novelSuccessors Story Gentle and Considerate
| ← Ch.1698 | Ch.1700 → |
Early morning.
The sunlight shone through the not-so-thick curtain into the room, illuminating it with a golden light.
Zhuang Momo blinked her eyes and instantly woke up. When she opened her eyes, she saw an enlarged handsome face in front of her, which frightened her so much that she instinctively took a few steps back.
This movement made her cry out in pain, "Hiss??"
It was so painful!
As if she hadn't participated in any training for a long time, she suddenly got into a fight with someone last night. It was as if every muscle in her body was crying to her about the bad things she had done.
"He woke up."
Zhan Limo was still the same Zhan Limo, but Zhuang Momo kept feeling that he was different. Her appearance seemed to have become more mature, and even her voice had become more sexy than before.
"It's still early, sleep a little longer."
Not only that, it was much gentler as well. When he spoke to her, he had a gentle smile on his face.
Zhuang Momo was stupefied for a moment. Not knowing if sshe was dreaming, he reached out and pinched Zhan Limo with all his might. It wouldn't hurt, could it really be that she was dreaming?
"You're pinching me, so of course you won't hurt."
Even though she had pinched him, he was still smiling, smiling so warmly. Zhuang Momo had never seen this face of Zhan Limo's before.
In the past, when she pinched him, he would not retaliate, but he would still say something to anger her.
It couldn't be that after such a night, even his temper had changed.
"What is it? You still don't believe what happened last night? Do you need me to do something to help you recall your memories? " Zhan Limo leaned in close to her, and the warm breath caressed her face, causing her to blush and palpitate yet again.
"Go away!" The courage she had last night had disappeared. Zhuang Momo hid into the blanket like a turtle who was cowering in its shell. Zhan Limo couldn't help but want to tease her.
But he didn't have the heart to do so.
"Silly girl!"
"I??"
He got up and said, "I'll go buy breakfast. You should rest for a while."
He was simply buying breakfast and leaving her alone to relax.
Zhuang Momo's personality was a little traditional. She must have expended a lot of courage to take that step last night, so he, who had already tasted the sweetness, should not force her again.
Watching his back disappearing from the room, Zhuang Momo was truly relieved, but strangely, she was also a little disappointed. She actually quite liked his warm embrace.
It was as if as long as he was here, she would not be afraid of any dangers outside.
However, she also understood that Zhan Limo didn't want to embarrass her, so he found an excuse to go out.
No matter how unwell her body was, she had to get up and continue working, so she could not leave the burden on Zhan Limo alone.
She got off the bed. Her body was still feeling unwell. When her feet hit the floor, her legs were so weak that she almost lost her balance. Luckily, she managed to hold on to the wall in time and did not tumble down.
Zhuang Momo concluded that it was not as tiring as last night to train with the devils in the army.
Outside the house, the streets were crowded with people. All the shops were open for business, and some hawkers were shouting with all their might, afraid that they would miss any potential customers.
Zhan Limo took a look at the door of the neighboring bun house: "Boss, can I borrow your kitchen?"
While the Lady Boss was busy passing the steamed buns, she asked, "Is your daughter-in-law sick?"
The Lady Boss's eyes were quite sharp. Normally, she would see the couple going in and out in pairs, but today, she didn't see the other one. This one was even asking her to borrow the kitchen. She guessed that the other one must be sick.
After all, there were a few girls who could handle such a dirty and tiring job every day. This kid's little daughter-in-law hadn't cried out that she was tired these past two days. It was already very impressive.
Zhan Limo reacted quickly: "My wife isn't feeling well, I want to go to the market to buy some food for her to cook something hot to eat. Perhaps this disease will recover quickly."
The Lady Boss originally wasn't a warm-hearted person, but when she saw this couple, it was as if she saw herself in the past. Back then, she had gone out with her husband to find a job, but at that time, she didn't have any money by her side.
At this moment, his heart ached and he readily agreed, "It's not easy for the couple to find work after their marriage. You go and buy it. I'll give you a pot in a bit."
"Lady Boss, not only are you beautiful, you're also kind. I'll thank you first." In terms of praising people, Zhan Limo had learnt it from a young age. With a single mouth, he could make the Lady Boss praise him to the point that her mouth couldn't even close her mouth.
Zhan Limo had almost never gone to the kitchen before, but he had eaten a lot of good things and knew what was good, but the bad thing was that he couldn't buy many things from the commoner district. In the end, he could only buy things that everyone could eat.
He bought a kilogram of ribs, bought two mountain medicines, and pla ed to boil a pot of soup to nourish Zhuang Momo's body. After all, he had gone a bit overboard last night, and did not pay much attention to the severity of the medicinal herbs.
After tormenting himself for nearly two hours, Zhan Limo finally finished cooking the broth and savored the taste. He felt that it was not bad and put the broth into the newly bought thermal container.
After thanking the Lady Boss, he brought the soup back to his room. When he entered, he saw that Zhuang Momo was already working, "Didn't I tell you to sleep longer, who told you to work?"
"We don't have much time left, if we don't find the people now, we won't have a chance." Zhuang Momo seemed to have forgotten what happened last night, and was focused on listening in on the other party's situation.
Zhan Limo placed the soup in front of her."I already have a good idea."
Zhuang Momo then raised her head and looked at him: "What good idea?"
Zhan Limo: "Drink the soup first, I'll tell you while I drink it."
"Go ahead." They did not even have a bowl of chopsticks in their room, and Zhan Limo only took out a warm pail to bring back the soup, with a spoon in it, "This soup is so fragrant, where did you buy it from? "Why can't I remember that there is such a delicious soup in the vicinity?"
Zhan Limo: "The lady boss next door saw that I'm handsome and she specially opened this little wok for me."
Zhuang Momo: "Zhan Limo, you wouldn't sell your perverted appearance just for a bowl of soup, right?"
Zhan Limo: "Is there a need for me to be so cheap?"
Zhuang Momo: "Otherwise?"
Zhan Limo: "I wanted you to drink some soup to make up for it, so I specifically asked the owner of the neighboring kitchen to lend it to me."
"I knew it." She knew that the origin of this bowl of soup was definitely not simple, so she decided to trick him. She handed the spoon to him, "Drink first."
"I've already drunk."
"If you don't drink it, then neither will I."
"Zhuang Momo, if you want to drink my saliva, just say it, I am willing to give it to you, there is no need to beat around the bush like that."
"Don't use that to scare me. I won't take your trick, so if I let you drink it obediently, then I won't drink it either." He had already been assured that everyone would be handed over to him. Could it be that he was still unable to clearly understand what was on his mind?
In these two days, she wasn't the only one who was tired. He was even more tired than her. The one who needed to make up for this was him.
When he returned to Jiangbei, she would definitely ask her mother to cook some nourishing soup for him so that he could recover from the hardships he had suffered these days.
