Chapter 650


    When Jasper was ready to use them, he found that the vegetables in the basin had been ruined by


    Evie''s hands.


    He couldn''t help but chuckle, "You wash vegetables with so much force."


    Evie blushed and rubbed her hands apologetically."It''s my first time washing vegetables. I can''t control


    my strength."


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


    into the pot.


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


    Maybe she was thinking too much.


    Although the vegetable leaves were a bit mushy from being washed too hard, 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 on the table.


    Evie eximed and picked up her fork to eat but then remembered that Jasper hadn''te over yet so


    she quickly put down her fork again.


    When Jasper brought over another bowl of noodles, he saw Evie sitting upright waiting for him.


    He couldn''t help but smile when he saw this. "There is no one else here; 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 and unpretentious.


    Jasper felt this bowl of noodles tasted especially good today when he thought Evie worked together

    with him on it!


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


    "Thank you for giving me that little y figurine; I really like it." This was actually his first time receiving


    a gift from a girl.


    He wanted to say that he would return something back as well but after some thought, he decided not


    to bring it up until he was ready.


    "I''m particrly good at making y figurines; I can make one in just minutes," said Evie nonchntly.


    "So there''s no need to thank me; It''s effortless."


    "I know how to do many things," replied Evie with an adorable expression on her face. "I can also make


    candy! Have you ever tried them? And I''m pretty good at making small crafts too."


    "When I was studying before," continued Evie excitedly, "I loved secretly making small toys during ss


    like windmills or cars. I could make many things! And I could weave beautiful bracelets using red


    string."


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


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


    "Because I need to make money. The boutique sells their scarves for tens of dors, but I only charge


    ten. And my designs are even better than theirs, so my business is doing really well," Evie boasted


    about her past sess in school, her face glowing with pride.


    "I''ve made so much pocket money from it and even sold them my little y figurines and toy cars," she


    continued.


    "Why are you so obsessed with making money?" Jasper furrowed his brow, wondering if there was a


    bad history between Evie and the Anto family. "Do your parents not support you?"


    "Of course not. I''m not their biological child," Evie rolled her eyes. "Butter on, I be an athlete


    and earned prize money from winningpetitions."


    She finished thest 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 Anto family 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!" Evie quickly grabbed both their bowls


    and headed towards the kitchen but slipped on something along the way causing both bowls to shatter


    into pieces.


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


    Evie blushed as she picked herself up off of the floor while holding back tears of embarrassment over


    what just happened.


    "Are you hurt?" The man didn''t ask about his broken dishware but instead 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 had cleaned up all of broken ss shards


    without any hesitation orint which only made Evie feel guilty for breaking his dishes.


    "It''s no biggie; go rest now." Jasper smiled reassuringly at her before adding,


    Evie turned around, dragging along with luggage towards staircase corner 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 when Jasper said, "Let me help."


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