Chapter 185: Sweet Soup for Relieving Heat
When Cheng Yuntao heard these touching love words, ripples appeared in her heart and her eyes became unconsciously full of charm.
Looking up at Jiang Yu, I saw his sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. Beneath his high nose bridge, his thin lips were slightly raised, with a hint of gentleness. Although his originally deep eyes were covered with a layer of mist, it did not detract from the charm that emanated from him, but instead added a bit of deep affection and persistence.
The scattered sunlight fell on the ends of his hair, outlining a circle of golden halo for him, making him look extraordinarily handsome.
Although Jiang Yu could not see, his five senses were still sharp and he caught the unique faint fragrance on Cheng Yuntao's body. The fragrance came gently with the breeze and got closer and closer.
A familiar scent surrounded him, and the air around him seemed to become warm and ambiguous.
The next second, he felt a gentle touch on his lips, as if it was there and not there, like the trembling of a newly opened flower in spring, with a hint of sweetness and timidity, which made his heart tighten suddenly.
He was stunned at first, his mind went blank for a moment, but he quickly reacted, leaned forward slightly, and deepened the kiss with a bit of eagerness and attachment.
All the sounds around us gradually faded away, and our warm breaths intertwined together, making it impossible to tell you from me.
At first, Jiang Yu's palm was against the silk shirt on Cheng Yuntao's back. Gradually, his palm slid down along the graceful curve, and finally firmly grasped her slender waist.
Cheng Yuntao felt dizzy, and the next moment, she was gently picked up by Jiang Yu. She subconsciously placed her hands on Jiang Yu's shoulders, and she looked a little weak.
Neither of them knew how to kiss very well, and their immaturity and panic were fully revealed in this kiss.
Cheng Yuntao only felt that her breathing became more and more rapid, as if all the air in her chest was sucked out, and she was having trouble breathing.
Jiang Yu was keenly aware of this, and controlled himself, putting distance between them.
Cheng Yuntao breathed slightly and looked down at Jiang Yu condescendingly.
At this moment, Jiang Yu's eyes were slightly closed, his long eyelashes were trembling, his thin lips were red and swollen, and he looked a little confused and infatuated. His usual free and unrestrained character was completely gone, leaving only the deep affection filled with love.
The heartbeat is rapid, like the sound of heavy rain hitting the window, knocking on the heart; the breathing is slightly panting, just like the gentle breeze blowing through the curtains, stirring up the emotions.
The two blend together, and in this small space of heaven and earth, the lingering sound continues.
Just then, a burst of hurried footsteps was heard outside the courtyard, accompanied by the laughter of children. Cheng Jingzhu and Shaobing chased each other all the way, sweating profusely, and rushed into the yard in a hurry.
"Sister!" Cheng Jingzhu yelled at the top of her lungs, "We're so thirsty! We really want some mung bean soup!"
The ambiguous atmosphere that was originally as thick as honey was instantly dispersed like light smoke by the sudden noise.
Cheng Yuntao's eyes were in a panic. She hurriedly distanced herself from Jiang Yu. She subconsciously tidied her slightly messy hair and said, "I... will go make mung bean soup first."
Jiang Yu's chest was still heaving, and he smiled helplessly, "Go ahead, I think I need a bowl of soup to cool down."
Cheng Yuntao pursed her lips and as soon as she stepped out of the door, she ran into Cheng Jingzhu and Shaobing who were looking for her.
Cheng Jingzhu's bright eyes spun around, staring at her intently: "Sister, why did you come out of Brother Jiang Yu's room? And your face is so red."
Cheng Yuntao hurriedly explained, "I... I'm here to bring him some medicine. It's getting hot and stuffy, and the room's not ventilated, so I'm suffocating and blushing." As if afraid they might ask more questions, she added, "I'll go make some mung bean soup. I'll call you over when it's ready."
After saying this, he left in a hurry without waiting for their response, and his back revealed a sense of fleeing in panic.
Cheng Jingzhu and Shaobing looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion. They both felt that something was not right, but after thinking about it, they really couldn't tell what was strange.
Unable to figure it out for a moment, the two scratched their heads and then continued to play happily, with their previous doubts thrown out of the window.
Jiang Yu, who was in the room, heard all the conversations clearly.
His ears instantly turned red, and his face flushed. He subconsciously raised his hand to cover his burning cheek. His fingertips gently stroked his slightly swollen lips, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised. His eyes were filled with tenderness and attachment. He was immersed in the memories just now, savoring them for a long time.
Cheng Yuntao walked into the kitchen, expertly lit the fire, poured the soaked mung beans into the pot, added an appropriate amount of water, and patiently simmered them aside. Stirring them occasionally to prevent them from sticking, the rising steam blurred her features, but couldn't hide the faint smile on her lips.
Soon, the sweet aroma of beans filled the entire kitchen. She scooped out a few bowls, let them cool for a while, and then brought them out to the yard, calling out crisply, "The mung bean soup is ready, everyone come and have some!"
Hearing the sound, everyone gathered around. Cheng Jingzhu and Shaobing ran over cheering, and couldn't wait to pick up the bowls and drink from them in big gulps.
The tender mung beans gently spread across the tongue, their delicate texture and natural sweetness. During the cooking process, the essence of the mung beans blends into the broth, making it thick yet refreshing. Every sip is smooth and refreshing. As you swallow, a cool sensation spreads from your throat throughout your body, dispelling dryness and bringing a sense of comfort from the inside out.
Jiang Yu heard the noise in the house, fumbled to stand up and wanted to go out, but before he took a few steps, he was supported by Cheng Yuntao who came hurriedly.
"Slow down, don't fall. Why are you walking around aimlessly when you can't even see clearly?"
Although Cheng Yuntao blamed him, her hands were extremely gentle as she helped him sit down steadily.
Then, she gently put a bowl of mung bean soup into Jiang Yu's hand and was about to turn around and leave when Jiang Yu grabbed her wrist.
Jiang Yu raised his head and said, "Yun Tao, please feed me. I think it will be sweeter if you feed me."
Cheng Yuntao felt helpless, but seeing how pitiful Jiang Yu looked, she couldn't refuse and had to agree to him.
She gently scooped up a spoonful of mung bean soup and handed it to Jiang Yu's mouth. Jiang Yu raised the corners of his mouth and drank it obediently. He even smacked his lips deliberately and said with a smile: "Sure enough, it's the sweetest mung bean soup."
Cheng Yuntao couldn't help laughing out loud. Jiang Yu heard her laughter and started laughing too. The two of them laughed together. The slight embarrassment caused by their intimate behavior disappeared instantly in this unrestrained laughter.
Cheng Jingzhu and Shaobing were standing outside the door. When they heard the laughter, they looked puzzled.
Cheng Jingzhu tilted his head, a puzzled look on his face. He nudged Shaobing beside him and muttered softly, "What's wrong with them? Why are they laughing so happily?"
Shaobing was also confused. He scratched his head and frowned, saying, "How should I know?"
