"Here, please have some tea." After a while, Zhu Qixiong brought hot water and placed it in front of Shen Ning.
"Thanks."
"Ningning, today is the Little New Year. Shall I make you some mutton hotpot?" The man stood in front of the sofa, his hands in his pockets, smiling.
"You can cook?" Shen Ning looked at him in amazement.
Zhu Dashao, a typical rich second-generation playboy, can actually cook?
"Hey, what are you looking at? How come I can't cook? It's not a good idea to judge people by their appearance." Zhu Qixiong gave him a look of contempt and dissatisfaction.
Shen Ning laughed:
"Well, I'm indeed a little hungry, and I'd like to see your cooking skills."
“OK.”
Zhu Qixiong snapped his fingers and walked towards the kitchen with a twist of his waist.
Shen Ning looked at his tall and graceful figure, exuding the aura of a young man from a wealthy family, and the well-ironed suit made him look like a gentleman.
Only a playboy like him could wear a suit with such an aura.
Shen Ning had gotten to know Zhu Qixiong a little during this period. In the eyes of outsiders, he was a playful and unrestrained person who frequented brothels. However, through the contact during this period, Shen Ning felt that he was somewhat different.
He is not completely a playboy. He has some depth and grace, and he is not that rogue. He is the kind of person who is romantic but not vulgar.
"Oh, you can cook too, and you seem very skilled at it. Do you cook often?" In the kitchen, Shen Ning stood by and watched Zhu Qixiong chopping vegetables and mixing seasonings skillfully. She was very surprised. He could not only cook Chinese dishes, but also Western dishes. This was not something that could be mastered in a day or two.
"You think I'm a pig who only knows how to eat. Let me tell you, I have been able to cook since I was very young, and I'm as good as you." He looked proud and complacent.
Shen Ning looked at him in surprise: "Would your mother be willing to let you cook for yourself at such a young age?"
Although the Zhu family is not as powerful as the Jing family in the imperial capital, it is definitely among the top three.
Despite living in such a favorable environment, the eldest son of the Zhu family had to cook at a very young age. No one would believe it if you told others.
"My mother died when I was very young." Zhu Qixiong paused and suddenly said without any expression on his face.
Shen Ning was stunned, and then apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned it."
"It's okay, I don't care." Zhu Qixiong shook his head and continued to mix the pasta.
Shen Ning didn't say anything else.
After a while, she went to the bathroom and looked up relevant information on her mobile phone.
It turns out that Zhu Qixiong's mother died when Zhu Qixiong was three years old. Now Zhu Qixiong's father Zhu Guangtao's wife is his second wife. She gave birth to four children for Zhu Guangtao. Although Zhu Qixiong is the eldest son of the Zhu family, he has never been favored because of his stepmother's influence.
Now he only holds a small portion of the Zhu family's company shares and has no real power. Everything is managed by his second brother Zhu Qifa. In the future, the family property allocated to him will not be much, and naturally he will not be in charge of the family company.
Shen Ning thought that the reason why he behaved so recklessly outside was probably related to his experience and the cruel reality.
Therefore, in life, everyone has his or her own destiny of happiness. Sadness and pain are tailor-made for you by God when you are born. Only by having good thoughts in your heart can you get peace of mind and blessings.
At this moment, she felt a sense of sympathy for Zhu Qixiong, a man in the same boat, and the distance between them in her heart was shortened a lot.
Although she had a mother since childhood, she never received fatherly love. Zhu Qixiong seemed to be even worse off than her. His mother died when he was three years old, and his biological father was useless to him.
