Chapter Eighty-Six: The Violent Goose, Quack!
When Xu Wang came out after changing his clothes, Pei Yanchuan had been waiting at the door for who knows how long. His clothes were rather complicated, so he was the last one to come out.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, let's go to the kitchen together." Xu Wang took Pei Yanchuan's hand and shook it gently.
Pei Yanchuan was overjoyed when he saw Xu Wang take his hand, feeling as if spring had arrived.
The castle's restaurant was very large, fully accommodating the guests and the entire production crew. The production crew also prepared a variety of ingredients and seasonings as requested.
"Director, you're really getting more and more extravagant these days," Xia Yu exclaimed, looking at the ingredients in front of her.
This is a world of difference compared to when the show first started.
The director smiled modestly when he heard Xia Yu's praise, mainly because he had more money now.
Qin Huai nodded in agreement as he looked at the clean and tidy kitchen in front of him, but he froze slightly when he looked at the sinks.
There are four sinks in the kitchen. Two of them are clean and empty, but in one sink, a fish is wriggling and wagging its tail, while in the other sink, several lively swimming crabs are trying to crawl out.
"Are they all alive?" Yunxi also noticed this problem. He curiously poked the fish's tail, and the fish jumped up and down a couple of times.
Xu Wang's eyes lit up as he looked at the fresh meat in front of him. Meat!
Pei Yanchuan noticed Xu Wang's gaze and silently shifted his focus to the vegetables.
[This is a conspiracy, absolutely a conspiracy by the director.]
[Live swimming crabs, and they're not even tied with rope yet! Oh my god, this is going to be tough.]
[This isn't even the worst part. The real problem is when they escape while you're cooking them. Don't ask me how I know, because I just experienced it yesterday. The lid couldn't hold them in at all (sadness overwhelms me)]
[Actor Gu is actually going to cook! (horrified)]
[Huh? Can't Actor Gu do it? (New fan confused).]
[Sisters, you can search for Gu Yingdi's cooking videos; every time he cooks, it's absolutely amazing.]
………………
Seeing his wife frowning, Gu Yunlan suddenly straightened his back and stood in front of her: "I'll do it."
"You can?" Qin Huai expressed his doubt. His wife could burn the pan even when stir-frying vegetables, so he really couldn't imagine what good way she could deal with these lively swimming crabs.
"Don't underestimate me." Gu Yunlan rolled up her sleeves, revealing her forearms, and stood ready to fight the swimming crabs in the tank.
Xia Yu was fully aware of her own cooking skills. Having been a kitchen disaster since childhood, she decided to stick to doing some assistant work.
"Old Hou, what kind of vegetables do you need? I'll help you wash them." Xia Yu walked to Hou Yunqi's side.
"Okay." Hou Yunqi handed the ingredients he had just selected to the other person.
Xia Yu happily began to wash herself slowly.
"Xiao Wang, how about I do it?" Pei Yanchuan said, unwilling to give up, looking at his lover who had already quickly put on his apron.
"No, no, Yan Chuan, just wait to eat." Xu Wang quickly waved his hand to refuse. This wouldn't do. If the other party cooked, three out of the five dishes would be vegetables. He didn't want to eat green vegetables. He wanted to eat meat, and he wanted to eat meat in big chunks!
Pei Yanchuan stood helplessly to the side, but he glanced at the others out of the corner of his eye. Hou Yunqi had prepared a lot of vegetables, so there shouldn't be too much to worry about tonight.
"Yan Chuan, could you help me pick some fresh grapes from the orchard?" Xu Wang, holding a knife in his right hand, felt Pei Yan Chuan's gaze and hesitated to unleash his full power.
“Okay.” Pei Yanchuan nodded without hesitation and turned to leave the kitchen.
The director sent a cameraman along with them.
Xu Wang tiptoed and looked carefully. After confirming that the other person had gone far away, his gaze returned to the big bone in front of him.
Xu Wang smiled.
"Xu Wang, can you cut this bone? Should I ask Lao Hou to cut it for you?" Xia Yu asked with some concern, looking at the large bone in front of Xu Wang.
Upon hearing Xia Yu's words, Hou Yunqi silently put down the kitchen knife in his hand, but before he could turn around, a loud bang came from beside him.
BOOM!!!
The cutting board even shook.
