The next day, Li Zijin woke up leisurely. This time she slept so peacefully for some reason. This was a feeling she had never experienced before while lying in the master's arms.
This wooden bed is obviously hard, why is it so comfortable? When I woke up, my thoughts were still not smooth, so I stopped thinking about it.
Drowsily, she wanted to rub her eyes with her hands, and then she noticed that her hand was held by another person, or that she was holding it tightly and not letting go.
None of this matters anymore, what matters is why it is placed on her chest.
I almost wanted to take out my hand and slap that person away, but stopped after seeing who it was.
Guang Shu was sitting by the bed, looking at her with a gentle face. When he saw her waking up, he asked softly:
"Zijin, you're awake. How did you sleep?"
"It's okay, but the bed is very hard..."
As she spoke, she straightened up and took the hand on her chest aside.
However, the two people's right hands were still tightly clasped together, and neither of them had any intention of letting go.
Feeling the warmth of each other's palms, for a long time, the two of them spoke tacitly.
Guang Shu took the lead in talking:
"Zijin, I'm a little hungry. It's time to grill today's five fish."
But Li Zijin just shook his head slightly and said;
"I secretly tasted it yesterday when I was baking it. The dark stuff didn't taste good at all. I haven't made any progress after so long. In fact, you were lying to me from the beginning, right?"
Not caring about the embarrassment of having his lie discovered, Guangshu replied with a smile:
"I'm not kidding, it's delicious."
"Impossible, that kind of thing has nothing to do with food. Rather, what's the difference between it and the charcoal used to make a fire?"
"No, I mean, the food Zijin makes is delicious."
"Yes, really?" Seeing his active appearance, Li Zijin couldn't adapt for a while, and lowered his head shyly.
"So, I'm really hungry, go grill the fish!" Guangshu was still urging her, as if he was really looking forward to the grilled fish cooked by the saint.
Seeing his persistence, Li Zijin had no choice but to agree.
However, she made a request that she must taste the grilled fish first, lest Guang Shu frowned and swallowed it forcefully.
Smiling and nodding in agreement, Guang Shu took the first step and loosened his grip on his right hand. After all, he had been holding it all night, and he felt a little uncomfortable for a while.
Just like that, the two walked out of the cabin. One person went to make a fire and the other went to catch fish.
It didn't take long for the first piece to be baked. In fact, the saint's statement that she had not made any progress was a bit exaggerated. Looking at this piece, at least it looks pretty good and is no longer a piece of coal.
As promised before, Li Zijin picked it up and took a bite. Although it was not delicious, it was at least much better than the previous coal.
Feeling a little disappointed, she murmured in a low voice:
"How about forget it. I'll bring out today's ingredients and you can cook them. Don't let me waste the food anymore."
But Guangshu took the bitten grilled fish with one hand, without showing any discomfort, and ate it up as if nothing had happened, still praising:
"Isn't this a great improvement? I will definitely succeed if I try it a few more times.
Besides, I am also an accomplice when it comes to wasting food. "
Obviously he was referring to the fish soup last night, and Li Zijin just remembered that the fish soup he had been hiding had been drank.
After she drank the bowl of fish soup yesterday, she had been trying to prevent Guang Shu from drinking it. After all, he had swore to brag about how delicious the fish soup was before, and she was afraid that he would not be able to get off the stage after drinking it.
The unreasonable request to listen to three stories before giving him soup was because he wanted to wait until the fish soup had cooled down and changed its flavor before giving it to him, so that maybe he would not discover the original problem with the fish soup.
It's a pity that she is cute and silly, so even if the fish soup gets cold, it won't go rancid so quickly.
Guang Shu, who had not slept all night last night, also thought about this, and thought that he had told ghost stories to scare her, and he felt even more guilty.
Li Zijin saw the subtle look in Guang Shu's eyes at this moment, and he wanted to hide it:
"The fish soup yesterday was delicious. I didn't lie to you. It was just left out for too long and turned rancid because of the cold."
"Uh-huh."
Guangshu responded perfunctorily. Seeing his appearance, he definitely still didn't believe what he said. The saint wanted to continue to explain.
But he was interrupted by a big hand on his head, caressing him gently, as if comforting a child.
"Okay, okay, I believe it, okay."
"Well~ don't treat me like a child." Although she felt a little comfortable, she still shook her head and wanted to get rid of Guangshu's big hand.
She was familiar with this feeling, because the master often stroked her head like this when she was acting coquettishly.
Feeling her slight resistance, Guangshu touched her more vigorously.
After a while, feeling that the saint's patience was reaching its limit, he quickly took his hand back and continued to say as if nothing had happened:
"Zijin, what are you doing standing still? Let's continue baking the next one. I'm almost starving."
Resisting the urge to bite him, Li Zijin retracted his previous thoughts and said viciously:
"You should eat this fish yourself. You have to finish it for me no matter how it is made!"
After saying that, without waiting for his reply, he set up a fire and continued to bake. This time, he directly turned the fire to the maximum. In a moment, a fresh piece of coal came out of the oven.
Resisting the corners of his mouth that wanted to twitch, Guang Shu took the "fish" in her hand with tears in his eyes and took a bite.
What Li Zijin didn't expect was that he heard a burst of satisfied praise:
"Wow! This time it's really delicious."
Guangshu caught a glimpse of her disbelieving look and directly stuffed the grilled fish into the saint's mouth.
The movement was so fast that she couldn't react. Then, an indescribable taste instantly hit her taste buds, and she couldn't bear it anymore, so she spit it out.
Only now did Li Zijin truly understand how Guang Shu felt before, how he swallowed this thing as if nothing had happened, and could even endure praising her craftsmanship.
"Bah, bah, bah..." And the aftertaste is still lingering in my mouth, and I can't let it go for a long time.
Guang Shu on the side couldn't help laughing when he saw her like this, but he quickly poured out half a cup of fairy brew and handed it to her to wash away the taste in her mouth.
If it's just half a cup, nothing will happen. As he thought this, Li Zijin grabbed it anxiously and drank it.
As Guang Shu wished, she couldn't drink so much. The taste in her mouth was indeed washed away, but the alcohol choked her and made her cough uncontrollably, and her face turned red.
It can be said that Li Zijin's drinking capacity is not at all. Her master protected her so well that he never let her drink alcohol many times since she was a child.
Even at the last banquet, she started to toast with only juice. But everyone did not blame her for the sake of her master.
But Guangshu was only focused on the delicious food in front of him and didn't notice.
Even with his drinking capacity, he would still be dizzy after taking a few sips of this fairy brew.
Not to mention Li Zijin, although it was only half a cup, she was already completely drunk and fell directly towards him.
