"Really?" Rong Shu looked at the man without blinking.
The man nodded, "Really, if you don't believe me, leave it to me?"
Rong Shu didn't say anything, just handed over the carving knife.
After the man took it, he took two steps forward, stood where she had just stood, picked up the mud-like pumpkin she had carved, and looked at it carefully, as if he was considering where to start improving first.
Rong Shu didn't know the man's plan. She watched the man motionless with the carving knife and her carved pumpkin. She thought that the man finally realized that things were not as simple and easy as he said at the beginning. She was about to laugh at the man who was beaten for talking nonsense.
His face turned pale and he saw the man suddenly move.
The man's slender fingers were holding a carving knife, and he was carving on the pumpkin at a very fast speed. He didn't look like a novice at all, but a master craftsman with many years of carving experience.
Rong Shu's red lips slightly opened in surprise, "You are so skilled. When did you learn how to carve? Could it be that when you were learning cooking, you also learned food carving?"
After all, food carving is also a part of cooking.
However, there are very few people who can learn it. Basically, people who have dreams of becoming hotel chefs or chefs in some high-end restaurants will learn it.
Only in such positions can food tunes be useful.
The chefs in ordinary small restaurants basically know how to cook home-cooked dishes, and there are no complicated cooking techniques in home-cooked dishes.
Although Fu Jingting is learning to cook recently, he is still learning home-cooked dishes from various major cuisines, rather than those exquisite and beautiful dishes.
Therefore, she couldn't help but be surprised that he could eat carvings.
"I haven't learned." Unexpectedly, Fu Jingting's answer was that he had never learned.
Rong Shu walked up to him in surprise and looked at the movements in his hands, her expression even more surprised, "You haven't learned it before? Then how did you do it? And you look so skilled!"
Fu Jingting was carving the thing in his hand seriously, without looking up, he just chuckled and replied, "I studied jade carving for a while in high school."
"jade carving?"
"Yeah." Fu Jingting raised his chin slightly, "At that time, it was my grandmother's birthday and I wanted to give her a special gift, but I didn't know what to give. Later, Zhang Cheng suggested that I give a Guanyin statue."
"Oh, I see." Rong Shu clapped her hands, "Grandma believes in Buddhism, so it is really appropriate to give her a statue of Guanyin."
Fu Jingting hummed, "Yes, but grandma has many Guanyin statues, and those Guanyin statues are all made by famous sculptors. If I give another Guanyin statue carved by those famous sculptors, to grandma, it will be just one more statue that is exactly the same.
Yes, it doesn’t feel too strange.”
"So, just to make your grandmother's eyes light up when she sees the Guanyin statue, you went to learn jade carving?" Rong Shu touched her chin and guessed.
Fu Jingting curled his lips, "Absolutely. In addition, because of my heart condition at that time, I couldn't do many things. I felt like a useless person. This gap made me even have symptoms of mania, anger, and world-weariness.
Learning jade carving is not only a gift for my grandmother, but also a way to cultivate myself. Jade carving requires a lot of patience and care. If you have a bad attitude, you won't be able to learn it at all."
"In other words, if you had not learned jade carving, your heart would bear a greater burden due to your irritability, so much so that your heart might not even be able to support a heart change?" Rong Shu bit her lip and asked.
Fu Jingting nodded, "That's right."
Rong Shu's heart suddenly contracted, then she took a step back and came behind him, hugged him from behind, and rested her head on his strong back.
Fu Jingting was startled, and the carving on his hand stopped. He was obviously shocked by the woman's sudden move.
He put down the carving knife in his hand and turned slightly to look at the woman behind him.
When a woman hugs him, his head cannot rotate in a large arc, so he cannot see the woman's overall appearance, only part of her body and profile, but even so, his eyes are still gentle and doting.
"What's wrong? Why are you so proactive today?"
"I'm not taking the initiative." Rong Shu raised her head and rolled her eyes at the man's side face, then lowered her head and pressed her forehead against the man's vest. She opened her red lips lightly and spoke in a muffled voice with a bit of joy.
"I'm just glad. Fortunately, Assistant Zhang suggested you give Guanyin as a gift, otherwise you wouldn't have thought about learning jade carving. If you don't learn jade carving, then you won't be able to calm down your heart and calm down...
"
She couldn't speak anymore, her voice was trembling, choked, and scared.
She was afraid that he didn't learn jade carving, didn't cultivate his character, and his heart couldn't support it and he died that year.
Realizing that the woman was in a bad mood at the moment, Fu Jingting put down the pumpkin in his hand, turned around, hugged the woman tightly, rubbed his chin on the top of her head, and comforted her softly, "Okay, am I okay?
, Don’t be afraid, that’s all in the past, am I not doing well now?”
As he spoke, he ruffled the woman's hair.
The slightly stronger force also let her know that he was really fine at the moment, standing in front of her, that he was not an illusion, and told her to stop thinking about it and stop being afraid.
Rong Shu raised her head, her eyes were a little red, "I know you are fine now, but what happened back then was still scary and dangerous. It was such a critical moment. If you hadn't accepted Assistant Zhang's advice, if you hadn't accepted Assistant Zhang's advice,
Suggestion, you now... you are no longer there!"
Fu Jingting's eyes were full of smiles, "But it turns out that Zhang Cheng made the suggestion and I accepted it, right?"
"What if you didn't have it then?"
"Nothing unexpected." Fu Jingting replied seriously.
Rong Shu pursed her lips, "How do you say that?"
"Don't forget, you and I were already pen pals at that time." Fu Jingting pinched her face gently, "I remember that at that time, we had been pen pals for two years, although I hadn't fallen in love yet.
You, but I have already become interested in you. I have always known that I need to calm down and adjust my mentality and cannot be irritable anymore. So when Zhang Cheng made the suggestion, I immediately thought of learning jade carving and adjusting my mentality.
mentality, only in this way can I live longer, have more time to persist in finding a suitable heart, and see you in the future."
"So, in order to see me, you won't refuse Assistant Zhang's proposal, right?" Rong Shu sniffed and looked at the man.
The man lowered his head, placed an extremely gentle kiss on her moist eyes, and replied with a gloomy and melodious voice, "Of course, so can you feel at ease now?"
Rong Shu snorted, put her forehead on his chest, and said nothing, which was regarded as acquiescence.
Fu Jingting chuckled, put one hand around her waist, put the other on the back of her head, rubbed her gently, and coaxed her like a child.
Rong Shu leaned in his arms and slightly raised the corners of her mouth, enjoying him coaxing her like this.
What woman doesn't want to live like a child?
What woman doesn't like her lover to pamper her like a child?
Anyway, she likes it.
However, Rong Shu knew what time it was now and could not continue to be affectionate with Fu Jingting.
So after Fu Jingting held her in his arms for about two minutes, she took the initiative to come out of Fu Jingting's arms and looked at the slightly startled man with a smile on her face.
The man seemed to still be wondering, why didn't she let him hug her?
