Chapter 81 Lost in love

“I can just wash the yam. I’m afraid you might be allergic.”

“Leave me alone with the onions, they will burn your eyes.”

“Wait for me to cut the green peppers. This one is too spicy. Your skin is tender and your hands will hurt.”

Zuo Ning looked at the tall figure busy in the kitchen and couldn’t help but want to laugh.It was clearly agreed that she would be the one to do it, but she was not allowed to do this or touch that. She actually came to visit and study.

“Then should I cut the garlic and ginger? Do they have to be cut into shreds?”

“Well, don’t be too careful. Be careful with the knife and don’t cut your hand.”

Zuo Ning felt that he was being treated like a primary school student.Why don’t you just cut some vegetables?What’s so difficult?

The kitchen was very wide. In order not to hinder Gao Xia, Zuo Ning deliberately moved to the side. Unexpectedly, his feet were slippery due to the water. She stumbled and took two steps back. Her elbow happened to press on a warm pot. The soup she had stewed in the afternoon fell directly from the table and spilled all over her.

Gao Xia’s face changed drastically. He threw away the knife in his hand and ran over. He hurriedly wiped her skirt with a tissue: “Are you burned? Does it hurt? Do you want to go to the hospital?”

The legs were still warm. Zuo Ning was stunned for a moment before he realized what he was doing. He shook his head and said, “It’s not hot. The soup has cooled down a lot.”

She really wasn’t burned, and the temperature certainly couldn’t hurt her, but she felt a little embarrassed. After all, just now she was complaining in her mind that she was not a primary school student, but now she was careless and made a mess in the kitchen.

After hearing his answer, Gao Xia breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at her ankle: “It’s still wrapped with medicine, I’m afraid it’s dirty.”

“It’s okay. Anyway, I should go back to the hospital tomorrow to change the dressing. Let’s remove it today.” Zuo Ning looked down at his sticky and oily skirt and shoes, and couldn’t help but frown, “Can I borrow your bathroom?”

Gao Xia helped her out of the kitchen, then went to get his pajamas and a clean towel and handed them to her: “Wear this first after taking a shower. The ones I haven’t worn have already been washed. Your clothes can be dried after a while, and the oil stains should be washed off as soon as they are on them.”

Zuo Ning nodded, his face a little red, and suddenly felt like a primary school student who had made a mistake.

Gao Xia chuckled: “It’s okay. The kitchen is easy to clean. Just don’t get burned.”

After cleaning the kitchen floor, Gao Xia washed his hands and prepared to continue chopping vegetables, when a loud ringing sound came from the living room.

It was Zuo Ning’s cell phone that was ringing. He didn’t know what to do, so he walked to the bathroom door and asked, “I have your phone number. The caller ID is Sister Yirou. Do you want to answer it for you?”

After being discharged from the hospital, Zuo Ning also talked to Fang Yirou on the phone. The other party asked about the recovery of her ankle, but she didn’t think much about it: “You can pick it up for me. Just tell me that I will go back to the hospital to change the dressing tomorrow.”

Gao Xia answered the call and said politely: “Hello.”

Fang Yirou over there was slightly stunned, but also smiled and said, “Hello, I’m looking for Zuo Ning.”

“I’m sorry, she’s taking a bath…” Before the word “bath” was completely uttered, Gao Xia realized that such a statement seemed too ambiguous, and quickly changed his words, “It’s not convenient for her to answer the phone now. She said she will go back to the hospital tomorrow to change her dressing. Is there anything you want me to tell her? Or can I ask her to call you back later?”

“It’s okay, no need. I just want to say Happy Mid-Autumn Festival to her. Since it’s inconvenient for her, I’ll tell her on WeChat. Thank you.”

After hanging up the phone, Fang Yirou looked at Fang Jinglun beside her with a worried expression.

She had turned on the speakerphone just now, and her brother had obviously heard all the male voices inside, especially the sentence “she is taking a shower”, which really revealed too much information.

