Stir-Fried Fish
"You said this Prince is meticulous. Are you praising me?"
His heart was filled with a trace of happiness.
He looked at her from the corner of his eye. Her exquisite face exuded an irresistible charm.
Ji Yunshu quickened her pace, leaving him behind.
Jing Rong asked …
"Tell me, were you praising This King just now?"
Jing Rong chased after her with a shameless look on his face.
"Teacher Ji, tell me!"
He almost twisted his body to pull Ji Yunshu's sleeves.
Ji Yunshu lowered her brows and rolled her eyes at him.
She didn't even have time to deal with the case, yet this Buddha was still in the mood to ask about this.
She didn't want him to continue acting like a rascal.
Ji Yunshu simply …
"Yes, this humble one was praising you. Is it okay now?"
"No."
Ji Yunshu's words stopped her.
Ji Yunshu stopped in her tracks. She was very surprised. She turned sideways and stared at him with her bright eyes. "What is your Highness trying to do?"
Jing Rong's lips curled into a smile. "This Prince thinks that Teacher Ji hasn't praised me enough."
"You …"
"This Prince is not only meticulous, but I also understand what it means to be a talented person and to cherish a beautiful appearance."
Ji Yunshu's shoulders trembled. She immediately averted her gaze and walked forward again. "Your Highness's thoughts are really different. This humble one doesn't understand."
She understood! Of course she understood!
She was talented and beautiful!
Jing Rong said those words to her without any reason. He must have discovered that she was a girl.
But he didn't say it out loud!
Ji Yunshu's heart tightened. She didn't dare to slow down her pace for fear that she would have to walk side by side with him and listen to his strange words again.
When they reached the city from the village, the sky had already darkened.
There were many people on the small road. Hawkers were hawking their wares and steaming hot noodle stalls were set up one after another.
People came and went!
Lanterns hung at the corners!
Women and children were peaceful!
Life was peaceful!
The entire Jinjiang long road was bustling with activity.
Ji Yunshu walked in the crowd with Jing Rong following behind her.
She intended to walk the length of the street and part ways with him.
Unexpectedly, her right hand was suddenly grabbed by someone, causing her to stop in her tracks. The force on her wrist was a little strong, causing her to stagger a few steps. Only when her shoulder was supported by a hand did she stand firmly.
She glanced sideways and met Jing Rong's gaze.
He smiled. "I'm a little hungry and tired. Why don't you sit down and eat a bowl of noodles and rest?"
She instinctively bounced away, but she was helpless. Her wrist was trapped in Jing Rong's palm. Her strength was no match for Jing Rong's, so she couldn't break free.
"Your Highness, let go."
"The night view of the winter moon. Sir, don't tell me you're going back to your bed to sleep?"
"Yes."
"But this King feels that it's really a waste."
What a waste! It's a cold winter night, and you're not sleeping, but having a snowball fight?
Without waiting for Ji Yunshu to refute him, he dragged her to the side of the noodle stall and sat down on an empty seat.
Jing Rong waved his hand. "Boss, give me two bowls of noodles with gravy. Don't use chopped onions for one of them."
"Alright!"
The boss slung a towel over his shoulder and began to busy himself.
Jing Rong added, "Boss, when you put the noodles into the pot, stir them slowly with chopsticks. When you take them out of the pot, remember to rinse them with cold water. That way, they'll taste better."
"Alright!"
'You're very skilled!
Hey, hey, hey, Jing Rong, did you grow up by the roadside? You're so familiar with the process of cooking at a roadside stall!
But … '
Ji Yunshu asked him, "Your Highness, do you think … I don't eat chopped onions?"
Jing Rong reached into the chopsticks basket and picked up a chopstick. He tapped it on the teapot in front of him and replied, "Last time at the Zhou Family, before Sir ate, you always picked out the chopped onions one by one. A person with discerning eyes would be able to tell at a glance."
'En, you're a person with discerning eyes.'
"But, Your Highness is mistaken. It's not that I don't like chopped onions."
"Huh? Mistaken? What's wrong? "
Jing Rong was curious. 'How could it be wrong? You clearly picked out the chopped onions one by one!'
At this moment, Ji Yunshu smiled. She also picked up a chopstick from the basket and tapped it on the teapot in front of her.
"Does Your Highness still remember the dish I picked out when I picked out the chopped onions?"
Jing Rong narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment. Then, his eyes lit up. "Stir-fried fish."
"Your memory is really good. Then, does Your Highness know that if you add chopped onions to stir-fried fish, all the fishy smell will be in the chopped onions? Although I'm used to the smell of human blood, the fishy smell and the smell of blood are completely different. The fishy smell is pungent and can even disturb the mind. But when the smell of blood enters the nose, it's thick but not greasy. If you get used to it, it will even have a refreshing taste."
Clang!
Just as Ji Yunshu finished speaking, the sound of a ladle falling to the ground came from behind her.
The owner's face twitched. He was shocked and frightened by Ji Yunshu's words.
The owner immediately smiled and served two bowls of noodles. "The two of you … the two of you, please enjoy."
His voice trembled.
'Today's customers are so strange. Their taste is also unique!'
The owner immediately left after putting down the noodles.
Ji Yunshu couldn't help but laugh. She completely forgot the displeasure she felt when Jing Rong forcefully dragged her here.
Her lowered eyebrows and her smile fell into Jing Rong's eyes.
He was very curious about how beautiful this woman would look when she changed into women's clothes and draped her hair down to her shoulders.
Realizing that he was lost in thought, he immediately tightened his expression.
He said, "Hurry up and eat, or it'll get cold."
Jing Rong picked up his chopsticks and ate with relish.
Ji Yunshu glanced at him and also picked up her chopsticks.
She only ate a mouthful before putting it aside.
On the contrary, Jing Rong's bowl of noodles was finished after eating a few times. He raised his head and looked at Ji Yunshu's almost untouched bowl. He asked, "You're not eating anymore?"
"I can't eat anymore."
"Then don't waste it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jing Rong took the bowl of noodles in front of her.
"Don't …" Ji Yunshu was shocked.
It was too late to stop her. Jing Rong put his chopsticks into her bowl of noodles and ate with relish.
At that moment, Ji Yunshu was struck by his actions, leaving her feeling numb on the outside and tender on the inside.
Her mouth was slightly open and didn't close for a long time.
After Jing Rong finished her bowl of noodles, he was very happy. Seeing her frightened expression, the corners of his mouth curved into a smile. He stretched out his slender fingers and hooked her chin.
Then, he slightly lifted her slightly open mouth.
"Teacher, why are you so surprised? This Prince doesn't despise you. "
"…"
"Alright, I'm full. Let's go."
Jing Rong took out some silver and placed it on the table. Then, he held Ji Yunshu's hand again.
Then, he pulled Ji Yunshu's hand and left the noodle stall.
Looking at her hand in Jing Rong's grasp, Ji Yunshu felt very uncomfortable.
With a wave of his hand, Ji Yunshu drew back her hand. She tightly clenched her fists to prevent Jing Rong from extending his evil claws at her again.
"It's getting late. This lowly one will go back first."
Ji Yunshu's expression was cold. After she finished speaking, she walked around Jing Rong and quickly left.
Jing Rong stood in the same place for a while. Looking at his empty hand, the tenderness he felt just now disappeared bit by bit.
