Chapter 266 Red wine, or not?
Ye watched them leave.
Luo Shu took Zhou Zhiyi's hand and went downstairs. The two chatted and laughed, and she even picked up Zhou Zhiyi's phone to look at the name on it.
"What are you talking about? We don't even know if it's a boy or a girl yet, and you've already come up with names?" Luo Shu said with a smile, as Zhou Zhiyi led her along the way.
“I like both boys and girls, I’ve already decided, you can choose, or he can draw lots himself,” Zhou Zhiyi said with a smile. “I’m going to be a grandma soon.”
She reached out and carefully touched her lower abdomen.
“I don’t think we’ll be having dinner at home tonight. Should I go to your place?” Zhou Zhiyi said. “Ah Zhan is such a secretive person. We didn’t even know he bought that house before. We only found out later that it was all renovated. We didn’t even get a chance to visit. I don’t think I’ve ever cooked a single meal for you. I even feel like I’m a wicked mother-in-law.”
"Haha, then you'll have to come over and cook for me more often, otherwise you'll really be considered a wicked mother-in-law," Luo Shu teased, laughing until her stomach hurt.
Yu Zhan originally planned to move in after the wedding, but he couldn't resist any longer.
Zhou Zhiyi had never cooked for Luo Shu. As a wealthy woman of Zhou Zhiyi's stature, she rarely had the opportunity to enter the kitchen.
Moreover, Yu Zheng is a doting husband and would never allow Zhou Zhiyi to enter the kitchen, let alone cook.
Even Yu Zhan probably rarely gets to eat the meals Zhou Zhiyi cooks.
After they went downstairs, Butler Li drove them back.
Yu Zhan probably won't be able to eat Luo Shu's cooking tonight.

At the same time, Wei Qianqian was in the kitchen looking at her phone, following the tutorial in the video step by step to put the butter into the frying pan. The rosemary and garlic next to her were emitting a fragrant aroma as they were fried in the butter.
She hummed a little tune, holding a spatula in one hand and a pot lid in the other in front of her, protecting herself without showing any sign of nervousness.
She turned up the volume on her phone and carefully placed the steak into the frying pan.
"Sizzle..."
The noise from the kitchen grew louder and louder, and thick smoke billowed out. The exhaust fan was working hard, but it couldn't stop the odor from sizzling in the frying pan.
She quickly took her phone away and carefully moved the steak on the frying pan with a spatula.
"Seven-tenths cooked, seven-tenths cooked, be good, don't burn it..." she murmured, as if she were talking to the pot in front of her.
She pursed her lips and continued humming a little tune.
Although she knew her cooking skills weren't great, she was confident she could at least cook it properly.
Lu Min had a lot of food in her refrigerator, but she really didn't know how to cook, so she took out the steak, which she felt was the easiest to cook, and fried it.
Lu Min didn't come back at noon. He sent her a message saying that she had gone to the company and told her to make herself something to eat, as the housekeeper he hired wouldn't arrive until tomorrow.
Wei Qianqian ate some snacks she had secretly brought from home yesterday at noon, and then slept until the afternoon before getting up.
She had originally planned to wait for Lu Min to come back before asking him to cook, but she was so hungry and didn't know when he would return, so she started cooking herself.
"Whoosh..."
A burst of fire, accompanied by specks of oil, rose from the pot, startling Wei Qianqian, who immediately took two steps back.
Unexpectedly, she bumped into a hard and hot wall of flesh, the scalding heat reaching the top of her head, making her feel warm.
Before Wei Qianqian could even look, she could already smell the familiar scent on the man.
Immediately, her hand was grasped by his rough, large hand, which held her waist and steadied her heels.
He took the lid off the pot and put it on the frying pan, then turned off the gas.
Wei Qianqian's petite body was enveloped by his perfect inverted triangle shape, and she was completely encircled in his arms.
My heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was about to burst out of my chest.
