Having been here for almost half a year, Su Jingjing suddenly had a strong craving for hot pot.
"Second sister-in-law, what is hot pot?"
Li Yuehuan was astonished. Could it be some kind of divine delicacy again?
Su Jingjing explained simply, "Well, it's when the whole family gathers around a pot of soup base, puts in various side dishes to cook, and finally eats them with dipping sauce."
"Eating hot pot in winter is really satisfying."
In later generations, she frequently visited hot pot restaurants or enjoyed hot pot alone at home, finding it both delicious and convenient.
Eating while scrolling through short videos, life is so pleasant.
Li Yuehuan was tempted; she was a foodie at heart.
"Then let's eat tonight."
Su Jingjing sat down beside the children and chuckled softly, "Silly girl, there's no meat at home."
"I'll discuss it with your second brother tonight."
Li Yuehuan leaned closer, coaxing, "Second sister-in-law, you're so kind."
"I've gained several pounds since I started living here."
My second sister-in-law cooks so many different kinds of dishes that it's hard to imagine how she could stay slim.
Yuan Yuan used to be a skinny monkey, but now she's been fattened up and is so adorable.
Su Jingjing was a little uncomfortable with her sister-in-law's overly sentimental behavior.
"It's good to be a little chubby; girls look prettier when they're plump."
The entire Li family is good-looking, and Huanhuan is a beautiful little girl.
Li Yuehuan pouted, "That's true. My mother also said that girls shouldn't be too thin."
Seeing the brother and sister watching TV intently on the sofa, she whispered in Su Jingjing's ear, "Second sister-in-law, do you really like second brother?"
"What does it feel like to like someone?"
At home, she often saw her parents and her eldest brother and sister-in-law being affectionate together, and when she came to the family compound, her second brother and sister-in-law did the same.
Su Jingjing nodded firmly, "Why are you suddenly asking this kind of question?"
Her eyes flickered. "Do you have a boy you like at school?"
"No...where is it?"
Li Yuehuan felt guilty and avoided Su Jingjing's gaze.
To hide his panic, he added, "I was just curious."
Su Jingjing pondered to herself that Huanhuan was in the stage of budding feelings, so it wasn't surprising that she had a boy she liked.
"If you like someone, your whole emotions will be affected by them. When you see them, your heart will pound like a deer. If you don't see them for two days, you will feel unmotivated to do anything."
Li Yuehuan pricked up her ears and listened with great interest, but her heart was filled with mixed feelings.
She seemed to say exactly the same thing as her second sister-in-law.
Su Jingjing saw through the girl's thoughts at a glance and patted her shoulder gently, "It's normal to have a boy you like, as long as it doesn't interfere with your studies."
But he doesn't seem to like me.
I even dislike her a little.
Li Yuehuan's shoulders slumped, and her expression grew increasingly somber.
"who is he?"
Su Jingjing pressed for details, as she was also quite worried that the girl might be deceived.
Li Yuehuan blushed. "Second sister-in-law, I'm telling you this in secret, but you must not let second brother know."
If this gets back to her father, she'll be in deep trouble.
Su Jingjing agreed.
"He was the top student in the next class; his grades were exceptionally good."
When Lu Shen is mentioned, Li Yuehuan is like a young girl experiencing her first love.
The next second she wilted again. "I greeted him several times, but he ignored me. Maybe he doesn't even know who I am."
Sigh, what can you do when her grades are so bad? Top students hang out with other top students.
"Second sister-in-law, how can I get a chance to talk to him?"
Su Jingjing immediately understood; Huanhuan still had a crush on her.
"Try talking to him about the problem; he might respond."
Li Yuehuan frowned. "But my grades are terrible. I get crushed in a heartbeat."
If he knew she was an idiot, wouldn't he despise her even more?
Su Jingjing winked and said, "Aren't you good at Chinese?"
"That's true."
She cheered up again and went to see him on Monday.
That evening, Su Jingjing played with her three little ones in the second bedroom. Half an hour passed before she returned to the master bedroom.
On the comfortable and soft bed, Li Hanting sat on the edge, his thin pajamas unable to conceal his bulging muscles, which rose and fell with his breath.
He closed his eyes gently, his long eyelashes casting a shadow, his handsome face as calm as still water.
Hearing the noise at the door, his narrow, dark eyes, which had been closed, suddenly opened.
"I'm back."
Su Jingjing paused in closing the door, as if she could sense the jealousy in her voice.
I closed the door, took small steps, and went over to hug him.
He deliberately said, "I smell vinegar."
Li Hanting lowered his eyes for a moment, "Wife, I've been waiting for you for half an hour."
Su Jingjing was taken aback. What was she waiting for?
He frowned, his voice hoarse, "We have less and less time to be intimate these days."
His wife felt that he had a lot of work to do and didn't want him to stay up too late.
Even though Su Jingjing was a little embarrassed to say it outright, she was still a bit embarrassed.
She looked him up and down, and said in a sweet and gentle voice, "Then I'll be more mindful of my time in the future."
Li Hanting picked her up, spun her around, pinned her beneath him, and lowered his head to bite her soft lips.
Su Jingjing's eyes widened. "Wait a minute."
Li Hanting stepped back slightly, watching her quietly, his eyes filled with undisguised desire.
"I'm planning to have hot pot tomorrow. We have vegetables at home, but we're still short of meat."
Hot pot?
Li Hanting wasn't surprised by her new words. "I'll have the logistics department help me buy it tomorrow. What kind of meat do you need?"
Su Jingjing asked in surprise, "Can we ask the logistics department for help?"
Li Hanting explained slowly.
With so many people in a unit, the canteen's workload is considerable, so the logistics department goes out to purchase supplies every other day, and tomorrow is the perfect time.
Su Jingjing spread out her fingers and pointed them out one by one.
"Then I'll buy half a chicken to make the soup base, and a pound of beef and some shrimp too."
"By the way, you don't have any more meat tickets on you, do you? I'll go get them for you now."
The man will be leaving for training early tomorrow morning, and she was afraid she would forget about it.
Li Hanting held her tightly, not letting her leave even a step.
"I still have hostages on me."
"Ah Ting, don't you think I'm being a bit wasteful? Even ordinary people wouldn't dare to eat like this."
"Silly girl, I'm willing to spend any amount of money as long as you're happy."
In Li Hanting's view, men earn money so that women can spend it.
Tomorrow is a romantic phrase, but he said it so seriously, as if it were a matter of course.
"You're such a good husband, I love you to death."
Her slender fingers wrapped around his neck, and in the dim light, she mustered her courage and kissed him.
This was the first time his wife had ever said she loved him, and Li Hanting was overjoyed.
"Jingjing, I love you too."
He held her slender waist, his kiss landing on her red lips, gradually moving to her earlobes and neck, leaving no place untouched.
The man's warm breath brushed against her sensitive ear, causing her to tremble. She bit her lip and clung to his strong shoulders.
Li Hanting reached out and turned off the light, plunging the room into darkness, and the two embarked on a passionate love affair.
