Qin Shun went back after eating the mooncakes. He just came as a neighbor to give a gift sent by his grandmother, and was caught by the hospitable Shen family.
Shen Zhaozhao heard the excited cries of the geese over there at the Qin residence, and her heart felt a little tingling.
After he left, Shen Qiannuo suddenly felt the urge to perform.
“Mom, Dad, Brother, Sister, today is Mid-Autumn Festival. The whole family is here. I learned a few new dishes and I want to cook them for you to try.”
She smiled widely, without any trace of resentment from before, as if her smile was truly sincere.
[Could it be that the heroine is planning to put rat poison in the food and plot against us all? ]
“No need. It’s good that you have this intention. Let Aunt Wang handles this matter. Your hands are for playing the piano.” For the sake of her life, Lin Qing said immediately.
Shen Qiannuo was a little stunned, and a slight warmth swept through her heart, but it was only for a moment, and she lowered her eyes, but still insisted: “Mom, this is what I should do. It’s a rare holiday, so let me show off my skills.”
Shen Zhaozhao understood a little bit. She was planning to keep a low profile and lower her family’s vigilance before achieving great things.
[But it’s okay for her to work, Mu Yichen is still in the kitchen and won’t let her poison. It’s strange, I don’t know what he is doing in the kitchen, he hasn’t come out after fiddling with it for a long time. ]
Hearing this, Lin Qing immediately changed her tone: “Go ahead.”
With that kid around, Shen Qiannuo will definitely not be able to make any waves.
Shen Qiannuo went there happily and took great pains to prepare a delicious midnight snack.
There were grilled squid on the iron plate, fried starch sausage, and stir-fried noodles. They were all steaming hot and the aroma went straight into Shen Zhaozhao’s nose. She ate them with big mouthfuls and nodded repeatedly.
She had indeed learned it. If Shen Qiannuo was kicked out of the Shen family in the future, she would have a skill.
[Also known as: Racing with the Urban Management.][1]moving with the time
Mu Yichen was not interested in these. He watched Shen Zhaozhao eat for a while and stopped her chopsticks: “Don’t eat so much.”
Shen Zhaozhao was stunned and asked in a low voice: “Did she really poison it?”
Mu Yichen laughed: “It’s easy to have indigestion if you eat so much for midnight snack.”
“I’m young and I digest food quickly.”
Mu Yichen had no choice but to give her another skewer of squid. This one was at least healthier than the other two.
In the family, only Shen Zhaozhao was so carefree and enjoyed the meal. Others were not very interested. Moreover, when they thought that this was made by Shen Qiannuo, they felt sick just by looking at it and did not eat many bites.
What should have been a lively midnight snack ended awkwardly.
After cleaning up the dishes, Shen Qiannuo offered to give Lin Qing a massage.
“You’ve worked hard, go to bed early.” Lin Qing was worried that her head and body would be separated after the massage, so she declined immediately.
Shen Qiannuo turned her gaze to Shen Yiyan again, but this kid slipped away faster than a loach and went upstairs long ago.
Mu Yichen looked cold and unapproachable, so she didn’t dare to approach Shen Boyan and had to go back to her room.
Of course Shen Zhaozhao ignored her and went upstairs by herself. She was also tired today. Don’t ask why she was tired after playing all day. The answer is that Xianyu[2]Salted fish was tired whenever she was awake.
She yawned and walked to the door of the room, and someone called her from behind.
“Zhao Zhao.”
It’s Mu Yichen.
Shen Zhaozhao turned her head, her eyelashes trembling with moisture, those were tears forced out by yawning, and she looked at him with her watery eyes.
His Adam’s apple moved slightly and he handed her a box.
Shen Zhaozhao opened it curiously and found that it was a box of mooncakes.
“Made this before midnight snack, happy Mid-Autumn Festival.”
When Mu Yichen said this, his eyes moved away somewhat unnaturally.
He paused and added, “Be careful when you eat it.”
Shen Zhaozhao took it in a daze and saw the other box of mooncakes in his hand: “Is your grandma okay?”
“Well, when I went to see her at noon, we talked for a long time. Grandma is in good condition, thanks to Zhao Zhao.” Mu Yichen softened his eyes.
“Why should you thank me? Thank Mr. Shen instead.” Shen Zhaozhao wanted Mu Yichen to be grateful to Shen Boyan so that he would not kill him in the future.
Shen Zhaozhao felt that the burden on her had become heavier. This damn kindness.
Mu Yichen didn’t respond: “Go to bed quickly, you have to go to school tomorrow morning.”
The last two words were like a bolt from the blue, leaving Shen Zhaozhao unable to think of anything else. She staggered back to her room like a wandering soul, gritting her teeth.
How could there be such a terrible existence like Zaoba[3]Means: Eight in the morning in the world which doesn’t care about the lives of children at all?
Looking at the delicate and small mooncake in her hand, Shen Zhaozhao touched her stomach. No wonder he stopped herself from eating too much midnight snack. It turned out that he had this little trick in mind.
I am quite full, but since they have worked so hard to make it, I still have to eat it while it is hot.
It was just right, I could taste the hero’s cooking skills. This should have been the exclusive privilege of the heroine, but a vicious female supporting role like me had to bear it.
She took a big bite and went towards the weak and poor mooncake.
“Click.”
A familiar voice made Shen Zhaozhao, who was eating happily, frown.
The male protagonist is indeed not suitable for the kitchen. This thing almost broke her teeth.
When she spit it out, she saw a one-yuan coin lying quietly in the palm of her hand.
She suddenly remembered Mu Yichen’s advice to eat slowly. Now she thought that he was worried that she would swallow it all in one gulp, along with the coin.
【Well, this worry is not without reason.】
But when did my luck become so good?
Shen Zhaozhao picked up another mooncake and gently broke it open. There was also a coin hidden inside, looking at her.
Surprise! Did the good fortune wish I made come true?
She closed her eyes and randomly picked up another mooncake, which also had a coin in it.
An idea popped up in Shen Zhaozhao’s mind that she couldn’t even believe, and she quickly broke open all the remaining mooncakes.
There are six mooncakes, each with a coin hidden inside.
Shen Zhaozhao’s heart suddenly felt burned, boiling and hot.
Was it because her gaze at the coin in Qin Shun’s hand in the afternoon was too obvious?
In any case, Shen Zhaozhao lowered her eyes and looked at the coin in her hand quietly. The warm light wrapped around it, and the light slowly bloomed.
She looked at them, not knowing what to feel. If she only ate one and threw the others aside, wouldn’t she never realize how much effort was put into them?
Or did he want me to get a lucky coin no matter which one I picked?
“Dong Dong Dong…”
My heart started beating uncontrollably again.
Shen Zhaozhao covered her chest with her hands. She was not used to this strange feeling and even felt a little panicked.
【Stop jumping.】
【Oh, no, you can’t not jump, jump slower.】
But her heart wouldn’t listen to her.
“Knock, knock, knock…”
It kept colliding in my chest, and the sound was particularly loud in the silent night.
