Chapter 1224: Chapter 1239: With You
"Alright then," An Qi’Er showed a blissful smile.
Lin Mu and An Qi’Er went to the kitchen together, Lin Mu’s task was to pick and wash the vegetables, while An Qi’Er’s task was to chop and cook them.
It must be said, An Qi’Er’s cooking skills were indeed impressive; before long, the aroma of the food had spread throughout the kitchen, making one eager to lift the lid of the pot for a hearty meal!
Lin Mu stood up, reached out and wrapped his arm around An Qi’Er’s slender waist, "An Qi’Er, the dishes you cooked smell so good! Just as enticing as you!"
"Uh, you want to eat me, huh?" An Qi’Er responded with a sweet smile,
"Alright then, I’ll save you for later tonight, for now, my stomach tells me it only wants your cooked dishes because they smell so wonderful!"
"Of course, my cooking is top-notch. If female chefs were in vogue, I’d have become one." An Qi’Er smiled and said.
"Hey, you can be my personal chef. Finding such a capable wife like you is a blessing for life!" Lin Mu joked.
An Qi’Er turned and kissed Lin Mu, who responded passionately, and they embraced and kissed in the kitchen. But it was just for a moment before An Qi’Er pulled away and exclaimed anxiously, "Oh no, the dish is overcooked!"
"It’s fine, the meat is a bit more done, which makes it even more tender and easier to eat!" An Qi’Er said, "Brother Lin, let’s eat, the dishes are ready."
"Alright, let’s go." Lin Mu nodded.
Lin Mu and An Qi’Er brought the cooked dishes out; An Qi’Er had prepared four dishes and a soup. Each dish was perfect in color, aroma, and taste—simply impeccable! After serving the dishes, Lin Mu opened a bottle of red wine and poured a glass for An Qi’Er.
"Come on, An Qi’Er, let’s have a drink," Lin Mu smiled and said.
An Qi’Er nodded, picked up the wine glass happily, clinked it with Lin Mu’s and took a sip of the red wine.
"Brother Lin, I feel so happy right now. I truly wish we could always live happily like this," An Qi’Er said, looking at Lin Mu.
"Sure, I’ll come and be with you often. You cook, and I’ll be your assistant, how does that sound?" Lin Mu smiled and said. Honestly, Lin Mu also enjoyed this kind of life, like a return to the countryside, a rare peace and calm.
"That’s settled, then." An Qi’Er smiled and said.
"Absolutely!" Lin Mu promised.
"Let’s eat now; it’ll taste better before it gets cold. Come, try my cooking!" An Qi’Er said, then served Lin Mu a cola chicken wing, which was Lin Mu’s favorite dish!
Lin Mu grinned and started eating with relish.
"How is it? Tasty?" An Qi’Er asked with a look of anticipation.
Lin Mu gave a thumbs up, eating while praising, "The taste is simply unbeatable!"
"Eat more if you like it!" An Qi’Er seemed very pleased with Lin Mu’s compliment.
"Come, you eat too!" Lin Mu served An Qi’Er a scallion egg, which was her favorite.
The two drank wine and ate together; after the meal, An Qi’Er’s face was flushed from the alcohol, her two large, enchanting eyes glistening, looking very enchanting.
"Brother Lin... I love you..." An Qi’Er said with a face full of affection as she looked at Lin Mu.
Lin Mu nodded, put his arm around An Qi’Er’s shoulder, and softly said, "I love you too."
After speaking, Lin Mu bowed his head and kissed An Qi’Er’s cherry lips; the aroma was mesmerizing. An Qi’Er glanced at Lin Mu and then leaned in for another kiss before the two sat together and kissed for a long time before reluctantly parting.
Afterwards, An Qi’Er snuggled against Lin Mu’s shoulder; perhaps it was the alcohol, but An Qi’Er felt especially impulsive tonight, with a sense of wanting to let go completely, but since it was the first time, there was a bit of fear.
After thinking for a while, An Qi’Er softly said, "Brother Lin, would you stay here tonight and keep me company, alright?"
"Mm, I’ll stay with you tonight." Lin Mu nodded.
"You’re so good..." An Qi’Er looked at Lin Mu tenderly. With the stimulation of alcohol, she leaned in for another kiss with Lin Mu.
All these years, An Qi’Er had relied on herself step by step until now, without any dependence, but with Lin Mu at this moment, she suddenly felt like she wanted to rely on a man, and this feeling made her feel incredibly secure, a kind of security she had never felt before.
"Brother Lin, I’m hungry, let’s go downstairs and have something to eat together," An Qi’Er said.
"Mm, I’m hungry too, let’s go." Lin Mu patted his stomach, also feeling hungry; you know, bed activities are heavy physical labor that consumes a lot of energy!
The two went downstairs together to a nearby restaurant outside the neighborhood to eat something; the restaurant wasn’t big but very clean, so eating there was reassuring. Lin Mu ordered a few dishes and then started eating ravenously.
An Qi’Er also seemed hungry, eating a lot and quickly, looking a bit less ladylike.
"Brother Lin, where shall we go to have fun after dinner?" An Qi’Er asked, today is Sunday, so she was resting.
"Where do you want to go? I’ll accompany you!" Lin Mu was idle anyway, and accompanying a beautiful woman, no matter where was fine, though Lin Mu hoped not to be dragged shopping, as that kind of chore was really so torturous for humans!
