Chapter 40: A World for Two
In the evening, when Wen Shuzhou returned home, Wen Qingzhou and Ran Yu had already gone out to enjoy their own world.
The only diners at Wen Miao's table today were Wen Shuzhou.
"What do you want to eat?" Wen Miao asked Wen Shuzhou.
"Me?" Wen Shuzhou, who was sitting on the sofa, pointed at himself with a confused look.
"Yeah." Wen Miao nodded lightly.
"Anything lighter is fine. I'm not picky about food." Wen Shuzhou said with a chuckle.
"Okay, then I'll prepare it myself." Wen Miao instantly decided on the recipe in his mind.
"Well, I'll help."
"good."
…In the kitchen, under Wen Miao’s orderly instruction, Wen Shuzhou washed the ingredients one by one and placed them on the stove.
"Can you cut vegetables?" Wen Miao, who was marinating meat, asked suddenly.
"...Yes." Wen Shuzhou hesitated for a moment and then responded.
"If you can, help cut the vegetables. Start by cutting the bamboo shoots into shreds." After hearing Wen Shuzhou say that this job could be done, Wen Miao immediately told him what he was supposed to do next.
"good."
Wen Shuzhou took the knife from the knife rack, weighed it in his hand, and fell on the bamboo shoots on the chopping board.
With a "bang", the bamboo shoot was split into two halves.
"You don't know how to cut vegetables?" Wen Miao was surprised. Just now, he saw Wen Shuzhou was full of confidence and didn't refuse. He thought he could do it. Now it seems that he overestimated Wen Shuzhou.
“No, but I can learn.”
Born as the eldest son of his father's family, Wen Shuzhou, the eldest son of the Wen family, was trained as the successor since he was a child. Although he suffered a lot for the family, Wen Shuzhou was well taken care of in terms of food, clothing and daily necessities. He had never done these chores, but since Wen Miao asked him, it meant that he trusted him, so he bit the bullet and did it.
"Can you learn it?" Wen Miao asked doubtfully.
"Sure, I'm actually quite smart, I can definitely learn how to cut vegetables!" Wen Shuzhou promoted himself in a high-profile manner.
"...Yeah, then I'll teach you!" Wen Miao thought for a moment and said with a curled mouth.
"Yeah." Wen Shuzhou let go of the knife in his hand.
"Practice makes perfect when cutting vegetables. If you cut more, your knife skills will naturally improve. Just watch carefully..." Wen Miao taught Wen Shuzhou step by step.
"good."
...I have to say that Wen Shuzhou's understanding is very good. After a few minutes, Wen Shuzhou has started to get the hang of it. Although he cuts slowly, the result is still good.
"This child is teachable." Wen Miao said with a smile.
"Really?" Wen Shuzhou said with a long smile on his lips.
...In order to avoid the crowds and reporters, Wen Qingzhou and Ran Yu deliberately walked to places with less traffic. Also, because both of them were sitting in a not-so-high-end car and looking outside from the car windows, they did not attract any attention at all.
Just like that, the two of them openly showed their affection for almost the entire day along most of the city.
"This feeling is so good." Wen Qingzhou hugged Ran Yu and kissed her.
"Qingzhou, it's you!" Ran Yu responded with enjoyment.
Hey, lovers, after being apart for so long, it really is like a new marriage! Look at the way they are whispering to each other, if a single person sees this, they will definitely blush and their heart will beat fast!
"What's wrong with me? You've been filming in the mountains for several months, and the cell phone signal has been intermittent. Have you ever considered my feelings? I'm just making up for the previous money. Come to think of it, I haven't asked you for interest yet!" Wen Qingzhou hugged Ran Yu and said angrily.
