Chapter 399: Chapter 399 A Bit of Joy (1) Chapter 399: Chapter 399 A Bit of Joy (1) After all, the Red Spirit Jade Marrow was here.
There was also that black stone on the table, made of the sa material as the Mysterious Dragon Box.
The one Qin Yize had brought back from the riverbed.
Gu Qiaoqiao was preparing to carve the cheetah he wanted.
Because in so ti, Grandpa was preparing to send her to Yubao Square.
However, there were still so matters that hadn’t been dealt with, so they had to wait a bit longer.
Otherwise, according to his plan, he would have had Gu Qiaoqiao start working right after the recognition banquet ended.
Because Yubao Square and the Jade Carving Workshop were to be entrusted to Gu Qiaoqiao in the future.
The night was fading, and a sumr breeze was blowing…
Gu Qiaoqiao was carving the black stone under the lamp.
Qin Yize, who had been absent for a few days, stood sowhat dazedly by the door, watching the scene before him.
The delicate figure, set against the dim yellow light, she was looking down, and from his angle, he could only see Gu Qiaoqiao’s earnest side profile.
Yet it was breathtakingly beautiful.
Suddenly, a familiar feeling ca rushing towards him.
As if, in so dream, he had dreamt of such a scene.
He couldn’t help but frown, he lowered his head, looking at the small bowl of fruit ice cream he was holding, and pursed his lips.
This was specially brought back for Gu Qiaoqiao by him.
He was always thorough in his actions.
When purchasing, he bought five servings.
Having more was always better than less.
But he hadn’t expected that Xiao Yu was also here.
He inwardly sighed with relief.
If he had only bought two servings, Xiao Yu definitely would have burst into tears.
Luckily, he had foreseen this.
Gu Qiaoqiao seed to sense sothing, and as she turned her head, she saw Qin Yize standing at the doorway.
Gu Qiaoqiao curled her lips, “You’re here.”
“Mhm,” Qin Yize responded and then walked in leisurely.
Then he sat to the left of Gu Qiaoqiao.
He looked down at the black stone, and in that mont, Qin Yize felt sowhat bewildered.
Gu Qiaoqiao continued her movents, yet still asked, “Have you eaten?”
Qin Yize nodded his head, “I have.”
Whenever these two t, their conversation was almost always—You’re back. Have you eaten? And the like.
This ti was no exception.
Gu Qiaoqiao then fell silent.
Usually, when she was carving, she was completely focused.
The room’s atmosphere beca quiet.
Holding the ice cream, Qin Yize softly said, “Qiaoqiao, take a break, finish the ice cream then continue carving.”
“In a bit,” Gu Qiaoqiao said without lifting her head, “There are so lines here that I can’t put down right now.”
Qin Yize’s eyebrows twitched.
He had intended to continue persuading Gu Qiaoqiao.
But a thought struck him, and he hesitated no further, opening the lid on the small bowl right away.
Then he scooped a spoonful of ice cream and brought it seriously to Gu Qiaoqiao’s mouth, saying earnestly, “It will lt soon and won’t taste good.”
The words “Let feed you,” ultimately went unspoken.
Gu Qiaoqiao felt a coolness touch her lips, and before her eyes was a spoonful of ice cream with cherry and raisin.
Red, white, and green, mixed together, pleasing to the eye.
Then she followed the direction of the spoon-holding hand.
Qin Yize looked calm, his gaze serious as he watched her, then he brought the ice cream closer to her petal-like lips.
Gu Qiaoqiao blinked, opened her mouth, and ate the spoonful of ice cream.
Cool and sweet, with the aroma of milk and fruit.
Delicious.
It was the fruit ice cream from that dessert shop he had taken her to last ti.
As Gu Qiaoqiao swallowed, Qin Yize inexplicably swallowed as well.
