As if he was interested and liked listening to whatever s.h.i.+ Xiaoya had to say.

“Okay.” Han Zhuoling pinched the crayfish with two fingers, looking like an attentive student.

“Like this. First you remove the head. You see the three segments at the tail? Remove the one in the middle.” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s fingers moved as she spoke, showing Han Zhuoling after she took off the sh.e.l.l. “See, the vein can be removed at the same time.”

Han Zhuoling followed her directions, and the black vein was indeed removed along with the tail.

“Then peel the sh.e.l.l on top, which reveals a portion of the meat,” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya instructed as she held the crayfish between her fingers. “Pinch the remaining two sh.e.l.l segments near the tail like this, and voila! A whole crayfish ready to eat.”

The three steps were far easier than if one slowly sh.e.l.led it.

The crayfish had a hard sh.e.l.l, and if he did as per usual, it would have been a long process.

s.h.i.+ Xiaoya grabbed the crayfish by the tail and dipped it in the crayfish soup, grinning. “You must dip it in the soup so that it’ll be delicious.”

Han Zhuoling repeated her actions but did not send it into his mouth. Instead, he placed it on s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s plate.

s.h.i.+ Xiaoya froze while holding on to her newly-sh.e.l.led crayfish, not knowing what to do next.

Since Han Zhuoling gave her his first sh.e.l.led crayfish, should she return the courtesy?

Han Zhuoling was so caring; she was embarra.s.sed to eat her own sh.e.l.led crayfish.

Hesitating, she put her crayfish on Han Zhuoling’s plate.

Han Zhuoling looked at her in surprise, and she smiled in return. “You gave me your sh.e.l.led crayfish, so I’m giving you mine.”

She raised her gloved hands. “The gloves are brand new, and I gave you the first sh.e.l.led one, so it’s clean.”

Han Zhuoling’s gaze wavered, thinking that he wouldn’t mind even if she sh.e.l.led one for him after eating.

“I wouldn’t have minded,” Han Zhuoling answered as he popped the crayfish into his mouth.

Spicy, with a tinge of numbness and sweetness. Not bad.

As for texture, it was just that. It could never beat the sweetness and chewiness of Australian lobsters no matter how good it was.

Just as s.h.i.+ Xiaoya said, this was so he could taste the thick and savory soup.

“Don’t mind me,” Han Zhuoling said as his fingers moved without pausing, sh.e.l.ling a few crayfish for her.

The more he peeled, the faster he got, and s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s plate was filled soon after.

s.h.i.+ Xiaoya hurriedly said, “Stop sh.e.l.ling them for me, you eat them too!”

Seeing that he had peeled plenty for her already, he then started eating.

He thought of the time before, when he didn’t know she wished to eat crayfish on the day she helped Jiang Yuhan makeup. He would’ve willingly helped her sh.e.l.l them if he knew.

Just then, Han Zhuoling blurted out, “If you fear any lingering smell on your hands before you start work next time, I’ll sh.e.l.l them for you.”

s.h.i.+ Xiaoya shook. How could Han Zhuoling just say such things out of nowhere? It’s so easy to misunderstand!

If it wasn’t for his serious face when he spoke, without a hint of underlying meanings, she would’ve misconstrued his meanings.

Even so, s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s heart skipped a beat.

She gave an awkward laugh. “I’m working outside, and Young Master Ling, you’re busy as well. Where can we find the chance again?”
