Chapter 471 Roasted Sweet Potatoes



"You, you have to hold it in—" Jian Shu stuttered.

Gu Mingjing closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then let go of Jianshu's hand.

Then he opened his eyes and looked at her helplessly, "Please don't provoke me again. If there is a next time, I can't guarantee that I can still control myself."

As their relationship grew closer, his desire for Jianshu grew stronger, and his self-control became worse.

He is now trying his best to avoid any more intimate actions with Jianshu, for he is worried that he will lose control one day.

Unexpectedly, when he didn't provoke her, she came to provoke him.

Jian Shu withdrew his hand angrily, "Haha, isn't it because I wasn't paying attention for a moment that my hand didn't obey me? I don't know what happened to it." He put all the blame on his hand, which was really outrageous.

"Um, are you okay? Are you okay?" After a while, she asked hesitantly, her eyes glancing somewhere uncontrollably.

Gu Mingjing didn't understand at first, but when he saw her eyes, his face immediately darkened. He moved his legs to the side and said through gritted teeth, "It's okay, I'm fine!"

"Haha, I'm glad you're okay, I'm glad you're okay." Jian Shu laughed awkwardly. She was a little worried that she might end up hurting him, which would be bad.

Gu Mingjing's face darkened even further, and he said unhappily, "It's okay now, but if it happens a few more times, I'm afraid something will happen sooner or later."

Jianshu quickly raised her hand and assured: "Don't worry, I promise there won't be a next time." She didn't want to really make the person feel depressed.

Gu Mingjing looked unhappy and didn't want to continue talking about this topic. He stood up and cleared the dishes.

Jianshu admitted that he had made a mistake and wanted to perform well, so he quickly stood up to help.

Lunch was simple, there were only two bowls to wash, and it was easy to clean up.

"I'll wash it, I'll wash it." Jianshu grabbed the dishes and turned hurriedly to the kitchen.

Gu Mingjing followed behind him and went in with a cold face.

One person was washing dishes, another was steaming buns, everyone was doing their own thing, and no one spoke.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the kitchen was a little awkward.

After washing the dishes, Jianshu sat back at the stove, glancing at Gu Mingjing's face from time to time.

When he looked over, she quickly looked away, and when he turned his head away, she looked over again.

Retract your gaze and look over there.

Retract your gaze and look over there.

Take back...

see……

She wasn't tired from going back and forth, but Gu Mingjing was worried about her neck.

"Okay, if you want to watch, just watch it openly. Why are you doing it secretly?" Gu Mingjing said coldly.

Jian Shu looked at him cautiously, "Um, are you still angry?"

"No." The voice was cold.

Jianshu: ...He is still stubborn and obviously angry.

However, she also knew that she had said something she shouldn't have said before, so she could only try to curry favor with him. She leaned forward and said ingratiatingly, "I'm sorry, it's my fault. I promise there won't be a next time. Can you forgive me?"

"Talk to me, don't look so cold, I'm scared." She tugged at the corner of the man's clothes and whispered coquettishly.

Even though he knew her words were false, Gu Mingjing's expression changed when he heard the word "afraid".

He sighed and rubbed her head vigorously, "My life is in your hands." No matter what happened, he always had no way to deal with her.

"Hehe, I knew you were the best." Seeing that he was no longer angry, Jianshu immediately hugged his neck and happily kissed him on the face.

"You always do this." Gu Mingjing shook his head, with a mixture of helplessness and doting.

It's like this every time. I provoke him first, make him angry, then start to apologize. After coaxing him, I give him a sweet treat, so that I can't get angry even if I want to.

"Hehe!" Jianshu was thick-skinned and took it as a compliment.

So what if it's all the same old stuff? As long as it works, isn't that enough?

The two quarreled for a while but soon made up. It must be said that Jianshu had a way to deal with Gu Mingjing.

Or perhaps, it was because of his attitude that she felt safe and secure, because she knew that he was always tolerant of her, and even when he was angry, he would not bear to hurt her.

Only those who are favored by others will feel fearless.

The two of them sat by the stove watching over the fire, and gradually, the aroma of steamed buns filled the whole house.

Gu Mingjing stood up, opened the lid, and looked at the steamed buns in the pot. They were ready.

I moved the steamer to the table and added some water to the pot to prevent it from drying out.

Watching the dwindling flames in the stove, Jianshu suddenly craved roasted sweet potatoes. Roasted over the embers, peeling back the crispy, charred skin stained with wood ash reveals the golden flesh within. The alluring color is irresistible.

One bite and the sweet taste melts between your lips and teeth. How delicious it is!

"I want to eat roasted sweet potatoes." If you want to eat it, then eat it, Jianshu said without hesitation.

"Roasted sweet potatoes?" Gu Mingjing was stunned. "Didn't you just eat? Can you still eat more?"

It’s only been an hour since we finished our meal.

"I don't care, I'm going to eat it!" Once the thought came to his mind, he couldn't suppress it. Jianshu's mind was full of roasted sweet potatoes, and he refused to give up until he had eaten.

"I just ate until I was only 80% full, and I have digested some of it now. If you don't believe me, just touch it!" She puffed out her belly, trying to convince him.

Gu Mingjing reached out and touched it, and found that it was just as she said. Thinking that it would take time to roast the sweet potato, and seeing her eager eyes, he couldn't bear to disappoint her, so he agreed, "Okay, I'll roast it for you, but you can only eat one, okay?"

"Well, I'll just eat one!" Jian Shu nodded happily and agreed. One is enough for her. She was just greedy, not hungry.

Gu Mingjing buried a few sweet potatoes in the stove and let the remaining fire roast them.

But he couldn't eat for a while, so he looked at the time and started packing things for Gu Zhan.

"I brought two bottles of chili sauce for Uncle Gu, which is perfect to eat with the steamed buns." Jianshu said as he packed the steamed buns.

"Then he must be very happy. He likes steamed buns with sauce the most. He ate most of the stir-fried sour beans and minced meat you made yesterday, and he was still talking about it to me when he came back." Gu Mingjing said with a smile when he heard this.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier? If you had told me, I would have fried some more for Uncle Gu. We still have a lot of sour beans at home." Jian Shu felt a little regretful and couldn't help but patting his arm.

"Okay, he likes the chili sauce too. Besides, it can only be eaten during the few days on the train. It would be a waste if you bring too much and he can't finish it." Gu Mingjing hurriedly comforted him.

There's no point regretting it now. She can't possibly go back and fry it. Even if she wants to, there's not enough time.
