Blossoming Flowers

Chapter 151 - Feeding The Young Master

Han Qingshan was slightly startled when he felt the slender arms wrap around his waist, but upon looking down and seeing her worried expression as she pressed her head against his back, he felt his heart melting into a puddle.

He then continued the conversation with renewed energy. He had been ready to throw in the towel and accept a loss from the investment he had made before. But now, after feeling the warmth of Jiang Yingyue, he felt everything was possible.

Jiang Yingyue could feel that Han Qingshan's mood was lifted drastically, and a gentle smile erupted on her face as she was about to release him. But the hand that had previously been in his pocket held her hands in place around his waist, almost asking for her to keep the same position.

Sensing his intention, Jiang Yingyue's face flushed red, but she did not object and continued to stay that way, holding on to him, and leaning against his back.

It took him a full half hour of talking before the conversation finally ended, and by then, it was past dinner time. The food that Jiang Yingyue had bought was cold by now.

"Do you have a microwave oven?" she asked as she wondered where to reheat the food. She would not let him starve.

Han Qingshan finally picked up on the scent of food in the air and looked at his desk where the two containers were placed.

"They have one in the tea kitchen on this floor," he said. "I will get Song Liwei to come and reheat it for us. But when did it arrive here?"

"I went to buy it when you were too busy," Jiang Yingyue said with a brilliant smile on her face, which made Han Qingshan feel incredibly honored that she had thought about him and even spent some of the very little money she had on him.

But at the same time, he felt guilty. He had been so preoccupied with work that he had not even noticed that she had gone away.

As soon as this thought flickered in his mind, Han Qingshan felt incredibly uncomfortable, and he quickly swore to himself to pay more attention to Jiang Yingyue.

Jiang Yingyue did not mind. She knew he was busy working, and this was why she had rushed to find food for him. She wanted to be of assistance to him and not just a decorative piece to stand by his side.

Song Liwei came back inside the office, took the food and went to the kitchen to heat it. The food was the same as the one she had bought for the secretary and Song Liwei, taking the assistant by surprise.

He had expected that she would buy something special for Han Qingshan, but she had purchased the same food for all of them, showing no signs of favoritism.

Jiang Yingyue was unaware that Song Liwei felt a mix of complex emotions just because of the food she had bought. She was too busy watching Han Qingshan sort the papers so that they could use his desk to eat at.

It only took a few minutes to reheat the food, and by the time Han Qingshan had sorted and stacked his papers, the food was brought back again.

Han Qingshan looked at it and was slightly surprised. It was street food, something he would usually never eat because it was unsanitary. But knowing that Jiang Yingyue had purchased it for him, the scent suddenly smelled enticing, and the food looked delicious.

Han Qingshan took his chopsticks and began eating slowly while observing Jiang Yingyue, who also ate carefully and with elegance.

Looking at her enjoying the food like this, he could not help but feel that she was adorable.

Suddenly, he had an urge to eat her food. Since she was eating with such a blissful expression on her face, could it be that her food tasted better?

He snickered as he reached out with his chopsticks and sneakily stole a bite from her box.

Noticing it, Jiang Yingyue raised her head and looked at Han Qingshan quizzically. What had gotten over him to eat from her portion, instead of his own, suddenly? It was identical after all.

Han Qingshan tasted the food, and his face went into a brilliant smile that blossomed like a thousand flowers.

Seeing his incomprehensible reaction, Jiang Yingyue was feeling surprised and somewhat confused. What exactly was the point of stealing her food? Was he starving?

Still, she did not mind and ate a bit of her food, before noticing the longing expression on Han Qingshan's face while looking at her food.

Chuckling, she picked up a portion with her chopsticks and placed it in front of his mouth.

"Don't just look at it," she laughed. "If you want to eat it, just go ahead, I won't be able to finish a full portion anyway."

Hearing this, and seeing that she was feeding him, Han Qingshan suddenly felt that spring had come early and that flowers were blooming in his mind.

He quickly opened his mouth, allowing her to feed him, and with a slight shake of her head and some resignation, she placed the food she had picked up into his mouth.

After doing this, she continued to eat her food, but when she glanced at Han Qingshan he looked like an abandoned puppy, and she could only smile wryly as she continued to feed him her food.

Soon her food was finished, while his box was still filled, so Jiang Yingyue replaced her own box with his and continued to feed him and eat on her own.. In the end, they finished both portions, and Han Qingshan was ecstatic after being fed so much by Jiang Yingyue.
