Chapter 4 Little Puppy
This time Lin Xu really felt a little embarrassed.
Zhou Yan bought the dishes, cooked the meals, and washed the dishes.
He felt a little guilty about eating for free.
But Zhou Yan is an expert at cooking and doesn't need Lin Xu's help.
She even felt that Lin Xu was a bit of a hindrance and kicked him out of the kitchen when he tried to find something to do.
Lin Xu had no choice but to give up and sat in the living room looking at recruitment websites, sending out his resume like casting a wide net.
Just as I was worrying, I turned around and saw someone cooking in the kitchen.
Lin Xu actually used to be quite reluctant to cook.
He always felt that wearing an apron while cooking was not very manly.
But now that this apron is tied on Zhou Yan, Lin Xu feels that he is the ultimate man.
Zhou Yan wore a grey I-shaped vest, which was somewhat slim-fitting and clearly showed off his muscular back lines.
He wore a pair of loose grey sweatpants, with his long legs dangling in the trouser legs.
Whether he is flipping the wok or cutting vegetables, the muscles in his arms tighten with his neat movements, showing his masculinity.
What’s worse is that there is a cigarette between his thin lips.
The image of him holding a cigarette, half-closed his eyes and frowned when the smoke from the pot was thick struck Lin Xu's heart.
Lin Xu felt a little melancholy. If he could live under the same roof with a man like Zhou Yan and remain calm, then he would have achieved success.
It's such a test.
Suddenly the phone vibrated, startling Lin Xu.
Chen Jinhe sent a voice message: [I'm almost there, come down.]
Lin Xu hurriedly muted his phone and turned to look at Zhou Yan.
Fortunately, the range hood was on in the kitchen and Zhou Yan didn't hear anything.
Lin Xu quickly slipped back into the room and called Chen Jinhe back.
"Go back, I won't eat."
Chen Jinhe was so angry that he slammed the brakes and stopped at the side of the road: "What's wrong with you?"
Lin Xu almost forgot about it and said guiltily, "Hey, Zhou Yan bought some groceries after get off work and even took my portion. It would be embarrassing if I just left like that."
"Ah, just stand me up? What do you mean? Are you attracted to your handsome landlord?"
"Absolutely not!" Lin Xu said firmly, "I just thought we'd just met and take this opportunity to get to know each other better. Besides, he said he wanted to make sweet and sour pork!"
That’s authentic sweet and sour pork made by people from Northeast China!
Chen Jinhe's nose was crooked with anger: "I thought I was outshined by the handsome landlord, but I didn't expect it was outshined by the sweet and sour pork."
"Given our relationship, you definitely can't be angry with me." Lin Xu grinned.
"Lin Xu!" Chen Jinhe was so angry that he wanted to pull Lin Xu out and beat him up, "You're just a dog!"
"Woof! Woof woof!" Lin Xu barked a few times without hesitation.
Zhou Yan, who had just walked to Lin Xu's door and was about to knock on it to ask him to come out for dinner, heard the dogs barking.
The raised hand stopped in mid-air and I couldn't help laughing.
How come he didn't know he had a puppy as a roommate?
"Oh~ I'm sorry~ Please forgive me this time~"
Lin Xu's coquettish voice came from the house.
It turned out that he was coaxing his girlfriend.
Because apart from coaxing his girlfriend, Zhou Yan couldn't think of any situation in which a grown man would make such a sweet sound.
A word suddenly came to Zhou Yan’s mind: puppy.
He is handsome, cheerful and sunny, knows how to coax people and act coquettishly, and is quite likable.
Zhou Yan left Lin Xu's door without knocking to disturb him.
Chen Jinhe was still cursing angrily.
Lin Xu noticed that the sound of the kitchen range hood had died down, and thought that Zhou Yan might have finished cooking.
"I won't tell you anymore. Go back first. I'll treat you to a meal with my first month's salary after I find a job."
After saying that, Lin Xu hung up the phone.
