Chapter 557: Dangerous Labels
Ye Muyu lowered her head and saw the slowly peeled pumpkin seeds inside. Although she already knew that Ye Pozi was deliberately teasing Chu Heng, she didn't expect him to actually do it, and so seriously at that.
"It's okay, you don't have to peel anymore. Actually, this was just a joke from mother. You don't have to peel so many." Ye Muyu quickly spoke up to stop him when she saw him still peeling. She felt relieved when he stopped, but she also explained softly, feeling somewhat guilty because he was peeling pumpkin seeds for her in the first place.
Chu Heng's eyes curved as he reached out and took some pumpkin seeds, feeding them to her.
Instinctively, Ye Muyu opened her mouth and in the next moment, it was filled with the fragrant pumpkin seeds Chu Heng had fed her. His fingertip inadvertently brushed against her lips, sending a tingling sensation through her. Ye Muyu's ears instantly turned red, and she instinctively moved her head back, distancing herself from his fingertip!
Ye Muyu looked at Chu Heng's fingers, mentally labeling them as 'dangerous'.
Whenever they touched her, she felt a current of electricity run through her body, a sensation that felt too unfamiliar and strange.
Chu Heng seemed oblivious to her actions and continued to feed her.
Ye Muyu quickly reached out and took the pumpkin seeds from his hand. "I'll eat them myself. You have some tea."
Saying that, she handed the tea to Chu Heng.
Actually, Chu Heng's gaze had been on her the whole time, but Ye Muyu completely failed to notice.
Seeing her finally show a bit of shyness, Chu Heng felt satisfied in his heart. He couldn't resist teasing Ye Muyu a bit more since there were other people present.
"Okay." Chu Heng took the tea and brought it to his lips, taking just a sip.
There were quite a few dishes prepared for lunch: sautéed garlic shoots with cured meat, stewed radish soup cooked with cured meat and sausages, which made the soup oily enough, giving it a mild flavor. There were also stir-fried vegetables such as green beans, green peppers, and carrots.
But there was no green leafy vegetables.
Because all the green leafy vegetables in the Ye family had been turned into pickled vegetables by Ye Pozi, there were no spare greens left.
Even the green beans had been pickled into sour beans.
Once everyone was seated, they began to eat. Since there was only one guest, Luchuan was seated at the lower end of the table.
"There's not much delicious food at home. Ah Heng, Ah Zhao, don't be polite. Eat more." Ye Pozi smiled and beckoned, then sat down beside Ye Dejiang.
The dining table was made up of two tables put together, just enough to seat everyone.
"Let's eat, let's eat..." Ye Dejiang also chimed in.
Seeing that the two children were able to pick their dishes, Ye Muyu didn't need to worry too much. She picked up some vegetables and eat slowly.
Ye Zhao spoke up, "Dad, Mom, you've worked hard over the years."
He poured a glass of wine and toasted to both of them.
Ye Pozi's eyes were a little red. She had missed Ye Zhao over the years. Only her eldest son could support the family, and she had even mentally prepared herself for the possibility of losing him.
But now he had returned, and Ye Pozi felt like heaven was looking out for her.
"It's good that you're back." Ye Pozi held back her tears, trembling as she drank some tea.
Ye Dejiang also sighed, taking a gulp of wine. "There are no eyes on the battlefield. You have to take care of yourself in the future. Don't rush into everything. You have a wife and children now, and they depend on you."
"Your mother and I are getting older. Don't count on us for everything." Ye Dejiang made a reasonable point, but it earned him a glare from Ye Pozi.
