Chapter 512: To Capture a Person, Start with Their Stomach

“That’s definitely not possible,” Yuan Siyin muttered softly.

His voice rose slightly at the end, and if you listened carefully, you could even detect a hint of pleasure in it: "Do you have an apron?"

"Yes, I'll get it for you."

As Yuan Siyin took the apron off the hook and handed it to him, she gestured with her chin, saying, "Here, this is for you to cook. I didn't force you."

"Washing vegetables? I don't have hands." Yu Shiyan coughed succinctly.

Unfortunately, he was more than half a head taller than her, so Yuan Siyin had no choice but to resign herself to standing on tiptoe and "lower her head."

Yu Shiyan appeared to be obedient and did as she was told, but in reality, she only slightly turned her head, and Yu Shiyan still couldn't reach it.

Yuan Siyin couldn't help but feel a little annoyed: "Yu Shiyan!"

"good."

Why is she still so easily amused?

As Yu Shiyan thought about it, he bent down slightly. However, after Yuan Siyin put on the apron, she did not hug his waist, but went around behind him and simply tied the apron.

She flicked her fingers up and down to tie a simple bow, then gave it a quick snap. "Alright, I'll help you wash the vegetables."

"No need, but I need to make a call. Could you dial it for me and hold it up? My phone is in my pocket."

Yu Shiyan raised his hand so that she could take the phone.

Yuan Siyin thought about it for a moment. Since she had nothing else to do, this request wasn't unreasonable. She nodded in agreement and then took her phone out of his pocket.

Because Yu Shiyan's phone wasn't password protected, she unlocked it immediately after getting it and accessed the phonebook: "Who should I call?"

"My mom."

Yu Shiyan peeled the potatoes, cut them into chunks, and soaked them in water. Then he started cutting eggplants. Putting everything else aside, his knife skills were quite good.

Yuan Siyin found Yu's mother's number and dialed it. As soon as the call connected, Yu Shiyan said unhurriedly, "Turn on the video."

"Turn on video?!"

Yuan Siyin exclaimed in surprise, "This is my home!"

Yu Shiyan glanced at her: "I know."

"No, wouldn't this be inconvenient?"

"It's alright, my mom is fine." Yu Shiyan deliberately misinterpreted her meaning.

I'm the one who's inconvenienced, you bastard!

Yuan Siyin wanted to roll her eyes at him, but she held back for the sake of her image. She clicked on the video call and then quickly switched cameras.

Just as Yu's mother caught a glimpse of a figure, the camera immediately switched back to her son. Seeing the unfamiliar background, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "Where are you, son? This isn't where you live. Are you with Fengqiu?"

Yuan Siyin mouthed and gestured frantically, "Yes! Yes!"

Yu Shiyan glanced at her with a half-smile, then looked away: "She told me to say yes."

"she?"

Upon hearing the word "her," Chu Huan immediately became excited: "Is it Si Yin? Is this her home?"

Seeing that her son was willing to cook for a girl, she felt both gratified and somewhat moved.

Good lad, you've learned all by yourself, even knowing to win people over by winning them over through their stomach.

Seeing that she had been exposed, Yuan Siyin felt it would be unreasonable not to speak and greet her, so she could only say "Hello, Auntie."

Chu Huan happily responded twice, urging her to switch the camera back: "Quick, quick, let Auntie take a good look."

Yuan Siyin was a little embarrassed. "Um... Auntie, why don't you look at President Yu instead?"

"Don't call him President Yu or anything like that, just call him Shi Yan." Chu Huan's voice sounded rather displeased.
