Before Lu Ci could say anything more, Zhong Yunyue noticed her intention and immediately spoke up, "I only know how to cook a few very simple dishes, such as hot and sour shredded potatoes, scrambled eggs with tomatoes..." Zhong Yunyue stopped there, unable to recall any other dishes he could cook.
Everyone waited for his follow-up, but nothing came of it.
So, all that actor Zhong knows how to cook is... these two dishes?
“So today Mr. Xiao and I will cook, tomorrow Yu Shan and Gu Yewei will cook, and the day after tomorrow…” Lu Wanzheng thought for a moment. If she helped Zhong Yunyue cook, she would easily be criticized by haters who would say she was trying to gain popularity.
Xiao Qifeng knew Lu Wanzheng's predicament, so he said to her, "The day after tomorrow, the three of us men will cook, and you can just eat."
Gu Yewei thought this was a good idea and agreed, saying, "I think it's a good idea. We can even have a competition to see who makes the best-tasting dish."
Lu Wanzheng also thought this was a good idea.
Everyone chose to ignore Lu Ci's words.
Gu Yewei smiled and said, "Since Lu Wanzheng and Xiao Qifeng are cooking today, let's go out first and leave this space for them to show off their skills."
He pulled Mo Yushan out of the kitchen and towards the living room.
Zhong Yunyue nodded slightly, glanced at Lu Wanzheng, and turned to leave.
Seeing that everyone else had left, Lu Ci naturally wouldn't stay either. Besides, she was going to cook later, and the kitchen would be full of fumes. She believed that the kitchen was never a place she should be.
Lu Wanzheng shifted her feet and walked side by side with Xiao Qifeng to the refrigerator. Xiao Qifeng opened the refrigerator and asked, "What would you like to eat?"
Looking at the refrigerator full of food, Lu Wanzheng shook her head. The cake she had just eaten made her not hungry at all. Without hunger, there is no appetite, and she has no interest in anything.
"Then I'll make a few dishes you like, and then a few vegetable dishes, okay?" Xiao Qifeng asked gently, his tone completely different from when he spoke to Lu Ci earlier, like heaven and earth.
Lu Wanzheng: "Okay."
Xiao Qifeng took out the vegetables he might need from the refrigerator, and then found a bag of shrimp in the seafood section. He picked up the bag and put it in the sink.
There are two sinks in total, located on either side of the sink.
Xiao Qifeng placed a large cabbage from one sink into another empty sink. He washed the cabbage under the tap, separating the roots from the leaves one by one, and then soaked it in water.
Lu Wanzheng found a basin, poured the shrimp into it, and added water. A few shrimp jumped around a bit after being exposed to the water, but most of them stopped moving.
Shrimp taste better when cooked with live shrimp.
She was in charge of cleaning the shrimp.
Xiao Qifeng, who was standing nearby, took the cabbage out of the water, drained it, and placed it on the cutting board. "Let's make a big vegetable paste. I just saw some white pepper on the counter, which can add some flavor."
"good."
Xiao Qifeng started chopping vegetables. His hands were very beautiful, with fair skin, distinct knuckles, and long, slender fingers. He held a cleaver in one hand and pressed down on a large cabbage with the other, chopping with great skill.
He slashed quickly and accurately, and with a "thump thump thump" sound, the cabbage was cut into thin strips, with the white part cut to almost the same length.
Lu Wanzheng turned her head and saw this scene. She thought it was beautiful, like a painting, and everything was in harmony.
"Is it pretty?" Xiao Qifeng's lips curled up; he had long felt the intense gaze Lu Wanzheng was giving him.
His voice rang out from the kitchen, and Lu Wanzheng came back to her senses, "He looks handsome. Mr. Xiao is handsome no matter what he does."
[Ah! Ah! Xiao Qifeng is so doting! His tone is amazing, I love it!]
Lu Wanzheng's sycophantic behavior is disgusting.
Is this an attempt to cultivate a "love-struck" persona with her sugar daddy? But is anyone really going to believe it?
[Huh? What the heck? Is this just a show?]
After chopping the vegetables, Xiao Qifeng turned on the stove and prepared to cook.
Gradually, the aroma wafted from the pot, and it must be said, Xiao Qifeng's cooking was very fragrant.
Lu Wanzheng: "I'm going to the restroom." She had been chatting with Mo Yushan for a long time this afternoon and had drunk quite a bit of water.
"Go on, no rush, I can manage on my own." Xiao Qifeng didn't stop what he was doing and continued to stir-fry the vegetables in the pot.
Upon hearing this, Lu Wanzheng put down what she was holding, took a tissue, wiped her hands, and left the restaurant.
She headed towards the bathroom. When she first arrived at the cabin, Mo Yushan had come out of the toilet, so she knew exactly where it was.
After using the restroom, just as she was about to come out, she heard voices coming from the doorway.
"Why are you all so friendly to Lu Wanzheng? Don't you know what she's like? She seduced the director of the film crew, got pregnant out of wedlock, and then got slapped in the face by the wife. Shouldn't you stay away from someone like her? Especially the men in the cabin, you should go and remind your boyfriend not to talk to Lu Wanzheng." A very condescending voice said.
Upon hearing this, Lu Wanzheng clearly sensed that the voice was right at the door. Her hand, which was gripping the handle, froze. She couldn't go out now; she hadn't intentionally eavesdropped on their conversation.
Mo Yushan, who was also standing at the door, was very angry. She frowned and thought that Lu Ci had been slandering her idol in front of her since she arrived. How could she tolerate this?
"Ms. Lu, if you don't know her, don't make comments. How do you know that what's said online is true? Have you understood the background of this smear campaign?"
If you don't understand, please don't speak carelessly. If you don't understand her, you have no right to like her, much less the right to judge or slander her.
She became increasingly angry as she spoke, and from the moment Lu Ci arrived, she was filled with dislike for Lu Wanzheng.
And when she's in the kitchen, if she doesn't know how to cook, she just says it's a servant's job. Does she think she's a person just because she's a young lady? Aren't other people people too?
"So you know Lu Wanzheng? How do you know that what's said online is all false?"
"Flies don't land on eggs without cracks. If she hadn't done such a thing, who would slander her for no reason?" Lu Ci started to act unreasonably.
The number of comments increased instantly:
Lu Ci is right; flies don't land on eggs without cracks.
[Has Lu Wanzheng, that scheming bitch, brainwashed Mo Yushan? She's completely fooled the young girl; her tactics are so sophisticated!]
[Mo Yushan is too naive. Don't be fooled by Lu Wanzheng. She's a bad woman, a wicked woman with impure intentions!]
[Lu Wanzheng is too shrewd. Of everyone in the small house, only Lu Ci is clear-headed and has seen through Lu Wanzheng's true colors.]
[Can Lu Ci, this arrogant and conceited young lady, really judge people accurately? Before judging others, she should first learn how to be a decent human being.]
