Seeing she didn’t respond, he thought she was still angry. If she was angry, why torture her eyes by sitting and watching him?
Hearing his words, she lowered her head slightly, turned, and quietly walked to the place he had pointed.
“Okay…” her soft voice showed she wasn’t angry.
Pu Cang Jie, who had already turned to start working, stopped and looked back at her, watching for several seconds before asking: “Would you like to help me rinse these dishes?”
“Really?” Shang Ke Xin’s black eyes, originally lowered and looking at the table, suddenly lifted, happily looking at Pu Cang Jie.
“Come help if you want!” Pu Cang Jie nodded, watching her eagerly walk into the kitchen area behind the counter. His heart warmed, but his expression remained serious.
“Just remember not to use crude language. I know you meant well, but you hurt Aunt Qiu Da, didn’t you?” In fact, he had wanted to tell Aunt Qiu Da to get lost, but since Ke Xin had already cursed at her, he hadn’t said anything.
“You don’t like hearing me… I mean, hearing women use crude language?” Shang Ke Xin pouted unhappily when he brought up the matter again.
“I don’t like it from men or women, especially from you,” he reiterated, lowering his head to start washing dishes.
“But… but… I… I got so angry because of you…”
“I know, but… she insulted me. I’ll handle it myself. Help me stack these dishes.” He handed her the clean, rinsed dishes.
“I want to help you solve this!” She carefully stacked the dishes.
“Why?”
“Ah? Why?”
She continued taking clean dishes from his hands without pausing. Her delicate yet slightly heroic eyebrows furrowed as if deep in thought. After a long moment, she spoke: “This… you might find this strange, but… I feel like I’ve known you my entire life.”
As soon as the words left her mouth, she suddenly stopped. Then, her entire face blushed bright red, the shy flame spreading to her delicate ears.
Oh God! What a terrible line! Known him her whole life? How could she say something so stupid…
“Me too,” he said.
“What?!”
