I was about to open my mouth to say something when unexpectedly the ‘river’ of the tears started flowing out and I could not hold it in.
Jiang Li squatted down, looked at my face in disbelief: “Are you……crying?”
Oh crap, he did not see that, did he??
Jiang Li in a conciliatory tone said: “By the way do you know that you look more attractive while crying than laughing.”
I looked at his face that was in a very close proximity to my face, really wanted to punch his face hard.
Jiang Li got up to sit on the couch, pulled out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it over to me: “How can a thick-skinned person like you cry, did someone dare to bully you, eh?”
I took his handkerchief and silently wiped my tears. Yes, ah I was crying but who dared to bully me?
Nobody……Also, who said I had thick skin, huh……
Jiang Li leaned against the back of the couch and nonchalantly said: “You just got fired, right? It’s alright; there is no need to worry. I can still support you.”
I felt as if he was gloating over my misery, so I snapped: “Who needs your support!!!!”
Jiang Li said: “You got bullied outside, ran back home and then got angry at me. You just have all the signs of a person who needs support.”
I moved my worn out body, stood up to prepare dinner in order to divert Jiang Li’s attention.
Jiang Li: “What are you doing?”
Me: “Going to prepare dinner.”
Jiang Li suddenly grabbed my wrist and pulled me back to the couch again.
This time I was really very angry: “What the hell are you doing?”
Jiang Li in a neither too fast nor too slow tone replied: “I am afraid with your present mind set you will burn up the whole kitchen.”
“Jiang Li!! Can’t you see I am in a bad mood, so for once can you not bully me and leave me alone?”
“I am not bullying you.” Jiang Li thought for a while, suddenly straightened up
and said: “Okay, I will cook and you observe.”
I thought I had heard wrong.
…….
Because Jiang Li’s cooking was a rare treat so I also cheered up a bit instantly and went to the kitchen together with him.
Jiang Li pointed to a corner in the kitchen and told me: “you stand here and don’t move an inch. Just silently observe from here.”
I sincerely followed his instructions.
Jiang Li took out all the vegetables from refrigerator, threw away the ones
which were no longer fresh and put the remaining one in a big bowl filled with
water. After that he started washing them expertly.
I was a bit puzzled: “You really look like a professional even though you don’t even know how to cook.”
Bowing his head while washing the vegetables, he said: “I only know how to wash vegetables. Earlier at my home I used to wash vegetables, my mother used to do the cooking and my father used to wash dishes.”
