Lin Bao glared at him hatefully, but his mind slowly came to his senses -
Wait, what he said just now made her feel like they were familiar with each other before.
When they regained consciousness, Lian Che had already gone to the kitchen with her and lit candles. Only then did they see the ingredients in the kitchen. Because the inn cleaned the ingredients every night, there was nothing else except some noodles and some ingredients. But these ingredients are more than enough to make a few bowls of Yangchun noodles.
Lian Che handed Yan'er to Lin Bao, rolled up his sleeves and started working.
Under the dim light, looking at his busy figure, Lin Bao felt an inexplicable sense of contentment. In fact, such men were rare in the world. At least as far as she knew, Lin Wanchen had never cooked once.
Watching him trying to light the fire and looking at the pot, Lin Bao finally couldn't sit still, so he put Yan'er on a small stool aside and sat down, then walked forward, picked up the dry firewood beside him, and said: " Let me do it-"
Lian Che was a little stunned, but as expected, he smiled and raised his arm to wipe his sweat, then turned around and went back to work.
Lin Bao squatted on the ground to control the heat, glancing at Yan'er from time to time, and looking up at Lian Che from time to time.
—Tsk, tsk, tsk, I have to say, the way this man cooks is so stylish!
After the noodles were put into the pot, Lian Che covered the pot, squatted next to Lin Bao, glanced at the firewood inside, looked at her funny, and said, "Bao'er, do you know what you look like like this?"
Hearing this, Lin Bao decisively reached out and touched his face, looked at him and wondered, "What's on my face? Is it dirty?"
Seeing that he misunderstood what he meant, Lian Che pulled her hand down and wiped the sweat from her forehead with his sleeve. Looking at Yan'er sitting on the small stool playing with the red rope, he said with contentment: "You look so similar like this." It feels like he is busy for me alone, which makes me feel very warm.”
- Even if she can't remember him in this life, it doesn't matter. The worst thing he can do is try again and get into her heart, as long as she can fall in love with him.
Now he finally understood what his father said to him before he died - "Che'er, no one in this world can accompany you to the end, but that is not important. What is important is that she is willing to accompany you to the end."
Now that I think about it carefully, this sentence is quite philosophical, at least that's what he thinks.
After hearing what he said, Lin Bao's old face turned red. He lowered his eyes and looked at the dirty ground. After hesitating for a long time, he finally said, "Lian Che, did we... really know each other before?"
"Then you wish we had met before?"
He asked instead of answering, his bright eyes full of her face, and that sense of concentration, as if she was the only one in his world.
Lin Bao pursed her lips. It was undeniable that she hoped from the bottom of her heart that they had known each other before. In this case, she could find Shengsheng and Yan'er's father as soon as possible. Although he was very likely to be the father, but just in case, she She is not sure yet. If she uses that method, it will be embarrassing if she makes a joke.
Seeing her silence, Lian Che leaned slightly and reached out to smooth the long hair around her ears with an extremely gentle movement.
Lin Bao turned his head and looked at his handsome face that suddenly enlarged. He couldn't help being a little shocked, and his breathing became rapid.
Lian Che wanted to stop, but looked at her pink lips, swallowed subconsciously, and involuntarily moved closer to her lips. Seeing that she didn't hide, he boldly reached out and grabbed her lips. He kissed the back of his head gently.
There was a cold but warm touch on her lips, and then Lin Bao felt as if her lips were being pried open. Before she could react, his long tongue penetrated her mouth.
"Plop-"
Lin Bao could hear her own heartbeat at this moment, and just stared at his closed eyes in a daze, forgetting to even breathe for a while.
-Wait, what are they doing
Lin Bao suddenly reacted and was about to reach out and push him away when he saw him let go, opened his eyes, looked at her with a half-smile, and called out: "Bao'er—"
—Bao'er who has gone away from the peat, now is not the time to talk about this at all, okay
She stood up with a "swish", dragged him up, pointed at the boiling pot, and shouted: "Noodles!"
noodle
Only then did Lian Che react. He hurriedly took out a rag and lifted the lid of the pot. He quickly took the noodles out of the pot, added seasonings and mixed them well before placing them on the low table. He put three pairs of chopsticks on them and said : "It's ready to eat."
Lin Bao looked at the delicious Yangchun noodles, swallowed, took a pair of chopsticks and handed them to Yan'er, straightened her collar, and then said: "Blow on it first, wait until it's not hot before eating. Did you know?"
Yan'er nodded, took the chopsticks, raised her eyes to look at Lin Bao, and said, "Mother, you can't eat first either!"
"...Okay, mother and Yan'er will eat together later."
Lin Bao said helplessly, but still couldn't help but glance at Yan'er. Yan'er had been playing with the red rope just now. She probably didn't see her and Lian Che. If she did, she wouldn't know what to do with Yan'er. Explained, it is easy to teach bad things to children!
