47 Some Sweet Hours (2/2)

”It's pretty sweet”, he commented and smiled smugly, focusing on his work again.

Su Yan's head felt blank. His thoughts only caught up when he heard the two girls in the row behind them giggle. He turned around to see what was so funny but finally noticed that they were looking at him and Nie Chang.

Su Yan blushed and turned to the front again. He mechanically grabbed Nie Chang's sleeve. ”They … They think we're …” He stopped. Oh god! He had been misunderstood once again!

Nie Chang just smiled. ”What's so bad about it?”

”What do you mean 'What's so bad about it'? They must think we're a couple now! How could you just do something like that?!”

”They thought that anyway.”

”Huh?”

Nie Chang lifted his brows. ”Aren't they those rotten women we saw in the park before? You remember? They saw us hugging and were talking about that couple and you were looking around to find out which one they were talking about until I told you that they meant us.” He had stopped with grinding the beans and instead hugged Su Yan to his chest.

The girls could hardly conceal their squeals. They really were lucky to have come here!

The guy next to them wasn't as happy, though. ”Heh, you two, this is a course to learn how to make chocolate. Don't disgust everyone with your shameless behavior!”

Su Yan felt indeed that Nie Chang was pretty shameless. He grabbed his hand and tried to force it down. Nie Chang indeed dropped one arm but only used it to pull the processed ingredients over.

”Ah Yan, if you think it's taking too long, then how about you start working with that? I'll continue doing it this way. We've paid for two people anyway, it shouldn't be a problem to take a bit more of the ingredients.”

”Mn!” Su Yan immediately jumped in front of the stove, dragged a pot over and started to melt the cocoa butter like he had seen the girl next to them do it. He continued to look at Nie Chang, though. After all, there was nothing exciting about watching some butter melt.

Observing his friend was way better. Somehow, Nie Chang had already managed to separate all the husks and was now grinding the beans. It seemed pretty hard. He had gritted his teeth and the muscles in his arms were bulging. Actually … despite the fact that he was working with technological devices every day he was really fit.

Su Yan watched a while and finally couldn't bear it any longer. He reached out and grabbed Nie Chang's arm. His fingers stroked up and down. Ah, this really felt pretty good …

Nie Chang froze. He somehow felt like he had gotten himself into trouble. After all, he couldn't run away this time, regardless of how Su Yan might feel him up. He hurriedly looked down and nearly gave a sigh of relief. It hadn't gotten to the point yet where he was too excited. He could only hope that Su Yan would restrain himself soon.
