Chen Ming walked to the kitchen, "Manman, you should have called me. We agreed that I would cook during this time."
This was also the result of his discussion with everyone during breakfast. In order not to eat and live for free, he took care of all the cooking and housework during his stay here.
"Seeing you were so engrossed in your reading, I didn't have the heart to disturb you, so I just did it for the right reason. Okay, don't worry, I'll definitely call you next time."
Chen Ming couldn't control himself when he ate the authentic Chinese food made by his cousin again. After Xu Manman finished eating, he cleared the remaining rice in the pot and the dishes on the table.
After dinner, before clearing the table, Chen Ming asked Xu Manman, "When does Caleb usually come back? What would you like for dinner?"
"He'll be home before six, and there's plenty of food in the fridge. Feel free to make dinner, cousin. Hmm...give the foreigner some top-notch authentic Chinese food."
Although Caleb is not a foreigner, Xu Manman believes that even if Chen Ming makes a simple dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, he will be able to conquer a crowd of people.
Chen Ming couldn't help laughing, "Hey, can Caleb handle spicy food?"
"Sure, he's not picky about food, he eats everything."
Chen Ming nodded, stood up and went to the refrigerator to check the ingredients. He already had an idea of what dishes he would cook in the evening.
At half past five, Caleb King was already home.
Because of Chen Ming's arrival, all the black technology in the house was turned off, so even if Chen Ming closed the door of the Chinese kitchen when cooking, the house was still filled with an overbearing smell of food.
The first thing he did when he got home was to say hello to Xu Manman. After going back to his room and changing into home clothes, Caleb Jin came to the kitchen.
"It smells so good, Micah, what delicious food are you making?"
Chen Ming kept moving his hands as he read out the menu. "I made braised pork, spicy chicken wings, stewed pork ribs with potatoes, mapo tofu, garlic eggplant, and fish ball soup. Two of the dishes are a bit spicy, I wonder if you can handle them."
"I'm not picky about food, and Molly often makes spicy Chinese food. The chili in Chinese food is very attractive."
This was the first time Chen Ming had heard such an adjective. He smiled and said, "Then eat more later. Dinner will be served soon. It's very fumy here. You should go out and have a rest. You've been busy all day."
To be honest, Chen Ming thinks that the range hood in this kitchen is really a good thing. It sucks away the fumes as soon as they come out, and will not make the kitchen dirty at all.
After Caleb came out, he was not idle. He opened the refrigerator and took out a bunch of fruits such as lemons, watermelons, grapes, etc., and made a large pot of fruit tea. After it was done, he put it in the refrigerator to chill and wait to drink it after dinner.
Xu Manman lay on the edge, and the sweetest part in the middle of the cut watermelon basically went into her stomach.
"By the way, Caleb, if you have nothing to do later, you can teach your cousin how to use the computer in the study."
Xu Manman just remembered this. A person who studies computer language stayed in the study for a whole day and a night, but didn't even think of touching the computer. He held a fairy tale book all day long. Isn't that a waste of time?
Chen Ming was not unwilling to touch it. He thought that it should be Caleb's thing. Moreover, he studied computer science, so he naturally knew that things were very expensive nowadays. If it was broken, it would cause trouble for his cousin. So he just read the book quietly.
During the meal, Caleb expressed his admiration for Chen Ming's cooking skills at the right time. To express his gratitude, he offered to teach him how to use his computer. Chen Ming was very tempted but refused. After a wink from his cousin, he followed suit.
Xu Manman, who had nothing to do, continued to stay in the living room and watch TV. She was not watching the TV in front of her. From a perspective that Chen Ming could not see, there was a super large system screen in front of her, which was showing Xu Manman's favorite science fiction blockbuster.
In fact, there is a computer lab in the school, which can be rented for $5 for an hour. Chen Ming only spends money to go to the lab when he is doing homework. Now, touching the all-in-one computer that Caleb said can be used at any time, Chen Ming's hands are shaking with excitement.
After Caleb explained how to use it, he stopped disturbing him and went back to the kitchen to get out the iced fruit tea. He first brought a cup of iced fruit tea to Chen Ming in the study, and then brought two cups of ice-free fruit tea to the living room. He sat on the sofa with Xu Manman on either side, watching the big movie on the system screen.
Although it thinks these so-called sci-fi blockbusters are incredibly stupid, it can't help but feel that its host likes them, so what else can it do? Just accompany them.
After the movie ended, Xu Manman was waiting to see the Easter eggs. It was almost ten o'clock. She went back to her room to wash up, and came to the study to see Chen Ming still sitting in front of the computer with shining eyes.
