Chapter 6 Charming Little Milk Candy is Actually Green Tea Flavored (6)
The lights were on, Pei’s house’s dining room was brightly lit, and hot steaming dishes were being served on the table one by one.
“That stinky boy hasn’t come back yet? I don’t know what I’ll do!” Mother Pei brought the fried conch on the table towards her and looked at Yin Han, who was already seated, “Han Han, don’t worry, Auntie will definitely help you scold him.”
“It’s okay, Aunt Pei doesn’t have to do this,” Yin Han shook her head, a little discouraged, “He just wants to ignore me. There’s really not much you can say.”
“…” Mother Pei gave her a bowl of morel chicken soup, and the fresh aroma rushed to Yin Han’s face. “Hanhan, come and drink the soup. Treat this as your own home, so don’t be so polite.”
“Thank you, Aunt Pei.” Yin Han reluctantly smiled and looked at the door, “Jingshuo should be back tonight, right?”
“I’ll call him right now to urge him.” Mother Pei waved her hand, looking helpless, “Your Uncle Pei can’t come back due to a company meeting, and now this kid’s not here. The two of us can’t finish all these dishes.”
“Yeah.” Yin Han looked at the dishes on the table, and she cooked a few dishes herself.
Just as the phone was dialed, the doorbell rang.
Yin Han immediately stood up from her seat and ran to the door quickly: “Auntie, Jingshuo should be back, I’ll open the door.”
Mother Pei nodded and smiled; it seemed like this child was in a hurry.
Yin Han opened the door and saw a tall boy in front of her holding a large box of beef tendon and veal louver wrapped in ice, and couldn’t help exclaiming: “Pei Jingshuo, why did you buy so many…”
“Hello!” Behind the boy, a head that Yin Han didn’t want to see the most came out.
Yin Han’s smile froze directly in front of Jingshuo’s face.
Bi Ming wore a fluffy and cute ball head with a pear-eddy hat, and to match the cuteness, there was baby fat on her cheeks. She waved to Yin Han: “Ah, it’s classmate Yin Han.”
“She is just a neighbor.” Pei Jingshuo glanced down at Bi Ming. The other party smiled, but he couldn’t see her thoughts. “She has lived next door for many years, and her parents are familiar with my family.”
At this time, Pei’s mother also followed, and seeing Pei Jingshuo carrying a large box of ingredients, she couldn’t help and exclaimed: “What is all this?”
“Barbecue ingredients.” Pei Jingshuo said blankly, “She has delivered these to our home.”
Bi Ming walked out from his side “beautifully,” smiling at Pei’s mother: “Hello, auntie, this is our family’s secret beef kebab dish. Because he purchased so much, I had to come and deliver it to the door in person.”
“Oh, that’s it… Then why did he call you, little classmate?” Mother Pei saw that her son’s eyes couldn’t help glancing at this pretty girl.
Her heart suddenly beat like a drum.
“My name is Ruan Xiaoan.” The little girl gathered up her sleeves and moved the other seafood box from behind her. “These are to be refrigerated. They are all packed in fresh-keeping bags and can be stored directly in the refrigerator.”
Mother Pei smiled awkwardly. “Okay, Xiao’an, right? Just leave the things at the door, and I’ll let Jingshuo move them later.”
Bi Ming’s lips curled, and she replied politely: “Well, then I’ll go back first. Classmate Pei, and classmate Yin Han, bye!”
But in the next second, the boy grabbed her arm.
“Where are you going? Did you forget how you got here?” Pei Jingshuo carried a large box of food with one hand effortlessly as his other hand clenched the soft, milky-white wrist. “I’ve brought you here by motorcycle. You didn’t come by a truck. Do you really want to walk back?”
The girl’s fair face suddenly turned red: “I can just take a taxi…”
“Don’t worry, eat before leaving.” Pei Jingshuo’s eyes turned to his mother, “Mom, you go and add another pair of tableware, this is my classmate.”
Mother Pei looked at her son dragging people around domineeringly, raised her brows, and finally said, “Okay, I’ll go. Get it.”
Then she turned back to the kitchen.
Yin Han, who didn’t even get a response from the other side, felt so uncomfortable that her heart was about to burst.
What does Pei Jingshuo mean? Is she just air to be ignored like this?
Why is he getting involved with this green tea bitch again?
She suddenly remembered what happened in her previous life. Ruan Xiao’an’s family seemed very poor and ran a barbecue stall.
Ha, the heroine is like the others, born in poverty and her fate determined. This setting is especially attractive to the eldest young master, who lived in a rich and noble nest all his life, right?
Seeing Yin Han’s almost poisonous gaze, Bi Ming took a breath.
“What’s wrong?” Seeing that her expression was wrong, Pei Jingshuo followed.
Yin Han didn’t have time to hide her expression and was caught straight.
Seeing the face of the Jingshuo sinking instantly, she clenched her fist in embarrassment——
‘Damn, how come I live more and more like a vicious female partner! A villainess!’
“Yin Han, what are you staring at?” Pei Jingshuo couldn’t help sneering when he saw her using her eyeballs to scare people, “Don’t play this game. Save yourself a little face.”
Bi Ming was embarrassed on the surface, but she was actually watching a play unfold happily. –
She understands Yin Han’s psychology very well. She has seen this kind of human being in her two lifetimes. It is better to say that she is obsessed with, rather than in love with, the male protagonist.
She held the protagonist so tightly not because of her love but her unwillingness to let go.
