In the end, the antler headdress wasn’t thrown into the trash can, it was just thrown out of the room.
Yan Yan slept through the night, got up, had dinner, and went back to sleep.
He took a flight for more than ten hours to country S the day before and was tossed around for a whole night. His physical strength was extremely exhausted, and he had to sleep for a full day to replenish his energy.
When he woke up, it was already the morning after Christmas.
Ji Juechuan postponed his trip for two days and stayed at home with Yan Yan today.
After breakfast, Yan Yan found a movie to watch.
Considering that Yan Yan was still a little uncomfortable, Ji Juechuan wanted him to sit on his lap and volunteered to be a pillow for him.
But Yan Yan didn’t want to sit on it.
He glanced somewhere in Ji Juechuan, his eyes seeming to say, “I won’t be fooled.”
Ji Juechuan felt a little helpless, so he just had to stuff a pillow behind him to make him sit more comfortably.
A movie started to play on the TV. It was a superhero movie made in China. Yan Yan was quickly attracted by the exciting content of the movie.
After watching the first part of the movie, Ji Juechuan helped him play the second part, and the two of them sat on the sofa and watched the movie all morning.
Ji Juechuan left midway to answer a phone call. It was from Lu Ji.
Lu Ji got straight to the point: “Mr. Ji, Xiao Xu said that you have postponed your schedule for the next two days. He was afraid of disturbing you, so he asked me to ask you if you are not feeling well.”
Although he asked this question, Lu Ji had already thought about it and gotten the answer.
A few days ago, Yan Yan came to him and asked for Ji Juechuan’s address in country S. Today, Xiao Xu said that Ji Juechuan had postponed his two days’ itinerary. There was no need to guess. It must be that the two of them were separated for too long and now the newlyweds were busy making out.
But as Ji Juechuan’s old assistant for several years, he still wanted to help Ji Juechuan establish a responsible image in front of the new assistants. In addition, he was not 100% sure, so he made this call.
He originally expected to get an answer from Ji Juechuan saying that he was dealing with personal matters, but he didn’t expect that the person on the phone was straightforward:
“I’m at home with my lover, I’m not free these two days.”
The corner of Lu Ji’s mouth twitched, and he felt that he could hear a hint of showing off.
After hanging up the phone, Ji Juechuan sat back next to Yan Yan.
The movie happened to be at the most thrilling part. As soon as he sat back, Yan Yan leaned over and told him the part he missed when he went to answer the phone.
By the time they finished watching both parts of the movie, it was already noon.
Yan Yan stretched out contentedly, and his loose home clothes exposed part of his waist due to the movement, and there were traces left by Ji Juechuan on it.
He knew nothing about it and didn’t notice Ji Juechuan’s eyes darkening.
“The male protagonist is so handsome. It would be great if there was a third part.” Yan Yan still had some unfinished thoughts.
Ji Juechuan glanced at the person on the TV, and for the first time in the past two days, he didn’t echo his words: “I think it’s normal.”
Yan Yan looked at him in surprise: “Is this normal?”
Ji Juechuan pursed his lips and changed the subject: “What do you want to eat for lunch?”
The topic changed abruptly, but Yan Yan didn’t notice it. He thought seriously: “Let’s cook some home-cooked food at home.”
“You have been in country S for so many days, you should miss domestic cuisine very much.” Yan Yan said to himself.
Ji Juechuan just thought he wanted to eat home-cooked food, so he said: “I’ll ask someone to find a chef.”
Yan Yan pulled him and said, “We can make it ourselves.”
He actually wanted to show Ji Juechuan the dish he had learned from Aunt Zhang before. If a chef was invited, then the dishes he cooked would not be remarkable at all.
Ji Juechuan was a little surprised: “Can you do it?”
He knew that Yan Yan couldn’t even peel fruit, so how could he cook.
Yan Yan nodded and said without humility: “I can cook one dish.”
Ji Juechuan laughed and said, “How can one dish be enough?”
“Can’t you just cook one dish too?” Yan Yan looked up at him, “Just do what you are best at.”
