  Chapter 37 Cooking soup for her under the same roof

   "No." Pei Zhi spit out the mouthwash, and his mouth was filled with the sweetness of peach.

   He handed her a tissue and waited for her to wipe off the crystals stained on her lips before turning her eyes away in time.

   "Uncle, wait a second." Lin Jiao suddenly remembered something and ran to the living room again.

   She found the spare charger from the cabinet, stood at the door of the second bedroom, and pointed to the head of the bed: "The plugs on both sides can be used."

   "Well." Pei Zhi took over the charger.

   He said good night to her and watched the door on the opposite side close little by little, before he was willing to isolate the darkness by the porch.

   Living under the same roof with her was something he had longed for but could not ask for. When he lay on the bed, wrapped in the scent of the bathrobe, it seemed as if his life had become complete.

   He was facing the white wall, and his mind was filled with her appearance, as if she was with him, and he fell asleep within a moment.

  The male cicada perched on the willow tree, as the sun rose, chirped again under the blazing sun.

  Summer is their mating season. The hotter the sun is, the more joyous it will be, and its high courtship signal will float throughout the community.

   Pei Zhi was woken up before his alarm clock went off.

   He turned on the screen to check the time, and after a while, went into the bathroom to wash up, and then went to prepare lunch for her.

   At three quarters of noon, a strong aroma of soup permeated from the kitchen. As soon as Lin Jiao opened the door, the scent grabbed her nose.

   She stepped on her flip-flops and had slightly messy long hair, and ran into the kitchen: "Uncle, have you cooked the soup?"

   Pei Zhi nodded: "Want to try it?"

   "Think." Lin Jiao glanced at the pot, like a cat waiting to be fed, too obedient.

   She waited for Pei Zhi to cool down a spoonful of soup, took the spoon handle from his hand, and drank it contentedly.

"what about the taste?"

   "It's delicious. I usually like to put Codonopsis in chicken soup. I didn't expect you to do the same."

  Many people can't accept this taste.

   Gu Quan, for example, every time she cooks chicken soup with Codonopsis, he frowns and shows a displeased look.

   Pei Zhi pulled back her thoughts: "I still have a few kilograms of Codonopsis ginseng over there. I'll bring it to you another day."

   "How much has the Codonopsis ginseng risen now?"

   "About six hundred."

   Lin Jiao responded lightly, "Then I'll cook it for you next time." She handed him the spoon and held back the thought of taking another sip.

   "Okay." Pei Zhi couldn't ask for it.

   He bent down slightly, supported her arm, and adjusted her shoes with the other hand: "You go to wash first."

  Lin Jiao nodded: "I'll help you later."

   She left the kitchen with light steps, washed as quickly as possible, and returned to the room to change into a pair of pajamas.

   When she was passing by the second bedroom, she heard a shock in a trance, so she followed the sound to the head of the bed and picked up the phone.

   "Uncle, your phone is ringing."

   "Who fought?"

   "Chu Yuzhou."

   Pei Zhi was busy cooking, so Chu Yuzhou didn't care, he turned his head to the door and said, "Help me pick it up."

  Lin Jiao pressed the answer button, and before he could make a syllable, he heard him ask, "Brother, have you eaten yet?"

   "Not yet, he's cooking."

  “…”

  Chu Yuzhou's smoke was shocked.

   He swallowed his saliva twice, made sure that the phone number was not wrong, and asked tentatively, "Lin Jiao?"

   "Yeah." Lin Jiao bit open the biscuit bag, stuffed a piece into her mouth, filling her stomach: "Are you looking for him?"
