421 Isn“t It More Interesting To Apply Lip Gloss Like This?

“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely take responsibility for you,” Ruan Yangs said to comfort him after thinking for a while.

“You must remember what you said.” Li Shaobin was gloomy. “You went to Lu Shan with Xiaoxia today, so you have to go skiing with me tomorrow.”

“Mm. I’m entering the elevator now,” Ruan Yang said. “I might lose my connection.”

Li Shaobin put his phone down and took out a cigarette frustratedly for a smoke.

…

The next afternoon, when he woke up, he saw that he received a message from Li Xiaoxia in the morning: I hate you.

He shook his head continuously. This lad could even hate his uncle over a woman.

When he went down for breakfast, he asked, “Is Li Xiaoxia alright?”

“How could he be alright? His eyes were still red when he left in the morning and he even refused to talk to anyone.” He Mingshan rolled her eyes. She didn’t sleep well last night either.

Grandma Li sighed with a grin. “Xiaoxia is so pitiful. His first love had barely started before it ended.”

“What first love? Don’t spout nonsense. He is just a young kid.” He Mingshan felt unwell from top to toe.

“Right, pass me the keys to the villa in Wen Shan,” Li Shaobin said suddenly. “I’m going to take Ruan Yang over to ski.”

He Mingshan got someone to bring the keys gloomily. “You always refuse when we ask you to go skiing. Now, you’re even willing to go with Ruan Yang.”

“But of course, Mom. You’re already so old—what’s so fun about going with you guys?” Immediately after Li Shaobin said that, He Mingshan pulled his ears hard.

“Don’t pull them. From now on, only Ruan Yang can pull them.” Li Shaobin turned his face away unhappily.

“Ruan Yang even pulled your ear?” He Mingshan was shocked. Her son had a bad temper. He was unhappy when she pulled his ears, but he actually let Ruan Yang pull them? Could Ruan Yang have already tamed her son?

“Not just my ears; she can pull anywhere she likes.” Li Shaobin slurped on his noodles with glee.

He Mingshan sighed. It looked like her son had been deeply poisoned. “Then are you two going to spend the night there?”

“That’s a must.” The thought of spending the night together lifted the corners of Li Shaobin’s mouth.

He Mingshan could only shake her head. It looked like she had to prepare to be a grandma.

…

At around 3 pm, Li Shaobin arrived at the car park and had been waiting for almost 10 minutes when he finally saw Ruan Yang walking over with a small bag. She grumbled, “You said you wanted to ski but it’s already 3 pm.”

“I know. We’re driving over there tonight and we’ll spend the night there, then we’ll ski tomorrow.” Li Shaobin smiled broadly and revealed his white teeth.

Upon hearing that, Ruan Yang’s eyes widened. “We’re spending the night there? Why didn’t you say so earlier?”

“I didn’t tell you? I thought I did.” Li Shaobin pretended to be innocent. “It’s your fault for hanging up so quickly yesterday.”

As if…

Ruan Yang scoffed. This person must’ve done it on purpose. If she had known about spending the night, she might not have agreed to it.

“You already promised me. You can’t go back on your words.” Li Shaobin blinked with grievance. “I even bought you a new ski set and I pushed aside all my work just so I could go out with you.”

Ruan Yang opened the car door again. “I only packed very few things and I didn’t even prepare any clothes. I’m going up to get some clothes.”

“It’s alright; there’s no need for that. I’ve already got them prepared,” Li Shaobin said eagerly.

“I don’t trust your taste.” Ruan Yang got off the car.

Li Shaobin frowned with frustration, but he was quickly happy again at the thought that she had agreed to go with him.

After waiting for another 20 minutes, Ruan Yang finally came down again with a bigger bag. He grumbled. “You’ve already wasted half an hour. It’s going to be a long journey there.”

“Where is it?” Ruan Yang was curious.

“Wen Shan,” Li Shaobin said. “It’s a two-hour car ride from here. Our family goes there for vacation regularly. You can go during the summer to avoid the heat and in the winter, you can ski and enjoy the hot spring. Do you know how to ski? I can teach you.”

“You’ll have to teach me this time.” Immediately after saying that, Ruan Yang saw Li Shaobin grinning secretly.

…

Wen Shan could be considered a popular scenic spot nearby. Li Shaobin’s family villa was grand and it was near the mountain. It had a huge courtyard and behind the mountain was a huge ski resort.

When the car drove into the courtyard, it was already dark. Li Shaobin took out a bunch of items from the trunk. He had even bought groceries.

When they entered the house, Li Shaobin had already prepared new slippers for Ruan Yang. It was a rare sight to see him so meticulous. “What are we eating for dinner?”

“Hotpot.” Li Xiaoxia shook a packet of hotpot soup base in front of her delightedly. “You had hotpot with Xiaoxia yesterday.”

