"Pork ribs," Jie Jingshan said, her eyes crinkling into a smile.
Qin Xiang had made two bowls of braised pork ribs with potatoes. He set one down in front of Qin Mei and the other in front of Jie Anqi. But then, with a long reach, he snatched away Jie Anqi's bowl of ribs and swapped it with the plate of green vegetables in front of Jing Qi.
"Brother Xiang, I want to eat pork ribs too!" Jie Anqi protested.
Qin Xiang ignored her, picking up a piece of pork rib and placing it in Jing Qi's bowl. "Jing Qi, have a taste of my cooking."
Under Jie Anqi's furious glare, Jie Jingshan picked up her chopsticks, lifted a rib from her bowl, and took an elegant bite. "Delicious."
"Brother Xiang, I want pork ribs too! Get me a piece," Jie Anqi demanded.
Qin Xiang continued to ignore her. He simply picked up another rib, placed it in Jing Qi's bowl, and looked at her dotingly. "If you like it, have some more."
"Mm, okay," Jing Qi nodded obediently.
