After rummaging in bed for a few moments, Ji Chi grabbed a bathrobe from the corner of the bed, put it on, and walked out of the room.
Wen He said she didn't want to make breakfast for Ji Chi, but she obediently cooked 30 large dumplings. There was also a breakfast set on the dining table, unnamed, so it was unclear whose it was.
Wen He divided the dumplings equally and placed them on the table, then took off his apron.
Ji Chi, dressed neatly, went downstairs.
He's back to looking like a normal person...
Wen He hadn't forgotten the evil deeds Ji Chi had committed that morning, and he wouldn't give him a pleasant look.
Wen He ignored the other person's greeting and quietly put four more dumplings into her own bowl than Ji Chi had been given.
The large dumplings with thin skins and thick fillings, dipped in aged vinegar and chili, are bursting with juice when you bite into them.
Hot, hot, hot...!
A glass of milk was handed to his lips, Wen He opened his mouth and gulped it down.
Ji Chi wiped away the little bit of saliva that had spilled from the corner of his mouth.
Eat slowly, don't burn yourself.
"Mmm..." Ji Chi poured him another cup of milk after he finished the whole cup in one gulp.
My entire palate felt numb, and when I pressed the tip of my tongue against it, the skin felt loose...
He sighed softly, poked a hole in the dumpling skin in the bowl, revealing the meat filling inside. The soup inside flowed out, still steaming.
Ji Chi placed the milk in front of him, and the two sat opposite him and ate breakfast together.
The other breakfast on the table had gone cold.
[I woke up late, whose breakfast is this?]
[ Lawyer Jiang?]
[It wasn't Lawyer Jiang. Lawyer Jiang went out early this morning; he must be busy with work.]
[It was made by Xiao Yu ]
[Who did Xiao Yu make this for? Did he eat it himself?]
[That scared me to death! Thank goodness it wasn't Lawyer Jiang... I couldn't bear to see Lawyer Jiang so disappointed...]
[I'm not sure who it's for. I'm quite curious about who Xiao Yu will invite on a date. Jiangjiang should be Yun Li, right?]
Zhou Siyu and Jiang Yu were the victors last night, and they are currently getting ready in their room.
Yun Li shaved off his stubble in front of the bathroom mirror, then borrowed hair wax from Wei Xun and applied it to his hair. His neat outfit made him look less boyish, and he was confident that Jiang Yu would definitely invite him today!
Zhou Siyu stared at her reflection in the mirror, her eyes filled with conflict, the card clutched tightly in her hand already somewhat crumpled...
After hesitating for a moment, he took the card, went out the door, and headed straight for Xie Zhengci's room.
Xie Zhengci sat in the chair, the phone screen on the table still lit up, and the slowly ticking clock added to his unease.
Will the other person choose me?
thump thump thump--
A knock sounded at the door, and a pink card was slipped under the door.
Xie Zhengci picked up the slightly wrinkled card from the ground, and his restless heart calmed down as the card was smoothed out.
Xie Zhengci smiled and walked to the wardrobe, intending to pick out the best-looking dress from inside.
Those who got dating cards dressed up, while those who didn't get dating cards tried to harass others.
Wen He pushed the empty plate in front of her towards Ji Chi.
"I'm done eating, you have to wash the dishes." After saying this, he quickly ran away, leaving the other person with only his back view.
"Okay, I'll wash them." A dozen or so dumplings weren't enough to fill Ji Chi's stomach, so he took out his phone and ordered takeout, and also ordered a small egg tart with Wen He.
Wen He rubbed his slightly bulging belly, half-lying on the sofa to digest... He didn't have a big appetite, but this time he stubbornly forced himself to eat the dumplings, and now he felt a little uncomfortable...
He suddenly regretted his actions... He should have made Ji Chi suffer instead...
Wen He gently rubbed her stomach, attempting to aid digestion manually.
There weren't many people on the first floor since there were no events, and with some free time, Wen He couldn't help but start thinking about her relationship with Ji Chi...
My best friend... could it really be like this?
This morning... DaDaHe woke up. Would someone really treat their best friend like that?
Ji Chi was still in the kitchen, busy with something.
Wen He opened her phone again and started searching.
Is it normal to have a reaction to your period when you wake up early?
He browsed through the posts and found very few similar ones, only one that was similar.
I had morning sickness this morning, and my best friend and I even helped each other out—it felt so good!
OP: That's awesome!
1L: The original poster is too outspoken. Next time, please don't let us see these kinds of private questions together.
2L: Are you guys really good brothers? Can good friends really help each other?
3L: Uh... this doesn't look normal at all! You asked your roommate for help when you had morning sickness?
4l: I can't believe what the previous comment said...
The original poster replied: I can't do it either. I won't let anyone touch me except my girlfriend, haha. Actually, she's not a close friend, she's my girlfriend.
5l: Besides a romantic partner, who would do that? And kissing? I would never kiss my best friend.
Wen He read through the replies, a chill ran down her spine... Was Ji Chi lying to her? Or did he not know either...?
The post had just been published, Wen He quickly replied below.
6L: Is it normal for your best friend to kiss you?
Original poster's reply: That's not normal.
Reply: He said that's how good friends are.
OP replied: You've been scammed. Are you male or female?
Reply: He's a guy, he's a guy too, and he kissed me this morning...
The original poster replied: How did you feel? Like when he kissed you.
Reply: It was very comfortable... and I was very happy.
Although somewhat embarrassed, Wen He still expressed her feelings.
Re: This morning when he kissed me... I even had a reaction, is this really normal?
The original poster replied: Are you kidding me? Are you two a couple?
Reply: We're not lovers, we're good friends.
OP replied: (laughing and crying) You two are doing things only couples do. Either you're faking it, or you're genuinely innocent...
Wen He paused, replied with a thank you, and immediately left. Ji Chi had already walked up to him without him noticing.
"What are you looking at? Your face has turned pale."
Ji Chi reached out to touch his little face as usual, but Wen He slapped his hand away.
Wen He ran towards the room on the second floor with his phone in his arms, his steps so fast it seemed as if something dirty was chasing him.
After locking the door to prevent Ji Chi barging in, Wen He pounced on the bed and pushed all the blankets into the corner.
My heart was pounding wildly, filled with Ji Chi's presence...
What do you mean only couples do that...? But aren't we just good friends?
Although she felt happy when Ji Chi her... but... but she definitely didn't like him.
Wen He was certain she disliked Ji Chi, so she couldn't possibly like him...
Then what am I? I don't like the other person, yet I kiss them.
Am I a jerk?
Wen He shook her head, trying to clear her mind of those thoughts.
I'm definitely not a jerk!
