Chapter 14 Chapter 14 Don’t think too much. He is not rude or stupid...
Xu Qinghu walked to the sink to wash his hands. Seeing that Qi Song hadn't moved, he gestured to him to look at the stove, "The pot is hot."
Qi Song came back to his senses, glared at her fiercely, picked up the spatula and started cooking.
The kitchen was filled with smoke, and Xu Qinghu had no intention of staying with him, so he walked into the living room.
He Shengnian was sitting on a single sofa near the floor-to-ceiling window checking customer information. He nodded to Xu Qinghu when he heard the voice and continued to work on the computer.
While working, he wore a pair of silver-rimmed glasses on his nose, looking like a serious math teacher.
Xu Qinghu didn't disturb him and turned to go to the garden in front.
Qi Song said he could cook, but he became clumsy as soon as he started. Either the oil was too hot and the pot would catch fire, or he forgot to turn on the range hood, and the kitchen was filled with smoke and fog, making people cough.
He Shengnian smelled burnt food and stood up to check the situation. He saw Qi Song standing by the stove, anxiously looking for the range hood switch.
He Shengnian frowned and helped open it, "Are you okay?"
Qi Song shook his head and looked at the burnt chicken in the pot with a hint of annoyance on his face. His mind was distracted while cooking and he didn't pay attention to the heat at all. When he reacted, it was too late to save the situation.
"If you can't cook, just help me." He Shengnian took an apron from behind the door and tied it around himself. "I'll cook."
"Who said I can't?" Qi Song was still stubborn. "That was just an accident. I'm sure I can prepare the rest of the dishes."
[You can't fool me. Judging by the flustered look on her face, she doesn't cook often.]
[He Shengnian is still mature and steady, with an overflowing sense of security.]
[Don't take on a job you don't have the skills to do. Is Qi Song trying to be funny?]
Xu Qinghu heard the noise coming from outside and smelled the lingering smoke in the kitchen. He already anticipated what had happened.
She didn't pour cold water on Qi Song, but said: "It's getting late, let me cook."
Seeing her, Qi Song felt even more ashamed. The words he had said with such confidence before were like a slap in the face.
He wanted to struggle a bit, "Don't underestimate me, I was just too anxious just now, my cooking skills will definitely be fine."
He Shengnian looked at Xu Qinghu, who remained calm and said, "Sure, you can stir-fry some vegetables later."
Qi Song: "..."
"Let me do it," Xu Qinghu walked over to He Shengnian and took the pot and spatula from him. "It's our turn to cook today, so I won't bother you. Just focus on your own work first."
Her movements were so natural that by the time He Shengnian reacted, she had already started washing the pot.
He Shengnian didn't insist. He untied his apron and handed it to her, "Put this on first."
"good."
According to the nature of dating variety shows, Xu Qinghu should have lowered her head and let He Shengnian help her get dressed, and then started some kitchen flirtation. But she didn't do that. Instead, she washed her hands, took the apron and put it on, "Thank you."
He Shengnian nodded, "I'm in the living room, call me anytime if you need help."
After saying that, he strode away with his long legs.
Qi Song stood there, with a sour face, saying: "You'd better not laugh at me in your heart."
Xu Qinghu: "..."
"Is it funny?" Xu Qinghu looked at the inedible chicken in the trash can. "If you don't know how to cook, you can tell me instead of being distracted in the kitchen. Wasting food is a small matter. If a fire breaks out, the consequences will be disastrous."
"Nonsense!" Qi Zhou retorted without thinking, "I was in the kitchen, how could there be a fire?"
"It didn't happen this time," Xu Qinghu turned on the gas stove and said without turning his head, "What about next time?"
Qi Song didn't like the way she was lecturing him, and secretly gritted his teeth and said, "Are you still going to cook?"
Xu Qinghu was not angry because of his bad attitude and started cooking in an orderly manner.
Not only was she proficient in preparing dishes, she was also adept at cooking. She did not have the awkwardness that Qi Song had shown before, and appeared to be efficient and effective.
Xu Qinghu is truly a treasured girl. Her education and beauty aside, she can actually cook. I was truly astonished.
[She probably cooks at home often, otherwise she wouldn't be so good at it.]
[Even though it's only been two days, Xu Qinghu has left a deeper and deeper impression on me. I really like her.]
[What's that? It just means her family isn't well off and she has to do everything herself. Compared to Qiao Qiao, she's way behind. They're not even in the same class.]
[+1, isn't it just cooking? What's the big deal?]
[Qiao Wanshu seems more appealing.]
[Hurry up and get out of here! This is Xu Qinghu's livestream, not a place for you to compare and criticize each other! You'll die if you don't lick the rich, right?!]
By the time the meal was ready, it was getting dark.
Du Yanting and Qiao Wanshu came in from outside one after another. As soon as they opened the door, they smelled a rich fragrance.
"Is dinner ready?" Qiao Wanshu changed her shoes and walked to the dining table. Looking at the exquisitely presented dishes that were full of color, aroma and flavor, she looked at Qi Song in surprise. "I didn't expect you to be such a good cook. I don't even want to eat the fat-reducing meal tonight."
Qi Song's face changed slightly, and he began to feel suffocated again. If he had cooked this table of dishes, he would definitely be able to take credit for it to Qiao Wanshu and urge her to taste his cooking skills. However, among the several dishes, only a plate of vegetables that didn't look very tasty was fried by him.
