Chapter 165: The Strange Pseudo-Romance Variety Show's Heartthrob (8)

"It's okay, I really like cooking, let me help."

Qiao Xi tied an apron around herself, thinking it was a bit unreasonable to let Luo Zhu cook alone.

However, Luo Zhu felt even more guilty.

After all, Qiao Xi worked alone at noon.

"You just take care of this part of the ingredients, I'll take care of the rest." Luo Zhu handed her another small bag.

"Okay." Qiao Xi took it.

When she approached, Luo Zhu couldn't help but look at her. The girl had tied her ponytail and rolled up her sleeves. She opened the small bag, took out the ingredients and started to process them.

He looked focused and didn't pay any attention to him at all.

Luo Zhu lowered his head and continued to work on the task at hand, but the corner of his eye always lingered on Qiao Xi.

There were only him and Qiao Xi in the kitchen.

For no reason, you will care more about the other person's existence.

While Luo Zhu was distracted, he suddenly remembered what he had forgotten: "The soup base..."

As soon as he spoke, he heard Qiao Xi's response.

"I put it in."

The girl looked at the ingredients he was preparing, and her beautiful eyes seemed to have the magic to see through everything. While Luo Zhu was cooking, Qiao Xi seemed to be able to see through his thoughts.

Put the processed ingredients where he can reach them.

Looking down, he saw that it was exactly what he needed.

This tacit understanding also made Luo Zhu stunned, but Qiao Xi thought it was normal. When helping the chef, one needs to observe and know what the other person wants to do.

A restaurant's kitchen is a battlefield.

Every second wasted wasted time, especially during peak hours at noon and evening. Calm thinking and insight became particularly important at this time, something Qiao Xi developed when she was helping out with cooking.

Judge what the chef wants to cook based on the available ingredients and cooking procedures.

Then assist.

Luo Zhu was immersed in this tacit cooperation, occasionally glancing at Qiao Xi beside him.

A strand of hair fell to the side of her face, outlining the distinct contours of her cheeks. Her clear, bright eyes were filled with concentration, and her lips, a faint pink hue, were slightly pursed. Wearing an apron, she looked very gentle.

But her decisive and neat technique makes her look more heroic.

Luo Zhu also found her very attractive.

Their feelings quietly warmed up in the tacit cooperation. There was no need for excessive verbal communication. Qiao Xi understood what he wanted to do with just a glance.

The two smiled at each other.

The comments in the live broadcast room inexplicably smelled the scent of lilies blooming, and many people typed question marks on the public screen.

[Moshang Yanyu: ...The legendary lily has bloomed?]

[(●—●): I think it’s pretty good.]

[I'm lost: It's okay if there's a beast under the skirt]

[Pansy:? ? I didn't expect you guys would like this]

Yan Jing was chatting with Rong He and the others over there. While they were chatting, he realized that Qiao Xi was gone and heard some movement in the kitchen.

She was a little confused.

That girl went to cook again?

Thinking that the other party had just done it at noon, it would not be fair to do it again now, Yan Jing got up and went to the kitchen.

[Senlu: Yanjing still has three seconds to reach the battlefield]

[Don’t argue upstairs: the kitchen is a place full of disasters.]

A lot of comments expressed that they were watching the show and looking forward to the Shura scene between two women and one man.

“It’s here.”

The moment he discovered Luo Zhu and Qiao Xi, Yan Jing walked to Qiao Xi and took the heat-insulating gloves that the girl had just picked up.

"Let me do it, you go and rest for a while."

We can't let the girl do all the work, she just cooked lunch.

I don’t know why this child is so diligent.

Yan Jing couldn't help but look at Qiao Xi a few more times. When she walked to the girl, she just separated her from Luo Zhu.

"Then be careful of the heat."

When Qiao Xi saw Yan Jing take the heat-insulating gloves and put them on, she obediently walked aside and gave him some instructions.

"Hey, it's okay."

Yan Jing turned his head and looked at her.

"Is there anything else you haven't done? Oh, and get me an apron."

Seeing the little girl about to run to the other side to get a new apron, Yan Jing quickly reached out and grabbed her wrist.

"No need to go through so much trouble. Give me the one you're wearing and go take a rest."

"Ah? Okay."

Qiao Xi was stunned when she heard this, but she still took off her apron and helped Yan Jing put it on.

Also because the other party is now wearing heat-insulating gloves.

It was inconvenient to tie it, so Qiao Xi simply went around behind her to help tie it.

"Thank you~ You're so good."

Yan Jing pinched his throat and said something deliberately weird, which also made Qiao Xi laugh: "Haha, stop it, I'm leaving first."

"Okay, Captain Qiao, leave it to me!"

The little girl couldn't stop laughing now. Qiao Xi waved goodbye to Yan Jing. She didn't expect the heroine to be so funny.

Very cute.

Luo Zhu was always listening to what they were saying.

When he saw the little girl busying around Yan Jing and tying an apron for her, his face gradually turned cold.

I heard the two of them laughing again.

After Qiao Xi left, his expression grew even uglier. Yan Jing took over Qiao Xi's job and worked so hard that she didn't even notice the hostility from the people around her.

The audience in the live broadcast room was also stunned.

[(●—●): Uh… a man and a woman in the same frame, why don’t I feel any pink bubbles?]

[Mori Lu: More than that, the murderous aura is almost becoming tangible.]

[Borrowing the Wind to Hold You: Awesome!]

It didn't take long for Yan Jing and the others to bring out the dishes and call for dinner. Qiao Xi had informed them in advance that she didn't need to prepare her portion, so she didn't eat it.

Xia Jingqiu still looked very unhappy when she went downstairs.

She couldn't figure it out.

Why do these people still have the leisure to chat and laugh? Now she suspects that except for her, everyone else is a staff member of the program crew.

Otherwise Gan Xun'er would have died.

Can these people still chat and laugh while eating?

The more I thought about it, the more disgusted I felt. In the past, the most lively thing at the dinner table was the quarrels between Xia Jingqiu and Ji Yinchen, but today's dinner became particularly quiet.

But Yanjing is there to liven up the atmosphere.

It was quite harmonious and everyone could chat and laugh.

Xia Jingqiu could tolerate it at first, but as she listened to them talking and laughing, she became angry.

She dropped her chopsticks and stood up.

The other people at the table were stunned and subconsciously looked towards Xia Jingqiu.

"I'm so annoyed! I think you guys are all in the same group! I want to leave here and I won't record anymore!"

She no longer has any appetite.

Filled with rage, and not caring what the others at the table thought, Xia Jingqiu snorted coldly and went to the living room, dragging his suitcase, which he had already packed, and left.

Only Ji Yinchen and the others were left looking at each other in bewilderment.

They all want something special, so they come to this show to try their luck.

And life safety is guaranteed.

Death in the game simply means that the player is eliminated. People can still live well, but they will be sent out of the villa and return to normal life.

There's nothing to be serious about.

They also didn't know why Xia Jingqiu was so angry. Aren't the rules of the game clearly written in the text message?

"I'll go find her."

Rong He was still a little worried. He had just heard the door close, and guessed that Xia Jingqiu had gone out alone.

There's fog outside, where can I go?

He thought he should go and give her some advice, otherwise it would be too dangerous for the girl to be alone.

Rong He left the table and went out.

Only Luo Zhu Yanjing and the Ji family's twin brothers were left at the table.

"Well, let's eat first."

It was Yan Jing who broke the silence first, but after experiencing such a farce, no one was in the mood to joke anymore.
