Jiang Yao laid in bed for a while before Lu Xingzhi entered through the door. It was probably a spring breeze that night, so he looked handsome when he walked into the room.
âAre you awake?â Lu Xingzhi reasoned that Jiang Yao should be awake by then and went upstairs to check. He laughed out loud and walked over when he noticed she had glanced at him, turned her back on him, and buried her head in the quilt.
âWe are now a married couple. Why are you still so reserved?â Lu Xingzhi taunted Jiang Yao and patted her head on the blanket. âAfter you have washed up, go downstairs and eat some breakfast.â
When he noticed Jiang Yao did not move, he stretched out to pull the cover. Then, Jiang Yao rose to her feet. Her voice was a little hoarse since she had been bored for a long time. âDo we have a guest? I thought I heard Xiaoxiaoâs voice when you came in.â
âIt is my second uncle, as well as Xiaoxiao. Second Uncle brought an imported oven. Mom is thinking about how to use it,â Lu Xingzhi explained.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âAn oven!â
Jiang Yao felt energized right away. âWe can bake cakes and biscuits!â
Lu Xingzhi could tell by Jiang Yaoâs appearance what she was thinking. âDo you have any cooking skills? Or do you only know how to eat and not cook?â
âI can do it!â
Jiang Yao dashed into the bathroom to wash her hands and feet before swiftly changing into her clothing. While he waited on the side, Lu Xingzhi heard her say, âWhen I was in the dorms, I learned how to cook from Xue Hui and ate the cookies she baked. They are delicious! Did Second Uncle bring things that we need for baking?â
âA large box. There seems to be flour, butter, and other things. Go down and look at them.â Lu Xingzhiâs voice was muffled, yet he smiled. She seemed interested in an oven for someone who did not know how to cook. It was difficult for Lu Xingzhi to imagine what kind of cake and cookies Jiang Yao might make.
He simply did not have the heart to hurt Jiang Yao when he saw her pleased and excited expression.
Even though she was at home, Jiang Yao left the room in a turtleneck sweater and a scarf. It was all thanks to Lu Xingzhi. He spent the entire night as a wolf the previous night.
Mrs. Lu and Lu Yuqing were in the living room; they were learning how to use the oven.
Mrs. Lu switched some of her focus to Jiang Yao when she noticed Jiang Yao and Lu Xingzhi were downstairs. âBreakfast is in the kitchen. Go get some food. Do not eat too much, or you will not be able to finish your lunch.â
âAll right,â Jiang Yao said as she went to Mrs. Lu and Lu Yuqing. Lu Xingzhi kissed her on the cheek and proceeded to the kitchen to get her breakfast.
âSister-in-law!â
Lu Xiaoxiao grabbed Jiang Yaoâs scarf as soon as she saw her. âAre you cold at home?â
âDonât talk nonsense!â
Jiang Yao shielded her scarf nervously and concealed half of her head behind it. Her hair was still untidy.
âIt is bright pink. You know that Big Brother had bought it just by looking at it.â Lu Xiaoxiao made a joke. âSister-in-law, do you know how to bake a cake?â she inquired, pointing to the oven on the ground.
âShe probably eats like you and has no idea how to create a cake,â Lu Yuqing replied, smiling. Her eyes traveled around Jiang Yaoâs scarf-wrapped neck, and when Lu Xiaoxiao tugged on Jiang Yaoâs scarf, she spotted a small red circle that resembled a hickey.
No one heard what Lu Xingzhi and his wife did the previous night because every room in the Lu family was well-insulated. Lu Yuqing, who lived in the adjacent room, was completely unaware.
Lu Yuqing, however, did not tease Jiang Yao because there were other people nearby. Those minor disagreements between husband and wife were entirely typical. It also proved that the coupleâs relationship was perfect.
