Chapter 650

When Jasper was ready to use them, he found that the vegetables inthe basin had been ruined by Evie's hands.

He couldn't help but chuckle, "You wash vegetables with so muchforce.”

Evie blushed and rubbed her hands apologetically.“It's my first timewashing vegetables. I can't control my strength."

"Coincidentally, it's also my first time cooking for a girl." Jasper said ashe threw the washed vegetables into the pot.

Listening to Jasper's words, Evie inexplicably felt a little spoiled andsweet.

Maybe she was thinking too much.

Although the vegetable leaves were a bit mushy from being washed toohard, it didn't affect the taste of Jasper's cooked noodles at all.

In no time at all, a steaming bowl of celery pork noodles was served onthe table.

Evie exclaimed and picked up her fork to eat but then remembered thatJasper hadn't come over yet so she quickly put down her fork again.When Jasper brought over another bowl of noodles, he saw Evie sittingupright waiting for him.

He couldn't help but smile when he saw this. “There is no one elsehere; you don't have to wait for me."

Upon hearing this, Evie quickly picked up her fork. "I'll start eating!"Her eating habits weren't elegant but they were natural andunpretentious.

Jasper felt this bowl of noodles tasted especially good today when hethought Evie worked together with him on it!

Evie was really hungry so she wasn't thinking about anything elseexcept eating.

“Thank you for giving me that little clay figurine; I really like it." This wasactually his first time receiving a gift from a girl.

He wanted to say that he would return something back as well but aftersome thought, he decided not to bring it up until he was ready.

“I'm particularly good at making clay figurines; I can make one in justminutes," said Evie nonchalantly. "So there's no need to thank me; It'seffortless.”

“I know how to do many things," replied Evie with an adorableexpression on her face. "I can also make candy! Have you ever triedthem? And I'm pretty good at making small crafts too."

"When I was studying before," continued Evie excitedly, "I lovedsecretly making small toys during class like windmills or cars. I couldmake many things! And I could weave beautiful bracelets using redstring."

“I made many back then and sold them to my classmates."

"Why sell to them?" Jasper looked at her curiously.

"Because I need to make money. The boutique sells their scarves fortens of dollars, but I only charge ten. And my designs are even betterthan theirs, so my business is doing really well," Evie boasted abouther past success in school, her face glowing with pride.

“I've made so much pocket money from it and even sold them my littleclay figurines and toy cars," she continued.

"Why are you so obsessed with making money?" Jasper furrowed hisbrow, wondering if there was a bad history between Evie and the Antofamily. "Do your parents not support you?"

"Of course not. I'm not their biological child,” Evie rolled her eyes. "Butlater on, I become an athlete and earned prize money from winningcompetitions.”

She finished the last bite of noodles before wiping her mouth clean.“That was delicious! Thank you!"

Watching Evie's carefree demeanor made Jasper's heart ache slightly.When he thought about how poorly she had been treated by the Antofamily in the past, his protective instincts kicked in.

"You go rest in your room; let me wash up," he offered kindly.

"How can I let you wash dishes when you cooked? Let me do it!" Eviequickly grabbed both their bowls and headed towards the kitchen butslipped on something along the way causing both bowls to shatter intopieces.

Jasper chuckled at what happened before saying,"Well, now no onehas to wash dishes."

Evie blushed as she picked herself up off of the floor while holding backtears of embarrassment over what just happened.

"Are you hurt?" The man didn't ask about his broken dishware butinstead asked if she was okay while looking down at her worriedly.“No, I'm fine." She went to grab a broom but saw that Jasper hadcleaned up all of broken glass shards without any hesitation orcomplaint which only made Evie feel guilty for breaking his dishes.“It's no biggie; go rest now." Jasper smiled reassuringly at her beforeadding,

Evie turned around, dragging along with luggage towards staircasecorner when suddenly heard Jasper say, "Hey, wait."

She turned around, only to see him walking towards him, so she asked,"What's wrong?"

“I noticed that there's a piece of vegetable leaf stuck on your head.”"Really?" She wrinkled her nose, readying herself to touch head whenJasper said, "Let me help.”

She felt the man's warm palm caressing the top of her head and heeven rubbed it.
