Chapter 312 - 520 (2/2)
Seeing that Fan Bingbing's back was towards them, Jie picked up some ingredients and placed them before her on the counter saying, "Baby, these five carrots are for you. And take these 2 onions as well. Look this empty pot is also for you. There is nothing in it... Zero."
Xu Mey creased her brows as she pushed these things away in annoyance and said, "Ah-Jie, what are you doing? Stop touching my ingredients."
While Xu Mey was scowling, Jie was brooding over her being dense. But a certain someone was finally unable to hold back her laughter and bouts of laughter rang in the huge kitchen. "Sorry!" Fan Bingbing apologized as she turned to them. "Jie, I didn't know you're such a romantic person. But you really have a dense wife. Try harder." Jie could only nod in agreement while Fan Bingbing looked at Xu Mey and knocked on her head saying, "My silly girl, he's saying, 'I love you'. How can you be so dense?"
"When did he say that? And why didn't I hear it?" Xu Mey didn't like being called dense so easily.
"Aiyoh! Look five carrots, 2 onions, and an empty pot equals to 520. Meaning I love you!" Saying that Fan Bingbing tousled her hair and walked out of the kitchen to give them some privacy not before saying, "I'll be back in five minutes."
"Ah-Jie, how can you say that before Auntie?" Xu Mey glared at him since she felt embarrassed.
"What's wrong with that? I'm telling my wife that I love her." He answered righteously.
"Then you could have said it straightforwardly. Why play with carrots?" Obviously, she wouldn't understand such indirect words.
"How would I know that my wife won't take the hint?" Seeing her huffing and puffing, he wrapped his arms around her waist from behind and propped his chin on her shoulder as he continued, "Thank you!"
"For what?" Xu Mey asked inquisitively.
"For doing all this just to make Jun feel happy." Xu Mey pressed her lips together at being caught. She thought if she played differently, her motive won't be clear but she really couldn't hide anything from him.
"Well... I have to do it... Jun Li Na is not here and I know she needs time. So while she's taking her time, I can just help my little brother. He needs to cheer up and I'm here just for that."
Xu Mey already knew that her husband was worried about his brother. Even if Jun said he's fine, it won't change the fact that he was hurt badly. Xu Mey didn't want him to cope up with everything all by himself. She needed Ye Jun to see that there was a bunch of people willing to stand by his side.
