Chapter 263: Shouldn’t Women Have that Kind of Talent?

Sure enough, I still have to save my manuscript!

--------------------------

"Three days..."

Almost powerless is a rare gesture.

"What time is it now?" Ye Zi asked again.

This place is underground, there are no windows, and you can't see the outside scene, so you can't tell what time it is.

"Seven o'clock in the morning." Looking at Ye Zi like this, Yan Ye replied, the confusion in his eyes turned to worry.

Ye Zi patted his cheek after hearing this. He felt wet all over and felt uncomfortable, but the lingering shadow in his heart was even more uncomfortable. After sleeping for three days, when he woke up, his stomach protested faithfully.

Gululu…

An inappropriate sound came from his stomach, making the atmosphere slightly awkward.

Upon seeing this, Yan Ye looked at the dinner plate on the bedside table, which contained a large bowl of rice, a plate of elegant vegetables, and a plate of fried meat slices.

Ye Zi followed her gaze and looked at the bedside table beside him. He couldn't help but swallowed. He was so hungry now.

"I made this last night. It's cold now. Let me heat it up for you before you eat it." Yan Ye said, getting up and preparing to pick up the dinner plate.

She was thinking that Ye Zi had slept for so long and it was almost time to wake up, so she cooked the meals herself last night and brought them to Ye Zi's room.

Unexpectedly, after waiting all night, Ye Zi never woke up, so she didn't leave. She sat on the edge of the bed, leaning her chin on Ye Zi's sleeping posture, silently counting the passage of time. Unconsciously, I saw the dawn.

This was the first time that she saw a different side of Ye Zi. The peaceful and peaceful sleeping posture looked like a child, which made her not want to leave at all.

In the past, she had never seen Ye Zi sleeping like this during missions. During the mission, as long as Ye Zi kept vigil, she could sleep peacefully.

However, when she was keeping vigil, even if Ye Zi fell asleep, he would still be in a light sleep state. As long as he came within ten meters of him, he would wake up immediately.

It was originally a beautiful scene, but in the end, it was ruined by a nightmare... and that name.

Ye Zi noticed what Yan Ye said, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. He stretched out his hand to hold her arm that was reaching for the dinner plate. The latter's body suddenly stiffened, and then quickly softened.

Sensing that Yan Ye's body was unnatural for a moment, Ye Zi immediately let go of his hand and said, "Don't bother, just eat like this."

"If it gets cold, it won't taste good." Yan Ye didn't want the food she cooked for Ye Zi for the first time to become unpalatable because it got cold, but her persistence was weak. If it was Kushina, she would definitely Will refute Ye Zi's request without any doubt.

"fine."

Ye Zi was so hungry now that he didn't care about the taste at all, as long as he could fill his stomach.

He stood up and sat on the edge of the bed, reached for his chopsticks, and was about to start eating when Yan Ye stopped him and said, "Wait a minute."

The chopsticks reaching for the food froze in mid-air. Ye Zi turned his head and looked at Yan Ye doubtfully, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Well..." Yanye became a little nervous and said hesitantly: "Would it be better...to brush the lower teeth first?"

As these words fell, a strange silence suddenly fell between the two.

Ye Zi awkwardly maintained the action of stretching out his chopsticks, thinking quietly for more than ten seconds, and then slowly put down his chopsticks under Yan Ye's gaze.

"If it's not too much trouble, please heat up these meals."

"Ah?" Yan Ye was stunned, and then said happily: "No trouble, I'll help you heat it up."

After saying that, she picked up the dinner plate and ran out of the room quickly.

While Yan Ye went to heat the food, he rubbed the sun and got up to wash up.

Thinking of Yan Ye watching him sleep all night, or even longer, he couldn't help but feel a little unnatural.

While brushing his teeth, he thought about Yan Ye's happy smile just now.

"Happy...it's so simple."

The whisper was blocked by the toothbrush and the foam and became blurry. Ye Zi looked at himself in the mirror. Suddenly, the brushing movement slowed down and stopped after a moment, leaving his mouth full of foam.

