Chapter 159 – Slow Practice
"He woke up." Seeing that pair of wet eyes staring at him without blinking, Gu Shu Bai's heartbeat suddenly stopped. Fortunately, his mental fortitude was strong enough, and he quickly reacted, straightening his back and taking back his hands that were holding the ointment and cotton swabs, he drooped down to his sides, looking somewhat nervous and uneasy.
He looked a little like a child who had done something wrong.
Ji Zi Mo didn't know how she could connect this thirty year old man with a height of 1.8 meters with a child. At the very least, she would think like this.
She sat up, looked at Gu Shu Bai, then looked at the ointment and cotton swabs in his hands, pointed at them, and asked with some suspicion: "professor Gu, what are you doing?"
"I'll apply medicine for you." Gu Shu Bai followed her line of sight and saw the ointment in his hands and the cotton swab, he said: "There are mosquitoes this season, there was no mosquito smell in the room just now, and mosquitoes bit you. You were itching just now, I'll rub some on you."
When Gu Shu Bai was explaining, her expression and actions were very normal. In Ji Zi Mo's opinion, it was very strange, he had never done this before, but she did not say anything about it.
"I see." He only nodded and said, "Thank you."
"No need." Hearing her say "thank you", Gu Shu Bai's heart stifled. But after thinking about it, this situation could already be considered to be extremely good. She was courteous and distant from him, at least, it was not to expel fear.
"You."
"You."
After the two of them finished their conversation, no one spoke, they were silent, but since it was so quiet, it was not good either. Gu Shu Bai intended to ask if she was hungry, but who knew that when he did, she spoke up as well.
"You first." Originally, Ji Zi Mo planned to say something to ease the awkwardness in the room, but when the word "you" came out, he was unable to continue. Luckily, he followed and spoke up as well.
"Hungry?" Gu Shu Bai slightly pursed his lips and opened his mouth. His voice was a little hoarse.
"Ugh!" It seems a little bit … "
Ji Zi Mo thought back to what she had eaten this morning. It seemed like a Cola chicken wing, then, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't remember what it was. It seemed that he hadn't eaten anything.
"What do you want to eat? I'll do it for you. " Pausing for a moment, Gu Shu Bai changed his words: "I'll go buy it for you." The reason why he switched words with her was because he was worried that she would still be resistant to what he had done.
"Oh, anything is fine." For food, as long as it was delicious, it would be fine.
"But professor Gu, why do you want to buy it, and not make it?" Ji Zi Mo was a little confused by Gu Shu Bai's words just now. Walking forward, she remembered that Gu Shu Bai had made her own food, so why would she think about buying it today? professor Gu, do you still have matters to attend to? "
"No." When Gu Shu Bai heard these words, a hint of happiness spread across her heart. He quickly said, "There's nothing to do today, if you want to eat something that I made, I'll make it for you."
"Imperial Consort Chicken, Stewed Fish Wings, Pine Rat Fish, Sweet Sauce, Eight Treasures Duck, Chowder Soup... How about I cook these for you? Or is there something else you want to eat? "
"Yes, that's enough." He had just listed out a long list of dishes, some that he had taken her to eat, and some that he had cooked for himself. They were all very delicious, and some that he had not cooked for her, but when she had visited some delicious dishes, she had seen that they were all famous dishes, and there were even two that were famous dishes in the capital.
"Okay, then I'll go down and do it for you. You can get up and brush your teeth and wash your face, then go downstairs and watch TV. Un, or do something else if you want to." First, he wanted her to watch some television, but after saying that, he felt that he had meddled too much in it. Thus, he changed the topic and asked her to do whatever she wanted.
"Alright."
Ji Zi Mo looked at the man in front of him as he spoke, and kept feeling that something was wrong.
This was unlike the previous him she knew. Although he had always been good to her, the disparity between them would inevitably be greater.
Why did he become like this? Ji Zi Mo kept thinking about it. Could it be that it was because he had a relationship with her?
She looked after him as he came down the stairs, and this thought suddenly popped into her mind.
They had a relationship? She wanted to hate Gu Shu Bai, yes, she thought he had forced herself to have a relationship with her, she hated him, she wanted to hate him, but when that thought appeared in her mind, a voice resounded in her head, saying: "You don't hate him, you don't hate him."
What was going on?
Ji Zi Mo frowned and thought about it carefully. However, she could not deny that after that voice sounded, the disgust in her heart towards Gu Shu Bai dissipated.
What was going on?
Ji Zi Mo really couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she tried.
In fact, it was very simple, it was just the effect of the psychological hints Yan Yun Nong gave her previously.
As for why Gu Shu Bai took her, she couldn't remember it clearly. It was also because of Yan Yun Nong that he didn't use hypnosis to erase this part of her memories, afraid that she would suffer another similar stimulation later on, making her worse. However, using hypnosis to make this part of her memories blur, wasn't really that profound.
This was also the reason why the psychological hints he gave her could play such a big role.
She thought, the cause of the matter was that matter, and now that the source of the matter had become blurry, she could not clearly remember it.
… ….
"How's the taste of these dishes?" In these few days, there were people who came over with fresh fish, meat, vegetables and fruits. The ingredients that Gu Shu Bai needed to cook were all available, so without going out to prepare anything, the dishes were quickly placed on the table.
"I smell it." He had just reached the foot of the stairs to smell the fragrance.
"Now try it." Gu Shu Bai passed her a pair of chopsticks.
"Alright." Ji Zi Mo reached out to take his chopsticks, and tried the dishes one by one.
Gu Shu Bai noticed that every time she tried a dish, her eyes would narrow like a satisfied kitten's.
Seeing her satisfied look, he was also satisfied. There were faint traces of a smile at the corners of his mouth.
"How is it?" As he patiently waited for her to taste all the dishes on the table, Gu Shu Bai finally opened his mouth to ask her a second time. The person who was usually very confident in his culinary skills was currently a bit uncertain.
"Hmm …" Ji Zi Mo took a spoonful of soup and nodded to Gu Shu Bai.
"Do you think the taste is good?" If he wanted her recognition so much, he had to lower himself again and again.
It was a good thing that he got what he wanted from her. He could hear her soft voice ringing out in his ears. "Good, very good." was probably pleased by this delicacy. Not only did he say a few words good, he even gave Gu Shu Bai a thumbs up and a smile.
