Chapter 119 119

“Don’t say it so bluntly.”

But your words are equivalent to saying nothing. Who can’t understand your true meaning?

When Yu Shu said this, it caused Zhou Nong Yun and the others to look towards Yan Jin.

They couldn’t manage other people’s husbands. But they should at least be able to manage the Wife-master herself, right?

Receiving Zhou Nong Yun and the others’ glances, Yan Jin spoke up, “It’s still better to be direct, lest they don’t understand and keep asking you to cook.”

“Their families aren’t without cooks, so why should my person have to cook for them?”

Zhou Nong Yun and the others silently shifted their gazes elsewhere. Yan Jin’s words were better left unsaid.

Although they knew Yan Jin doted on her husband, they didn’t expect her to dote on him this much.

“Sigh, we know you lovebirds are affectionate. We two single ladies won’t disturb you anymore.” Zhou Nong Yun, Tu Zi Xuan waved at Yan Jin, “See you later, good luck in the next round!”

The round-faced examinee beside them, upon hearing Yan Jin and Zhou Nong Yun’s conversation, also knew that she couldn’t get the recipe from her. She clutched her chest and walked towards her family, turning back every three steps.

Damn it! If she knew how to roast meat, she would definitely bring ingredients and tools next time to see whose dish was more fragrant!

“Is it not very good for us to do this?” Yu Shu said, “They are your friends after all. If you could form a good connection with examinees in the same hall, it might help your future career.”

Yan Jin said unhurriedly, “If it was before the exam, then forming a good connection would be fine. But now that the exam has started, if we gave them the recipe and they got an upset stomach from being unaccustomed to it, we would end up doing more harm than good.”

“No wonder you refused just now, Yan Jin.” Yu Shu had a sudden realization. “So it was for fear of doing more harm than good. I thought you were just distressed for me, reluctant to let me cook.”

Yan Jin looked at Yu Shu oddly, making him uncomfortable enough to start fiddling with his hair, thinking his appearance was inappropriate. “Yan Jin, is there something improper about me?”

“There’s nothing improper about you.” Yan Jin shook her head and said, “It’s just that you misunderstood, Yu Shu.”

Yu Shu let out an “ah”, “The less trouble the better, isn’t that what I was thinking?”

“No.” Yan Jin gripped Yu Shu’s hand tightly. “The reason I didn’t let you reveal it, of course, is because I felt distressed for you.”

[I knew it! Yan Jin not letting Yu Shu cook is purely out of concern for him!] [Is what you said before the same as the reality? Yu Shu doesn’t need to cook, he only needs to reveal the recipe.] [The key point isn’t the recipe or cooking at all. Yan Jin’s possessiveness is acting up, she doesn’t want others to taste Yu Shu’s cooking skills.]

…

[Looking at it over and over, Yan Jin’s possessiveness acting up is the most logical explanation.] [Yan Jin is actually getting jealous, wow, how amazing, let me take another look.]

Yu Shu’s heart blossomed with fireworks, the corners of his mouth curving upwards uncontrollably. “I’m not a little kid. How does telling someone a recipe equate to you feeling distressed for me?”

“It distresses me to see it.” Yan Jin said softly, “You were busy all day today, barely closing your eyes. How could I bear to let you expend more energy to interact with others?”

Right now, Yu Shu was like a little bunny rolling in a field full of carrots, joy emanating from the corners of his eyes and brows. “Yan Jin, you’re feeding me love potion again.”

Yan Jin’s eyes also curved into crescents. “So, will you drink this bowl of love potion, Yu Shu? If you won’t, I’ll go feed it to someone else.”

“Don’t you dare feed it to anyone else!” Yu Shu glared at her. “Who else do you want to feed love potion to besides me?”

Actually, ever since Yan Jin left the exam hall, Yu Shu had been very nervous, not knowing how she did on the exam.

But for fear of affecting Yan Jin’s subsequent exams, Yu Shu held back from asking on the way home.

After getting home, he prepared food for Yan Jin to distract himself and not make her worry.

Yan Jin took out a small box from her room and went to find Yu Shu. “After much thought, besides feeding you love potion, Yu Shu, I want to feed it to one other person too.”

[Oh ho, Yan Jin, you’re teasing Yu Shu again.] [Quickly bring the little stools, let’s watch the lovebirds flirt.]

The bullet screen comments knew Yan Jin was teasing Yu Shu, but not being the parties involved, they couldn’t empathize.

Hearing this, Yu Shu glanced at Yan Jin obliquely, seemingly trying to discern the truth of her words. “You want to feed love potion to a second person?”

Even though Yu Shu had already guessed that Yan Jin was once again finding a roundabout way to tease him, he still felt unhappy as he should.

He wasn’t a three-year-old kid anymore, how could she not know that matters of the heart shouldn’t be joked about?
