303 Wei Zilin grabbed both of her wrists and pulled her back (second update)
As soon as Xu Moyan said "Okay", Aunt Ge arrived and got out of the elevator first.
Xu Moyan and Wei Zilin returned home. The home was heated, and as soon as they entered the door, they could feel the warm and familiar atmosphere surrounding them.
Xu Moyan took off the scarf and hung it on the shelf next to the door. Then she went to the shoe cabinet and took out two pairs of slippers.
One of the pairs is men's, not the disposable slippers like last time. Bending down in front of Wei Zilin.
Xu Moyan had a bun on her head today. Because she took off her scarf, Wei Zilin lowered his head slightly and saw her fair and slender back neck. A few more strands of broken hair fell down near the roots of the nape of the neck. Between the white neck, there was a slight brown color.
Light and light, just like a few soft brown lines falling on a white canvas.
Wei Zilin looked a little lost in thought, and a certain part of his body began to move. The slender white skin looked so soft and graceful, and his fingertips couldn't help but move, wanting to stroke it gently.
The house was not big, but it was very cozy. Everywhere she was there seemed to be exuding a faint fragrance.
Xu Moyan stood up and looked up, and met Wei Zilin's dark eyes looking at her. Wei Zilin looked calm on the surface and looked at Xu Moyan without looking away.
Xu Moyan blushed with a guilty conscience, "I just bought this, it's new, no one has ever worn it."
After Wei Zilin and Shen Zongyi came home for dinner, Xu Moyan went to the supermarket one time and happened to see men's slippers. Somehow, he put them in the shopping cart by accident.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be... really useful one day.
Wei Zilin smiled slightly. Somehow, Xu Moyan always felt that his eyes seemed to be filled with understanding, and his heart felt even more empty.
Wei Zilin changed into slippers, the size was just right. Unlike the last time he wore disposable slippers, this time it actually felt warm.
Xu Moyan was confused and quickly looked away. Somewhat panicked, he picked up the bag that had been placed on the chair and said, "I'm going to pack it up first, and I'll be out to cook soon."
"Don't worry." Wei Zilin said with a smile. In the quiet room, his voice as warm as a hot spring seemed particularly sultry and pleasant. "I have been here before and I will take care of myself. You don't have to worry."
After saying that, he walked to the living room comfortably, turned on the TV, sat on the sofa with the remote control and changed the channel. It was really casual and comfortable, and he didn't regard himself as an outsider.
It feels so good to have him sitting so comfortably in the living room.
Xu Moyan looked at this warm scene again with some reluctance, then turned and returned to the bedroom.
She is currently wearing a white sweater, which is not suitable for cooking. Oil fumes and condiments can easily splash on the clothes.
She found some clothes at home and put them on, then quickly tied her hair back up, and then went to the kitchen to tie on her apron. The rice has been washed in the morning. I usually eat with Zheng Yuntong, so I already have experience in controlling the portion.
Because he became Wei Zilin, he only slightly increased the original portion and steamed it in a rice cooker.
Then I rummaged through the refrigerator and found some ingredients. The vegetables at home were very simple, so I prepared a sesame-sauce lettuce, processed the cabbage, and made a boiled cabbage, using oil to enhance the flavor. The preparation process is simple and only takes a few minutes, but the taste is light and refreshing.
After handling these two vegetables, the kitchen door suddenly opened and Wei Zilin walked in.
While rolling up his shirt sleeves gracefully, he asked, "I'm here to help. If there's anything I can do, just ask."
Xu Moyan was taking out the minced meat and ribs from the refrigerator. Hearing this, he froze nervously before saying, "No, actually they are all easy to prepare. The vegetables have already been cooked. There is no need to prepare anything for the remaining meat. It can be seasoned and made directly.”
She smiled and added: "You go watch TV."
"There aren't any good programs at this time." Wei Zilin explained, "I'm sitting outside alone, and I feel bad that you are busy here."
"It's nothing, it's really simple." Xu Moyan said, the kitchen is not big, and if Wei Zilin moves here, there won't be much room for movement. If he moves even a little bit, he will have to touch him, which is very uncomfortable.
Wei Zilin glanced at it, then picked up two plates of vegetables that had been prepared, "Okay, but if you have something to do, you must speak up, don't be polite to me."
Xu Moyan nodded quickly, just wanting to persuade Wei Zilin to leave first.
