The female supporting character, yet a charmer to everyone

Chapter 10 - substitute romance 10



The temperature has been high for the past few days, and the air in the dormitory is very dry because the air conditioning is on day and night.

Yu Huan woke up with a sore and swollen throat. Yan Yi took her out to buy some delicious pork buns, but she was still in a bad mood.

There was no class in the afternoon, so Qin Yunye came to pick her up and take her out to dinner.

As soon as he saw her, he could tell that something was wrong with her voice. He held her face in his hands and observed her complexion: ‘Is your throat not feeling well?

The dormitory is so dry,” Yu Huan said listlessly as she lay in the back seat of the car, not wanting to talk.

Qin Yunye simply told the driver to change the route and went to the doctor first to get some medicine.

The original plan was to take the little girl to a restaurant to eat Hunan food. The food was ordered and there were the spicy chicken wings she wanted, but the doctor said it was best not to eat spicy food.

Qin Yunye took Yu Huan back to where he usually lived, a small villa in a very nice area.

He watched as the little girl took her medicine, found the remote control for the TV she had never used before, and let her watch her favourite programme before going into the kitchen.

Yu Huan was even more interested in the fact that Qin Yunye could cook.

As the eldest son of a wealthy family, he had been the heir apparent since childhood, had received an elite education, and his time could be measured in money… How could such a person cook?

She tossed the remote aside and followed like a little tail into the kitchen to watch Qin Yunye wash the ingredients.

‘Do you usually cook for yourself?’ she wondered.

‘No. I wasn’t planning on coming home for lunch, so I didn’t ask the maid to come over. Qin Yunye sliced the beef with a knife. His posture was not very skilled, but his movements were steady, giving the impression that even if he had never cooked before, he could still put together a table full of food.

Yu Huan tried to help a little, but apart from getting her hands wet and wiping them on Qin Yunye’s body, and walking back and forth and tripping over Qin Yunye’s legs, it didn’t have any effect.

Ancestor,’ Qin Yunye suddenly shouted.

It was a very natural exclamation, with a real tone of helplessness that almost embarrassed Yu Huan.

Yu Huan, who was about to stuff some coriander into the scallion leaves, was stopped. She put her hands behind her back as if nothing had happened and muttered, “I’m just here to keep you company in case you get lonely.

Thank you,” Qin Yunye said as she put down the knife, wiped her hands and said calmly, “If you’re willing to sit on the sofa and watch some TV, I’ll be more efficient.

Yu Huan didn’t want to do what he wanted and asked in return, ‘So you don’t want me to keep you company?

Before she could finish her sentence, Qin Yunye suddenly turned around, his cool fingers, which had just touched the water, cupping her face.

I want to,” he said very seriously, “but I want to make you eat faster so that you don’t feel so bad.

He kissed her forehead lightly, wrapped his palm around the back of her head and stroked her hair as if comforting a child. He asked her in a low voice, ‘Will you wait for me here?

Yu Huan felt like there was a bouncing candy in her heart, bouncing restlessly.

She couldn’t bear Qin Yunye’s gaze for long and turned her face away. Inexplicably, she felt that she wanted to say yes when she was persuaded, but she also felt that saying yes right away would make her look too obedient and lose face, so she just let out an ‘hmm’.

She thought to herself, it was up to her whether to go or not.

But then Qin Yunye suddenly bent down, his slender, powerful arms supporting her thighs as he picked her up and carried her out of the room.

Yu Huan was startled and unconsciously wrapped her arms around his neck as he carried her to the sofa.

He just carried her out?

Yu Huan was still a little dazed.

To prevent the little girl from disobeying him and running back later, Qin Yunye deliberately reassured her, “There are chicken wings you want to eat.

The rice was ready and Qin Yunye carried it into the dining room.

Yu Huan got up and went to the kitchen to help get the bowls and chopsticks.

There was a plate of crisp and refreshing stir-fried beef with pea sprouts, a plate of golden-brown fried tofu, a plate of store-bought crispy beef patties, and two bowls of milky and thick yellow croaker fish and tofu soup.

And of course there was a plate of steamed chicken wings.

They were all relatively simple and light dishes.

Yu Huan took a bite and was surprised to find that the taste was actually not bad.

It’s delicious,’ she said in surprise, ‘I didn’t think you were a good cook.

Qin Yunye didn’t say anything, just told her to eat more.

The little girl ate and praised her sincerely: ‘It’s much better than I expected.

You’re so handy, you haven’t cooked much, but you can make it taste so good. I wish I was that clever.

The steamed chicken wings are just right, tender and tasty, not overcooked at all, you should try them.

Qin Yunye raised his hand as he picked up the chicken wings, his thumb still red and swollen from the heat, but his lips curled slightly.

He plans to ask his assistant to find some books that will help him improve his cooking skills, so that he can learn more and cook even tastier and more appropriate meals for the little girl in the future.

After dinner, Yu Huan sat cross-legged on the sofa watching TV and asked Qin Yunye, “Are you going to work this afternoon?

Qin Yunye sat next to her, in a much more upright posture than hers, with his arms outstretched, straightening the hem of her slightly upturned skirt. He said in a certain tone, ‘No work.

‘Do you want to rest here this afternoon or go for a walk?’ he asked.

‘I don’t want to go out,’ Yu Huan yawned.

‘Do you want to take a nap? Go to the bedroom upstairs, it’s more comfortable,’ Qin Yunye said.

Yu Huan was a bit lazy: ‘I can sleep like this.

I’ll carry you,” Qin Yunye held out his arm.

Yu Huan froze for a moment, thinking about the full and firm muscles on this person’s body, and she was actually a little tempted.

After pretending to think about it for two seconds, she threw herself into Qin Yunye’s arms.

Still supporting her thighs with his arms, he held her like a baby, a very strength-testing way to hold her.

Yu Huan weighed a hundred catties, and Qin Yunye carried her up the stairs with ease.

Yu Huan couldn’t help but touch the muscle lines on his arm, and she remembered that this person usually wore a suit and tie, making it impossible to see the wonderful features underneath.

She had a sense of the male lead’s physique.

‘Take it easy, host, the male lead will resent you like this’. The system reminded her online: ‘He only sees you as a substitute in his heart. If you ruin his purity…”

His purity? Yu Huan didn’t quite understand the word.

Qin Yunye set her down on the bed, kissed her forehead, and was about to tell her to go to sleep, but when he saw her staring at him, he couldn’t help but kiss her lips again.

Is this purity? Yu Huan asked the system doubtfully.

The system was speechless.

Postpone the afternoon meeting until tomorrow and email me the documents,’ Qin Yunye instructed his assistant, ‘and the little girl at home isn’t feeling well, so I need to take care of her.

The assistant, who was used to Qin’s strict attitude, was surprised and a little confused. When did Qin not come to the office and still have to report to him?

Okay, okay,’ he replied stiffly and confusedly.

Oh, by the way, find some books on cooking and keep an eye out for training courses in this area,’ Qin Yunye suddenly said, ‘I need to improve my cooking skills to make my loved one happier.

Do I have to tell him that too?

The assistant was full of doubts and suddenly came to her senses, feeling as if she had been force-fed a mouthful of dog food.

The already difficult and unrewarding job had become even more difficult, and her life was over in a flash. Where did she report to him? She was clearly showing off for her friend.

After a while of bitterly criticising the world, the assistant was a little sad that even such a mean and cruel person as the boss had found a partner…
