Bai Wanxi’s stomach was not good. She couldn’t eat cold food or snacks, so she could only eat some hot porridge and a few side dishes. But it was already so late. Where could she find these things?
“Forget it, I’ll endure it.” Bai Wanxi returned to her room.
The moment she pushed the door open, the room was filled with the fragrance of rice.
Bai Wanxi lit a lamp in surprise. Walking to the table, she saw hot porridge and two delicious side dishes on it.
Bai Wanxi’s heart stirred as an idea popped up in her mind. She rushed out of the room. As expected, she watched as a figure quietly left.
The figure in blue was sneaking around as if it was afraid that Bai Wanxi would notice.
However, Bai Wanxi could still tell that it was Baili Yu.
“Seriously, why doesn’t he stay after giving me this? He left so quickly. Am I that scary?” Bai Wanxi’s words were filled with amusement. She returned to her room and finished the food Baili Yu had prepared. She then went to bed to rest with a satisfied stomach.
At first, Chi Jiao and Quan Jue didn’t know about Baili Yu’s deed. It wasn’t until the next day when Bai Jiao’er came to Bai Wanxi’s room and saw the empty dishes left on the table, as well as Baili Yu’s injuries from cooking, as he wasn’t familiar with it, that the two of them finally understood what Baili Yu had done for her.
When in love, even the falling of flowers and the flowing of water held meaning. Over the next few days, Baili Yu would prepare delicious food for Bai Wanxi every night. Although it was just ordinary porridge, it brought Bai Wanxi an unprecedented warmth.
Chi Jiao originally thought that with Bai Jiao’er’s innocent personality, it would take a long time for her to notice their relationship.
However, Chi Jiao underestimated her. Although Bai Jiao’er was usually naughty and liked to cause trouble, she cared a lot about her sister. She instantly noticed the relationship between her sister and the scholar.
Not only that, Bai Jiao’er even became a liaison between the two of them. Every time, she would inform Baili Yu an hour before Bai Wanxi returned to the residence.
No matter how late it was, Baili Yu would patiently prepare dinner for her.
Tonight, Bai Jiao’er had returned an hour earlier than her sister as usual. She laid on the warm stove in the kitchen and fell asleep.
Baili Yu had been making supper the past few days, and his movements gradually became more skilled. He was no longer as prone to making mistakes and scalding himself as before. He quickly prepared some porridge and two delicious side dishes.
After placing the food on the tray, Baili Yu rubbed Bai Jiao’er’s soft hair. “Miss Jiaojiao, I’ll have to trouble you to deliver my food tonight.”
“Me again? Brother Baili, you always ask me to deliver the food to my sister. She might think that I’m the one who made this delicious food for her. How will she know how good you are then?” Bai Jiao’er asked.
Ever since Bai Jiao’er uncovered Baili Yu’s deed, he had given her the task of delivering the food to Bai Wanxi.
Over the past few days, Bai Wanxi didn’t probe too much about the food. If Baili Yu didn’t make an appearance, how could he convey his feelings?
If Bai Wanxi thought that these dishes were made by Bai Jiao’er, wouldn’t Baili Yu have done all this for nothing?
