Feeling the warmth of the hand, Gu Nian lowered her head, and her heart started to skip a beat. For more chapters visit NovelHub(.)net
Oh my, such a beautiful hand is holding her plump little paw that she nurtured over time.
She really wanted to touch it, to see if such a lovely hand feels as comfortable as it looks.
Swallowing instinctively, Gu Nian somehow managed to suppress the impulse bubbling inside her.
"What’s up?" Nan Jinyu was oblivious, thinking of her as his cute little sister, unaware that she is actually a quirky elder sister with a soul a few years older than his.
And this quirky elder sister is now secretly dreaming about his perfect hands fit for a hand model.
"Nothing." Gu Nian dared not speak, hurriedly withdrawing her hand.
Otherwise, she was really afraid she wouldn’t be able to control herself.
Sitting groggily at the dining table, Gu Nian felt invigorated again looking at the appetizing feast in front of her.
She had bought quite a few burnt cakes when she came back from the town, so there was no need to cook lunch at home.
She and Mrs. Jiang had eaten at Qinglin Restaurant and didn’t even touch the burnt cakes.
She didn’t feel hungry initially, but looking at the delicious food, she suddenly felt not eating it would be a waste.
Nan Jinyu had a small appetite and hardly ate much of the meals every day, which benefited the village dogs that came around for scraps at meal times.
Gu Nian was enjoying her meal and saw Nan Jinyu put down his bowl and chopsticks disinterestedly, so she didn’t care about manners and directly put a chopstick of braised pork into his bowl, "Nan, you’re still growing, even if you don’t want to eat, you should eat more. Otherwise, you might not grow tall due to malnutrition. Even if you are very good-looking, if your height doesn’t match, it’ll cut down your looks quite a bit."
It wasn’t the first time he was complimented, but this time felt different from the others.
"You think I’m short?" In reality, his height had surpassed many already, and he was only 14, with his body still growing.
"It’s not about being short; you need to eat well." Gu Nian said, "The food from Qinglin Restaurant is quite expensive; not eating it would be a waste."
With that, she dug in again vigorously.
Looking at the braised pork in his bowl that was served with her used chopsticks, Nan Jinyu stared at it for a while and then picked it up, putting it in his mouth.
He didn’t feel disgusted as he had expected; in fact, he found it quite pleasant.
With a smile, Nan Jinyu said, "So what if it’s expensive? It’s not as tasty as your cooking."
Gu Nian suddenly paused in her eating.
Thinking for a moment, she said, "When I’m not so busy in the future, can I make some meals for you occasionally?"
It’s just an opportunity to help him heal his legs.
Gu Nian thought about it; she had already revealed herself to him, and he hadn’t done anything towards her, nor had he demanded she use the spiritual spring water to heal him. Such a rare friend should be cherished rather than being scared and watching him remain in the wheelchair.
"Sure, I won’t force you, and you shouldn’t tire yourself."
After Nan Jinyu spoke, Gu Nian suddenly said, "Nan, if I ever meet danger one day, you’ll protect me, right?"
Nan Jinyu looked up and spoke naturally yet seriously, "As long as you don’t do anything to harm Yunyao, as long as I am alive, I can protect you."
Gu Nian smiled radiantly, "I’m just an insignificant farm girl whose biggest goal is to earn a little fortune and live a good life; how would I have the opportunity to harm Yunyao?"
Nan Jinyu reached out and gently ruffled her hair.
