After passing this level, Jianshu breathed a sigh of relief and quickly regained his confidence. He started ordering, "I want chicken stewed with mushrooms, and I also want oil tea noodles!"
She hadn't had much of an appetite these past two days, so it was rare for her to find something she wanted to eat. Gu Mingjing replied without hesitation, "Okay, sure."
He bent down and tucked the quilt in for her. "Lie down and don't come out. I'll bring the food to your room when it's ready."
They dug out a frozen chicken from the vat outside the house and threw it into a basin to thaw, and then soaked some mushrooms. The oil tea noodles were made by Jianshu a while ago. The two of them enjoyed it for a while but got tired of it, so they left the rest in the cupboard untouched.
The stewed chicken with mushrooms would take some time to finish, and worried that Jianshu would be hungry, Gu Mingjing first made a bowl of oil tea noodles and brought it to her room for her to eat slowly.
Thinking that her mouth has been tasteless these days, I thought about making some snacks for her to change her taste.
After a busy period, the meal was finally ready.
He brought a large pot of chicken stewed with mushrooms into the room and moved the table next to the bed so that Jianshu could eat without getting out of bed and wrapped in a quilt.
Looking at the chicken stewed with mushrooms in rich oil and sauce, Jianshu, who had no appetite after drinking porridge for two days, suddenly had a good appetite. Gu Mingjing picked up some food for her and asked her to eat slowly.
Jianshu didn't bother to speak, just nodded and kept eating.
After she finished a bowl of rice and wanted to have more, Gu Mingjing didn't let her eat anymore.
Jianshu was shocked. What? She wasn't even allowed to eat? Was her family that poor?
Gu Mingjing looked at her with amusement and put another piece of chicken wing in her bowl. "Okay, have one last piece. I made you some sugar-roasted chestnuts. If you're too full, you won't be able to eat anymore."
It’s not that I don’t allow her to eat, but she has been eating little and light meals these days. I’m afraid her stomach won’t be able to handle eating so much suddenly.
"Then I won't eat it!" When he heard that there were sugar-roasted chestnuts, Jianshu quickly put down his chopsticks.
"Chicken wings have a lot of bones, it's okay to eat another piece. If you don't eat it, then I will eat it." Gu Mingjing pretended to pick up the chicken wings and put them back into his bowl.
"I want to eat it!" Jianshu quickly dodged with the bowl in her hand. Her favorite thing was chicken wings.
After the meal, Gu Mingjing kept his promise and gave her sugar-roasted chestnuts. It wasn't much, just five. He was afraid that she would get indigestion and refused to give her more. Jianshu ate it very cherishingly.
While eating, she silently shed tears in her heart, woo woo woo - it's so delicious, why didn't she think it was so delicious before? When she recovered from her illness, she would show off five kilograms of sugar-roasted chestnuts in one go!
Of course, this is definitely impossible. Five kilograms of sugar-roasted chestnuts might make her die of bloating.
***
Jianshu's illness this time dragged on for more than ten days before she was completely recovered. In fact, she was almost well a week ago, except that she still had a cough. She didn't think it was a big problem, but Gu Mingjing just didn't agree to let her go out, no matter how much she protested.
The dictator locked her up in her house for more than ten days and didn't let her go out. Even though Jianshu had always been a homebody, she couldn't stand staying at home anymore.
"Oh! Let's go play!"
Look, the ban has just been lifted, and he cheered and went out happily.
But as soon as I stepped out of the door, my enthusiasm was extinguished by the strong wind, leaving no spark behind.
Gu Mingjing was sitting in the living room reading a book. When he heard the door open, he didn't even look up and said casually, "Are you back?"
Jian Shu walked over with his eyes lowered, looking listless. "Humph! You did it on purpose."
"What?" Gu Mingjing looked confused, as if he didn't understand what she meant.
Jian Shu rolled his eyes at him angrily, "Stop pretending. You're holding the book upside down. Don't tell me you can read upside down."
He must have done it on purpose, knowing that the weather was bad today and she would definitely not want to go out, so he specially lifted the ban today. Humph! Scheming dog!
After being exposed, Gu Mingjing stopped pretending. He closed the book and threw it on the coffee table. He tilted his head to look at her, his eyes revealing a playful and teasing look, "Why, you don't want to go out and play?"
"Ah - you bastard, how dare you mention it? I'll bite you to death!" Jian Shu, who had been depressed for too long, was so angry that he gnashed his teeth when he saw that the culprit was still watching the fun. He pounced on the handsome face and bit it tightly with all his strength.
"I was wrong, I was wrong!" Gu Mingjing didn't expect that angering someone would lead to such consequences. He begged for mercy again and again, "No, if I leave marks, how can I go out and see people?"
"Hmph!" Jian Shu still held on, refusing to let go. Serves you right!
No matter what he said, she refused to listen until her cheeks were sore and she was almost out of breath.
He rubbed his chin, feeling uncomfortable in his mouth. Jianshu poured a glass of water and began to rinse his mouth.
Gu Mingjing, who was covering his face, widened his eyes slightly when he saw this. He was so angry that he laughed, "You bit me first and now you're disgusted with me?"
Jian Shu ignored him and expressed his disdain for him with his actions, "Pah!"
"Okay, you dislike me, right? Come on? Let's see who dislikes whom more!" After saying that, he pounced on Jianshu, bit her on the face, then spat twice on the ground and rinsed his mouth with a cup.
Jian Shu was shocked. She had never expected him to be so childish. How could he look like a young man in his twenties? Three at most!
Seeing Gu San Sui gargling his mouth while looking at her smugly, could she tolerate this? That was definitely not possible!
She showed with her actions that she would never give up, bit him again, and then "Pfft, pfft, pfft——"
Gu Mingjing refused to give in, "Pah---"
For a moment, the two of them were biting each other. You bite me, I bite you, and if you make a "Pooh" sound, then I must make a "Pooh" sound twice. The main point is that one of them will never admit defeat!
The living room was filled with the sound of "Pooh, pooh, pooh". The scene was, well, really unbearable to watch.
