Chapter 150 Shh, are you hungry?
Chapter 150 Shh, are you hungry?
Because of his bad mood, Qi Min had no appetite and didn't feel hungry, so he didn't exchange any food from his backpack.
Now that he was back in a place where he felt relaxed, the hunger in his stomach suddenly began to make its presence known.
It was originally just a minor ailment, but Qi Min missed Ling Yi so much that he just wanted to hold him and rest for a while, so he deliberately ignored it.
But as things went on and time passed, the hunger gradually turned from mild to burning.
Qi Min had no choice but to come up first, eat something to appease him, and then wash the dishes.
Qi Min suddenly thought of Ling Yi, who looked exhausted even when he was asleep, and didn't seem to have eaten properly.
After thinking for a moment, Qi Min washed the rice again, added water, and simmered it slowly over a fire, occasionally adding other ingredients before cooking.
After a while, Qi Min carried the insulated food back to the underground room, looking at the few hours left until dawn.
Qi Min put the lunchbox down, dimmed the light, and then lay down next to Ling Yi.
After adjusting the eye mask on his eyes, she reached out and pulled him into her arms, holding him tightly like Winnie the Pooh had hugged the honey before, and closed her eyes to rest.
In the early morning, a ray of sunlight shone into the house from outside. The morning breeze, carrying a hint of coolness and the fragrance of flowers and grass, wandered through the quiet house, trying to awaken its sleeping owner.
But after wandering around for a long time, it still couldn't find the owner of the house, so it had no choice but to give up and leave the seemingly deserted dwelling.
Although the morning breeze failed to wake Ling Yi, her biological clock still dutifully fulfilled its duty.
"Well……"
Ling Yi felt a warm breath gently brushing against his neck.
My mind was still a bit sluggish after waking up, but all I saw when I opened my eyes was darkness.
Ling Yi blinked, only then realizing somewhat belatedly that the darkness was due to an eye patch over his eyes.
But he remembered that he hadn't brought it with him before going to bed last night.
Ling Yi was puzzled and tried to reach out to take it off, but suddenly found that his hands were bound tightly without him noticing.
Ling Yi's eyes, hidden behind the blindfold, suddenly widened. He tried to get up but found that even his ankles were bound.
"woke up?"
A warm body approached from behind, embracing Ling Yi and gently nuzzling him a few times.
Hearing the familiar voice and the familiar scent, Ling Yi couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"A powerful ruler?"
"Yes, it's me. Are you surprised?"
Qi Min looked at the obvious surprise on Ling Yi's face, which was covered by his eyes, and spoke calmly, but felt a little depressed in his heart.
"No, I... I'm very surprised, but why did the lord tie me up?"
Did I do something wrong? Where has the lord been these past few days? I've been everywhere..."
"Shh... Don't ask so many questions yet, are you hungry?"
Before Ling Yi could finish speaking, Qi Min gently interrupted him. Hearing his question, Ling Yi was puzzled and hesitated before speaking.
"I...I'm fine, Your Majesty, could you please let me go?"
As soon as Ling Yi finished speaking, Qi Min simply chuckled and spoke in a gentle tone.
"Not yet. I heard your stomach growling. I cooked some porridge, and it's warm now."
I'll feed you, and then I'll untie you after you've finished eating, okay?
Qi Min spoke as if asking a question, then waited quietly for Ling Yi's reply without making any move, as if he wouldn't do anything without Ling Yi's permission.
Ling Yi felt the warm breath coming from Qi Min, and the fact that Qi Min didn't move, as if waiting for his answer, made him feel puzzled and confused.
Qi Min gave him a very strange feeling at this moment, as if he had been replaced by a different male insect. Although he spoke to him in the same gentle manner and the aura he exuded was still familiar.
But Ling Yi felt that something was wrong. He wanted to ask Qi Min where he had been during the two days he was missing, and he wanted Qi Min to untie him so that he could watch over him.
But Qi Min clearly didn't want him to ask, and refused to untie his clothes, his condition was obviously different from before.
Ling Yi thought for a moment, feeling the restraints on her hands and feet and the obstruction of light from her eyes, and decided to go along with Qi Min for now, and continue to ask questions after he untied her.
“Alright, then wait until I finish eating, and then the master will untie me…”
"Good girl, let me help you sit up first. After you finish eating, I'll definitely untie you..."
Qi Min chuckled softly, and seeing Ling Yi's undisguised expression, he easily guessed that he was only pretending to comply.
The rope will definitely be untied, but how and what to untie is something to be dealt with after Ling Yi finishes his rice porridge.
Qi Min helped the immobile Ling Yi sit up, leaning against the headboard, and asked him to wait a moment before getting up and leaving.
Ling Yi felt Qi Min gently and carefully help him sit up, leaning against the headboard with two pillows, his mind racing, trying to figure out why Qi Min had suddenly acted this way.
And where he went these past two days, how he got back, and what he went through after he went missing...
Just as Ling Yi was making wild guesses, Qi Min brought a bowl of rice porridge at the perfect temperature and sat down next to Ling Yi.
"Come on, open your mouth and taste how it tastes. I've been simmering it for a long time, and it's already very soft and chewy."
Qi Min scooped up some fragrant rice porridge with a spoon and brought it to Ling Yi's lips. After watching him eat it, he immediately scooped up another spoonful, as if Ling Yi didn't need to answer his question.
Ling Yi wanted to speak, but the rice porridge placed in front of his mouth did not give him a chance to open his mouth.
After feeding Ling Yi a bowl of sweet and soft rice porridge, Qi Min left satisfied with the bowl.
Ling Yi was chewing the food in his mouth, and before he could swallow it, he sensed Qi Min leaving.
"Here, drink some more water and rinse your mouth."
Ling Yi had just swallowed when Qi Min, who had quickly returned, pressed a water glass against her lips.
Just as he was about to speak, the cup tilted, and warm water instantly entered his mouth. Ling Yi had no choice but to swallow it.
Qi Min fed him half a cup, then stopped, placed the cup a little further away, and took a towel to wipe Ling Yi's wet lips.
"My lord, may you release me now? I have some questions for you."
Ling Yi waited until he finished wiping before speaking.
"sure……"
Qi Min moved closer to Ling Yi, placed his hand on the back of his head, and wrapped his other arm around his waist. As Ling Yi tilted his head in confusion, Qi Min suddenly pulled him down forcefully.
"Hmm! A powerful ruler?"
Ling Yi was dragged down as if by him, and asked in surprise, not understanding what Qi Min's sudden action meant.
