The next day.
Chen Nian yawned and was startled as soon as he opened the door.
Shangze Sakura was standing outside the door. She was wearing a soft pink and white cotton T-shirt with falling cherry blossom patterns dotted on it, looking simple and cute.
There is still nothing wrong with her delicate and small oval-shaped face. She feels particularly like a light and elegant "cat".
"Please use."
Shangze Sakura was holding a dinner plate in his hand, with a bowl of steaming noodles on it. The aroma of oil and chopped green onion rushed into Chen Nian's nose.
As soon as I woke up, a beautiful girl brought me breakfast. I have to say, it was very cool!
"Taste your craft."
Chen Nian smiled and took two mouthfuls of noodles, and couldn't help but sigh, "It's delicious, such authentic red oil noodles! Do you eat like this in your hometown?"
"No, I studied the Dragon Country people's dining habits and some basic recipes last night."
"It's so professional..."
Chen Nian couldn't laugh or cry, "You're not really here to be a maid. You can relax a little."
"Either don't do it or do it well. This is the principle of my work. Since I have decided to follow you, I naturally have to do my best." Shangze Sakura looked serious.
"Okay, I'll take you to the supermarket later to buy some daily necessities. But you are also a celebrity now, so wear a mask."
Early in the morning, Chen Nian took Shangze Sakura out to visit the supermarket.
Since Shangze Sakura is so good at cooking, it would not be flattering to buy more ingredients for her to cook any takeaways in the future.
The two came to the supermarket.
"You can choose whatever you want to buy, you're welcome." Chen Nian said.
Shangze Sakura nodded obediently and began to select daily necessities and ingredients for cooking.
Chen Nian looked at the pile of things she had brought, and there were almost no personal belongings, so he asked doubtfully, "Don't you buy something for yourself?"
"No need."
"You're not even wearing any underwear?"
Probably because this question was too offensive, Shangze Sakura looked at Chen Nian with a look of disgust, and explained, "Ninjas usually wear chest wraps and don't wear that kind of thing."
"It's too cruel." Chen Nian shook his head.
"Why?"
"Everything has the right to grow freely, it's not good to be wrapped up too much."
Shangze Sakura was stunned for half a second, and then he realized what he was doing. His face suddenly became a bit disgusted, and he said in Sakura Country language, "Mr. Chen Nian, are you a pervert?"
After saying that, he turned around and walked out angrily.
"If nothing else, it's true that Sakura-chan has a gentle personality. She won't be angry even if she is teased like this." Chen Nian pushed the trolley to the counter to pay.
Shangze Sakura wanted to take it himself, but unexpectedly, Chen Nian directly left an address for the supermarket and said it would be delivered to him shortly.
"Let's go, I'll take you for a walk on the street."
Although the streets in the morning are not lively, there are still fireworks everywhere.
Chen Nian knew that Shangze Sakura had just arrived and was not familiar with the place, so he wanted to help her get familiar with it and slowly adapt to it.
Along the way, Shangze Sakura followed Chen Nian silently. I don't know whether it was because he was afraid of strangers or what.
Until, the two of them passed by a street stall.
The stall was filled with a strong scent of sugar, and there were several children surrounding it.
The person setting up the stall was an old man with gray hair. He picked up a spoon, put a spoonful of melted sugar on it, and began to draw pictures on a white silicone mat.
Shangze Sakura looked over and his eyes lit up slightly.
"Interested? Go and have a look."
Chen Nian took her over and introduced, "The scientific name of this thing is sugar painting, and the folk name is sugar pourer. It is painted with sugar to make many patterns, which is beautiful and delicious."
"So awesome..."
Shangze Sakura watched the old man draw a dragon and couldn't help but sigh.
The old man greeted with a smile, "Little girl, what pattern do you want? You can draw everything in this booklet."
Shangze Sakura turned to look at Chen Nian, as if asking for his opinion, Chen Nian smiled and nodded.
"... this!"
So, she pointed to the butterfly.
"Okay, let me draw you two butterflies."
The old man started working immediately, and soon, two butterflies drawn with syrup were formed.
Shangze Sakura carefully took the two bamboo sticks, her beautiful eyes were full of surprise, it was the first time she had seen such a thing.
Chen Nian paid.
On the way back, I watched her holding two butterflies in her hands and couldn't help but ask:
"Aren't you going to eat?"
"It looks so good, I can't bear to eat it."
"If you don't eat it, I'll eat it so that it won't be wasted later."
"Hey!"
Chen Nian was caught off guard and grabbed a butterfly and bit it in one bite.
With a click, the butterfly shattered into pieces and turned into syrup in the mouth.
Shangze Sakura was so angry that her beautiful eyes widened. "You... you!"
"Farewell to you and me, I will come out to buy something for you next time. It will take a long time to come."
Shangze Sakura followed Chen Nian aggrievedly. After a while, she seemed to have figured it out and tried to put the butterfly sugar cake into her mouth.
The sweet syrup mixed with saliva melted in her mouth, and a look of surprise emerged between her brows.
She smiled.
This was the first time she laughed since she met Chen Nian.
The previous pain has slowly passed, and she has also felt the warmth of life around Chen Nian. At least she no longer has a sullen face and is bitter and resentful all day long.
"Thank you."
Shangze Sakura knows that Chen Nian didn't mean to tease him.
He wanted to be more casual and not be so rigid, and deliberately used this method to diffuse the relationship between the two.
It turns out that this guy is quite gentle.
I couldn't help feeling a little fond of Chen Nian, which made Shangze Sakura's walking pace become a little brisker, and he soon caught up with Chen Nian from behind.
"Weren't you reluctant to eat it just now?" Chen Nian teased.
Shangze Sakura bit his lip, wiped away the smile from the corner of his mouth, turned his head and hummed softly, ignoring him.
Afternoon.
Chen Nian received a phone call.
Su Jinyu is calling.
He knew that although Su Jinyu had always wanted to see him, it was not convenient for her to move around. And now that the whole world wanted to know the whereabouts of Buyu, there must be more eyes staring at her.
Because she belongs to Mountains and Rivers in Lasting Peace, and so does Buyu. A large number of people want to find Chen Nian through her.
"Xiao Yu?"
"Miss me?"
"Think."
"Then why don't you come to Lu City to find me?"
"Ahem, I just came back from the war and need to rest for a few days."
"You can't be secretly playing with Sakura girl, and you are too happy to miss Shu, Buyu brother~~"
"How could that happen? I have already handed her over to Tang Rou. If you don't believe me, just ask Tang Rou."
"Hmph! My best friend will come over to visit you today. I have told her your home address and she will be there soon."
"What? Your bestie!" Chen Nian was shocked.
"Well, I was a very good friend when I was a child. She has been studying abroad in London some time ago. She just returned to China recently. She even came to my house to play a few days ago."
"There is a saying: Fire prevention, theft prevention, bestie prevention..."
"It's okay. I trust her! Oh, she seems to have arrived. She is wearing a red scarf. You must receive her well."
"Red scarf?"
