Chapter 348 I Can Help
The next morning, the doors of the master bedroom and the guest bedroom opened at the same time. The sleepy green cucumber and the energetic 27-year-old man met each other. After a second of silence, the two greeted each other tacitly.
"Good morning……"
"Good morning, Xiao Mu, what's for breakfast?"
"Bacon and bread."
"Okay, wait a moment."
“And mango juice.”
"There are no good mangoes in winter. How about apple juice?"
Xiao Mu looked a little disappointed, but he nodded obediently, then walked into the bathroom with light steps. If he didn't have his phone in his hand, it probably wouldn't take him long, so he had to make breakfast quickly.
It was already midnight when I got home last night. Unexpectedly, Xiaomu, who usually stayed up late to play farming games, was the first one to rest last night. In one hand, he was holding the donut gift box that Mana could neither finish nor share, and in the other hand, he was holding the cucumber leaning against his arms. He stood in front of his house as if he was paralyzed, and spent a long time searching for the key.
I'm sorry, next time when Su Shi is not at home, I must ask Ai Yin or someone else who is free to accompany me home, if for no other reason than to make it convenient for me to use them.
"Ah (*meaningless yawn*)... That's not right, isn't Sushi awake yet?"
Awakened by the unique aroma of the extremely expensive Bavarian specialty bacon stimulated by olive oil, Baihe Sanhui suddenly realized that Su Shi seemed to have gotten up very late today... Oh, Su Shi was sent by him to spy on Chu Hua, no wonder the house felt empty last night.
Speaking of which, whether it is olive oil, high-end imported bacon, or even most of the ingredients in the refrigerator, they are all prepared by Su Shi.
When I first saw the receipt that looked like a tape measure, I secretly disliked Su Shi for wasting money. Later, after I got used to Su Shi taking care of the kitchen work, I let her do it. Since I had the financial means, I might as well eat better. How could I, who was waiting to eat, dislike the cook?
I mechanically chopped the not-so-fresh shiitake mushrooms into cubes, drizzled some olive oil on them and moved them to the edge of the pan to heat them up. I roasted the cherry tomatoes over an open flame until the skin wrinkled, and then it was my favorite pineapple slices' turn to be cooked. Of course, no heavy sauce was needed, just some black pepper and sea salt would be enough.
then……
Baihe Sanhui suddenly lost consciousness. He hadn't made breakfast for a long time and didn't remember what to do next.
Why isn't Su Shi here? Why did I send Su Shi to be the warlord? Why is life so difficult without Su Shi?
As if triggered by some ancient muscle memory, Kashiwa Sanhui squinted his eyes and dug into the pocket of his windbreaker. In his hand was his favorite pineapple-flavored lollipop. Although eating candy in the morning is not good for teeth, but...
…Baihe Sanhui didn't eat it. Instead, he brought the tip of the lollipop handle close to the stovetop, which was burning with a pale blue flame. When a clear spark appeared, he took the candy coating and put it in his mouth, inhaling it as if by muscle memory…
We all know that the handle of a lollipop is mostly made of slippery plastic, so this breath did not bring even a little pressure relief to the doctor. Instead, the burning part was sucked into his mouth, burning a small hole in the inner wall of Coca-Cola's mouth, but fortunately he did not choke to death.
Of course, it's not all bad news. At least Kashiwa Sanhui is fully awake.
"Ahem...it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, what am I doing?"
I took a quick look in the mirror. There was no bleeding. There was no need to rush to treat this small wound. I should make Xiao Mu's breakfast first. I couldn't let the tenants in my house go hungry, especially Xiao Mu, the most well-behaved child...
Let’s not talk about the fact that he joined forces with Miao Meng to backstab him. That was a matter of direction. As long as he talked things out and followed the principle of punishing the past, preventing future mistakes, and curing the disease to save people, Xiao Mu would still be a lovable and good boy.
I'll find time to talk to Miao Mengqin about the interest on the debt. After all, someone has to bear the responsibility if there is a problem. If I can't bear to use Xiao Mu as a scapegoat, I can only let Miao Mengqin down.
Thoughts in my mind came one after another like kites in Weifang flying higher and higher. Before I knew it, a simple but delicious English breakfast was ready and served on the table. I sat next to Xiao Mu, propped up my chin and watched the cucumber girl eat with relish.
