Chapter 2561 - 2576: Eating Together, Drinking Together, and More... (Part 1)

Beiming Han suddenly stood up and tightly held her in his arms...

...

Gu Qingxin sat on the toilet in the bathroom, her mind in chaos; she had even lost the ability to think.

She raised her hand to cover her face. What happened to her? Why could he still easily dictate her emotions?

No, it shouldn’t be like this?

She must stay calm!

...

In the kitchen.

Beiming Han was washing fresh shrimp in the basin when his thoughts wandered, and his hand was pricked painfully. He raised it to see a bright red bead of blood on his fingertip.

He put his injured finger under the faucet to rinse it, unable to resist looking back towards the bathroom direction; Xin’er had already been inside for a long time.

He felt a little uneasy, grabbed a towel to dry his hand, and wanted to search for Gu Qingxin.

When he reached the living room, the bathroom door opened, and Gu Qingxin came out.

Their eyes accidentally met; Gu Qingxin immediately looked away to somewhere else.

"Xin’er, can you help me get a band-aid? It’s still in the usual place." Beiming Han gazed at her tenderly.

"I’m tired. I’m going to rest first. If there’s nothing important, don’t bother me."

Gu Qingxin walked toward the bedroom without looking back, but regretted as soon as she entered. Why did she come to the bedroom?

However, she had already spoken, and she had come in, so she couldn’t go out now. She sat down at the sofa in the room.

Beiming Han didn’t get angry because Gu Qingxin ignored his request. His face maintained a faint smile and he turned around, grabbed a band-aid himself, and put it on his finger.

Returning to the kitchen, he continued busying himself, thinking about Xin’er tasting his cooking today, his smile deepening.

Beiming Han couldn’t cook sophisticated dishes; he could only make simple ones. This made him regret spending five years in vain. If he had learned culinary skills during that time, he might have been a five-star chef by now.

He put half of the shrimp in the pot to steam, leaving the other half to stir fry with ketchup.

There were also a few plump crabs, which he steamed along with the shrimp.

After finishing, Beiming Han placed the rice in the pot and started washing and chopping vegetables.

...

The door of the bedroom was knocked a few times. Beiming Han walked in; Gu Qingxin was sitting on the sofa. He walked in front of her and squatted down, his face lit with a smile, "Xin’er, it’s time to eat."

"I said I’m not hungry." Gu Qingxin responded coldly.

Beiming Han felt a bit sad inside; she really hated him.

"Xin’er, I believe you’re someone who keeps promises. You promised to spend a day with me, so you shouldn’t break your word."

"I did promise to spend a day with you, but you didn’t specify how."

"Spend... doesn’t it mean sharing meals and drinks and..."

"Fine, just like that!" Gu Qingxin quickly stood up and headed out.

Beiming Han, "..."

He also stood up and followed behind her, laughing joyfully.

Gu Qingxin’s delicate eyebrows were furrowed tightly; this bastard, what’s so funny?

Gu Qingxin found a place to sit randomly as soon as she entered the living room.

Beiming Han had made quite a few dishes, several types of seafood, a few stir-fries, and a steamed fish.

"I’ll serve the rice." Beiming Han went to the kitchen to prepare a bowl of rice for Gu Qingxin.

But when he opened the pot, he was dumbfounded. Why wasn’t the rice cooked? It was just as he had put it in, still in the same state.
