"Peizhen? Look, A 'Jing is really amazing. It's his first time learning and he's done it so well. "
Xiang Caiping taught Ling Jing a few times. She did not expect him to master it so quickly. He finished one very smoothly. Although his movements weren't fast, at least he wrapped it up well.
"…" Su Peizhen didn't say anything. The dumpling in her hand seemed to have become Ling Jing's.
She squeezed it hard.
"Peizhen?"
Xiang Caiping happened to see Su Peizhen's movements. She also felt it. The dumplings that she had prepared were crushed just like that.
Just like that, the stuffing inside was exposed and stained with oil from Su Peizhen's hand.
"Are you okay? I didn't think there was anything wrong with your dumplings. Why did you crush it out of the blue? "
Xiang Caiping looked at her, and so did Ling Jing.
The corners of Su Peizhen's mouth twitched, and her smile was a little stiff.
"I'm fine. I wasn't careful. "
Su Peizhen gave Ling Jing a cold look, stood up, and went to the kitchen to wash her hands.
The cold water washed over her palms, calming her down a little. Forget it. Why should she bother with a bastard like Ling Jing?
If he wanted to stay, he could stay. If he wanted to stay, he could stay. What he did would only make her hate him even more.
After washing her hands, Su Peizhen was in no hurry to leave. She placed her hands on the counter and pondered seriously.
How was he going to get Ling Jing out? She was absolutely unwilling to be in the same room with him.
Shameless! Did he think that she would compromise just like that? It was ridiculous.
After a few deep breaths, Su Peizhen finally calmed down.
It was the New Year, and she wanted Xiang Caiping to be happy. If Ling Jing's presence could make Xiang Caiping happy, then she would reluctantly let him stay.
She would just treat it as a clown who could make Xiang Caiping happy.
Thinking of this, Su Peizhen felt much better.
By the time she walked out of the kitchen, Su Peizhen had already composed herself.
She sat down again as if nothing had happened and began to wrap the dumplings again.
She pretended not to see Ling Jing's gaze on her. She answered Xiang Caiping's questions very seriously, but she did not look in Ling Jing's direction.
The three of them worked very quickly, and the dumplings were soon ready.
Xiang Caiping carried the dumplings to the kitchen.
"Take a seat first, I'll cook the dumplings."
"Auntie, do you need help?" Ling Jing once again stood up very attentively. His attitude was sincere and he behaved well.
Xiang Caiping smiled like a flower, and the fine wrinkles on her face seemed to have lightened.
"No need, no need. Cook a dumpling. What do I need your help with? Sit down for a while. Watch some TV. I'll be done in a minute. "
Su Peizhen stood up, not intending to stay any longer.
He got up and went to the living room to turn on the TV. She had no interest in the Spring Festival Gala or the kind of programs that would be full of joy during the Spring Festival.
Using the remote control, he found a film. It was a very popular documentary this year. It was about delicious food.
Su Peizhen sat on the sofa and looked very serious.
Until Ling Jing sat down beside her. When he sat down, she forced herself to ignore him.
She wouldn't purposely move to the side to avoid him. That would make him seem important. She didn't want to give him the wrong impression.
However, when Ling Jing put her hand on her thigh, Su Peizhen couldn't bear it anymore.
She raised her hand and hit the back of Ling Jing's hand hard.
The back of Ling Jing's hand turned red from the slap. However, he refused to take his hand away.
"You're so strong." He leaned close to her ear. "Why don't you do it here again?"
He pointed to his face. There was an obvious provocation in his eyes. Su Peizhen bit her lip and really raised her hand.
Her hand fell in mid-air and was caught by Ling Jing.
He looked at her, then looked in the direction of the kitchen. "You really hit her? Aren't you afraid that Auntie will see it when she comes out later? "
"Her daughter was harassed by a pervert. What else can I do but hit her?" Su Peizhen looked at him expressionlessly. "Maybe after I hit her, she will say that it was a good hit."
"You …"
This woman really made him hate and angry, annoy and love her at the same time.
He stretched out his long arm and directly buckled her waist. He lowered his head and was about to kiss her.
"Ling Jing, if you stop messing around, believe it or not, I will shed all pretense of cordiality and call the police now, saying that you trespassed on my house."
"You won't." After saying that, Ling Jing moved his face closer. "Because you don't want your mother to be unhappy."
As soon as he finished speaking, their lips touched. She could only see his enlarged face.
Anger began to gather in his eyes. As soon as she raised her hand, it was held behind her back by him. The situation of her hands being restrained made her whole body arch in his direction.
The movement made Ling Jing smile as if she was throwing herself into his arms. He couldn't help but deepen the kiss.
The TV was still on, and the sounds of Xiang Caiping busying herself could be heard from the kitchen.
At first, Su Peizhen gritted her teeth and refused to let him go deeper, but this damn man was simply too much of a jerk.
He pinched her waist. It didn't hurt, but it itched.
She couldn't help but loosen. And in such a short time, his snake had successfully broken in.
Taking a step back would mean taking a step back at every step. Su Peizhen couldn't resist Ling Jing's kiss.
