ATBLM [QT] Chapter 92.2

Xu Hansheng said, “Big Brother likes Xiao Qi, it’s normal to do this.”

“I know it’s normal, but if you see there is no one beside them. But I am embarrassed to look at them.” The cheeky person said.

“Then, Second Brother, you should watch it less, beware of blindness.” Xu Hansheng said with a smile.

“Hey– Old Sixth, you are really begging for a beating today!”

The day before, they said it would be nice to watch the sunrise. At four or five o’clock in the morning the next day, Huo Changyao and the two got up. He was neatly dressed, and Jiang Rui was still wearing pajamas.

Seeing that she was about to go out like this, Huo Changyao went back to the room, took out his coat, and wrapped it around her. When she wore the coat, the hem reached  her calves, and it was wrapped around Jiang Rui’s body. The whole person was wrapped tightly from head to toe. Really, only one head is exposed.

“Whose winter melon ran out?” Huo Changyao said solemnly.

Jiang Rui glared at him, tilted her head, and left. Because the hem of the clothes was too long, she staggered when walking. From the back, it looked more like a winter melon.

Huo Changyao showed a smile at the corner of his mouth. Seeing her preparing to go upstairs, he was afraid that she was stepping on her clothes and falling, so he quickly stepped forward to protect her.

It was still early now. The two of them were sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows on the east side of the greenhouse. Looking at it, the mountains were like ink, silently hidden in the dawn. The sky was dark blue with a little purple, and countless stars were flashing overhead.

After one night, the heat accumulated in the greenhouse during the day has basically dissipated, and there is white frost on the glass.

“Is it cold?” Huo Changyao asked.

Jiang Rui shook her head, “Is Big Brother cold?”

“It’s not cold.” Huo Changyao touched the back of her hand to let her feel the temperature of his palm.

The two of them chatted with each other. The color of the sky changed silently, from dark blue-purple to dark blue, and then to light blue. The dark blue seemed like the endless sea. Gradually, it seemed like it was changing from deep blue to light blue. From the middle of the ocean to the coast, the color in front of them becomes lighter.

After a while, a touch of white with a light golden color appeared in the sky. Both of them stopped talking and stared into the distance.

The sun emerged on the top of the mountain, and its golden-red light mixed with warmth shone on their body. Jiang Rui narrowed her eyes slightly, and a hand suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, blocking the light.

Huo Changyao said, “Don’t keep looking at it, you may be dazzled.”

“I know. Let’s go downstairs to have breakfast, I’m hungry.”

“It’s still early. Old Zhang probably hasn’t gotten up yet. I’ll go shopping on the street.” Huo Changyao stood up.

Jiang Rui grabbed and stopped him, “There must be some food in the kitchen. Let’s go find it and heat it up by ourselves.”

Huo Changyao frowned slightly: “Yesterday was not fresh.”

“Oh, it’s okay. The weather is so cold, it won’t be bad after one night. Big Brother, come here quickly.” Jiang Rui was really hungry and did not want to continue chatting with him, so she trotted downstairs.

Huo Changyao had no choice but to follow, “Walk slowly, be careful not to fall.”

Jiang Rui was skillfully rummaging through the cabinets in the kitchen. Although she hadn’t been cooking for a long time, the craftsmanship of the first world was still there. Not to mention that it was just a simple matter of starting a fire.

She found a few crab meat buns, vegetable buns, and red bean paste buns. She put water in the pot to steam the buns and used the stock left over from the night before to avoid not being flavorful enough. She also washed the green vegetables and threw them in.

She was quick with her hands and feet, and Huo Changyao was at the side trying to help, but there was no place to help her as he walked around.

Jiang Rui pushed him aside, opened the lid of the pot, took a bun from the inside, and threw it over, “Big Brother, take it!”

Huo Changyao subconsciously reached out to pick it up. The buns that had just come out of the pot were soft and hot. He could only toss them back and forth in his hands. His shoulders were slightly hunched due to the heat. He looked so embarrassed, but he was still wearing a straight military uniform. The contrast was even greater. Jiang Rui laughed so hard that she held her stomach.

Huo Changyao shook his head helplessly, and when it was no longer so hot, he handed the bun to her mouth.

Jiang Rui took a bite, and the thin bun wrapper was wrapped with plump fillings. Just one bite was satisfying.

“Yes, Big Brother, you eat.” She pushed his hand back again.

Huo Changyao was slightly stunned when he saw the teeth marks on the bun and wanted her to continue eating. But she had already picked up another steamed bun with chopsticks, bit it in small bites, and ate while blowing it.

He stared at the bun for a while, then went around the gap, and carefully ate the remaining parts. When the bun was eaten so that only the teeth marks were left, he opened his mouth wider and swallowed it whole.

The chef of Huo Mansion, Old Zhang, got up and yawned as usual to prepare breakfast. He just stepped into the living room when he heard a movement from the kitchen. His first reaction was that there was a thief. He immediately hid behind the vase and poked his head carefully. Because the light was not bright enough, he only saw two figures sneaking around in the kitchen.

Today’s thieves are so bold that they even dare to steal things in the Huo Mansion!

Old Zhang cursed. He compared the number of people on both sides and felt that he could not defeat them, so he quietly slipped out to look for more people.

So, when everyone in Huo’s mansion took the guy and poured into the house mightily and shouted the little thief boldly, they saw their handsome Marshal and his wife each holding a bun in their mouths and turning their heads at the same time.

Translator’s Comment:

Marshal: My image!!! Well.. ehm… I think my image is not as important as the bun bitten by Xiao Qi.

Jiang Rui: Old pervert…
