Chapter 764: Chapter 764: The Universe’s Jealous King Is Online Again
Master Tuantuan heard these words and slightly curled his lips.
So Huo Tingzun has come.
His gaze passed through the bamboo curtain of the kitchen, looking at the three people exchanging pleasantries at the courtyard gate.
Hmm, a certain little woman borrowed Huo Tingzun’s name as a cover. Will her cover be blown today in public?
It seems obvious.
Xiao Bailu wouldn’t let Huo Tingzun reveal his real name even if she were beaten to death.
The president of the Huo Family in the Imperial City, a top lawyer, a noble son, she lured him to the countryside. She definitely doesn’t want to become a news headline.
Moreover, she doesn’t want Huo Tingzun to know about her previous matters in the countryside.
So, the less introduced, the better.
She pursed her lips, "Miss Qingxin, I’m here today to trouble you with something..."
Who knew, before she finished speaking, Qin Xin already replied enthusiastically, "It must be that Big Cousin is feeling unwell, right? I could tell. Has he caught the Shadow Syndrome? It’s quite obvious, you see his ears are red from the fever."
Huo Tingzun: "..."
That’s due to anger, anger caused by Xiao Bailu, that silly woman, okay?
Introducing him to others without giving his name? Does he not deserve a name?
Qin Xin and Xiao Bailu chatted while holding hands for quite a while.
Qin Xin generously gave Xiao Bailu a large basket of prepared herbs, reminded them of dietary precautions, and instructed them to practice the Eight Pieces of Brocade with the "Seven Immortals."
"The rest is just to rest well, and don’t experience large emotional swings. Balancing emotions is key to recovery," Qin Xin repeatedly advised.
Thinking for a moment, she shouted towards the kitchen, "Master Tuantuan, are the hollow chive pancakes done? Take some for the neighbors to try, ah.
From the kitchen came a man’s muffled voice: "Not made."
Heh, they’ve been calling him "Big Cousin" alongside Xiao Bailu, yet still want "Big Cousin" to eat the chive pancakes for free?
No way.
The man covered the two made pancakes with a steamer cover.
Beneath the mask, his face was full of discontent.
In the courtyard, Qin Xin helplessly said to the two guests, "I’m really sorry. You came all this way, I should give you a gift. Maybe next time, my master’s cooking is excellent. I’ll invite you for a meal."
Xiao Bailu squinted her eyes, "Alright. I haven’t experienced Master Tu’s culinary skills yet. We won’t intrude today; I’ll take Big Cousin home to quickly take his medicine."
Qin Xin: "Sure. Bring Big Cousin next time. I can help check his pulse and aid his recovery. Hmm, your Big Cousin looks healthy, quite strong, he should recover quickly. Don’t worry."
Xiao Bailu’s ears are inexplicably red.
She’s not worried.
Does it really show that obviously that she’s worried?
Qin Xin saw the two off.
It’s rare to meet acquaintances from the Imperial City, which made her think of her distant friends like Ao Xinghao and others, causing her to feel a bit sentimental.
Turning around, she saw Master Tuantuan bringing out the hollow chive pancakes from the kitchen.
She sniffed her nose and took a bite.
Suddenly realizing, "Master, didn’t you say you weren’t making any?"
The man, with no change in expression, and in all seriousness: "I hadn’t made them then. Now they’re made."
Qin Xin: "...??"
So, chive pancakes can be grilled in seconds? Really?
＝＝
In the next courtyard.
As soon as Xiao Bailu entered, she started preparing to boil the medicine.
Busy following Qin Xin’s instructions, she smoked mugwort to disinfect and increased the room temperature...
After all that, she found Huo Tingzun standing motionlessly at the doorway.
She couldn’t help but pull him, "Why aren’t you lying on the bed for a while?"
Huo Tingzun fixed his gaze on her, "What is the relationship between you and that Master Tu next door?"
[Master Yun: Goodnight kiss! Both vinegar kings are jealous at the same time. See you tomorrow night, cuties!]
