Chapter 146 What a pity
Chapter 146 What a pity
"We'll leave the day after tomorrow and I'll be back soon." Lin Qingxuan originally wanted Gu Xiqing to go with him, but when he thought of the chaotic situation on the island, he felt it would be safer in the country.
"Ah."
Gu Xiqing watched him finish the pasta on his plate in just a few chopsticks while talking, then turned to look at the kitchen. In addition to some fresh ingredients, there were also dishes made by the chef yesterday in the refrigerator.
It's still early for lunch, so I can cook something else.
Otherwise I will be very hungry by noon.
"I see there are still some vegetables in the kitchen..."
Lin Qingxuan followed her gaze and looked towards the refrigerator in the kitchen. "Wait a moment."
I stood up and rolled up my sleeves. Half an hour later, I served the hot tomato stewed pork ribs on the table.
During this time, Gu Xiqing watched from the side, watching him cut and wash vegetables, watching him busy in an orderly manner, and the calm surface of the lake in her heart gradually began to be disturbed.
If only... they were just so plain and beautiful from the beginning.
We went to get off work and came home together, stayed in bed together on weekend mornings, and took a break from our busy schedules together...
Pity.
"Don't you like it?" Lin Qingxuan placed a small bowl of white rice in front of her. Seeing her lowered eyes, he asked softly, "What do you like? I'll make it next time."
"I don't have a fixed favorite when it comes to food." Gu Xiqing had a bitter taste on her lips, she smiled and shook her head.
Lin Qingxuan sat across from her and put a piece of pork ribs into her bowl. "Try it?"
The ribs were stewed by the chef last night. When you take a bite, you can find that the meat is tender and juicy. It is stewed just right and falls off the bones as soon as you put it in your mouth.
In addition, the sweet and sour taste of tomatoes has already penetrated into every texture, dissolving the greasiness of the ribs, leaving only the wonderful blend of mellow meat aroma and fresh fruity aroma.
“Very good, just the right amount of sweet and sour.”
Lin Qingxuan sat quietly opposite and watched Gu Xiqing eat, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, like a warm spring breeze, gently blowing through people's hearts.
Did he miss so many happy moments before?
Just looking at her lowering her head and eating seriously, the happiness in my heart slowly filled my entire chest and even gently enveloped my whole body.
His eyes were so deep and intense that Gu Xiqing had to put down her chopsticks and looked up at him. "What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"
"The corner of her mouth." Lin Qingxuan took out a tissue and reached out to wipe the tomato stain from the corner of her mouth while speaking.
Gu Xiqing looked at his dark eyes with endless tenderness and affection, and her heart was confused for a moment.
She hurriedly slapped his hand away and wiped her mouth with a piece of paper, "Thank you... I'm done eating, I'll go clean up first."
After saying that, he left as if running away.
Returning to the bedroom, closing the door, and leaning against it, Gu Xiqing touched her suddenly wildly beating heart and lowered her head with a bitter smile.
As she laughed, tears fell from her eyes one by one like little pearls that had broken off the string, and hit the ground with a plop.
The sea of suffering is boundless, and turning back is the shore, but how can one get out of the sea of suffering so easily? He waved his hand, and her heart beat for him involuntarily.
Ten years, more than 3,600 days and nights of heart-throb for him...
During the more than 87,000 hours she spent around him, he was the only one in her gloomy world. Whenever she saw him, she would be filled with strength. No matter how bad or difficult the situation was, as long as she thought of him, she could grit her teeth and get through it.
Even though I know that he hates my behavior of always appearing in front of him at inappropriate times and disturbing him, I will still revolve around him heartlessly like a moth to a flame.
At that time... she really needed a pillar to keep her alive, and he just happened to fall within her reach, so she could pick him up and support her hope of living.
Gu Xiqing doesn't blame her past self, but... it's really difficult to completely get rid of this past.
