"Okay, let's try Secretary Chen's cooking."
Chu Tianche readily agreed, with a faint smile on his lips, which diluted the seriousness between his brows and made the atmosphere in the whole room relaxed.
The sound of pots and pans colliding could be heard from the kitchen, followed by the hum of the range hood.
Chu Tianche sat on the sofa, his eyes fixed on the ice cubes casually discarded on the coffee table, his brows slightly furrowed. He stood up and walked to the kitchen door, looking at Chen Xiaoru's busy back, hesitated for a moment, and then walked in.
"Do you need help?"
Chu Tianche's voice was particularly clear in the not-so-big kitchen.
Chen Xiaoru was so frightened that the spatula in her hand almost flew out, and the noodles in the pot also shook violently.
"Ah... Mr. Chu, it's really not necessary, it's really not necessary. Please go sit in the living room, I'll be there soon!" She was very flustered, her eyes wandering around, and she didn't dare to look into Chu Tianche's eyes.
Chu Tianche did not leave, but walked to her side, his eyes fell on her red and swollen face, with a hint of subtle concern in his tone:
"Let me do it, you go and take a rest."
Chen Xiaoru was about to refuse, but Chu Tianche had already taken the spatula from her and was expertly flipping the noodles in the pot. He exuded a faint scent of cologne, mixed with the fumes from the kitchen, forming a strange blend that made Chen Xiaoru feel a little dazed.
"Boss Chu, you... you can cook?"
Chen Xiaoru asked in surprise, with a hint of disbelief in her tone. In her impression, a domineering CEO like Chu Tianche should be a man who never touches the water.
Chu Tianche smiled, his tone relaxed and casual: "I know a little."
He put the noodles into a bowl, took out two eggs from the refrigerator, skillfully fried them into poached eggs, and placed them on the noodles.
"Okay, try it."
Chen Xiaoru stared at the steaming bowl of noodles in front of her, feeling a mixture of emotions. She thought: Is the food made by this overbearing CEO edible?
Even though she had doubts in her heart, she picked up the chopsticks, picked up a handful of noodles and stuffed it into her mouth. What can she say, the noodles cooked by this domineering boss tasted quite good!
"How is it?" Chu Tianche looked at her with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
"It's delicious." Chen Xiaoru praised sincerely with a genuine smile on her face. This smile diluted the redness and swelling on her face, making her look more radiant and charming.
The two of them sat facing each other across a small dining table, slurping their noodles.
If the gossipers at the company saw this scene, their eyes would drop out of their wits! For a moment, the only sound in the room was the sound of "slurp, slurp." The atmosphere... couldn't be described as warm, but more like a strange... harmony?