With him standing here, she couldn't concentrate on cooking.
After finally waiting for him to leave, Xu Moyan put the minced meat and ribs in the microwave to defrost, and at the same time fried six palm-sized egg pancakes.
At this time, Wei Zilin unexpectedly appeared at the door again and said, "Just open the kitchen door. I don't feel comfortable shutting you in alone."
Xu Moyan opened her mouth and then said weakly: "The cooking and range hood are very loud, it will be very noisy."
"It doesn't matter, it would be better to have some noise at home." Wei Zilin said, leaning against the door, "I just ate a piece of lettuce and cabbage."
Xu Moyan couldn't help but laugh, "Are you hungry? You'll be fine soon."
"It's not bad, it just tastes very fragrant, and I can't help but want to eat your cooking. It really tastes very different from what I usually eat, and it's much more delicious."
Xu Moyan was very embarrassed, "As you said, I seem to have become a chef."
She mixed the thawed meat filling with mushrooms and corn kernels, and wanted to chase Wei Zilin away, "There is a lot of oil smoke here, you'd better go out."
"I'm bored alone and you don't let me help. Then I'll chat with you here. Don't refuse me." Wei Zilin said, with a hint of pity in his pleasant voice.
Xu Moyan couldn't resist at all and was defeated.
Wei Zilin, who had won the round, leaned against the door frame with satisfaction, his eyes filled with Xu Moyan's busy figure. It feels like the two of them are really like a couple now, and they kind of want to take Xu Moyan back to their home, let her be busy in their kitchen, and come back from get off work together every day.
She was preparing dinner in the kitchen and he was watching and talking to her, how nice it felt.
Xu Moyan never ignored Wei Zilin's gaze, so she could only bite the bullet and try to ignore his gaze. Even so, the movements of her hands were much slower and not as fluent as before.
She put the fillings into the egg pancakes and made six egg dumplings, then placed them in a pot and steamed the egg dumplings until cooked.
Wei Zilin kept telling her what to do, and he didn't know when he calmed down and watched her movements intently.
The movements are skillful, unhurried and orderly, and everything looks so beautiful. She looked down and busy in the kitchen, not embarrassed at all. She was cooking and tidying up, and the table was always clean and tidy.
In this small space where she is, even the noise of the range hood can be ignored, and everything feels so warm and beautiful.
Xu Moyan gradually concentrated on cooking, fearing that Wei Zilin would be too hungry if he waited too long, so he didn't have so many other thoughts.
Just speed up the action, while the bone broth is heating, take out the thawed ribs, use a fork to pierce the meat back and forth a few times, marinate and add flavor, then put it in a pan and fry over low heat until golden brown and the edges of the meat Slightly burnt, with a light brownish-golden caramel color. Then stir-fry minced garlic, minced ginger, and minced onion in butter, add water, hand-ground black pepper, tomato paste, oil, sugar, and salt to make a thick sauce, and pour it on the ribs.
At this time, the egg dumplings and bone soup are ready, so put the egg dumplings into the bone soup and sprinkle with chives. She remembered that Wei Zilin didn't like coriander very much, so she didn't add it.
After taking out two bowls of rice, he almost bumped into Wei Zilin as soon as he turned around.
I don’t know when he walked in. He didn’t even make a sound. It was completely unexpected.
Xu Moyan was startled, and she was suddenly so close to him. If it weren't for the two bowls of rice in front of her, she would have crashed into his arms.
He subconsciously took a step back, but because he was too anxious, he failed to stand firm and fell backwards.
In fact, there are cabinets, microwaves and ovens in the back.
Even if she fell backwards, it would only be a small half step away. With these follow-ups, she would not be hurt. At most, it would be a bump, which would not be serious.
But Wei Zilin quickly reached out, grabbed both of her wrists, and pulled her back. Her wrists were clean and she wore no jewelry. His palm was still holding her wrist without moving, and the scalding temperature was close to her wrist, as if it was scalded directly into the bones.
Wei Zilin couldn't hold it back any longer, so he squeezed again with a little more force and immediately let go.
Xu Moyan, who moved so quickly, didn't even have time to tell whether it was his illusion just now.
Wei Zilin didn't give her time to think. He had already taken the two bowls of rice from her hand, glanced at the dishes on the table, and said, "Leave the soup alone. I'll serve it later."
