When the two of them reached home, it was already late. Although they had umbrellas, the two of them were still inevitably caught in the rain.
Previously, Luo Tao had tilted the umbrella to Mo Yan’s side, causing one of his shoulders to be wet. Mo Yan looked at the frowning Luo Tao and smiled unkindly.
“Hurry up and take a shower, or else you’ll catch a cold.”
Mo Yan smiled as she pushed Luo Tao towards the bathroom. Unexpectedly, Luo Tao stopped after taking two steps.
“What’s wrong?” Mo Yan was puzzled.
Luo Tao turned around and looked into Mo Yan’s eyes. He touched Mo Yan’s slightly damp hair and said, “You go first.”
Mo Yan wanted to decline, but Luo Tao’s determined gaze made Mo Yan give in. Instead of wasting time here, she might as well take a quick shower and let Luo Tao shower as soon as she was done.
The warm water washed over Mo Yan’s body, dispelling all the coldness. Sighing in satisfaction, Mo Yan recalled the moment when the two of them were on the bus, and a sweet smile could not help but appear on her lips.
Mo Yan did not stay in the bathroom for long. As soon as she came out of the bathroom, she saw Luo Tao sitting on the sofa in a daze. After calling out to him twice did he finally regain his sense. However, he was still gazing at Mo Yan with a stunned expression
As Mo Yan walked closer, Luo Tao raised his head.
At this moment, Mo Yan was only wearing a long shirt. Her wet long hair hung on both sides of her face, making her face even more attractive without makeup. Luo Tao’s eyes reflected Mo Yan’s bright smile.
Mo Yan stretched out her hand and touched the space between Luo Tao’s furrowed eyebrows. She smiled and said, “Why are you so out of it? The rainwater made you dumb?”
Mo Yan’s teasing voice suddenly made Luo Tao feel annoyed. He silently turned his head. He must have been out of his mind today to accompany Mo Yan to mess around.
Clenching his right hand, Luo Tao unconsciously rubbed it with his fingertips. There seemed to be a residual heat on this hand that was held by Mo Yan’s ten fingers.
“Don’t sit here anymore. Go take a shower.” Pulling Luo Tao up, Mo Yan conveniently stuffed a set of pajamas into his hand.
After Luo Tao walked into the bedroom, Mo Yan finally cleared the space to wipe away the muddy footprints that were left by the two of them.
After putting on the apron, Mo Yan opened the fridge to take a look at what ingredients she had. She was ready to make the Taoist kung pao chicken with shredded potatoes. They had been eating takeout for the past two days. It was not that Mo Yan did not want to cook, but Luo Tao did not let her cook.
At that time, she was still too naive, thinking that ordering takeout would cost money. She thought that if she was not allowed to cook, she could teach Luo Tao to cook. However, after one try, she gave up.
Not only could this young master not be able to tell the difference between sugar and salt, but he was also a complete kitchen killer. After seeing the pots and pans being scrapped, Mo Yan firmly chose to order takeout for the safety of the kitchenware.
It was already impressive considering Luo Tao’s cooking skills that he could cook a pot of non-toxic white porridge.
The sound of cutting vegetables rang out. After Luo Tao was done with his shower, he followed the sound to find Mo Yan.
Under the warm yellow light, Mo Yan cut the vegetables with her back facing him. She cut the vegetables skillfully and smoothly. It was unknown since when Luo Tao had the habit of watching Mo Yan Cook.
He watched her movements and listened to her voice, feeling a warmth that he had grown accustomed to.
Luo Tao’s gaze lingered on her back for a long time. Mo Yan felt a little uncomfortable. He stared at her as if he was burning a hole in her back with his eyes.
Mo Yan’s figure was very slender. Perhaps it was because of how busy Mo Yan had been at work recently, but compared to the first time the two of them met, she was much thinner. The long shirt covered a part of her straight and slender legs, and her exposed skin looked even whiter.
Luo Tao’s throat was a little dry, and he could not help but swallow his saliva.
At this moment, the water in the pot was boiling. Mo Yan moved aside to put in the ingredients.
Luo Tao was suffocated by her actions. The half-hidden look of her body was even more attractive.
Luo Tao thought that he was acting a little creepily, so he forced himself to look away. However, the images in his mind became clearer.
Luo Tao closed his eyes, trying to get the romantic thoughts out of his mind.
Fortunately, Mo Yan was focused on cooking, so she did not notice Luo Tao’s loss of composure.
When making cold dishes, all kinds of shredded vegetables could not be blanched for too long, or else they would lose their crisp and refreshing taste. Mo Yan seized the opportunity and turned off the heat, filtering the vegetables in the cold water.
After mixing in the seasoning sauce, Mo Yan tasted it and thought that it tasted good, so she called Luo Tao over, wanting him to taste it too.
After calling him twice, Luo Tao did not answer. When Mo Yan wanted to turn around to look, Luo Tao suddenly hugged her waist from behind.
“Luo Tao?”
