While the fish was marinating, Ye Yun chopped some onions, chili peppers, garlic, and scallions—these were the seasonings for stir-frying the river fish.
Then he helped Lin Shuyue scoop out the rice porridge and set it aside to cool.
About 10 minutes later, Ye Yun took out the pot, poured in about half a pot of oil, and fried the river fish in the oil for a while before taking them out.
Next, pour the oil into a bowl; it can be used later.
Pour a little oil into the pot, add fermented bean paste and stir-fry until the oil turns red, then add oyster sauce and other seasonings. Finally, add the deep-fried fresh river fish to the pot and stir-fry a few times.
In the courtyard, Ye Yun and Lin Shuyue sat at a table with a basin on it containing a spicy stir-fried river delicacy.
While eating, Lin Shuyue praised, "You know so much! You cook delicious food every day, and I'm getting fat from all your cooking."
"You're not really fat, just a bit fuller. If it's really too much, I'll buy you a home cycling bike online in a few days, so you can exercise at home," Ye Yun said while eating.
Lin Shuyue's eyes lit up. "I can exercise at home! That's great, but... it must be very expensive!"
"It's not expensive; the cheaper ones are only around two or three hundred."
"Ah, two or three hundred? Then forget it!" Lin Shuyue shook her head.
"Sister Shuyue!" Ye Yun called out to her, and said seriously, "When it comes to maintaining beauty and figure, no amount of money is too expensive. Think about Sister Suyue, she takes care of herself almost every day, with beauty treatments today and yoga tomorrow. She spends nearly ten or twenty thousand yuan a month on beauty. Compared to that, what is buying you a car to exercise? As long as you can stick to exercising, that's better than anything else."
Seeing how serious Ye Yun was, Lin Shuyue smiled slightly and nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you, anything for you."
"This isn't for me, it's for yourself, to make you more beautiful and help you maintain a good figure," Ye Yun corrected.
“But I did all this for you!” Lin Shuyue blurted out.
The two looked at each other, and Ye Yun couldn't help but smile. He picked up a shrimp with his chopsticks and held it to her mouth.
"I understand, go ahead and eat!"
"Mmm." Lin Shuyue opened her mouth to accept his feeding and ate with relish.
After dinner, Ye Yun was about to take a shower when he saw Lin Shuyue heading to her room, and he stopped her.
"Don't come to my room tonight."
"Why?" Lin Shuyue looked at him with some disappointment.
Ye Yun coughed lightly and said, "My room is by the main entrance, so it's easy for people outside to hear, so... I'll stay inside!"
Lin Shuyue was slightly taken aback, but quickly understood what he meant. She blushed and nodded, saying, "Okay, let's go to my room then!"
After saying that, she turned and went back into the house.
Looking at Lin Shuyue's graceful figure, Ye Yun was moved, and at the same time, he remembered what Su Yue had told him.
"Sister Su Yue is right. We've been in this ambiguous relationship for so many years, it should be okay, right?" Ye Yun thought to herself.
Then he went into the bathroom to take a shower.
Having made up his mind, Ye Yun took the time to wash himself clean, afraid of leaving a bad impression on Lin Shuyue.
After returning to his room and changing into clean clothes, Ye Yun pushed open Lin Shuyue's door.
The room was pitch black; no lights were on, and even the curtains were drawn.
Ye Yun gently closed and locked the door, then walked to the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed).
Although the room was dark, one could still vaguely see the beauty lying on the kang (a heated brick bed), and in the quiet, one could even hear her faint, slightly tense breathing.
In the darkness, Ye Yun cautiously reached out his hand, and then heard the other person's voice become urgent.
Not only Lin Shuyue, Ye Yun was also nervous. Although he had already been trained by Su Yue, he was still a little nervous when facing Lin Shuyue, who was a gentle and mature woman unlike Su Yue. He didn't know how to act and was afraid of upsetting her.
After some groping around, the two of them were no longer so nervous. At that moment, Lin Shuyue's voice came from the darkness.
"Let's get on the kang (heated brick bed)!"
This was an invitation, and Ye Yun naturally wouldn't refuse.
"good."
Taking off his shoes, Ye Yun climbed onto the kang (a heated brick bed) and knelt in front of Lin Shuyue. Looking at her alluring body, he didn't know what to do.
It's like a native rural person eating Western food for the first time—a mix of anticipation and nervousness, and the possibility of being laughed at by others.
"What are you standing there for? Come here!" A delicate hand grabbed Ye Yun's collar and pulled him down.
Ye Yun fell onto Lin Shuyue, but he reacted quickly and braced himself with his hands, preventing himself from crushing her.
The two were close together, their noses barely touching, their breaths spraying onto each other's faces.
Although it was dark, they could still see each other's eyes.
The atmosphere was beautiful and warm; this was the kind of love Ye Yun had been hoping for and dreaming of.
Pfft...
Suddenly, Lin Shuyue chuckled and teased, "You're a man, why are you more nervous than me?"
Faced with Lin Shuyue's ridicule, Ye Yun said awkwardly, "This has nothing to do with men and women. I don't have much experience in this area, so it's natural to be nervous."
"No experience? That doesn't make sense, you and Su Yue..."
"That's different."
"What's different?"
“She is her, you are you, you are… different,” Ye Yun explained stiffly.
There was not a trace of artistic conception in his words, yet they sounded incredibly vivid.
Lin Shuyue chuckled softly, then wrapped her arms around Ye Yun's neck and said, "I like your explanation. She is her, and I am me. But I'm curious, why do you get nervous around me?"
"Because I like it."
"Like her? Don't you like her too? What kind of reason is that?"
“Liking someone is different. Sister Su Yue actively seduced me, but Sister Shu Yue, you…”
"I was seducing you too!" Lin Shuyue teased.
Ye Yun shook his head. "No, you are temptation."
Is there a difference between seduction and enticement?
"In my opinion, they are different. Temptation is less purposeful, while seduction is more proactive and assertive."
Listening to Ye Yun's explanation, Lin Shuyue found it very interesting. She was nervous at first, but after hearing this, she realized that Ye Yun was actually just as nervous as she was, or even more nervous.
Lin Shuyue leaned close to Ye Yun's ear and said in a seductive voice, "So... you think I'm not proactive enough, not enough to arouse your passion?"
"Of course not," Ye Yun quickly denied. "What I mean is, you two give me different feelings. Sister Su Yue is passionate like fire, while you are gentle like water. When I'm facing someone so different from her, I feel a little nervous. I'm afraid I won't do something right, afraid of hurting you, afraid of making you unhappy, afraid..."
