The Queen of Romance: A Summer of Sweet Classics

Chapter 73

When Ji's aunt was preparing lunch in the kitchen, Huo Xiyin helped out a little and called back. At the end, she made a complete fish-flavored shredded pork by herself.

This dish is still the cooking skills that Shen Jing showed when she first met her husband's family, and now Huo Xiyin brought it over intact.In fact, my aunt's craftsmanship is much better than hers, and her dish is just for show.But because she was conscientious and followed the process meticulously, the final result was not bad, with a rich flavor and bright colors. To use an official language, although it is quite satisfactory, there are also some bright spots.

But her craftsmanship is really average, and this home-cooked dish makes her a little flustered.Fortunately, Ji Zhandong is not picky on weekdays, as long as the dishes she cooks are not too difficult to swallow, he will usually swallow them with dignity.

Huo Xiyin would do some weird things on occasion.For example, sprinkle pepper on tomato sauce, or put two Chaotian peppers in sweet porridge.Most of the time the results will be disastrous, but on rare occasions it will be a feast.It's just because she made it casually, so she always forgets the ingredients and the ratio of ingredients when she wants to do it next time.

At this time, Ji Zhandong would remind her of all the ingredients she had used and list them out, even remembering exactly where she put them.Huo Xiyin had nothing but admiration for this. He was obviously just standing leisurely leaning against the door frame at that time, but he didn't expect to remember it better than her afterwards.

When eating, Ji's mother instructed her to drink fish soup, so Huo Xiyin watched her eyes, nose, nose, and heart, concentrating all her energy on the bowl of fish soup that would never be empty.Then Mother Ji was very satisfied, and almost all the topics at the dinner table were locked on her: "Does the clothes you cut last time still fit? Is the one you are wearing now one of the ones you ordered last time? I looked not bad."

"Are you busy with work recently? I think you should start doing something about your marriage."

After a while, he said: "In the future, you should eat more meals. Girls can't always think about losing weight. Health is the most important thing."

Huo Xiyin obediently responded to every word Ji Mu said, and she responded to what she said.This kind of thoughtless answer was quite relaxed, so the lunch was passed without incident.

In the afternoon, Ji Zhandong followed Father Ji to the study to receive routine lectures.Huo Xiyin remembered that Ji Zhandong once complained half-truthfully that his most troublesome place was Ji Zhai's study.Probably due to psychological shadows from childhood, the study in Ji Zhandong's high-end apartment is almost deserted.Although there were two full rows of books inside, she never saw him go in and look through them.But if asked occasionally, Ji Zhandong could accurately tell the location of each book, as well as the general content and abstract essence of the book, and his memory was so good that she was jealous.

Huo Xiyin and Mother Ji stayed in the living room to talk.When Mother Ji was chatting instead of giving instructions, Huo Xiyin had to start calculating the content and length of each reply in her heart.This kind of thing is much more tiring. Fortunately, Ji's mother quickly showed her the photos of Ji Zhandong when he was a child, so that she could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

There are very few photos of Ji Zhandong, except for graduation photos and ID photos, not even many photos taken during travel.Because the occasion of taking pictures is very serious, so most of his expressions are expressionless.However, his ID photo turned out to be very handsome. Huo Xiyin always felt that the ID photo could distort a person's original appearance, but he didn't expect it to be a special case here.

Later, they finally found a photo of Ji Zhandong smiling.Probably because of being secretly photographed, his smile has not been retracted in time, his two hands are in the shape of a "person" supporting his chin, his head is slightly tilted, the corners of his mouth are smiling, and his eyes are also slightly narrowed, as if he saw something that he expected. Someone or something outside, with a little surprise in his expression, a little mischievous.

Mother Ji smiled: "I've never seen this photo before. I don't know why Zhandong stuffed it in. But judging by his appearance, it seems that he was in college."

Huo Xiyin stared at the suspension bridge behind him in the photo for a while, and it took a long time for him to respond with a "hmm".

After dinner, they left Ji's house. Before leaving, Ji's mother gave her a very fine jade pendant.Huo Xiyin's neck was long and thin, and the jade pendant hung around her neck, always feeling like it was about to fall.Mother Ji said: "I asked for this in a temple a while ago, it can keep you safe. I know that Zhandong won't wear these things, so I only asked for one for you."

Huo Xiyin replied respectfully: "Thank you, Mom."

Later, when the two were on their way back, Huo Xiyin looked out of the car with his chin propped up again.She has always acted like this in his car, because Ji Zhandong's driving posture is too lazy and casual, she thinks it would be ridiculous if she sits upright, and at the same time, they often don't have much to talk about, and they often stay silent all the way.And when she looks out of the car like this, it will reduce her pressure a little.

Ji Zhandong spoke behind her: "My friend gave me two tickets to the XX concert two days ago. Didn't you say you like that musician a lot? I don't think I'll be free this Friday night. You and Shen Jing should go see it. "

"Ah."

"The last time Shen Jing quarreled with Zhou Chen, what did you persuade your cousin? Zhou Chen said that was the fastest time for Shen Jing to calm down."

"Well."

"Huo Xiyin, do you think that is a UFO in front of you?"

