Chapter 62 Pick pick me up
Chu Ran pushed the door open with her shoulder and saw the people sitting in the room. She was stunned for a moment and then panted and said, "You are back."
After saying that, she ran to the kitchen panting, carrying her things. Everyone nodded in surprise. The two men even stared with their eyes wide open, unable to believe that the heavy breathing sound just now came from Chu Ran, who looked so ladylike.
After Chu Ran put everything on the kitchen counter, he shook his sore wrists and arms, then opened the refrigerator and took out a bottle of water. He gulped down the water while walking towards the living room. He collapsed on the sofa and let out a long sigh: "Ah~ It feels so good. I almost died of exhaustion. I really shouldn't have bought so many things..."
She was still mumbling to herself, and the five people beside her were watching her every move in shock. Ning Yan and Yu Yiyang had completely frightened expressions, their mouths slightly open, their eyes staring at Chu Ran without blinking, and some of them began to doubt their lives.
After Dong Jiajia was surprised, a trace of disgust flashed across her eyes for a moment, and she muttered silently "What?", which was fleeting. Then, she glanced at the two men next to her who had not yet recovered from their shock, and the corners of her mouth curled up in complacency, and she laughed to herself in her heart.
Xie Fei should really be allowed to see her vulgar appearance. After seeing this, he will definitely not be deceived by this woman's appearance again. It's a pity that he is not here today.
But it’s not bad either. At least these two saw it. From today on, they probably won’t like Chu Ran as much as before.
Thinking of this, she glanced at the two people beside her again. Seeing them lowering their heads in embarrassment, she felt inexplicably relieved and couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled.
The high-speed camera on the side captured everyone's reactions thoroughly. In later stages, it even replayed the expressions of the two men and Dong Jiajia along with Chu Ran's every move several times. The naughty subtitler also printed everyone's changes on the screen.
It became popular instantly after it was broadcast, and netizens flooded the screen with comments——
"Hahahahaha Miss Chu Ran has a gruff voice and is so straightforward that no one can compare. I'm laughing like a pig, hahahaha"
"What are those two men looking at? This is totally normal, okay? If you're tired, you'll just be breathing heavily!"
"Brother, you have to compensate me for the facial mask. I laughed so hard that I broke!"
"Hahaha, so cute, it's just like another me. The more I look at it, the more I like it. It's real and not pretentious!"
"No one helped me carry the things. Isn't that ungentlemanly?"
"Paralyzed! You're actually paralyzed! You're still recording a show, do you have to be so bold? My brother is single because of his own strength. What would you do without me, Brother Fei~"
"Dong Zhazha is such an excellent actor. His expression changes in an instant. If it weren't for the subtitles, I really wouldn't be able to tell."
"After reading the analysis by the subtitler, I really feel that Bai Lianhua is so scheming. It's scary. Take my Miss Chu Ran away~"
"Sister Xixi is so good, Sister Rou is so gentle, I love her!"
…
Zhou Qian looked at the beads of sweat on Chu Ran's forehead, took out two pieces of paper and handed them to her, and asked, "What did you buy? Why are you so tired?"
Chu Ran smiled gratefully, took the tissue and wiped his sweat while saying, "When I was cleaning the kitchen, I found that the refrigerator was empty, so I went to buy some vegetables and meat for dinner tonight."
"Then you can wait for us to go together. How can you carry so many things by yourself? Look, your hands are all red." Gan Rou took out hand cream from her bag and gently applied it on her.
"It's not heavy, it just feels tight. When I was in school, I once carried a big barrel of mineral water upstairs by myself!" Chu Ran smiled twice with curved eyebrows and a hint of pride in his words.
"Silly!" Zhou Qian poked her forehead, and she and Gan Rou stood up and walked to the kitchen, "It's getting late, I'll go see what you bought and prepare dinner."
"Come together, I have some food I want to eat." Chu Ran said.
