Qi Yan is amazing.

Clearly using the same ingredients, the same seasonings, and the same steps.

She can do unspeakable things for you.

Think back to those days.

Shen Rao took a bite happily, then immediately got gastroenteritis and had to go to the hospital for an IV drip.

He Yu couldn't help but shiver twice.

It's too cruel.

It's totally poisoning!

Gu Qing put the tablet down, clapped his hands, and said confidently.

"I know, give me the fish."

Gu Shengge didn't doubt it and handed the fish over.

Half a minute later.

There was a loud noise in the kitchen, accompanied by chaotic screams.

'Boom—'

"Ahhh-"

"Ah! Why is it flapping its wings?"

"Go ahead and chop it!"

"I can't hold it!"

"Fuck, fuck!"

"Here they come! Here they come! Here they come!"

"Who bought the live fish? Ahhhh, it's flying!"

"Hurry up and hold it down!"

"Ah! It's slippery and smells fishy. I don't want it!"

"He Yu, come here!"

"I don't want it either. I'm afraid of Gu Er!"

"Why aren't you afraid of eating?!"

"..."

When Shen Rao and the others heard the deafening noise coming from the kitchen, they couldn't sit still and had to come over to take a look.

I saw.

In the kitchen, on the smooth ceramic floor lay a live fish struggling desperately. It was very large. The other three people were far away from it, with the fish in the middle, forming a stable triangle.

Gu Qing was holding a knife and arguing with He Yu.

Seeing Shen Rao and the others coming, he raised the kitchen knife that was shining with cold light, and the cold light reflected on half of his face.

next second.

The expressionless face turned sad.

"I can't do it, Shen Rao, I can't do it!"

His greatest strength is his awareness of current affairs.

"How about we order takeout?"

Gu Shengge rubbed his hairy arms and suggested.

"Yes, yes, order takeout."

This was the first time He Yu had entered the kitchen since he was a child, so he agreed.

For novices, it is too difficult to handle live fish right away.

At this time, Qi Yan, who had been silent, spoke again.

"Yes, how about I do it?"

"no!"

The two people who had seen Qi Yan's cooking skills shouted in unison.

Seeing their intense reactions, Qi Yan touched his nose awkwardly and turned the candy in his mouth.

Shen Rao was afraid that she would be unhappy after being rejected twice, so he glared at the two of them, then turned around and spoke to her gently.

"You don't have to do this."

As he spoke, he took her hand, narrowed his eyes, and lowered his voice.

"Aren't your hands supposed to protect me?"

"..."

Even though he was almost whispering in her ear, Qi Yan could still feel the strange gazes of the people around him.

She was really not used to it, her face felt a little hot, and she pulled her hand back awkwardly.

"I... didn't say I would cook. I can help kill the fish..."

After saying that, he turned sideways and ran into the kitchen as if escaping.

Shen Rao stood outside in a daze, recalling her slightly red cheeks in his mind. He lightly stroked the lower half of her face with his hand, and the corners of his lips, which were barely covered, rose.

Several people outside watched everything the two did together.

He Ran took the Chinese medicine that Gu Yan poured out from the thermos bucket he brought with him, chuckled and sighed.

"It's nice to be young."

"You are young, too."

"..."

She glanced sideways and met Gu Yan's serious eyes. His amber pupils were very similar to the medicine in the bowl.

A slight movement creates ripples on the soup surface, like someone's heart lake, flowing all the way into the heart.

She pursed her lips, tapped the porcelain bowl with her fingertips, then shook her head, stared at the steaming Chinese medicine soup, and spoke slowly.

"I would rather not be this young."

The words fell.

She picked up the bowl and drank the medicine of just the right temperature in one gulp. It tasted extremely bitter in her throat, and her entire throat was bitter, but she didn't even frown.

Gu Yan frowned slightly, handed over a piece of candy and said solemnly.

"Don't worry, I will cure you. The medicine is very bitter, just press it."

He Ran looked at the candy in her hand. It was the candy she loved to eat when she was in middle school...

for a long time.

She forced a smile that was more bitter than medicine and handed the candy back to him.

"Doctor Gu, I've accepted my fate. As long as I can still control it, that's fine."

She is ready to take medicine for the rest of her life.

As long as it doesn't get worse...

Gu Yan didn't take it. He put her five fingers together, holding the candy tightly, and he also held her hand tightly.

His amber eyes looked directly into hers through the lenses and he spoke word by word.

"He Ran, don't give in to your fate. Everything will be fine. It will definitely be fine."

"...Yes," He Ran paused, then smiled again, this time with no more bitterness, "It will be fine, Doctor Gu, I believe in you."

Hearing her say this, Gu Yan's brows did not relax. Just as he was about to speak again, he was interrupted by her.

"It's a good day, let's not talk about this, okay?"

There was almost a plea in her tone.

"……it is good."

Gu Yan could only agree.

kitchen.

Qi Yan picked up the fish on the ground. It didn't seem difficult to lift nearly ten kilograms of fish with one hand. She stretched out her hand to Gu Qing, who had a strange look on his face.

"Knife."

Concise and concise.

Gu Qing looked at the fish that was still struggling desperately, then looked at Qi Yan who looked calm, swallowed, turned the handle of the knife back towards her, and handed it to her.

Seeing Qi Yan taking the knife and gesturing at the fish on the chopping board, he said with distrust.

"Can you kill? Can you deal with it?"

This is a technical job.

Qi Yan didn't answer him. He found the right position and slashed with the knife without even blinking. The fish, which had been struggling just now, was only twitching due to muscle memory.

Looking at her swift movements and cold profile, Gu Qing shrank his neck.

It felt like she wasn't chopping off the fish's head, but his head.

Gu Shengge, who was standing next to him, came over and clapped enthusiastically, praising him.

"Sister Qi, you are so amazing. You handled it so quickly!"

It's not forced praise.

Her movements were smooth and fluid, without any unnecessary movement, like... a professional?

Qi Yan's expression towards the little girl looked much better, and he said as he was dealing with the internal organs.

"I slaughtered fish at the fish stall in the wet market for half a year."

"……what?"

Gu Shengge was a little confused.

It is probably hard to imagine such a pretty girl killing fish in front of a busy and smelly fish stall.

Her hand froze in mid-air, staring at Qi Yan's movements and her smooth yet cold profile.

A sentence suddenly popped up in my mind.

——I have been slaughtering fish in a certain Runfa for ten years, and my heart is as cold as my knife.

As soon as this thought came to her mind, she quickly shook it off, accepted it quickly, and asked.

"Sister Qi must have had a rich and wonderful life experience. What else have you done?"

Qi Yan saw her eyes sparkling with stars and realized that she was really curious. He thought for a moment, then picked out the things he could say and blurted them out one by one.

"I have sold fruit, opened a butcher shop, and set up so many stalls that I can't remember them all. I have also performed on the streets, told fortunes under overpasses, applied film, worked as a car mechanic, a transporter, various types of waiters, and a blind masseur..."

She spoke a long string of words in one breath, and everyone present was shocked.

The look in her eyes changed from pity to admiration.

A man of God!

There were too many, Gu Shengge could hardly keep up, and she didn't stop talking.

Qi Yan was not surprised by their reaction.

These are what can be said, but there is more that cannot be said.
