"Zhuang Yan cleaned the kitchen by himself, so why doesn't he deserve to eat? Food is distributed according to the division of labor, so he should get a share. On the contrary, you did the least and talked the most. Does that mean you have an extra piece of gossip? Or did your mother not teach you to respect people?"
Is Lu Yan throwing a tantrum? All because of Zhuang Yan?
An Xinrong was stunned. This was the first time in her life someone had said such hurtful things to her, especially since it was being broadcast live. An Xinrong's eyes reddened with grievance: "Lu Yan, how dare you say that to me? Don't think that just because you're Wanwan's aunt, I won't dare to scold you!"
Lu Yan crossed her arms: "Then go ahead and curse, I'm listening."
To put it bluntly, An Xinrong has a childish temper. To put it mildly, she's brainless; to put it more bluntly, she's ill-mannered. Even if you let her swear, she won't say anything meaningful.
Lu Yan participated in this program for one person only; she wasn't interested in anyone else.
From An Xinrong's words, everyone learned that Lu Yan is Xia Wan's aunt, and Xia Wan is Zhuang Yan's ex-fiancée.
This relationship finally makes it clear why Lu Yan knows Zhuang Yan and speaks well of him; it's probably because she's an elder.
Fang Chen paused for a moment and said, "We can't contact Zhuang Yan without his phone. Why don't we eat first and save Zhuang Yan's portion for him?"
"I'm going to find him."
"I'm going to find him."
Everyone looked over, and saw Lu Yan and Jiang Ning speak at the same time.
The two exchanged a glance, Jiang Ning's eyes filled with wariness: "Miss Lu, you've had a long morning, why don't you sit down and have a proper meal? I'll go find Xiao Yan."
"I'm so angry with some people that I can't eat right now, so I'll just take a walk to calm down. Also, Ms. Jiang, I've wanted to remind you for a long time that it's not good for you to be so close to Zhuang Yan." She could tell that although Jiang Ning acted very close to Zhuang Yan, Zhuang Yan had always treated her as just an ordinary friend and didn't have any deep feelings for her.
Jiang Ning said coldly, "I've called him Xiao Yan since we were little. Zhuang Yan isn't worried, so why are you?"
"What I'm afraid of is that your fans are getting impatient, after all, Zhuang Yan has already been criticized badly enough online."
Jiang Ning felt a lump in her throat.
The atmosphere between the two was like a taut bowstring.
They're already arguing?
For Zhuang Yan's sake?
The director, who had been silent until now, suddenly interjected, "There's no need to look for him anymore, Zhuang Yan is back."
Zhuang Yan arrived home just in time, accompanied by Fishing Bro. Both of them were carrying stainless steel basins and had fresh vegetables hanging from their wrists.
Zhuang Yan entered the house and clearly sensed that something was wrong. He put the pickled fish on the table and took the fish porridge from the fishing brother: "Brother, thank you for bringing me back."
"It's okay, I'll be going now." Ordinary people are still not used to facing so many cameras, so after putting down the vegetables in his hand, the fishing guy quickly left.
Zhuang Yan acted as if nothing had happened, looking at the boiled vegetables and crispy rice on the table.
"Let's eat."
Ling Xuan stepped forward and asked, "Where did you get this fish soup?"
"I made it myself, but I borrowed my neighbor's kitchen."
Where did the fish come from?
"I caught it."
"What about these dishes?"
"I traded it for fish."
Five pairs of eyes were fixed on him. Zhuang Yan was already hungry. Seeing that there were no bowls and chopsticks for him on the table, he was not annoyed. He went and got a set of bowls and chopsticks for himself, drank the fish soup first and then ate the fish.
Zhuang Yan: "Aren't you hungry? What are you standing there for? Go eat."
In the dating reality show, the seating arrangement is also a highlight. Lu Yan sat next to Zhuang Yan's right hand first, and Jiang Ning also sat next to Zhuang Yan.
The meal was awkward. Looking at the food Zhuang Yan brought back, An Xinrong's previous words seemed like a joke.
I feel embarrassed for An Xinrong.
[You were just saying you wouldn't leave any food for Zhuang Yan, but does Zhuang Yan need you to? Compared to Zhuang Yan's sauerkraut fish, Fang Chen's is like pig swill.]
[Isn't Fang Chen from a rural background? How come he can't even cook?]
Does being from a rural background automatically mean you can cook?
They seem to enjoy their food so much, I want to eat fish too.
[I noticed that An Xinrong didn't eat a single bite. She probably felt embarrassed to eat, since she'd been targeting Zhuang Yan, saying he lacked team spirit and was slacking off. But he brought back a huge pot of fish; without Zhuang Yan, the rest of them would have gone hungry all afternoon.]
The live stream was filled with viewers who were on edge, especially since Lu Yan and Jiang Ning had almost gotten into a fight because of Zhuang Yan.
[Could Jiang Yinghou please stay away from Zhuang Yan? Zhuang Yan is a divorced man, just dumped. What's so special about a man like that? I don't object to beautiful women dating, but could you please open your eyes and not just pick up any trash? Fang Chen and Ling Xuan are quite good.]
I believe Jiang Ning's feelings for Zhuang Yan are purely platonic.
[Unexpectedly, the biggest winner is Zhuang Yan, flanked by Jiang Ning and Lu Yan, one innocent and the other sexy. If I were him, I'd be ecstatic. I wonder what Xia Wan would think.]
[Jiang Ning might still like Zhuang Yan, but Lu Yan is unlikely. Didn't you hear An Xinrong say that Lu Yan is Xia Wan's aunt? Zhuang Yan almost became her nephew-in-law, how could she possibly like Zhuang Yan? Besides, Zhuang Yan offended the Xia family. I guess Lu Yan participated in this program to avenge her niece.]
[Agreed. I also tend to think that Lu Yan participated in the show to avenge her niece.]
Xia Wan stared at the sauerkraut fish on the screen. When she first met Zhuang Yan, he didn't know how to cook. He only started learning because of her.
Knowing that she liked Sichuan cuisine, he found a master chef to learn from, and the first dish he learned to cook was pickled fish.
At noon, the observers also needed to eat. Xia Wan had takeout in front of her, and Gu Qian had ordered the dishes according to her taste.
