"How could that be..." Shen Mochen was stunned for a moment, instinctively denying it, but then he thought of Cai Yuncui's character and glanced at the pot beside him, chuckling, "Are you talking about the soup?"
"Weren't you drawn here by the scent of the mung bean and lotus seed soup I was cooking?" Cai Yuncui thought Shen Mochen was playing dumb, gently patted his arm, and laughed, "It's not ready yet, drink it later. And you just finished dinner, are you hungry again now?"
Shen Mochen laughed somewhat coquettishly, "Isn't it just because the soup you cooked is too tempting, Sister Cai? I couldn't help it!"
"Are there any more lotus seeds left to peel, do you want some?"
"Yes, and Sister Cai, you should head back early too, I see this mung bean and lotus seed won't be ready anytime soon, the kitchen is too hot."
