Qiao Lubai picked up a piece of beef and put it in Mu Qiao's bowl, "Drinking and eating meat, this is the standard."
"You're quite knowledgeable." Mu Qiao picked up the chopsticks, picked up the beef and stuffed it into his mouth.
The braised beef he prepared had a unique flavor that suited Mu Qiao's taste very much.
Mu Qiao praised, "After five years, your cooking skills have improved a lot."
Qiao Lubai didn't delve into Mu Qiao's deliberate change of subject. He just followed her words and said, "I'm just learning on the spot, so my cooking skills are not as good as yours."
Mu Qiao was stunned. He praised her cooking skills?
It seems that he has never eaten the food she cooked in the past five years?
"You just heard it from others." Mu Qiao reminded him with a faint smile.
Unexpectedly, Qiao Lubai said, "Fengying told me that Liang Yue, who called you yesterday, told everyone that the food you cook is delicious and he often goes to your house for free meals."
...
...
His words sounded like he was praising her cooking skills, but there was always a strange meaning.
"See, you just heard it from others." Mu Qiao didn't delve into it further. She just thought that Qiao Lubai was praising her.
"Besides hearsay, what else can I do?" Qiao Lubai's face looked a little depressed. "I caused all this myself. I deserve what I have become."
He said as he picked up the glass and drank it all.
Mu Qiao wanted to stop him, but before he could say anything, his glass was empty.
He poured himself another glass of wine, and Mu Qiao quickly dissuaded him, "Qiao Lubai, your body is still recovering, don't drink too much."
"This kind of white wine has an advantage. It is not harmful to the body and is also good for health." Qiao Lubai drank the wine in the glass again.
After two glasses of wine, he finally felt more confident. He looked at Mu Qiao and asked, "Mu Qiao, have you ever liked anyone else in the past five years?"
He suddenly asked this question, and Mu Qiao was stunned. What did he mean?
Before Mu Qiao could speak, Qiao Lubai said seriously, "You are so outstanding, there must be many people pursuing you. If it weren't for the two children, you probably wouldn't have returned to Yishui City, right?"
What are you talking about?
The more Mu Qiao listened, the more angry he became.
She suddenly stood up, pointed at Qiao Lubai's nose, and said angrily, "Qiao Lubai, who do you think I, Mu Qiao, am? Do you think I will agree if someone pursues me?"
Qiao Lubai also stood up and looked at her, feeling very uncomfortable, especially about Liang Yue. He actually went to Mu Qiao's house for meals every night and was very close to Mu Qiao for five years.
Although Qiao Lubai knew that it was wrong to feel such unfounded jealousy, he was jealous because Liang Yue, an outsider, could do something that he could not.
Yes, he was jealous, he was blinded by jealousy and he couldn't help but care.
But he also knew that these were all in the past.
And because it is in the past tense, he is just jealous.
He didn't want to be like this, but he couldn't control himself at all.
"That Liang Yue, do you know why he was transferred to Yishui City?" Qiao Lubai was finally blinded by jealousy.
In fact, it wasn't entirely jealousy, he just wanted Mu Qiao to see some things clearly.
If Mu Qiao rejected Liang Yue after knowing that Liang Yue liked her, he could just confess his feelings directly.
If Mu Qiao knew that Liang Yue came to Yishui City because of her, he would not be able to interfere if she had any hesitation.
Qiao Lubai still has his own pride and would never interfere with other people's affairs.
Mu Qiao shook his head, "I don't know!"
"He actually didn't have to transfer the Snow Wolf, but he came all the way here for you." Qiao Lubai made it clear.
Mu Qiao took a deep breath. Heaven and earth could testify that she and Liang Tuan were innocent. They were just comrades-in-arms and colleagues, and there was absolutely no ambiguous relationship between them.
She couldn't understand why Qiao Lubai said this to her?
Did he think that she and Liang Tuan had a romantic relationship?
Mu Qiao didn't want Qiao Lubai to misunderstand her, so she immediately explained, "Liang Tuan and I are just colleagues, comrades-in-arms, and neighbors. You can't just assign a strange relationship between him and me. I don't agree with that."
The most taboo thing in the army is promiscuous relationships between men and women, and she, Mu Qiao, will definitely not take the lead in violating the rules and regulations.
Qiao Lubai looked into Mu Qiao's eyes for a long time, finally heaved a sigh of relief, sat back in the dining chair, and laughed foolishly.
Mu Qiao looked at him and muttered to himself, "This man has been sleeping for two years. Has he become stupid?"
After grinning foolishly, Qiao Lubai drank two more glasses of wine, each in one gulp, very generously.
It was too late for Mu Qiao to try to persuade them and he could only watch.
After four glasses of red wine, Qiao Lubai felt a little dizzy.
He stood up and walked to Mu Qiao's side, pulled out the dining chair next to her, and sat very close to her.
Mu Qiao looked at him sideways and asked, "Why are you so close to me all of a sudden? What do you want to do?"
"I think..." Two faint blushes appeared on Qiao Lubai's handsome face, and there was a faint aroma of alcohol in his breath.
Mu Qiao stared at him in confusion, "What are you thinking about?"
"I..." He hesitated for a long time, and suddenly said, "I want to give you something, but that thing is not at home, it is in the Hunter School."
"And then?" Mu Qiao asked.
Qiao Lubai suddenly moved closer to her, and a warm breath accompanied by the aroma of wine came to her nose. Mu Qiao blinked uncomfortably and leaned back instinctively to keep a relatively safe distance from him.
He seemed to be drunk and was irrational at this moment. She couldn't take advantage of him.
"I can't say too much for now." This was the surprise he gave her, and it wouldn't be a surprise if he told her about it now.
Mu Qiao didn't understand why he kept it a secret, but she wasn't the type to get to the bottom of things. "Then don't say any more. Go sit across from me and eat some meat to sober you up. I'll make you a bowl of sobering soup."
Mu Qiao was about to get up and go to the kitchen. When she turned around, Qiao Lubai grabbed her wrist.
"Why are you pulling me?" Mu Qiao was a little surprised, looked at him and questioned.
"I'm not drunk, don't go make the hangover soup, I want to talk to you about what happened between us."
Qiao Lubai spoke clearly and did not look drunk. Mu Qiao pried his hands apart, sat down, looked at him, and asked, "How do you want to talk?"
"I want to pursue you!" Qiao Lubai finally said it, thanks to the four glasses of wine just now, otherwise, he would not have the courage.
On the battlefield, Qiao Lubai was extremely courageous, but in front of Mu Qiao, he gave in.
Mu Qiao was stunned for three seconds. She didn't expect happiness to come so suddenly.
She thought Qiao Lubai would remain reserved with her, but she didn't expect that after a few drinks, his true colors would show.
Wine is indeed a good thing, and those who dare not express their feelings deserve it!
Now that he has opened his mouth to pursue her, how should she react?
Should I be reserved and say I'll think about it, or should I agree right away?
