I won’t take on so much responsibility!
Ye Youyou immediately felt that she had nothing to say. She looked at him helplessly and walked up to him, snatched the things in his hand, and said, "Go boil some water."
Li Jinnan felt deeply that he was being disliked. He touched his nose and responded, "Yeah."
After searching for a while, Li Jinnan finally took out a kettle, put water in the water dispenser, and then put it on the stove to boil.
Ye Youyou was concentrating on sorting out the ingredients. She turned around and saw Li Jinnan using a pot. Her expression became a little complicated. She looked at Li Jinnan and said, "Boss Li, are you thirsty?"
"Not thirsty."
"Then why are you boiling water?"
Li Jinnan frowned, looked at her with some confusion, and said, "Didn't you ask me to burn it?"
Ye Youyou: “…”
With nothing to say, Ye Youyou turned around silently and poured the half-boiled water into a clean pot.
Li Jinnan watched her busying around, feeling a little guilty, and asked, "Do you need my help?"
Ye Youyou glanced at him and sighed helplessly: "Please help me get the dishes and chopsticks. They are in the disinfection cabinet."
"Oh..." Li Jinnan took two pairs of chopsticks and two bowls and placed them on the table that Ye Youyou had just wiped. Then he came in to help serve the noodles.
The noodles were a little hot when they were just cooked. Li Jinnan touched the handle of the pot and was scalded unexpectedly. He immediately withdrew his hand.
Ye Youyou was startled and hurried forward, saying, "Are you okay?" As she spoke, she had already pried open Li Jinnan's hand. When she saw the mark on his hand caused by the burn from the metal handle, her brows frowned even deeper.
He pulled Li Jinnan to the side of the sink, turned on the faucet and started flushing.
"Why are you so careless? How could you touch the pot that was just used to cook? You are not a child anymore. You don't have any common sense." Ye Youyou muttered while carefully squeezing a little detergent on it and rubbing it.
The movements are light and gentle.
There was a stinging burning pain, but to Li Jinnan, this feeling was nothing.
But when Ye Youyou's small and soft hand was holding my hand, my mood inexplicably became better.
The corners of her lips slightly raised, not much, Li Jinnan looked at her dark head with his dark eyes. The faint fragrance of her hair wafted over, making him feel a subtle change in his mood.
It was the first time he was so close to a woman. Even when he was teaching Su Qianci martial arts, he had never been so close to her.
This feels... not bad.
Ye Youyou lowered her head to rinse Li Jinnan with water. She looked up inadvertently and saw Li Jinnan staring at her on the black reflective wall.
At the sudden sight, Ye Youyou's heart tightened, her hands stiffened, and then she let him go, saying: "Just wash up, aren't you hungry? Eat some noodles first, and you'll be fine after applying some medicine." As she spoke, she turned around, her steps quick.
Li Jinnan looked at his hands and said, "There are still bubbles. Aren't there any bubbles on your hands?"
Ye Youyou glanced at her hands, and saw white foam on them.
I was walking so fast just now that I didn't notice this problem at all.
She seemed to be... overreacting.
Ye Youyou's cheeks felt inexplicably hot, and she withdrew her hand in embarrassment, walked faster, and said quickly: "No!"
Li Jinnan looked at her fleeing back, chuckled, and then slowly washed his hands.
