You're dumping me, huh? Fine, then I'll just pick up the school beauty and make her my wif

The boiled prawns were the third dish served.

After eating a shrimp dipped in soy sauce and wasabi, Su Qinghe leaned back in her chair and let out a satisfied and happy sigh.

"Yu Ning... I think it's a real waste of your talent that you're not a chef."

While Su Qinghe's words were somewhat exaggerated, Bai Yuning's culinary skills were indeed quite impressive.

She had been living alone for so many years, taking care of everything herself, including food, clothing, shelter, and transportation. Her cooking skills had long been honed to perfection.

Upon hearing this, Bai Yuning calmly picked up a piece of fish and put it in her bowl, then replied, "That won't do. If I become a chef, the culinary world will just have an insignificant person, but the medical world will lose its Jerusalem."

That's absolutely true.

Bai Yuning's status in the medical field is undeniable; she has achieved great success at a young age.

Although she usually appears gentle and smiling, she doesn't seem to have any sense of propriety when bickering with Jiang Che.

But when it comes to their professional field, see if Bai Yuning will act all playful and joking with you.

She can hold a kitchen knife steadily, and she can hold a scalpel even more steadily.

Su Qinghe silently marveled to herself: Is this the true value of a mature older sister?

She can chat, cook, pick seafood, and even treat illnesses and save lives.

No, no, I need to learn more from Sister Yu Ning in the future.

What if one day I could become such a capable person?

But she quickly looked down at the cleanly peeled shrimp meat in front of her.

Ok……

Forget it.

Being a good-for-nothing fed by A-Che seems pretty happy.

King crab was the grand finale.

Jiang Che used special crab claws to crack open the shell, picked out the crab meat one by one, and then neatly arranged it on the plate in front of Su Qinghe.

Su Qinghe ate crab meat and rice in one bite, completely oblivious to the world around her.

Her lips were smeared with crab roe and sauce, glistening with oil, completely obscuring the image of the aloof school beauty she presented to outsiders.

As Jiang Che peeled the crab legs for her, he would occasionally pull out a tissue and reach out to wipe her mouth.

Not two seconds after wiping, Su Qinghe took another bite of a crab leg, and her mouth got dirty again.

Jiang Che had no choice but to wipe it again.

Then Su Qinghe took another bite.

Then wipe it again.

This process was repeated over and over.

Bai Yuning, sitting opposite, kept her head down and ate her rice the whole time, refusing to look up at the two people opposite her.

She's learned her lesson; watching them show off their affection only annoys her, so she'd rather just eat a proper meal.

At least seafood won't be forced into her mouth by dog ​​food.

The meal took about forty minutes from start to finish, and most of the plates on the table were empty.

Su Qinghe slumped back in her chair after finishing her meal, her hands folded over her stomach.

Her belly was slightly bulging and round, quite similar to the bellies of the grouper I had just seen at the market.

"I declare that Xiamen is the best city in the world!"

She spoke with great solemnity, as if she were delivering an important speech at an international conference.

Jiang Che was wiping his hands with a tissue when he heard this, and casually replied, "Just the other day you said Atlanta was the best city in the world."

Su Qinghe was stunned for a moment.

Then she blinked and said very confidently, "Then let's tie for first place!"

Jiang Che: "..."

Jiang Che was left speechless, both amused and exasperated by her logic.

Su Qinghe didn't think there was anything wrong with what she said at all. Instead, she added confidently, "What's wrong with that? I can just tie for first place in every city I go to. There's no rule that there can only be one first place."

Bai Yuning smiled and asked her, "What about Lincheng?"

This question stumped Su Qinghe. After thinking carefully for a moment, she shook her head and replied, "Lincheng cannot be ranked with these cities."

Why?

"Because Lincheng has A-Che, its status is special and it cannot be ranked in the conventional way."

"Well... if we have to rank them, then Lincheng should be number one, and all the other cities should be number two," Su Qinghe said seriously.

After hearing this, Bai Yuning was so jealous that she gritted her teeth.

She lowered her head, took a sip of soup, and silently prepared herself mentally.

Bai Yuning, you are a mature adult.

You can't do something childish like putting a king crab shell on someone's head just because two young couples are being all lovey-dovey in front of you.

After enjoying this sumptuous seafood feast at the guesthouse, the pace of our trip to Xiamen slowed down considerably.

They went to the island ring road by the sea and watched the waves crashing against the rocks, like shattered glass candy.

They then visited a famous local museum. Su Qinghe stared at a radio in a glass case for a long time before finally whispering to Jiang Che, "Ah Che, did people in the past write letters when they were in love?"

Jiang Che thought for a moment and replied in a low voice, "If you want to write it, I can write it for you."

Su Qinghe remained silent, only offering a wicked smile.

That very night, Jiang Che added a new task to his notebook.

At least one love letter per week.

No kissing allowed without writing it down.

When Jiang Che watched her write down this rule in a serious manner, he had only one thought in his mind.

It’s over.

He dug a hole for himself.

They also went to the night market.

Su Qinghe held a grilled squid in her hand and a peanut dumpling in her mouth, but her eyes were still fixed on the fried five-spice rolls not far away.

Seeing her looking so hungry she was practically drooling, Jiang Che couldn't help but ask, "Is there a small black hole inside your stomach?"

Su Qinghe blinked confidently: "When you're out having fun, your appetite can be temporarily increased."

Bai Yuning listened from the side and couldn't help but laugh.

She felt that the biggest gain from this trip was not how many sights she saw or how much food she ate.

Instead, she witnessed firsthand how a cold and aloof school beauty gradually turned into a soft and pliable dumpling in front of Jiang Che.

In addition, every time they went to a new place these past few days, Su Qinghe would take out her notebook and jot down a few notes.

If you can't draw it well, take a picture with an instant camera and stick it on. If you can't stick it on, fold a colored sticky note and stick it next to it.

After a few days, her notebook was bulging with colorful scraps of paper sticking out from the sides, making it look like a coupon booklet that she couldn't bear to throw away even though she had finished using it.

But good times never slow down and wait for anyone.

The days you try to hold onto the most seem to fly by the fastest.

The last day in Xiamen arrived before we knew it.

In the morning, the three of them packed their luggage at the guesthouse in preparation for their return trip.

Su Qinghe carefully packed the souvenirs she had collected over the past few days into her suitcase, one by one, from the bed.

Seashell wind chimes, a bag for woven bracelets, several hand-painted postcards, a small wooden dolphin, two packets of coconut candy, a bag of various flavors of chili sauce, and a string of dried starfish that I bought on a whim at the market.

All these odds and ends together filled an entire suitcase.
