Chapter 816: The Faded Actress (26)
Then Gu Yuan started cooking for Wen Wan every day. Even her manager, Yuan Ya, found out and started preparing her wedding gift money. It seemed that her artist was really going to fall in love this time. She would have to do a good job of public relations, since she was still at the peak of her career. Nobody knew what might happen.
Although the two haven't officially made it public, everyone around them can tell that the atmosphere between them is unusual.
A few days later.
Suddenly, Qi Ming called, saying that he had invited her and Gu Yuan to a dating reality show, but Wen Wan refused him firmly.
He hasn't even won her over yet.
She needed to find an opportunity to win him over first, so she thought of cooking a meal for Gu Yuan herself. The system's first reaction upon learning of her idea was to stop her.
However, it still failed to stop its own host.
I don't know where that confidence comes from.
The next day, I got up early to prepare breakfast.
When Gu Yuan arrived, he smelled a burning odor and thought the house was on fire.
Looking at the black, lumpy objects in the plate in front of me, I wondered, "What is this?"
Wen Wan: "Don't let its appearance fool you, it's definitely edible."
Gu Yuan: "..."
"Didn't you do your own thing?"
Wen Wan shook her head. "I've already eaten. You should try some."
How could she possibly eat that? She bought the ingredients, failed countless times, and only now is she able to make a decent dish.
Gu Yuan smiled and took a bite of the black fried egg.
How does it taste?
Gu Yuan nodded. "It doesn't look very appealing, but it tastes pretty good."
"I told you it would be delicious, so hurry up and eat it."
With the next bite, Gu Yuan's expression froze.
"What's wrong?"
Gu Yuan: "The eggshell wasn't cleaned properly."
Wen Wan's eyes widened. "Then let's not eat eggs. Let's eat something else. Other things are delicious too."
Embarrassing, but she really didn't know she had put eggshells inside the eggs.
Gu Yuan praised Wen Wan while eating, but his expression was somewhat ferocious, though Wen Wan didn't notice at all.
The system watched this scene and sighed, "As expected of the male lead, he really is a ruthless person."
To be able to swallow such a bizarre dish without batting an eye is truly the epitome of being love-struck.
After finishing his meal, Gu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'll cook for you every day from now on. I'll cook lunch and dinner too."
Gu Yuan: "..."
"No need, I can do these."
"Yes, you've been cooking for me all this time, so I have to repay you. Besides, I don't have much to do every day, and I happen to be interested in cooking now; I do have a talent for it."
Gu Yuan: "Then thank you, Sister Lin Xi."
...
At noon, chaos erupted and the kitchen nearly burned down. Gu Yuan ate without batting an eye, praising the food as he ate. To prevent Wen Wan from eating his cooking, Gu Yuan snatched all the food from her and made a portion for her himself.
The reason is that if you make it for me, I'll make it for you too.
Wen Wan viewed it as a stage for cultivating feelings and did not object.
Two days after eating it, Gu Yuan went straight to the hospital, his face pale with pain. After examination, the doctor diagnosed him with food poisoning and a recurrence of his stomach ailment.
"Food poisoning? How could there be food poisoning?"
Doctor: "Think about what spoiled food he ate in the past few days."
Wen Wan: "Impossible. I cooked every single meal. They were definitely not expired."
In the end, Gu Yuan was hospitalized.
The system really didn't want its host to remain in the dark any longer. [Host, is it possible that your cooking was just too bad? So…]
"Impossible. Gu Yuan said it was delicious, and I made it according to your recipe. It's absolutely impossible for it to be bad."
System: [Why don't you try the taste yourself next time?]
Wen Wan didn't believe it, so she went home and cooked a meal for herself.
Then I vomited after the first bite, and when I ate other dishes, I would spit out a bite after a bite.
The taste was bizarre and varied, almost like poison.
The system asked with a smile, "Host, how does it taste?"
"Why didn't you remind me sooner? If you had, I wouldn't have let Gu Yuan eat it."
It turns out that Gu Yuan was admitted to the hospital because of the food he cooked.
"Then why does he keep eating it? He keeps saying it's delicious, keeps trying to take it from me, and always finishes it all. Does he have no sense of taste?"
System: [I don't know, you can ask around.]
At the hospital.
When Gu Yuan woke up, his agent was in the hospital room.
Yuan Ya: "How did you end up in the hospital? Take good care of yourself and don't push yourself too hard."
Gu Yuan: "I'm fine. Where's Sister Lin Xi?"
"As soon as you wake up, look for President Lin. President Lin asked me to take care of you."
Wen Wan arrived quickly.
Then, upon opening the lunchbox, Gu Yuan glanced at the contents and asked, "Did you buy this from outside?"
Wen Wan: "Yes, this place is delicious. I've tried it myself, and it's good for your stomach, so you can eat it without worry."
"Sister Linxi, my illness has nothing to do with you; it's because I ate some other irritating food."
Wen Wan: "Do you think saying that will make me happy?"
Gu Yuan: "Sister Lin Xi, I didn't..."
Wen Wan looked at Gu Yuan and said, "I've never been good at cooking. I thought it would be better if I followed the recipe, and you said it was delicious, so I thought I'd make it for you. But I didn't expect you to be lying to me. It tastes so bad, why did you keep eating it? I'm not touched, I just think you're stupid."
Yuan Ya quickly left the room.
She didn't want to be there when the couple was arguing; this was a nuclear-level situation, and she couldn't stay there for even a moment.
"I'm sorry, I just didn't want to disappoint Sister Linxi. I didn't force her. I'm very happy to eat the food that Sister Linxi cooked herself."
"You can cook next time, but this is a one-time exception."
Gu Yuan: "Mm."
After that, Wen Wan really didn't touch the kitchen again and focused on ordering takeout.
Two weeks later, Gu Yuan was fully recovered and could be discharged from the hospital. During this time, the hospital was leaked to the public, and fans were very worried when they learned that Gu Yuan had been hospitalized.
Yuan Ya simply went live and had Gu Yuan comfort the fans.
When asked about the reason, Gu Yuan proudly said that Sister Lin Xi cooked for him personally.
Gu Yuan's fans: "..."
So you've already gotten food poisoning, what's with that proud and happy look on your face?
Do you love her that much?
Fans were shocked by the absurd reason: he was so love-struck that he ate his wife's terrible cooking and ended up in the hospital with food poisoning.
Since nothing serious had happened, the fans started teasing Gu Yuan.
This incident went viral and caused countless people to laugh. Gu Yuan, who usually seemed like an unattainable beauty, turned out to be a love-struck fool. Such a contrast! He's got a death wish.
Wen Wan was unaware that Gu Yuan was live-streaming until the old man reminded her with a phone call. He also told her to treat Gu Yuan well, that she knew her own cooking skills were limited, and that he was her only grandson-in-law, so she shouldn't ruin things, otherwise the old man would be really angry. Wen Wan was extremely embarrassed after hearing this and promised that she would never cook for Gu Yuan again before he let her off the hook.
