“Teacher Ye is actually an ordinary person?”
“Ordinary? That doesn’t look like it at all.”
“How could Teacher Ye be an ordinary person?”
Chen Xiaohui asked with more curiosity, “What does Teacher Ye do?”
“Just an office worker,” I replied with a smile.
Hearing this, Chen Xiaohui visibly relaxed.
There were also many discussions in the comments—
“I told you Old Ye couldn’t possibly be an ordinary person.”
“With someone like Chu Xinran, how could she find a husband like Old Ye?”
“What luck does Chu Xinran have?”
“Sister Li is so pitiful; her husband isn’t as good as others’.”
The first task was simple: cooking.
After Ye Wen and I dropped off our luggage upstairs, we headed downstairs.
“What do you want to eat?” he suddenly asked me.
I was taken aback for a moment. “Anything is fine.”
He nodded. “Then come with me to the kitchen.”
I followed him to the kitchen, feeling flattered.
The kitchen was spacious, featuring two cooking stations and a central island.
Chen Xiaohui was wearing a pink apron and holding a cleaver, chopping pig trotters.
Upon seeing me, she hurriedly urged, "Chu Xinran, you go sit in the living room. Dinner will be ready soon."
I waved my hand in refusal. "No need, no need. I'm just sitting here anyway."
Ye Wen, who was tying his apron, paused for a moment and turned to me, saying, "Just keep me company."
I had no choice but to nod.
"Hand me the apron," Ye Wen said.
I took the apron and walked over, standing on my tiptoes to tie it around him.
I couldn't tell if it was because I was too short or he was too tall, but it always felt like I was hugging him.
What a divine scene this was!
Old Ye is really handsome!
Chu Xinran is so lucky!
This luck is just too good!
Old Ye dotes on her so much!
I'm really envious of Chu Xinran.
Old Ye! Look at me!
Everyone clear out! Old Ye is mine!
The comments section exploded.
After all, he was the national heartthrob!
"How did he become my husband?"
Ye Wen skillfully handled the ingredients.
I watched from the side.
"Do you often cook at home?" Chen Xiaohui asked me.
I smiled awkwardly, "Not really..."
Chen Xiaohui wore a somewhat proud expression, "In our house, it's always Old Li who cooks, but I get up at five every morning to make porridge for him."
I was a bit surprised, "Five in the morning?"
"Yeah, Old Li is very busy with work," Chen Xiaohui said.
Ye Wen turned to me and asked, "Do you want sweet and sour ribs or braised ribs?"
I replied, "Either is fine."
He remained expressionless, "Alright, then we'll have braised ribs."
I was left speechless.
Noticing my silence, Ye Wen turned to me again, "What's wrong?"
I shook my head, "Nothing."
He chuckled softly and handed me an onion, "Do you want to learn how to cook?"
I said, "Just a little."
So Ye Wen taught me how to make salmon rice while handling the other ingredients.
I must say, he is really impressive!
I listened intently.
Noticing my daze, Ye Wen paused his movements and asked, "What are you daydreaming about? Recite the recipe I just told you."
I snapped back to reality. "Ah? Oh..."
"Did you not remember?" He raised an eyebrow.
I smiled awkwardly.
He set down the spatula and walked over to me. "Chu Xinran, let’s have a little review session."
I laughed and pushed him away. "Stop it."
In the comments, many people were typing—
[Review session, hahaha!]
[How does Chu Xinran manage to be so unfocused?]
[Old Ye is too indulgent!]
We quickly finished our task.
The salmon rice was simple to make and tasted quite good.
Chen Xiaohui and Old Li were a bit slower.
The full banquet was quite intimidating just to look at.
