Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Looking at her aggrieved expression, Shen Yao sighed weakly.

‘Ah Tao, I’m not angry with you.’

‘Liar…” Ji Zhao bit her lip in grievance. “You’re not even looking at me, and you’re still saying that you’re not angry?

“I just—”

‘Just what?” Ji Zhao blinked in confusion.

‘Tm just angry with myself.” Shen Yao suddenly approached her and raised his hand to gently rub the scar on her cheek. His gentle eyes were filled with heartache. “If I could be firm and accompany you to the county office, at least you wouldn’t be so seriously injured. The reason why I don’t want to see you is because my heart aches.’

My heart aches.

Ji Zhao was stunned.

She felt a strange feeling in her heart.

‘Ah Tao, put yourself in my shoes. If I were the one who was injured..

“Ptui ptui ptui! Knock on wood!”

Ji Zhao hurriedly interrupted him and even reached out to cover his mouth!

‘Don’t talk nonsense!”

Shen Yao smiled helplessly and gently held her hand.

‘Alright, I won’t say anymore.”

After finishing the big bowl of red bean porridge, Ji Zhao felt her stomach become warm and comfortable.

‘Ah Tao?”

‘Yes?”

‘The wound on your face is too obvious now. If you go home now, Father and

Mother will definitely be worried.” Shen Yao held her hand and said softly, “But staying in a restaurant is not a long-term solution.’

‘Then what should we do?” Ji Zhao asked with a frown. “I want to go home after I recover.”

‘Let’s go to Big Brother’s shop.” Shen Yao thought for a moment and said softly, “I’ve already asked someone to send a message back just now. If nothing goes wrong, Big Brother will pick us up at noon.’

‘Will it be too much trouble for Big Brother?”

‘Silly girl, Big Brother is family.” Shen Yao gently tapped the tip of her nose and said gently, ‘Besides, if we continue to stay in the restaurant, we’ll really trouble others.

Ji Zhao nodded silently. ‘That’s right. What you said makes sense.”

As expected, after Eldest Brother Shen received his third brother’s message, he immediately got into the carriage and returned to the city.

When Eldest Brother Shen saw the wound on Ji Zhao’s face, he was furious!

‘Third Sister-in-law, what’s going on? Who bullied you? Tell Big Brother! Big Brother will definitely seek justice for you!” Eldest Brother Shen said agitatedly!

‘Eldest Brother, calm down first.” Shen Yao silently handed him a cup of hot ginger tea and explained the entire matter concisely.

‘Ji Huai again? Why is he haunting us? Third Brother, is the person behind Ji Huai really after you?” Eldest Brother Shen threw out a few questions in a row.

‘Big Brother, let’s go back to the pastry shop first?” Shen Yao said softly.

‘Yes, yes, yes. Look at me, I’m forgetful!”

When Qin Minghong finished dealing with Ji Huai’s matters and came to the restaurant again, he found that Ji Zhao had already left. On the counter of the restaurant was a piece of paper.

The handwriting on it was very delicate.

Thank you, Brother Qin!

Qin Minghong raised his eyebrows silently. He carefully folded the piece of paper and put it in his pocket. Then, he rushed straight to Shen Ji Pastry Shop.

At that moment, at the Shen Ji Pastry Shop.

Ji Zhao came to the kitchen and was about to cook herself.

However, Shen Yao stopped her.

‘Ah Tao, go back to your room and rest,” Shen Yao said softly. “I’ll make lunch.” ‘But..

Looking into Shen Yao’s dark and deep eyes, Ji Zhao could only nod obediently.

When it was almost time, Shen Yao finished preparing lunch.

In front of Ji Zhao was a bowl of fragrant chicken soup noodles.

There was also a golden fried egg lying on it.

’11t smells so good!” Ji Zhao could not help but swallow her saliva. She looked at Shen Yao in surprise. ‘But how do you know how to make hand-pulled noodles?”

“I learned it from you.’

‘You learned it from me?” Ji Zhao raised her eyebrows in confusion.

“When I was helping to burn firewood in the kitchen at home, I often looked at you.”

Ji Zhao lowered her eyes shyly , and the tips of her ears unknowingly turned red.

‘Do you like me that much? Even when I’m cooking, you keep staring at me?”

‘Yes.” Shen Yao nodded frankly.

Facing his calmness, Ji Zhao was at a loss.

‘Shen Yao, why… do you like me?”

Ever since they confirmed their feelings for each other, Ji Zhao could not help but think—

Why did Shen Yao fall for her? When did he fall for her?

‘Ah Tao, do you still remember when you were seven years old…” Shen Yao smiled faintly. Just as he was about to tell her about the past, he heard Eldest Brother Shen’s shout outside the door.

‘Ah Tao, Third Brother, Young Master Qin is here!”

Qin Minghong greeted Eldest Brother Shen with a smile and handed him all the medicinal herbs he had brought.

“This?”

“It’s for Ah Tao,” Qin Minghong said with a magnanimous smile. “Where’s Ah Tao? Are her injuries better?”

‘Brother Qin, are you looking for me?” Ji Zhao walked to the front hall and smiled.

‘Yes.” Qin Minghong stared at her face seriously. Just as he was in a daze— Shen Yao, who was standing beside Ji Zhao, deliberately coughed twice.

Only then did Qin Minghong retract his gaze and look at Ji Zhao with a faint smile. “Ah Tao, the wound on your face seems to have healed a lot?”

‘Yes.” Ji Zhao nodded gently. “Fortunately, Shen Yao cooked an egg for me and wrapped it in gauze. Then, he rolled it on my face. It’s very effective in reducing the swelling!”

“What about the wound on your shoulder? Does it still hurt? Do you want me to get someone to invite a doctor over?

‘There’s really no need! The ointment prescribed by the doctor was very good. I feel that it doesn’t hurt much anymore,” Ji Zhao said with a smile. “Look at me. I’m only talking. Brother Qin, please sit down.”

Qin Minghong did not stand on ceremony and sat opposite Ji Zhao. Then, his gaze landed on Shen Yao’s face. “Ji Huai’s matter is done as you wish.’

‘Thanks a lot.’

‘Ah Tao, why didn’t you stay in the restaurant for a few more days?” Qin Minghong took a sip of tea and went straight to the point.

‘Brother Qin, I don’t want to trouble you anymore.” Ji Zhao smiled and explained seriously.

Qin Minghong did not say anything. Instead, he sighed.

‘Ah Tao, you’re always so distant from me.”

Ji Zhao smiled.

“Forget it. Since you don’t want to continue staying in the restaurant, I can’t force you.” Qin Minghong laughed bitterly. “After all, I’m not qualified.”

‘Brother Qin, you..

‘Ah Tao, if you’re free tomorrow, bring your brother and Shen Yao to my house to meet Master Song.” Qin Minghong smiled and changed the topic.

‘Master Song?” Shen Yao, who had been pursing his lips silently, finally spoke..
