Perhaps her disdainful look was too obvious. After being silent for a few seconds, Li Yunzheng explained: "These kitchen utensils are all new. I want to wash them before using them. Maybe I put too much detergent in them. My hands slipped and I dropped two plates." , it’s not a big problem.”
Within ten minutes of entering the kitchen, two dishes were broken, and it was not a big problem.
Gu Mingyan didn't want to say anything.
Li Yunzheng cleared his throat: "You go out first, I will call you when you are done."
"Then how long will it take you to get it done?"
"One hour."
Gu Mingyan looked at the time and said, "It's half past nine now. It's half past ten when you finish washing and finishing."
She sounded a little depressed: "I haven't eaten for a day."
If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have gone to the supermarket to buy food with him and ordered takeout instead.
Seeing his clumsy look, Gu Mingyan didn't want to wait and went straight in: "I'll do it. You go out and don't get in the way here."
Li Yunzheng hesitated: "You know how?"
"You have forgotten that I grew up in my uncle's house. My aunt used me as a free nanny. I basically took care of their three meals a day."
Li Yunzheng pursed his lips.
Gu Mingyan waved his hand and drove him out.
She was used to doing kitchen work at her uncle's house. In her previous life, Li Yunzheng kept her at home with nothing to do. In order to prevent herself from going crazy and breaking down, she relied on studying recipes and desserts to calm her soul.
Over time, she also gained certain attainments in cooking.
It took Li Yunzheng an hour to make a meat dish, a vegetable dish and a soup dish. He didn't know if he could finish it, but Gu Mingyan had it on the table in twenty minutes.
Li Yunzheng looked at her skillful movements and thought of her life in the Jiang family, and his face darkened for no reason.
Gu Mingyan didn't know what he was thinking. Seeing him staring at the food without moving his chopsticks, he explained: "This seaweed soup comes with its own seasoning packet. I didn't know until after putting it in that there was chopped green onion. If you don't eat green onions, just ignore it."
Li Yunzheng didn't say anything, but picked up the small bowl and filled a few spoonfuls.
Gu Mingyan was surprised. Didn't he not eat onions?
As if he knew what she was thinking, Li Yunzheng raised his eyes and looked at her: "Taste can change, and I think your concept of me can also change."
Gu Mingyan sneered: "That's because you think too much. After going through what I went through, you won't change."
Li Yunzheng frowned: "It's just some dreams, it can't be taken seriously."
"To me, it's a real thing. It all really happened in my previous life."
"..."
She regarded the dream as reality and thought it was something that really happened in her previous life, which made Li Yunzheng not sure how to deal with it.
He finished a small bowl of soup and ate all the chopped green onions floating on top of the soup.
Gu Mingyan didn't expect that he could really change his taste, so he asked suspiciously: "Actually, you didn't hate onions that much before, right?"
Li Yunzheng said lightly: "I hate it. I've hated it since I was a child, especially the dumplings with green onions in them."
Gu Mingyan was stunned, and the image of a woman named Ayu suddenly popped into his mind, grabbing the two or three-year-old him, forcefully stuffing hot dumplings into his mouth, and forcing him to swallow it.
That dream was so suffocating that after Gu Mingyan woke up, she tried her best not to think about it.
Now it was brought out again by his words.
At the same time, I was a little confused as to why I could dream about those things inexplicably.
Are those dreams real?
If it was true, how could she dream about Li Yunzheng when he was a child?
And who is that woman named Ayu?
She is obviously not Mrs. Li.
Why would Li Yunzheng call her mother?
Gu Mingyan thought again that Li Jiangchen once told her that Li Yuncheng was lost when he was a child and experienced some bad things...
Could it be the things she dreamed about?
Gu Mingyan asked tentatively: "Xiaochen told me that you were lost for a while when you were a child."
Li Yunzheng frowned and raised his head: "When did he tell you?"
"I came back some time ago and said a few words, but not much." Gu Mingyan stirred the chopsticks in the bowl, "Really?"
