Mu Le wanted to laugh.
Gu Mingyuan was making a fuss too much. She was just cutting potatoes, but he said she was "playing with a knife."
The entire blade softened, probably caused by Gu Mingyuan's spirit.
Gu Mingyuan had a demon spirit that lived in a sword. He had used the demon spirit's power to help her cut large bones before... and now he was using it to do this kind of thing again.
Isn't this a bit of a waste of talent
Mu Le came back to her senses. After she stood firm, she smiled at Gu Mingyuan and pointed at the knife on the table: "Can you change it back?"
Gu Mingyuan's brows were still frowning. He held Mu Le's wrist and his eyes fell on the knife.
The dough-like blade of the knife slowly returned to its original shape, rolled off the potato with a snap, and fell onto the chopping board.
Kong Hean, who witnessed the whole process, shut his mouth silently.
For a moment, he felt like he was teaching the little kids bad habits and was caught by the adults.
Mu Le patted the back of Gu Mingyuan's hand and said like coaxing a child, "It's okay, nothing will happen."
Gu Mingyuan: “…”
"Don't worry." Mu Le said, "Give me a chance and let me prove myself."
Gu Mingyuan's brows were still furrowed, but he slowly loosened his hand, staring at Mu Le with a serious and worried look, and whispered, "Then you... be careful."
Mu Le nodded: "Okay, I'll just cut some potatoes."
She walked over to the chopping board and picked up the knife.
Gu Mingyuan stood behind her, watching her movements closely.
Kong Hean, who was standing next to him, suddenly felt like he was a little redundant.
He never expected that the person who finally compromised would be Gu Mingyuan. This man was notoriously difficult to deal with in the past, and his subordinates had to follow his wishes in everything and dared not disobey him in the slightest.
Today was an eye-opener.
When Mu Le was cutting vegetables, she could feel a burning gaze behind her. She smiled, picked up the potato, and cut it with skillful movements.
She might not be able to handle some complicated ingredients and dishes, but she used to cook things like potatoes quite often.
After all, when I first started living on my own, I didn’t understand many things and my income was not high.
It was potatoes, sweet potatoes and cabbage, these cheap and delicious things that kept her company for a long time.
Mu Le skillfully helped cut the potatoes and soaked them in a bowl of water prepared by Kong Hean. Then he turned around and asked him, "Anything else?"
Kong Hean was stunned for a few seconds before realizing that Mu Le was asking him.
He scratched his hair, thought for a moment and said, "No more, you guys go out and have a rest, I'm going to make a secret sauce next."
Mu Le nodded obediently: "Okay!"
She also knew that the process of making potato pancakes was not complicated, and that everyone was the same at the beginning when making mashed potatoes. The subsequent steps depended on what kind of pancake Kong Hean was going to make.
In fact, she had to help here, firstly because she hadn't cooked for a long time and she felt a little itchy, and secondly, she wanted to reassure Gu Mingyuan that she was not here to make trouble because she knew nothing, so she had to cut it for him to see.
But Gu Mingyuan still frowned.
They returned to the living room of Kong Hean's house.
Kong Yu'an was resting in his room. Gu Mingyuan and Mu Le were the only two people in the huge living room.
Because he was in someone else's home, Mu Le didn't dare to be too unruly and always sat properly on the sofa.
Gu Mingyuan didn't care much. He and Mu Le sat very close to each other. He opened the light computer with his right hand, and his left hand naturally slid down and held her hand.
Mu Le leaned on his arm, looked up and asked him: "Are you done with your work? Did you run into any trouble..."
Gu Mingyuan turned off the screen and said, "Well, it's not a big deal. The new members of the team don't know the rules, so they need to be taught a lot of things."
"Teaching by hand!" Mu Le was jealous. She raised the hand that Gu Mingyuan was holding and asked sourly, "Is it like this, teaching by hand?"
Gu Mingyuan pursed his lips and rubbed her head with his other hand, "What are you thinking about. The team is full of men."
Mu Le pursed his lips: "I would be jealous of men too."
The little girl looked soft, but had a strong possessiveness.
"No hand-holding." Gu Mingyuan came close to her and kissed her face, "They don't dare to get close to me."
Mu Le also touched his face: "You didn't lie to me, did you?"
Gu Mingyuan: “No.”
The two of them were too close, their breath blended together, Mu Le couldn't help licking his lips and said coquettishly: "Then kiss me, I want to taste whether I am lying."
Gu Mingyuan pursed his lips and his Adam's apple rolled up and down.
He lowered his head, pressed his lips against Mu Le's, and kissed her slowly and gently.
Mu Le bit him lightly.
