Qiao Anhao lowered her head, looking at Lu Jinnian's serious expression. Her eyes started to heat up, and she turned her head away.
Only when Lu Jinnian finished putting on the band-aid and stood up did Qiao Anhao hurriedly take a deep breath. Suppressing her emotions, she turned her head and smiled at Lu Jinnian. "Let's eat, the food is going to get cold."
"Mmh." Lu Jinnian replied softly. He raised his hand to caress Qiao Anhao's hair, and threw the sterile cotton swab into the rubbish bin at the side. He pulled out a wet napkin to wipe his hands, sat back down, and picked up his chopsticks. Before he could pick up any food, Qiao Anhao stood up first, picked up a water spinach, and placed it in his bowl. Lu Jinnian was stunned for a moment. He raised his head to look at Qiao Anhao, who was smiling at him with a dazzling smile. There was a hint of playfulness in her words. "It's my first time cooking, so I don't have the courage to try it, so you can be my lab rat."
The corners of Lu Jinnian's lips curved into a doting smile. Without a word, he picked up the water spinach, stuffed it into his mouth, and started chewing.
"How is it?" Qiao Anhao's eyes flashed with anticipation.
Lu Jinnian swallowed the food in his mouth, his expression serious. "Not bad."
"Really?" Qiao Anhao picked up the chopsticks doubtfully and placed it in her mouth. After chewing a few times, her expression became a little distressed. Her brows furrowed, and she used a lot of strength to force herself not to spit it out. She grabbed the glass of water on the table and drank half of it before sticking her tongue out. "It's so salty!"
Lu Jinnian let out a stifled chuckle. Unlike other men, he didn't flatter the woman he loved with flowery words about how delicious the food was. Instead, he silently used his actions to continue eating.
It was his first time cooking, so it was barely edible. However, Lu Jinnian ate with relish, as though there was a table full of delicacies in front of him.
Qiao Anhao looked at this scene, her eyes filled with a hint of emotion.
He was very good to her, but this kind of good, did not mean love, right?
When he was half full, he realized that Qiao Anhao hadn't moved her chopsticks at all. Instead, she had been watching him eat. His chewing gradually slowed down. He didn't say anything to disturb her, but just stared at her quietly. In her eyes, he could see his own reflection. For the first time in his life, he realized that he could be so stunning.
It was very quiet in the dining room, the sunlight shining through the window. Suddenly, Lu Jinnian remembered what his assistant had said to him yesterday: Even if Miss Qiao used to like Mr. Xu, who knows, she might like you now. I see that there are many times when Miss Qiao clearly cares for you, Mr. Lu...
The emotions in Lu Jinnian's chest started to churn. The reason why he had returned so late last night was because he had been wondering if he should ask Qiao Anhao what she was thinking.
He was so hesitant because he was afraid that once he opened his mouth, he wouldn't hear the answer he was looking forward to. In the end, the two of them wouldn't even be able to be friends.
Lu Jinnian struggled internally for a long time, but in the end, he cut off all means of retreat and said, "Qiao Qiao..."
At the same time, Qiao Anhao's voice rang out, "Lu Jinnian..."