The smile on Ji Juechuan’s lips froze.
“No?” Yan Yan’s tone was a little disappointed.
“Okay.” Ji Juechuan looked a little complicated, but he still agreed.
“Then let’s go to the nearby supermarket now!” Yan Yan immediately became excited again and ran into the room to change clothes.
Ji Juechuan picked up his phone and sent a message to Lu Ji.
[Help me find some of the simplest recipes.]
Lu Ji replied, “Understood.”
Soon, several links were sent over.
Lu Ji: [Mr. Ji, these recipes are very simple and can even be made with your hands.]
Ji Juechuan clicked it and took a look. The steps were indeed very few, so it shouldn’t be difficult.
Yan Yan changed clothes and came out of the room, hugged his arm, and suddenly remembered something: “Husband, don’t you have to work these two days?”
“No.”
The reason why he was so busy in the past few days was because Ji Juechuan wanted to go back to China to see Yan Yan quickly, so he made a tight schedule. Now that Yan Yan was by his side, even if he postponed his trip for two days, he won’t delay anything at all.
Yan Yan felt relieved and happily went to the supermarket with Ji Juechuan.
There was a supermarket not far away from home. Yan Yan remembered the materials Aunt Zhang told him and quickly bought everything he needed.
Ji Juechuan took out his cell phone and took a look at it. He memorized the list of materials and successfully bought everything.
After returning home, Yan Yan went to the kitchen first and processed the purchased materials on the cooking table.
Because he had learned from Aunt Zhang step by step, he quickly processed the ingredients, and in less than half an hour, a fragrant dish was ready.
Although there were some bumps in Ji Juechuan’s cooking process, it was still smooth in the end because of the “made by your hands” recipe found by Lu Ji.
After the two dishes were served on the table, Yan Yan suddenly thought of something important.
He blinked at Ji Juechuan: “Husband, we didn’t buy any food.”
“…”
Ji Juechuan put on his coat and went to a nearby restaurant to buy two more dishes.
After Assistant Xu heard from Lu Ji that Ji Juechuan was fine and had postponed his trip just to spend time with his lover at home, he went to the door with documents.
He was previously worried that Ji Juechuan’s postponement was due to health reasons, so he had been hesitant to bother him, but now he was relieved to send the documents.
The door opened after knocking twice. The person who opened the door was Ji Juechuan.
Seeing what he was holding, Ji Juechuan raised his chin toward the living room and said, “Put it on the table.”
“Okay.”
Assistant Xu nodded. As soon as he walked in, he noticed that the house had changed.
When he came here several times before, this house looked like its owner was well-organized, but it also felt deserted and lifeless, but this time there was a big change.
The walls and windows of the house were decorated with Christmas decorations. A prose novel was thrown on the sofa, a light-colored coat was draped on the back of the sofa, the pillow seemed to have been sat on recently, and there were some wrinkles on it, and a cute antler headdress sat on a nearby cabinet.
In just two days, the house felt completely different.
Assistant Xu put the document on the table and looked back.
Ji Juechuan was clearing away the dishes on the dining table, bending down to put the dishes into the dishwasher. His tall and straight figure did the housework without appearing obtrusive, but with a calm elegance, as if he was enjoying the process.
Assistant Xu was a little stunned when he saw this scene, and then he noticed another figure on the balcony.
He could only see a silhouette of the person on the balcony, but he could still see that it was a beautiful young man. He was slightly bent over, holding a watering can to water the plants.
The wrist exposed from the young man’s cuff was as white as snow, but there were a few red marks on it, like dots of red plum blossoms blooming in the snow.
Assistant Xu quickly looked away and hurried towards the door.
When he was about to close the door, he heard Ji Juechuan’s voice from the direction of the balcony.
The voice that had always been emotionless now spoke with a low smile: “Baby, use warm water to water the flowers in winter.”
Another pleasant voice exclaimed: “It’s frozen!”
Laughter spread from the balcony. It was obviously just an ordinary thing, but it seemed to be full of freshness to them.
Assistant Xu paused at the door for a while before closing the door for them.
