According to custom, on the day of the marriage proposal, she was to personally cook a dish for Zhou Lin to taste her cooking skills.
Xu Yue responded and led Zhou Lin back, asking in a low voice, "Do you like spicy food?"
"It's alright, my family eats spicy food occasionally too," Zhou Lin said softly.
"Okay!" Xu Yue smiled; they had the same taste!
At lunchtime, the men and women of the Xu family sat at separate tables, with a screen separating the two tables.
Xu Yue personally stir-fried a spicy pork and cabbage dish. When the Xu family saw that Xu Yue had made such a spicy dish, they were all shocked. Why did Yueyue make spicy dishes again?

Pfft!
Everyone almost burst out laughing, but fortunately Mr. Wang was quick-witted and said, "Young Master Lu, this dish is not for others to eat. It is a gift from Miss Xu to Young Master Zhou, and it is not for others to eat."
Lu Qian's lips twitched, and he glanced at Zhou Quan. "How come I didn't know there was such a rule?"
Zhou Quan glanced at the dish and nodded slightly. "There should be some, otherwise, would Mr. Wang lie?"