She felt Gu Mingyuan's breathing became disordered for a moment, and she didn't know when the arms around her waist tightened.
The kiss didn't last long, just a superficial touch.
Gu Mingyuan's forehead was against hers, one hand was around her waist, the other hand was on the back of the sofa, his broad chest was almost pressed against hers.
He panted twice, his eyes were deep and fiery, and his voice was very light: "Stop making trouble."
"Hehe." Mu Le lowered his head and smiled foolishly on his chest.
She had not forgotten that this was at Kong Hean's house, so she restrained herself a lot.
Otherwise, how could Gu Mingyuan's light words of "stop making trouble" control her
The two people stuck together.
Mu Le quickly put aside what happened in the kitchen.
Kong Hean cooked very quickly, and the steamers of the interstellar era were more efficient, so he soon prepared a table of potato pancakes and vegetable soup.
The four of us had dinner together.
Although Kong Yu'an was still a little afraid of Gu Mingyuan, with Mu Le around, the atmosphere at the table was always very relaxed and pleasant, and there were rarely any awkward moments.
Before leaving, Kong Yu'an told Mu Le that he planned to treat everyone to a meal next week to thank everyone for their concern.
He also told Mu Le to be there.
Mu Le scratched his head and asked him, "Dinner or lunch? Starting next weekend, I may have to attend a cram school in the afternoon."
Kong Yu'an was shocked: "You still need tutoring? With your grades—you still need tutoring!?"
His words sounded a bit misleading. Kong Hean, who didn't know the truth, patted Kong Yuan on the back of the head and taught him a lesson: "How can you talk like that, kid?"
Kong Yu'an covered the back of his head and looked at Kong He'an in surprise: "I, I, I, what's wrong with me?"
Mu Le hugged Gu Mingyuan's arm and laughed out loud.
"No, no... He didn't mean that." Mu Le helped Kong Yu'an explain, "With my grades, I'm still a little short of the college entrance exam. I have to work harder."
In fact, it is more difficult to get into the fourth grade next semester than to take the college entrance examination.
After all, the school's system of skipping grades is not given casually. At least they have to see that she can take the college entrance examination easily before they put her in the graduating class so early.
Kong Yu'an covered her head and cried silently: "I'm too bad. I also want to go to the cram school, can you take me with you?"
Mu Le thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll ask the teacher."
She said goodbye to the two beautiful peacocks and left hand in hand with Gu Mingyuan.
After getting into Gu Mingyuan's car, I heard him ask in a low voice: "When did it happen?"
Mu Le was stunned: "Huh?"
"I need to go to make up for the lessons." Gu Mingyuan said, "When did it happen and who will I go with?"
Mu Le thought for a moment and said, "Let's do it this week... I've been busy lately and I almost forgot about it. Feifei invited me and it was hosted by the goblin teacher."
Gu Mingyuan: “Turn it off.”
Mu Le: “… huh?”
"Cancel this week's one." He said in a deep voice, "You are not allowed to go."
Mu Le didn't expect Gu Mingyuan to say this suddenly. She was a little confused and asked him stupidly: "What, what happened?"
Gu Mingyuan: "You have other things to do."
Mu Le: “…”
So the control freak is now controlling her schedule
She wasn't angry, she just found it a little funny, and even thought Gu Mingyuan was a little cute.
Mu Le came close to Gu Mingyuan and reached out to touch him: "Are you going to arrange the rest of my life?"
Gu Mingyuan stopped her hand, his movements and expression seemed a little stiff.
He was not sure whether Mu Le was disgusted or not, so he looked up at Mu Le's face and pulled a smile: "What do you think?"
Mu Le hooked his neck and tilted his head, as if thinking about it seriously: "... It's not impossible?"
Gu Mingyuan's body relaxed.
She was not unhappy and seemed to find it interesting.
He breathed a sigh of relief, turned on the computer, and showed Mu Le the schedule he had made earlier.
On the calendar, next Saturday is clearly marked as a "date day".
Mu Le: “…”
She suddenly understood why celebrities always have an agent or assistant to arrange their schedules.
Because once you get really busy, you don’t even remember when you had something to do.
At this moment, Gu Mingyuan was suddenly equated with the young assistant.
Mu Le couldn't help but laugh out loud.
She hugged Gu Mingyuan's neck and softened her voice to coax him: "I'm sorry, I forgot. I will definitely not go to the make-up class this week."
Gu Mingyuan had a blank expression on his face and remained silent.
Mu Le leaned over and kissed his face: "Don't be angry. It will cause wrinkles."
Gu Mingyuan: “…”
He looked at Mu Le's still childish face, and subconsciously reached out and touched the other side of his face.
Is she... talking about his old... side
