Chapter 1197: You’re Finally Awake
Perhaps Gu ngng was terribly tired because she had an exceptional sleep this ti and only woke up the second daybreak.
There was a familiar warmth beside her and Gu ngng frowned upon instincts.
It seed like she slept lying next to Elvis but...
She wrapped her arms around Elvis’s waist and touched him, this feeling....
Opening her eyes, she t eyes with Elvis’s dark blue pupils, as warm and dotting as the deep sea. His lazy and husky voice, only unique in the morning, spilled over Gu ngng’s face with his warm breath, “Morning, my Xiao ng.”
After Elvis finished speaking, he lightly kissed Gu ngng’s forehead.
The corners of Gu ngng’s lips curved upwards and she hugged Elvis tightly, burying her face into his chest. Sighing, she said, “You’re finally awake, you lazy bum!”
“Yeah, I’m a lazy bum.” Elvis enjoyed Gu ngng flinging herself into his arms a lot so he allowed her to squirm around in his embrace, as if she could squeeze herself into his heart through his chest.
“It’s so early in the morning, do you have to gross out?” Wabei woke up a day earlier than Elvis and was leaning against the wall, side-eying the mushy couple.
Gu ngng turned around to peer Wabei and sneered fiercely, ignoring him.
After seeing Gu ngng’s fierce little face, Elvis felt that she was extrely adorable so he pinched her face and shook it. Then, he cupped her face and kissed her, saying, “I’ve recovered almost fully, shall we set off after breakfast?”
Gu ngng lifted her face and asked Elvis, looking at him, “You just woke up, shouldn’t you rest for a while?”
“Yeah. I’m fine.”
Gu ngng nodded before standing up to wash up. After that, they ate breakfast together.
In these four days when Elvis and Wabei were unconscious, Fei Rui returned back from the deep oceans. Other than sea salt, he gifted Gu ngng many little items from the sea, such as beautiful sea shells, radiant pearls, prettily-shaped corals and so seafood.
Auretin was not interested in pearls, corals and whatsoever but towards seafood.....yeah, that face-paralysis look with both eyes glowing.
Seafood was different from other food and could not be stored for a long ti so Lea decided to make seafood dishes. Upon seeing how Lea wanted to roast the fish on the tree branch, Gu ngng hurriedly stopped him.
“We had to eat it that way because there was not enough cooking utensils at the beach previously. Now, we’ve everything at ho, why do we still have to eat roasted fish? Hurry, take a pot and boil so water in it.”
“Alright.” Lea did not question why as he just followed Gu ngng’s instructions.
Gu ngng weaved an unusual-looking tray with rattan and placed it in the stone pot as a divider. Then, she moved the fish onto the bamboo plate and swept so sea salt on it before adding ginger slices and grounded chili into its stomach. Finally, she placed the plate into the tray and stead it.
She touched her pulse to estimate the ti. A normal person had a heartbeat of around 75 per minute and in the modern world, cultivated fish would be cooked in seven minutes in boiling water. The at of sea fish was tighter so it would not be cooked fully in seven minutes, 10 minutes should be enough.
Thus, Gu ngng counted every beat and upon counting till the 750th beat, she opened the pot and checked the fish stomach with chopsticks. She noticed that there was still blood streaks near the bones so she covered the pot again and stead for around two minutes before serving the food.
After serving the fish, Gu ngng scooped a ladle of hot oil and poured it over the fish. The scalding crackling sound gave Elvis a huge scare as he almost pounced over to carry Gu ngng away. Luckily, Gu ngng had fast reflexes and before Elvis had the chance to co over, she finished pouring the hot oil and the next second, a fragrant aroma wafted in the air, giving off a fresh and delicious sll.
