Chapter 576: Chapter 576 Rumors after Divorce 8_1

"Auntie He, won’t you give it a try? The chili oil my mom made is really aromatic," said Chen Ya’nan as she went straight to add some chili oil into He Zhilan’s bowl, with this single action nearly shocking He Zhilan out of her wits.

"Auntie He can’t handle that much chili!" the political commissar’s wife was too late to shout, Chen Ya’nan had already poured a spoonful into He Zhilan’s bowl.

At this moment, He Zhilan was truly stunned. While she did crave spicy food, she couldn’t really handle food that was too spicy. It was probably the climate, even in her hometown, she couldn’t handle spicy food as it would easily cause an imbalanced internal body heat.

"I only added a little, Auntie He, give it a go! It’s really super flavorful!" Chen Ya’nan was eagerly looking at He Zhilan. To verify that her words were compelling, she added chili to her own bowl, started eating it heartily in front of He Zhilan, only then did she continue to coax He Zhilan into having a taste.

Seeing that even a child like Chen Ya’nan could happily eat it, He Zhilan thought to give it a try. Maybe, while the chili smelled strong, it was just aromatic and not as spicy as she imagined.

With this mentality, He Zhilan first bowed her head to drink some dumpling soup, but just one sip nearly brought tears to her eyes due to the spiciness.

"Chen Ya’nan, you little trickster," He Zhilan fanned her mouth intensely as she exclaimed, "It’s so spicy!"

Seeing He Zhilan in this state, Chen Ya’nan was laughing heartily, "I don’t think it’s spicy! Auntie He, you really can’t handle spicy food!"

The political commissar’s wife quickly got up and poured He Zhilan some tea, but as the tea had been in a thermos, it was warm, and thus, it couldn’t relieve the spiciness.

Watching He Zhilan’s eyes and nose turn red from the pain, Chen Ya’nan finally realized that He Zhilan truly could not handle spicy food, and suddenly suggested, "My classmate told me that kissing can relieve spiciness! Should Uncle He give Auntie He a kiss! Otherwise, it would be really uncomfortable to see Auntie He suffering like this."

Upon hearing the little girl’s shocking remark, all the adults at the table turned to stone.

"Who told you that kissing can relieve spiciness?" The political commissar, Chen Zheng, glowered.

"A boy in my class," said Chen Ya’nan, clueless about where she got it wrong, and elaborately explained, "One day I was eating with some classmates in the cafeteria, and one of them accidentally used too much chili sauce and was in tears from the spiciness. Then a boy said he would help her relieve the spiciness, saying that a kiss would do the trick."

"Nowadays students, so young and yet their minds are so not innocent!" Chen Zheng was so angry he nearly slammed the table, "Stay away from that boy in the future! That boy, obviously has bad intentions!"

"So it’s not true?" Chen Ya’nan blinked and glanced at He Zhilan who was red from the spiciness, and said to He Teng, "Uncle He, look how uncomfortable Auntie He is, how do you know it won’t work if you don’t give it a try? Unlike my classmate and that boy, who have a boy-girl relationship, you and Auntie He are husband and wife, what’s wrong with a kiss? At most, mom and dad and I won’t watch!"

"Even dumplings can’t keep your mouth shut! Eat your meal, and if you talk nonsense again, take your bowl and eat on the balcony!" Chen Zheng scolded Chen Ya’nan, then glanced awkwardly at He Teng and He Zhilan, "You should know that Uncle He and Auntie He are divorced!"

"Auntie He said they’ll remarry soon since they’re divorced, so they’re still a couple, what’s the difference? I really don’t understand you adults. If you don’t like the green hat, don’t wear it. Change it for a red one, it’s festive!" Chen Ya’nan grumbled, then hugged her bowl and started eating her dumplings without speaking.