Stealing Pei Jingshuo from Ruan Xiaoan is the most significant proof that she will live a better life this time.
“You know that because of you, I have no face left like this for a long time-” Yin Han’s voice trembled, just like her heart, “You just can’t see me, but you can like a woman like her, right?”
What kind of bullshit is she asking? Pei Jingshuo couldn’t understand this woman’s thoughts.
“I tell you every day that I’m not interested in you! What does it have to do with whether I like her?” The boy rubbed the corners of his brows, and his eyes were stern, “I told you to stop bothering me all day. Do you want me to beat you up? How many punches would it take to change your mind?”
Yin Han gave him a fierce look: “Pei Jingshuo, is your heart made of stone?”
After she finished speaking, she didn’t even take anything; she just knocked on his shoulder and ran out through the door.
The atmosphere calmed for a while.
Bi Ming couldn’t help but complain to the system: “Look, Yin Han didn’t get any smarter after being reborn. I really doubt how she succeeded in the original work.”
[Host, in the original work, Ruan Xiaoan was deeply troubled by her nickname “Green Tea Girl.” This weakened her mental and work habits. Also, Yin Han kept emphasizing how the male protagonist liked her type, causing him to rebel and start dating. When he began doing so, Yin Han stimulated his possessiveness through the second male lead and got what she wanted: “the male protagonist chasing his wife.”]
Bi Ming noticed something strange: “Who is the second male lead?”
[Sports specialist, Ye Yuanxing.]
“Hey, why are you in a daze?” Pei Jingshuo saw that the girl beside him had a dazed expression, and the initially dull mood suddenly relaxed, “Ruan Xiaoan, are you a fool?”
“Cough,” Bi Ming, who was digesting the second male information, smiled embarrassedly at him, “I’m sorry, classmate Pei, I… I’m just shocked.”
“Don’t call me classmate again.” The boy pulled her wrist, walked towards her, and pressed his palm harder, “You don’t want me to call you a good student all day long, right.”
“Then, then… Pei Jingshuo?” Bi Ming snorted softly.
The soft and waxy voice was light and fast, like a feather fluttering.
Pei Jingshuo paused, looked back at her, and finally smiled.
“You didn’t call me this the day you started school…”
Bi Ming’s eyes widened in shock: “You don’t want me to call you Shuo Shuo, do you?” The tall, handsome young man hooked his lips, and his eyebrows sneered: “You can call that if you want.”
The little girl’s face turned red in a flash, and now she didn’t understand whether the other party was teasing her or himself-
“You, you…” She glared at him, looking very imposing, but those clear eyes were like water. With misty eyes, she directly struck into the young man’s heart.
Pei Jingshuo’s body went numb when he was seen by her, and he almost couldn’t help but smile.
Damn, could she be a little self-conscious and stop showing this seductive look?
The old veteran Bi Ming maintained a red face and a speechless expression very dedicatedly.
So that when Mother Pei comes out, she will see a pair of “little couples” who are blushing and don’t dare to look at each other.
Mother Pei sighed and then realized that a figure was missing: “Hey, where is Hanhan?”
“Don’t mention her. That person is mentally sick.” Pei Jingshuo entered the door and directly scolded his mother, “Please don’t invite her in in the future. She’s staring at your son like I’m Tang Sengrou*.”
TL note: Tang Sengrou is the main character of the novel Journey to the West. In the novel, the demons often claim that eating a piece of his flesh will make the eater immortal, which results in numerous battles with demons.
“She prepared these dishes. Do you have any conscience?”Mother Pei argued.
“I won’t eat the ones she made.” Pei Jingshuo snorted.
“Won’t eat?” Mother Pei got angry, “Then give me a drink of the northwest wind.”
Seeing that the mother and son were about to quarrel, Bi Ming weakly said, “Auntie, where is the refrigerator? The ice cubes for seafood and beef are about to melt.”
Mother Pei looked back and saw a well-behaved little girl with timid eyes. If she had such a daughter, she would definitely be holding her in the palms of her hand.
The girl is afraid of ice melting away; how could she be willing to let her carry the goods for delivery?
As she thought of this, Mother Pei’s expression softened a little.
“Just let this kid move it alone, Xiaoan, come and have dinner with me.”
“Okay, thank you, Auntie.” The little girl’s voice was soft, and she came over like a jasmine flower curling gracefully. Mother Pei looked at this, and her heart gradually softened.
“Who is watching the booth at your house? How can they let a child deliver the goods?”
“It was my mother and the clerk who watched it together. Originally, it was supposed to be transported by a tricycle, but classmate Pei… Pei Jingshuo said that he has a motorcycle. I can take the box and sit in the back, and I can deliver it.”
“Oh.” Mother Pei gave her son a meaningful look, “This kid is quite active.”
Pei Jingshuo was so uncomfortable that he turned his head away to carry the ingredients.
“Xiaoan, are you and Jingshuo… in the same class?” Mother Pei continued to test her.
“Well, Pei Jingshuo is my table mate. I was helping my mother at the booth after school today. He just said he wanted to eat barbecue, but he refused to eat it on the spot, so I had to bring the marinated one.” Mother Pei nodded in understanding
“He said he likes to barbecue at home, but this one causes a lot of smoke. Auntie, be careful when you cook it.”
Mother Pei smiled awkwardly.
Since childhood, her son has never eaten grilled food, calling it rubbish, but she couldn’t tell Xiaoan.
