Qi Huairen was not happy, but Qu Xiu was very happy: "Brother Xu, the pork belly and chicken soup we had last time tasted really good."
He glanced at Mu Jinghua and quickly added: "My master also said that giving Mu Ge more of this kind of food will be much better for his health."
Xu Shu saw through his little thoughts, but did not expose him. Instead, he smiled and said, "It's boring to always eat that kind of food. I'll take you to eat something new."
"What else is new?" Qu Xiu shouted excitedly, "The pig tripe and chicken soup is quite new. I've never eaten it before anyway."
"How old are you? What good food have you ever eaten?" Xu Shu glanced at him indifferently, and then said to Mu Jinghua, "There are stairs here, go slowly."
Qu Xiu was a little unconvinced: "You are only twenty-three years old, not even half of what my master has. My master has never eaten it either."
"Are you praising me or scolding your master?" Xu Shu was speechless. "What you said makes no sense."
"I'm..." Qu Xiu didn't know what to do, so he looked at Mu Jinghua, "Brother Mu, please take care of your Xu Shu."
Mu Jinghua shrank back behind Xu Shu embarrassedly.
Xu Shu subconsciously protected him: "Don't bully my little Mu Jin."
Qu Xiu was speechless. How could this be considered bullying?
But he was a magnanimous man, and because of the delicious food, he didn't bother with the two men.
They went to the same old place, but Wu Yong was not there this time. After asking the waiter, Xu Shu learned that he had returned to Shiqiao Village. He couldn't help but smile and said, "He goes to Shiqiao Village every few days. He is really diligent."
The waiter also laughed with him and imitated Wu Yong's original words: "Our boss said that we should communicate more and improve our relationship. We should try to make Brother Le act like a spoiled child to me in the same way that Brother Mu acted like a spoiled child to Xu Shu."
"Hahaha." Xu Shu also laughed and looked at Mu Jinghua, "Did you hear that? I'm not the only one who said that. Your brother Yong also said that you're always acting like a spoiled brat."
Mu Jinghua smiled but thought in his heart, if he acted more like a spoiled child, Xu Shu would marry him, and he would be willing to act like a spoiled child every day.
Xu Shu ordered a double hotpot, with one side being a pork belly and chicken soup pot, and the other side being a tomato soup pot.
Unfortunately, Wu Yong has not yet figured out a way to move the stove to the table, so he can only order the dishes and have the kitchen cook them and serve them.
Originally, Xu Shu wanted to make a spicy beef oil hotpot, but cows in this world are generally used as sacrifices and are important livestock for farming, so it is difficult to get beef, let alone extract butter.
But these two flavors are pretty good.
Especially the tomato soup. In order to make this, Xu Shu contributed a lot of tomato sauce and asked the chef to figure out the method of making tomato sauce and made this pot of tomato soup.
Unfortunately, Mu Jinghua couldn’t see anything now, so he could only listen to Qu Xiu’s flattery and barely guess how shocking Xu Shu’s so-called “low-end version of hot pot” was.
Xu Shu knew that his eyesight was not convenient, so he asked the waiter to bring a spoon. He picked up the food with chopsticks, dipped it in sesame paste, and put it in Mu Jinghua's spoon.
"Be careful, it's hot. These are spring bamboo shoots. Blow them before eating."
Mu Jinghua nodded in agreement. Just after taking a bite, he heard Xu Shu ask, "Do you like it?"
He smiled and nodded, the spoon in his hand heavier.
"Chicken, no bones, try it."
Mu Jinghua ate it as instructed.
Qu Xiu ate for a while, then looked up and saw Xu Shu and Mu Jinghua standing very close to each other. He suddenly covered his eyes and said to Mu Jinghua in a fuss, "I told you Xu Shu loves you and would come to see you more often. Look at you, Big Brother Xu, he almost wants to feed you with his own hands."
"You were so distraught that day. It was really unnecessary."
Mu Jinghua paused slightly.
Xu Shu tapped Qu Xiu's head with the other end of his chopsticks, but he didn't really want to bring up the topic. He just said to Mu Jinghua, "Don't be in a daze. Eat quickly."
He was distraught and heartbroken these days, wasn't he?
Mu Jinghua was the first person he truly cared about since he came into this world. Although they were not inseparable, they saw each other every day.
He felt bad after not seeing her for three whole days.
But he is an adult and has his own principles and bottom line. Even if she really has some feelings for Mu Jinghua, she cannot show it before he reaches adulthood.
Otherwise, wouldn't he be a villain who seduced and raped minors?
Moreover, he didn't know whether Mu Jinghua really liked him at the moment, or whether she was mixed up with some other feelings. If he made a hasty decision now, in the future, when Mu Jinghua grew up...
If I regret it, if I fall in love with someone else, if I suddenly realize that I didn't love him at all but simply admired him, and then he leaves me and runs away with some other stinky man.
As a criminal who seduced and raped a minor, does he have any room to speak up? Is there any possibility of redemption?
Xu Shu didn't dare to think about such a thing, so even though he had realized that he might have some different feelings towards Xiao Mujin, he subconsciously denied it and was unwilling to accept it.
However, Mu Jinghua obviously understood. He has always been smart and did not do anything excessive like he did that night.
But Xu Shu noticed that he looked indifferent after dinner and was not in a good mood. In the end, he did not have the heart to tell him that he was leaving, but urged him to change into new clothes and go somewhere with him.
Sure enough, Mu Jinghua immediately pulled him to smile. This soft look inexplicably reminded Xu Shu of the soft, ingratiating smile he gave her after he forcefully kissed her that night.
Alas, Xu Shu sighed and patted his head: "Go change your clothes, I bought you new ones and took you to see Yichun Tower."
When Mu Jinghua heard the name of Yichun Tower, his movements paused slightly.
Xu Shu saw what he was thinking and comforted him, "Don't be afraid. Do you remember what I said? I'll give you this building and you can be the boss."
"Yichunlou doesn't sound like a nice name. What do you want to name it?"
Mu Jinghua shook his head helplessly. How could he know how to name a child? He hadn't even studied for a few months. "What name do you want to give it?"
Xu Shu pulled him into the house, and as they walked, he said, "Since this building is a gift to you, it should naturally follow your last name, Mu... Light clouds weave across distant peaks, drizzling rain covers the mountains. Why not call it Muyi Building? Do you like it?"
Mu Jinghua didn't quite understand, but he liked all the names Xu Shuqi gave, so he smiled and nodded.
Xu Shu urged him again: "The clothes are laid out on the bed for you. Put them on from left to right. Be careful not to fall. Remember to knock on the door and call me if you have any problems."
Seeing Mu Jinghua nodded, he also went to Qu Xiu's room and quickly changed his clothes.
During the past two days, Xu Shu had been selling his store and had bought a lot of accessories from the jewelry store. They were all top-notch items. When paired with the tailor-made clothes made of high-end fabrics, the quality of the store instantly improved a lot.
Her hair has grown a lot longer in the past few months and can be tied up with a hairpin. Xu Shu doesn't know how to use that thing, so she has always tied it into a high ponytail with a headband. This time, she added a jade crown on the headband.
However, he prepared a hairpin for Mu Jinghua, a silver hairpin engraved with a hibiscus flower and a small ruby hanging at the pistil, which was very delicate and beautiful.
