"I'm cold, hubby."

Mo Jiangye raised his gaze and looked at her shaggy head. "Where have you been?"

Ye Erruo secretly cast a fierce glare at Xu Xu.

Xu Xu pretended he hadn't seen anything as he lowered his head and tore the barbecued meat up.

"I went out with Shu Xin for a while." She strongly longed to be in his embrace. By sitting in his embrace, she wouldn't feel cold any longer.

"Smells delicious. Is it done being barbecued? Can I eat it?" She reached out and grabbed the roasted leg to have a sniff.

Xu Xu and the rest seemed like they were fiddling with the barbecued meat, but they were examining Mo Jiangye's reaction out of the corners of their eyes.

Ye Erruo impatiently took a bite of the delicious meat.

"Hot." She furrowed her brows as her eyes welled up in tears. She then turned around and hugged Mo Jiangye.

When she turned around, Mo Jiangye…

Xu Xu and the rest widened their eyes in shock speechlessly.

After feeding the piece of meat into his mouth and turning around calmly, she blew at the meat in her hand and tried it out once again by eating a smaller bite.

"Why are you all looking at me like that?" she asked, despite knowing the answer.

She smiled gently and lowered her head to look at the meat in her hands. "Although it is very delicious, it lacks salt."

Suddenly, the man's arm hugged her from behind while he held a seasoning bottle in his other hand. He sprinkled seasoning on her meat and said softly, "This is cumin and salt."

A crafty glint flashed across Ye Erruo's eyes. Just like that, she had smoothly avoided a storm! Now, there wasn't a thing that couldn't be solved by a kiss, a hug, or some coquettish behavior. If one of them wasn't enough, then she would use two. If two were not enough, then she would use three. He would always compromise in the end…

Xu Xu blinked. Sister-in-law had not even apologized, yet boss had forgiven her just like that? How could he?

Ye Erruo smiled and delivered the piece of barbecued meat in her hand to the mouth of the man behind her. She purposely passed the side she had not eaten to him. In the end, Mo Jiangye lowered his head and chose to only eat the side she had bitten.

Xu Xu was speechless.

"Sister-in-law, earlier… You…" Before Xu Xu could finish his words, Zheng Yi and Wang Yiyang gave him a harsh kick.

"I said, you all…"

"Sister-in-law! It's delicious, isn't it? I barbecued this myself!" Zheng Yi fawned over her and handed the wing to her.

"Delicious!" She grinned. She glanced at Xu Xu and let out a soft snort before rolling her eyes.

In a moment, Zheng Yi and Wang Yiyang had squeezed Xu Xu to the side.

"Try this, sister-in-law. Brush this on top and it will taste even better."

"Chili oil!" Ye Erruo's eyes shone.

She couldn't wait to have a firm bite after she smeared chili oil on top of the meat. When she had first come here, every meal had been bland. It was rare to even see any kind of chili in the dishes. She was someone who loved spicy food, so she had been enduring this for a long time.

Upon seeing her eating without the slightest scruple, Mo Jiangye furrowed his eyebrows. "Did you not get to eat a lot here?"

"There hasn't been any chili."

Mo Jiangye rubbed off the chili oil at the corner of her lips with his thumb as he curled the corners of his lips into a loving smile.

"Try it. It tastes really good." She turned her head and passed the meat in her hand to him.

"Sister-in-law, he doesn't eat spicy food." Zheng Yi smiled gently.

"Yeah, he…" Before Wang Yiyang could finish his words, they were fed another mushy scene.

Mo Jiangye did not only eat up all the meat she fed him, but he also licked the chili oil on her fingers clean.

Ye Erruo's face turned embarrassingly red as she hurriedly retracted her hand. However, he continued to hold onto her wrist tightly.

"W-What are you doing?"