The scorching heat behind me could still be clearly felt even through two layers of fabric.
Are you hungry?
His voice was hoarse as he took the spatula from her hand and placed it aside.
Wei Qianqian was so nervous that she forgot to answer his question.
"Didn't you eat lunch?" He frowned.
"No..." Wei Qianqian turned around guiltily, took two steps back, and kept a meter away from him.
Lu Min glanced at the distance between the two and chuckled.
He received a call at noon and was busy at the company for a while. Only after he finished did he remember that someone at home hadn't eaten. He thought she would at least know how to cook something, but it turned out she really couldn't.
I don't know how she got through those years away from home.
"You didn't get burned, did you?"
"Um?"
Wei Qianqian thought he would scold her, or at least not in the way she was now.
Lu Min seems to have really changed, he seems to have become gentler?
"I'm asking if you got burned." Lu Min raised his voice considerably.
Wei Qianqian was taken aback. He was still as fierce as ever. How could Lu Min possibly be gentle?
But she accepted it; she had gotten used to Lu Min's attitude and never thought that Lu Min would change for her.
I don't expect it.
I just hope that after we get married, he'll hang around in front of me less.
"No," she replied softly.
Lu Min frowned, suppressed his imposing aura, and said, "Wait over there."
"Oh." Wei Qianqian pouted.
"Wait a minute, give me the apron," Lu Min said.
Wei Qianqian hurriedly took off her apron and handed it to him.
Lu Min took it and skillfully put it on.
Wei Qianqian obediently sat down on the sofa, not daring to approach him.
He was already being kind by not cursing himself for almost setting the kitchen on fire; now it seems he's preparing to cook for her.
Wei Qianqian felt as if something had touched her heart, and her emotions stirred. He wasn't that difficult to get along with...
Wei Qianqian was startled and quickly looked away. Was Lu Min easy to get along with?
Forget it.
She lay on the sofa, bored, scrolling through her phone and looking at men with abs.
Lu Min opened the pot lid, frowning as he looked at the steak that had been fried until it was dry.
This is top-quality Wagyu beef, and she just ruined it like that. What a waste!
He couldn't help but glance back and saw Wei Qianqian giving a crazy thumbs-up to the eight-pack abs...
"..."
He frowned and began cleaning up the mess in the kitchen, then took out two more portions of Wagyu beef from the refrigerator to thaw.
His movements were very skilled; his craftsmanship was undeniable.
He usually cooks by himself when he's alone, and the nanny only comes into the kitchen occasionally when he's not free.
He has unique insights into fitness and diet, and is quite disciplined in both areas.
Seeing Wei Qianqian's chaotic eating and living habits, he even felt for a moment that Wei Qianqian was bringing him bad luck.
But when I can't see her, I feel like something is missing.
He even felt a strange pleasure whenever he was with her, and there was always a force in his heart pushing him closer to her.
Thinking of this, he glanced again at the woman lying on the sofa, smiling at the male models sweeping their legs.
"..."
She likes male models.
"Wei Qianqian," Lu Min called out.
Wei Qianqian was so startled that she dropped her phone, which hit her chin. "Ouch..."
She hurriedly got up.
"What, what are you doing?"
"Red wine, want some?" Lu Min's lips curled slightly.
Steak should naturally be paired with red wine.
"Yes!" Wei Qianqian looked at Lu Min with shining eyes. "The second to last row on the wine cabinet, the fifth bottle, is that one okay?" She couldn't remember the name of that red wine for a moment.
"..."
This woman actually took advantage of his absence to wander around aimlessly, even entering his private wine room, and took a fancy to that bottle of red wine that he had treasured for many years.
"Okay." Lu Min nodded, his expression unreadable.
It seems he's saddled with an alcoholic; even she knows about this kind of thing.
Wei Qianqian suddenly thought of something and pursed her lips.
I shouldn't be drinking with Lu Min right now.
