Liu Duo sighed. They really were related. It was just a casual remark, and yet he immediately defended his brother?
“Ling, take it easy. I was only joking. I know he’s not lazy. If he is, then no one can be considered hardworking! No rush, no rush.” She gently patted Ye Ling on the back, helping him regulate his breath.
“I’m going to prepare dinner. Ling, you rest. Don’t follow,” she said, knowing Ling was feeling better.
She surely had not seen Ye Mo cook – only boil water – so she was curious to know if he really knew how. That was why she had asked.
She went to the kitchen to help and tried to use the flint to make fire, the way her memories told her to, but to no avail.
How she missed the induction cooker now! She suddenly realised that ever since she had been reborn there, there had been so many things she missed having.
Ye Mo entered and saw Liu Duo, flint in hand, and got impatient really quickly.
“Let me do it.” He grabbed the flint, while Liu Duo got out of the way.
With a click and a sparkle, a fire was made. Liu Duo was stunned. It drove her mad. She had been trying for so long, with no success, but Ye Mo did it on his first try. Was fate playing a trick on her, teasing her looks, perhaps?
She pouted. What was so great about it? She turned to get the rice.
Ye Mo’s eyes caught her expression at that moment. He realised, the more he noticed her in detail, the more interesting quirks he was in her. She was so cute and mischievous.
She had barely opened the rice tank when Ye Mo went to her side. “I thought you said you wanted me to cook, so let me do it, and you go tend to the fire.”
She looked at him. Gosh, has he really changed? So obedient, and gentle?
She absent-mindedly sat by the stove, tending to the fire while looking at him.
“What do you want? Noodles? Paste? Porridge? Or rice?” He looked back at her and asked softly.
“Er… porridge then,” she replied, absently-mindedly.
He looked at her blank face and laughed. This was the first time he had seen her like this, and he found her quite adorable.
Oh my, Liu Duo felt her heart racing. Gosh, is this attraction? And to this violent man?
She laughed as she thought about it. He was indeed handsome, with a dimple on his right cheek, and he looked much better smiling than he did frowning.
Having received his answer, Ye Mo got down to serious business.
As Liu Duo boiled the water, adding firewood every now and then, she spent most of the time staring at Ye Mo.
This was the first time she had studied him in detail. While the four brothers looked handsome and similar, only he and Ye Liu had the same facial features.
Ye Liu represented feminine beauty, while Ye Mo was the masculine one. Ye Yang was stoic and mature. Ye Ling was delicate and gentle. If she had to choose one, who should she pick?
As she thought, Liu Duo got herself into a dilemma. Each one had their perks, so she could not decide.
“Duo Er, what are you thinking about?” Ye Ling entered the kitchen to check on them, worried that Ye Mo would pick a fight with her again.
“Ling, why did you come here. I told you to rest.” Her dilemma vanished when she heard Ye Ling’s voice. Her question was completely hypothetical. All four of them belonged to her anyway.
“It’s the same if I rest here too. Don’t you want to see me?” He sat on the stool beside her, looking at her like he had been wronged.
Oh my, what’s with that look? It’s making me aroused. What’s up with today? Mo’s abnormal, and Ling too? Has spring come?
