By the time I got home from the supermarket, it was already past eight or nine o'clock in the evening.
This meal could easily be eaten as a late-night snack.
There are only the two of them in this family, and they have to support themselves in everything.
Xuan Mingyu carried a large bag into the house, and Bai Xiaoruo helped carry one bag as well. Just as she got the bag in her hand, before she could even take it out of the trunk, Xuan Mingyu snatched the large bag from her hand.
"Didn't I tell you to sit on the sofa? I'll do it."
"It's too hard for you to carry all this by yourself. I want to help too." Bai Xiaoruo had already taken off the coat she had worn outside and put it on the sofa inside. She had just rolled up her sleeves when Xuan Mingyu put down the bag in his hand, grabbed Bai Xiaoruo's arm, and threw her back inside. In this cold weather, it was one thing to take off her coat, but to dare to roll up her sleeves was really asking for a beating.
Bai Xiaoru sat on the sofa with an unhappy expression. She had hands and feet and was no longer feeling nauseous, but he wouldn't let her do anything. It was too boring to just sit there like that.
Xuan Mingyu was already busy in the kitchen. Bai Xiaoruo took out the blue bear apron from the supermarket bag and quickly ran to the kitchen to get it for Xuan Mingyu.
"You forgot to wear this."
He would look adorable in this.
Xuan Mingyu glanced at the bear apron in Bai Xiaoruo's hand with disdain, then reluctantly took it and put it on.
Bai Xiaoruo also picked up the pink rabbit apron hanging on the wall and put it on. She had promised to cook him something delicious tonight, so she couldn't just sit outside doing nothing.
The rice is already cooking; all that's left is to make soup and a few side dishes.
After Bai Xiaoruo finished putting on her apron and turned around, Xuan Mingyu had also finished putting it on.
This apron wasn't actually short; if Bai Xiaoruo wore it, it would at least reach his knees. But on him, it only covered half of his thighs. His tall frame paired with this childish bear apron looked even more comical than one might imagine.
Looking at it this way, her pink bunny apron and his blue bear apron actually match quite well, almost like they're wearing couple outfits.
Bai Xiaoruo went to the living room, picked up her phone, and returned to the kitchen, looking at him with bright eyes, "Can I take a picture with you?"
When I flew to M country last time, I really wanted to take a picture with him, but because he disagreed, Bai Xiaoruo couldn't take one. The only memento left was the side profile picture of him that I secretly took on the plane.
They didn't take any photos when they got married, and they didn't even get to have their wedding photos taken, leaving them with so many regrets.
To date, apart from that composite marriage certificate photo, there is nothing else.
"Just one, okay? Just one." She held up one finger.
Honestly, taking photos is something that Xuan Mingyu hates the most and has never been able to overcome since he returned to L City from elementary school. That's why he always travels with several bodyguards, so that if he runs into paparazzi, he can use the bodyguards to block their view.
But looking at Bai Xiaoruo's pitiful eyes, I really couldn't bear it.
It's not really that difficult, as long as she doesn't post it randomly.
"Let's get this straight, no random posting."
"Yes, yes, I promise." Bai Xiaoru nodded vigorously, already impatient.
This is the first time I've taken a photo with him.
Because of the height difference between them, finding the right angle is extremely difficult.
When you manage to capture his entire face, you can only see half of her head. And when you finally manage to capture her entire face, you can only capture half of his head.
Bai Xiaoruo tried her best to stand on tiptoe and hold her phone high, but she got tired in no time.
I took pictures for ages but couldn't get anything out of them.
Hsien Mingyu put his arm around her and took the phone from her hand with his other hand. "Look at the camera."
"Um?"
Before Bai Xiaoruo could react, the instant his eyes met the phone camera, he quickly pressed the shutter.
A photograph was born in this very natural way.
"Let me see, let me see." Bai Xiaoruo broke free from Xuan Mingyu's embrace, snatched the phone from his hand, and quickly looked at the photo she had just taken.
It has to be said that even in such a casual photo, with little expression on his face, he was still handsome from every angle, while she looked rather silly, staring wide-eyed at the camera without even having a chance to smile.
They made him look good in the photos, but she looks so stupid.
"No, no, I look so ugly, let's take another picture." Although she said that, Bai Xiaoruo still cherished the photo and couldn't bear to delete it. She wanted to carefully save all the photos related to him.
This time, Bai Xiaoruo was holding the phone. She grinned happily at the camera and kept pulling on Xian Mingyu, urging him to squat down a little and lower his head.
"Lower, lower still."
Hsien Ming-yu cooperated well with her; just taking a photo made her so happy, she's really easy to please.
Finally, after taking nearly ten photos in similar poses, it was finally over.
Bai Xiaoruo gripped her phone tightly, looking at it over and over again, thoroughly enjoying it.
When I have some free time in a few days, I'll take the photos out to get them developed, then frame them and put them in a picture frame.
I can't get enough of looking at it; I wish I could hang it right above my bed tonight.
While they were taking pictures, the rice was cooked, but the side dishes hadn't even started yet.
Bai Xiaoruo and Xuan Mingyu worked together methodically. She was in charge of stewing soup, while Xuan Mingyu did all the stir-frying, chopping, and washing of vegetables. Although there was a range hood in the kitchen, there was still a little bit of smell coming up. Fearing that she would feel nauseous if she smelled too much oily smoke, Xuan Mingyu didn't dare let her get too close to the wok.
