Li Zhengbo's intrusion was just a minor incident, like a stone thrown into water; the ripples quickly disappeared, and it didn't disturb Ye Ning's normal life at all.
Recently, she has transformed into a little chef again, becoming obsessed with making various nourishing soups following the lead of food bloggers.
For the white fungus, red date, and lotus seed soup, first soak the white fungus until it expands. Lotus seeds are not easy to cook, so remove the cores and simmer them over low heat for a while.
The soup is bright in color, the white fungus is sweet, and it also has the aroma of red dates.
To make clear bird's nest soup, first soak the bird's nest in water until it expands, and then steam it for 2 hours.
After cooking, add milk and rock sugar, and it's simply perfect.
There's also sea cucumber and seaweed egg drop soup, cordyceps and old duck soup, and a different dish every day, which I enjoy immensely.
Today she's making fish maw chicken soup. The best cod maw is first steamed with scallions, ginger, and cooking wine, then paired with free-range chicken and cordyceps flowers. The soup is ginger-yellow in color and has a rich aroma.
"Jingchen, the soup is ready! Come and try it!" Ye Ning excitedly brought the casserole to the table.
Xiao Jingchen, who was tinkering with something in the tool shed, was immediately speechless.
It's not that he doesn't like drinking the soup made by Ye Ning, it's just that he's getting a little tired of drinking it every day.
Just then, Ye Ning's scream came from outside. Xiao Jingchen's expression changed, and he rushed into the restaurant.
"Ye Ning, what's wrong?"
Ye Ning remained quite calm, rinsing her hands at the tap. "Jing Chen, I'm fine, I just burned my hand."
"How can you say it's nothing if you burned your hand! Come here! Let me see!" Xiao Jingchen carefully held Ye Ning's injured hand, and saw that the thumb was already a little red.
"It's alright, Jingchen, I'll just put some medicine on it!" Although it was a clay pot that had just been taken off the stove, it was only a minor scratch and not too serious.
"Don't move, I'll go get the medicine!" Xiao Jingchen was extremely distressed. He took out the spare medicine box from the room and carefully applied the medicine to Ye Ning.
"Does it hurt? I'll be gentle." Xiao Jingchen carefully applied the medicine to Ye Ning, his handsome profile full of seriousness.
"All done!" After bandaging it up, he blew on it, just like when he was a child.
"Alright, Jingchen, look, I'm fine now."
Xiao Jingchen suddenly became serious. "Ye Ning, I don't object to you cooking, but you absolutely mustn't burn your hands."
"Why?" Isn't it normal to burn your hand while cooking?
"Because it will hurt me!" Xiao Jingchen looked directly into Ye Ning's eyes and said seriously.
"Okay! I understand!" Ye Ning suddenly felt her face getting hot. Was it shyness? Or was it gratitude?
"Alright! Have some soup! Try it and see how it is. I simmered it for over an hour!" Ye Ning pulled Xiao Jingchen to sit at the table, scooped out a spoonful of soup, carefully blew on it, and then brought it to Xiao Jingchen's lips.
"Delicious!" Ye Ning's hair fell like seaweed onto his arm, and he felt a tingling sensation.
"Really? That's great!" Ye Ning, the genius little chef, happily sat back down in her seat and began to enjoy her soup.
"Jingchen, isn't it a little too salty?" Ye Ning frowned.
"No! It's just right!" Xiao Jingchen quickly chimed in.
"Ye Ning, you can actually have Wang Ma do these things!" Xiao Jingchen said while drinking soup.
"I know!" Ye Ning said, continuing to watch videos while sipping her soup. "I just had nothing else to do!"
She really admires these bloggers; they still have the energy to do live streams in the current situation.
One blogger even encountered other people breaking down doors and stealing supplies while filming a video. His first reaction was not to run for his life or block the door, but to post the video immediately.
It can be said that the spirit of "entertainment to the death" has been taken to the extreme.
However, this also confirms that the current external environment is so harsh that evil people are now openly breaking down doors and looting supplies.
"Jingchen, don't you think my complexion has improved a lot since I started making nourishing soups?" Ye Ning looked at Xiao Jingchen with bright eyes, her face full of anticipation.
She used to spend a lot of time every day on skincare, including cleansing, face masks, regular maintenance, and expensive custom-made skincare products.
Recently, she only did a simple cleansing and basic moisturizing, but her skin is much better than before, which must be due to the nourishing soup.
"You look great, isn't that because I gave you supplements?" Xiao Jingchen suddenly grinned mischievously.
"Ugh!" Ye Ning lowered her head shyly. "Jing Chen, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Dinner couldn't just be soup, so Ye Ning took out a plate of stir-fried asparagus, a plate of pan-fried tofu, a plate of braised beef, and freshly steamed fragrant rice from her space.
A perfect balance of meat and vegetables!
After dinner, Ye Ning sat on the sofa watching TV, while Xiao Jingchen mysteriously returned to his room.
Half an hour later, Xiao Jingchen finally arrived.
"Jingchen, where did you go?" Ye Ning asked curiously.
Seeing Xiao Jingchen's flushed face, Ye Ning quickly touched his forehead. Thankfully, he didn't have a fever!
"Ye Ning, I think I've been drinking too much nourishing soup lately, and I feel a bit hot and bothered." Xiao Jingchen sat down next to Ye Ning and kept rubbing his chin against her face.
"Really! Then how about I make some herbal tea for you tomorrow to cool you down?" Ye Ning didn't understand his implied meaning and instead started searching for herbal tea recipes on the search engine.
"No need for all that trouble. I think there are other methods that might be more effective. Ye Ning, would you like to try them?"
Xiao Jingchen's voice suddenly became deep and hoarse, with an indescribable sexiness and charm.
"What!" Before Ye Ning could react, Xiao Jingchen had already reached out and picked her up from the sofa.
Ye Ning suddenly lost her balance and quickly wrapped her arms around Xiao Jingchen's neck.
"Jingchen, no!" Ye Ning finally realized what was happening and shyly shrank back into Xiao Jingchen's neck.
"It's too late to say no now!" Xiao Jingchen said forcefully.
Xiao Jingchen carried Ye Ning back to the room, where a pink rose arrangement in the shape of a heart had appeared on the bed, and heart-shaped candles were lit on the windowsill.
So Jingchen just left to arrange all this!
Last night, the rain was sparse and the wind was strong, and I couldn't sleep because of the lingering effects of the
Another enchanting room.
