Chapter 31 Can't afford to support her?



"It's okay, I'm not afraid of the heat, let me go. Anyway, I have nothing to do at home." It would be scary for her to be alone in such a big villa. It's better to go out for a walk with Aunt Liu.

"Well... okay then."

In the end, Aunt Liu agreed and took Su Miao to the vegetable market in Jinlin Bay District to pick out a lot of fresh ingredients and fruits. Then the two of them carried the bags back to the villa.

Aunt Liu went to the kitchen to cook, and Su Miao, having nothing else to do, followed along to help.

Although she doesn't know how to cook Western food or some complicated dishes, she does know how to cook some simple home-style dishes, and she helps Liu Ma with the cooking.

Su Miao took the opportunity to show off her skills, making a tomato and egg stir-fry that looked pretty good.

So when Huo Yanting returned to the villa at 6:30, he saw Su Miao just taking off her apron and carrying it out of the kitchen.

Seeing him return, perhaps because she hadn't had time to wipe the smile off her face, she gave him a sweet smile and said in a soft voice, "You're back? The food is ready, you can wash your hands and eat now."

After saying that, she happily turned back to the kitchen and came out with Aunt Liu carrying the other dishes.

Huo Yanting raised his thick eyebrows, looking at Su Miao's small face, which wasn't particularly stunning but was very pleasing to the eye, with a bright smile, beautiful and charming.

He took off his suit jacket and draped it over the back of the sofa, then strode toward the restaurant. On the way, he unbuttoned his cuffs, rolled up his sleeves, and revealed a section of his strong, muscular arm with long, clean, and fair fingers.

This man was not only handsome, but his hands also looked as if they had been kissed by God, exuding allure.

Huo Yanting looked at the dishes on the table. Most of them were similar to usual, except for the plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, which seemed out of place and obviously not made by Aunt Liu.

"This scrambled eggs with tomatoes was made by Madam. It tastes pretty good and will definitely go well with rice. Sir, you should try it." Aunt Liu hurriedly promoted Su Miao's dish.

Huo Yanting looked at Su Miao with some surprise, not expecting that she could actually cook.

He sat down silently, picked up his chopsticks and ate other dishes, including half a bowl of rice, but he didn't touch the plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes. Su Miao poured tomato soup over the rice and ate it with relish.

She also noticed that Huo Yanting didn't eat the dish she made, and wondered if he, like her, didn't like tomatoes.

"Why...why aren't you eating scrambled eggs with tomatoes?" Su Miao asked him, puzzled.

Faced with Su Miao's question, Huo Yanting didn't even lift his eyelids, and his chopsticks continued to move without pause, responding with silence.

Seeing that he didn't want to talk to her, Su Miao didn't want to make a fool of herself, so she simply shut her mouth and ate her food in silence.

After finishing his meal, Huo Yanting elegantly wiped his mouth before lifting his eyelids and glancing at Su Miao with a faint look. "Tomorrow, I'll have Aunt Liu take you to the mall to pick out some suitable clothes for you. You should improve your taste."

"Tomorrow?" She's going to look for a job tomorrow.

"Is there a problem?" The man asked, sounding displeased; her tone clearly indicated her displeasure.

"I'm going to look for a job tomorrow," Su Miao said honestly, looking at him.

"Find a job? Someone who didn't even graduate from college, how can you find a job?" Huo Yanting's tone was somewhat disdainful. This wasn't him trying to put Su Miao down; it was simply a fact.

These days, everyone looking for a job has a bachelor's, master's, or doctoral degree. What kind of good job can someone like her, who doesn't even have a university degree, possibly find?

Besides, the Huo family has enough money for her to squander for several lifetimes and still have money left over, so what kind of job does she need to find?

Could it be that she thinks he can't afford to support her?