After a pause, she still spoke: “I can only confirm that this voice does not belong to that cold man.”

Fang Jinglun nodded: “I know.”

Gao Xia put down her phone and went back to the kitchen to get busy, but within a few minutes, Zuo Ning’s phone rang again.

This time it was an unfamiliar number, so he went to the bathroom door and asked. Zuo Ning said it might be an advertisement, but he didn’t dare to miss it, so he asked Gao Xia to pick it up.

“Hello.”

“Eh? Why does the voice sound familiar?” A little girl’s confused voice came over there, “Did I dial the wrong number? Is this Sister Zuo Ning’s number?”

Gao Xia also felt that the other party’s voice was familiar, but couldn’t remember who it was: “It’s her call. It’s not convenient for her to answer it now. Is there something wrong? Can I tell you?”

“Oh my God!” The other side exclaimed, “You are Brother Gao Xia! Why is Brother Gao Xia you?”

“Are you…” Gao Xia was stunned for a moment before saying uncertainly, “Wen Nianqing?”

“It’s me, brother Gao Xia! I added sister Zuo Ning’s WeChat message, but she never agreed. I couldn’t wait and wanted to call her and tell her. Why was it you who answered the phone? You…are you with her now?”

“Well, let me tell her for you later.”

“Okay, thank you, Brother Gao Xia.”

After hanging up the phone, Gao Xia specially saved the number for Zuo Ning and marked it with his name.

But Wen Nianqing over there was feeling a little heavy and depressed.

Wen Kaian asked with concern: “What’s wrong?”

“Brother, I’m heartbroken.” Wen Nianqing pouted aggrievedly, “Brother Gao Xia has a girlfriend.”

After hearing this, Wen Kai’an chuckled: “You are still underage, why are you missing love? You are just too young to distinguish between chasing stars and being in love.”

Wen Nianqing refused to accept it and looked at him angrily: “I will be eighteen years old soon, I’m not too young!”

“But your brother Gao Xia will be twenty-six soon. You are eight years apart and you are not in the same circle. Do you think there will be consequences? You don’t know how messy the entertainment industry is? I’m letting you see him now because I want you to see his world clearly and stop those petty thoughts. Do you understand? And now that he has a girlfriend, you don’t have to think too much about it. Maybe he and she are a good match and love each other, and they will get married soon?”

Wen Nianqing thought carefully for a while before murmuring: “He and Sister Zuo Ning are indeed a good match.”

Wen Kaian’s hand on the chair tightened: “Who are you talking about?”

“Sister Zuo Ning, I just called her, and it was brother Gao Xia who picked up the phone. We are celebrating the holidays together.”

Wen Nianqing held her chin in her hands, with a troubled look on her face, “Brother, my mood is so complicated right now. On the one hand, I feel that the two people I like just happen to be together, and I should be happy for them, but on the other hand, I feel a little jealous of Sister Zuo Ning. Am I bad?”

Wen Kaian still maintained the same sitting posture just now, and didn’t hear what she said at all.But the hickeys of different shades on the back of Zuo Ning’s slender and fair neck when he went to visit the class the day before yesterday appeared in his mind unconsciously.

So, is that person Gao Xia?Zuo Ning’s reaction that day seemed to be very concerned about him. Are they together?

Mother Wen came out of the kitchen carrying dishes, and what she saw was a pair of children who were as if they had been petrified.

“I said, why are you all sitting still? It’s rare for me to go home and cook a meal, so disrespectful? Go wash your hands and eat.”

Wen Nianqing glanced at her mother listlessly: “I’m heartbroken and have no appetite.”

Wen’s mother didn’t take her daughter’s words seriously at all. After all, this star-chasing fan always complained about falling out of love. On the contrary, she was more concerned about her son who was in a somewhat abnormal state: “What’s wrong with you, An An? You’re not falling out of love too, are you?”

Wen Kai’an recovered from his daze, glanced at his sister beside him, and said calmly: “She is broken up in love, and I will be sad with her.”
