Looking at the table full of "delicious food", Fu Qingruo and the two little ones were shocked and speechless.
“This…” Fu Qingruo’s hand trembled as she pointed to one of the plates containing something as black as charcoal, “What is this?”
Yi Tianran smiled and said, "Sweet and sour pork ribs! These pieces of meat are so plump! They look very chewy."
Fu Qingruo: "..."
"Mommy, what's this plate—" Huaihuai pointed to another plate with a dazed look. It looked as hard as iron, so let's just call it food.
"Oh, this is Mapo Tofu. I made it extra firm, and it has a unique flavor!" Yi Tianran answered with considerable confidence.
"..." Huaihuai looked like she was questioning the meaning of life.
"What about this?" Geng Geng pointed to a large bowl of soup that was multicolored and looked like it was emitting poisonous smoke.
"This is crucian carp soup, I specially made it, it's very nourishing." Yi Tianran answered every question, and even those she didn't ask about were introduced: "This is pearl meatballs, although they don't look as eye-catching as pearls, the taste is first-class, and there's this one..."
The three of them clutched their chests, staring blankly at the food on the table, when suddenly they realized why the little furball had run away so quickly.
Is this really food that humans can make?
Indeed, no one in this world is perfect!
"Big sister, didn't you want to try my cooking?" Yi Tianran smiled brightly, using serving chopsticks to place a piece of dark, numbing pork rib into her bowl. "Try it!"
Fu Qingruo: "..." Is it too late for me to regret it now?
—I'd rather you blow up the kitchen than endure this!
Before she could come up with a reason to refuse, she heard Yi Tianran suddenly speak up: "You don't actually want to eat, do you? Are you deliberately making fun of me just to see me busy in the kitchen? Is this the kind of person the eldest sister of the Fu family is?"
Fu Qingruo: "..." You've already said everything, what am I supposed to say?!
Yi Tianran smiled and pushed the dish in front of her, "At least try a bite. If you don't like it, we'll think of something else!"
Geng Geng and Huai Huai suddenly felt some sympathy for their aunt, and at the same time felt as if a huge knife was hanging over their heads, ready to fall at any moment.
Just as the atmosphere reached an impasse, a deep, mellow voice rang out: "What happened?"
Fu Yunchen had been handling official business all morning and came back specifically to see if Yi Tianran was causing any trouble, only to discover something was amiss.
Seeing him return, Yi Tianran's eyes lit up. She rushed over to him, wrapped her arm around his, and led him to the dining table, saying with a sweet smile, "Darling, you're back just in time! I just cooked a delicious meal myself, why don't you come and try some?"
Looking at the table full of "delicacies," Fu Yunchen was speechless.
Fu Qingruo was incredibly enthusiastic: "You're finally back! Come and try Miss Yi's cooking. She specially learned how to make it to win you over through your stomach." (A proverb implying a willingness to sacrifice oneself for others.)
Brother, you've come back just in time.
Fu Yunchen: "...I've already eaten."
“It’s okay if you’ve already eaten. Have another bowl of crucian carp soup! You work so hard, you should nourish yourself.” Yi Tianran said, taking the initiative to ladle a bowl of colorful crucian carp soup and bring it to his lips, her eyes full of expectation, “Come on! Open your mouth—I’ll feed you.”
"..." Looking at the still bubbling crucian carp soup, Fu Yunchen's eyelids twitched. He was about to refuse when he saw Yi Tianran suddenly lower her eyes in disappointment. "You don't want to eat it? Do you think I didn't cook it well? I know I don't have any talent in cooking, but I put my heart into it. If you really don't like it, then just throw it away!"
As she finished speaking, she was about to take the bowl away.
Fu Yunchen reached out his large hand, took the porcelain bowl, and said calmly, "I'm actually a little thirsty."
He tilted his head back and drank the crucian carp soup in the bowl clean.
"!!" Geng Geng and Huai Huai looked at their daddy with a mixture of nervousness and admiration. Would they really not die from drinking it??
After finishing the bowl in one gulp, Fu Yunchen placed the porcelain bowl on the table, making a crisp sound that broke the atmosphere in the room.
"How is it? Is it good?" Yi Tianran tilted her head back and asked with bright eyes.
Fu Yunchen remained calm and composed: "Not bad."
Geng Geng and Huai Huai: "!!!"
Fu Qingruo: "???" No way? Little brother, what's wrong with you?! Is there something wrong with your sense of taste?
This must be what they mean by love making people lose their minds!
Yi Tianran had an "I knew it" expression on her face: "I knew it! My food may not look very appealing, but it tastes great."
"Hmm." Fu Yunchen then picked up his chopsticks, took a piece of firm tofu, and brought it to her lips. "Since it tastes good, you should try some too."
Geng Geng: "..." Daddy and Mommy, is this what love means by hurting each other?
"..." Yi Tianran smiled sweetly, opened her mouth and took a big gulp, "Mmm, so delicious!"
"?!" Fu Qingruo's expression froze.
What's going on?
It's impossible for two people to have a problem with their sense of taste at the same time, right?
Isn't it love that makes people lose their minds, or are these dishes really just ugly in appearance but actually delicious?
Driven by curiosity, she subconsciously picked up a piece of dark-colored pork rib and stuffed it into her mouth—
The taste buds were instantly assaulted by a strong flavor, which even rushed straight to the brain.
Fu Qingruo froze on the spot, losing consciousness for more than ten seconds.
—This heartless man and woman are not human!
...
To prevent her adorable child from being harmed by the "highly toxic" food, Fu Qingruo made a decision the moment she regained consciousness: "Your cooking doesn't suit my taste, let's eat out! It's a good opportunity to take the kids out for a trip and fulfill your responsibilities as a mother."
