Chapter 1599: Saying Okay to Everything

“What about vegetables? Are there any you don’t like?” Han Zhuoling asked.

s.h.i.+ Xiaoya thought about it and said, “I don’t eat celery, not because I don’t like it actually. I just heard that it’s easier for the skin to become tanner if you eat a lot of celery. I don’t know if it’s true, but anyway, just to be safe, I usually avoid eating it.”

Han Zhuoling chuckled. He did not expect that she would care so much about her appearance. “And?”

“And… I don’t really like okra. I find that gooey texture on the inside a little gross,” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya said.

“That’s quite coincidental. I don’t like it either, forgot to say it yesterday.” Han Zhuoling nodded and made a mental note about it.

Actually, he had no personal opinion about okra.

After noting down s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s favorite food, he asked again, “Then what do you want to eat tonight?”

s.h.i.+ Xiaoya said embarra.s.sedly, “I’m treating you to a meal, so of course I will prioritize what you like to eat.”

“There’s no conflict. Both you and I like spicy food. Aside from the food that both of us don’t like to eat, everything else is fine.” Han Zhuoling pushed the trolley and entered the supermarket with s.h.i.+ Xiaoya.

They went to the vegetable section first and saw the premium grade vegetables on the chiller shelves.

The vegetables on the chiller shelves were all organic and had no fertilizers used on them. They were also neatly packed and put into boxes.

“There’s bok choy at home and also lettuce, potato, broccoli, and baby Chinese cabbage. Is there anything else you’d like to eat?” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya asked.

Thinking of how s.h.i.+ Xiaoya would not be home for the next few days, Han Zhuoling said, “Then let’s not buy vegetables anymore. The vegetables in your house are enough for us to eat.”

Or else, if they bought even more and left it in her fridge, even if they did not spoil when she returned, it would not be fresh anymore.

s.h.i.+ Xiaoya did not think of this, actually, but she still nodded. They then moved on to the seafood section ahead.

They happened to see that there was fresh salmon that had just arrived. The whole salmon was placed on display, with a chef specializing in preparing j.a.panese bento cuisine handling it.

“Do you like to eat raw salmon?” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya asked as she stared at the salmon, her eyes sparkling.

What was there for Han Zhuoling not to understand?

Seeing the sparkle in her eyes, he subconsciously wished it would not go away. He nodded and said, “I like it. Let’s buy some.”

Han Zhuoling followed s.h.i.+ Xiaoya over and chose a slice of thick and fatty belly meat. They also bought some other things, like herring with capelin roe, tuna sas.h.i.+mi, surf clam sas.h.i.+mi, and octopus sas.h.i.+mi.

They were all things that s.h.i.+ Xiaoya liked to eat.

“There’s fresh wasabi here,” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya said in surprise.

For customers to see it conveniently, the supermarket took care to display the wasabi at the j.a.panese cuisine section.

The wasabi was packaged into individual bags and covered with cling wrap.

s.h.i.+ Xiaoya took one and said, “Grinding it at home to eat on the spot will taste much nicer than those readymade ones.”

“Okay.” Han Zhuoling smiled and nodded.

He did not realize that he was smiling more often than usual today. Ever since he saw s.h.i.+ Xiaoya, his smile had never really faded.

Especially when he saw s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s sparkling smiling face. No matter what she said, he would not bear to harbor any thoughts of rejection.

Towards the end, he did not even register what s.h.i.+ Xiaoya actually said.

Anyway, as long as she pointed at something with her eyes sparkling brightly, Han Zhuoling only had one word to say: “Okay.”

Buy buy buy.

“Let’s make a mala seafood hodgepodge, okay?” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya asked as she was suddenly inspired when she pa.s.sed by the seafood section.

Han Zhuoling really liked hearing her use the word “us,” which she’d unwittingly mentioned.

He just felt that listening to that made them sound close, which sounded nice.

“Okay.” Han Zhuoling still gave this reply.

“Do you like to eat octopus?” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya asked.
