C104 104 Physical Discomfort

After Xiao Linmu left, Huo Jie slowly returned with a bucket of water.

"Sister Xia Yi, what did Brother Mu say to you just now?" Huo Jie still had not put down her bucket of water, and could not wait to ask.

She had wanted to eavesdrop, but thinking about Xiao Linmu's vigilance, she could only give up.

"Nothing."

"Nothing?"

Xiao Linmu was a dignified Prince Mu who specially came to the kitchen just to take a look at Xia Yi? This didn't make sense!

Xia Yi only shook her head, "It's weird."

She knew that Xiao Linmu had a weird personality, but her actions just now made her feel that it was even weirder.

She vaguely felt that Xiao Linmu had something he wanted to say.

Thinking again, with Xiao Linmu's character, how could he do something like this?

Xia Yi then gave up on her subconscious and focused on cooking.

Huo Jie was actually unable to help much with the kitchen, even the dishes that were washed had to be rewashed before Xia Yi could use it.

But she still stayed in the kitchen, following Xia Yi from the back.

It was not because he loved cooking, but because he did not want to go out and stare at Xiao Linmu.

After all the side dishes were prepared, Xia Yi started a fire and prepared to cook.

"Miss Huo, there's so much oil in the kitchen. Would you like to take a look elsewhere?"

It was not that Xia Yi wanted to kick her out, it was just because Huo Jie was standing too close to her, which was a bit of an hindrance to her.

The side dishes were still fine, but once they began to fry, it would be both hot and oily. It would be a bit dangerous.

Unexpectedly, Huo Jie was still standing at her original position, and said: "It's fine, I'm not afraid of Oil Smoke."

"…"

"Sister Xia Yi, don't chase me away, it's too boring outside. Besides, I can help you out in the kitchen …" Huo Jie said as she blinked her eyes.

Xia Yi looked left and right, then said: "Then help me light a fire."

In the past, Xia Yue had helped Xia Yi heat up the fire quite a few times, so such a simple matter shouldn't be too difficult for him.

However, there was still some trouble.

Huo Jie kept adding firewood to the stove, almost choking to death.

While Huo Jie was constantly trying to help, Xia Yi was still strong enough to cook an entire table of food.

The taste and fragrance were barely able to keep up.

Huo Jie squatted in front of the stove and smelled the fragrant food for a long time, she was already extremely hungry.

When she stood up and saw the plates of tasty and alluring dishes on the table, she was already so shocked that her mouth could no longer cover her mouth, "Sister Xia Yi, you're actually so amazing! No wonder Brother Mu wants you to cook for us as a gift!"

"Try it?" Looking at Huo Jie who was rubbing her hands together, Xia Yi directly handed him a pair of chopsticks.

Huo Jie immediately grabbed a piece of sweet and sour pork with her chopsticks.

Knowing that Huo Jie liked sweets, Xia Yi put a little more sugar on the inside of her candy.

"It's too delicious!" "Fight it out with everything my family's chef does!" Huo Jie had not finished chewing on the meat in her mouth, and impatiently gave Xia Yi a thumbs up.

"Let's go, take these dishes out with me."

The house was quiet, other than Xiao Linmu and his servants, there was no one else.

"Alright!" Huo Jie took small happy steps and followed closely behind Xia Yi, doing what she had done outside before.

From the beginning to end, Xia Yi had only treated her as an ordinary little girl, and did not treat her with even the slightest of preferential treatment just because she was a daughter of the General Huo Palace.

It was precisely this kind of attitude from Xia Yi that made Huo Jie feel at ease like she had never felt before.

Amongst all the officials she had interacted with in the past, which one of them wasn't afraid of offending her?

However, behind her back, she would secretly talk about how she was just a wild girl who didn't have any manners and only knew how to use force.

Huo Jie was clear about all of this.

and Xia Yang were the only ones in the small side hall where they were eating.

"Where's the Brother Mu?" Huo Jie placed the two plates of food on the table and asked Wei Chu.

Wei Chu replied: "Young Master is not feeling well, I specifically instructed you not to disturb me."

"Are you unwell?" Xia Yi frowned and asked, just now when she saw him in the kitchen, she was clearly fine, how did her body become unwell in such a short time?

"Yes."

"Have you called a doctor?"

"Nope."

Wei Chu didn't know what was going on between Xia Yi and the two of them, so he could only carefully answer Xia Yi's questions.

"Why didn't you call a doctor?"

"The young master did not give his orders."

"…" Xia Yi was speechless, wasn't Xiao Linmu's attendant's brain a little too straight?

She frowned and said to Wei Chu, "Go and find a doctor on the street, I'll go and see what's wrong with him."

After saying that, he quickly walked out of the side hall and towards the direction of Xiao Linmu's room.

Wei Chu stood where he was, not knowing what to do. He had just seen Xiao Linmu's cold face, and obviously he was in a bad mood.

However, Huo Jie reacted quickly, she looked at Wei Chu and asked: "Do you feel that Sister Xia Yi is very worried about Brother Mu?"

Wei Chu shook his head in a daze, and said: "Then do I need to go and get Young Noble a doctor?"

"What doctor? It's enough with the Sister Xia Yi. " Huo Jie said.

When Xiao Linmu had just left the kitchen, she had a deep feeling that things were not simple.

Xia Yang was still young, so he did not understand the meaning behind Huo Jie's words. He said to Huo Jie blankly: "Big sister only knows how to cook, and does not know how to judge life."

Huo Jie only smiled mysteriously and said to Xia Yang: "You are still young. You will know when you grow up.

"Heart attack?" Xia Yang's little face was creased into a ball, as he obviously did not understand what Huo Jie meant.

However, Wei Chu suddenly understood, "Thank you for your reminder, Miss Huo."

Xiao Linmu's room door was tightly closed.

Xia Yi walked in front of the door and lightly knocked twice.

After a while, an impatient voice came from inside, "You forgot what you just said?"

"Hearing Wei Chu say that you're not feeling well, do you want to eat something before you rest? I also stir-fried two light green vegetables … " Xia Yi said to the inside of the door.

There was no sound from inside the door, just as Xia Yi was about to knock again, she extended her hand out, and just then the door opened, her hand striking Xiao Linmu's chest.

Xiao Linmu lowered his head and glanced at the hand on his chest, then raised his head and glanced at Xia Yi.

Xia Yi paused for a moment and immediately retracted his hand, "You … Why did you come out? "

"You're not looking for me?" Xiao Linmu raised his eyebrows, looking at the flustered person in front of him, who did not know where to place his hands, his heart was a little joyful.

"Yes …" It's for you! " Xia Yi hurriedly said.

Xiao Linmu turned his body slightly, giving way to the door, "Come in."
