The farmers' market is only a few hundred meters away from the residential area, with stalls neatly arranged and people coming and going.

"Stay close, or you'll get lost." Jing Liang reminded Wu Tongxue, seeing her curious expression, afraid she might disappear in the blink of an eye.

"what do you like eating?"

Wu Tongxue thought for a moment, "I don't eat garlic, I don't eat bitter melon, I don't eat animal organs, but everything else is fine."

Jing Liang glanced at him, thinking he was quite easy to take care of. "Okay, let's go over there."

Wu Tongxue followed beside him, watching him buy groceries.

Jing Liang is a regular here, and many vegetable vendors know him and give him the usual discounts. Wu Tongxue regrets that she didn't get to witness any bargaining.

The aisle in the middle was neither too wide nor too narrow, but with so many people, Jing Liang carefully protected him, preventing him from colliding with others.

"Let's go over there and buy another fish and then leave."

Wu Tongxue followed him around to the other end.

"This fish is very fresh..." The fishmonger smiled as he spoke to Jing Liang.

Jing Liang was selecting fish over there, while Wu Tongxue bent down next to him to look at the fish in the tank, with bubbles constantly rising from the bottom of the tank.

Perhaps because his gaze was too focused, a fish suddenly thrashed about, its tail splashing out a huge spray of water.

With a "splash," I was caught off guard and splashed with water all over my face.

Wu Tongxue quietly wiped away the water droplets, a little unhappy; she was a fish with a bad temper.

“We want this one.” He pointed to the fish that had fallen back into the tank and was swimming around.

His little temper was written all over his face. Before Jing Liang could even greet him, the boss had already come over eagerly, "Oh dear, I'm so sorry, so sorry."

"Pull it up right away, and I'll kill it for you on the spot."

The owner went on and on about how to cook the fish, and even rounded down the price for me.

Jing Liang stood next to Wu Tongxue watching the boss kill fish.

The person next to her, whose collar was wet, didn't look disheveled at all; instead, she looked rather pitiful and quite attractive.

After glancing at it a few more times, and once my mind processed what I was thinking, I fell silent.

On the way back, he behaved much better and didn't initiate any conversations.

Wu Tongxue has a keen sense of smell. The water droplets on her body dried quickly after wiping, but a fishy smell still lingered. She frowned slightly the whole way.

The thought that it was a bad fish made me even angrier.

Upon returning to Jing Liang's house, Jing Liang asked first, "What's wrong?"

He noticed it on the way, but after thinking it over, he couldn't hold back and finally decided to ask.

I don't like the way he looks when he's unhappy.

His eyes seem to sparkle when he smiles; a smile suits him best.

Jing Liang could see the grievance on Wu Tongxue's face. "That water is for raising fish, it smells fishy, ​​and it got on me."

"How about you take a shower here and wear one of my clothes for now?"

Under Wu Tongxue's gaze, she added, "These are new clothes I bought a couple of days ago. I've washed them, but I haven't worn them yet."

Jing Liang finally saw a hint of a smile on his face.

Wu Tongxue smiled and said in a voice as sweet as clear spring water, "Thank you, you are such a good person."

Good-natured Jing Liang found him some clothes before going to the kitchen to get busy.

Jing Liang put on his apron and glanced at the fish that had been cleaned on the cutting board. This needed to be done carefully; given Wu Tongxue's temper, she would probably eat quite a lot later.

The sound of running water came from the bathroom, while Jing Liang was chopping vegetables in the kitchen with a knife. Birdsong and insect chirping came from outside the window.

The midday sun only penetrated three inches into the window, and in the warm golden light, dust particles shimmered and danced in the breeze.

Jing Liang kept a close eye on the bathroom area.

The young master doesn't seem like someone you can easily take care of; you have to keep an eye on him at all times.

"Meow!" A fluffy orange creature leaped past the window, scurried up the treetop in a flash, and before Jing Liang could react, he could only catch a glimpse of a large, orange-white rear end.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly, and Wu Tongxue was fine after taking a shower and leaving the bathroom.

"I'm all done." She told Jing Liang in the living room, touched her half-dry hair, and went back to blow-dry it.

Jing Liang heard the sound and turned around from the kitchen, but saw no one in the living room.

After a while, I heard the sound of a hairdryer drying my hair.

Touching her hair and finding it dry, Wu Tongxue moved to the kitchen doorway and stood there looking inside.

A plume of smoke rose from the wok, accompanied by a sizzling sound and the aroma of food filling the air.

Wu Tongxue exclaimed in amazement at the sight of Jing Liang flipping the wok with one hand.

Jing Liang turned around, still handling the food with ease, and said, "It's too smoky in here, don't come in. Go wait in the living room."

His wheat-colored face showed strong and sharp lines, with a distinct jawline. After speaking, he turned back to stare at the pot.

After staring at the bulging muscles in his arms for two seconds, Wu Tongxue looked away from his tall back and obediently moved back to the living room.

What a strong force.

He can't really help with cooking, so he just tries his best not to cause any trouble.

When the food was ready, Wu Tongxue stopped watching TV and went to help serve the dishes.

Jing Liang gave him a white T-shirt and army green cargo pants. The white T-shirt, which was tight on Jing Liang, was slightly loose on Wu Tongxue, whose arms were as white and tender as tofu.

The plate of vegetables will probably turn red if you scald it a little.

Jing Liang brought out the dishes and carried them to the table, avoiding him, saying, "Go get the chopsticks."

By the time Wu Tongxue found the chopsticks and came out, Jing Liang had already quickly taken all the dishes over and handed the bowl of rice he was holding to Wu Tongxue, who had returned to the kitchen.

"Okay, let's go out."

He scooped up another bowl of rice and then followed Wu Tongxue out.

After sitting down, Wu Tongxue's gaze immediately fell on the milky white fish soup in the large white porcelain bowl, with emerald green scallions floating on top. The dish was placed in front of him, and waves of aroma wafted into his nose.

It instantly makes you forget the fishy smell.

Wu Tongxue wasn't picky about food and ate a little of every dish; Jing Liang's cooking skills were excellent.

He drank two bowls of fish soup before putting down his chopsticks.

After the meal, Wu Tongxue helped clean up the dishes, but Jing Liang stopped her with a simple "there's a dishwasher."

Jing Liang picked up his bowl and chopsticks, paused, and said, "There's some flower tea in that cabinet over there. Could you get it for me?"

Having found him a task, Jing Liang turned around and quickly cleared the table.

Wu Tongxue brought over some flower tea, and was then told to go to another cabinet to find a cup.

There were several mugs in the cabinet. He picked out a red apple mug and then took out a black and white dog mug.

Soon, two cups of fragrant jasmine tea appeared.

Wu Tongxue sniffed it. "It smells so good."

The room was filled with the fragrance of flowers. Jing Liang hadn't expected the flower tea to smell so good; he had only remembered that he had it at home because he thought Wu Tongxue might like it.

Seeing how much Wu Tongxue liked it, Jing Liang thought the fragrance of the flowers was quite nice.

The rising mist seemed to veil a thin layer of fog, obscuring everything.

Wu Tongxue rested her chin on her hands, looking at the flower tea with a contented expression. Her hair was fluffy, her eyes were bright and her skin was fair. The room was well-lit, and her skin seemed to be glowing with a light, white light.

The ripples of water from the glass reflected in her eyes, along with the dark red of apples, creating a gentle and alluring effect.
