Chapter 299: Brother Quan, Put This On
Quan Jue nodded indifferently.
Chi Jiao originally thought that he was going to ask her about it. Therefore, she was prepared to tell him the truth as long as he asked.
However, Quan Jue continued, “What do you want to eat tonight? We don’t have wild rabbits.”
Chi Jiao was stunned for a moment before counting on her fingers. “I want to eat Kung Pao chicken, pickled fish, spicy pork ribs…”
A list of dishes rolled out of her mouth. They were all dishes that Quan Jue knew how to make.
“I’ll cook tonight,” Quan Jue said after she had finished reporting.
He would take this as a way to make it up to her for not being able to eat the roasted rabbit meat.
Chi Jiao wouldn’t stop her boyfriend from showing his abilities. She hoped that her grandparents would like Quan Jue more.
No, she hoped that everyone important to her would like him.
“I’ll go prepare in the kitchen. Where is it?” Quan Jue asked.
“I’ll bring you there.” Chi Jiao jumped off the bed.
After a while, the heavy rain arrived as promised.
The air in the mountains was very fresh. When it rained, the fresh air would mix with the smell of soil.
Jiang Shen, Ou Zhenglin, and Liu Ruhua were chatting in the main hall. Jiang Xiaoli couldn’t join them and was feeling bored. Therefore, she walked out of the main hall and came to the eaves of the house.
Egg Yolk was hiding under the eaves as well. He hugged a big bone with his paws and gnawed on it happily.
Jiang Xiaoli looked at it with disdain.
A mutt is a mutt. It’s really too ugly.
Egg Yolk seemed to detect her gaze as he looked up at her.
Then, with a vigilant expression, it picked up the bone with its mouth, turned around, and ran away.
Jiang Xiaoli was confused.
This silly dog is afraid that I’ll snatch its bone!
Retracting her gaze with a mocking expression, Jiang Xiaoli’s gaze inadvertently landed on a flower bed not far away.
In the rain, a dark red flower floated in the middle of the flower bed.
The flower was about the size of a porcelain bowl. It looked like a rose, but there was a dark silver circle around its sides. It was even more mysterious and beautiful than a rose.
Although it was winter, the flowers were blooming very well. Among the bunch of flowers in the flower bed that she couldn’t name, the red flower gave off the feeling of a crane standing among chickens. It was very eye-catching.
“What a beautiful flower!” Jiang Xiaoli exclaimed, her eyes filled with amazement.
She had never seen such a beautiful flower before.
Jiang Xiaoli confirmed that there was no one around before dashing out in the rain.
Arriving in front of the flowerbed, Jiang Xiaoli looked at the beautiful flower swaying in the wind and rain. It had a fragrance that delighted her.
She didn’t know what type of flower it was, but she felt that since it was planted in the garden in the yard to be blown by the wind and rain, it shouldn’t be a good breed.
Therefore, Jiang Xiaoli did not feel burdened at all as she reached out to the flower.
When the sky turned completely dark, Chi Jiao helped Quan Jue prepare a tableful of food.
Just as he was about to call the others for dinner, Chi Jiao called out to him. She took out a silver bracelet from her pocket and stuffed it into his hand.
“Brother Quan, put this on. It will prevent the people from 117 from discovering that you have special abilities,” Chi Jiao said.
Quan Jue glanced at the silver bracelet in his hand.
The design was simple, and there was a black jade pendant on it.
Without hesitation, he put the bracelet on.
“Go get Grandfather, Grandmother, and the rest to have dinner together,” Quan Jue said.