I heard him say "hmm" for a long time.
She continued, "How old were you when you were lost?"
Li Yunzheng's eyes darkened: "Are you curious?"
"I'm not curious, just ask casually."
"If you're not curious, then don't ask."
Only then did Gu Mingyan look up at him. He lowered his head and drank the soup calmly, his expression indifferent and distant.
He didn't want to talk about these things.
That's right, if he wanted to say something, he would have said it a long time ago in his previous life, and he would not have been entangled with her for ten years without revealing anything.
If Li Jiangchen hadn't suddenly mentioned it last time, Gu Mingyan probably wouldn't have known about it in this life.
Gu Mingyan finally plucked up the courage to get to know him, but was so taken aback by his attitude that she didn't want to ask anything at all.
Although she still had a lot of doubts in her heart, she suppressed them all.
This kind of heart-to-heart talk is not suitable for them.
Getting to know him better wouldn't change their relationship.
**
After eating, Li Yunzheng went to clean up, and the sound of rushing water came from the kitchen.
Gu Mingyan was sitting on the sofa in the living room watching TV, but his mind was not on the TV at all.
She was in a daze.
She and Li Yunzheng have never been as peaceful as they are now.
Especially when the two of them are alone.
In her previous life, when she was trapped in this house alone, she could feel more relaxed as long as he was not around, but she would be nervous when he came back.
She would avoid being in the same space with him. For example, if he was in the living room, she would go back to the bedroom. When he entered the bedroom, she would make excuses saying that she couldn't sleep and wanted to watch TV.
Unlike now, when we can finish a meal together calmly, he goes to wash up, and she can still sit quietly, her mood is relatively calm.
While Gu Mingyan was thinking about it, Li Yunzheng came out of the kitchen.
He was washing dishes without an apron, and his white T-shirt had a large patch of wetness on his belly.
He came over and sat down next to her.
Gu Mingyan felt that the space in the living room was starting to become cramped again.
In his previous life, he would not behave like this. He would hold her over and let her sit on his lap. He would put his hands around her waist and kiss her shoulders and neck while she watched TV.
Kissing her, he would lose control, put her on the sofa, throw away the remote control in her hand, let her put her arms around his neck, and force her to bear his domineering love.
The memories were too clear, Gu Mingyan's breathing became heavier and she felt uncomfortable all over.
The silent Li Yunzheng suddenly spoke: "You..."
Gu Mingyan pushed him away reflexively and pushed him down on the sofa.
Li Yunzheng looked at her in astonishment.
Gu Mingyan was embarrassed for two seconds, then stood up pretending to be calm: "It's getting late, I'm going to bed."
Li Yunzheng sat up: "Don't you want to explain?"
"..."
What was the explanation? Why did she push him away so excitedly because she thought he would touch her like he did in the previous life?
Gu Mingyan couldn't explain it, so she pursed her lips and said, "Sorry."
Li Yunzheng sighed: "Don't be so nervous, I just want to ask you if you have thought about it."
Thinking about being his girlfriend...
Gu Mingyan almost forgot about this.
Li Yunzheng said slowly: "If you agree one day in advance, half a year can end a little earlier, what do you think?"
He will give up his entanglement with her in half a year. This temptation is too great for Gu Mingyan.
Then Li Yunzheng saw her beautiful little head, just as he wished, and nodded slowly.
Li Yunzheng smiled: "Good night then, girlfriend."
Gu Mingyan returned to the bedroom with a straight face and closed the door.
Outside the door, Li Yunzheng sat on the sofa in a good mood for a while, then turned off the TV and went to the guest room.
In the master bedroom, Gu Mingyan was leaning against the door, suddenly feeling that she had made a wrong decision.
But there is no other way to get rid of him.
Shaking her head, she went to take a shower.
After taking a shower, Gu Mingyan lay on the bed and stared at the dark ceiling for more than ten minutes before her eyelids gradually became heavy.
Then something strange happened and she had that dream again.
She dreamed of Ayu and Xiao Li Yunzheng again.
