Chapter 1264: 1264
Nalan Chunbo pulled her hand under running tap water to wash the wound .
Wen Shan was shocked by Nalan Chunbo’s gesture . When she looked up, there was no expression on his face but he was frowning slightly .
There was a tiny cut on her finger . After he had washed off the blood, he dragged her out of the kitchen . He dried the injured finger with a towel then wrapped it with a plaster .
Nobody spoke during the whole process, but Wen Shan was trying hard to suppress her overwhelming happiness .
Did this mean he was concerned about her too?
“Don’t force yourself to do something you’re not familiar with,” said Nalan Chunbo indifferently before walking into the kitchen .
Wen Shan said nothing .
She felt like someone had just dumped a bucket of cold water over her head and she could feel the cold and numbness deep in her bones .
She admitted that she did not know how to cook seafood porridge because she had not practiced making it enough .
She just wanted to cook seafood porridge because Nalan Chunbo liked it .
Dejected, Wen Shan held her injured finger while walking slowly to the kitchen door . When she walked in, Nalan Chunbo had already finished preparing the crab meat . However, instead of adding the crab meat to the porridge, he steamed it and cooked the porridge using the same pot .

Wen Shan observed the guy cooking in the kitchen . She leaned against the kitchen door and pondered . If she said something silly like ‘Am I a burden to you?’, Nalan Chunbo would definitely agree .
Thus, she would not dig her own grave .
This man seemed so gentle but why was it so difficult for her to tackle him?
Wen Shan was debating with herself . She had to find another way to take him down .
“Mrs . Bai . ” A voice interrupted Wen Shan’s deep thoughts . It was Uncle He who was calling from the entrance . She quickly went to greet him .

Uncle He was holding a bucket . “Is Mrs . Bai not awake yet? I wanted to thank all of you for yesterday’s help so I brought some little crayfish . They are already cleaned . This young lady likes eating crayfish so you can cook a good meal with these . ”
Wen Shan looked at those fresh live crayfish in the bucket and pouted, “Father Nalan, Uncle He brought over some crayfish . Can we accept it?”
Although she longed to eat those crayfish, the seafood was not meant for her .
Nalan Chunbo walked out of the kitchen . His gaze fell on Wen Shan’s injured finger briefly but he quickly looked away . He turned to Uncle He and declined the offer politely, “Thank you for your kindness . It’s a pity that we don’t have that many ingredients at home so we cannot accept these crayfish . Moreover, my aunt’s stomach isn’t very well and she needs to refrain from eating spicy food . ”
Wen Shan’s smile faded bit by bit at Nalan Chunbo’s words .

On the other hand, Uncle He was not at all offended by Nalan Chunbo’s reply . He uttered, “It is alright . I will bring some steamed ones on another day . Moreover, Ms . Wen’s finger is injured too . She must not eat seafood, otherwise it will trigger inflammation . If you are not in a rush to leave, I will send some food for all of you in a few days . ”
Wen Shan’s smile crept up again after listening to Uncle He’s words . After Uncle He left, she looked at Nalan Chunbo affectionately as he headed back to the kitchen . She said happily, “Although I know you are not doing it for me, I still want to pretend it’s for my sake . ”
The way Wen Shan spoke while smiling to herself made Nalan Chunbo pause, but he regained his composure quickly .
Wen Shan sat comfortably on the sofa outside . She was browsing through Wen Tao and Xiao Yaojing’s social media posts on her phone . Their first wedding photoshoot was taken at a rural school with a few village children . She liked each photo and shared a few of them on her news feed .
Envying other people’s seemingly perfect happiness .
