Chapter 1048: Chapter 1053: Not Only Warm, But Also Heartwarming 2 Chapter 1048: Chapter 1053: Not Only Warm, But Also Heartwarming 2 Beiming Yu was doing his best to please him. When he stood, he gently wiped the corner of his lips. Watching the man whose face was flushed but had a look of desperation, Beiming Yu angrily pulled off his pants and carried him back to the bedroom.
Gu Qingxin received a call from Beiming Han. She rushed to the window and saw a car parked at the intersection. From afar, she could also see the man standing by the car, leaning against it.
Gu Qingxin asked him to wait for her for a while, then hung up and ran into the kitchen. The water had been heated up in advance. Gu Qingxin poured the water into the pot and dumped the dumplings she had wrapped herself into it.
Lin Yin asked if she needed any help. Gu Qingxin declined, saying that this was the first time she was cooking dumplings for Beiming Han on New Year's Eve and she wanted to do it all by herself.
With a spoon in her hand, she stirred the water, watching the dumplings gradually float to the surface, cooked to plump perfection. Gu Qingxin's face broke into a sweet smile.
The dumplings were cooked. Gu Qingxin turned off the fire and transferred all the dumplings into a thermal container.
Having covered the thermal container, Gu Qingxin ran to change her clothes. With the thermal container in one hand and the sweater she had got for him in the other, she said something to her mother and left the house.
Gu Qingxin trotted all the way to Beiming Han who, upon seeing her running towards him with something in her hands, also began to approach her.
In her haste, Gu Qingxin did not notice a brick protruding from the pavement. Her foot caught on it and she started to stumble forward.
In that instant, Gu Qingxin thought that she was done for. She was bound to hit the ground. However, she didn't mind taking a fall herself, but the dumplings she was carrying would be ruined!
Just when she thought her fate was sealed, a pair of strong arms caught her and pulled her into an embrace.
“Are you alright?” Beiming Han, holding her in his arms, asked, frowning at her.
“I'm fine. We have to get going quickly before my mother sees us.” Gu Qingxin hurried him along.
Beiming Han, “…”
Despite feeling somewhat miffed, he carried her to the car nonetheless.
Once inside the car, Gu Qingxin set the things aside and took off the scarf around her neck.
“What's this?” Beiming Han inquired about the two items she had brought.
“These are dumplings I made for you. Try them.” Gu Qingxin removed her coat and opened the thermal container.
Steam wafted from the container, which was filled with countless plump, cooked dumplings.
Looking at the dumplings, Beiming Han felt a warmth spreading in his chest.
“Oh no.” Gu Qingxin suddenly exclaimed.
“What's wrong?” Beiming Han looked up at her anxiously.
“I was in such a rush that I forgot to bring chopsticks.” Gu Qingxin said, frowning in annoyance.
“Let's buy a pair from a restaurant at the roadside.”
“Alright!”
With the problem resolved, Gu Qingxin immediately relaxed and smiled.
Ye Qi brought them a pair of chopsticks.
Beiming Han picked up a dumpling and bit into it.
“Careful, it's hot.” Gu Qingxin hastily blew on it for him.
“Is it good?”
She watched him chew, becoming nervous when he stopped.
“These are the best dumplings I've ever had.” Beiming Han ate one and immediately reached for another.
He hadn't eaten much that night at Jade Garden. In fact, ever since he returned to Jade Garden, he had never had his fill.
Having her culinary skills recognized was indeed a joyous event.
Especially when it was the man she liked who had praised her. Yes, Gu Qingxin admitted to herself, she had fallen for him!
