice that if she didn't come out, he would change her room door tomorrow. Only then did she come out reluctantly.
The door was opened, and a small face the size of a palm appeared first, with a pair of watery eyes showing resistance.
He Ji poked his cheek with his tongue and suddenly felt his hands itchy. He didn't want to feel wronged anymore and reached out to pinch her face.
He didn't use too much force, but a red mark was still left on Su Yan's face. He made a click of his tongue.
"Children's skin is so tender that it will leave red marks if touched lightly."
Su Yan was stunned after having her face pinched. She didn't look down until he pulled her out of the room.
His hands were dark and had calluses on the palms. When he grabbed her wrist, the calluses scratched her, causing a slight sting.
His hands don't look clean, but rather give people a dirty feeling.
Su Yan felt strange, her cleanliness seemed to have no effect on him.
Being held like this, she didn't even want to struggle, let alone have the urge to wash her hands.
Pulling her to the dining table, He Ji handed her the chopsticks and pointed to the braised fish in front of her.
"Eat it, revenge!"
Su Yan: ...
Even though her reaction just now was quite big, it was her own problem. She was a living person, so she shouldn't bother with a fish, right?
She wanted to say it was nothing, but when she met He Ji's eyes, she couldn't say anything. She could only take the chopsticks and pick up the fish head.
He Ji was just about to say that she would eat it when he saw her hand turn and the fish head fell into his bowl.
