She rattled off several dishes in one go, and not a single one was wrong.
Lin Yi and the others were dumbfounded: "No way, sister-in-law, how many times has the boss given you special lessons? You know so well that you can tell just by looking?"
Upon hearing this, Chi Xia gave Li Han a meaningful look and said with a smile, "This has nothing to do with A-Che; the key lies with Li Han."
Lin Yi was even more confused: "I feel like my IQ is trending towards Liu Daniu's, and I feel like it's not enough."
Liu Daniu retorted, "What does this have to do with me?"
Chunli glared at him: "Shut up."
Liu Daniu immediately adopted a well-behaved expression: "Oh."
This action brought a knowing smile to everyone's faces, effectively diverting attention from Li Han's previous actions.
Chi Xia raised an eyebrow at Zhang Xin, smiling without saying a word.
Of these dishes, six were light and six were spicy. Zhang Xin came from Sichuan, so these spicy dishes were undoubtedly carefully prepared for her by Li Han.
Zhang Xin looked up at Li Han and met his affectionate gaze. She quickly looked away and lowered her head.
Apart from Chi Xia, everyone else was trying Han Junche's cooking for the first time and gave it high praise.
Wang Dalong's expression was the most exaggerated. He looked like he was about to cry and said to Han Junche, "Boss, promise me, when Li Han isn't around, don't make us eat instant noodles or compressed biscuits, okay?"
Han Junche glanced at him indifferently: "No."
Wang Dalong, having received the answer, pressed his hand to his chest: "Boss, you've hurt the heart of a pure young man."
The group of people at the table were laughing and joking, enjoying a long-lost lively atmosphere.
Zhang Xin didn't speak, but her eyes were curved in a smile. Li Han watched her carrying the dishes he had specially made for her, and his face was also full of gentle smiles.
After finishing their meal and clearing the table, Qin Zhao suggested playing cards. Since there were many people, they decided to play "Run Fast" (a card game).
Han Junche consciously came to Chi Xia's side and joined her family. Liu Daniu also ran up behind Chunli and said, "I'm family with Lili."
Chunli rolled her eyes at him with obvious disdain: "Don't talk while I'm playing cards, or you'll lower my IQ!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Daniu said "okay" with a wronged expression.
This is how the two of them get along. Although everyone is used to it, they can't help but smile.
Li Han stood silently behind Zhang Xin, who lowered her head and remained silent.
This silence was the best answer for Li Han. He suppressed the elation in his heart and lowered his eyes.
Everyone knew that this silence was hard-won, and even Lin Yi and Wang Dalong, the two lively characters, tactfully refrained from making any jokes.
The game started quickly, but playing cards depends not only on luck, but also on card skills and mental arithmetic.
After a few rounds, Wang Dalong got fed up: "Boss, can't you play by yourself for a while? You and your wife are just rubbing our IQs in the ground!"
Qin Zhao sat on the stool and smiled slightly: "Among this 'us,' please exclude me, thank you!"
"Yes, yes, yes." Wang Dalong nodded helplessly: "Boss Qin, you're not on the same level as us."
As they were chatting and laughing, Lin Yi suddenly looked out the window and said, "It's snowing."
Upon hearing this, everyone looked outside and saw light snowflakes dancing and swirling down, creating a beautiful scene under the streetlights.
"This is the first snow of the year," Qin Zhao said leisurely, looking out the window. "It's quite timely."
