Chapter 118: So Good He Cried
Stinky Little Sister’s bright eyes shone warmly and were filled with anticipation.
Little No. 5 Lu Xingran, who had just stuffed his bag into his desk and was about to bury his head in his arms and sleep, felt awkward again. He wanted to say no, but his sensitive nose caught the aroma of breakfast!
It was very fragrant, and gave off a naturally refreshing feeling. He was hungry!
Furthermore, he hadn’t eaten breakfast before he went out. He had originally planned to randomly grab something outside, but in the end…
“Since you’ve specially brought it for me, then I’ll eat it.” He was just forcing himself.
Little Lu No. 5 took the breakfast from his little sister with a proud look on his face. He opened the exquisite little bamboo bag with slender fingers and took out a heavy dark red insulated food container and a small red wooden box.
There were rows of exquisite and cute glutinous rice balls in the small box. Each had a cute, different expression and were adorned with different colors. They were appropriately fresh, tender and plump, and all of them seemed to be valiantly waving at him with all their might as if to say, “Come and eat me, eat me~”
He snuck a glance at his little sister beside him. Little No. 5 Lu Xingran thought that he would just take one bite, and that was it. He didn’t want his stinky little sister to think that he didn’t respect her.
However, when little Fifth Brother casually took a bite —
It was as if the rice ball was taking an unhurried stroll in his mouth. The gluttonous worms that hadn’t been especially hungry were roused as they all curled up and clamored in his mouth: One more bite, one more bite!
Little Lu No. 5 doubted life. Wasn’t this… Wasn’t this just a d*mn glutinous rice ball?
It was actually smiling at him?
Looking at the sweet smile on the little glutinous rice ball, which looked like it was winking after he bit off one side, a certain fifth brother’s face unconsciously heated up. He turned around to throw it away, but his body was honest as he picked it up, took another bite, and then another.
There was an indescribably sour feeling!
“This was wrapped in bamboo leaves and simmered. Inside are steamed cakes with red dates, barley, nuts and minced meat. I used a special simmering technique. It’s probably different from what you usually eat, right?
“How’s the taste?”
Seeing the sad look on little Fifth Brother’s face, the little girl was worried that it wasn’t to his liking, so she stealthily probed for his opinion.
“Oh, just so-so.”
Little No. 5 Lu pursed his lips and stuffed two more glutinous rice balls into his mouth. His eyes were red, like he was about to cry, and he proudly turned to the side.
“Then, eat this congee. I didn’t prepare anything to drink since there’s congee; don’t choke.”
Lu An wondered what was wrong with this brother of hers.
“Oh.”
Little Fifth Brother pursed his lips and made a sound in reply. He obediently opened the food container with slender fingers, and a thick fragrance instantly filled the air!
It was a sense of satisfaction which hit him in the face!
Little Fifth Brother gave a light sniff. He picked up the ladle that his little sister had placed inside the bowl earlier, and scooped up a bite to eat.
“Sob!”
Before he could swallow it, little Fifth Brother pursed his lips and cried.
“Did you buy this?”
Little Fifth Brother immediately lowered his head and ate the congee. He ate the congee at a steady pace so that no one would notice his emotions. At the same time, he casually asked his little sister the question.
However, his little sister answered frankly, “No, I made it myself.
“When I woke up in the morning, I washed the rice, added some cooking wine and let it sit. After I was done exercising, I cooked it. How is it? It shouldn’t be bad, right?”
