Chapter 96 Mr. Wen, just spoil her! [17]
Lin Huixin then realized that she hadn't managed her facial expressions well.
She quickly composed herself and said with a smile, "Oh, I'm so surprised! I didn't expect you to be willing!"
"Then come with me to room number two. We're going to cook there."
Lin Huixin also wanted to invite Wen Yue and the others to room number three, but room number three was really too simple.
Although Room 2 also had a wood-fired stove, at least the kitchen was relatively spacious and bright.
Wen Yue said calmly, "Come to room number one. The kitchen here is spacious and there's a gas stove."
Lin Huixin was surprised and envious when she heard that there was even a gas stove in room number one.
Wow! Room number one is amazing!
"Alright, I'll go to room number two and call them over now!"
After Lin Huixin finished speaking, she extended an invitation to A Chu: "Miss Li, would you like to come with me to call them?"
Achu shook her head and refused: "I'm not going."
Lin Huixin looked disappointed, but quickly smiled again: "Okay, then I'll go by myself."
After Lin Huixin left, Wen Yue turned around and went back to the kitchen to prepare the ingredients.
Achu leaned against the kitchen window, watching him.
Wen Yue always had a serious expression no matter what he did; even when he was just handling ingredients, it was as if he were running a multi-million dollar business.
As Ah Chu watched, she took out her phone and snapped several photos when he wasn't looking.
Wen Yue looked up when he heard the shutter sound.
Ah Chu took another picture.
Wen Yue raised an eyebrow: "Were you taking pictures of me secretly?"
Ah Chu put away her phone, raised her chin, and said matter-of-factly, "What do you mean by taking pictures secretly? I was taking pictures openly and honestly, okay?"
After she finished speaking, she turned and left without waiting for Wen Yue to reply.
Wen Yue peeked out and saw that A Chu had returned to the recliner under the grape trellis and was lounging around.
She seemed to be looking at the photos she had just secretly taken of him, a slight smile playing on her lips.
Wen Yue kept his head down and continued processing the ingredients, unaware that the corners of his lips were also turned up.
Room number two wasn't far from room number one. About ten minutes later, voices could be heard coming from outside the courtyard gate.
It's Jiang Mingzhu and her group.
Achu got up from the recliner again, and Wen Yue also came out of the kitchen.
Everyone greeted each other, and then the outgoing Jiang Mingzhu and Chen Yu thanked A Chu and the others with great gratitude.
After all, it's clear that the couple benefited from sharing a meal.
Achu waved her hand generously: "It's okay, I'm not the one cooking anyway."
Jiang Mingzhu laughed; she quite liked A Chu's straightforward and unpretentious manner.
She saw that Achu looked clean and fresh, without even wearing makeup.
But Ah Chu's natural beauty is not diminished by her bare face; on the contrary, she looks even younger and fresher.
Jiang Mingzhu couldn't help but exclaim, "Li Yang, you're so beautiful! You're so pretty even without makeup. If you debuted, you'd cause so many female celebrities to experience face-worship anxiety!"
Ah Chu's expression was originally cold and indifferent, but after being praised like that, she couldn't suppress her smile.
She smiled, revealing her white teeth, and her eyes crinkled slightly.
"Thank you to my parents for giving me such natural beauty. Mingzhu, you're beautiful too! Even more beautiful than on TV!"
Jiang Mingzhu laughed.
Lin Huixin also chimed in: "You two are the prettiest! To be honest, I'm a little embarrassed to be in the same frame as you. I'm really outshone if I don't rely on my looks."
A Chu didn't speak, but Jiang Mingzhu said with a smile, "Not at all, Xin Xin, you have both good looks and talent, and you're beautiful and have a sweet voice."
Lin Huixin waved her hands repeatedly: "I can't compare, I can't compare."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Alright, let's stop praising each other and start preparing lunch!"
The group went into the kitchen together.
The kitchen in room number one is really big; in addition to a double gas stove, there is also a wood-burning stove.
Everyone envied A Chu and Wen Yue.
Wen Yue, Jiang Mingzhu, and Lin Huixin were in charge of cooking.
Even in front of the live broadcast cameras, Chen Yu and Li Xuanang were busy helping out in the kitchen.
As for Ah Chu, she was perfectly content with her leisure time.
Wen Yue wouldn't ask her for help; he would be grateful as long as she didn't cause trouble.
Ah Chu got bored outside, so he went into the kitchen to take a look.
She leaned closer to Wen Yue for a look, then leaned closer to Jiang Mingzhu for a look.
Lin Huixin glanced at A Chu, then suddenly asked with a smile, "Li Yang, do you want to wash this vegetable? You're just wandering around aimlessly."
Upon hearing this, Ah Chu went over and glanced at the vegetables that Lin Huixin had said she wanted to wash.
It's spinach, it looks very fresh, and there's still a lot of soil left at the roots.
She frowned in disgust: "How dirty!"
Lin Huixin felt that Ah Chu was going to refuse.
She smiled and said, "It is a bit dirty, but I heard that it was grown by the villagers themselves and is very healthy."
Lin Huixin waited for A Chu to refuse to help; how could such a pampered young lady like her be willing to touch vegetables that had been soiled?
She could imagine how many viewers in the live stream would dislike Achu.
At this moment, the viewers in the live broadcast room all thought that Achu would refuse.
Bullet comments:
[How could Miss Li possibly be willing to help wash vegetables! Look at the look of disgust on her face.]
【What do you mean by helping wash the vegetables? It's like she doesn't eat them herself!】
[That's right, everyone's busy in the kitchen. Even Chen Yu and Li Xuanang, who can't cook, are helping out, but she's just sitting around doing nothing.]
[If that's the case, then Chairman Wen's work is equivalent to that of two or three people. He's Li Yang's husband, so shouldn't Li Yang be entitled to enjoy his services?]
[...]
Under Lin Huixin's expectant gaze, Achu spoke up: "Okay! Watch me wash all this dirty mud clean!"
As she spoke, she put down her phone with great interest and came over.
Lin Huixin didn't expect Ah Chu to act unpredictably, and for a moment her facial expressions failed her.
She's not a professional actress, so it's inevitable that she'll sometimes lose control of her expressions under the live camera.
So much so that some viewers noticed something was wrong.
Live stream chat:
[Am I just imagining things? Lin Huixin seemed quite disappointed after Li Yang agreed to help wash the vegetables?]
I thought I was the only one who sensed something was wrong.
[Just a conspiracy theory: Could she be waiting for Li Yang to reject her, so the audience will criticize Li Yang?]
I've always felt that Heidi Lin is fake and loves to act.
[I instinctively dislike Lin Huixin.]
Are you guys out of your minds? Can you please stop over-interpreting other people's expressions?
[Xin Xin simply didn't expect Li Yang to agree to help wash the vegetables; there was nothing special about it.]
Some people just can't stand to see others do well!
[...]
Over here, Ah Chu ignored Lin Huixin's out-of-control expression and started washing the spinach.
Her movements while washing vegetables were clumsy, yet meticulous.
She spent a long time washing a basket of spinach.
Wen Yue came to see her.
Ah Chu held up her cleaned spinach to show him, looking rather smug and seeking praise: "Look! Didn't I wash it super clean?"
Wen Yue looked at her like a child, and the corners of his lips unconsciously turned up.
"Yes, it's very clean."
Ah Chu snorted twice: "You're in for a treat today, getting to eat spinach that I personally washed."
Wen Yue couldn't help but laugh and replied, "Yes, yes, I'm really lucky to have such a delicious meal."
Viewers in the live stream couldn't help but flood the chat with comments: 【Haha! Mr. Wen, just keep spoiling her!】
