Gu Momo turned to look at Aunt Qin, who was smiling like an aunt, and naturally understood what Li Zhanting meant. "Okay, I'll make it for you!"
Gu Momo was taken to the kitchen by Aunt Qin, who also carefully reminded her of some vegetables and seasonings that Li Zhanting could not eat.
He can eat spicy food, but he rarely does. His favorite flavor is Sichuan peppercorn.
As for the dishes that Li Zhanting doesn't like to eat, they simply won't appear in the menu of Huahaiyuan.
"Madam, please continue with your work. I won't bother you any longer." Aunt Qin understood that Master Ting wanted to eat the dishes cooked by his wife, so she didn't offer to help.
Half an hour later, Gu Momo came out of the kitchen carrying a bowl of sticky millet porridge and several oddly wrapped thumb-sized bags.
Li Zhanting looked at the food in front of him with a troubled expression, and took a bite with embarrassment. The salty and spicy meat filling wrapped in his thumb almost made him die.
Nevertheless, he swallowed it with a furrowed brow.
I wanted to use millet porridge to mask this indescribable taste, but as soon as I put it in my mouth, a burnt taste spread throughout my mouth.
Gu Momo lowered her head and smiled faintly, then deliberately looked at Li Zhanting with an expectant expression, "How is it? Is it delicious?"
Li Zhanting remained silent; he would dedicate his life to healing from those two bites of food.
"Is it really that bad?" Gu Momo asked, pretending to try it when he didn't answer.
"Wait." Li Zhanting frowned and blocked her hand, put the few thumb-sized packets and a bowl of porridge back on the plate, and carried them into the kitchen.
Gu Momo watched his retreating figure and covered her mouth with a laugh.
When she was mixing the filling, she added at least three spoonfuls of salt and three spoonfuls of Sichuan peppercorns. She also deliberately didn't stir the millet porridge, letting it stick to the bottom. Every grain of rice had a burnt smell, so almost none of the dishes here were up to her usual standard.
She was a natural cook, but over the years, Gu Momo rarely wasted time on cooking.
It's not that she looks down on cooking, but rather that she could use that time to handle other more important things.
Besides, she wasn't planning to be a housewife for Li Zhanting, so why would she deliberately cook such good food?
Li Zhanting busied himself in the kitchen for a while before finally coming out with a plate of delicate pan-fried steak and a plate of tomato spaghetti.
He doesn't particularly like Chinese food, but he's exceptionally good at Western food.
Whether it's steak, pasta, or various appetizers, the presentation is exquisite, even more refined than that of French restaurants.
He placed the pasta in front of Gu Momo. The pasta, cooked to the perfect firmness, was served with a special tomato sauce and garnished with basil leaves. At least in terms of appearance, it was already a perfect score.
"Try it." Li Zhanting held the knife and fork with his long, slender fingers, elegantly cutting the steak. When he said this, he didn't look up at her, but his tone was exceptionally doting.
Gu Momo hesitated for a few seconds, stirred the pasta in front of her, picked up a few strands with her fork, and put them in her mouth.
The pasta is coated in a rich tomato sauce, with the aroma of basil leaves, resulting in a flavorful yet not greasy taste.
Li Zhanting's cooking skills are even better than before!
"How was it?" Li Zhanting asked softly, his voice gentle, like a child waiting for her approval.
Before Gu Momo could even swallow the food in her mouth, her head was already nodding repeatedly in response: "Amazing, amazing..."
There was no way around it; Li Zhanting's pasta was just too delicious.
She thought her cooking skills were pretty good, but Li Zhanting was actually on par with her. She usually specializes in spicy Sichuan cuisine and rarely cooks, so it seems that the two of them are quite complementary.
"Eat more if you like it. I can make it for you every day from now on." As if reading her mind, Li Zhanting took out a tissue and gently wiped the smear of tomato sauce from the corner of her mouth.
Gu Momo looked up and met his gentle eyes.
His eyes were deep-set, with his pupils and the whites of his eyes perfectly proportioned, and he had a slight smile when he looked at her.
Gu Momo was stunned for a few seconds, and when she realized what was happening, she almost choked to death.
"Cough cough cough..." She coughed painfully.
Li Zhanting quickly handed him a glass of water, saying, "Eat slowly, there will be water every day from now on."
She took the water and gulped down several mouthfuls, and it took her a while to recover.
"How are you? Are you still feeling unwell? Should we call the family doctor to come and take a look?" Li Zhanting frowned, clearly very worried.
Gu Momo's face flushed red, and she coughed lightly while waving her hand, "It's nothing, it's nothing, just a minor problem."
"Li Zhanting, are you sure you just said Tiantian?"
Li Zhanting has plenty of career and ability, why would he spend all his time in the kitchen trying to please his wife?!
But then they saw Li Zhanting slowly and methodically cutting his steak with a knife and fork, his sharp eyebrows slightly raised, every gesture exuding nobility and elegance:
"I, Li Zhanting, can dominate the world outside, and I can certainly manage the world for Momo at home as well."
In other words, he wanted to control both the outside world and Momo's happiness.
Gu Momo looked up in slight shock, only to be met with Li Zhanting's deep, playful, and all-encompassing eyes.
His gaze was so gentle, yet it seemed to convey to Gu Momo with his confidence—
He, Li Zhanting, can not only give Gu Momo the world, but also the warmest family.
No one can stop Li Zhanting from getting what he wants.
Moreover, he is fully capable of doing it.
That detached confidence and arrogance inexplicably stirred a sense of admiration in Gu Momo's heart.
Gu Momo likes people who are ambitious and far-sighted!
