[Comprehensive] Fire Boxer's Little Chef

"Hey, I said Wayne..."

"Have a meal."

"Hey, Wayne..."

"Have a meal."

"You're angry?"

"……I'm stuffed."

Wayne put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hand, and all the food in the bowl had been eaten. In contrast, Ace, who was sitting on his right, had a lot of food left in the bowl for the first time, and it can be said that he hardly moved much.

For a big eater like Ace, this situation is too abnormal.

There was a knock on the wooden sliding door, and then someone gently opened the wooden door. A girl in a kimono with a goldfish pattern on a dark blue background knelt respectfully and sat at the door. Wayne recognized her as the old couple who ran the Xunmeidu. granddaughter.

"May I ask whether the two guests have finished their meal, and can the servant come to clean up?"

The clear and soft voice of a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl sounded at the door, very melodious and melodious like an oriole.

Wayne turned his gaze to Ace, who hadn't eaten yet. After Ace noticed Wayne's realization, he was taken aback for a moment, and then turned his gaze to the girl kneeling at the door, and then suddenly realized.

"Hold on."

Ace picked up the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, and didn't care about the etiquette in front of the girls. He quickly finished the food in front of him with a voracious appearance. After a while, the food in front of him had been wiped out. It's clean, not even a residue is left.

He remembered that Wayne didn't like people wasting food.

"The slave family has left first, and the two guests can call the slave family at any time if they have any orders."

Holding the bowls and chopsticks in her hands, the girl bowed respectfully to the two, and then left on her own.

In the small Japanese-style room, only Wayne and Ace were left again.

"Hey, Wayne..."

Ace called to Wayne, as if he wanted to say something, but Wayne didn't give him a chance to say it. He pulled out two quilts from the closet, walked to the corner of the room, and laid them on the rattan tatami. After shaking off the bed and laying it down without even saying hello, he just lay down and closed his eyes as if he was about to fall asleep.

"..."

Faced with such Wayne, Ace didn't know how to speak for a moment, so he could only resign himself to dragging two quilts from the closet, and followed Wayne's example, shaking them out and laying them next to Wayne, and then followed Lie in.

The winter island always gets dark earlier, as early as when the two of them had dinner, the sun was already setting outside, and at this time the night completely enveloped the winter island.

The decoration of this Xunmeidu Hot Spring Hotel also imitates the ancient Japanese style, so there are no modern appliances such as electric lights installed in the room, only four small oil lamps are lit around the room. There was a faint yellow light in the dimly lit Japanese-style room.

The wooden sliding door was half-opened, and the bright moonlight penetrated into this small Japanese-style room. The extraordinarily cool white moonlight covered half of the tatami mats, and the too pale color dyed the originally warm room. There is a bit of loneliness that is not obvious.

The night in Winter Island is very cold, a bit colder than the night in the desert before.

So even though he was covered with a not-so-thin quilt, Wayne still felt a bit of biting chill, and his body couldn't help shrinking into the quilt.

Probably because the door was not closed properly.

When I opened my eyes, I could see the cold air coming in from the outside, braving the chill under the pale moonlight, so how could I sleep warmly like this.

But he didn't want to get up and close the door.

Getting up means that he has "woke up". Although he is not asleep, he must pretend to be asleep, otherwise Ace will definitely try to talk to him if he knows that he is not asleep .

Anyway, now he doesn't want to say a word to Ace.

There's no particular reason, I just don't want to talk about it.

So he could only resist the cold abruptly and continue to pretend to be asleep.

Maybe when Ace falls asleep, he will be able to get up and close the door. After all, once Ace falls asleep, he is unshakable. A small movement like getting up and closing the door will never wake him up.

"Gu..."

A strange sound suddenly sounded in this small Japanese-style room, and this sound was particularly strange in the surrounding environment that was too quiet.

"..."

He didn't wait for the sound of Ace's sleeping breathing, but he heard the sound of Ace's hungry stomach growling.

The Japanese-style meals are indeed pitifully scarce. People like him who don’t have a big appetite are only [-]% full after eating, let alone a big eater like Ace.

This weird cooing sound continued to hover in the room for a long time. Just when Wayne thought that Ace had fallen asleep from hunger, there was a sudden rustling movement from the quilt next to him.

Ace seemed to be getting up.

Wayne immediately closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.

As if afraid of waking Wayne up, Ace deliberately lightened his steps and tiptoed to the door.

Wayne thought that Ace was too hungry and wanted to go out for food, but to his surprise, Ace went and pulled the wooden door and did not go out.

After closing the door and confirming that no more air-conditioning would enter the room, Ace quietly returned to his bed.

When passing by Wayne's quilt, he also pulled up the quilt covering Wayne's body.

……

There was no more air-conditioning entering the room, and the previous coldness had long since disappeared without a trace. Wei En curled up in the quilt warmed by his own body temperature, and tightly pinched a corner of the quilt with his right hand that was exposed from the quilt.

When Ace approached, he was actually a little nervous, afraid that Ace would see that he was pretending to sleep.

But no matter how he thought about it, Ace would pull the quilt for him.

The meticulous work of pulling the quilt is not something that a nervous person like Ace would do.

In addition to being surprised, Wayne inexplicably felt a faint warmth.

Ace is not afraid of the cold, so the reason why he got up and closed the door should have taken his situation into consideration.

Ace is so careful.

……

"Gu..."

The protesting sound of the stomach continued to reach Wayne's ears from the bed next to him, and the sound seemed to be getting louder than before.

