Chapter 37 The prince who personally cooked for her was so handsome
Su Mian fell asleep, and when she opened her eyes again, it was already the second half of the night.
When she woke up at that time, her eyes were pitch black, she rubbed her eyes, only moved slightly, and suddenly a force came from her waist.
"Awake?" Gu Zhixing's voice was extremely low in the darkness.
People who practice martial arts are already sleeping very lightly, and Su Mian just moved, and he woke up in an instant.
Su Mian rubbed his eyes, sat up with his black touch, and said in a soft tone: "Well, now...... What time is it? ”
"It's ugly." Gu Zhixing turned over and got out of bed and lit the candle on the side.
The room lit up instantly, and Su Mian's eyes turned around, feeling that she was not sleepy at all, but a little hungry.
"Not sleepy?" Gu Zhixing looked at her pair of apricot eyes, and knew at a glance that she must have rested enough.
Su Mian nodded, took the coat on the side and draped it on his body.
She and Gu Zhixing have been sharing the same bed for so many days, and he hasn't done anything out of the ordinary, although she is still a little wary in her heart, she has long been used to it.
"Lord Wang, I'm a little hungry." Su Mian rubbed her stomach and looked at Gu Zhixing with blank eyes.
Gu Zhixing turned around and was about to call someone: "I'll ask someone to get up and get you something to eat." ”
But in the middle of the night, the servants of the palace and the people in the dining room had already rested.
"No need!" Su Mian quickly stopped him: "Everyone has been busy all day, and they have to get up in the middle of the night to cook food for me, so don't bother......
Su Mian was a little embarrassed to trouble others.
Besides, if Zhihua knows that I eat in the middle of the night, I may not know how to "educate" me in pain tomorrow!
But Gu Zhixing only had Su Mian in his eyes, and he reached out and pinched her face dotingly: "Then Ah Mian can't be hungry, I'll ask someone to get up and make you some simple food." ”
"I really don't need to!" Su Mian tugged at his sleeve and said coquettishly: "It's better to ...... Will you accompany me to the dining room to see what else to eat? ”
"Shall I go with you?" Gu Zhixing looked at her with some amusement.
In the middle of the night, if you let people know what the regent wants to eat, and you have to go to the dining room in person, I'm afraid it will make people laugh off their big teeth, right?
But if Su Mian wants to go, it will be different.
After pondering for a moment, Gu Zhixing agreed without hesitation: "Okay, since that's the case, then I'll go with Ah Mian." ”
Gu Zhixing was worried about the cold wind outside, so he pulled the cloak on the side and draped it on Su Mian's body, and then took Su Mian out of the dormitory together.
There was silence in the palace in the middle of the night, only the moon hung in the sky barely illuminating the road under his feet, and the sound of insects coming from unknown places lingered in his ears.
Su Mian slept well, but she felt that her mood had improved a lot, and the air she smelled was much fresher.
The two held hands and came all the way to the dining room, Gu Zhixing casually looked at the food on the desk, and turned his head to look at her: "What does Ah Mian want to eat?" ”
The cooks in this house prepare a lot of semi-finished products before resting, and if the fire is fired in the middle of the night, they only need to be processed directly.
Su Mian obviously also found that these foods could not be eaten directly.
When she saw Gu Zhixing's easy look, she couldn't help but ask with some doubts: "Does the prince still cook?" You can't even eat any of this......
It is said that the gentleman cooks far away, Gu Zhixing shouldn't cook for me, right?
Oh my God, am I too successful as an adulterous concubine?
Sure enough, Gu Zhixing nodded as expected.
"Whatever Mian wants to eat, I'll make it for you." He stared confidently at the row of crockpots in front of him.
For the sake of Mian, what's the harm of just cooking?
Although he has never cooked, he can go to the front army to fight, and if the environment is difficult, he will inevitably have to roast some rabbit and other game by himself, so there is no difficulty in cooking here.
Seeing that he really wanted to do it, Su Mian no longer shirked, took a look at those crockpots one by one, and locked a can of chicken soup.
She stretched out her finger and pointed to the crockpot with chicken soup: "Everything else seems to be a little too complicated, just help me heat up chicken soup, and then ...... Next bowl of noodles, right? ”
"Okay." Gu Zhixing nodded, and without saying a word, he started a fire.
Su Mian moved a low stool and sat aside, looking at Gu Zhixing's angular side face reflected by the firelight, and her heart moved slightly inexplicably.
Why do I suddenly think that this big demon king seems to be quite handsome when he doesn't kill people?
"What are you doing staring at me? Mian is attracted to me? Gu Zhixing looked at her with a smile in his eyes, his five senses were extremely acute, and he had already noticed that Su Mian was staring at him intently for a long time.
Su Mian opened her mouth, and subconsciously wanted to refute, but when the words came to her mouth, she turned a corner.
Gu Zhixing didn't sleep in the middle of the night and was cooking for me, of course I had to coax him to be happy!
Thinking of this, Su Mian said: "It's the first time I've seen the prince cooking, and the image of the prince has suddenly become tall and mighty!" That's why I couldn't take my eyes off the prince for a while! ”
Gu Zhixing knew that she was deliberately flattering, but she couldn't help but bend the corners of her mouth.
