In the end, Cheng Qicai went into the kitchen to get busy. She started by preparing the pig's heart, which takes a long time to braise.
As she was dealing with it, she felt a shadow fall in front of her.
Cheng Qicai turned around and looked at Gu Rongqi, wondering why he had come in again.
"What's wrong?"
"What I meant was that I'm not hungry today, so you don't need to cook as much as last time."
"Really?" Cheng Qicai asked skeptically.
He ate it all last time.
Gu Rong nodded. "Yeah, I was just a little hungry last time, and your cooking was really delicious, so I ate a bit more."
Hearing this, Cheng Qicai was quite happy. "Okay, then I'll make less later."
She continued processing the pig's heart in her hands, red blood flowing down her fingers...
Gu Rongqi didn't move.
Cheng Qicai glanced at him.
Gu Rongqi still didn't move.
Gu Rongqi only came out of the kitchen when Cheng Qicai looked at him again.
Cheng Qicai finished preparing the dishes and then came out as well.
She sat down on the sofa and saw that Gu Rongqi was watching...a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law drama.
She watched for a while, and in the TV series, the wicked mother-in-law was slapping her daughter-in-law across the face. The reason for the slapping was that the daughter-in-law gave her milk at the wrong temperature, which the mother-in-law was unhappy with...
Looking at Gu Rongqi's serious and focused expression, she found it difficult to judge.
Finally, she couldn't help but ask, "You like watching this kind of thing?"
Gu Rongqi shook his head.
? ? ?
Cheng Qicai couldn't understand it at all; if she didn't like it, why had she watched it for so long?
After watching for a while, Cheng Qicai's eyes hurt. She suddenly remembered that her clothes hadn't been washed and dried yet, so she got up to hang them out to dry. Then she went to the closet to take out a clean set of blankets to change into.
After a busy morning, Cheng Qicai went to the kitchen to check on the progress of the braised pig's heart.
Seeing that the braising liquid was almost ready, she turned down the heat.
By the time she finished cooking the other dishes, the pig's heart was almost done. She took the finished dish out.
After the two finished eating, Cheng Qicai cleared away the dishes.
Gu Rongqi sat outside for a while, watching Cheng Qicai come out after washing the dishes.
He pushed her water glass towards her, saying, "Thank you for your hard work today."
The water that had been drunk out was now filled with half a cup of water.
“It’s okay,” Cheng Qicai said, taking a sip. “I was going to eat by myself anyway, so cooking for one more person is fine.”
Gu Rongqi didn't stay at her house for long before saying goodbye and going home.
Cheng Qicai breathed a sigh of relief as she watched Gu Rongqi leave.
It wasn't that she didn't welcome him, but rather that such an embarrassing thing had happened yesterday, making her feel a little awkward seeing him.
Once Gu Rongqi's design was complete, Cheng Qicai took it to Su Changyun's studio the next day and showed them the design.
With his design drawings in hand, things became much easier. The group discussed the design drawings and made some minor modifications.
Once the shop design is finalized and the machines are ready to be manufactured, all that's left is to decorate the shop.
She spent some time preparing all the necessary permits and documents for opening the shop.
Cheng Qicai found a renovation team recommended by Su Changyun, and now her daily work involves checking on the progress of the shop's renovation.
Lu Qi gave her a fairly large shop, but she paid the renovation team enough money, and they gave her a two-month timeframe to complete the project.
It's July now, so the earliest they can open is September.
She originally wanted to open the business in early August, when students would still have a month before starting school.
However, it seems impossible to make it in time now. We can only hope that it can be opened before the Mid-Autumn Festival in September.
During the renovation period, although she didn't do any heavy work, she still felt extremely tired.
Sometimes Gu Rongqi would come with her to visit. She had told Gu Rongqi before that she wanted to go out and have some fun for a while, but now she's so busy that she doesn't even dare to think about it anymore.