“You really can be a little childish.” Ruan Yang couldn’t help but laugh. “I ate with Xiaoxia because he’s your nephew. It was all because of you.”

“Really?” Li Shaobin was overjoyed. “You should’ve told me earlier. You made me angry for so long.”

“Who knew you’d be so petty?” Ruan Yang took the soup base. “Alright, since you want to have hotpot, we’ll have hotpot and satisfy you for once in case you complain about having plain soup with me.”

Li Shaobin blushed. He held her hand and said, “I was just spouting nonsense. I love everything you make. Although the soup you make is plain, it’s very nourishing.”

“What do you know about nourishment?” Ruan Yang smiled. “Help me wash the vegetables for the hotpot.”

“Sure, sure.” Li Shaobin agreed immediately.

He helped her eagerly but was chased out of the kitchen after being there for less than three minutes because he ruined all the vegetables and even wasted a lot of the leafy parts.

In the end, Ruan Yang could only do everything by herself. Even though they were having hotpot, preparing the ingredients took almost an hour.

Li Shaobin ate the meat with gusto. Ruan Yang also felt that the meat was rather tasty. She didn’t know where he got the meat from but it was very tender and fresh. However, she only had a few pieces before her face was already flushed red, her forehead perspiring from the spiciness.

Li Shaobin knew she couldn’t take spiciness but he didn’t know it was that bad. “I specifically chose the least spicy soup base.”

“Are you sure it was the least spicy?” Ruan Yang glared at him. Tears shone in her eyes and she looked very pitiful.

Li Shaobin took a deep breath. How could she look so charming even when eating hotpot? “You also had hotpot with Xiaoxia.”

“We had a twin pot. It was spicy on one side and not spicy on the other side.”

“Twin pot…” Li Shaobin felt sour inside. “You had twin pot with a middle school kid.”

“Everyone gets a twin pot nowadays when they eat hotpot outside. You’re so unreasonable.” Ruan Yang took a few large gulps of water.

Li Shaobin moved his lips. “That’s alright; you’ll be used to the spiciness after a few more times.”

Ruan Yang glared at him. “I finally understand why you can’t find a girlfriend. You’re so uncaring.”

“How am I uncaring?” Li Shaobin retorted.

Ruan Yang lowered her head as she ate her vegetables and ignored him.

Li Shaobin talked to her for a while but she didn’t reply at all so he started to panic. He didn’t want to quarrel with her. He was still planning to snuggle with her that night. “I was wrong, alright? We won’t eat anything spicy next time when it’s just the both of us. I’ll listen to you.”

“Let me tell you—I’m very petty.” Ruan Yang glanced at him. “Now that you know you’re in the wrong, clean up after we’re done. I’m a little tired from preparing all this.”

Li Shaobin glanced at the messy table and he lowered his head with frustration but replied with an “mm” after a very long time.

“That’s more like it. Here’s your reward.” Ruan Yang fed him a piece of vegetable.

Li Shaobin didn’t like vegetables but since Ruan Yang was feeding him, he opened his mouth and ate it. It was the first time he found a vegetable so tasty. He felt sweet inside and opened his mouth gleefully again. “Ruan Yang, I want you to feed me again.”

“That was a reward. I’ll feed you again next time if you perform well.” Ruan Yang mixed the vegetables in her bowl and propped her chin up on one hand lazily. Taming this man was as simple as taming a little animal.

…

After dinner, Li Shaobin washed the dishes earnestly and even cleaned the table. He moved to the couch where Ruan Yang was reading and sat beside her. “Ruan Yang, I washed everything up cleanly. Do you want to check?”

Ruan Yang glanced at the dining room and beckoned him. “Come here.”

Li Shaobin’s eyes lit up. He moved over eagerly like a dog that saw a bone. Was he getting a reward again?

Ruan Yang held his hands up and took a look. Then she pulled out some hand cream from her bag and squeezed a substantial amount on the back of his hands as she said, “Applying hand cream after doing the dishes can protect your fingers. Besides, your hands are so dry now that it’s winter.”

“Are they?” Li Shaobin watched as she applied the hand cream for him and it felt as sweet as honey. “I’m a man; I don’t take note of all this.”

Ruan Yang smiled. She patted her thighs. “Lie down here.”

Li Shaobin lay on her thighs obediently. How rare it was for Ruan Yang to invite him to lie on her lap. She smelled too good.

“Your lips are very dry. Why don’t I apply some lip balm for you?” Ruan Yang said as she pulled out a black lip balm and applied a very thick layer on her lips.

“Sure.” Li Shaobin waited obediently. However, he saw her capping the lip balm after she was done with it and was stunned. “Didn’t you say you were going to apply it for me?”

“Yeah, I am, but isn’t it more interesting to apply lip balm like this?” Ruan Yang lowered her head with a grin. He watched in shock as she sealed her lips on his.