He doesn't mind cooking for her every day if she likes it.
The chicken broth simmered slowly over low heat, and soon the aroma wafted throughout the dining room.
Gu Zhixing saw that the chicken soup was almost ready, so he took the noodles that had been prepared on the side and put them in the boiling water.
"Lord Wang, has the soup been boiling for too long?" Su Mian looked at the vigorous flames that were burning.
"Isn't chicken soup boiled for as long as possible?" Gu Zhixing glanced at the soup can, very satisfied with his "masterpiece", and couldn't help but nod secretly in his heart.
His first cooking seemed to be quite successful, and he didn't lose face in front of Ah Mian......
Just as I was thinking about it, my nose was infected with a vague mushy smell.
"Lord Wang! Chicken soup seems to be mushy? Su Mian subconsciously wanted to go up and pick up the crockpot, but because the crockpot was too hot, her delicate hands were directly burned, and she subconsciously took a few steps back.
Gu Zhixing reacted very quickly and grabbed Su Mian's hand and checked the fingertips that had been burned red: "Are you okay?" How can you be so careless? Dare to touch the crockpot on the fire? ”
Su Mian shook his head, but his eyes were still staring at the soup can that was bubbling and bubbling: "My hands are fine, the prince should put out the fire first." ”
The mushy smell in the nasal cavity is getting heavier and heavier, and if you don't turn off the fire, I'm afraid you won't be able to ask for this can of chicken soup.
Seeing that she was still thinking about food at this time, Gu Zhixing couldn't help but feel a little helpless and funny, he turned off the fire and brought the crockpot off the fire, and then he remembered another thing.
"Lord Wang, the face seems to be ...... It's boiled! Su Mian stood in place and stretched out his finger to the lump of noodles behind him that had already been boiled.
Gu Zhixing hurriedly fished out the noodles and put out the fire, and when he was busy with all this, he looked at the mess in front of him and felt a little helpless.
He never seemed to be so embarrassed in his life......
And it's still in front of Ah Mian.
Su Mian also looked at the messy scene in front of him and wanted to laugh a little, this is the chicken noodle soup she wanted?
No way! Can't laugh, can't laugh!
If she laughed at such a time, Gu Zhixing would definitely feel embarrassed, maybe what if someone was unhappy and took my life?!
Although she thought so in her heart, the corners of her mouth were raised uncontrollably.
Gu Zhixing didn't want her to eat something like this, so he raised his feet and wanted to leave: "I'll still let someone give you ......"
"No, no, no, just eat this!" Su Mian's eyes quickly grabbed him.
Gu Zhixing's expression was a little suspicious: "Are you sure?" ”
Su Mian smiled and nodded without hesitation: "Hmm!" Just eat this! I also bothered the prince to help me take it back to the dormitory. ”
She has always loved food, but she doesn't know why, although Gu Zhixing wasted good food, she still wants to give it a try.
As long as she thought of Gu Zhixing's appearance just now, standing in front of the stove with her head down so seriously, she felt sour and soft in her heart.
Gu Zhixing returned to the dormitory with the tray, and the two of them fell silent on the table.
They brought the bowl of noodles all the way back, and in the candlelight, the noodles had already become a lump, sticky and sticky, and looked unappetizing.
"Don't eat it." Gu Zhixing's expression was a little complicated.
If anyone dares to bring this disgusting food to him in the palace, it will be light for him to drive people out of the palace.
Su Mian looked at his rare and tangled look and felt a little like laughing, and without hesitation, he reached out and opened the soup can, and put a few spoonfuls of soup in the noodle bowl.
"The prince worked hard for me in the middle of the night, how can you not eat it?" She winked at Gu Zhixing, not deliberately flattering, but saying this from the bottom of her heart.
Gu Zhixing paused slightly, looked at Su Mian and smiled, with a heavy and gentle look in his eyes.
Although the chicken soup has a faint mushy taste, it has been stewed for a long time, with some rich aroma.
Su Mian ate a bowl of noodles to her heart's content, with a satisfied look on her face.
"Can you go back to sleep now? In another hour, it will be dawn. Gu Zhixing reached out and took a clean handkerchief and wiped the corners of Su Mian's mouth for him.
During this period of time, Su Mian had already been a little accustomed to Gu Zhixing's indiscriminate spoiling of her, she nodded and obediently went to bed.
Rolled herself into the quilt, she looked at the bed tent with her eyes open, but she was still not sleepy at all.
"Still don't want to sleep?" Gu Zhixing propped up one arm and looked at Su Mian.
Su Mian shook his head: "Well, I'm not sleepy." ”
Gu Zhixing's eyes flickered for a moment, and he whispered coaxingly: "Then I'll tell you a story, okay?" ”
"Storytelling?" Su Mian instantly became interested: "Okay, if the prince is not sleepy, then tell a story to listen." ”
"Okay." Gu Zhixing agreed.
His voice was originally low, but after deliberately lowering his tone, he became much gentler, and in a low voice, the sky slowly brightened, and Su Mian gradually fell into a deep sleep.
Gu Zhixing quietly turned over and got out of bed, and asked someone to call Zhihua: "From today onwards, strictly record the time when the princess sleeps every day and how long she sleeps, and report to me once a day." ”