For a long time, he didn't taste her lips again. He didn't kiss her like this again, or hold her like this.
Ling Jing almost didn't want to let go. However, he knew what it meant to know when to stop and when to stop.
He let go of her, raised his hand, and stroked her lips. His gaze was so deep, as if he could put her whole body in it.
"Peizhen …"
His voice was close to a sigh. It felt especially sexy when her name came out of his mouth like this.
Su Peizhen's heartbeat was a little out of order. She suddenly pushed him hard. She sat at an arm's length away from him.
Whether she admitted it or not, Ling Jing's kissing skills were damn good. His voice was the same.
"Peizhen …"
Ling Jing called her again. Su Peizhen glared at him as if she had been electrocuted. She quickly got up and went in the direction of the kitchen without looking back.
In the kitchen, the water had already been boiled. Xiang Caiping was putting the dumplings into the pot.
"Mom, do you need help?"
"Sure." Xiang Caiping nodded. "Set the bowls. Take out the cold dishes we bought earlier and serve them. I'll cook two more dishes later, and then we can eat. "
Because there were only two of them, Xiang Caiping didn't intend to cook too much. But now that Ling Jing was here, she definitely had to add two more dishes.
"Okay."
Dinner was not considered a sumptuous meal for someone like Ling Jing.
The Ling family celebrated the new year like Cixi eating. The table was filled with delicacies. But to Ling Jing, that table of dishes was not as good as the steaming dumplings in front of him.
"Come, try it." Xiang Caiping personally served a bowl of dumplings to Ling Jing. "Auntie's cooking is average. You're welcome. "
"Thank you, Auntie."
Taking the bowl of dumplings, Ling Jing's eyes were a little warm.
There were five illegitimate children in the Ling family. Including him, there were six. Liu Xiyun was very good to him, but later, the old man got into a car accident. After the accident and injury, his health became much worse.
Therefore, Liu Xiyun focused most of her energy on the old man.
He was well taken care of by the servants every day. But no matter how well the servants took care of him, they were not his parents.
He couldn't even remember if he had ever eaten a bowl of rice served by Liu Xiyun. Had he ever eaten a dish served by Liu Xiyun with her chopsticks?
"Child, why aren't you eating?"
"No. I'm eating now. " Ling Jing looked up at Xiang Caiping with sincere eyes. "Auntie, you don't know. My mother has never served me rice. Auntie, you're so nice. "
Xiang Caiping was a very emotional person. As soon as she heard this, she suddenly became excited.
"Child, why are you so pitiful?"
She liked watching TV series, especially those domestic ones that were sentimental.
Ling Jing's words made her imagine countless things. Then she thought of Ling Jing being kicked out of the house by his father. All of a sudden, she imagined a pitiful life that his father didn't love and his mother didn't love.
"Eat more." Xiang Caiping looked distressed. "No wonder you're so thin. How pitiful. "
The corner of Su Peizhen's mouth twitched. If it weren't for her good upbringing. She really couldn't help but flip the table.
Ling Jing was pitiful?
Mom, don't be funny. He was not pitiful at all.
He was the dignified young master of the Ling family. His family property was calculated by hundreds of millions. He had countless properties under his name, and he casually played with your daughter. Was he pitiful?
"Peizhen, you eat too."
Thinking that Su Peizhen was unhappy that she only served Ling Jing, Xiang Caiping quickly served Su Peizhen a bowl.
Su Peizhen took the bowl and shot Ling Jing a glare without hesitation.
Unexpectedly, Ling Jing's eyes seemed to be a little red, and it looked like she was really moved.
The more he acted like this, the more Su Peizhen felt uncomfortable and disgusted. How could there be such a man? It was really infuriating.
It was really too much to act like this in front of Xiang Caiping.
"Auntie, it's so delicious." Ling Jing tasted a dumpling and praised Xiang Caiping's cooking. She praised Xiang Caiping's culinary skills with great approval. "Auntie, your culinary skills are amazing."
It was indeed not the cooking of a famous chef, but the dumplings tasted more like home.
"Eat more if you like it." Xiang Caiping sat down and thought of what Ling Jing said just now. She took a pair of chopsticks and picked up a few dishes for him, putting them in the bowl in front of him.
"Eat more." What a pitiful child.
Su Peizhen had a hard time holding back. She could only eat the dumplings in her bowl to vent her anger.
She repeatedly reminded herself not to be angry, not to be angry. Ling Jing didn't deserve her anger on the New Year.
She didn't speak, but it didn't mean that Ling Jing wouldn't speak.
She chatted with Xiang Caiping about some of the customs of Rong City during the New Year.
Su Peizhen had been in Rong City for two or three years, so she really didn't know much about the customs there. But Xiang Caiping knew.
The two of them seemed to have found a bosom friend, and they talked very passionately.
Su Peizhen once again became the background. No matter how she gave Ling Jing a sharp look, it was useless.
After finishing the meal, Su Peizhen wanted to chase Ling Jing away.
Unexpectedly, Xiang Caiping looked at her and said quite naturally, "Peizhen, clean up the guest room. A 'Jing can stay tonight."
