Chapter 1577: Chapter 1481: Their Secret
Xia Yangyang hurried over.
Then she carried the pot from Jiang Han’s hands inside.
She said, "Hurry up and come in."
Jiang Han finally freed his hands and brought over a bunch of ingredients.
Xia Yangyang said to Xingxing and Xia Ye, "This is Uncle Jiang."
Xingxing and Xia Ye politely greeted him, "Hello, Uncle Jiang."
Jiang Han looked at Xingxing and suddenly seemed a bit dazed.
Xia Yangyang watched Jiang Han, lost in thought.
She suddenly felt a sense of unease.
Xingxing is Gong Xue’er’s daughter.
Although she doesn’t look much like Gong Xue’er.
There are always traces of Gong Xue’er in her eyebrows.
Previously, Jiang Han hadn’t really noticed Xingxing.
But now...
Xia Yangyang really feared Jiang Han might figure something out.
But soon, Jiang Han showed a smile.
Jiang Han turned to Xia Yangyang and said, "Yangyang, these two kids are so adorable. You are really blessed, a complete family."
At this moment, Xia Yangyang didn’t explain anything, letting Jiang Han think Xingxing was her child.
Jiang Han walked to the dining table.
He unpacked the ingredients one by one and laid them out on the table.
Xingxing was already diligently bringing over bowls and chopsticks.
Then everyone sat around the square dining table.
The hot pot quickly started boiling.
Everyone began eating hot pot.
The base Jiang Han brought was very authentic, fresh, and spicy.
Xia Yangyang ate until sweat covered her forehead, and her tongue was numb.
But she couldn’t stop.
Of course, Xingxing ate from the bone broth pot, and Xia Ye didn’t like spicy food either.
Instead, Xia Yangyang and Jiang Han enjoyed it immensely.
Jiang Han said, "I remember there was a time back in school when a few of us friends had dinner together, and we ate hot pot."
At that time, we played truth or dare, and you lost and chose dare. As a result, Happy made you eat the hot pot base, and you really gritted your teeth and ate half a pot of chili peppers, with tears streaming down, and refused to admit defeat."
Xia Yangyang laughed, "You still remember that incident. It’s really so embarrassing now when I think about it."
Indeed, they were playing truth or dare at that time.
Xia Yangyang remembered that Jiang Han lost and chose truth.
Everyone asked him to pick someone and tell a secret.
In the end, Jiang Han picked her.
The secret Jiang Han told was: I like Gong Xue’er.
It was then that Xia Yangyang learned Jiang Han’s secret.
And she’s kept that secret for him ever since.
Thinking back now, youth was really beautiful, but also painful.
Both seemed to recall many things from the past.
The atmosphere gradually fell into silence again.
Xia Yangyang suddenly stood up.
She pulled out two bottles of fruit-flavored sparkling wine from the counter.
Xia Yangyang usually didn’t drink alcohol because she wasn’t good at handling her liquor and feared making a fool of herself.
But the fruit wine from Japan was quite good, with low alcohol content and a rich fruity taste, and drinking it as a beverage was very nice.
This was the best thing Xia Yangyang found when she arrived in Japan, and she planned to bring a few bottles back for Gu Qichen to try.
Xia Yangyang poured a glass of orange wine for Jiang Han and said, "This glass is for the past, the past cannot be chased, let’s forget all those bad memories."
Jiang Han clinked glasses with Xia Yangyang, "Alright, this glass is for the past, from now on let’s not hold on."
Xia Yangyang and Jiang Han both drank it all in one go.
Xia Yangyang poured another glass and said, "This glass is for tomorrow, may tomorrow be better, and may you find the girl you love."
Jiang Han smiled, said nothing, then tilted his head and finished the drink.
