After confirming their relationship, the two people's identities changed. They returned to the table and started eating. The atmosphere between them was less unfamiliar and more intimate than before.
"Shushu, have this. I saw you liked it before." Gu Mingjing picked up a piece of braised pork for Jianshu.
He had wanted to do this before, but his status did not allow it at that time. Now it is different. Shushu is his girlfriend, so picking up some food for her is nothing. There will be closer people in the future.
Looking at the braised pork in the bowl, Jianshu did not refuse and ate it with a smile on his face.
"It's very sweet and delicious." Jian Shu said to Gu Mingjing.
"Sweet?" Gu Mingjing was a little confused. He had eaten it before, so why didn't he find it sweet?
He picked up another piece of braised pork and tasted it, but still didn't find it sweet. Could it be that he and Shushu had different tastes?
Seeing Gu Mingjing take a sip with a puzzled look on his face, Jian Shu smiled and gave him a piece of braised pork with chopsticks. He said in a light tone, "Try it again?"
In an instant, Gu Mingjing's face turned red. He understood why Shushu said that the braised pork was sweet before. He now felt that the braised pork in the bowl was particularly sweet. It was so sweet that he felt like he was immersed in a honey jar.
Although he hasn't eaten the braised pork yet.
A blush appeared on the face of the banished immortal, as if a high and mighty immortal had been pulled down to the mortal world.
After admiring Gu Mingjing's embarrassed posture for a moment, Jian Shu propped up his chin with his left hand and looked at him mischievously, "Why don't you eat? Do you dislike me?"
"No, no, no." Gu Mingjing said hurriedly, fearing that Jianshu would misunderstand.
Then he thought of something and said with reluctance, "I just don't want to eat it. This is the dish Shushu picked for me."
"What's the big deal? I'll just keep serving you food. There are so many dishes left." Jian Shu said indifferently.
Gu Mingjing's eyes lit up when he heard this. "You said it, don't go back on your word. I'm waiting."
After saying that, he ate the piece of braised pork in one bite, then pushed the bowl forward slightly, looking at Jianshu with shining eyes and anticipation.
Jian Shu was stunned by Gu Mingjing's series of actions. Looking at the empty bowl in front of her and then at his expectant eyes, she was speechless. Was she being tricked?
"Shushu~" Gu Mingjing shouted.
Although she knew she was being tricked, what could she do? Could she deny what she had said herself?
Jianshu had no choice but to pick up some food for Gu Mingjing again, this time with a different target. But she didn't really have any objections. It was just picking up some food, and between couples, it was clearly a form of romantic interest.
"Shushu, you come and eat with us." Gu Mingjing happily picked up some food for Jianshu.
Shushu picked up food for him, and he picked up food for Shushu. To round it off, does this mean they are kissing?
In this way, the two of us picked up food with chopsticks, and in the last episode, the food we picked up ended up in each other's stomachs.
The food on the table was prepared by Meng Ying in advance, and it had actually gone cold after such a long time.
Fortunately, the weather is getting warmer now, so it’s okay to eat it cold, but the taste is not as good as before.
While eating, Jianshu discovered that the dishes Gu Mingjing picked for her were all her favorites. Even the dishes with ginger as an ingredient avoided ginger powder.
This was the first time the two of them met today. Uncle Zhao and Aunt Meng definitely wouldn't tell him about her preferences in advance. He was able to know it because he must have noticed it during dinner just now.
A warm feeling surged in Jianshu's heart. What could make people happier than being valued by others?
She also began to pay attention to Gu Mingjing's preferences, but she didn't know whether it was because he was not picky about food and liked everything, or for some other reason, but he ate the dishes that Jianshu picked up for him happily, and her preferences were completely invisible.
Jianshu had to give up this plan for the time being. There is still a long time, so I will pay attention to it later. There is no hope today.
As for asking him directly about his preferences, I haven't even considered it. Of course, I have to figure out how to do this myself. What's the point of asking? I can't be lazy just like that.
Besides, sometimes things that you put your heart into are more likely to be remembered. Similarly, hobbies that you discover on your own are more likely to be remembered deeply.
Gu Mingjing picked up another piece of scrambled eggs for Jianshu and said, "I see you like meat. I'll take you somewhere in a couple of days and let you taste the chef's cooking."
"Where are we going? The state-owned restaurant?" Jian Shu asked curiously.
Gu Mingjing shook his head and said, "No, it's a friend of mine. His ancestors were royal chefs, so he has a good cooking skill. But for some reason, he didn't go to a state-owned restaurant. He opened a private restaurant at home. Not many people know about it, and those who go there are only acquaintances."
"The royal chef, his cooking skills must be very good. I can't miss it. So when should we go?" Jian Shu was a little impatient.
She has nothing to do now, so she likes to satisfy her appetite and usually makes all kinds of delicious food for herself.
But her cooking skills are there, which are pretty good among ordinary people, but definitely cannot be compared with the royal chef.
Gu Mingjing said, "Wait until you have a weekend off. He just happened to have gathered all the ingredients for Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, so we can feast on it."
"Buddha Jumps Over the Wall?" Jianshu was a little surprised.
When the altar was opened, the aroma of meat spread to the neighbors, and when the Buddha heard it, he gave up his meditation and jumped over the wall to come.
How many people don't know the reputation of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall? And the person who made it is a descendant of the imperial chef, so the taste must be even more extraordinary. Jianshu is looking forward to the arrival of the weekend.
Seeing her like this, Gu Mingjing smiled and said, "Want to eat?"
"I do." Jian Shu said with a greedy look on his face.
"Then eat more when the time comes. The ingredients are rich and not easy to get together. I have known him for so many years and have only eaten here twice. I don't know when the next time will be." Gu Mingjing said.
"Yeah." Jianshu nodded repeatedly.
There are dozens of ingredients in Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, which is not easy to get together in this day and age. In addition, it is very troublesome to process these ingredients, so it is not so simple to make it once.
Now that she finally has the chance, she must try it.
"Have you and your friend known each other since childhood?" Jian Shu asked curiously.
She knew that Gu Mingjing was from Beijing, but he left Beijing when he was very young. She must have known this friend for a long time.
Gu Mingjing nodded, "We've known each other for more than ten years."
"You two have a really good relationship. You can still maintain it even after not seeing each other for so many years." Jianshu sighed.
She had many good friends when she was studying, but she gradually lost contact with most of them after they graduated and went their separate ways.
You have to know that now is not like the future, where there are telephones, QQ, WeChat and other means of contact. If you want to contact someone, you basically just write a letter.
The information age has brought convenience to people, but people have also become more and more impetuous; and this era of relying on correspondence has an innocence that will be lost later.
The transportation and mail are slow, but the feelings are far-reaching.