Huo Xiyin finally turned to look at him: "Have you been so tired that you have hallucinations recently?"

Ji Zhandong smiled at her: "So you're listening. I thought I was singing a one-man show."

Huo Xiyin snorted and continued to tilt her head to look outside the car.

When they arrived downstairs in his apartment, the two of them just got out of the car when Ji Zhandong grabbed Huo Xiyin's wrist.She struggled a bit, but failed, and then he led her to the elevator.

The smooth elevator doors reflected the figures of the two.Huo Xiyin didn't wear high heels today, if she tilted her head slightly, she could just lean on his shoulder.The number of elevators decreased little by little, they stood at the front of the crowd, and Ji Zhandong still held her hand tightly.

They behaved dignifiedly in the elevator, but as soon as they entered the apartment, Ji Zhandong hugged her around the waist. She just felt dizzy, and then found herself lying on the bed in the master bedroom, with Ji Zhandong hugging her loosely.

Even a small breath in the dark night is like a temptation.Ji Zhandong didn't move, just groped to find her hair, then the eyebrows, then the tip of the nose, and then all the way down, his fingertips were slightly cold, Huo Xiyin didn't understand his intention, but her breathing was involuntary Take it easy.

She stopped his downward hand, and Ji Zhandong smiled hoarsely in the dark, and said something inexplicably: "Sure enough, I have become thinner."

Huo Xiyin couldn't help trembling when his breath was deliberately sprayed behind her ears.She bent her knees and wanted to kick him, but she missed, and instead he grabbed her ankle.

Ji Zhandong still had a teasing voice: "I don't know you yet, the quieter you are, the more you want to do bad things."

"I don't do as many bad things as you do."

He paused and said, "But if you do too much, you will regret it. Do you want to know what is the thing I regret the most?"

Huo Xiyin replied quickly: "I don't want to."

"why?"

"Since you regret it, it must not be a good thing. Mr. Ji, you should still rot in your heart."

He was still smiling, the cheongsam on her was like running water in his hands, and was quickly stripped off her body.Ji Zhandong leaned down and bit her chest lightly, his breath was a little unsteady, and then he said with a smile: "I was still wondering why you suddenly wore a cheongsam today, it turned out that it was from your mother. handwriting."

As long as he refuses to give in, Huo Xiyin has always had no initiative or right to speak in this regard, and her breathing gradually became a little disordered. She inserted her fingers into his hair and said, "It's just to make the old man happy. You can do it." Isn't it always better than me?"

He smiled: "That's not necessarily the case. You know my dad is an old-fashioned person who never praises others. But he actually praised you in the study today."

"That's because he hasn't seen my true face yet."

"How humble." His strength was gentle and accurate, and Huo Xiyin bit her lips tightly so as not to hum, he said softly in her ear, "But I think anyone talking to you is more effective than me now, I used to Why haven't you seen what you bought?"

She took a deep breath, swallowed the groans that almost overflowed, and said, "None of the things you bought are suitable for migrant workers."

"Avoid the important and take the light." He snorted, his hands kept moving, and the half-truth and half-false tone came over, hoarse and bewitching, and pointed to the point, "You make me feel insecure like this, I can't catch you. "

"What a coincidence, you also made me feel insecure." Huo Xiyin's breathing was broken, but his thoughts were very clear, "Why don't we postpone the wedding for another year to strengthen our sense of security."

His movements obviously stopped for a moment, and when he spoke again, his voice became very calm: "Don't even think about it." After saying this, he never gave her a chance to breathe. It was a piece of driftwood, dragged by him, unable to fight back, and then completely sank.

Afterwards, Huo Xiyin lay on his chest, she woke up from the dizziness, her hair was brushed by him again and again, Huo Xiyin felt that his actions at this moment were like stroking the soft fur of an animal.

An Ye concealed the emotions of the two of them very well, and Huo Xiyin was rarely so well-behaved.Her fingers regularly touched his chest, the nails were sharp, but the fingertips were soft. She felt him tremble slightly as she wished, but he didn't stop it.

After a while, he leaned over and opened the drawer beside the bed, and took out a small box from it.In the dark, Huo Xiyin couldn't see clearly, but he knew intuitively that it was a bracelet.He took it out and put it on her left hand. His movements were meticulous and serious, and a cool feeling came over. Huo Xiyin shook the bracelet and heard him say: "I went to the jewelry store to buy gifts for friends two days ago. When you arrive at this one, I think it should be very suitable for you.”

Huo Xiyin shook the bracelet again and remained silent for a while.Ji Zhandong sighed softly: "Actually, I should have just said, 'I went to a jewelry store and saw this one two days ago, and I think it should be very suitable for you.' Right?"

Huo Xiyin couldn't help laughing, and stepped forward to bite his chin lightly: "Well, thank you."

When Huo Xiyin went to work the next day, the office was unusually quiet, so quiet that it was almost eerie. Even Xiao Junli, who always liked to laugh, sat very peacefully in her seat, concentrating on typing out her speech.Huo Xiyin sat back in her seat, Xiao Junli suddenly touched her arm, and whispered, "Chen Yu was in a car accident while drunk driving last night, and he was gone."
