Destined with You-Chapter 1153 - 1158: Quirky Confession 14

"First, pour oil into the pan."

Beiming Han picked up the oil bottle and began to pour.

"That’s enough, stop!"

"..."

"The fish needs to be coated with flour." Gu Qingxin took some flour and smeared it all over the fish.

"Why do we need to put flour on it?" Beiming Han was confused.

"Because if you don’t, the fish skin will get fried off." Gu Qingxin gave this reason offhandedly.

Beiming Han, "..."

Is that so? It seems like the young lass doesn’t really get it.

"The heat is too high; turn it down a little."

Beiming Han obediently turned down the fire. Gu Qingxin couldn’t help but smile, watching him comply so well, he actually had an open mind to learn.

"Put the fish in and fry both sides a little."

Beiming Han put the fish in, occasionally looking at her, asking with his eyes what to do next.

"Flip it over to check the color. When it turns golden, flip it again...Damn, I forgot the seasoning. Let me prepare it."

Gu Qingxin was busy looking for scallions, ginger, and garlic, chopping, smashing, and mixing all the seasonings together.

Beiming Han watched as Gu Qingxin bit on the soy sauce bottle cap, unable to suppress the frustrated veins popping on his forehead.

...

Upstairs.

"Bai Qianqian, I’m asking you now, what’s going on in your mind? Do you even slightly like me?" Bai Jingqing demanded the truth today.

"I don’t know, don’t ask me." Bai Qianqian shook her head. She’s clueless, she really didn’t know. ƒгeewebnovёl.com

"Alright, I’ll ask differently, if Rui Qing wasn’t there, would you be with me?" Bai Jingqing understood, this affair had indeed brought great pressure to her, it’s understandable she felt scared and wanted to withdraw.

"..."

"Silence equates to consent, meaning, if Rui Qing wasn’t involved, you’d say yes to me, to us! Therefore, you must like me!"

"I..."

"Would you want to be with someone you don’t like?"

"Rui Qing is a living person, we can’t be so selfish, we must consider his feelings." Bai Qianqian’s eyes reddened.

"..."

Bai Jingqing pulled her into his arms, resting her head on his chest, "I know this path is hard, but I still hope we can hold hands and walk it together! Sweetie, let’s not think about anything now; let’s see what delicious food Qingxin and my brother have prepared."

...

The fish and seafood are already in the pot, it’s almost time for them to be cooked, Gu Qingxin now instructs Beiming Han on how to chop and stir-fry vegetables.

When Bai Qianqian descended the staircase, seeing how well Gu Qingxin and Beiming Han were getting along, she couldn’t help but feel envious.

Looking at the man walking in front of her, her feelings were extremely complex.

Perhaps she was too absorbed in her thoughts, Bai Qianqian lost her footing on the second-last stair. Leaning forward, she bumped into Bai Jingqing’s back.

Bai Jingqing, "..."

This bump made his wound from yesterday’s fight ache again, but he remained stationary. To keep her balance, Bai Qianqian wrapped her arms around him.

Bai Jingqing turned around. Their lips were only a hair’s breadth apart. Neither Bai Jingqing nor Bai Qianqian moved.

They both remained standing in that pose.

Gu Qingxin, holding a spatula, and Beiming Han, gripping a cleaver, stared at the pair at the stairwell.

Gu Qingxin suddenly smelled something burning, she took a deep breath in through her nose, and asked, "What’s that smell?"
