Chapter 130 - Special Spice (1/2)

Li Zhiqiang stared at her. Her expressions were very serious. Whatever she had said seemed to hold importance in his heart.

”Whether I appeared or not, Jing Lihua if I knew you were in trouble, I would have abandoned everything just to be by your side.” His eyes held unparalleled sincerity as he replied to her.

Jing Lihua continued to stare into his eyes. It was not until the white cat jumped out of her arms, suffocated with the heavy coat that they both broke out of the trance.

The cat landed on the ground and mewed angrily at Li Zhiqiang.

Looking at that Jing Lihua laughed. ”We totally forgot about her.” She went on her knees and patted the cat. ”Be good. And you will get the treat I promised.”

An old uncle walked up to them gleefully. ”Xiao Jing? Is it really you? How long had been since you visited me? I almost thought you forgot about this old uncle.” The man looked like he had come from a village. His manner and way of speech were simple and straightforward. He didn't even know who Jing Lihua was. He simply knew her as Xiao Jing. ”You have even brought a guy. Now, who might this be. Your boyfriend?” He teased her in his own manner.

Jing Lihua smiled: ”Uncle we are here for a competition. You know the same with my other friends.”

”I get it! I will bring two servings right away!”

Jing Lihua guided Li Zhiqiang to sit in the open air. ”You haven't ever been to a place like this before, have you?” She challenged.

”I haven't. But being with you makes it worth it.” He winked at Jing Lihua. Meanwhile, Jing Lihua put the cat's treat in the bowl. The cat jumped around and feasted on it gleefully.

”You are going to spoil her.”

”Are you being jealous of her again?” Jing Lihua shook her head.

”How can you imagine I would be jealous of a pet? So ridiculous.” Li Zhiqiang would never admit.

”Whatever you say.” Jing Lihua prepared herself as the two servings of uncle's special noodles were brought in. She opened her chopsticks and shot Li Ziqiang a challenging stare.

Li Zhiqiang was confident and returned her stare with his smug face. However, this time when Li Zhiqiang put the first thing in his mouth, his tongue burned and he quickly spat it out. ”How is anyone supposed to eat this?”

”Don't overreact. Uncle uses a special type of spice he brings from his village. It is delicious.” Jing Lihua already looked smug. ”And of course, I can hold this one better than anyone.” Jing Lihua had an obvious advantage here. She had a lot of practice with Zhao Liying and Mo Liang before.

”You tricked me.” Li Zhiqiang couldn't believe his Jing Jing could be this cunning and cruel. Jing Lihua grinned at him.

”Does that mean you give up already?”
