"Um."
Upon receiving a positive response, Sheng Yi was so excited that he rushed over and hugged her tightly.
"That's great, thank you so much for giving me a chance to pursue you. Thank you so much."
Zhu Qinghao was held very tightly by him. At first, she was a little flustered, but then she reached out and gently patted his back.
After a long while, Sheng Yi realized that he had been hugging the person a little too tightly, so he quickly loosened his grip a bit, but he couldn't bear to let go completely.
"Sorry, okay, I got a little excited. Did I hurt you?"
Zhu Qinghao was initially at a loss, but after accepting the situation, she secretly longed for Sheng Yi's embrace, so she didn't struggle outwards, but simply shook her head gently.
"No, Brother Shengyi, it doesn't hurt."
After hugging her for a while, Sheng Yi let go of her.
"So, can you now accept my kindness with a clear conscience? After all, those were things I willingly gave in order to pursue Hao Hao."
Zhu Qinghao almost couldn't keep up with her train of thought.
One second they were talking about love, and the next they jumped straight back to the previous topic.
Zhu Qing thought about it for a moment and did not refuse.
"Okay, then I accept your kindness to me. If one day I want to give you something, you can't refuse, okay?"
Upon hearing that Zhu Qinghao also wanted to give him something, Sheng Yi nodded eagerly.
"Okay! It's a deal!"
Just kidding, he's probably hoping for more, how could he possibly refuse?
After things were clarified, the atmosphere between the two changed.
It's as if the previous distance has suddenly shrunk a lot.
"Alright, let's eat quickly, or the dumplings will get cold."
"Okay, sure."
"..."
After dinner, the two of them made a lot of steamed buns and dumplings together. Of course, Sheng Yi did most of the work, while Zhu Qinghao followed along and learned from him.
Zhu Qing was very diligent in her studies, but she just didn't seem to have the talent; perfectly good dumplings and buns would always fall apart in her hands.
She tried to comfort herself by saying that she was just starting to learn and her skills were still developing, which was why this situation occurred.
In front of Sheng Yi, she certainly didn't want to appear too incompetent, so she tried her best to learn.
But as she continued wrapping the dumplings, her skills still didn't improve, which gradually made her look anxious.
Sheng Yi saw it all, but he didn't have the slightest intention to laugh; he just felt very sorry for her.
"It's alright, don't worry, we're not in a hurry. Don't be fooled by how fast I wrap them; I've just done it a lot, and practice makes perfect."
You've only just started learning, take your time. If you really can't, it's not like you absolutely have to know it. You still have me, right?
Zhu Qinghao looked helplessly at the dumpling in her hand that had broken again, then turned to stare intently at him.
"Brother Sheng Yi, did you spend a long time learning how to make dumplings before?"
The person who was making dumplings suddenly stopped, recalling how they had only made a few before they learned how to make them, but still didn't say anything.
"Yes, that should be it, but I don't quite remember. I think I learned to make dumplings when I went back to my maternal grandmother's house before, by my aunt."
"However, most of them are not good memories, so I have almost forgotten them. The only good thing is that I learned the craft."
When Zhu Qing heard the first part, he thought his aunt was quite nice, but after hearing the rest, he realized that wasn't the case.
She didn't know the reason, and if Sheng Yi didn't want to talk about it, she didn't want to pry, so she simply changed the subject.
