Chapter 86
Fortunately, there are still a few days before Ji Zebei's birthday.

However, it seems too shabby to send only chocolates.

She scratched her head anxiously, because she didn't quite trust her craft, she needed to make two preparations, in case the chocolate was not made successfully, she could still give a gift.

But what gift should I give?
I really want to give couple rings!
If he knew it was a couple ring, would Ji Zebei refuse to accept it?

Or, secretly only give him the men's ring, and keep the women's ring for herself, and she will wear it after the relationship is formalized?
She pondered about the birthday gift until 02:30 in the morning, and finally she was too sleepy, and went back to her room to sleep in a daze.

When I woke up, it was already past eight o'clock in the morning.

She got up, washed up quickly, and immediately knocked on the door of Ji Zebei's house, but no one answered.

He went out so early?

She knew that he was not in charge of buying seafood recently, so she stopped going out at five in the morning.

Disappointed and ready to go home, the elevator dinged. She glanced at the elevator room and saw Ji Zebei coming out of the elevator.

"Mr. Ji, where have you been?"

"seafood market."

"Have you gone to buy seafood for the store?"

"The chef complained that what the staff bought was not fresh, so I had to go there myself."

"I also said to help you make breakfast, but you were not here."

"I ate it, how about you?"

She shook her head.

As if expecting this to happen, the man took out the key to open the door, and threw it to her, "I prepared your portion, come and eat."

"Oh."

She followed Ji Zebei into the house, and the man entered the kitchen, and brought out her breakfast, the omelette and soy milk were still hot.

After taking the breakfast from the man, she asked, "Is there any sugar?"

She is used to adding sugar to her soy milk, so it tastes better when it is sweet.

"It's been sugared."

She giggled, sat down at the dining table with breakfast, and ate egg pancakes in big mouthfuls.

Ji Zebei seemed to be aware of her appetite, and left her four egg pancakes, which filled a large glass of soy milk.

The omelette tasted great, but when she took a sip of soy milk, she almost spit it out.

too salty.

What Ji Zebei added to the soy milk should not be sugar, but salt.

She looked at Ji Zebei in surprise. The man had already sat down on the sofa in the living room, put on his glasses, and looked down at the newspaper.

"Are you sure you added sugar?" She asked outside.

The man didn't even bother to lift his eyelids, so he replied lightly, "It's candy."

"..."

Obviously salt.

"You added too much."

The man responded indifferently, "Is there any? I don't think it's too sweet."

She felt something was wrong.

This soy milk is too salty to drink, it's too salty.

Thinking of Ji Zebei adding salt into soy milk as sugar, she couldn't help shivering.

At the same time, she remembered that she had a barbecue with Ji Zebei not long ago, the man ate a whole bunch of green peppers, but there was no reaction at all.

The barbecued green peppers were famously spicy, even she, who likes spicy food, couldn't eat the whole bunch in one sitting, but Ji Zebei finished it without blushing or panting.

Does he have no sense of taste?

"I think it's too sweet." She deliberately shouted out again.

Ji Zebei put down the newspaper in his hand, got up and walked towards her.

Picking up the cup in her hand, she took a sip of soy milk, paused for a few seconds, and said, "It's okay, do you think it's very sweet?"

She froze for a moment and nodded.

He really couldn't taste it.

"Did you have a drink this morning?"

The man smiled, "Not as big as yours."

"You remember to drink more water."

The man looked at her with strange eyes, she laughed and said, "This soy milk is too sweet, drink more water, try to dilute the sugar, otherwise it will be easy to gain weight."

He drank a whole glass of salty soy milk, although it was not as big as hers, but too much salt was very bad for the body.

The man said 'hmm', turned and went back to the living room, continuing to read the newspaper.

She didn't dare to drink that cup of soy milk again. After finishing the omelette, she poured herself a glass of water.

After eating and drinking enough, she cleared the dishes, poured out the remaining soy milk, then poured a large glass of water in front of Ji Zebei, and said with a smile, "Be sure to drink more water."

Ji Zebei: ...

At noon, she was in charge of washing and chopping vegetables, and Ji Zebei was in charge of cooking. When eating, Lu Ran found that every dish was sweet instead of salty.

The man apparently confused the sugar bowl with the salt bowl.

The spice jars in his house are all exactly the same, and she has been in and out of his kitchen a lot lately. After the seasoning is used, the salt and sugar bowls may be misplaced.

No wonder Ji Zebei didn't let anyone enter his kitchen casually. Everything in it was neatly arranged, and the seasoning jars were placed in order.

Because she confused the position of the seasoning jar, Ji Zebei mistook salt for sugar and sugar for salt.

While washing the dishes and cleaning the kitchen, she secretly opened the two cans and tasted them separately. After separating out the sugar and salt, she changed the positions of the two cans.

After finishing her work, she walked out of the kitchen and found Ji Zebei asleep on the sofa.

Subconsciously, she stepped lightly, entered Ji Zichen's room, took a blanket to cover him, and walked out the door lightly.

After returning home and putting on her coat, she went out and took a taxi directly to Ye Zhian's place.

Ye Zhian had a very serious cold and didn't feel like cooking by himself, so he ordered takeaway at noon, which was very light porridge.

After waiting for him to finish his meal, he told him to take the medicine, and the two sat on the sofa in the living room.

Ye Zhian deliberately stayed far away from her, and would cover his mouth and nose with a tissue when he sneezed, saying that he didn't want to infect her.

She smiled and said, "Why did you suddenly catch a cold?"

"Don't mention it, I did it all myself."

Lu Ran asked the reason, and Ye Zhian was surprised when she told about the fact that she had just slept all night in Ji Fanzhai's lounge.

"Xu Jiajia just put you there and left you alone?"

Ye Zhian felt wronged, "That's right, that woman is too cruel."

"Speaking of Xu Jiajia, she actually looked for me last night."

Ye Zhi'an was taken aback, "What is she looking for you for?"

"Let me stay away from Ji Zebei."

"..."

"She also said that you have liked me since high school and have had a crush on me for many years."

Hearing this, Ye Zhi'an couldn't help laughing with a 'puchi', and almost spit out snot bubbles.

Lu Ran quickly handed him the paper, and he took it, blowing his nose and laughing, "Did she tell you that?"

"Ah."

"Don't listen to her nonsense."

"Of course I don't believe her. I know she said that on purpose."

Ye Zhi'an threw the crumpled paper into the trash can next to him, sucked his red nose, and murmured: "She is so stubborn, and she loves to play tricks."

Lu Ran remained silent. She didn't know much about Xu Jiajia, so she couldn't say anything.

"It's been so many years. If Lao Ji liked her, they would have been together a long time ago. Why wait until now, but she just doesn't understand the truth."
