Xia Zhi made no other moves and walked to the kitchen to start cooking dinner. After all, it was not a good idea to disturb Xia Meng now.
There’s nothing particular about rice. Although Xia Zhi is a chef, he’s only half-experienced. He doesn’t even know what kind of rice and ginseng can get the best taste. Although most people won’t study it,
Facts have proved that Akiko Himekoji does have extraordinary abilities in cooking.
Due to the dual limitations of ingredients and abilities, it took Xia Zhi a relatively short time to prepare the dishes and put them on the plate. Then he only had to wait for about ten minutes for the rice to be cooked.
Xia Zhi came to the living room and looked down behind the sofa to see Xia Meng who had a book on her lap and a mobile phone on top of the book. Well, she probably put her mobile phone on top of the book because she was tired from reading just now.
, just taking a short rest. That must be the case.
After all, Xia Meng is not a child who would use reading as a cover for playing with mobile phones. No matter what you were doing before seeing you in other families, as long as what your parents see when they see you is reading, then you have always been that person.
When you are reading a book, if what you see is playing with your mobile phone, then you must have been playing with your mobile phone until now. Xia Meng is different, if you see her reading a book, then she has been reading until now. If you are playing with your mobile phone, then
She must have just picked up her phone and played with it for a while because she was tired from reading.
Xia Meng is the embodiment of perfection and cannot be addicted to things like mobile phones.
"The rice will be ready in about ten minutes."
"Um."
Xia Meng didn't make any move, just hummed softly. She lowered her head, and the screen of her mobile phone was not on. The mobile phone blocked the words on the book, and she didn't know what she was doing.
But Xia Zhi had no desire to explore further. Xia Meng naturally had her own purpose in doing this. Anyway, she told herself that she didn't understand it, and it didn't matter whether she knew it or not.
Xia Zhi sat on the sofa next to Smart. Sitting on it felt like a wooden rocking chair. Although it didn't really rock, Xia Zhi still felt that it was quite comfortable to sit on.
It's just that Xia Zhi rarely sits on the sofa since the introduction of the kotatsu. Maybe when the kotatsu is put away in the summer when it's hotter, Xia Zhi will sit on the sofa more often.
"What are you doing sitting over there?" Before Xia Zhi felt comfortable, Xia Meng's voice attracted his attention. Xia Zhi looked at Xia Meng and found that his sister was looking at him, with nothing on her face.
expression, but Xia Zhi could read dissatisfaction from it. This is probably because they have lived together for a longer time and have higher passive skills.
"Just taking a little rest."
"I mean, why did you go all the way to sit there?" Xia Meng patted the sofa next to her that still had a lot of space left: "Can't we still sit here?"
"It will be more crowded if I sit over. Mengmeng, you usually lie down when reading. If I sit over, there won't be any space to lie down, right? Although lying down and reading is indeed not a good habit, Mengmeng, you'd better be more careful.
.”
"Come and sit here, I'll lie down more comfortably." Xia Meng patted the seat next to her again, her meaning already obvious.
Although Xia Zhi didn't think clearly about why Xia Meng could lie down more comfortably after taking a seat in the past, but since Xia Meng didn't mind, it was okay for him to go there and just sit there. Then, Xia Zhi understood
Xia Meng said that it would be more comfortable to lie down if she sat there. Xia Zhi was glad that he bought Xia Meng a hair tie instead of a hairpin, otherwise he would have been tortured again.
Xia Meng changed sides and lay down, just like she did when she returned home before the Chinese New Year, resting on Xia Zhi's legs and playing with her mobile phone with her head raised.
In fact, Xia Zhi feels that Xia Meng's action is not very comfortable, because it is easy for the eyes to get dazzled and tired when playing with the mobile phone with the head raised, and the movement of holding the mobile phone is also very laborious. However, there is only a thin line between genius and madman.
That's all, maybe Xia Meng feels more comfortable?
"Playing with your phone like this is bad for your eyes." But he still had to do what he should do, so Xia Zhi reminded Xia Meng. Because he didn't express any hope that Xia Meng would listen to him, so when he saw Xia Meng put down his phone, Xia Zhi
There is also a feeling of surprise in it, like winning in a lottery.
However, Xia Zhi felt the bottom-up gaze again, which made him feel even more stressed.
So did you bring this on yourself?
But I don’t regret it, since there is no one to issue the card anyway.
"By the way, I remembered something." Xia Zhi lowered his head and looked into Xia Meng's upward-looking eyes: "The manager of the store where I work asked me to take you over for dinner when I'm free.
, Mengmeng, do you want to go?"
"Why go out of your way to eat at someone else's house?" Xia Meng asked.
"This store manager helped me a lot when I first came here. If it weren't for him, it would have taken me a long time to adapt to life here. Maybe I would just go back home. Maybe. Yes.
I am so lucky to have met their family.”
"According to what you said, I shouldn't have a good impression of them." Xia Meng looked at Xia Zhi: "I still don't have a good impression of you coming here from home. And the facts prove that you are here
There are also a lot of questions. How on earth did a girl of that quality get involved with you?"
Xia Zhi felt a little guilty: "One is a classmate, and the other is a regular customer who happened to know each other. We got to know each other from time to time. There is nothing I can do about it. Moreover, I have received a lot of care from them."
"We'll talk about this later. And then, what happened to the store manager of which store you work at? Why did you ask you to take me to dinner with you?"
"Actually, it's nothing. He just knew that Mengmeng you had come to Japan and wanted to meet him to see what you were like. It was probably just out of curiosity." Xia Zhi thought for a moment: "The store manager's wife is also a
Very nice people, they even taught me Japanese for a while at the beginning. Their daughter is also a very cute girl.”
Xia Meng's eyes suddenly became sharp, and Xia Zhi hurriedly explained: "Their daughter is less than... less than seven years old now!"
Xia Meng's sharp eyes softened a lot.
"If you attack such a young child, you should know the consequences, right?"
"No, no, no." Xia Zhi shook his head crazily. Instead of worrying that he would shake his head off, he was more worried that he would be sent to prison by Xia Meng himself.