To be honest, my cooking skills have declined a bit. The shiitake mushrooms should not be chopped, the bacon is a bit burnt, the bread slices are too thick and the edges are a bit hard. Xiao Mu grimaced while eating, probably because he got pricked by the corner of his mouth.
It seems that I am a little too dependent on Su Shi?
Looking at Xiao Mu drinking apple juice in small sips, Baihe Sanhui sighed quietly, but took a napkin in his hand to wipe her chin stained with black pepper juice. The little girl's face should be clean.
"Um... Doctor, are you in a bad mood?"
With Xiao Mutou's characteristic look, Baihe Sanhui was in a really bad mood at the moment. He was actually very sleepy, but he was forced to get up early because he was busy with the evening live and unfinished work. Although he was used to the unhealthy schedule of only five hours of sleep a day, he couldn't hide his tiredness.
"A little bit, but it has nothing to do with you," Baihe Sanhui forced a smile and patted Xiaomu's head. "Eat your food, I still have to work later."
It would be a lie to say that I had nothing to do with Xiaomu. My only desire at this moment was to have breakfast and then go to sleep. After waking up, I would go to the Internet cafe in the shopping mall opposite to play tiles. I would come back to sleep after having fun. If Xiaomu didn't mind, I would like to hug her to sleep. A cold pillow is not as comfortable as hugging a soft and fragrant cucumber.
However, it is better to hide this kind of dazzling repression that is beyond the wildest imagination of human beings in your heart and not say it out loud. Not to mention that it does not respect Xiao Mu's personality at all, even if you really do this and nothing happens, after setting this bad precedent, who knows what will happen to Xiao Mu.
It seems that I still can't play against Wa, at least I can't go to the Internet cafe to play duo with that guy Subaru. Even if I play duo with him, I have to pretend that I don't know him.
"I can help..." Xiao Mu said this with a pitiful look in his eyes. He even held his half-finished apple juice in his hands and handed it to the doctor to please him. "The doctor didn't have breakfast, you can drink it."
"Ah...you drink it, I'll eat later."
"Doctor, your shirt is unbuttoned."
"It's okay, I haven't taken a shower yet, it won't delay..."
"Doctor, you are actually very tired, right?"
He could argue about everything else, but this was the one thing Baihe Sanhui had to admit and couldn't hide at all. For a 27-year-old Lao Deng who used bare face cream to cover up dark circles and bags under his eyes, even if he said a word of denial, it would not have any credibility at all.
Pretending to be calm, he wiped off the makeup cream that was left on his face from last night. The faint white color on his fingers was unexpectedly dazzling. Baihe Sanhui had to face Xiaomu's eyes calmly, which were obviously kind and caring, but in his opinion were no different from questioning.
"Well, I'm actually pretty exhausted right now, but there are still a lot of things I haven't finished, so I have to persevere."
"I can help."
"You haven't learned those things, so you can't help me."
"I can help."
"You can't help much... Ugh!"
Generally speaking, as a biologically strong adult, Kashiwa Sanhui should not be unable to react to Xiaomu standing up and hugging his head in his arms... Generally speaking, this is the case.
But why didn't I avoid it?
Maybe it’s because as a child who lost his mother in both lives, I have always hoped in my heart that someone could care about me like this.
In any case, the 1.5-meter-tall Xiaomu's figure is actually better than the 1.6-meter-tall Aine's, and I have truly understood and felt this.
All he had to do now was to quickly struggle out of Xiao Mu's arms, then summon his incredible wisdom to come up with a way to make Xiao Mu not feel disliked while still letting him know that this was a bit excessive, and then go back to work and write a report like a piece of shit...
...Fuck the report. Even touching the pen once today would be an insult to Xiaomu's courage.
Although his inner emotions had almost completely taken over his IQ, the remaining rationality still drove Kashiwa Sanhui to put his hands in his pockets and tightly grasp the fabric at the opening of the bag to ensure that he would not do anything more beastly.
As for the rest... just close your eyes and enjoy it quietly.
I don’t know how long it took for the girl’s warmth to leave his face, but Kashiwa Sanhui still didn’t want to open his eyes. Now he just wanted to lean back in the chair and have a good sleep.
"Doctor, look...I can help."
"Well, thank you... I want to sleep for a while, don't wake me up."
"it is good."
Xiao Mu didn't say much, but silently brought a thin quilt and carefully covered it on Baihe Sanhui, who had lowered his head and started snoring. Then he sat across from the dining table and watched silently while drinking the rest of his apple juice.