We definitely can’t let only girls cook, otherwise we won’t know how much we’ll be scolded after the show airs. We certainly can’t let go of such a good opportunity to perform.
Ning Yan and Yu Yiyang looked at each other and hurriedly followed to the kitchen. Dong Jiajia saw that she couldn't fall behind, so she followed. In this way, six people squeezed into the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Chu Ran and the other two were packing up the things they bought. Zhou Qian picked up the things and looked at what they were, thinking about what dishes to make: "Beef, chicken legs, lettuce, peanuts, pork ribs, potatoes... huh? What are these? Ah, beer, I thought it was a drink."
As she spoke, she looked up at Chu Ran and said with a smile, "Do you like beer?"
Chu Ran touched the back of his neck and smiled shyly: "I quite like it. Beer and fried chicken are really delicious!"
"You bought so much. It seems you can drink quite a lot." Gan Rou, who was standing by, stretched her head to take a look and said in surprise.
"Oh no... I can only drink about three or four cans." Chu Ran's face flushed slightly, "Of course, it's premised on fried chicken and side dishes."
"Three or four cans are not enough. I don't drink a single sip. I feel the taste is weird and I don't like it." Dong Jiajia interrupted while washing rice by the sink.
The kitchen suddenly became quiet, and everyone was stunned. Chu Ran smiled awkwardly and said, "It's okay. I also bought some drinks. I can drink the beer by myself."
Dong Jiajia raised her eyebrows but didn't answer. She just reached out and poked Yu Yiyang who was washing the pot beside her. She bit her lip and blushed as she asked, "How do I tell if there is enough water? Can you teach me?"
Yu Yiyang glanced sideways, then reached his hand into the pot to test the water: "It should be just enough for the water to reach the back of my hand. Look, that's it."
"Wow, so simple, let me try." As she said that, she also reached her hand in, and their skin rubbed against each other faintly twice. Yu Yiyang's hand in the pot trembled slightly, and he turned his head unconsciously to look at Dong Jiajia.
At this moment, Dong Jiajia suddenly raised her head, like a child asking for credit, looked at him with sparkling eyes, and said in a tender voice, "Is that so?"
So...so cute.
Yu Yiyang's heart suddenly became panicked. He responded randomly, withdrew his hand, lowered his head and continued to wash the pot, but his eyes glanced at Dong Jiajia from time to time.
Gan Rou and Yu Yiyang were peeling ginger, onions and garlic at the dining table, Zhou Qian was picking and washing vegetables at the sink, Ning Xian cut the washed vegetables and put them in the basket. After Dong Jiajia finished cooking, she looked around, then rubbed against the sink and said coquettishly, "Sister Qianqian, let me wash the vegetables. You can cook and stir-fry, so I'll leave it to you."
Hearing this, Zhou Qian nodded, handed the potatoes in her hand to her, then took out the pot, filled it with water, and prepared to make soup first.
Dong Jiajia took the potatoes and the peeler, and watched Ning Xian cutting vegetables with sparkling eyes, praising her: "Wow, you cut the vegetables so well."
Ning Yan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Maybe it's because I'm a doctor and I'm more familiar with knives, but I can't cook."
"That's amazing too. Look at all these beautiful pieces."
Ning Yan laughed shyly twice, his hands became more and more fluent, and soon he had finished cutting the vegetables. He turned his head and found that Dong Jiajia had only peeled half of the potato. Her clumsy look made her laugh and cry. He put down the knife and said helplessly, "Let me do it. I'm very skilled at this."
"Well, I really don't know how to use this knife." Dong Jiajia handed the thing to Ning Yan with a smile.
Ning Xian took it and peeled a potato in no time. Dong Jiajia leaned against the table, looked at him with surprise, and exclaimed, "Oh~ amazing!"
"This is very simple, anyone can do it, you praise me so much..." Although Ning Yan said this, she couldn't help but smile.