"You can't cut this bone, you have to chop it," Xu Wang said with a smile, looking at the bone that had been cut in half on the dish in front of him.
For a moment, the only sound in the kitchen was Xu Wang's voice; everyone else stared at him blankly.
Gu Yunlan was concentrating on fighting the swimming crab in front of him when the sudden loud noise startled him so much that he stood up instantly, his whole body stiffening.
Gu Yunlan felt like half of his soul had left his body.
Qin Huai pushed up his glasses again to calm his agitated mood.
Xia Yu was closest to Xu Wang, and besides being shocked, she was mostly dumbfounded. Is this... right?
Even Hou Yunqi's usually composed face couldn't help but reveal a hint of other emotions.
Yunxi swallowed hard and silently took two steps back; he was a little flustered.
Jiang Xiubai's eyes widened. So this is what President Pei likes? It's completely different from what his brother predicted. His brother had confidently told him that his brother would definitely like gentle women like him. How is this gentle at all?
"Huh? Why aren't you all saying anything?" Xu Wang raised his cleaver and looked up in confusion.
The cold light reflected from the cleaver swept across his face, making the scene resemble a horror movie.
Everyone couldn't help but take a step back, even the production crew took a step back, and the camera moved a little further away because of this step.
[！！！]
[！！！！！！！]
[It startled me; my phone was on full blast, and I thought something in the house had collapsed.]
[My wife is so powerful and domineering!]
[Is this the strength an omega could possess? It's no exaggeration to say that I, an alpha, am stronger than him! (I'm stunned.)]
[As expected, the omega who managed to win over CEO Pei is no ordinary omega!]
[Xu Wang sharpens his knife: You mess with me? Watch out or I'll chop you up! (smiles)]
[Haha, one slash and one kill, no hesitation (cool).]
………………
When the old master Pei, who was watching the live broadcast at the Pei family's old house, saw this scene, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Haha, look how strong Xiao Wang is! He looks incredibly healthy. Yan Chuan has taken good care of him; he's just like me."
The old butler silently put down the teapot as he watched his master, who was completely on a different wavelength from him. Now he was certain that the eldest young master was just like his master; their double standards and protectiveness were exactly the same.
Xu Wang raised an eyebrow at the crowd, but he didn't dwell on it. He raised the knife in his hand and continued chopping the big bone in front of him.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
The kitchen and orchard scenes in the live stream created a stark contrast.
Pei Yanchuan slowly and carefully selected grapes from the vines with a basket. He had high standards, choosing only the roundest, largest, purplest grapes that had received the most sunlight.
After chopping the bones in front of him, Xu Wang put them aside and then took out a piece of premium pork belly, chopped it into large chunks, and made decorative cuts on it.
After the others had processed their thoughts, they also started doing their own work.
Yunxi was no stranger to the task of processing fish, after all, he was born into a relatively poor family and had helped his parents with chores and taken care of his younger sister when he was young, so he was very skilled at processing fish.
Yunxi handled the matter meticulously, and Jiang Xiubai watched intently from the side.
On the other side of the sink, things weren't so easy. Gu Yunlan frowned as he tried to pick up a crab with his chopsticks, but his chopsticks were clamped tightly by a large pincer as soon as he reached out.
Gu Yunlan subconsciously let go, and the crab arrogantly shook its chopsticks incessantly.
Qin Huai frowned as he watched from the side, wondering what he had believed in him.
"Xiang, trust me." With a great deal of effort, Gu Yunlan shakily picked up a large crab.
Gu Yunlan smiled with satisfaction, but before he could smile for long, the crab suddenly fell from between the chopsticks and landed right next to Jiang Xiubai's feet.
The crab crawled sideways onto Jiang Xiubai's shoes.
Although it wasn't a strong sensation, Jiang Xiubai felt as if he had been electrocuted and started kicking his legs in place.
The crab was kicked right back at Gu Yunlan.
Gu Yunlan's face was filled with terror, as if insects were crawling all over her body, and her whole body twisted in agony.
The crab landed successfully and started running around again.
Seeing this, Xu Wang quickly stretched out his leg and stepped on the crab.
The crab was pinned down by Xu Wang and instantly lost its arrogance, starting to blow bubbles in place.
"Are you alright?" Xu Wang asked without looking up as he processed the pieces of meat in his hands.
"No, it's nothing." Gu Yunlan was completely dumbfounded.
