After Jiujiu finished cooking, Yan Zhen took the plate and carried it to the living room. After Yan Zhen carried all the dishes to the living room, Jiujiu took the opportunity to get some egg drop soup.
After Yan Zhen carried the egg drop soup out, Jiujiu got two bowls of rice and two pairs of chopsticks and went out.
There were three dishes and one soup for two people. One of them was meat. It was actually quite a sumptuous meal.
It was not until the two started eating that Jiujiu saw Yan Zhen's appearance for the first time.
Yan Zhen's appearance was different from his previous handsomeness. Yan Zhen's appearance could be described as boorish. If it weren't for his long, narrow eyes that carried a hint of evil, Yan Zhen's appearance would be that of a bandit leader.
However, because of this pair of phoenix eyes, Yan Zhen's originally boorish appearance had become somewhat devilish.
It could be seen that Yan Zhen's family background was not good at all.
Yan Zhen's clothes were very rough, and his hands were full of calluses. Because they were just shaking Jiujiu's hands, Yan Zhen did not look at them. Now that she took a closer look, she found that the back of Yan Zhen's hands actually had frostbite.
Because he did not take care of them carefully, some of the frostbite on Yan Zhen's hands had broken, and some had formed scabs. However, most of them revealed new tender flesh and blood.
Looking at Yan Zhen's frozen hands, Jiujiu's heart instantly ached.
After the meal, Jiujiu and Yan Zhen put the used bowls and chopsticks in the kitchen to soak. Then, they went to their bedroom to find the ointment for the frostbite.
First, she asked Yan Zhen to soak his hands in hot water for more than ten minutes. When his big hands were soaked red, she took them out.
After wiping off the water droplets on his hands, Jiujiu carefully applied the ointment on Yan Zhen's wounds. She gently massaged his hands until the ointment was completely absorbed. Only then did she let go of Yan Zhen's hands.
Yan Zhen's family was not happy. His mother was a prostitute, and his father was a gangster.
His father had been caught cheating in gambling last year and had been beaten half to death. He had died a few days after being carried home.
Yan Zhen's grandparents had passed away a long time ago, and his relatives had cut ties with his family because of his father.
After his father's death, his mother took everything that was left in the house and ran away.
Right now, Yan Zhen was truly a loner.
After his father's death, Yan Zhen's family, which wasn't very happy to begin with, was dissolved. Now, Yan Zhen only had a dilapidated house and nothing else.
Yan Zhen's father was originally a hooligan, and because Yan Zhen had no money, he walked the same path as his father.
Because he was good-looking and smart, he usually talked to people and ghosts. Even though he was only a second-year junior high school kid, he was already the big boss of the school.
This time, he had brought a few people to stop Jiujiu because Xiao Tian had given him a thousand yuan a few days ago to help him deal with Jiujiu and teach Jiujiu a lesson.
Yan Zhen had long been familiar with teaching someone a lesson. Therefore, after receiving the money, he got someone to follow Jiujiu for a few days. After figuring out Jiujiu's schedule, he stopped Jiujiu on the way to the end of the final exam. He was prepared to teach Jiujiu a lesson.
In fact, Yan Zhen basically didn't do things like teaching people a lesson anymore. However, he didn't know why, but this time, even though it was just a small matter, when he said that he wouldn't be going today, his heart suddenly beat a few beats faster.
Because of this, Yan Zhen decided to go personally.
But now, Yan Zhen was particularly glad that he decided to go personally. If he didn't go personally, how could he meet Jiujiu? When he thought of how he saw Jiujiu just now, Yan Zhen's heart beat faster again.
How to describe it? Jiujiu was like a little angel who appeared in front of him all of a sudden, making his eyes light up instantly.
At that time, he only had one thought in his mind, and that was if he couldn't get Jiujiu, then even if he had the world, it would be meaningless.
Therefore, he was angry when Monkey said those words to insult Jiujiu.
But now, it seemed that everything he did just now was worth it.
Looking at his hand that was applied with ointment by Jiujiu and now wrapped with gauze, Yan Zhen couldn't help but reveal a faint smile.
Yan Zhen's appearance wasn't exquisite, but when he smiled, he was exceptionally good-looking. Looking at him, Jiujiu couldn't help but smile as well.
Jiujiu handed the ointment in her hand to Yan Zhen, "This ointment is very useful for treating frostbite. In the future, apply some after soaking your hand in hot water in the morning and apply some before going to bed at night. The frostbite will quickly recover."
Jiujiu's hand was very small. Although there was a thin layer of calluses on her fingers because she was holding a pen, compared to Yan Zhen's hand, her hand was as delicate as a doll's.
Yan Zhen reached out and wrapped Jiujiu's hand in his hand. He lowered his head and looked at Jiujiu's clear and transparent eyes that reflected his appearance. Yan Zhen opened his mouth, but because of nervousness, he could only say one sentence in the end.
"What I said just now is true." Yan Zhen was saying that Jiujiu was his woman.
"I know," Jiujiu naturally knew that Yan Zhen was referring to that sentence, so she quickly gave Yan Zhen an answer.
Hearing Jiujiu's quick reply, Yan Zhen frowned slightly and repeated his question with uncertainty, "Then you agree to let me be your man?"
"Mm." Jiujiu washed her hands with the warm water that Yan Zhen had soaked her hand in before raising her head and saying to Yan Zhen, "I agree."
Yan Zhen didn't expect Jiujiu to agree so quickly even though she knew what he meant. After being stunned for a moment, he was ecstatic.
However, for the sake of his image, Yan Zhen suppressed the joy in his heart. He used almost all of his strength to suppress the smile on her face. After a light cough, he looked at Jiujiu and said, "In that case, come with me to visit my friends tomorrow. I'll introduce you to them."
Just like how a peacock spreads its tail to attract the attention of a female, Yan Zhen also wanted to show his best side to Jiujiu.
Jiujiu raised her eyes and glanced at Yan Zhen. "I'm not going."
Yan Zhen didn't expect his good intentions to be rejected by Jiujiu. His eyes, which had been sparkling with excitement, instantly dimmed. Even his red lips seemed to have turned white in a second.
Thousands of thoughts flashed through Yan Zhen's mind.
Jiujiu actually didn't like him anymore. Jiujiu agreed to him just to trick him into leaving.
No matter how he thought about it, he just couldn't come up with a good idea.
Just as Yan Zhen was feeling extremely sad, he heard Jiujiu say in a gentle voice, "I accepted a tutoring job. Starting tomorrow, I have to help someone with tutoring. I don't have time to go with you."
