Yingyue and Huocheng returned home.
Huo Cheng went to add coal to the stove and told her to come inside and take off all her clothes.
He added coal and immediately prepared hot water for Yingyue to take a bath.
"I'm not cold, Huo Cheng, don't be in such a hurry."
Yingyue, who had taken off all her clothes inside the house, changed into clean clothes and came out of the room carrying her wet clothes.
She felt bad that some water had gotten on the wooden floor, so she wiped it clean with her clothes before going out to find Huo Cheng.
Seeing Huo Cheng rushing around anxiously, Yingyue told him not to be in such a hurry.
Yingyue wasn't lying. Her complexion and the temperature of her hands didn't resemble someone who had just emerged from the seawater beneath an icy hole.
She appeared perfectly normal, showing no signs of anything amiss.
Huo Cheng was filled with many thoughts, but he wouldn't choose to ask her at this moment.
"Let her soak in hot water for a while first. I'll make ginger soup for Yueyue to dispel the cold."
"Ginger soup..."
Upon hearing the name, Yingyue wrinkled her nose.
"It's spicy and doesn't taste good."
Strangely enough, she can eat dishes with chili peppers, and even thinks that dishes stir-fried with chili peppers taste better in winter.
But she just couldn't stand the taste of ginger soup.
The spiciness of ginger is different from that of chili peppers.
The little Pixiu is also a picky eater.
Huo Cheng looked at her wrinkled little face and chuckled, pinching her warm cheek. "Then I'll add a small piece of brown sugar, okay?"
"Would two pieces be okay?"
Eating sugar can be addictive.
After the other party compromises and lets you have your way, it's inevitable that they'll take advantage of the situation and make even bigger demands.
Huo Cheng's lips curled up in a smile as she amused him.
"good."
"Add two more, small ones."
"Can Yueyue go take a bath now?"
The tall man spoke gently with his eyes and brows.
Yingyue nodded and hummed in agreement.
"OK."
"Then remember to add less ginger, otherwise the brown sugar will be wasted."
After she finished speaking, she didn't forget to stand on tiptoe and give Huo Cheng a kiss on the cheek.
"Thank you for your hard work!"
The little Pixiu might not be very good at working because it lacks organization and can't manage its own affairs.
But she was very good at making Huo Cheng happy and acting cute in front of him.
After all, a fluffy little Pixiu is only needed to bring good luck, so what work does it need to do?
Moreover, Huo Cheng couldn't bear to see her hands used for work.
"good."
"Go take a bath and soak your hair while you're at it."
She jumped into the icy hole to rescue people, and her hair got completely wet. Huo Cheng was still worried that she would get a fever if she didn't get rid of the cold air.
Yingyue obediently agreed.
There's nothing I can't agree to.
She smiled and went to the bathroom.
Huo Cheng saw her close the door before saying, "Call me if you need anything," and then turned and went back to the kitchen to make ginger soup.
Huo Cheng, who originally planned to add more ginger and less sugar, ultimately couldn't control himself.
I added an extra piece of candy.
His little girl just wanted an extra piece of candy; he controlled it, and nothing serious happened.
Yingyue took a bath and washed her hair, and Huo Cheng's ginger soup was ready.
I filled a bowl and placed it on the table beside me. After a while, Yingyue will be able to drink it.
Yingyue came out of the bathroom, her wet hair wrapped in a towel.
After soaking in hot water, her cheeks were fair with a rosy glow, and her eyes were clear and bright.
"Huo Cheng, is the ginger soup ready? I can smell a really strong aroma."
She walked toward the kitchen while talking.
Upon seeing this, Huo Cheng quickly went over and pulled the person into the kitchen, where he sat down in front of the stove.
"You need to dry your hair."
As she spoke, she took the towel from Yingyue's hand and slowly dried her wet hair.
The two were talking in front of the stove.
Yingyue, who was able to jump into the sea to save people, was now lying lazily on Huo Cheng's lap like a boneless person.
"Huo Cheng, what are we going to do with the two fish I caught?"
"That fish is huge! Can we invite Xiaoqing and her brother-in-law over for dinner tonight?"
Yingyue was thinking about her own food.
He never expected that his reaction of jumping into the icy water and coming out as if nothing had happened would have such a huge impact on Huo Cheng.
Huo Cheng softly agreed.
He moved gently, looking down at the girl who was resting her head on his lap, "Yueyue."
"Huh? What's up?"
"I……"
Huo Cheng didn't know how to start the conversation.
Yingyue's curiosity was piqued instead.
Do you have something to ask me?
Why aren't you saying anything? You could have just asked me!
"If you don't tell me, I won't know what you're going to ask."
She tried to get up as she spoke.
Huo Cheng told her not to move around.
"It's nothing major, I just wanted to ask, how did you train to be such a good swimmer?"
How could someone come out of icy water and still have the same body temperature as someone on the shore?
Yingyue blinked. "I didn't learn it from anyone. I was born with it."
"Huo Cheng, do you want to learn? I can teach you!"
Huo Cheng was misunderstood.
He explained softly, "No."
"Yueyue, how does it feel when you're in the water?"
What does it feel like to be in the water?
Yingyue thought about it seriously for a moment, "I'm hungry, I want to catch fish, I want to catch lots and lots of fish."
"Besides being hungry, are there any other feelings?"
After much deliberation, Huo Cheng decided to make things clear.
Only when he knew the truth could he properly warn this silly girl not to rashly reveal his secret to everyone.
