Chapter 424: – Fish
Spending ti with Xia Tian was actually pretty nice, at least it felt comfortable for Lin Jin.
Because there was an extra servant. Yeah.
It was just like with Liu Shengqi back then, Lin Jin kept bossing Xia Tian around. But Xia Tian wasn’t a big M like Liu Shengqi, who would take the initiative to buy things for Lin Jin without her even asking. As for this Xia Tian person, even when Lin Jin asked him to go get vinegar, soy sauce, or whatever, he’d always co up with so excuse to avoid it.
However, since Xia Tian had eaten the breakfast Lin Jin made with her own hands and was also still hanging out at her place, no matter what excuse he tried, Lin Jin always found a way to make him go downstairs to buy what she needed.
Xia Tian went downstairs to buy ingredients for lunch, but he had no clue how to pick them out. In the end, Lin Jin waited for half an hour only to see him co back with a bunch of slly fish and rotten shrimp… Of course, it wasn’t really rotten. Though the sll was bad and the stuff really didn’t look great. The crab was too soft, he didn’t ask the seller to clean the fish, and as for the vegetables, it was too old.
"You’ve definitely soone who has never bought groceries as a child." The corners of Lin Jin’s mouth twitched as she looked at the ingredients Xia Tian had brought back. She sighed, "Don’t you know to ask the seller to clean the fish for you?"
"The seller did ask if I wanted help with that." Xia Tian’s expression was a bit awkward "But I thought if they handled it, they might skimp on the weight. And I didn't know how you wanted it done, anyway."
"You’re not not stupid." Lin Jin had nothing to say to Xia Tian. She could only deal with the fish herself.
However, Lin Jin never liked eating fish, and she had never cleaned one in her life. Doing this for the first ti had her body all tense. The fish’s tail kept wagging back and forth. She firmly pressed down on the still alive fish with one hand while carefully holding a knife in the other hand, trying to cut open its belly.
But the fish wasn’t dead yet. It was still moving and its scales were very slippery.
Maybe it was stimulated by the blade, but the fish’s thrashing beca even more fierce. Just now, Lin Jin could still hold it down with her hand, but the mont the knife touched it, the fish wriggled free from her grasp and leapt straight into the sink. With the fish in the sink, Lin Jin couldn’t react in ti and accidentally cut her thumb.
F*ck! It hurts!
Lin Jin looked down at the blood slowly flowing from her thumb. Feeling the sting of the cut, and she was completely dumbfounded.
She clearly felt it was quite stable just now. How did her knife hit suddenly miss?
Xia Tian, bored with nothing to do, wandered into the kitchen. He saw Lin Jin staring blankly at sothing, while the fish that was supposed to be getting gutted was now energetically flopping around in the sink.
"What happened?" Xia Tian walked over and stood next to Lin Jin. When he looked down, he imdiately noticed the blood coming out of her thumb. "You’re bleeding, why are you still dazed here?!"
Lin Jin raised her head to look up at Xia Tian and actually saw a third expression she’d never seen before from this iceberg.
"Why do you look so worried?" Lin Jin saw Xia Tian’s frowning face and, for so reason, she couldn’t help but burst out laughing "Wow! Are you showing care for ?"
"I an, why do you look so nonchalant when you’re bleeding?" The expression on Xia Tian’s face quickly disappeared. He grabbed Lin Jin’s bleeding hand and ran it under the water for a few seconds before asking "Do you have bandaids at ho?"
"Probably not." Lin Jin was a bit stunned as she looked at her hand being held by Xia Tian. She then glanced at his expressionless but obviously nervous face, and didn’t know what to say. She just stood there in a daze and let him lead her to the living room.
"I'll go down and buy so for you. You be careful."
After saying a few words, Xia Tian hurriedly ran downstairs.
Was there sothing wrong with this guy? Lin JIn scratched her head with her uninjured hand, completely unable to understand Xia Tian’s actions.
It was just a small cut. Why was he so worked up?
As soone who had been cooking and chopping vegetables since she was a child, while Lin Jin’s hadn’t been "tempered a thousand tis