Just as she was thinking about it, she saw Lian Che bringing two short stools over. She took one of them and sat next to Yan'er.
After a long while, seeing that the noodles were not too hot anymore, Lin Bao used his chopsticks to stir Yan'er again and said, "It's ready to eat. Be careful not to get the sauce on it when you eat it later." The clothes are on."
Yan'er nodded again, picked up the chopsticks and ate the noodles. She watched her daughter eat, and Lin Bao followed suit.
Lian Che, who was not hungry at all, felt a little appetitive when he saw the two of them eating so happily.
It was undeniable that he felt a sense of accomplishment when he saw these two snacks eating the Yangchun noodles he made with relish. He was not exaggerating, but he would be happy to make Yangchun noodles for them both for the rest of their lives.
The noodles were finished quickly. Lin Bao took out a silk handkerchief and wiped Yan'er's mouth. He stood up and was about to clear away the bowls and chopsticks, when Lian Che neatly poured the soup from the bowl into a wooden bucket nearby. Then he folded up the bowls and chopsticks and placed them in a wooden basin aside. He scooped some cold water from the water tank and quickly washed them.
He was so diligent, which made her, a woman, feel a little embarrassed.
Lin Bao walked forward with Yan'er in his arms and said, "You have already made the dough, why don't I wash it?"
"It's okay, a few bowls won't take much effort."
Lian Che said nonchalantly, having washed the dishes in the blink of an eye, stood up and put the dishes back into the cupboard, washed the big pot again, and then gave up.
Glancing at his wet hands, Lin Bao took a brand new brocade handkerchief and handed it to him, saying, "Thank you for being willing to cook food for Yan'er."
"You seem to have forgotten that she is also my daughter."
Lian Che smiled, took the brocade handkerchief and wiped his hands, leaned over and stretched out his arms towards Yan'er, saying, "Daddy, can you take you back to rest?"
Yan'er has not recognized life since she was a child. She reached out for him to pick her up. After listening to his words, she blinked and said, "Are you really your father?"
After saying that, she looked at Lin Bao again, her big eyes full of doubts and surprises, as if she was asking Lin Bao.
Lin Bao helplessly held his forehead and said, "He is an uncle, not a father."
—At least, before she was sure, he was just an uncle, not a father!
Hearing this, Yan'er curled her lips, looked away in disappointment, lay on Lian Che's shoulders, hugged his neck, and whispered: "You said you are daddy, why did mother say you weren't?"
"Because your mother mistakenly recognized your father! Yan'er, look at how similar we are. If I'm not your father, then who is your father? In order to make your mother remember your father early, Yan'er will help her father with her brother. , do you know?”
Lian Che whispered, holding Yan'er and walking out of the kitchen door.
When Yan'er heard this, she looked at Lian Che's serious look, nodded, straightened up, patted her chest, and promised: "I will help daddy!"
Seeing this, Lian Che curled his lips and smiled, clasped the back of her head, kissed her forehead, and said, "Yan'er is so good."
When Yan'er heard this, her little heart was instantly satisfied, and she happily kissed Lian Che's face, then continued to lie on Lian Che's shoulder, waved to Lin Bao who looked puzzled behind her, and said: " Mother, you have to go faster!"
Lin Baoyi walked forward quickly, his eyes full of doubts and wonders, what on earth did the two of them say just now? Did Lian Che scare his daughter away? No, she has to do some ideological work with Yan'er later!
After thinking about it, she walked side by side with Lian Che. Just as she was about to ask her to hug Lian Che, she heard Lian Che say, "If I remember correctly, Yan'er and Shengsheng's birthdays have passed, right?"
Just wondering why he asked this, Lin Bao could only say truthfully: "Well - not yet, I only turned five on New Year's Eve."
- I still remember that when they were both born, it was snowing heavily outside, and she was too weak due to being in a coma for too long, almost dystocia. She finally gave birth to Shengsheng, but she lost her strength, and Nan Jing also died. At that time, she was given a magical medicine, which allowed her to successfully give birth to Yan'er.
However, afterward, because the medicine was too strong, she couldn't bear it and fell into a coma again. As a result, she forgot that person and certain things about that person.
Speaking of that person, Lin Bao can't help but think of the man in white robe, and every time she thinks of that man in white robe, Lin Bao will feel a feeling of heartache and almost suffocation, and even feel a little guilty. That kind of feeling makes her She felt very baffled, but if she thought about it carefully, it would cause excessive pain in her head and dizziness. Later, as time went by, she rarely thought about it.
Lian Che pursed his lips and smiled after listening to her words. If he hasn't already, let him spend their fifth birthdays happily for these two children. After all, he has lost the fifth birthday to accompany them. Years have passed, so this birthday should be regarded as making up for the fact that he has not been with them in the past five years.
After thinking about it, he looked at Yan'er lying on top of him, "What birthday gift does Yan'er want?"