Ace also seemed to be unable to fall asleep because he was too hungry, and kept tossing and turning in the bed next to him, as if he could fall asleep by doing so.

I can't sleep now...

Wayne opened his eyes, and there was a clearness between them, without any sign of sleepiness.

Without thinking about it, he got up from the bed, lifted the warm quilt, and walked barefoot to the door amidst Ace's dumbfounded expression.

"V... Wayne?"

Ace was taken aback, as if he didn't expect Wayne to get up suddenly, probably he wasn't the one who woke Wayne up.

"where are you going?"

Seeing Wayne open the door, Ace reacted, sat up from the bed, and asked.

"Get you something to eat."

Wayne turned his head and glanced at Ace, and after leaving these words, he walked straight towards the door.

The hot spring soup that they soaked in before was not far from where their room was located. Wayne found a plastic bucket and headed towards the location of the hot spring soup.

As the night approached, the old couple who needed more sleep had already gone to bed, and they were in Xunmeidu, and only Wei En was walking outside at this time.

Taking off the dark blue bathrobe he was wearing and putting it aside, Wayne jumped into the hot spring pool without hesitation, carrying a plastic bucket.

The slightly hot hot spring water soaked the whole body, bringing a great sense of comfort to the body that had been surrounded by air-conditioning for a period of time, warm and comfortable.

But this moment is not the time to enjoy it. He entered the hot spring pool not for taking a bath, but for other purposes.

As I said before, the hot spring pool of this hot spring hotel was not made too deep for safety reasons, so it didn't take long for Wayne to sneak into the bottom of the hot spring pool, and naturally, he found what he was looking for ...

And Ace, who followed Wayne's trail to the hot spring soup, just arrived at this place, and saw a black head suddenly appearing from the translucent pool filled with white hot air, which shocked him a lot .

But after taking a closer look, Ace realized that the black head was actually Wayne's.Wayne, who had just dived from the bottom of the hot spring pool, had black hair that was wet at the moment, sticking to his forehead and sides of his cheeks, and seemed to be dripping water continuously.Under the too pale moonlight of Dongdao, the originally cold face looked even whiter and colder.

There is a strange beauty...

Ace couldn't help but feel a little sluggish...

Wayne also noticed the existence of Ace, and glanced at Ace in a daze. Wayne raised his right hand soaked in the hot spring, and that white but slender right hand was holding a blue plastic barrel.

"Take it."

Before Ace could react, a blue plastic bucket suddenly appeared in front of him.

"what is this?"

Ace took the plastic bucket that Wayne handed him from the water, and looked into it curiously. What puzzled him was that there were a lot of gray-white stones in it.

"Volcano Egg."

Wayne walked out of the hot spring pool, took the white towel that was set aside, wiped off all the drops of water on his body, and put on a dark blue bathrobe under Ace's dazed gaze.

"This kind of egg is very similar to volcanic stone in appearance. People often mistake it for volcanic stone laid on the bottom of the hot spring pool. Over time, this kind of bird egg will be cooked by the hot spring water in the hot spring pool, forming a natural gourmet food."

Wayne explained to Wayne while wiping the water droplets on his hair.

He also accidentally discovered it when he was at the bottom of the hot spring water. These volcanic bird eggs should have been in this hot spring pool for a long time. It's not bad to take them up and let them stay at the bottom of the hot spring pool as stones at the bottom of the hot spring pool.

"Well, this is delicious, much better than ordinary chicken eggs."

Before Wayne finished speaking, Ace couldn't wait to start eating. It didn't take long for a lot of eggshells to pile up in front of him.

"Well, although I'm not full, I'm not that hungry at all, Wayne, thanks."

Ace seemed to have more to say, but he didn't say much. In order not to cause unnecessary trouble to the owner of the hotel, he put all the eggshells he had eaten into plastic buckets.

Then his gaze turned to Wayne who had dried his hair and was about to leave.

"Need not……"

As if remembering something, Wayne hesitated for a while before speaking out slowly.

"Don't make those jokes casually in the future."

Thinking of what happened at the bottom of the hot spring pool before, Wayne couldn't help but frown slightly. Instead of holding back in his heart and pretending to ignore Ace, he thought it would be better to tell him directly.

"..."

After Ace heard Wayne's words, he was silent for a while. Just when Wayne thought Ace was reflecting, Ace suddenly raised his head, using a kind of expression that he had never seen on Ace. Looking at him.

"You thought it was a joke."

Ace's tone suddenly became very calm, just like the sea before dawn, so calm that it made people feel dull.

Wayne suddenly had an irresistible urge to leave, and when this idea was formed in his mind, his body followed suit, and before Ace finished speaking, he took steps to leave here.

But in the next second, he found that he couldn't move.

His right hand was held tightly by Ace, holding his right hand with astonishing strength, as if he would never let him break free, Wayne felt that his right hand was a little painful from Ace's pinch .

He turned his head and looked at Ace. Ace's eyes were serious like never before, with an extremely hot temperature, just like Ace's own temperature, with a very strong sense of aggression, even Even under such a cold moonlit night, Wei En couldn't help but sweat a few beads on his forehead.

I don't know if it's hot or urgent.

"open……"

"I'm not joking……"

"I said let go..."

Wayne anxiously tried his best to shake off the hand that was holding his right hand, but it was useless in the end. Naturally, it was inevitable to hear the words that Ace blurted out.

In this quiet and deep night, it is extraordinarily clear.

"Wayne, I like you."
