BXBX NOVEL Chapter 100 - 100 Is That A Compliment?
Yao Zizhou stared at Ming Liuyi in confusion. Ming Liuyi stretched out her hand and turned Yao Zizhou’s head and body around so that she could see the back of his head. Ming Liuyi continued to speak with a serious expression.
“The back of your head is incredibly beautiful.”
Yao Zizhou was speechless, he did not know what to say. ‘This is called praising? Why did it sound like something an idiot would say? Maybe she’s just nervous, so her words aren’t very good.’
Ming Liuyi looked at Yao Zizhou’s palm again, and suddenly had an idea. She continued to speak, “Your fingers are also so beautiful. The joints are distinct, pale, and slender. Is it legal to have such perfect hands?”
The more Yao Zizhou listened, the more confused he became. ‘Is this really a compliment? Why does it make me feel a little annoyed? Moreover, shouldn’t she be praising someone for having good facial features and a good figure? What does that have to do with my hands? If she really praises someone like this in the future, she would probably get beaten up.’
Without waiting for Ming Liuyi to continue, Yao Zizhou immediately interrupted her and said casually, “You’re too weird when you praise people. Is this really a compliment? It makes me feel like hitting someone.”
Ming Liuyi was also confused by Yao Zizhou’s words. ‘How can this be? I read about this recently. Those netizens said that whenever a girlfriend was angry, as long as they said this, their girlfriend would definitely be happy. What was wrong with that?’
Ming Liuyi asked in confusion, “I can’t praise this? But that’s what the Internet said to do.”
Yao Zizhou felt exasperated. If what the Internet said really worked, then there would be no quarreling couples in the world, and no girlfriend that could not be coaxed. Yao Zizhou rubbed his temple, it seemed like he had to teach Ming Liuyi how to give compliments so that she would not annoy other people in the future.
Yao Zizhou said helplessly to her, “When you praise someone, you have a little bit of sincerity, just like...”
Before Yao Zizhou could finish, Ming Liuyi suddenly sat up and gently touched his eyes. Yao Zizhou immediately felt uncomfortable and opened his eyes slightly without his knowing. Ming Liuyi stared into his eyes and was instantly mesmerized. ‘As expected of the main character, his eyes are so beautiful!’
Ming Liuyi inadvertently whispered, “The people who say that the stars are beautiful must have never seen your eyes.”
Hearing this, Yao Zizhou’s eyes unwittingly blinked a few times. All of a sudden, he felt a faint light shining through the thick fog in his vision. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief and soon, everything turned dark again. He laughed at himself. ‘It really is just an illusion, how can my eyes recover so quickly?’
Ming Liuyi looked at Yao Zizhou’s state and asked in bewilderment, “Did I say something wrong? Regardless, you can’t treat your eyes like that. I’m not kidding, I really think your eyes are beautiful, I really do.”
Yao Zizhou calmed himself down. It was just an illusion, he did not know if his eyes could actually get better, but his wife had said before that everything would be fine, not just his eyes, but his legs as well. When that time came, he would be able to take better care of his wife.
After Yao Zizhou’s mood had stabilized, he said, “Are there any words that can be used to describe other people’s inner qualities?”
Ming Liuyi continued to speak, but Yao Zizhou did not hear her. He was still reminiscing the feeling of seeing the light just now. That long-lost sense of familiarity made Yao Zizhou reminisce endlessly.
Ming Liuyi talked for a long time, but Yao Zizhou did not say a word. She thought Yao Zizhou was tired, so Ming Liuyi stopped talking and slowly fell asleep.
After some time, Ming Liuyi woke up feeling very hungry. She turned around and found that Yao Zizhou was no longer in bed. He had probably gone to the study to work. Ming Liuyi felt much better after getting out of bed. She washed up and came down to find something to eat. Xiao Fan saw Ming Liuyi and quickly brought out the congee that had been kept warm in the kitchen. Ming Liuyi looked at the rice congee Xiao Fan had brought out and pouted.
“To begin with, my sense of taste has weakened, yet I still have to eat plain congee? I really don’t want to eat this.”
Xiao Fan had expected this. Sometimes, the madam was like a child. As long as she was coaxed like a child, she would be happy.
Xiao Fan put down the congee and entered the kitchen. She took out a small plate of pickled vegetables as if she was presenting a treasure.
She looked around before approaching Ming Liuyi, and whispered, “The master said that you had not recovered yet and should eat only light meals, so he asked the kitchen to prepare plain congee. I knew that you might not want to eat it, so I secretly prepared some pickled vegetables for you.”
