Chapter 18 Healing the Heart
Que Hongjin discovered that his wife's eyes were really unique, clean, clear, beautiful and lively, and also revealed an innate sense of intelligence. When she smiled, she was so bright and brilliant, like the sun, bright and full of vitality, which could make people inadvertently attracted to her.
The most important thing is that she seems to be able to speak. You can guess what she is thinking just by looking at her.
It was really interesting. She had never had such a look in her eyes before, only greed and chaos, as if she had become a completely different person deep in her soul.
When Que Hongjin thought of this, a shimmering light appeared in her picturesque and elegant eyes.
Qiao Su Luo's eyelashes trembled. After a moment's deliberation, she asked softly, "Were your wings deliberately cut off?"
"Does it hurt?"
The expression on Que Hongjin's face froze, and a dark light flashed in his eyes. In just a moment, he adjusted his mood, looked at her with a smile and said, "Wife, are you concerned about me and feel sorry for me?"
Was it the first time someone asked him if it hurt?
It seemed as if a ripple appeared in his heart.
Qiao Suluo met Que Hongjin's eyes, which were as gentle as water. When these eyes became gentle, they seemed to be naturally affectionate and could easily bewitch people's hearts.
Qiao Su Luo slightly avoided his gaze and said, "If your wings hurt, then working will hurt too."
"Why don't I do it? I can finish it in a little while in the evening."
Que Hongjin said slowly, "My wife, do you think I'm disabled?"
Qiao Su Luo quickly looked up at him and explained, "No, I definitely don't dislike you." She didn't want to hurt Que Hongjin's self-esteem.
Que Hongjin looked at her, his picturesque eyes concealing hazy emotions as he said, "Since my wife doesn't mind, then let me do this."
"My wife cares about me, and I don't want her to be tired."
Qiao Su Luo suddenly didn't know what to say.
If she continued talking, it would sound like sweet talk, but she couldn't take it seriously.
She said, "Then you do these first, but don't get too tired. I'll make lunch."
As she spoke, Qiao Su Luo walked out of the room and went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
Bai Qianluo was already sitting in the yard, washing the locust flowers in a basin of water.
He rolled up his sleeves, revealing his arms as white as jade, which shone brightly in the sunlight. When he was washing the locust flowers, the lines of his arms were so clear and beautiful.
He was concentrating on washing the locust flowers, his movements were elegant and noble, as if he was not working, but making some exquisite work of art. However, because of his work, his usually cold and aloof appearance had a touch of worldly air, like a beautiful ink painting, which made people couldn't help but be amazed.
As if sensing Qiao Suluo's footsteps, Bai Qianluo said in a cold voice, "My wife, if you need any vegetables washed, just leave it to me."
Qiao Su Luo came back to her senses and said, "Oh, then please help me wash the green peppers and tomatoes I bought."
She first washed the rice and then lit a fire to steam it.
After a while, Bai Qianluo washed the vegetables, and Qiao Suluo began to cut green peppers, tomatoes, onions and ginger.
The green onions were given by everyone in the tribe. Jiang didn't have any, so she exchanged a small piece from the space mall and also exchanged some sugar for them to make braised pork.
There are not many points left in the space, and she has to go to the mountain in the afternoon to find some mountain products so that she can exchange them for points from the space mall.
She first roasted the pork belly, scraped it off and washed it, then cut it into pieces and fried it in a pan, and then colored, seasoned and stewed it.
After Bai Qianluo washed the locust flowers, he took the initiative to go into the kitchen to help Qiao Suluo light the fire.
After stewing for about half an hour, Qiao Su Luo said, "Just simmer it on low heat."
"good."
Bai Qianluo's voice was clear and cold, like the melted snow in the mountains, very pleasant to hear.
When the braised pork is stewed, the aroma will spread.
Even Que Hongjin, who was concentrating on needlework in the room, could smell the fragrance.
He had to admit that the fragrance was intoxicating.
He had never smelled such delicious food before. Was it the smell of meat?
There was no fishy smell at all, which made him feel hungry instantly and he actually started looking forward to lunch.
Due to a moment of distraction, Que Hongjin accidentally pierced his finger with the needle in his hand. He looked at his finger with water droplets on it, took out a towel to wipe it, and shook his head with a smile.
He was actually distracted by the smell of food while doing needlework and even pricked his finger.
I haven't pricked my finger since I learned needlework as a child.
After the braised pork was done, Qiao Suluo scooped it out and prepared to stir-fry the pork with green peppers. However, looking at Bai Qianluo who was sitting quietly tending the fire, she picked up a piece of braised pork with her chopsticks and asked, "Do you want to taste it first?"
Bai Qianluo didn't move, "Let's eat together."
Qiao Su Luo felt that he was not down-to-earth at all. "What delicious food! People should have something they like. Even liking food is a hobby."
Only when you have things you like can you love this world. She always felt that Bai Qianluo was too indifferent.
I think this is not good.
I don’t know what he had been through before that caused him to become like this.
He is a white whale orc and should be able to swim, but now he can't swim. Is there something wrong with the white whale's physique?
Based on her previous life's memories, she seemed to have heard that he had health problems because he was harmed by someone.
So she blew on the braised pork and handed it to Bai Qianluo's mouth, "Open your mouth and taste it, it's really delicious."
"Really, I'm not lying to you."
A crisp and lively voice rang in my ears, with a sweet taste, and the aroma of food filled my nostrils.
He didn't know why, but as if he was really bewitched, he opened his mouth slightly, and in just a moment, the food was stuffed into his mouth.
At that moment, the mellow texture of the meat bloomed on the tip of the tongue. The meat was soft and tender, with a slight rebound when bitten, and a sweet fragrance. The aftertaste of the meat was still long in the throat...
This was the most delicious thing he had ever tasted. It was unbelievable that meat could be this delicious.
At this moment, even his breath was soaked in fragrance, so soothing that it made people want to sigh.
Qiao Su Luo looked at him expectantly and asked, "How is it? Is it delicious?"
At this moment, Bai Qianluo felt as if his heart was gently bumped, like a stone falling into calm water, breaking the cold and silent surface of the pond. His hand holding the firewood trembled slightly.
"It's delicious, and very tasty. Thank you, my wife."
Qiao Su Luo raised the corners of her lips and said with a smile, "You don't have to be so polite."
"Although I don't know what you've been through, I think there are still many beautiful things in this world, such as delicious food. Eating delicious food is such a joy."
“Think about the good things and don’t punish yourself for other people’s mistakes.”
"As the saying goes, revenge is never too late."
When Bai Qianluo heard these words, his body stiffened, as if thunder had passed by his ears.
Since being deprived of the white whale's blood power, all his talents have been lost. He can't even save himself if he falls into the water, and his eyes are even more...
No one had ever said anything like that to him.
Punish yourself?
He does seem to be punishing himself for the mistakes of others.
As for revenge, does his body still have the ability to take revenge?
