Chapter 224 Finding a scapegoat



Her gaze swept over Leng Yue, who was staring intently at the plate, and she recalled what Lin Yinuo had told her earlier.

A strange thought suddenly came to mind, and with a smile on her face, she said, "Xiao Leng, sit down and eat with me. There's so much food, how can I possibly finish it all?"

Upon hearing her own name, Leng Yue, a seasoned foodie, subconsciously swallowed.

Her gaze swept quickly over Mu Shaohua, Su Qingyao, and the others, and she hesitated.

Just as she was about to politely decline, Zhang Ruoshui pushed the plate in front of her.

Seeing the tempting food, Leng Yue couldn't care less about Su Qingyao, Mu Shaohua, and Lin Yinuo at this moment.

She picked up her chopsticks and gave Zhang Ruoshui a shy smile: "Then I'll eat with Auntie first, hehe."

While eating, he thought, "Whatever you think, with such delicious food before me, I'll eat first."

Zhang Ruoshui smiled, and the two of them started eating.

Su Qingyao and Mu Shaohua exchanged a glance, shook their heads slightly, and smiled. They both thought to themselves, "No wonder she's a foodie. She can't care about anything else when it comes to food."

The two didn't linger any longer and turned to Lu Qingzhou's side, one helping to brush on the oil and the other responsible for sprinkling the seasonings.

Lin Yinuo glanced at Leng Yue, who was enjoying her meal, and thought to herself, "This girl is good, all she knows is eating. It seems like I can't count on her to be of any help for the time being."

Su Qingyao and Mu Shaohua looked like Lu Qingzhou's two protectors.

She couldn't get involved, even though she was standing on either side of Lu Qingzhou.

He simply stood aside and watched Lu Qingzhou grill the food intently.

She stared intently at Lu Qingzhou's focused expression, her smile growing wider.

Lu Qingzhou, I'll get you completely sooner or later.

While assisting Lu Qingzhou, Su Qingyao would occasionally glance sideways at the annoying Lin Yinuo, her eyes full of hostility.

Mu Shaohua remained as considerate as ever, assisting Lu Qingzhou while gently wiping the sweat from his forehead, perfectly embodying the image of a virtuous wife and loving mother.

Seeing that Lu Qingzhou was wiping more and more sweat from his forehead, she couldn't help but say softly with concern, "Honey, you're covered in sweat. Why don't you rest for a while? It breaks my heart to see you like this."

At this moment, she launched a perfectly timed and gentle offensive.

Lu Qingzhou was deeply moved as he looked at Mu Shaohua carefully wiping his sweat, and couldn't help but kiss her luscious red lips.

Mu Shaohua felt a sweet warmth in her heart. Looking at Su Qingyao and Lin Yinuo, who were still secretly competing, she smiled slightly and thought to herself, "No matter how much you two fight, my husband Lu still loves me the most..."

While helping Lu Qingzhou with his chores, the women also followed suit and grilled some food themselves.

As for how it tastes, only they themselves know.

However, at this moment, they were more concerned about their performance in front of Lu Qingzhou and the subtle competition between them.

"Honey, try these chicken wings I grilled. I used my own secret seasoning. How do you like them?"

With stars twinkling in her eyes, Su Qingyao handed the chicken wings she had personally grilled to Lu Qingzhou with great anticipation.

Lu Qingzhou looked at the slightly charred chicken wings in front of him, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly involuntarily.

My heart skipped a beat, and an ominous premonition welled up inside me.

But seeing Su Qingyao's big, watery eyes looking at him expectantly, he gritted his teeth and took a bite.

In an instant, all sorts of strange tastes exploded in my mouth.

Holy crap, what the hell did they put on top of that?

I watched her fiddling around for ages, and this is what she came up with? It's a total culinary disaster!

It's both sweet and salty... ugh, it's a complete taste disaster!

But in order not to spoil Su Qingyao's mood, he quickly chewed a few times and forced himself to swallow the chicken wing.

Seeing Lu Qingzhou eat the chicken wing, Su Qingyao's eyes lit up, and she couldn't wait to ask, "How does it taste?"

Lu Qingzhou inwardly groaned, pondering to himself:

"No, I can't handle this 'culinary disaster' alone. I have to find someone to share it with."

So, he gave Su Qingyao a thumbs up with an exaggerated expression and praised, "Hmm, as expected of my wife Qingyao, this cooking is impeccable, one word—absolutely amazing!"

Seeing that Lu Qingzhou spoke so highly of the few dark chicken wings that Su Qingyao had grilled, Lin Yinuo and Mu Shaohua...

The two men were immediately suspicious.

Lin Yinuo was the first to pick up her chopsticks, her face full of curiosity, and said, "Is it really that delicious? Let me try it?"

Seeing this, Su Qingyao immediately reached out to stop her, like a small animal protecting its food.

She said with dissatisfaction, "This is what I baked for my husband. You are not allowed to eat it. Only my husband can eat it."

Upon hearing this, Lu Qingzhou was completely taken aback; her face twitched violently, and she almost fainted.

"That won't do. If I eat it all, I'll be poisoned!"

He quickly spoke up, determined to nip this terrible thought in the bud in the bud for Su Qingyao: "Qingyao, good things should be shared. Only by sharing can more people know about your culinary skills, right?"

Hearing Lu Qingzhou say this, Su Qingyao felt a surge of joy.

It's as sweet as honey.

She looked at Lin Yinuo with a smug expression and said, "Since my husband has said so, it wouldn't hurt to let you try it."

Lin Yinuo looked at Su Qingyao's smug expression.

Despite his disdain, he calmly picked up a chicken wing.

I looked at the so-called "secret recipe chicken wings" with a lot of suspicion.