"No," Qi Song gritted his teeth secretly, "something happened in the kitchen today. The dish was cooked by Xu Qinghu."
Qiao Wanshu's eyes changed slightly. She didn't expect Xu Qinghu's cooking skills to be so good.
She thought that Xu Qinghu was so beautiful that she would be a little spoiled.
"That's amazing," Qiao Wanshu praised subconsciously after a brief pause, "It's much better than me. I can barely cook."
As soon as these words came out, fans immediately began to comfort her.
[Qiao Qiao is the eldest daughter, so she definitely doesn’t have to cook.]
[+1, Qiao Qiao was born to enjoy life, and the greatest hardship she's ever endured was probably participating in a dating variety show.]
[Besides, Qiao Qiao's strengths aren't in the kitchen. She works in the family business, and all she needs to do is sit back and wait for the dividends. Others can't envy her.]
[People from different classes have different experiences with life, so there's no need to belittle yourself.]
Hundreds of comments like this floated out from the live broadcast room, vividly reflecting the likes and dislikes of human nature.
Although Xu Qinghu had no communication with Qiao Wanshu and even cooked a table full of dishes, most people sympathized with Qiao Wanshu.
Her class, her cool and elegant temperament, and her occasional expressions of loss all attracted people to her.
Is this the halo of the heroine?
Perhaps even if she is not the heroine, as long as she comes from a wealthy family and has a good academic background, she will become the object of everyone's pursuit.
"It's just a meal," Qi Song said nonchalantly, "Why would you do it when we have a chef at home?"
Qiao Wanshu smiled faintly, "Then I won't eat the fat-reducing meal tonight."
While Xu Qinghu was washing his hands, a man's smiling voice suddenly came from behind him: "If you don't want to be an artist, you can open your own restaurant. Business will definitely be very good."
Xu Qinghu raised his head and met Du Yanting's deep and charming eyes.
She wiped her hands with a tissue and said, "I don't want to open a restaurant."
"Why?" Du Yanting stared at her with interest. He was wearing a custom-made suit and his hair was combed back, looking handsome and casual.
"Too tired."
Du Yanting chuckled, "That's right, you are so beautiful, being an artist is more suitable for you."
Although he spoke with a smile, his attitude towards Xu Qinghu was contemptuous and scrutinizing of a superior.
It seems that Xu Qinghu gave up other jobs and entered the entertainment industry because he couldn't stand hardship.
"Boss Du, in your work and interpersonal relationships, you should be the leader who gives advice and suggestions, right?"
"What's wrong?" Du Yanting raised his lips, "I do make decisions more often."
"Has anyone told you that it's stupid and rude to maliciously speculate on other people's thoughts?" Xu Qinghu looked into his eyes quietly, his tone neither hurried nor slow, mixed with aggression.
The smile on Du Yanting's face gradually disappeared. He looked at Xu Qinghu in surprise. He didn't expect her to suddenly attack him.
But he quickly reacted, "I just think you're very suitable to be an artist. I don't mean to speculate about you. Don't think too much about it."
Xu Qinghu nodded. "Boss Du is so handsome. It would be a waste of his talent to work in an office. It would be more suitable for him to work in a nightclub. I didn't mean to speculate on your intentions. Don't think too much."
After saying that, she didn't even look at Du Yanting, and walked straight past him with the bowl of yogurt.
Du Yanting: “…”
A look of helplessness flashed across his eyes, and he explained to the camera with a mixture of laughter and tears: "She misunderstood me too deeply. I'm not an impolite fool."
In addition to "hahahaha", there are also many complaints in the barrage.
Xu Qinghu is being too sensitive. She was planning to enter the entertainment industry anyway, and Du Yanting wasn't wrong. Why did she let Du Yanting work in a nightclub?
[I don't understand the above. There's nothing wrong with simply saying Xu Qinghu is good-looking, but he puts being a chef and being an artist together. Isn't that just implying that Xu Qinghu is lazy, greedy, and vain? I don't believe he was unconscious.]
[It's just a sentence. Xu Qinghu is being so fussy. It's really unreasonable.]
[You think it's unreasonable because you're not involved. No matter how powerful Du Yanting's background is, he can't disrespect Xu Qinghu.]
[+1, I felt Du Yanting disrespected Xu Qinghu the first day we met. He kept bringing up Qiao Wanshu. If he liked Qiao Wanshu, wouldn't he just pursue her himself?]
Soon, everyone else returned to the cabin. After praising the dishes on the table, they began to eat.
After dinner, Xu Qinghu left the dirty kitchen to Qi Song and sat on the sofa to rest.
Even if Qi Song was not convinced, he didn't have the face to ask her to help.
"The dishes you cook are delicious," You Zhi sat down next to Xu Qinghu and said softly, "I can cook too. I can make whatever you like."
He lowered his eyes and looked at Xu Qinghu, as if he had taken a lot of courage to say this, with the corners of his mouth slightly pursed, appearing very shy.
"I don't have any favorite dishes," Xu Qinghu leaned back on the sofa and asked him, "Did you go to see the flower pots today?"
You Zhi nodded, "The seeds haven't sprouted yet."
"I've seen it too," Xu Qinghu said, his lips curled slightly, "It should sprout in a few days."
