Fang Jiaxi and Gao Yutong didn't know what Chen Yuling had just said to the people over there, but they had a feeling it wasn't anything nice.
When they arrived, Shen Yingdi and Yan You didn't look too good.
The two felt a pang of anxiety and hurriedly took the unprocessed ingredients from the work surface to wash.
Chen Yuling had been looking for an opportunity to be alone with Lin Chuxia. Seeing her turn and enter the kitchen, she quickly put down what she was doing and followed her in.
Lin Chuxia found the ginger, scallions, and garlic she wanted in the kitchen, but when she turned around, she almost bumped into Chen Yuling, who had been following her.
"Why are you following me?" Lin Chuxia asked, looking at her with confusion.
"I want to apologize to you. I'm sorry, I was wrong before... Can you forgive me and let bygones be bygones?"
Chen Yuling's tone was sincere, and her expression was also very convincing, but a trace of resentment flashed quickly in the depths of her eyes.
Seeing this, Lin Chuxia replied without much thought: "If all harm could be settled with a simple 'I'm sorry,' then criminals would be everywhere in this world."
Chen Yuling retorted, "But in the end, you weren't harmed at all, were you?"
Lin Chuxia was not affected at all in this matter; the one who was truly affected was her.
Lin Chuxia's lips twitched, and her voice deepened: "Although I was not affected in any way, that is not a reason to forgive you."
"So you mean you absolutely have to sideline me?"
Shelving? Lin Chuxia was slightly puzzled, but then she roughly understood whose idea it was. She thought for a moment and said, "I don't have the ability to shelve you. It's probably because your own abilities are not up to par."
After saying that, Lin Chuxia didn't look at her again and walked around her out of the kitchen.
...
After Lin Chuxia came out of the kitchen, she noticed that Chen Yuling hadn't come out for a long time. However, she didn't pay much attention to it.
She didn't care about Chen Yuling's current situation.
You're all adults. If you've done something wrong, you should take responsibility. If you can't even give a basic apology, what face do you have to ask others to forgive you?
...
Perhaps because she had mentally prepared herself inside, when Chen Yuling reappeared in front of everyone, her face showed no trace of her previous disappointment.
By now, everyone had prepared all the necessary ingredients. Seeing this, Chen Yuling smiled and said to Lin Chuxia, "Chuxia, I've heard your cooking skills are on par with a five-star hotel chef. Does that mean we're all in for a treat today?"
That's practically saying, "Early Summer, you can cook later."
Chen Yuling's overly familiar and unceremonious behavior, which led her to boss others around without any regard for others, was something that not only Shen Jianshu and Fang Jiaxi, but even Gao Yutong and Yan You couldn't stand.
"It's not right for Chu Xia to do all the work while we just stand by and watch," Gao Yutong said somewhat awkwardly.
Yan You chimed in, "Exactly! One person cooks, but the whole table eats. How can that be considered teamwork?"
Chen Yuling looked at them with a helpless expression: "But the problem is, are your cooking skills as good as Chuxia's? Among us, Chuxia is probably the best at these kinds of cooking!"
Then, turning to Lin Chuxia, he said in a very intimate tone, "Chuxia, it's just cooking a few dishes. This shouldn't be much work for you, but if you don't want to, that's fine too..."
