"Are you sure this stuff is edible?" the system countered. She seemed to have forgotten that she needed the approval of her friends.

But I'm afraid I'll get a lot of criticism for doing that.

"Isn't this enough? And I guarantee this is my own original dish." Gu Luoqi's small eyes sparkled with great doubt.

"Then guess why others don't make this dish? Is it really because they can't think of it?" The system hesitated, not wanting to discourage her.

How much confidence does it take to have such an idea?

"Is this really not going to work?" Gu Luoqi asked with a pained expression.

Of course, she already knew the answer after listening to the system's words.

"Why don't you study the recipe first?" the system suggested.

After all, having a reference point is much better than her guessing blindly.

"Fine," Gu Luoqi said weakly.

The enthusiastic look he had just had is gone.

She sat down in the chair and then opened the recipe to study it.

Actually, this recipe book doesn't seem difficult at all, because she discovered that the book not only has pictures, but also videos when you click on the pictures.

"System, I've decided to just do whatever I want." Gu Luoqi glanced at the complicated steps and made her decision immediately.

"Sure," the system said calmly. Actually, the requirements for her weren't high; all it needed was for her to gain the approval of those around her.

Looking at the pork ribs she had just taken out to thaw, Gu Luoxi decided that she was going to stick with pork rib soup today.

After watching the video several times, she felt she had almost mastered it and began preparing to put it into practice.

She followed the steps one by one, gradually calming down from her initial flustered state, and eventually felt alright.

"Suddenly, it doesn't seem so difficult after all." Gu Luoqi said with a smile.

It seems she was overthinking things.

After she finished all of this, she opened the recipe again, turned to the page she had looked at before, and noticed a slight change at a glance.

Skill score for this test: 60

Proficiency: 30

Completion rate: 85%

Learning progress for this dish: 80

Level of mastery: 70

Summary: Good. We hope the host continues to do well.

Gu Luoqi's eyes widened: "Wow, wow, wow, that's amazing!" Why did she suddenly feel that this system skill was so awesome?

"Nonsense, when it comes to learning skills, everything the system does is professional." The little system said this with great pride, as if it would be wagging its tail to the sky if it had one.

"Are the other books like that too?" Gu Luoqi blinked, her eyes sparkling with a strong thirst for knowledge.

“That’s natural,” the system said.

Gu Luoxi's eyes lit up a little, and after hearing this, she felt even more confident about the future.

After reading the report, she started cooking rice. Then she looked at the extra vegetables she had just washed and found a few similar dishes on the recipe book to cook.

At that moment, Cheng Cheng's voice suddenly broke in: "Holy crap, are you serious?"

She had initially thought that with that dog's perseverance, he might just wander around the kitchen and then go back.

After all, everyone knows each other so well, how could she not understand her short attention span?

"Nonsense, why wouldn't I take it seriously?" Gu Luoqi began to speak arrogantly.

Cheng Cheng: Go ahead and brag, I'll just watch you brag quietly.

"Since you're already here, why don't you lend a hand?" Gu Luoqi decided to make full use of the resources.

Cheap labor is cheap, so why not use it?

"Help with what?" Cheng Cheng was completely bewildered. She was just passing by, so why was she being dragged into doing hard labor?

"Trying to eat for free without doing any work? How dare you be so shameless?" Gu Luoqi showed no mercy.

Cheng Cheng stared at her intently, her tone full of resentment: "You didn't say that before." Just now, when you were asking her for help with the problem, you were so humble and subservient. How come you've suddenly become so arrogant now? Who gave you the audacity?

Gu Luoqi smiled broadly: "Little Orange, you seem to have forgotten a saying: women are all fickle."

"Okay, that makes sense. What do you need to do? Hurry up!" Cheng Cheng gritted her teeth.

Okay, just you wait. Fortune changes every thirty years.

"Let's just peel a potato," Gu Luoqi said with a smile.

Because of what happened that morning, she still had a psychological aversion to peeling potatoes, so she let this guy do it for her.

"Why are you making me do this now? Why not Qi Sheng?" Cheng Cheng asked with a smile, but Gu Luoqi felt there was something strange about her tone.

"Please stop talking nonsense and hurry up and get to work. I need it later," Gu Luoqi said angrily.

Cheng Cheng had no choice but to accept her fate and get to work. There was nothing she could do; what could she do when this person was so arrogant?

"Speaking of which, school is about to start, are you planning to move into the dorm?" Cheng Cheng suddenly remembered this question.

Because it's senior year of high school and the academic workload is heavy, many day students have applied to live in the dormitory. This saves them time traveling to and from school every day, and they can also get some sleep.

Her words successfully reminded Gu Luoqi of those days. Because Su Yan didn't live at school, neither did she. They basically went to and from school together every day, and she was incredibly excited during that time.

Actually, if she were to commute, she would have to get up at least an hour earlier every day. Looking back now, she feels like she was out of her mind before.

Oh, no, it's that he has amazing perseverance.

However, it seems that Cheng Cheng is living at school; he said it's to save time for sleeping.

“I might need to apply,” she said after thinking for a moment.

She could never commute to school because of Su Yan, so she might as well sleep in with Xiao Chengzi.

"I might want some too," Cheng Cheng said with a smile as she peeled potatoes.

"Is it because you want to sleep in?" Gu Luoqi seemed to see right through Cheng Cheng.

“That’s one aspect, but can’t I do it for studying?” Cheng Cheng countered.

It seems that she doesn't have a very high image in her friends' eyes. She needs to work harder so that she doesn't look down on her.

"How could I not know you? Please, we've been friends for over ten years..." Gu Luoqi's tone was slightly exaggerated.

Actually, they were in the same class when they were in kindergarten.

We just didn't get to know each other very well after that, until we were in the same class again in high school.

"I'm serious. I suddenly feel like I should give it my all." Cheng Cheng looked at Gu Luoqi with a serious expression.

Seeing her like this, Gu Luoxi knew that she had made up her mind. She knew that Xiao Chengzi was very stubborn and would do her best to complete the decision she made.

It seems she didn't tell her these things in her past life, perhaps because she thought she wouldn't understand?

It seems that Xiao Chengzi has realized her change this time.

This is truly something to celebrate.

"Then wish us success." Gu Luoqi looked down at Cheng Cheng, her eyes full of seriousness.

Sometimes, it's good to have dreams, especially when they have the potential to come true.

Cheng Cheng was slightly taken aback, then smiled faintly, revealing two sweet dimples on her face: "Okay, wish us success."
