"A gift?"
Kim Ya-jin turned around and was surprised. "For me?"
Li Xu opened the box. "Yes. I saw it in the store and thought it was pretty, so I bought it."
"An anklet?"
"Yes."
"It's pretty."
Li Xu pretended to be careless. "I don't know what you like, so I bought you a gift. Please don't mind it."
"Alright, I know. Put it down."
Kim Ya-jin answered casually. She turned around and pushed the food in the pot with the spoon, then turned off the fire.
Li Xu was stunned. This was not what they had agreed on.
She didn't reject him. She should at least give him a chance to say something nice.
Shaking his head, Li Xu put the bag on the marble countertop. "Well …"
"Anything else?"
Kim Ya-jin opened the small pot of soup with the spoon, and was about to taste it.
"Well, I told Sister Jin-hee … Forget it, I just want to know if you think it's pretty or not."
Kim Ya-jin scooped a spoonful of soup and blew on it. "I'm not free now. Can you help me put it on?"
She bent her knees and lifted her legs as she said that.
Kim Ya-jin wasn't wearing a black suit today. Her long legs were slim and straight under light-colored jeans. Li Xu subconsciously glanced at them, then realized that they didn't fit her.
"It's fine. You can try it on when you're free."
Li Xu coughed and was about to run away.
"Oh, wait."
Li Xu turned around. "What's wrong?"
Kim Ya-jin took a sip of the soup and frowned. "Can you help me taste this silver fish soup? It tastes a little bad."
Then she passed the spoon to him. There was still half a spoonful of transparent silver fish soup in it.
Li Xu looked at the spoon in his mouth and shrunk his neck a little.
"What? Are you afraid of the heat? "
Kim Ya-jin glanced at him, put the spoon to her mouth and blew on it. Then, she handed it back to Li Xu.
"It's really not hot. Try it and see if there's anything wrong with it."
"Oh."
Li Xu stopped hesitating and opened his mouth to drink the fish soup.
Koreans were very strange. They didn't mind sharing utensils with others. Sharing a pair of chopsticks and a spoon was a common thing. Even strangers wouldn't mind, let alone friends. Regardless of whether it was a man or a woman drinking soup from the same bowl, it was a very common thing to them.
"How does it taste? Where is the difference? "
"En ~"
Li Xu frowned as he thought about it. "Indeed, it doesn't seem perfect."
"What's missing?"
"Do you want to try adding some salt and MSG?" Li Xu tested.
"Who would put MSG in silver fish soup?"
Kim Ya-jin rolled her eyes at him. She scooped up another spoonful of soup and blew on it. Then, she took a sip and frowned, thinking carefully about the problem.
Seeing Li Xu looking at her, Kim Ya-jin put the spoon to Li Xu's mouth again. Li Xu subconsciously drank the rest of the soup.
After drinking the soup, Li Xu looked at Kim Ya-jin.
"Well, it's pretty good. That's it. You don't have to add anything else."
After that, Li Xu turned around and ran. Kim Ya-jin was confused by his slightly panicked look.
"Is it really good?"
Kim Ya-jin was puzzled. She scooped up another spoonful of soup and tasted it. Then, she frowned. "Why do I still feel that something is wrong?"
Back in the living room, Li Xu sat on the sofa worriedly and watched the little girl play with the minions in Lin Yuqing's arms.
"Uncle! Do you want to play with Bao'er? "
The little girl felt his gaze. Holding the minions, she stretched her neck and stared at Li Xu with her eyes wide open.
"Uncle is thinking about something. Can Bao'er play with Auntie?"
"Okay."
Kim Jin-hee whispered, "Did my sister say something to you? She didn't accept your gift? "
"No, I just thought of something myself."
Li Xu looked at Kim Jin-hee and Lin Yuqing, then at Bao'er, and then at Lin Yuqing. He sat on the sofa in a daze.
Kim Jin-hee looked at Li Xu's absent-minded look and secretly squeezed his hand.
Li Xu looked at her. Kim Jin-hee winked playfully.
Li Xu smiled and patted the back of her hand. He lay on the back of the sofa and closed his eyes to rest.
After a while, a pair of small hands pressed on his head and gently rubbed it. Li Xu opened his eyes and saw the little girl leaning close to his ear and blowing warm breaths.
"Uncle, do you feel uncomfortable in your head? Bao'er can help you rub it. Bao'er used to rub it for Mommy. "
Li Xu reached out and pinched the little girl's chubby little face. "Bao'er, why are you so cute?"
The little girl was embarrassed and giggled.
Lin Yuqing also came up and rubbed his shoulder. "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Li Xu blinked. "No, it's just that the flight yesterday was too long and it was too tiring at night."
"Screw you."
Lin Yuqing was embarrassed. Kim Jin-hee smiled. Seeing Lin Yuqing turn her head away embarrassedly, Kim Jin-hee also quickly pretended that she didn't hear anything.
Only the little girl was puzzled and opened her big eyes, looking like a curious baby.
… …
Li Xu and the little girl had already inquired about which dishes were prepared by Kim Jin-hee in advance so that they could avoid the lightning. When they were eating, the two of them picked up the dishes prepared by Kim Jin-hee and put them into their bowls.
Kim Ya-jin: "How is the taste of the meat that I cooked?"
Lin Yuqing: "I ate it, the taste is actually not bad. It's just that it might have been cooked for a long time, so it's slightly overcooked."
Kim Jin-hee curled her lips. "Sister, don't mess around. Don't you have me to cook at home? When you want to eat, you can come over and I will cook for you. "
"Is it really not good?"
Kim Ya-jin chewed the meat in her mouth carefully. It's obviously not bad.
"I feel that sister Yazhen's cooking is very delicious."
Li Xu had a different opinion. He pretended to give a thumbs up and said, "The taste is really perfect. Sister Yazhen's cooking is not worse than that of the restaurant."
The little girl next to him raised her head and looked at him with an innocent face. "But uncle, you didn't eat a single bite."
Li Xu put down the spoon and patted the little girl's head. "Don't talk, eat more."
"Oh."
Seeing Li Xu's reaction, Lin Yuqing almost laughed out loud. She took the initiative to pick up a piece of meat and put it into Li Xu's bowl. "Actually, it's not bad. Li Xu likes this taste very much."
"Indeed, I like it very much."
Li Xu put the meat into his mouth and found that it was indeed like what Lin Yuqing said. Except that it was not so tender, the taste was not bad.
He picked up the spoon and scooped a spoonful of silver fish soup. Just as he put it to his mouth and blew on it, Li Xu suddenly put the spoon down again.
"Uncle, why don't you drink?" The little girl was not focused when eating. She always liked to look left and right. She just happened to see Li Xu's actions.
Li Xu put the spoon that was blown cold in front of the little girl's mouth. "Here, drink it."
"Awoo ~ ~ ~"
The little girl happily took a bite of the spoon and drank the soup. Then, she frowned and was about to say something.
"This soup was made by your mother. Think carefully before you say it."
The corners of the little girl's mouth pulled up, revealing her small white teeth. She vividly demonstrated what it meant to force a smile.
"So it was made by my mother. No wonder it tastes so good."