His eyelids slowly drooped, and the dullness caused by the nightmare seemed to dissipate.

After a moment of silence, the hand that stopped moved again.

After washing up quickly and enduring the hunger, Ye Zi sat on the edge of the bed and waited for Yan Ye to come back.

After a while, Yan Ye came with steaming and fragrant food.

Smelling the aroma that arrived first, Ye Zi only felt hungrier.

Yan Ye put the dinner plate on the bedside table, then sat on the chair and said with a smile: "Eat."

Ye Zi nodded slightly, picked up the rice bowl with one hand and the chopsticks with the other. He first took a big mouthful of rice, then picked up several pieces of meat at once and put it in his mouth. He chewed it quickly at first, then slowed down.

So salty...even saltier than salted fish. How did you make this?

Ye Zi swallowed the meat slices with difficulty, picked up the vegetables with his chopsticks, and threw them into his mouth.

Still salty…

Eating such salty food, Ye Zi couldn't help but think of the food made by Kushina before, which was also horribly salty.

Aren’t women supposed to have a talent for cooking?

"How is it? Is it delicious?" Since Ye Zi's expression did not change much, Yan Ye could not see what was wrong with the food and looked at Ye Zi expectantly.

Ye Zi turned his head and looked at Yan Ye silently for a while, then asked, "How much salt did you put in?"

"Ah?" Yan Ye was slightly stunned, and then said uncertainly: "There should be about a spoonful."

"Are you sure?" Ye Zi didn't believe it.

Yan Ye recalled for a moment, then nodded vigorously, his thumb and index finger parallel, showing a small gap, and said: "Just a little bit, and it will be a full spoonful."

Ye Zi frowned and asked in confusion: "Why is it so salty?"

Yan Ye blinked his eyes and said weakly: "I don't know very well. Is it delicious?"

"It tastes so salty, how can it be delicious?" Ye Zi was a little speechless, but he still picked up the slices of meat and started eating. He was very hungry now and couldn't care less.

Hearing Ye Zi say that the food was unpalatable, Yan Ye was disappointed, but seeing Ye Zi still eat it made him laugh.

After Ye Zi ate a few slices, he felt it was getting saltier and saltier, and when he peeled away the slices of meat, there was a layer of crystals on the bottom of the plate. What else could it be if it wasn't salt?

Suddenly, he thought of a question, so he stopped eating, looked at Yan Ye, and asked, "What spoon did you use when adding salt?"

"Pot and spoon." Yanye replied naturally without realizing the problem.

"Pot and spoon!?" Ye Zi automatically imagined that the pot and spoon was filled with salt, his face suddenly darkened, he turned around and started eating silently.

When preparing poison, there should be high requirements for controlling the quantity, right?

Yan Ye, who can prepare all kinds of poisons with plant poisons, why does he cook like this? Are you deliberately trying to mess with me?

"What's wrong?" Yan Ye's tone was weak.

"Nothing." Ye Zi buried his head in eating his food.

After finishing all the food with some difficulty, not even a grain of rice was left. Ye Zi put down the bowl and chopsticks, feeling that he was only two points full.

Seeing that Ye Zi could finish the meal, Yan Ye couldn't help but be extremely happy.

Ye Zi stroked his belly, looking like he wasn't full.

Seeing this, Yan Ye stood up from the chair and volunteered, "Are you still not full? I'll make some more. This time I'll make it delicious."

"No, I'm full." Ye Zi quickly let go of the hand on his stomach.

Yan Ye glanced at Ye Zi's belly suspiciously.

"Okay, pack up and go out." Although Ye Zi was still hungry, he didn't want to eat such salty food anymore, so he immediately drove Yan Ye out.

"All right."

Yan Ye hesitated for a while, then obediently collected the dishes, turned around and left.

After seeing Yan Ye leave, Ye Zi stood up and thought about how to fill his stomach.

He may not have even noticed that the shadow of depression in his heart had been swept away without him realizing it.