Chen Jinhe's eyes widened with anger as he heard the busy tone on the phone.
He thought that since he was already here, he might as well go up to find Lin Xu and see how he and the handsome landlord lived together as a couple.
Maybe I can even have a meal and try how delicious authentic sweet and sour pork is.
But when he turned around and saw the bag worth tens of thousands of dollars that Lin Xu had left for his ex-boyfriend, he gave up the idea.
Forget it, let him go this time.
Lin Xu came out of the house and the food was already on the table.
Because Zhou Yan was waiting for Lin Xu, he didn't eat first, but was tidying up the kitchen.
Lin Xu suddenly became curious.
Why did he break up with his ex-girlfriend?
At least for now, Zhou Yan is handsome, has a good figure, can make money, can cook, loves cleanliness, and has a good temper.
The standard configuration of a good man.
"Sorry, I made a phone call." Lin Xu walked to Zhou Yan and apologized.
Zhou Yan smiled and raised his chin: "Come over and sit down. I'll be ready soon."
Lin Xu swallowed his saliva at the sight of the delicious dishes on the table.
Zhou Yan brought over the bowl and chopsticks: "Eat your chopsticks, don't be polite, these are all home-cooked dishes."
"Your home-cooked meals are so grand."
Sweet and sour pork, braised chicken wings, blanched choy sum, and winter melon soup.
The greatest respect for a person's cooking skills is to eat all the food he cooks.
Lin Xu picked up his chopsticks based on this principle.
The sweet and sour pork with a strong vinegar flavor was crispy and refreshing. The sour taste was not strong in the mouth, and the aroma of meat burst in the mouth. Lin Xu enjoyed it so much that he gave Zhou Yan a thumbs up.
"It's delicious! Much better than what I had in the store!" He said vaguely while chewing with his cheeks puffed out like a little hamster.
Zhou Yan followed suit and laughed: "As long as you like it."
Eating with two people is always more lively than eating alone, and Lin Xu's eating manners make people very appetizing. Zhou Yan unknowingly ate half a bowl of rice more than usual.
He made many kinds of dishes, but the quantity of each one was not large, so the two of them ended up finishing all the dishes.
Lin Xu laughed embarrassedly: "Did I eat too much?"
"Not much. I made it based on the amount for one meal, otherwise it would be difficult to deal with the leftovers."
After Zhou Yan finished speaking, he got up and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
Lin Xu was blocked out of the kitchen again.
Lin Xu looked at Zhou Yan's back as he washed the dishes and felt that he was so manly.
Then he came to a conclusion.
Whether a man is manly or not does not depend on what he does.
It's about his own temperament.
For a real man like Zhou Yan, you won't feel awkward with him even if you give him an embroidery needle.
Therefore, in addition to taking medicine to regulate your body, the first step to becoming a straight man is to change your temperament.
Lin Xu observed Zhou Yan for a while and came up with an idea.
Start by changing your clothing.
Zhou Yan wears a suit and tie to work, and a vest and pajamas when he gets home.
Then I look at my own home clothes, they are so milky and not up to standard.
So, after taking a shower, Lin Xu found a vest he had bought before as an inner layer and put it on, then put on a pair of shorts and went to the balcony to water the flowers.
After Zhou Yan finished cleaning the kitchen and passed by the balcony, he saw Lin Xu sticking her butt out tending to the flowers.
Lin Xu is very thin, with long straight legs. The vest is a bit big, and when she bends down, the hem slides to her back, revealing a part of her slender waist.
A small flying insect landed on it.
He had fair skin, so the black bug was very noticeable.
Zhou Yan walked over and slapped Lin Xu on the lower back.
Lin Xu heard the footsteps and knew it was Zhou Yan, but he didn't expect him to do this to him.
The lower back was Lin Xu's sensitive spot, and he almost jumped up in excitement.
With his face flushed, he covered his lower back and looked back at Zhou Yan.
Zhou Yan opened his palm to show Lin Xu: "Sorry, there's a bug."
