Born as a space beast, Shi Chu possessed a strong sense of self-preservation and was inherently selfish. She revelled in luxury, indulging in fine food and clothing. She rejected phrases like “suff...

"What are you talking about?" Wei E shouted in the kitchen. She saw that Zhu Shichu and Wei Yang seemed to be very engaged in the conversation, so she asked curiously.
Zhu Shichu and Wei Yang looked at each other and immediately said in unison: "Nothing!" Neither of them intended to tell Wei E about the incident between Liu Chengyu and Wen Yucheng. Anyway, they had already accepted the punishment they deserved for what they had done in the past.
Wei Yang told Zhu Shichu about some things in school and chatted with her about the gossips of several influential people. Zhu Shichu didn't expect that he was such a gossipy person.
More than half an hour later, Wei E's cake was finally ready. She brought it out to them with great interest and said proudly, "Look! I made it. It's pretty good, right? Haha..."
"You must try it." Wei E said excitedly, and then she cut two pieces very actively and brought them to Zhu Shichu and Wei Yang respectively, saying with anticipation, "Help me try it and see if it tastes good..."
Zhu Shichu looked at the "unattractive" cake in front of her. Although she had helped with the making of it before, she couldn't guarantee that the taste would be okay. Moreover, the cake was baked, but it didn't have any fragrance at all, and its shape was not beautiful either. It was just like a plain "steamed cake" that was steamed out of steam. It really couldn't arouse Zhu Shichu's appetite.
Wei Yang was much more direct. He said with disdain, "Can you really eat this cake? Don't hurt me. I have an exam tomorrow."
"Of course it's edible! Don't be fooled by its ugly appearance, it must taste good. I made it according to the steps in the teaching video on Star Brain, and copied the seasoning methods perfectly. The taste will definitely not be bad, so don't worry!" Wei E said confidently.
Wei Yang had no choice but to frown and gently cut a small piece of cake with a fork, put it in his mouth, and chewed it for a few bites. Suddenly, as if a spring was stepped on, he jumped up suddenly, walked towards the sink, and spit out the cake in his mouth after a while.
"Hey! What are you vomiting? Is it really that disgusting?" Wei E felt deeply hurt when she saw his action, and followed him in to question Wei Yang.
Wei Yang had already rinsed his mouth with water several times, finally getting rid of the sweet taste in his mouth. Hearing her words, he nodded without hesitation: "Yes, it really is that unpalatable. Did you use sugar as flour to make the cake base? It's so sweet that it makes me sick."
"Is it really sweet?" Wei E didn't quite believe it. She hurried out and cut a little for herself to eat. Then her face changed immediately, but she didn't spit it out. Instead, she swallowed the cake with a grim face and drank several sips of water quickly. Only then did she feel a little better in her mouth.
Zhu Shichu watched their performance with a smile, wisely did not eat any, and luckily escaped the harm of Wei E's cooking.
“Why is it so sweet? I clearly followed the steps in the video…” Wei E was puzzled and said dejectedly. She spent so much effort and hard work to make the cake, but it tasted like this. She felt disappointed and frustrated.
Zhu Shichu patted her hands and said, "It's okay, this is your first time, it's normal to make some mistakes."
"Hey, hey! If you say that, she will most likely continue to make it, and you will have to continue to eat her failed cakes in the future. Aren't you afraid of eating these weird-tasting things?" Wei Yang interrupted Zhu Shichu and raised his eyebrows to remind her.
When Zhu Shichu heard this, he could not say anything to comfort Wei E. Wei Yang was fine, after all, he seldom came to see Wei E, but she was different. She was Wei E's roommate. If Wei E made a cake, she would not be able to escape the fate of being a taster...
When Zhu Shichu thought about eating those weird-tasting things in the future, he couldn't help but shudder. This was really scary!
"Wei Yang, what do you mean by this? Do you think I won't make progress in the future? Why do you look down on me like this?" Wei E immediately shouted unconvinced.
"Haha, don't you know what your level is? You've never been successful in learning to cook at home before. Do you think you can make sudden progress by switching to making cakes? You're forcing yourself when you don't have the talent. You're obviously not good at it but you like to act pretentiously." Wei Yang exposed her scars without any hesitation.
The Wei siblings quarreled with each other for a long time before they stopped. Wei E threw away the failed cake. Wei Yang said goodbye to the two of them slowly. When he left the house, he suddenly exchanged a look with Zhu Shichu.
Zhu Shichu was a little confused, but curious about what he was trying to do, so he made an excuse that he was going out to take out the trash, and followed Wei Yang downstairs.
"Do you have something to tell me?" Zhu Shichu asked Wei Yang while holding a garbage bag.
Wei Yang nodded: "I forgot to tell you before, although Liu Chengyu was arrested, his elder brother is with a wealthy woman with some power. His elder brother loves his younger brother very much, and he will probably try every means to help Liu Chengyu reduce the charges. He is likely to investigate what happened that night, and you will most likely be noticed by them, so be careful. Liu Chengyu's elder brother is a very crazy person. If they find out that you had any contact with his brother that night, it may be bad for you..."
Zhu Shichu appreciated his kindness, so he smiled and thanked him: "Thank you for reminding me, I will pay attention to it."
The two walked downstairs to the dormitory and were about to go their separate ways when suddenly a somewhat frivolous voice appeared: "Hey, isn't this Wei Yang, the head of our sophomore command department? He actually appeared downstairs of the girls' dormitory? Oh, it turns out he's with a little beauty..."
The boy who said the meaningful words quickly walked in front of Zhu Shichu and Wei Yang. He was an equally tall boy, handsome, but not as outstanding as Wei Yang. Moreover, his eyes were obviously hostile towards Wei Yang, and Zhu Shichu saw it at a glance.
"Second brother, it's you." Wei Yang seemed to have just noticed him and gave a very annoying smile, "Why are you here too? Are you secretly following me?"
When the second brother heard what he said, he immediately jumped up and down: "Who followed you? No, who are you calling the second brother?!"
"I'm calling you. Aren't you always ranked second in every exam and never beat me? You're the perennial runner-up, aren't you?" Wei Yang raised his eyebrows. No one would believe what he said if he didn't do it on purpose.
The second guy in front of him was so angry that his chest kept heaving, his face turned red, and his fists were clenched tightly. If it weren't for the Capital Star University's rules strictly prohibiting students from fighting, he would probably have hit Wei Yang's handsome face hard.
"Don't be so complacent. Do you think you can always stay in the first place? It's just luck! I will beat you one day." The second brother suppressed his anger and said to Wei Yang with gritted teeth.
