Forty minutes later, two dishes and a soup were ready. Xiangyi brought the dishes to the dining room and served her a bowl of rice.
“Eat.”
She was really hungry, especially when she saw the table full of delicious-looking dishes.
She picked up her chopsticks and couldn’t wait to taste the shredded pork!
“Mmm…” She chewed slowly, thoroughly savouring the flavour of the food.
It was so delicious.
Suddenly, Shi Nuannua stopped eating and spit out the mouthful she ate earlier.
“What’s wrong?” Xiangyi looked on with worry.
Her furrowed brows seemed to be expressing some sort of discomfort, as if she was enduring something. Xiangyi’s first thought was that the food tasted terrible.
However, it was not the first or second time he had cooked. Although it was not as professional as a chef’s, it should not taste so terrible. Or was it not suitable to her taste?
However, no matter how unsuitable it was, she wouldn’t have spit it back out like this, would she?
“Is it very bad?” asked he hesitantly.
Shi Nuannuan nodded and immediately shook her head. “No! It’s…”
She looked at the food she threw up on the table, and sure enough, she saw traces of ginger.
“I don’t like ginger.” When she ate ginger, she felt as if she had eaten poison. She really didn’t like the spicy and weird taste!
Hearing this, Xiangyi came to a sudden realization. He looked at the dishes that he had just made. Other than the bowl of tomato egg soup, he had put ginger in the other two dishes.
It turned out that she did not like to eat ginger.
“I’ll pick it out for you.” He got up and walked to the kitchen to get a pair of chopsticks. Then he sat opposite her and picked out all the ginger in the dishes one by one, placing them on the table.
Nuannuan was touched by his considerate gesture.
Xiangyi was really a gentleman. He was simply the perfect man for her!
“Alright.” After picking out all the ginger, he put down his chopsticks and looked at her. “Eat.”
She smiled and picked up her chopsticks again, eating happily!
After a full meal, Shi Nuannuan was finally satisfied. She rubbed her round belly and said, “I’m so full!”
It was the first time she had eaten so satisfactorily. She was almost stuffed to death!
By the time they were done, it was already 3:30 pm.
After cleaning up the bowls and chopsticks, the two of them walked to the living room. Seeing that it was still bright, Xiangyi did not want her to return to the hotel so early, so he brought her to the second floor.
He had lived with the Feng family for ten years, but he had never thought that this was his home.
If it were not for his uncle, he would have left this place long ago.
Therefore, he did not want to sit in the living room with Nuannuan. He felt more comfortable being with her in his room.
In this house, his only territory was the room that belonged to him.
The furnishing in the room were very simple. There was a bed, two shelves, a desk, a wardrobe, a chair and a single sofa.
There was also a small bookshelf on the wall. There was no television to watch, so Shi Nuannuan walked over to look for a book.
She preferred to read romance novels but Xiangyi seemed to have collected some famous and philosophical enlightenment books. She was not interested in any of them.
“What book are you looking for?” Xiangyi noticed that she hadn’t found anything from the bookshelf despite having stood there for awhile.
Shi Nuannuan turned around. “Romance novels. Do you have any?”
Xiangyi paused. He really had not collected romance novels before.
