Next to the oil lamp, Nan Feng lit two candles. The two of them sat by the candlelight, snacking on melon seeds and peanuts, and chatting away.
As Nan Feng was peeling a peanut, she said, "It was fortunate that two hooligans caused trouble here today. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to sit down and chat. I usually avoided bothering you because I was busy, so my opportunities to see you were few and far between."
"I really wish you'd come to see me more often," Ye Ge replied in his cheesy way.
The peanut shell was a bit hard to crack. Nan Feng could be a bit clumsy with small things, just like her clumsy embroidering. Just as she finally cracked the shell, hearing what Ye Ge said made her lose focus. And with a slip of the hand, the peanut kernel fell onto the floor.
She was about to pick it up, but Ye Ge stopped her, "Don't eat it, since it fell on the floor. Let me peel them for you."
So, Nan Feng gave up on the peanut on the floor and opened her mouth again, "Ah..."
