Chapter 162 - 162 An Inexplicable Sense of Familiarity
162 An Inexplicable Sense of Familiarity
Although Su Binglan said so, Luo Jin’an still insisted, “We should eat together.”
“B-But I already ate,” as soon as Su Binglan finished speaking, her stomach growled.
‘Ugh!’
Su Binglan felt embarrassed, covered her stomach with her hands, and lowered her head, not daring to look at her husband. “T-That’s…”
Luo Jin’an simply repeated himself, “We should eat together.”
Su Binglan shook her head and said, “I-I only brought three servings and didn’t bring enough spoons and chopsticks.”
She had only brought three pairs of chopsticks and three spoons for her husband and two nephews.
“You can eat, Aunt Binglan. I’m not hungry.” Su Xuehai was only four years old, but he was very sensible. He handed the eating utensils to his aunt.
Su Xuexuan added, “Yeah, Aunt Binglan. You can eat because I’m not hungry either.”
Su Binglan was touched when she heard that. She saw how kind everyone was to her. Even the four-year-old Su Xuehai knew how to be considerate of his aunt. Su Binglan was at a loss for words.
Luo Jin’an said, “Here, the academy provides utensils. Now we can eat together.” He handed some chopsticks and a spoon to his wife as he spoke.
Su Binglan became teary-eyed as she sniffled and nodded. “O-Okay, let’s eat together.”
She patted Su Xuehai’s head and looked at Su Xuexuan. “Eat up, you two.”
Su Xuehai said happily, “Yay, we’re eating with Aunt Binglan!”
He was still a child, so his voice was soft, crisp, and adorable. Even Su Binglan thought it was cute.
Su Xuexuan was six years old and knew how to use chopsticks, but his younger brother was only four, so he had to use both hands to hold his chopsticks.
Luo Jin’an gave Su Xuehai a spoon and said gently, “Use this and scoop the food. Slowly eat so you don’t choke, okay?”
He treated his nephews very gently. Su Binglan felt a warmth in her heart when she saw what her husband did. She could not help but ask, “You like children a lot, don’t you?”
She saw Luo Jin’an’s hands stop when she asked him that question. Suddenly, she realized how ambiguous her question was. It was as if she wanted to have children with him.
She thought her husband would misunderstand her and hurriedly explained, “T-That’s not what I meant! Please, don’t misunderstand me!”
Luo Jin’an raised his eyebrows, looked at his wife with a faint smile, and said, “What do you mean? What did I misunderstand?”
‘Ugh!’
Su Binglan was shocked and realized Luo Jin’an had tricked her again. Believe it or not, sometimes, she could not think calmly whenever Luo Jin’an was around.
It was bizarre. Perhaps it was because Su Binglan felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity whenever Luo Jin’an was around, or maybe, for some reason, she also felt guilty.
It was a strange sense of guilt as she felt she could not do anything to let her husband down. She wondered if it had something to do with her predecessor because her predecessor was evil to Luo Jin’an and would always whip him.
The dark spirit, Su Binglan’s predecessor, was the cause of all the wounds on Luo Jin’an’s back. In addition, Su Binglan felt shocked whenever she thought about the old knife wounds on her husband’s back. She could not help but want to treat Luo Jin’an better.
Su Binglan blinked and ignored her husband’s question. She looked to her nephews and asked, “What do you think about the food? Do they taste good?”
Su Xuexuan was more reserved with his reply, “They’re delicious, Aunty Binglan.”
Meanwhile, Su Xuehai frantically nodded and said in a sweet tone, “These are great, Aunt Binglan!”
Su Binglan was thrilled to see her nephews enjoying her food. “You can eat more if you like it. I brought a lot, so eat as much as you like. I can always make more.”
Even though she said she would eat with her husband and nephews, Su Binglan did not eat much. She brought more food for the trio but could not bear to eat it because she thought Luo Jin’an and the two little ones should eat more.
Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai were still children, so they would not notice these details, but Luo Jin’an would. He also did not eat much.
Su Binglan looked at him and said, “Don’t you like the food? Why aren’t you eating more?”
Luo Jin’an insisted, “Eat with me then.”
He did not say much, but his wife understood what he meant. Luo Jin’an would not eat if Su Binglan did not eat either.
‘Why is she so stubborn?!’ Luo Jin’an thought. Still, he had to admit that Su Binglan possessed unshakable determination.
“Okay, I’ll eat with you,” Su Binglan said.
“Okay.” Luo Jin’an finally started to eat.
Su Binglan looked at him and asked, “Do you like it?”
Luo Jin’an responded, “I do. The bun’s crust is flaky, and it has a slight sweetness. It’s perfect. The haggis soup is also very delicious.
Su Binglan explained smilingly, “I taught Wenzhe and Yinyin how to make these. They’ve started selling them during noon too, so their business should do well.”
“Okay,” Luo Jin’an gave her a very brief reply.
Su Binglan thought her husband would ask her something out of curiosity, but he did not. Instead, she found that the longer she spent with Luo Jin’an, the more comfortable she got.
She felt a sense of relief that she did not have to worry about him discovering her secrets. Even if he did, she knew Luo Jin’an would not ask her too many questions and probe.
…
After eating, Su Binglan took her basket and returned to the shop. Before she reached the shop, she could see people lining up at the tofu shop entrance from afar.
She guessed those people were there to buy their sesame buns and haggis soup. However, she did not expect to see so many people so soon.
Su Binglan could hear the people discussing something as she walked over.
“I heard there aren’t many buns and much soup, so I came to line up as soon as possible.”
“I could smell the fragrance from afar. I wasn’t hungry at first, but I got hungry when I smelled the food!”
“It must be delicious. Everything the shop owner cooks is delicious.”
“Those who have already tried the food said they’re fragrant and delicious. The customers also said they felt warm whenever they drank the haggis soup.”
“I wonder when it’s our turn to try these dishes.”
…
Su Binglan could not help but smile when she heard these words. She knew the business would boom with her big brother and sister-in-law at the shop’s helm. Perhaps the sesame buns and haggis soup would become the shop’s specialty.
Everyone warmly greeted Su Binglan when they saw her. These returning customers had previously come to buy desserts and tofu, so they knew Su Binglan.
When the returning customers heard that the tofu shop would sell sesame buns and haggis soup, they immediately queued up without question because they believed the food Su Binglan made would be delicious.
Su Binglan entered the shop and noticed how busy Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin were. They were so busy that they could not stand still for even a second. Even though they were busy, the couple was smiling excitedly.
“I’ll take one bun and a big bowl of haggis soup, sir!”
“Ma’am, can I get another sesame bun? I already put the money on the counter.”
“Your sesame buns and haggis soup are delicious!”
…
Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin always smiled whenever they interacted with the customers. Their business went well, and they were delighted.
Liu Yinyin finally noticed Su Binglan as she served a customer haggis soup. She said excitedly, “Binglan, you’re back!”
When Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin saw Su Binglan, it was like their support pillar had arrived, so their hearts could be at ease.
Although Su Binglan said so, Luo Jin’an still insisted, “We should eat together.”
“B-But I already ate,” as soon as Su Binglan finished speaking, her stomach growled.
