Chapter 27 A Different Kind of Charm in His Eyes



When Xu Rubao heard that he was going to sue the Xu family, she became anxious. "I...I didn't lie to you, but I only know how to cook some simple home-style dishes. I'm afraid you won't be used to them."

With his big mouth, Uncle Lu has probably eaten countless delicacies; the only problem is that we might not be able to properly cater to his stomach.

Moreover, she hated him; he constantly threatened to sue the Xu family—a devil!

"The ingredients are all in the kitchen, you can decide what to do."

Xu Rubao put down her schoolbag, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Mr. Lu, is there any food you don't eat?"

At the very least, she needs to find out his likes and dislikes; whether or not they suit his taste is another matter. But she shouldn't make dishes he doesn't like, just to be on the safe side.

"No……"

Hearing him say that, Xu Rubao breathed a slight sigh of relief, thinking that he wouldn't be too picky.

Lu Jingheng watched her walk into the kitchen with a slightly nervous expression, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

We can't be too nice to this little wildcat right now.

Otherwise, given her wariness, she might have thought he had ulterior motives towards her.

Of course, he did have designs on her.

In his twenty-eight years of life, Lu Jingheng had never put so much effort into a woman.

To others, she might not be pretty, but to him, she possessed a unique charm.

In the kitchen, Xu Rubao looked at the side-by-side refrigerator that was much taller than her. There was no one else in this villa. Wouldn't it be too wasteful to use such a big refrigerator?

She opened the refrigerator door and was shocked to see it crammed full of food.

She couldn't help but go outside. "Mr. Lu, there's so much food in the refrigerator, are you... are you going to eat it all?"

"No need, you handle it."

Lu Jingheng certainly wouldn't let her know, and he didn't know what she liked to eat either, so he instructed people to prepare as much food as possible.

Xu Rubao thought that since it was just the two of them eating, there was no need to waste too much money, and anyway, he had told her to handle it herself.

It was still early, and seeing that there were pork ribs that looked quite fresh, she decided to make a pork rib and yam soup.

In addition, stir-frying a few more side dishes should be enough to eat.

Lu Jingheng was watching financial news in the living room, and occasionally he would catch a glimpse of that figure busy in the kitchen.

Around seven o'clock, Xu Rubao's five dishes and one soup will be ready.

She placed everything on the table one by one, and after everything was ready, she went over and said, "Mr. Lu, the food is ready, you can eat now."

Lu Jingheng went over and took a look: yam and pork rib soup, stir-fried beef with green peppers, braised fish belly with bamboo shoots, salt and pepper chicken, stir-fried seafood, and baby bok choy in broth.

Xu Rubao watched nervously from the side, afraid that he would be dissatisfied.

Lu Jingheng sat down for a moment, and just as he picked up his chopsticks, he suddenly noticed a cut on her finger.

He frowned slightly and put down his chopsticks.

Xu Rubao was waiting for his verdict, worried that the dishes she had made might not suit his taste.

Seeing that he had even put down his chopsticks, she became even more nervous. "Mr. Lu, are none of these dishes to your liking?"

What happened to your hand?

Xu Rubao glanced at it and stuck out her finger. "It's nothing, I just accidentally cut myself while chopping vegetables."

"There's a first-aid kit in the second cabinet by the door. Go and take care of it yourself."

"ah?"

Xu Rubao didn't react for a moment.

Lu Jingheng originally wanted to treat her wounds himself, but he was afraid that he would frighten her.

Looking at her dazed expression, he couldn't help but sternly say, "Didn't you hear me? Hurry up and go!"
