Chapter 628: Foster Brother (30)
He was also extremely curious: had this young lady truly changed, or was it all a lie? If it was a lie, how could she have fooled the extremely intelligent Gu Liu and even made him lower his guard? This young lady was no simpleton; he had never realized she had such skill before! Could it be that she had been acting all along?
For the rest of the day, Wen Wan was in a daze, as if she were floating on a cloud or drowning in the sea. The events that happened in the office during the day kept flashing through her mind. At that moment, her heart was pounding wildly, which made it clear to Wen Wan that she had heard something.
She didn't seem to be completely unaffected.
I think I'm starting to feel a little tempted.
System: [Now that you've thought it through, then do your best to save this marriage. Rewrite the script, and let the male lead play a game of arranged marriage turning into love, a childhood sweetheart relationship that blossoms into a happy ending.]
"This is not a game."
If Wen Wan likes someone, she will pursue them. If she succeeds, it will be a lifelong commitment. However, if the other person is a jerk, Wen Wan will let go decisively.
When in love, they give their all; when out of love, they let go with exceptional grace.
"Then I need to make a good plan."
So Wen Wan spent the whole night frantically taking notes. After all, she understood the theory, but putting it into practice was a first for her, and she had to be well-prepared before she could get on.
She left early the next morning to shoot for the magazine, and after the shoot, she told her agent that she wanted to take a month off and wouldn't accept any work.
The agent asked, "Why? You've finally managed to improve your reputation. If you don't take on any work for a long time, even casual fans will leave."
"Is my job more important or my future happiness?"
Chen Jie: "What do you mean by that? What does this have to do with your future happiness?"
Wen Wan: "I've made up my mind, I'm going to pursue Gu Liu."
Chen Jie: "!!!"
"What did you say?" The manager looked at his artist in shock. "Say it again. I think I heard something terrible. Who are you going to pursue?"
"Gu Liu".
Chen Jie slapped Wen Wan on the shoulder. "Goodness, what made you suddenly see the light? How did you come to this conclusion? Did you really fall for Gu Liu? Or is it just for the sake of inheriting the family business?"
Wen Wan: "Isn't it good enough for me to receive a monthly dividend? Why bother inheriting a family business? Are you going to work me to death? I'll just retire from the entertainment industry then, what do you think?"
"You can't leave the industry. I've finally managed to bring you to the top. If you leave, my reputation as a top agent will be completely ruined because of you. What career aspirations will I have left?"
"Since you have this idea, I naturally won't object. However, it's impossible for you not to work for a month. I will reduce your workload and do some live streams for your fans from time to time. After all, it's not easy for them to like you."
Wen Wan: "Alright, anyway, you definitely won't stop me from pursuing happiness, right, brother?"
Chen Jie: "..."
Is he such a bad person?
Furthermore, they even felt that if their own artist could truly settle down with President Gu, that would be absolutely wonderful, a stroke of good fortune, much better than being a lapdog for trash like Qi Mingsen.
The first step in pursuing someone is to cook them a delicious meal.
And when they thought of live streaming, they actually started a live stream.
Fans flooded into the live stream and saw that their sister was actually preparing a kitchen live stream. They had prepared a lot of compliments, after all, their sister was a walking top-notch cookbook when she was on a wilderness survival show. She must know how to cook and be very good at cooking. However, they deleted the compliments after only a few were posted.
The reason is that Wen Wan is preparing to make braised fish, and the first step is to kill the fish, as freshly killed fish is the only way to ensure freshness.
He knows the recipes by heart.
But what she did was terrifying. The fish, which she thought was dead after she chopped it in the neck, actually jumped up and landed on the ground, almost scaring Wen Wan so much that she dropped the knife.
The aunt knocked on the door and asked, "Miss, do you need any help?"
Wen Wan shouted, "No need, I can do it myself."
The aunt was extremely worried and immediately called Mr. Gu. What if the young lady burned down the kitchen? It wouldn't be a big deal if the kitchen burned down, but it would be terrible if the young lady got hurt.
When Gu Liuyi received the call, he was shocked that the young lady had suddenly started cooking, and he was also genuinely worried.
Those who never lift a finger in the kitchen, lest they actually burn it down.
So, for the first time, the dedicated CEO Gu left early, shocking the employees, who all discussed what urgent matter had happened to him.
Wen Wan picked up the fish, cleaned out all the internal organs, and scraped off the scales. She was a normal person, after all, and wouldn't leave the fish scales untouched. She threw away the fish head because she always thought fish heads were terrifying, especially the eyes.
Then I started putting oil in the pan and tested the temperature several times by holding my hand above the pan.
"Fish at 70% heat? Soon."
The fans went crazy.
—Sister, it's too hot here. Wipe the fish dry first, otherwise it will splatter oil.
—Sister, be careful, hurry up and put it down, the oil is smoking, turn off the heat first.
Wen Wan reached out and threw the fish into the pot. In an instant, the oil splattered and popped. Wen Wan was stunned and backed away. The sound was terrifying.
"Miss, let me come in and help."
Wen Wan: "No need, I can manage."
—Qianqian, do you want to let your housekeeper into the kitchen? I'm worried you'll burn the kitchen down.
—Is this the legendary theoretical master but practical novice? How can someone talk so eloquently but end up causing a complete disaster?
Finally, Wen Wan took the pot lid and went over. She flipped the fish over, and it burned.
Wen Wan couldn't think of any recipes, so she just poured a ladle of water in. "I didn't mess it up. This is boiled fish. I'm going to make boiled fish."
Wen Wan also explained to her fans.
fan:"……"
What should I do? My idol seems a bit silly. Is she the same person who was previously accused of being scheming and manipulative?
This is absolutely a huge misunderstanding.
Wen Wan added some salt and a spoonful of chili pepper. Seeing that the color was a bit light, she added another spoonful. Finally, the whole pot of soup turned red before the color stopped.
audience:"……"
This is truly a culinary disaster; it's terrifying to see such a culinary monstrosity appear before my eyes.
This is definitely not for personal consumption. If someone else were to eat this, they would die.
After that, Wen Wan fried an egg, and the audience watched as she burned one side of it. Finally, she made two side dishes. Theoretically, she was first-class, but in practice, she was -100. It was terrifying.
The last table of dishes, which could only be described as culinary disasters, left netizens and fans dreading it.
At that moment, Gu Liu arrived home.
"What's wrong with Auntie?"
“Mr. Gu, Miss insisted on cooking herself. She was alone in the kitchen and locked the door. There was also a strange smell.”
"Open the door."
Before the auntie could open the door, Wen Wan opened it herself upon hearing Gu Liu's voice. "Brother, you're back just in time. I just finished making everything. Have a taste."