The two of them were talking and laughing. Yu Yiyang, who was sitting at the table, saw this and suddenly felt unhappy. He kept looking up at the two of them, his feet rubbing on the ground involuntarily. He wanted to go forward but hesitated. After a pause, he finally walked over, coughed and asked, "Do you need any help?"
Looking up and seeing Yu Yiyang, Dong Jiajia immediately pointed to him excitedly, her words full of joy: "Yiyang, look, Ning Xian is so capable, the potatoes are peeled so beautifully, and this vegetable is also cut..."
Ning Yan curled the corners of her lips slightly, and looked up at Yu Yiyang in a very good mood. In an instant, an invisible spark ignited between the two men.
There was a moment of silence in the kitchen, but Chu Ran didn't notice it at all. She was immersed in her own world, looking at the menu, muttering to herself, and carefully looking for seasonings to marinate various meats.
Zhou Qian and Gan Rou keenly noticed the strangeness between the three people over there. They both turned their heads and observed their movements and expressions. Dong Jiajia's excited voice was still echoing in the kitchen.
It's so noisy. Why are there so many words just for peeling the skin?
Zhou Qian rolled her eyes subconsciously. The oil in the pot was ready at that time. She grabbed the chopped lettuce and poured it into the pot. The oil splashed and splattered. Dong Jiajia was startled. She swallowed the words she had not finished saying and dodged to the side with a scream.
Yu Yiyang and Ning Yan looked at her with concern and asked in unison, "What's wrong? Are you okay?"
Dong Jiajia shook her head, pouted aggrievedly, and said, "It's okay, I was just scared."
Ning Yan turned to look at Zhou Qian who was cooking, frowned and said, "Zhou Qian, can't you say something before you cook? You scared Jia Jia."
"I'm not afraid even though I'm so close, so why should I be afraid of her being so far away?" Zhou Qian said without turning her head.
Ning Xian opened his mouth to speak, but Dong Jiajia quickly held him back and said, "Sister Xixi is right. It's my fault. I'm sorry."
"Where did you go wrong..."
"Okay, go and cut the vegetables. It's okay with me." After saying that, she left the kitchen with red eyes.
Ning Yan took a deep look at Yu Yiyang who was protecting her as she left. After a while, she reluctantly cut the remaining vegetables and chased after him.
When this segment was played, netizens were instantly blown away——
"Hahahahaha my sister Chu Ran is really a carnivore. She eats all kinds of meat and drinks. She's so adorable. No wonder all her male friends have become brothers. You should be more careful!"
"I'm a fucking scheming bitch. You said you didn't want to drink on purpose, and you touched my hand on purpose, didn't you? You did it on purpose, didn't you?"
"You are so good at pretending to be innocent. Men are really blind in both eyes and heart. Of course, my brother Fei is an exception. Give a shout out to Brother Fei."
"Dong Bailian is so annoying. She doesn't talk so much. She flirts with men while cooking. She flirts with them one after another. She's really annoying!"
"I like Miss Chu Ran for some reason. She works seriously and doesn't do anything weird. She just focuses on Brother Fei. Great!"
"Sister Xixi is so domineering that she can't scare a white lotus to death! Just say something and she rolls her eyes beautifully!"
"Fuck, she just threw the blame on someone and left. I feel sorry for Sister Xixi. Apart from my brother Fei, no man is good!"

The author has something to say:
Hahahaha, today I accidentally discovered a small shop that specializes in selling the old-fashioned spicy strips that I used to eat in elementary school and junior high school. I bought a big bag and enjoyed it slowly~ In fact, when I was a child, I ate a puffed snack in a pink package. The bag was bulging, and the snacks inside were very thin and short. They tasted crispy. I have been looking for this snack for a long time and couldn't find it. I wonder if there are any cute little people who eat it? Hahaha
Then, I changed the title of the book because my friend said the previous one was not attractive haha~~
