"You are down already, just wait a little, the breakfast would soon be ready. "

Liu Wei said and quickly turned to what he was doing. Liling who was thinking it was the chef was extremely surprised that Liu Wei was cooking for her! She felt her heart soften as she watched his sweat filled face.

Taking a good look at the kitchen once more, she couldn"t help laughing, the view before her was quite funny.

"What are you making? "

She asked as she walked towards him, Liu Wei seeing that she was coming in immediately widened his arms to obstruct her view.

"Don"t see... When I"m through, I"ll set the table."

He said nervously. Liling knew that he didn"t want her seeing the concoction he was mixing so she chuckled lightly as she tried finding her way past him.

"Liu Wei, let me see, I can help, you aren"t even half way through and you"re already sweating. See, you are cooking with your phone. obviously, you browsed the cooking method just now. "

Liling who had been wedged by Liu Wei"s arm peeked over it, and pointed at his phone.

Liu Wei, who had just been caught red handed, released him arm and let Liling pa.s.s.
To be frank, he was really having a hard time and he was quite happy that she had come by.

"Liu Wei, what"s the name of this meal? "

Liling frowned slightly as she pointed at the boiling pot. She couldn"t really figure out what was boiling inside. She was still checking out the contents of the pot when Liu Wei suddenly answered.

"Oats. "

Liling turned to look at Liu Wei surprisingly, then she s.h.i.+fted her gaze back to the contents of the pot. After sometime, she smiled widely at Liu Wei.

"Alright!, I"ll teach you how to make a perfect Oatmeal! But first, let me wash this... pap away."

Liu Wei smiled slightly. He had expected her to burst out laughing or mock him for his incompetence, which was what was expected naturally, but rather she had offered to teach him how to make a good oatmeal.

Why wouldn"t I like her when she was just so different from every other person?

Liu Wei had bought so many ingredients which was mainly to make a rich breakfast for her. There was, on the kitchen table, kiwis, flaked coconuts, coconut milk, strawberries, bananas, honey, peanut b.u.t.ter, cinnamon and dark chocolate chips.

Liling smiled as she arranged the ingredients properly. He had a good intention, only that the process had was wrong.

Since he bought coconut milk, Liling didn"t make use of water knowing that the milk would make it taste better.

She told Liu Wei to help out with the slicing of the fruits as she heated the oats.

When Liu Wei was through, he went over to watch her. The mood in the kitchen was very nice, no ambiguous feelings of any kind.

Liling had totally forgotten that she was always apprehensive when she was around him, and Liu Wei, that she had been avoiding him for months.

When Liling finished on the stove, she served the oats in bowls, then added the fruits and honey.

She then placed the bowls on a tray and took it to the dining table, Liu Wei followed her with a tray containing two gla.s.ses and a jug of fresh orange juice.

"So tell me, how does it taste? "

Liling who sat opposite Liu Wei asked as she watched him take a spoonful.

"Mm, it"s perfect."

Liu Wei replied after sometime, smiling at the excited girl in front of him.

"Awnnn, thank you! "

Liling clapped her hands and quickly picked up her spoon to eat.

After the meal, she excused herself and rushed upstairs to get her drugs. When she came back downstairs after taking them, she didn"t find Liu Wei in the dining room. So she walked into the kitchen, only to find him doing the dishes.

"Ah, no, no, you go rest, let me do them. You shouldn"t be was.h.i.+ng plates, Liu Wei!. "

Liling tried to take the plate he was holding from his hand but Liu Wei moved it away.

"No, you are ill, so you rest. The plates aren"t that much, I"ll be through soon."

"No.. Liu Wei, how can you do the dishes? besides I"m not ill, I was just... just give it to me..."

Liling, who didn"t know how to complete her sentence out of embarra.s.sment, stretched out her hand to take the plate from him.

Liu Wei, who was taller than her, lifted it above his head, chuckling lightly.

"If you can reach the plate, I"ll let you do the dishes. "

He said smirking mischievously, he knew that her hand wouldn"t reach it, so he was quite confident.

Liling frowned lightly. She narrowed her eyes at Liu Wei and quickly tiptoed to touch the plate, when her hand almost reached it, Liu Wei tilted it away from her, chuckling at her failed attempt.

Liling continued to try until she stumbled and fell forwards. Liu Wei caught her in his arms and their eyes locked together.

She was very close to him, such that she could feel his breath on her face. Her heartbeat suddenly started racing rapidly.

Liu Wei was feeling the same way, the atmosphere became very tense and at that moment, the only impulse he had was to kiss her.
He quietly dropped the plate on the sink beside him and tilted his head towards her.

Liling didn"t move, she just gulped down hard as her eyes widened in anxiety.

Liu Wei, seeing that she wasn"t refusing him, bent over till he was just few inches from her lips.

Liling didn"t move, or rather she couldn"t move. Her feet stuck to the ground as she watched those gla.s.sy eyes tilt towards her.

Her heart was beating against her chest at an increased rate and she could feel the hairs on her whole body stand.

"What... what... is he trying to do? Does... does...he want to... kiss... "

Before her mind could complete it"s thoughts, she felt a warm touch on her lips.
